[PATCH 0/3] CSD-lock diagnostics enhancements

From: Neeraj Upadhyay
Date: Sat Jul 13 2024 - 13:01:37 EST


Hello!

This series adds following changes to the CSD-lock diagnostics (rebased on v6.10-rc7):

1. locking/csd_lock: Print large numbers as negatives.

2. locking/csd_lock: Provide an indication of ongoing CSD-lock stall.

3. locking/csd-lock: Use backoff for repeated reports of same
incident.

Once reviewed/acked, current plan is to take this through RCU tree during v6.12 merge window,
as RCU commit "7d2ba698ad85 rcu: Summarize RCU CPU stall warnings during CSD-lock stalls" [1]
has dependency on these changes. If there are any concerns with taking these through RCU tree,
please raise those concerns.

Thanks
