Hi all,
I have observed hangs after crash on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ board
when a panic kernel is loaded. I attached a hardware debugger and found
out that all CPU cores were stopped except one which was stuck in the
idle thread. It seems that irq_set_irqchip_state() may sleep, which is
definitely not safe after a kernel panic.
If I'm right, then this is broken in general, but I have only ever seen
it on RPi 3 Model B+ (even RPi3 Model B works fine), so the issue may
be more subtle. FWIW the code for 32-bit ARM seems to work just fine
without this code in machine_kexec_mask_interrupts():
/*
* First try to remove the active state. If this
* fails, try to EOI the interrupt.
*/
ret = irq_set_irqchip_state(i, IRQCHIP_STATE_ACTIVE, false);
I wonder what breaks if this call to irq_set_irqchip_state() is removed.
For reference, here is a stack trace of the process which originally
triggered the panic:
