I meet a deadlock during cpu hotplug. The code path is bellow: Call Trace: [<ffffffff816e373c>] dump_stack+0x19/0x1b [<ffffffff810fd85a>] validate_chain.isra.43+0xf4a/0x1120 [<ffffffff810236c9>] ? sched_clock+0x9/0x10 [<ffffffff810ca8bd>] ? sched_clock_local+0x1d/0x80 [<ffffffff810caa88>] ? sched_clock_cpu+0xa8/0x100 [<ffffffff810fe846>] __lock_acquire+0x3c6/0xb70 [<ffffffff810caa88>] ? sched_clock_cpu+0xa8/0x100 [<ffffffff810ff7e2>] lock_acquire+0xa2/0x1f0 [<ffffffff813ba132>] ? acpi_scan_is_offline+0x2c/0xa3 [<ffffffff816e7a14>] mutex_lock_nested+0x94/0x3f0 [<ffffffff813ba132>] ? acpi_scan_is_offline+0x2c/0xa3 [<ffffffff813ba132>] ? acpi_scan_is_offline+0x2c/0xa3 [<ffffffff810fe0fd>] ? trace_hardirqs_on+0xd/0x10 [<ffffffff813ba132>] acpi_scan_is_offline+0x2c/0xa3 --> LOCK (DEADLOCK) [<ffffffff813fdac8>] acpi_container_offline+0x32/0x4e [<ffffffff81469e59>] container_offline+0x19/0x20 [<ffffffff81462955>] device_offline+0x95/0xc0 [<ffffffff813b9e53>] acpi_bus_offline+0xbc/0x126 --> LOCK [<ffffffff813bb83d>] acpi_device_hotplug+0x236/0x46b [<ffffffff813b4c75>] acpi_hotplug_work_fn+0x1e/0x29 [<ffffffff810a6c10>] process_one_work+0x220/0x710 [<ffffffff810a6ba4>] ? process_one_work+0x1b4/0x710 [<ffffffff810a721b>] worker_thread+0x11b/0x3a0 [<ffffffff810a7100>] ? process_one_work+0x710/0x710 [<ffffffff810b061d>] kthread+0xed/0x100 [<ffffffff810b0530>] ? insert_kthread_work+0x80/0x80 [<ffffffff816f663c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff810b0530>] ? insert_kthread_work+0x80/0x80 This deadlock was introduced by commit caa73ea ("ACPI / hotplug / driver core: Handle containers in a special way"). In this patch, we just introduced a lockless version __acpi_scan_is_offline() for acpi_container_offline(), to avoid this deadlock.
