Howlett <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx> Thanks for your patch! This fixes the WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at init/main.c:992 start_kernel+0x2f0/0x480 I was seeing during boot on Renesas RZ/A1 and RZ/A2 since commit cfeb6ae8bcb96ccf ("maple_tree: disable mas_wr_append() when other readers are possible") in v6.5. However, this causes lots of new warnings on e.g. R-Car M2-W, which wasn't affected before, like: +BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/sched/completion.c:111 +in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: swapper/0 +preempt_count: 0, expected: 0 +no locks held by swapper/0/1. +CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Tainted: G W 6.6.0-rc1-koelsch-02359-g9a5bed6a8bd8 #1864 +Hardware name: Generic R-Car Gen2 (Flattened Device Tree) + unwind_backtrace from show_stack+0x10/0x14 + show_stack from dump_stack_lvl+0x68/0x90 + dump_stack_lvl from __might_resched+0x1b0/0x22c + __might_resched from __wait_for_common+0x38/0x170 + __wait_for_common from kernel_init+0x10/0x130 + kernel_init from ret_from_fork+0x14/0x30 +Exception stack(0xf0815fb0 to 0xf0815ff8) +5fa0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 +5fc0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 +5fe0: 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000013 00000000 and +BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:580 +in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 1, name: systemd +preempt_count: 0, expected: 0 +no locks held by systemd/1. +CPU: 1 PID: 1 Comm: systemd Tainted: G W N 6.6.0-rc1-koelsch-02359-g9a5bed6a8bd8 #1864 +Hardware name: Generic R-Car Gen2 (Flattened Device Tree) + unwind_backtrace from show_stack+0x10/0x14 + show_stack from dump_stack_lvl+0x68/0x90 + dump_stack_lvl from __might_resched+0x1b0/0x22c + __might_resched from __mutex_lock+0x34/0x3a8 + __mutex_lock from mutex_lock_nested+0x18/0x20 + mutex_lock_nested from do_epoll_wait+0x220/0x5ac + do_epoll_wait from sys_epoll_wait+0x44/0x6c + sys_epoll_wait from ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c +Exception stack(0xf0815fa8 to 0xf0815ff0) +5fa0: beff75e0 00000004 00000004 beff75e0 0000003b ffffffff +5fc0: beff75e0 00000004 ffffffff 000000fc 00000000 ffffffff 0000003b 00000004 +5fe0: 000000fc beff75b8 b6ef8511 b6e75786 Gr{oetje,eeting}s, Geert -- Geert Uytterhoeven -- There's lots of Linux beyond ia32 -- geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker.
