[PATCH rcu 16/17] rcutorture: Add ability to limit callback-flood intensity

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Wed Dec 01 2021 - 19:44:23 EST


The RCU tasks flavors of RCU now need concurrent callback flooding to
test their ability to switch between single-queue mode and per-CPU queue
mode, but their lack of heavy-duty forward-progress features rules out
the use of rcutorture's current callback-flooding code. This commit
therefore provides the ability to limit the intensity of the callback
floods using a new ->cbflood_max field in the rcu_operations structure.
When this field is zero, there is no limit, otherwise, each callback-flood
kthread allocates at most ->cbflood_max callbacks.
