4 Using RCU's CPU Stall Detector
7 This document first discusses what sorts of issues RCU's CPU stall
13 What Causes RCU CPU Stall Warnings?
16 So your kernel printed an RCU CPU stall warning. The next question is
17 "What caused it?" The following problems can result in RCU CPU stall
20 - A CPU looping in an RCU read-side critical section.
37 RCU CPU stall warning messages. Especially if you have added
40 - Anything that prevents RCU's grace-period kthreads from running.
48 happen to preempt a low-priority task in the middle of an RCU
51 in which case the next RCU grace period can never complete, which
57 is running at a higher priority than the RCU softirq threads.
58 This will prevent RCU callbacks from ever being invoked,
60 RCU grace periods from ever completing. Either way, the
66 increase the scheduling priority of RCU's kthreads, which can
73 prevent RCU's kthreads and softirq handlers from running.
77 RCU CPU stall warnings.
80 timeout down to just barely avoid RCU CPU stall warnings, and then
88 result in RCU CPU stall warnings for CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n kernels.
95 yes, even including bugs in RCU itself. It can also result in
99 - A bug in the RCU implementation.
104 This resulted in a series of RCU CPU stall warnings, eventually
107 The RCU, RCU-sched, and RCU-tasks implementations have CPU stall warning.
109 RCU only detects CPU stalls when there is a grace period in progress.
120 RCU bugs can often be debugged with the help of CONFIG_RCU_TRACE
121 and with RCU's event tracing. For information on RCU's event tracing,
122 see include/trace/events/rcu.h.
125 Fine-Tuning the RCU CPU Stall Detector
128 The rcuupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_suppress module parameter disables RCU's
129 CPU stall detector, which detects conditions that unduly delay RCU grace
139 that RCU will wait from the beginning of a grace period until it
140 issues an RCU CPU stall warning. This time period is normally
161 giving an RCU CPU stall warning message. (This is a cpp
178 This boot/sysfs parameter controls the RCU-tasks stall warning
179 interval. A value of zero or less suppresses RCU-tasks stall
181 in seconds. An RCU-tasks stall warning starts with the line:
186 task stalling the current RCU-tasks grace period.
189 Interpreting RCU's CPU Stall-Detector "Splats"
192 For non-RCU-tasks flavors of RCU, when a CPU detects that some other

223 The "softirq=" portion of the message tracks the number of RCU softirq
231 across repeated stall-warning messages, it is possible that RCU's softirq
