Hello, Christian, I *think* this should fix it. Can you please verify? Thanks! ------ 8< ------ mem_cgroup_migrate() uses local_irq_disable/enable() but can be called with irq disabled from migrate_page_copy(). This ends up enabling irq while holding a irq context lock triggering the following lockdep warning. Fix it by using irq_save/restore instead. ================================= [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] 4.7.0-rc1+ #52 Tainted: G W --------------------------------- inconsistent {IN-SOFTIRQ-W} -> {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} usage. kcompactd0/151 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes: (&(&ctx->completion_lock)->rlock){+.?.-.}, at: [<000000000038fd96>] aio_migratepage+0x156/0x1e8 {IN-SOFTIRQ-W} state was registered at: [<00000000001a8366>] __lock_acquire+0x5b6/0x1930 [<00000000001a9b9e>] lock_acquire+0xee/0x270 [<0000000000951fee>] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x66/0xb0 [<0000000000390108>] aio_complete+0x98/0x328 [<000000000037c7d4>] dio_complete+0xe4/0x1e0 [<0000000000650e64>] blk_update_request+0xd4/0x450 [<000000000072a1a8>] scsi_end_request+0x48/0x1c8 [<000000000072d7e2>] scsi_io_completion+0x272/0x698 [<000000000065adb2>] blk_done_softirq+0xca/0xe8 [<0000000000953f80>] __do_softirq+0xc8/0x518 [<00000000001495de>] irq_exit+0xee/0x110 [<000000000010ceba>] do_IRQ+0x6a/0x88 [<000000000095342e>] io_int_handler+0x11a/0x25c [<000000000094fb5c>] __mutex_unlock_slowpath+0x144/0x1d8 [<000000000094fb58>] __mutex_unlock_slowpath+0x140/0x1d8 [<00000000003c6114>] kernfs_iop_permission+0x64/0x80 [<000000000033ba86>] __inode_permission+0x9e/0xf0 [<000000000033ea96>] link_path_walk+0x6e/0x510 [<000000000033f09c>] path_lookupat+0xc4/0x1a8 [<000000000034195c>] filename_lookup+0x9c/0x160 [<0000000000341b44>] user_path_at_empty+0x5c/0x70 [<0000000000335250>] SyS_readlinkat+0x68/0x140 [<0000000000952f8e>] system_call+0xd6/0x270 irq event stamp: 971410 hardirqs last enabled at (971409): [<000000000030f982>] migrate_page_move_mapping+0x3ea/0x588 hardirqs last disabled at (971410): [<0000000000951fc4>] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x3c/0xb0 softirqs last enabled at (970526): [<0000000000954318>] __do_softirq+0x460/0x518 softirqs last disabled at (970519): [<00000000001495de>] irq_exit+0xee/0x110 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 ---- lock(&(&ctx->completion_lock)->rlock); <Interrupt> lock(&(&ctx->completion_lock)->rlock); *** DEADLOCK *** 3 locks held by kcompactd0/151: #0: (&(&mapping->private_lock)->rlock){+.+.-.}, at: [<000000000038fc82>] aio_migratepage+0x42/0x1e8 #1: (&ctx->ring_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<000000000038fc9a>] aio_migratepage+0x5a/0x1e8 #2: (&(&ctx->completion_lock)->rlock){+.?.-.}, at: [<000000000038fd96>] aio_migratepage+0x156/0x1e8 stack backtrace: CPU: 20 PID: 151 Comm: kcompactd0 Tainted: G W 4.7.0-rc1+ #52 00000001c6cbb730 00000001c6cbb7c0 0000000000000002 0000000000000000 00000001c6cbb860 00000001c6cbb7d8 00000001c6cbb7d8 0000000000114496 0000000000000000 0000000000b517ec 0000000000b680b6 000000000000000b 00000001c6cbb820 00000001c6cbb7c0 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 040000000184ad18 0000000000114496 00000001c6cbb7c0 00000001c6cbb820 Call Trace: ([<00000000001143d2>] show_trace+0xea/0xf0) ([<000000000011444a>] show_stack+0x72/0xf0) ([<0000000000684522>] dump_stack+0x9a/0xd8) ([<000000000028679c>] print_usage_bug.part.27+0x2d4/0x2e8) ([<00000000001a71ce>] mark_lock+0x17e/0x758) ([<00000000001a784a>] mark_held_locks+0xa2/0xd0) ([<00000000001a79b8>] trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x140/0x1c0) ([<0000000000326026>] mem_cgroup_migrate+0x266/0x370) ([<000000000038fdaa>] aio_migratepage+0x16a/0x1e8) ([<0000000000310568>] move_to_new_page+0xb0/0x260) ([<00000000003111b4>] migrate_pages+0x8f4/0x9f0) ([<00000000002c507c>] compact_zone+0x4dc/0xdc8) ([<00000000002c5e22>] kcompactd_do_work+0x1aa/0x358) ([<00000000002c608a>] kcompactd+0xba/0x2c8) ([<000000000016b09a>] kthread+0x10a/0x110) ([<000000000095315a>] kernel_thread_starter+0x6/0xc) ([<0000000000953154>] kernel_thread_starter+0x0/0xc) INFO: lockdep is turned off.
