[PATCH 0/6] attempts at catching mmu_notifer deadlocks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

So this is my 2nd attempt (more successful I hope also with CI) at
catching the mmu notifier deadlock using lockdep. Ingredients:
- cross-release patches resurrect (so that lockdep see through
  flush_workqueue).
- fake lock context for mmu notifier callbacks (similar trick to
  fs_reclaim)
- bunch of sanity checks because hey! paranoia is good

Intentionally not yet submitting to core/mm since I want to figure out
whether this is indeed useful for us first.

Cheers, Daniel

Daniel Vetter (6):
  locking/lockdep: restore cross-release checks
  kthread: finer-grained lockdep/cross-release completion
  lockdep: Remove GFP_NOLOCKDEP annotation
  mm: Check if mmut notifier callbacks are allowed to fail
  mm, notifier: Catch sleeping/blocking for !blockable
  mm, notifier: Add a lockdep map for invalidate_range_start
