Subject: [RFC PATCH 19/19] sched/topology: Add basic debug information for "nohz_shared_list"
Date: Thu, 4 Sep 2025 04:15:15 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250904041516.3046-20-kprateek.nayak@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250904041516.3046-1-kprateek.nayak@amd.com>
Introduce debug_nohz_shared_list_update() to count the number of entries
in "nohz_shared_list" after each list modification.
XXX: There isn't a great way to jump from a sched_domain_shared object
to the sched_domain struct that references it which prevents printing
more information about the sched domain that was linked with the
shared object.
Signed-off-by: K Prateek Nayak <kprateek.nayak@amd.com>

Note: Something in this patch upsets the LOCKDEP + sched_verbose cmdline
combo and hangs my system soon into boot. LOCKDEP alone or sched_verbose
cmdline alone doesn't have this effect and until Patch 18 even the
offending combo runs fine.
DEBUG_LIST didn't point to anything and I'm still scrathing my head on
why this may be the case (maybe I need some glasses).
