[PATCH v3] selftests/ftrace: Do not trace do_softirq because of PREEMPT_RT

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The PREEMPT_RT patchset does not use do_softirq() function thus trying
to filter for do_softirq fails for such kernel:

  echo do_softirq
  ftracetest: 81: echo: echo: I/O error

Choose some other visible function for the test.  The function does not
have to be actually executed during the test, because it is only testing
filter API interface.

Changes since v2:
1. Rephrase commit msg, after comments from Sebastian.
2. Add review tag.

Changes since v1:
1. Use scheduler_tick.
2. Add review tag.

Notes:
I understand that the failure does not exist on mainline kernel (only
with PREEMPT_RT patchset) but the change does not harm it.

If it is not suitable alone, please consider it for RT patchset.
