From 52db30ab23b6d00cf80b22a510c4ea4be4458031 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2014 18:16:30 -0700 Subject: rcu: Add stall-warning checks for RCU-tasks This commit adds a ten-minute RCU-tasks stall warning. 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.
