[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH RFC 12/13] rcutorture: Bracket Tasks RCU readers with trampoline nesting
rcutorture's tasks flavor models a Tasks RCU reader as "any stretch of
kernel code", and rcu_read_delay() deliberately preempts inside it to
check that a preemption does not end the read-side critical section.
Once preemption outside a trampoline becomes a quiescent state that
model no longer matches what Tasks RCU protects, and the readers would
report false too-short grace periods.
Have tasks_torture_read_lock()/unlock() raise and drop
current->rcu_tramp_nesting so the reader models a trampoline, which is
the thing Tasks RCU actually guards; the deliberate preemption inside it
then continues to be, correctly, not a quiescent state.
