  For kernels built with enable PREEMPT_NONE and CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP,
running the RCU stall tests.

The above calltrace occurs in the local_irq_disable/enable() critical
section call schedule_timeout(), and invoke schedule_timeout() also
implies a quiescent state, of course it also fails to trigger RCU stall,
this commit therefore use mdelay() instead of schedule_timeout() to
trigger RCU stall.

Tweak the commit description above to fix some grammar errors:

    The above call trace occurred in the local_irq_disable/enable() critical section
    when calling schedule_timeout() from rcu_torture_stall(). Invoking schedule_timeout() 
    also implies a quiescent state, of course, it also fails to trigger RCU stall. This commit, 
    therefore, uses mdelay() instead of schedule_timeout() to trigger the RCU stall.

I didn't reproduce the call trace after applying your patch.
So, with the above minor fixes, then

    Tested-by: Qiuxu Zhuo <qiuxu.zhuo@intel.com>

Right here there is:

			if (stall_cpu_block) {

In other words, the rcutorture.stall_cpu_block module parameter says to
block, even if it is a bad thing to do.  The point of this is to verify
the error messages that are supposed to be printed on the console when
this happens.

So this really needs to stay schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(HZ).

So should there be a change to kernel-parameters.txt to make it
more clear that this is intended behavior?

But invoke schedule_timeout_uninterruptible(HZ) implies a quiescent state, 
this will not cause an RCU stall to occur, and still in the RCU read critical section(PREEMPT_COUNT=y).

It didn't happen RCU stall when I tested with the following parameters for 
rcutorture.stall_cpu=30
rcutorture.stall_no_softlockup=1
rcutorture.stall_cpu_irqsoff=1
rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=1

Understood.  If you want that RCU CPU stall in a CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n
kernel, you should not use rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=1.

In a CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y kernel, rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=1 forces
the grace period to be stalled on a task rather than a CPU, exercising
a different part of the RCU CPU stall warning code.

In a CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n kernel, using rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=1
forces the CPU to go through a quiescent state, as you say.  It can
also cause lockdep and scheduling-while-atomic complaints, depending on
exactly what type of RCU reader is in effect.

So these are test-the-diagnostics parameters.  The mdelay() instead
makes rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=1 do the same thing as does
rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=0 for CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n kernels, right?

Yes,   maybe  we can increase the description of the stall_cpu_block in kernel-parameters.txt.

Agree

Verified.

if rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=0, it can trigger the expected RCU CPU stall for either 
torture_type=srcu or torture_type=rcu.

Verified.

If rcutorture.stall_cpu_block=1:
    There were lockdep and scheduling-while-atomic complaints for torture_type=rcu.
    No lockdep and scheduling-while-atomic complaints for torture_type=srcu.

Good to know that these are test-the-diagnostics parameters and their expected behaviors.  ;-)
Thanks!
