 			      reboot_cpu is s[mp]#### with #### being the processor
 					to be used for rebooting.
 
+	refperf.holdoff= [KNL]
+			Set test-start holdoff period.  The purpose of
+			this parameter is to delay the start of the
+			test until boot completes in order to avoid
+			interference.
+
+	refperf.loops= [KNL]
+			Set the number of loops over the synchronization
+			primitive under test.  Increasing this number
+			reduces noise due to loop start/end overhead,
+			but the default has already reduced the per-pass
+			noise to a handful of picoseconds on ca. 2020
+			x86 laptops.
+
+	refperf.nreaders= [KNL]
+			Set number of readers.  The default value of -1
+			selects N, where N is roughly 75% of the number
+			of CPUs.  A value of zero is an interesting choice.
+
+	refperf.nruns= [KNL]
+			Set number of runs, each of which is dumped onto
+			the console log.
+
+	refperf.readdelay= [KNL]
+			Set the read-side critical-section duration,
+			measured in microseconds.
+
+	refperf.shutdown= [KNL]
+			Shut down the system at the end of the performance
+			test.  This defaults to 1 (shut it down) when
+			rcuperf is built into the kernel and to 0 (leave
+			it running) when rcuperf is built as a module.
+
+	refperf.verbose= [KNL]
+			Enable additional printk() statements.
+
 	relax_domain_level=
 			[KNL, SMP] Set scheduler's default relax_domain_level.
