From 6bc6e6b27524304aadb9c04611ddb1c84dd7617a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2023 16:12:18 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] refscale: Move shutdown from wait_event() to wait_event_idle() The ref_scale_shutdown() kthread/function uses wait_event() to wait for the refscale test to complete. However, although the read-side tests are normally extremely fast, there is no law against specifying a very large value for the refscale.loops module parameter or against having a slow read-side primitive. Either way, this might well trigger the hung-task timeout. This commit therefore replaces those wait_event() calls with calls to wait_event_idle(), which do not trigger the hung-task timeout.
