I'm trying to debug some code where I need KASAN and lockdep enabled but I can't get past this splat unrelated to my code. I bisected it down to this commit: 32eb6bcfdda9da ("drm/i915: Make request allocation caches global") To make sure it wasn't a bad bisect, I removed the patch and the splat goes away. I add the patch back, and the splat returns. I did this several times, so I have a large confidence that this is the cause of the splat, or at least it is the commit that triggers whatever is going on. Perhaps all the cache updates caused the slab_mutex to be called inverse of the kernfs locking? Attached is my config. Also might be helpful, the splat happens: kernfs_fop_write() ops->write == sysfs_kf_write sysfs_kf_write() ops->store = slab_attr_store -- Steve Starting Network Manager...
