From b8dfff975c370912c7ac633ca3e4a812dcd38f96 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 21 Oct 2019 08:38:00 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] torture: Handle systems lacking the mpstat command The rcutorture scripting uses the mpstat command to determine how much the system is being used, and adjusts make's -j argument accordingly. However, mpstat isn't installed by default, so it would be good if the scripting does something useful when mpstat isn't present. This commit therefore makes the scripts assumes that if mpstat is not present, they are free to use all the CPUs. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
