[PATCH] mm: multi-gen LRU: Move lru_gen_add_mm() out of IRQ-off region.

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

 



lru_gen_add_mm() has been added within an IRQ-off region in the commit
mentioned below. The other invocations of lru_gen_add_mm() are not within
an IRQ-off region.
The invocation within IRQ-off region is problematic on PREEMPT_RT
because the function is using a spin_lock_t which must not be used
within IRQ-disabled regions.

The other invocations of lru_gen_add_mm() occur while task_struct::alloc_lock
is acquired.
Move lru_gen_add_mm() after interrupts are enabled and before
task_unlock().
