[PATCH v2 3/3] kfence: test: try to avoid test_gfpzero trigger rcu_stall

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

 



When CONFIG_KFENCE_NUM_OBJECTS is set to a big number, kfence
kunit-test-case test_gfpzero will eat up nearly all the CPU's
resources and rcu_stall is reported as the following log which
is cut from a physical server.

  rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU
  rcu: 	68-....: (14422 ticks this GP) idle=6ce/1/0x4000000000000002
  softirq=592/592 fqs=7500 (t=15004 jiffies g=10677 q=20019)
  Task dump for CPU 68:

To avoid rcu_stall and unacceptable latency, a schedule point is
added to test_gfpzero.
