From 29fc5f93320cb447f83baedfe103ed784cadb073 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2020 06:39:30 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Force DEFAULT_RCU_BLIMIT to 1000 for strict RCU GPs The value of DEFAULT_RCU_BLIMIT is normally set to 10, the idea being to avoid needless response-time degradation due to RCU callback invocation. However, when CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y it is better to avoid throttling callback execution in order to better detect pointer leaks from RCU read-side critical sections. This commit therefore sets the value of DEFAULT_RCU_BLIMIT to 1000 in kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y. Reported-by Jann Horn Signed-off-by: Paul E.
