Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 2/3] rcutorture: Dump writer stack if stalled
Date: Wed,  4 Oct 2017 14:56:35 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1507154196-15100-2-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171004215609.GA14782@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Right now, rcutorture warns if an rcu_torture_writer() kthread stalls,
but this warning is not always all that helpful.  This commit therefore
makes the first such warning include a stack dump.

This in turn requires that sched_show_task() be exported to GPL modules,
so this commit makes that change as well.
