Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 05/13] rcutorture: Use per-CPU random state for rcu_torture_timer()
Date: Mon, 25 Jun 2018 17:52:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180626005227.30660-5-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180626005205.GA28179@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently, the rcu_torture_timer() function uses a single global
torture_random_state structure protected by a single global lock.
This conflicts to some extent with performance and scalability,
but even more with the goal of consolidating read-side testing
with rcu_torture_reader().  This commit therefore creates a per-CPU
torture_random_state structure for use by rcu_torture_timer() and
eliminates the lock.
