[PATCH] ARM: fix inbalance of hardirqs trace before return to user or exception

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

 



From: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch introduces macro of trace_ret_hardirqs_on, which will
call asm_trace_hardirqs_on if I flag in the stored CPSR is zero.

The patch adds trace_ret_hardirqs_on before returning to user
or exception mode once disable_irq was called explicitly, which does
fix the inbalance of hardirqs trace and make lockdep happy. The patch
does fix this kind of lockdep warning below:

The patch refers to implementation on x86, suggested by Peter.
