From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: paulmck@kernel.org Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 32/32] tools/memory-model: Use "-unroll 0" to keep --hw runs finite Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2019 17:26:50 -0700 Message-ID: <20191003002650.11249-32-paulmck@kernel.org> References: <20191003001039.GA8027@paulmck-ThinkPad-P72> Return-path: In-Reply-To: <20191003001039.GA8027@paulmck-ThinkPad-P72> Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-arch@vger.kernel.org, mingo@kernel.org Cc: stern@rowland.harvard.edu, parri.andrea@gmail.com, will@kernel.org, peterz@infradead.org, boqun.feng@gmail.com, npiggin@gmail.com, dhowells@redhat.com, j.alglave@ucl.ac.uk, luc.maranget@inria.fr, akiyks@gmail.com, "Paul E. McKenney" List-Id: linux-arch.vger.kernel.org From: "Paul E. McKenney" Litmus tests involving atomic operations produce LL/SC loops on a number of architectures, and unrolling these loops can result in excessive verification times or even stack overflows. This commit therefore uses the "-unroll 0" herd7 argument to avoid unrolling, on the grounds that additional passes through an LL/SC loop should not change the verification. Note however, that certain bugs in the mapping of the LL/SC loop to machine instructions may go undetected. On the other hand, herd7 might not be the best vehicle for finding such bugs in any case. (You do stress-test your architecture-specific code, don't you?) Suggested-by: Luc Maranget Signed-off-by: Paul E.
