Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 05/15] hazptr: add debug option to force the acquire slow path
Date: Sat,  3 Oct 2026 01:08:37 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261002170847.3653663-6-kunwu.chan@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261002170847.3653663-1-kunwu.chan@gmail.com>

Add a debug option that makes hazptr_acquire() always enter
__hazptr_acquire(), even when a per-CPU slot is available.

This allows the slow path, including its lock acquisition, to be
exercised by lockdep-heavy workloads.  It also lets hazptrtorture
exercise the slow path without requiring the per-CPU slots to be
exhausted.
