Currently, with RCU_BOOST disabled, I get no failures when forcing rcutorture to test RCU boost priority inversion. The reason seems to be that we don't check for failures if the callback never ran at all for the duration of the boost-test loop. Further, the 'rtb' and 'rtbf' counters seem to be used inconsistently. 'rtb' is incremented at the start of each test and 'rtbf' is incremented per-cpu on each failure of call_rcu. So its possible 'rtbf' > 'rtb'. To test the boost with rcutorture, I did following on a 4-CPU x86 machine: modprobe rcutorture test_boost=2 sleep 20 rmmod rcutorture With patch: rtbf: 8 rtb: 12 Without patch: rtbf: 0 rtb: 2 In summary this patch: - Increments failed and total test counters once per boost-test. - Checks for failure cases correctly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
