From 2f2214d43ccd27ac6d124287107c136a0f7c6053 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2020 10:30:46 -0700 Subject: rcuscale: Prevent hangs for invalid arguments If an rcuscale torture-test run is given a bad kvm.sh argument, the test will complain to the console, which is good. What is bad is that from the user's perspective, it will just hang for the time specified by the --duration argument. This commit therefore forces an immediate kernel shutdown if a rcu_scale_init()-time error occurs, thus avoiding the appearance of a hang. It also forces a console splat in this case to clearly indicate the presence of an error. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
