From 2b1516e55f8416acfb48d5f43d41222d180fb5a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2017 16:11:37 -0700 Subject: rcutorture: Add interrupt-disable capability to stall-warning tests When rcutorture sees the rcutorture.stall_cpu kernel boot parameter, it loops with preemption disabled, which does in fact normally generate an RCU CPU stall warning message. However, there are test scenarios that need the stalling CPU to have interrupts disabled. This commit therefore adds an rcutorture.stall_cpu_irqsoff kernel boot parameter that causes the stalling CPU to disable interrupts. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
