Hi Steve,
I am using a 3.10 based kernel, and when I enable function_graph with one
particular x86_64 machine, I encounter rcu_sched stall.
echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on
If I use 4.13-rc2, then its better, but still goes for it after a bit of
stressing with stressng.
It looks like that this behavior should be expected with a loaded system (like
that of ftrace-graph tracing for all available function) which can cause RCU
stall warning. But,I am not an expert. So, whats your opinion on it?
I tried to bisect and there was no particular function which can cause this.
It looked like that when we had more than 5000 functions in set_ftrace_filter,
we start getting such warnings. Tried by putting some most hit functions like
spin_lock* etc in set_ftrace_notrace. Still, no help. Do you have some
suggestion for further debugging pointers?
