Lazy RCU callbacks are those which RCU can
prove do nothing more than free memory.
+ rcuperf.gp_exp= [KNL]
+ Measure performance of expedited synchronous
+ grace-period primitives.
+
+ rcuperf.nreaders= [KNL]
+ Set number of RCU readers. The value -1 selects
+ N, where N is the number of CPUs. A value
+ "n" less than -1 selects N-n+1, where N is again
+ the number of CPUs. For example, -2 selects N
+ (the number of CPUs), -3 selects N+1, and so on.
+ A value of "n" less than or equal to -N selects
+ a single reader.
+
+ rcuperf.nwriters= [KNL]
+ Set number of RCU writers. The values operate
+ the same as for rcuperf.nreaders.
+ N, where N is the number of CPUs
+
+ rcuperf.perf_runnable= [BOOT]
+ Start rcuperf running at boot time.
+
+ rcuperf.shutdown= [KNL]
+ Shut the system down after performance tests
+ complete. This is useful for hands-off automated
+ testing.
+
+ rcuperf.perf_type= [KNL]
+ Specify the RCU implementation to test.
+
+ rcuperf.verbose= [KNL]
+ Enable additional printk() statements.

rcutorture.cbflood_inter_holdoff= [KNL]
Set holdoff time (jiffies) between successive
callback-flood tests.
