Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 09/17] rcutorture: Vary forward-progress test interval
Date: Wed, 29 Aug 2018 14:47:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180829214750.26972-9-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180829214722.GA23411@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Some of the Linux kernel's RCU implementations provide several mechanisms
to promote forward progress that operate over different timeframes.
This commit therefore causes rcu_torture_fwd_prog() to vary the duration
of its forward-progress testing in order to test each such mechanism.
