Subject: [PATCH 12/28] hazptrtorture: Add irq_acquire to acquire hazptr from irq
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 17:00:40 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260919000056.3132131-12-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <e9669b34-12c2-4cf2-a887-315f581f0789@paulmck-laptop>
This commit adds the irq_acquire module parameter, which specifies how
often hazard pointers will be acquired from an smp_call_function_single()
handler. For example, a value of 10 would result in one of ten
hazard-pointer acquisitions taking place in a handler, and probably also
death by excessive numbers of handlers. A value of zero disables, and
a value of -1 makes the frequency decrease as a function of the number
of CPUs.
