2014-05-14rcutorture: Note diffs from git commitsPaul E. McKenney
The current scripting only keeps track of the git SHA-1 of the current HEAD. This can cause confusion in cases where testing ran in a git tree where changes had not yet been checked in. This commit therefore also records the output of "git diff HEAD" to provide the information needed to reconstruct the source tree that was tested. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2014-05-14torture: Use elapsed time to detect hangsPaul E. McKenney
The kvm-test-1-run.sh currently counts "sleep 1" commands to detect hangs. This can fail spectacularly on busy systems, where "sleep 1" might take far longer than one second to complete. This commit therefore changes hang detection to use elapsed time measurements. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
2014-05-14torture: Better summary diagnostics for build failuresPaul E. McKenney
The reaction of kvm-recheck.sh is obscure at best, and easy to miss completely. This commit therefore prints "BUG: Build failed" in the summary at the end of a run. This commit also adds the line of dashes in cases where performance info is not available, and also avoids printing nonsense diagnostics in cases where some of the normal test output is not available. In addition, this commit saves off the .config file even when the build fails. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2014-05-14torture: Choose bzImage location based on architecturePaul E. McKenney
Currently, the scripts hard-code arch/x86/boot/bzImage, which does not work well for other architectures. This commit therefore provides a identify_boot_image function that selects the correct bzImage location relative to the top of the Linux source tree. This commit also adds a --bootimage argument that allows selecting some other file, for example, "vmlinux". This change requires that the definition of the QEMU variable be computed earlier in order to identify where to look for the boot image when it comes time to copy it to the results directory.

2014-05-14torture: Report diagnostics from qemuPaul E. McKenney
The current script does record qemu diagnostics, but the user has to know where to look for them. This commit therefore puts them into the Warnings file so that kvm-recheck.sh will display them. This change is especially useful if you are in the habit of killing the qemu process when you realize that you messed something up, but then later on wonder why the process terminated early.

2014-05-14torture: Make "--dryrun script" use same environment as normal runPaul E. McKenney
In a normal torture-test run, the script inherits its environment variables, but this does not work when producing a script that is to run later. Therefore, definitions and exports are prepended to a dryrun script but not to a script that is run immediately. This commit reconciles this by placing definitions and exports at the beginning of the script in both cases. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2014-05-14torture: Make config-fragment filtering RCU-independentPaul E. McKenney
The torture tests need to set specific values for their respective Kconfig options (e.g., CONFIG_LOCK_TORTURE_TEST), and must therefore filter any conflicting definitions from the Kconfig fragment file. Unfortunately, the code in kvm-build.sh was looking only for CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST. This commit therefore handles the general case of CONFIG_[A-Z]*_TORTURE_TEST. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This is the main pull request with most of the work for this merge window. I will describe it a bit more further down.

Running the standard set of rcutorture tests on 24 CPUs results in the following sub-optimal schedule: ----start batch---- TREE07 16 ----start batch---- TREE08 16 SRCU-P 8 ----start batch---- TREE01 8 TREE02 8 TREE03 8 ----start batch---- TREE04 8 TREE05 8 TREE06 8 ----start batch---- SRCU-N 4 TINY01 1 TINY02 1 TREE09 1 If one of the eight-CPU runs were to be moved into the first batch, the test suite would complete in four batches rather than five.
