* rcutorture: Gracefully handle NULL cleanup hooksPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | Although most torture tests will have some cleanup hook, it is possible that one might not. This commit therefore enables graceful handling of a NULL cleanup hook during torture-test shutdown. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* rcutorture: Stop generic kthreads in torture_cleanup()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-18/+19
| | | | | | | | | | 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.

* rcutorture: Abstract torture_stop_kthread()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+13
| | | | | | | | 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>
* rcutorture: Abstract torture_create_kthread()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-47/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* rcutorture: Fix rcutorture shutdown racesPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-4/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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().

* rcutorture: Announce task creationPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | A few "stealth-start rcutorture kthreads" have accumulated over the years, so this commit adds console-log announcements (but only if the torture tests are running verbose).

* rcutorture: Abstract torture_shutdown()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+84
| | | | | | | | Because auto-shutdown of torture testing is not specific to RCU, this commit moves the auto-shutdown function to kernel/torture.c. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
* rcutorture: Apply ACCESS_ONCE() to racy fullstop accessesPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | Because the fullstop variable can be accessed while it is being updated, this commit avoids any resulting compiler mischief through use of ACCESS_ONCE() for non-initialization accesses to this shared variable.

* rcutorture: Abstract stutter_wait()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-1/+86
| | | | | | | | | Because stuttering the test load (stopping and restarting it) is useful for non-RCU testing, this commit moves the load-stuttering functionality to kernel/torture.c. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
* rcutorture: Add diagnostic for unscheduled system shutdownPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Currently, rcutorture can terminate via rmmod, via self-shutdown, via something else shutting the system down, or of course the usual catastrophic termination. The first two get flagged, so this commit adds a message for the third. For the fourth, your warranty is void as always. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* rcutorture: Privatize fullstopPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-2/+25
| | | | | | | | | | This commit introduces the torture_must_stop() function in order to keep use of the fullstop variable local to kernel/torture.c. There is also a torture_must_stop_irq() counterpart for use from RCU callbacks, timeout handlers, and the like. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* rcutorture: Abstract torture_shutdown_notify()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-5/+24
| | | | | | | | | | Because handling the race between rmmod and system shutdown is not specific to RCU, this commit abstracts torture_shutdown_notify(), placing this code into kernel/torture.c. This change also allows fullstop_mutex to be private to kernel/torture.c. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>

* rcutorture: Abstract torture-test initializationPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | This commit creates torture_init_begin() and torture_init_end() functions to abstract locking and allow the torture_type and verbose variables in kernel/torture.o to become static. With a bit more abstraction, fullstop_mutex will also become static. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
* rcutorture: Abstract torture_onoff()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+186

* rcutorture: Abstract torture_shuffle()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+151
| | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* rcutorture: Abstract torture_shutdown_absorb()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* rcutorture: Abstract rcu_torture_random()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+71
Because rcu_torture_random() will be used by the locking equivalent to rcutorture, pull it out into its own module. This new module cannot be separately configured, instead, use the Kconfig "select" statement from the Kconfig options of tests depending on it.
