Hello!
This series adds following changes to the CSD-lock diagnostics (rebased on v6.10):
1. locking/csd_lock: Print large numbers as negatives.
2. locking/csd_lock: Provide an indication of ongoing CSD-lock stall.
3. locking/csd-lock: Use backoff for repeated reports of same
incident.
This is the second version of this patchset. Previous version can be found at [1]
Changes since v1:
- Rebase on v6.10
- Fix n_csd_lock_stuck atomic op in csd_lock_wait_toolong (Rik van Riel)
- Apply Rik van Riel's Reviewed-by.
Once reviewed/acked, current plan is to take this through RCU tree during v6.12 merge window,
as RCU commit "7d2ba698ad85 rcu: Summarize RCU CPU stall warnings during CSD-lock stalls" [2]
has dependency on these changes. If there are any concerns with taking these through RCU tree,
please raise those concerns.
