[PATCH tip/core/rcu 08/12] rcu: Force tick on for nohz_full CPUs not reaching quiescent states

paulmck
2019-10-03T01:39:12Z

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

CPUs running for long time periods in the kernel in nohz_full mode
might leave the scheduling-clock interrupt disabled for then full
duration of their in-kernel execution. This can (among other things)
delay grace periods. This commit therefore forces the tick back on
for any nohz_full CPU that is failing to pass through a quiescent state
upon return from interrupt, which the resched_cpu() will induce.

Reported-by: Joel Fernandes <joel@joelfernandes.org>
[ paulmck: Clear ->rcu_forced_tick as reported by Joel Fernandes testing. ]
[ paulmck: Apply Joel Fernandes TICK_DEP_MASK_RCU->TICK_DEP_BIT_RCU fix. ]
