kernel 2.6.21-1.3116.fc7 possible circular locking dependency

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

 



Upon booting 2.6.21 kernel on my HP500 notebook I get a kind of weid info message which I've pasted below. I'm using a custom 2.6.21-1.3116 kernel [I've included a small patch in drivers/input/serio/i8042.c to get my touchpad going (BZ #230595)] and reiserfs for filesystem. I'm not experiencing any problems with my system and I definitely have no ideea what this error(?) is about.
Any ideas?

=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.21-1.3116ics.fc7 #1
-------------------------------------------------------
chgrp/1221 is trying to acquire lock:
(&REISERFS_SB(s)->xattr_dir_sem){..--}, at: [<e00e6c6c>] reiserfs_chown_xattrs+0x4e/0x106 [reiserfs]

but task is already holding lock:
 (&inode->i_mutex){--..}, at: [<c0614c6a>] mutex_lock+0x21/0x24

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:
