This document gives a brief rationale for the TREE_RCU-related test
cases, a group that includes PREEMPT_RCU.
Kconfig Parameters:
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC -- Do three, covering CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING & not.
CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD -- Do one.
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU -- Do half. (Every second.)
CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC -- Do one.
CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE -- Do those not otherwise specified. (Groups of two.)
CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL -- Do two, one with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE.
CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE -- Do one.
CONFIG_PREEMPT -- Do half. (First three and #8.)
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING -- Do several, covering CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y and not.
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU -- Hardwired to CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING.
CONFIG_RCU_BOOST -- one of PREEMPT_RCU.
CONFIG_RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO -- set to 2 for _BOOST testing.
CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT -- Cover hierarchy, but overlap with others.
CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF -- Do one non-default.
CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ -- Do one, but not with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL.
CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU -- Do three, see below.
CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL -- Do one.
CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_NONE -- Do one.
CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ZERO -- Do one.
CONFIG_RCU_TRACE -- Do half.
CONFIG_SMP -- Need one !SMP for PREEMPT_RCU.
!RCU_EXPERT -- Do a few, but these have to be vanilla configurations.
RCU-bh: Do one with PREEMPT and one with !PREEMPT.
RCU-sched: Do one with PREEMPT but not BOOST.
Boot parameters:
nohz_full - do at least one.
maxcpu -- do at least one.
rcupdate.rcu_self_test_bh -- Do at least one each, offloaded and not.
rcupdate.rcu_self_test_sched -- Do at least one each, offloaded and not.
rcupdate.rcu_self_test -- Do at least one each, offloaded and not.
rcutree.rcu_fanout_exact -- Do at least one.
Kconfig Parameters Ignored:
CONFIG_64BIT
Used only to check CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT value, inspection suffices.
CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_SYSIDLE_SMALL
Defer until Frederic uses this.
CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU
Redundant with CONFIG_PREEMPT, ignore.
CONFIG_RCU_BOOST_DELAY
Inspection suffices, ignore.
CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT
Inspection suffices, ignore.
CONFIG_RCU_STALL_COMMON
Implied by TREE_RCU and PREEMPT_RCU.
CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST
CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_RUNNABLE
Always used in KVM testing.
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU
CONFIG_TREE_RCU
These are controlled by CONFIG_PREEMPT.
