Hmmm... I wonder if it waits for a grace period?

If it cannot be made to work, I can probably put together some
alternative diagnostics, but it will take me a day or three.

Actually, another thing to try is "torture_type=rcu_bh" on the modprobe
line for rcutorture. Also, it would be good to get a stack dump of the
hung process -- it might be hung for some other reason.


Paul,

Do not dwell more over this issue at the moment. I have indications that the inconsistency we're seeing is related to something else than the RCU code itself.

Kind regards,
