When debugging, it can be difficult to quickly find the ftrace dump
within the console log, which in turn makes it difficult to process it
independent of the rest of the console output. This commit therefore
copies the contents of the buffers into its own file to make it easier
to locate and process the ftrace dump. The original ftrace dump is still
available in the console log in cases because it can be more convenient
to process it in situ, for example, for scripts that process console
output as well as ftrace-dump data.
Also handle the case of multiple ftrace dumps potentially showing up in the
log. Example for a file like [1], it will extract as [2].

Currently, the kernel boot parameters specified by the kvm.sh --bootargs
parameter are placed near the beginning of the -append list that is
passed to qemu. This means that in the not-uncommon case of a kernel
boot parameter where the last argument wins, the --bootargs list overrides
neither the list in the .boot file nor the additional parameters supplied
by the rcutorture scripting.
This commit therefore places the kernel boot parameters specified by
the kvm.sh --bootargs parameter at the end of qemu's -append list.

The qemu argument -enable-kvm is duplicated because the qemu_args bash

For consecutive numbers the lscpu command collapses the output and just
shows the range with start and end. The processors are numbered that
way on POWER8.
$ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=8
$ lscpu | grep '^NUMA node'
NUMA node(s): 2
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-79
NUMA node8 CPU(s): 80-159
This causes the heuristic to detect the number threads per core, looking
for the number after the first comma, to fail, and QEMU aborts because of
invalid arguments.
$ lscpu | grep '^NUMA node0' | sed -e 's/^[^,-]*(,|\-)\([0-9]*\),.*$/\1/'
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-79
But the lscpu command shows the number of threads per core:
$ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=8
$ lscpu | grep 'Thread(s) per core'
Thread(s) per core: 8
$ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=off
$ lscpu | grep 'Thread(s) per core'
Thread(s) per core: 1
This commit therefore directly uses that value and replaces use of grep
with "sed -n" and its "p" command.

By default, the "panic" kernel parameter is zero, which causes the kernel
to loop indefinitely after a panic(). The rcutorture scripting will
eventually kill the corresponding qemu process, but only after waiting
for the full run duration plus a few minutes. This works, but delays
notifying the developer of the failure.
This commit therefore causes the rcutorture scripting to pass the
"panic=-1" kernel parameter, which caused the kernel to instead
unceremoniously shut down immediately. This in turn causes qemu to
terminate, so that if all of the runs in a given batch panic(), the
rcutorture scripting can immediately proceed to the next batch.

The rcutorture scripts' identify_qemu_vcpus() function expects `lscpu`
to have a "CPU: " line, for example:
CPU(s): 8
But different local language settings can give different results:
Processeur(s) : 8
As a result, identify_qemu_vcpus() may return an empty string, resulting
in the following warning (with the same local language settings):
kvm-test-1-run.sh: ligne 138 : test: : nombre entier attendu comme expression
This commit therefore changes identify_qemu_vcpus() to use getconf,
which produces local-language-independend output.

Although the rcutorture scripting now deals correctly with full-up
security-induced pointer obfuscation, it is still counter-productive for
kernel hackers who are analyzing console output. This commit therefore
sets the debug_boot_weak_hash kernel boot parameter, which enables
printing of weak-hashed pointers for torture-test runs.
Please note that this change applies only to runs initiated by the
kvm.sh scripting. If you are instead using modprobe and rmmod, it is
your responsibility to build and boot the underlying kernel to your taste.
Please note further that this change does not result in a security hole
in normal use. The rcutorture testing runs with a negligible userspace,
no networking, and no user interaction. Besides which, there is no data
of value that can be extracted from an rcutorture guest OS that could
not also be extracted from the host that this guest is running on.

On some (probably misconfigured) systems, the torture-test scripting
will cause qemu to complain about missing EFI firmware, often because
qemu is trying to traverse broken symbolic links to find that firmware.
Which is a bit silly given that the default torture-test guest OS has
but a single binary for its userspace, and thus is unlikely to do much
in the way of networking in any case.
This commit therefore avoids such problems by specifying "-net none"
to qemu unless the TORTURE_QEMU_INTERACTIVE environment variable is set
(for example, by having specified "--interactive" to kvm.sh), in which
case "-net nic -net user" is specified to qemu instead. Either choice
may be overridden by specifying the "-net" argument of your choice to
the kvm.sh "--qemu-args" parameter.

The bootparam_hotplug_cpu() bash function was checking for CPU-hotplug
kernel-boot parameters from --bootargs, but that check was specific to
rcutorture ("rcutorture\.onoff_"). This commit therefore makes this
check also work for locktorture ("torture\.onoff_").
Note that rcuperf does not do CPU-hotplug operations, so it is not
necessary to make a similar change for rcuperf.

In one of my rcutorture tests the TSC clocksource got marked unstable
due to a large difference in the TSC value. I'm not sure if the guest
run for a long time with disabled interrupts or if the host was very
busy and didn't schedule the guest for some time.
I took a look on the qemu/KVM options and decided to update the options:
- Use kvm{32|64} as CPU. We could probably use `host' (like ARM does)
for maximum available features but since we don't run any userland I'm
not sure if it makes any difference.
- Drop the "noapic" option. There is no history why the APIC was disabled,
I see no reason for it. Once old qemu versions fade away, we can add
"x2apic=on,tsc-deadline=on,hypervisor=on,tsc_adjust=on".
- Additional config options. It ensures that the kernel knowns that it
runs as a kvm guest and can use virt devices like the kvm-clock as
clocksource. The kvm-clock was the main motivation here.
- I didn't add a random HW device. It would make the random device ready
earlier (not it doesn't complete the initialisation at all) but I
doubt that there is any need for this.

The maxcpus= kernel boot parameter limits the number of CPUs brought
online at boot time, but it does nothing to prevent additional CPUs
from being brought up later. Placing a hard cap on the total number
of CPUs is instead the job of the nr_cpus= boot parameter. This commit
therefore switches the configfrag_boot_cpus() shell function from maxcpus=
to nr_cpus=. This commit also adds a nr_cpus=43 kernel parameter to RCU's
TREE01 test scenario, but retains the maxcpus=8 kernel parameter in order
to test the ability of RCU expedited grace periods to handle new CPUs
coming online for the first time during grace-period initialization.
Finally, this commit makes the torture scheduling allow maxcpus= to
override other means of specifying the number of CPUs to allow for.
This last works because the torture kernel modules size their workloads
based on the number of CPUs present at the start of the test, not the
ultimate number of CPUs.

The vmlinux image is available for all the architectures, and suitable
for running a KVM guest by QEMU, besides, we used to copy the vmlinux
to $resdir anyway. Therefore it makes sense to use it as the fallback
kernel image for rcutorture KVM tests.
This patch makes identify_boot_image() return vmlinux if
${TORTURE_BOOT_IMAGE} is not set on non-x86 architectures, also fixes
several places that hard-code "bzImage" as $KERNEL.
This also fixes a problem that PPC doesn't have a bzImage file as build
results.

Setting CONFIG_MAXSMP=y causes cpumasks to be moved offstack, which
introduces the possibility of NULL cpumask_var_t pointers. This commit
therefore enables CONFIG_MAXSMP=y in TREE01 to increase test coverage.
However, because CONFIG_MAXSMP=y implies 8192 CPUs, we need to use
the maxcpus= boot parameter to limit the number of CPUs to something
reasonable, which in turn requires updating the scripts to handle this.

Currently, the scripts hard-code arch/x86/boot/bzImage, which does not
work well for other architectures. This commit therefore provides a
identify_boot_image function that selects the correct bzImage location
relative to the top of the Linux source tree. This commit also adds a
--bootimage argument that allows selecting some other file, for example,
"vmlinux".
This change requires that the definition of the QEMU variable be
computed earlier in order to identify where to look for the boot image
when it comes time to copy it to the results directory.

The rcutorture tests run by default range from using one CPU to using
sixteen of them. Therefore, rcutorture testing could be sped up
significantly simply by running the kernels in parallel. Building
them in parallel is not all that helpful: "make -j" is usually a
better bet. So this commit takes a new "--cpus" argument that
specifies how many CPUs rcutorture is permitted to use for its
parallel runs. The default of zero does sequential runs as before.
The bin-packing is minimal, and will be grossly suboptimal for
some configurations. However, powers of two work reasonably well.
