[PATCH] rcu-tasks: Avoid rtp_irq_work triggering when the rcu-tasks GP is ongoing

From: Zqiang
Date: Sun Mar 10 2024 - 23:55:18 EST


This commit generate rcu_task_gp_in_progress() to check whether
the rcu-tasks GP is ongoing, if is ongoing, avoid trigger
rtp_irq_work to wakeup rcu tasks kthreads in call_rcu_tasks_generic().

The test results are as follows:

echo call_rcu_tasks_iw_wakeup > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_profile_enabled
insmod rcutorture.ko torture_type=tasks-tracing fwd_progress=4
sleep 600
rmmod rcutorture.ko
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_profile_enabled
echo > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
