1 This document gives a brief rationale for the TREE_RCU-related test
2 cases, a group that includes PREEMPT_RCU.
7 CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC -- Do three, covering CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING & not.
8 CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD -- Do one.
9 CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU -- Do half. (Every second.)
10 CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC -- Do one.
11 CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE -- Do those not otherwise specified. (Groups of two.)
12 CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL -- Do two, one with partial CPU enablement.
13 CONFIG_PREEMPT -- Do half. (First three and #8.)
14 CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING -- Do several, covering CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y and not.
15 CONFIG_PROVE_RCU -- Hardwired to CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING.
16 CONFIG_RCU_BOOST -- one of PREEMPT_RCU.
17 CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT -- Cover hierarchy, but overlap with others.
18 CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF -- Do one non-default.
19 CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ -- Do one, but not with all nohz_full CPUs.
20 CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU -- Do three, one with no rcu_nocbs CPUs, one with
21 rcu_nocbs=0, and one with all rcu_nocbs CPUs.
22 CONFIG_RCU_TRACE -- Do half.
23 CONFIG_SMP -- Need one !SMP for PREEMPT_RCU.
24 CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT=n -- Do a few, but these have to be vanilla configurations.
25 CONFIG_RCU_EQS_DEBUG -- Do at least one for CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL and not.
27 RCU-bh: Do one with PREEMPT and one with !PREEMPT.
28 RCU-sched: Do one with PREEMPT but not BOOST.
33 nohz_full - do at least one.
34 maxcpu -- do at least one.
35 rcupdate.rcu_self_test_bh -- Do at least one each, offloaded and not.
36 rcupdate.rcu_self_test_sched -- Do at least one each, offloaded and not.
37 rcupdate.rcu_self_test -- Do at least one each, offloaded and not.
38 rcutree.rcu_fanout_exact -- Do at least one.
41 Kconfig Parameters Ignored:
45 Used only to check CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT value, inspection suffices.
50 Redundant with CONFIG_PREEMPT, ignore.
52 CONFIG_RCU_BOOST_DELAY
54 Inspection suffices, ignore.
56 CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT
58 Inspection suffices, ignore.
60 CONFIG_RCU_STALL_COMMON
62 Implied by TREE_RCU and PREEMPT_RCU.
64 CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST
65 CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_RUNNABLE
67 Always used in KVM testing.
74 These are controlled by CONFIG_PREEMPT and/or CONFIG_SMP.
78 Selected by CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST, so cannot disable.
81 boot parameters ignored: TBD
