From c0e1472d80784206ead1dd803dd4bc10e282b17f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2020 12:58:15 -0800 Subject: locktorture: Use private random-number generators Both lock_torture_writer() and lock_torture_reader() use the "static" keyword on their DEFINE_TORTURE_RANDOM(rand) declarations, which means that a single instance of a random-number generator are shared among all the writers and another is shared among all the readers. Unfortunately, this random-number generator was not designed for concurrent access. This commit therefore removes both "static" keywords so that each reader and each writer gets its own random-number generator. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
