I have added some debug tracing, which are available at branch
"sedat.2011.04.19a" in the git repository at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-2.6-rcu.git

Alternatively, if it is easier, the shown below can be used. FWIW,
this patch is against 2.6.39-rc3.

Either way, if you get a chance to run your tests on this, could you
please run the attached script (collectdebugfs.sh) and capture its output?
Sample output is attached as well (collectdebugfs.sh.out): the script
should output something vaguely like the sample output every 15 seconds
or so.

The script assumes that debugfs is enabled (along with CONFIG_RCU_TRACE=y)
and mounted as follows:

mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/

Or if you mount debugfs somewhere else, please set the script's DEBUGFS_MP
variable accordingly.

Thanx, Paul

+

+
+o "balk: nt" counts the number of times we didn't boost (in

+ there were no blocked tasks to boost. This situation occurs
+ when there is one blocked task on one rcu_node structure and
+ none on some other rcu_node structure.
+
+o "egt" counts the number of times we balked because although

+
+o "bt" counts the number of times we balked because boosting
+ had already been initiated for the current grace period.
