Subject: [PATCH rcu 2/2] rcutorture: Use the barrier operation specified by cur_ops
Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2022 11:21:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220831182113.GA2697286@paulmck-ThinkPad-P17-Gen-1>

From: Zqiang <[email protected]>

The rcutorture_oom_notify() function unconditionally invokes
rcu_barrier(), which is OK when the rcutorture.torture_type value is
"rcu", but unhelpful otherwise.  The purpose of these barrier calls is to
wait for all outstanding callback-flooding callbacks to be invoked before
cleaning up their data.  Using the wrong barrier function therefore
risks arbitrary memory corruption.  Thus, this commit changes these
rcu_barrier() calls into cur_ops->cb_barrier() to make things work when
torturing non-vanilla flavors of RCU.
