[PATCH v4 tip/core/rcu 32/38] rcu-tasks: Add rcu_dynticks_zero_in_eqs() effectiveness statistics

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

 



From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>

This commit adds counts of the number of calls and number of successful
calls to rcu_dynticks_zero_in_eqs(), which are printed at the end
of rcutorture runs and at stall time.  This allows evaluation of the
effectiveness of rcu_dynticks_zero_in_eqs().
