rcutorture: Make torture.sh allow for --kasan

2022-04-20T23:55:03Z

The torture.sh script provides extra memory for scftorture and rcuscale. However, the total memory provided is only 1G, which is less than the 2G that is required for KASAN testing. This commit therefore ups the torture.sh script's 1G to 2G. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

rcutorture: Make torture.sh refscale and rcuscale specify Tasks Trace RCU

2022-04-20T23:55:03Z

Now that the Tasks RCU flavors are selected by their users rather than by the rcutorture scenarios, torture.sh fails when attempting to run NOPREEMPT scenarios for refscale and rcuscale. This commit therefore makes torture.sh specify CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU=y to avoid such failure. Why not also CONFIG_TASKS_RCU? Because tracing selects this one. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

rcutorture: Make kvm.sh allow more memory for --kasan runs

2022-04-20T23:55:03Z

KASAN allots significant memory to track allocation state, and the amount of memory has increased recently, which results in frequent OOMs on a few of the rcutorture scenarios. This commit therefore provides 2G of memory for --kasan runs, up from the 512M default. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

torture: Save "make allmodconfig" .config file

2022-04-20T23:55:03Z

Currently, torture.sh saves only the build output and exit code from the "make allmodconfig" test. This commit also saves the .config file. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

torture: Enable CSD-lock stall reports for scftorture

2022-04-20T23:55:03Z

This commit passes the csdlock_debug=1 kernel parameter in order to enable CSD-lock stall reports for torture.sh scftorure runs. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

torture: Skip vmlinux check for kvm-again.sh runs

2022-04-20T23:54:56Z

The kvm-again.sh script reruns an previously built set of kernels, so the vmlinux files are associated with that previous run, not this on. This results in kvm-find_errors.sh reporting spurious failed-build errors. This commit therefore omits the vmlinux check for kvm-again.sh runs. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

torture: Make thread detection more robust by using lspcu

2022-04-12T00:08:59Z

For consecutive numbers the lscpu command collapses the output and just shows the range with start and end. The processors are numbered that way on POWER8. $ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=8 $ lscpu | grep '^NUMA node' NUMA node(s): 2 NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-79 NUMA node8 CPU(s): 80-159 This causes the heuristic to detect the number threads per core, looking for the number after the first comma, to fail, and QEMU aborts because of invalid arguments. $ lscpu | grep '^NUMA node0' | sed -e 's/^[^,-]*(,|\-)$[0-9]*$,.*$/\1/' NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-79 But the lscpu command shows the number of threads per core: $ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=8 $ lscpu | grep 'Thread(s) per core' Thread(s) per core: 8 $ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=off $ lscpu | grep 'Thread(s) per core' Thread(s) per core: 1 This commit therefore directly uses that value and replaces use of grep with "sed -n" and its "p" command.

torture: Permit running of experimental torture types

2022-04-12T00:08:59Z

This commit weakens the checks of the kvm.sh script's --torture parameter and the kvm-recheck.sh script's parsing so that experimental torture tests may be created without updating these two scripts. The changes required are to the appropriate Makefile and Kconfig file, plus a directory whose name begins with "X" must be added to the rcutorture/configs file. This new directory's name can then be passed in via the kvm.sh script's --torture parameter. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

torture: Use "-o Batchmode=yes" to disable ssh password requests

2022-04-12T00:08:59Z

The torture.sh script normally runs unattended, so there is not much point in the "ssh" command asking for a password. This commit therefore adds the "-o Batchmode=yes" argument to each "ssh" command to cause it to fail rather than ask for a password. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney
