    rcu: Introduce CONFIG_RCU_EXP_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT · 28b3ae42
    Uladzislau Rezki authored
    Currently both expedited and regular grace period stall warnings use
    a single timeout value that with units of seconds.  However, recent
    Android use cases problem require a sub-100-millisecond expedited RCU CPU
    stall warning.  Given that expedited RCU grace periods normally complete
    in far less than a single millisecond, especially for small systems,
    this is not unreasonable.
    
    Therefore introduce the CONFIG_RCU_EXP_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT kernel
    configuration that defaults to 20 msec on Android and remains the same
    as that of the non-expedited stall warnings otherwise.  It also can be
    changed in run-time via: /sys/.../parameters/rcu_exp_cpu_stall_timeout.
