From 2b4a7f20f160e6440848c62a70ee5dc5237a2c8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2021 12:23:31 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] torture: Distinguish kthread stopping and being asked to stop Right now, if a given kthread (call it "kthread") realizes that it needs to stop, "Stopping kthread" is written to the console. When the cleanup code decides that it is time to stop that kthread, "Stopping kthread tasks" is written to the console. These two events might happen in either order, especially in the case of time-based torture-test shutdown. But it is hard to distinguish these, especially for those unfamiliar with the torture tests. This commit therefore changes the first case from "Stopping kthread" to "kthread is stopping" to make things more clear. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
