    Subject[PATCH v8 0/6] rcu: Add RCU stall diagnosis information
    Date
    v7 --> v8:
    1. Change call jiffies64_to_msecs() to call jiffies_to_msecs().
    2. Mention that rcupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_cputime overrides
    CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_CPUTIME behaviour in the Kconfig help text.
    3. Fix a make htmldocs warning, change "|...|" to ":...:".

    v6 --> v7:
    1. Use kcpustat_field() to obtain the cputime.
    2. Make the output start with "\t" to match other related prints.
    3. Aligns the output of the last line of RCU stall.

    v5 --> v6:
    1. When there are more than two continuous RCU stallings, correctly handle the
    value of the second and subsequent sampling periods. Update comments and
    document.
    Thanks to Elliott, Robert for the test.
    2. Change "rcu stall" to "RCU stall".

    v4 --> v5:
    1. Resolve a git am conflict. No code change.

    v3 --> v4:
    1. Rename rcu_cpu_stall_deep_debug to rcu_cpu_stall_cputime.

    v2 --> v3:
    1. Fix the return type of kstat_cpu_irqs_sum()
    2. Add Kconfig option CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_DEEP_DEBUG and boot parameter
    rcupdate.rcu_cpu_stall_deep_debug.
    3. Add comments and normalize local variable name

    v1 --> v2:
    1. Fixed a bug in the code. If the rcu stall is detected by another CPU,
    kcpustat_this_cpu cannot be used.
    @@ -451,7 +451,7 @@ static void print_cpu_stat_info(int cpu)
    if (r->gp_seq != rdp->gp_seq)
    return;

    - cpustat = kcpustat_this_cpu->cpustat;
    + cpustat = kcpustat_cpu(cpu).cpustat;
    2. Move the start point of statistics from rcu_stall_kick_kthreads() to
    rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs(), removing the dependency on irq_work.

    v1:
    In some extreme cases, such as the I/O pressure test, the CPU usage may
    be 100%, causing RCU stall. In this case, the printed information about
    current is not useful. Displays the number and usage of hard interrupts,
    soft interrupts, and context switches that are generated within half of
    the CPU stall timeout, can help us make a general judgment. In other
    cases, we can preliminarily determine whether an infinite loop occurs
    when local_irq, local_bh or preempt is disabled.

    genirq: Fix the return type of kstat_cpu_irqs_sum()
    sched: Add helper kstat_cpu_softirqs_sum()
    sched: Add helper nr_context_switches_cpu()
    rcu: Add RCU stall diagnosis information
    doc: Document CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_CPUTIME=y stall information
    rcu: Align the output of RCU stall
