I've tried for days now to reproduce this on recent kernels and fail to do so. Ie. when using regular mutex_lock() instead of mutex_lock_nested() I no longer see any lockdep warning with linux-next. It could be that I'm chasing a lockdep ghost... > BTW: Is there a nice way to test this with nandsim in qemu? > I'd love being able to test all ubi attach code paths on my test setup. >From what I can tell 'nandsim' doesn't have a way to be defined in Device Tree, making it unsuitable to test the attachment of UBI in this way. However, QEMU does support emulating TI OMAP's OneNAND controller, eg. as part of the Nokia N810 hardware supported by qemu-system-arm, see https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/system/arm/nseries.html So we could use that and modify the device tree in Linux to have a MTD partition for UBI and 'compatible = "linux,ubi";' set therein: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arm/boot/dts/ti/omap/omap2420-n8x0-common.dtsi#n84 If you like I can prepare such a test setup. Is there a repository for MTD/UBI tests to be run on QEMU which I should contribute this to? Cheers Daniel
