* perf Documentation: Remove Ruplicated docs for powerpc cpu specific eventsCody P Schafer2014-10-151-573/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Listing specific events doesn't actually help us at all here because: - these events actually vary between different ppc processors, they aren't garunteed to be present. - the documentation of the (generic) file contents is now superceded by the docs for arbitrary event file contents.

This allows readers to be very independent (and thus configurable), enabling future module parameters to control things such as rw distribution. Furthermore, readers have their own delaying function, allowing us to test different rw critical region latencies, and stress locking internals. Similarly, statistics, for now will only serve for the number of lock acquisitions -- as opposed to writers, readers have no failure detection. In addition, introduce a new nreaders_stress module parameter. The default number of readers will be the same number of writers threads. Writer threads are interleaved with readers. Documentation is updated, respectively. Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The main difference with the already existing spinlock tests is that the latency of the critical region is much larger. We randomly delay for (arbitrarily) either 500 ms or, otherwise, 25 ms. While this can considerably reduce the amount of writes compared to non blocking locks, if run long enough it can have the same torturous effect. Furthermore it is more representative of mutex hold times and can stress better things like thrashing. Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

The actual time is controlled by the boot/sysfs parameter rcu_task_stall_timeout, with values less than or equal to zero disabling the stall warnings. The default value is ten minutes, which means that the tasks that have not yet responded will get their stacks dumped every ten minutes, until they pass through a voluntary context switch.

This commit therefore adds a cbflood capability in which kthreads repeatedly registers large numbers of callbacks. One such kthread is created for each four CPUs (rounding up), and the test may be controlled by several cbflood_* kernel boot parameters, which control the number of bursts per flood, the number of callbacks per burst, the time between bursts, and the time between floods. The default values are large enough to exercise RCU's emergency responses to callback flooding. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

When designing a policy and labeling the system, access to files are either blocked in the default 'enforce' mode or automatically fixed in the 'fix' mode. It is beneficial to be able to run the system in a logging only mode, without fixing it, in order to properly analyze the system. This patch adds a 'log' mode to run the system in a permissive mode and log the appraisal results.

In PCI-X, the Host is responsible for driving the PCI-X initialization pattern to devices on the bus, so that they know whether to operate in conventional PCI or PCI-X mode as well as what the bus timing will be. For a PCI-X PrPMC, the pattern is driven by the mezzanine carrier it is installed onto. Therefore, PrPMCs are PCI-X Agents, but one per system may still enumerate the bus. This patch causes the device node of any PCI/PCI-X bridge strapped into Agent mode to be checked for the fsl,pci-agent-force-enum property. If the property is present in the node, the bridge will be allowed to enumerate the bus.

Add a new list_head argument to the lm_change operation, pass in a private list when calling it, and fix those callers to dispose of the list once the lock has been dropped.
