From 028be12b294e3a059e6fc06852d458fdc82717ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Tue, 8 May 2018 09:20:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcutorture: Change units of onoff_interval to jiffies Some RCU bugs have been sensitive to the frequency of CPU-hotplug operations, which have been gradually increased over time. But this frequency is now at the one-second lower limit that can be specified using the rcutorture.onoff_interval kernel parameter. This commit therefore changes the units of rcutorture.onoff_interval from seconds to jiffies, and also sets the value specified for this kernel parameter in the TREE03 rcutorture scenario to 200, which is 200 milliseconds for HZ=1000.
