Subject: [PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 07/11] rcu: Remove conditional compilation for RCU CPU stall warnings
Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2011 17:39:36 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1298425183-21265-7-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110223013917.GA20996@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
The RCU CPU stall warnings can now be controlled using the
rcu_cpu_stall_suppress boot-time parameter or via the same parameter
from sysfs. There is therefore no longer any reason to have
kernel config parameters for this feature. This commit therefore
removes the RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR and RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR_RUNNABLE
kernel config parameters. The RCU_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT parameter remains
to allow the timeout to be tuned and the RCU_CPU_STALL_VERBOSE parameter
remains to allow task-stall information to be suppressed if desired.

Using RCU's CPU Stall Detector
-The CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR kernel config parameter enables

-"unduly delayed" is controlled by a set of C preprocessor macros:
+The rcu_cpu_stall_suppress module parameter enables RCU's CPU stall
+detector, which detects conditions that unduly delay RCU grace periods.
+This module parameter enables CPU stall detection by default, but
+may be overridden via boot-time parameter or at runtime via sysfs.
+The stall detector's idea of what constitutes "unduly delayed" is
+controlled by a set of kernel configuration variables and cpp macros:
-RCU_SECONDS_TILL_STALL_CHECK
+CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT
- This macro defines the period of time that RCU will wait from
- the beginning of a grace period until it issues an RCU CPU
- stall warning. This time period is normally ten seconds.
