Hi Tejun,
I'm debugging a crash on -rt that has the following:

The bug occurred on this line:
static void try_to_wake_up_local(struct task_struct *p)
{
struct rq *rq = task_rq(p);
BUG_ON(rq != this_rq()); <---- bug here
BUG_ON(p == current);
lockdep_assert_held(&rq->lock);
if (!raw_spin_trylock(&p->pi_lock)) {
raw_spin_unlock(&rq->lock);
raw_spin_lock(&p->pi_lock);
raw_spin_lock(&rq->lock);
}
Now in your code you have the comment:
* X: During normal operation, modification requires gcwq->lock and
* should be done only from local cpu. Either disabling preemption
* on local cpu or grabbing gcwq->lock is enough for read access.
* If GCWQ_DISASSOCIATED is set, it's identical to L.
struct worker has flags marked with X.
struct worker_pool has flags and idle_list marked with X.
spin_locks in -rt do not disable preemption, nor do they disable irqs,
but they do disable migration. If there's code that depends on the
spin_lock disabling preemption, we need to either change the code to not
require that, or explicitly disable preemption in the critical paths.
Note, if we explicitly disable preemption, we can not call spin_locks
within those locations as in -rt a spin_lock can block and schedule.
I've tried to figure out the code but I'm not familiar with it enough to
know where the issues are as of yet. I was hoping that you could point
me at the trouble areas that would cause us issues when spin_locks() do
not disable preemption.
Thanks!
