rcutorture: Can not Disable RT throttling
From: Z qiang

When running build-in rcutorture tests in 6.5.0-rc4-rt, and found that,
although the value of /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us is -1,
cat /sys/kernel/debug/sched/debug
....
rt_rq[6]:
.rt_nr_running : 4
.rt_nr_migratory : 0
.rt_throttled : 0
.rt_time : 0.000000
.rt_runtime : 950.000000
but the rt_runtime still is 950.000000.
set sysctl_sched_rt_runtime in rcu_torture_disable_rt_throttle()
does not disable rt-throttling.
Currently I'm testing this way to disable rt-throttling:
diff --git a/kernel/sched/rt.c b/kernel/sched/rt.c
index 338cd150973f..bb9fee51a476 100644
--- a/kernel/sched/rt.c

* default: 0.95s
*/
-int sysctl_sched_rt_runtime = 950000;
+int sysctl_sched_rt_runtime = IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST) ?
-1 : 950000;
#ifdef CONFIG_SYSCTL
static int sysctl_sched_rr_timeslice = (MSEC_PER_SEC / HZ) * RR_TIMESLICE;
Is there a better way to solve it?
Thanks
