Paul E. McKenney 444da518fd rcutorture: Force occasional reader waits
Deferred quiescent states can interact with the scheduler, but
rcu_torture_reader() does not force such interaction all that frequently.
This commit therefore blocks for one jiffy after ten jiffies of read-side
runtime.  This has the beneficial effect of being most likely to block
just after long-running readers, and it is exactly these readers that
are most likely to have been preempted (in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels).
This in turn helps increase the probability that a deferred quiescent
state will be seen by RCU's context-switch hooks.

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.
