[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/6] Torture-test updates for 4.3

[Paul E. McKenney]

Hello!

This series contains torture-test updates:

1.	Improve bounds checking for n_barrier_cbs: No more negatives.

2.	Improve bounds checking for nfakewriters: No more negatives.

3.	Improve bounds checking for shuffle_interval: No more negatives.

4.	Fix rcu_torture_cbflood() for callback-free RCU to avoid
	occasional segfaults when disabled.

5.	Add RCU-tasks qualifier to dereference to avoid lockdep
	false positives during torture testing.

6.	Enable lockdep-RCU on TASKS01 to improve test coverage.

							Thanx, Paul

[PATCH tip/core/rcu 1/6] rcutorture: Better bounds checking for n_barrier_cbs

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

A negative value for rcutorture.n_barrier_cbs can pass a negative value
to the memory allocator, so this commit instead causes rcu_barrier()
testing to be disabled in this case.

[PATCH tip/core/rcu 2/6] rcutorture: Check nfakewriters parameter

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently, a negative value for rcutorture.nfakewriters= can cause
rcutorture to pass a negative size to the memory allocator, which
is not really a particularly good thing to do.  This commit therefore
adds bounds checking to this parameter, so that values that are less
than or equal to zero disable fake writing.

[PATCH tip/core/rcu 3/6] rcutorture: Bounds-check rcutorture.shuffle_interval

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Specifying a negative rcutorture.shuffle_interval value will cause a
negative value to be used as a sleep time.  This commit therefore
refuses to start shuffling unless the rcutorture.shuffle_interval
value is greater than zero.

[PATCH tip/core/rcu 4/6] rcutorture: Fix rcu_torture_cbflood() for callback-free RCU

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The rcu_torture_cbflood() function correctly checks for flavors of
RCU that lack analogs to call_rcu() and rcu_barrier(), but in that
case it fails to terminate correctly.  In fact, it terminates so
incorrectly that segfaults can result.  This commit therefore causes
rcu_torture_cbflood() to do the proper wait-for-stop procedure.

[PATCH tip/core/rcu 5/6] rcutorture: Add RCU-tasks qualifier to dereference

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Although RCU-tasks isn't really designed to support rcu_dereference()
and list manipulation, that is how rcutorture tests it.  Which means
that lockdep-RCU complains about the rcu_dereference_check() invocations
because RCU-tasks doesn't have read-side markers.  This commit therefore
creates a torturing_tasks() to silence the lockdep-RCU complaints from
rcu_dereference_check() when RCU-tasks is being tortured.

[PATCH tip/core/rcu 6/6] rcutorture: Enable lockdep-RCU on TASKS01

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently none of the RCU-tasks scenarios enables lockdep-RCU, which
causes bugs to be missed.  This commit therefore enables lockdep-RCU
on TASKS01.
