When CONFIG_KFENCE_NUM_OBJECTS is set to a big number, kfence kunit-test-case test_gfpzero will eat up nearly all the CPU's resources and rcu_stall is reported as the following log which is cut from a physical server. rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU rcu: 68-....: (14422 ticks this GP) idle=6ce/1/0x4000000000000002 softirq=592/592 fqs=7500 (t=15004 jiffies g=10677 q=20019) Task dump for CPU 68: task:kunit_try_catch state:R running task stack: 0 pid: 9728 ppid: 2 flags:0x0000020a Call trace: dump_backtrace+0x0/0x1e4 show_stack+0x20/0x2c sched_show_task+0x148/0x170 ... rcu_sched_clock_irq+0x70/0x180 update_process_times+0x68/0xb0 tick_sched_handle+0x38/0x74 ... gic_handle_irq+0x78/0x2c0 el1_irq+0xb8/0x140 kfree+0xd8/0x53c test_alloc+0x264/0x310 [kfence_test] test_gfpzero+0xf4/0x840 [kfence_test] kunit_try_run_case+0x48/0x20c kunit_generic_run_threadfn_adapter+0x28/0x34 kthread+0x108/0x13c ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18 To avoid rcu_stall and unacceptable latency, a schedule point is added to test_gfpzero.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
