From 0729fbf3bc70870370b4f43d652f05a468dc68b8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2008 12:24:52 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: make rcutorture even more vicious: invoke RCU readers from irq handlers (timers) This patch allows torturing RCU from irq handlers (timers, in this case). A new module parameter irqreader enables such additional torturing, and is enabled by default. Variants of RCU that do not tolerate readers being called from irq handlers (e.g., SRCU) ignore irqreader. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
