I forwarded this to Uladzislau and he offered to help. He said: : I can help with debugging. What i need is reproduce steps. Could you : please clarify if it is easy to hit and what kind of profiling triggers it? and : I do not think that Matthew Wilcox commits destroys it but... I see that : __vunmap() is invoked by the free_work() thus a caller is in atomic : context including IRQ context. > Specification of the machine where we captured the freeze: > Thinkpad T14 > CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 4750U > Kernel: 5.19.8-200.fc36.x86_64 > > Stacktrace of kworker/12:3 that is using all resources and causing the freeze: > > # Source Location Function Name Function Line > 0 arch/x86/include/asm/vdso/processor.h:13 rep_nop 11 > 1 arch/x86/include/asm/vdso/processor.h:18 cpu_relax 16 > 2 kernel/locking/qspinlock.c:514 native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath > 316 > 3 kernel/locking/qspinlock.c:316 native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath > N/A > 4 arch/x86/include/asm/paravirt.h:591 pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath > 588 > 5 arch/x86/include/asm/qspinlock.h:51 queued_spin_lock_slowpath 49 > 6 include/asm-generic/qspinlock.h:114 queued_spin_lock 107 > 7 include/linux/spinlock.h:185 do_raw_spin_lock 182 > 8 include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:134 __raw_spin_lock 130 > 9 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:154 _raw_spin_lock 152 > 10 include/linux/spinlock.h:349 spin_lock 347 > 11 mm/vmalloc.c:1805 find_vmap_area 1801 > 12 mm/vmalloc.c:2525 find_vm_area 2521 > 13 mm/vmalloc.c:2639 __vunmap 2628 > 14 mm/vmalloc.c:97 free_work 91 > 15 kernel/workqueue.c:2289 process_one_work 2181 > 16 kernel/workqueue.c:2436 worker_thread 2378 > 17 kernel/kthread.c:376 kthread 330 > 18 N/A ret_from_fork N/A > > The functions in the above shown stacktrace hardly change.
