If this approach is reasonable, my guess would be that Frederic will pull it into his context-tracking series, perhaps using a revert of this patch to maintain sanity in the near term. If this approach is unreasonable, well, that is Murphy for you! For the x86 idle part, my feeling is still that the rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() need to be pushed deeper into the code. Perhaps an ongoing process as the idle loop continues to be dug deeper? Thanx, Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------ commit cd338be719a0a692e0d50e1a8438e1f6c7165d9c Author: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue May 17 21:00:04 2022 -0700 rcu: Apply noinstr to rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() This commit applies the "noinstr" tag to the rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() functions, which are invoked from portions of the idle loop that cannot be instrumented. These tags require reworking the rcu_eqs_enter() and rcu_eqs_exit() functions that these two functions invoke in order to cause them to use normal assertions rather than lockdep. In addition, within rcu_idle_exit(), the raw versions of local_irq_save() and local_irq_restore() are used, again to avoid issues with lockdep in uninstrumented code. This patch is based in part on an earlier patch by Jiri Olsa, discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic Weisbecker, earlier changes by Thomas Gleixner, and off-list discussions with Yonghong Song.
