Subject: [PATCH v2 tip/core/rcu 2/9] rcutorture: Flag nonexistent RCU GP kthread
Date: Wed,  9 Dec 2015 15:23:39 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1449703426-4025-2-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20151209232318.GA3299@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently, if the RCU grace-period kthread has not yet been created,
in which case the starvation-check code will print zero for the state,
which maps to TASK_RUNNING.  This could clearly be quite confusing, so
this commit prints ~0, which does not map to any legal ->state value.
