torture: Create kvm-check-branches.sh output in proper location

2022-06-21T22:57:04Z

Currently, kvm-check-branches.sh causes each kvm.sh invocation create a separate date-stamped directory, then after that invocation completes, moves it into the *-group/NNNN directory. This works, but makes it more difficult to monitor an ongoing run. This commit therefore uses the kvm.sh --datestamp argument to make kvm.sh put the output in the right place to start with, and also dispenses with the additional level of datestamping. (Those wanting datestamps can find them in the log files.) Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

torture: Adjust to again produce debugging information

2022-06-21T22:57:04Z

A recent change to the DEBUG_INFO Kconfig option means that simply adding CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y to the .config file and running "make oldconfig" no longer works. It is instead necessary to add CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_NONE=n and (for example) CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_DWARF_TOOLCHAIN_DEFAULT=y. This combination will then result in CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO being selected. This commit therefore updates the Kconfig options produced in response to the kvm.sh --gdb, --kasan, and --kcsan Kconfig options. Fixes: f9b3cd245784 ("Kconfig.debug: make DEBUG_INFO selectable from a choice") Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

torture: Make kvm-remote.sh announce which system is being waited on

2022-06-20T16:22:57Z

If a remote system fails in certain ways, for example, if it is rebooted without removing the contents of the /tmp directory, its remote.run file never will be removed and the kvm-remote.sh script will loop waiting forever. The manual workaround for this (hopefully!) rare event is to manually remove the file, which will cause the results up to the reboot to be collected and evaluated. Unfortunately, to work out which system is holding things up, the user must refer to the name of the last system whose results were collected, then look up the name of the next system in sequence, then manually remove the remote.run file. Even more unfortunately, this procedure can be fooled in runs where each system handles more than one batch should a given system take longer than expected, causing the systems to be handled out of order. This commit therefore causes kvm-remote.sh to print out the name of the system it will wait on next, allowing the user to refer directly to that name. Making the kvm-remote.sh script automatically handle unscheduled termination of the qemu processes is left as future work. Quite possibly deep future work. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

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
