Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 13/17] rcutorture: Print time since GP end upon forward-progress failure
Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2018 12:20:23 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181111202027.13585-13-paulmck@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181111201956.GA11935@linux.ibm.com>

If rcutorture's forward-progress tests fail while a grace period is not
in progress, it is useful to print the time since the last grace period
ended as a way to detect failure to launch a new grace period.  This
commit therefore makes this change.
