[PATCH v2 2/9] bug: Disable rcu_is_watching() during WARN/BUG

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

 



In order to avoid WARN/BUG from generating nested or even recursive
warnings, force rcu_is_watching() true during
WARN/lockdep_rcu_suspicious().

Notably things like unwinding the stack can trigger rcu_dereference()
warnings, which then triggers more unwinding which then triggers more
warnings etc..
