2017-12-11torture: Eliminate torture_runnable and perf_runnablePaul E. McKenney1-1/+1
The purpose of torture_runnable is to allow rcutorture and locktorture to be started and stopped via sysfs when they are built into the kernel (as in not compiled as loadable modules). However, the 0444 permissions for both instances of torture_runnable prevent this use case from ever being put into practice. Given that there have been no complaints about this deficiency, it is reasonable to conclude that no one actually makes use of this sysfs capability. The perf_runnable module parameter for rcuperf is in the same situation. This commit therefore removes both torture_runnable instances as well as perf_runnable.

2017-12-11torture: Reduce #ifdefs for preempt_schedule()Paul E. McKenney1-0/+6
This commit adds a torture_preempt_schedule() that is nothingness in !PREEMPT builds and is preempt_schedule() otherwise. Then torture_preempt_schedule() is used to eliminate several ugly #ifdefs, both in rcutorture and in locktorture. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2016-08-22torture: TOROUT_STRING(): Insert a space between flag and messageSeongJae Park1-1/+1
The TOROUT_STRING() macro does not insert a space between the flag and the message. In contrast, other similar torture-test dmesg messages consistently supply a single space character. This difference makes the output hard to read and to mechanically parse. This commit therefore adds a space character between flag and message in TOROUT_STRING() output.

This commit breaks torture_online() and torture_offline() out of torture_onoff() in preparation for allowing waketorture finer-grained control of its CPU-hotplug workload. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2014-09-17torture: Address race in module cleanupDavidlohr Bueso1-1/+2
When performing module cleanups by calling torture_cleanup() the 'torture_type' string in nullified However, callers are not necessarily done, and might still need to reference the variable. This impacts both rcutorture and locktorture, causing printing things like: [ 94.226618] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_writer task [ 94.226624] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_stats task Thus delay this operation until the very end of the cleanup process. The consequence (which shouldn't matter for this kid of program) is, of course, that we delay the window between rmmod and modprobing, for instance in module_torture_begin().

2014-09-08rcu: Use pr_alert/pr_cont for printing logsJoe Perches1-1/+1
User pr_alert/pr_cont for printing the logs from rcutorture module directly instead of writing it to a buffer and then printing it. This allows us from not having to allocate such buffers. Also remove a resulting empty function. I tested this using the parse-torture.sh script as follows: $ dmesg | grep torture > log.txt $ bash parse-torture.sh log.txt test $ There were no warnings which means that parsing went fine.

2014-05-14torture: Check for multiple concurrent torture testsPaul E. McKenney1-1/+1
The torture tests are designed to run in isolation, but do not enforce this isolation. This commit therefore checks for concurrent torture tests, and refuses to start new tests while old tests are running. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2014-02-23rcutorture: Stop generic kthreads in torture_cleanup()Paul E. McKenney1-2/+0
The specific torture modules (like rcutorture) need to call torture_cleanup() in any case, so this commit makes torture_cleanup() deal with torture_shutdown_cleanup() and torture_stutter_cleanup() so that the specific modules don't have to deal with these details.

2014-02-23rcutorture: Abstract torture_stop_kthread()Paul E. McKenney1-0/+3
Stopping of kthreads is not RCU-specific, so this commit abstracts out torture_stop_kthread(), saving a few lines of code in the process. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
2014-02-23rcutorture: Abstract torture_create_kthread()Paul E. McKenney1-1/+7
Creation of kthreads is not RCU-specific, so this commit abstracts out torture_create_kthread(), saving a few tens of lines of code in the process. This change requires modifying VERBOSE_TOROUT_ERRSTRING() to take a non-const string, so that _torture_create_kthread() can avoid an open-coded substitute. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2014-02-23rcutorture: Fix rcutorture shutdown racesPaul E. McKenney1-1/+2
Not all of the rcutorture kthreads waited for kthread_should_stop() before returning from their top-level functions, and none of them used torture_shutdown_absorb() properly. These problems can result in segfaults and hangs at shutdown time, and some recent changes perturbed timing sufficiently to make them much more probable. This commit therefore creates a torture_kthread_stopping() function that does the proper kthread shutdown dance in one centralized location. Accommodate this grouping by making VERBOSE_TOROUT_STRING() capable of taking a non-const string as its argument, which allows the new torture_kthread_stopping() to pass its "title" argument directly to the updated version of VERBOSE_TOROUT_STRING().

The torture_shuffle() function forces each CPU in turn to go idle periodically in order to check for problems interacting with per-CPU variables and with dyntick-idle mode. Because this sort of debugging is not specific to RCU, this commit abstracts that functionality. This in turn requires abstracting some additional infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2014-02-23rcutorture: Abstract torture_shutdown_absorb()Paul E. McKenney1-0/+15
Because handling races between rmmod and normal shutdown is not specific to rcutorture, this commit renames rcutorture_shutdown_absorb() to torture_shutdown_absorb() and pulls it out into then kernel/torture.c module. This implies pulling the fullstop mechanism into kernel/torture.c as well. The exporting of fullstop and fullstop_mutex is ugly and must die. And it does in fact die in later commits that introduce higher-level APIs that encapsulate both of these variables. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
