I think this is a false positive, because for lockdep local->rx_skb_queue->lock and local->skb_queue->lock is the same lock (struct sk_buff_head->lock). Hence warn when we do not spin_lock_irq in ieee80211_rx_handlers(), but take lock from interrupt handler in ieee80211_tx_status_irqsafe()-> skb_queue_tail() Stanislaw > ======================================================================= > > [ 25.660371] ================================= > [ 25.660376] [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] > [ 25.660379] 2.6.37-Linus-03737-g0c21e3a-dirty #251 > [ 25.660382] --------------------------------- > [ 25.660384] inconsistent {HARDIRQ-ON-W} -> {IN-HARDIRQ-W} usage. > [ 25.660388] kworker/0:0/0 [HC1[1]:SC0[0]:HE0:SE1] takes: > [ 25.660390] (&(&list->lock)->rlock#5){?.-...}, at: [<ffffffff812a2746>] > skb_queue_tail+0x26/0x60 > [ 25.660401] {HARDIRQ-ON-W} state was registered at: > [ 25.660403] [<ffffffff8107f305>] __lock_acquire+0xb25/0x1cc0 > [ 25.660409] [<ffffffff81080a73>] lock_acquire+0x93/0x130 > [ 25.660413] [<ffffffff813446cc>] _raw_spin_lock+0x2c/0x40 > [ 25.660418] [<ffffffffa02b3777>] ieee80211_rx_handlers+0x27/0x1c80 [mac80211] > [ 25.660444] [<ffffffffa02b5608>] > ieee80211_prepare_and_rx_handle+0x238/0x900 [mac80211] > [ 25.660455] [<ffffffffa02b5fea>] ieee80211_rx+0x31a/0x940 [mac80211] > [ 25.660465] [<ffffffffa029cd51>] ieee80211_tasklet_handler+0xc1/0xd0 [mac80211] > [ 25.660474] [<ffffffff8104f993>] tasklet_action+0x73/0x120 > [ 25.660479] [<ffffffff8105048e>] __do_softirq+0xce/0x200 > [ 25.660483] [<ffffffff81003ccc>] call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 > [ 25.660488] [<ffffffff81005e25>] do_softirq+0x85/0xc0 > [ 25.660492] [<ffffffff810506cd>] irq_exit+0x8d/0xa0 > [ 25.660496] [<ffffffff81005971>] do_IRQ+0x61/0xe0 > [ 25.660500] [<ffffffff813452d3>] ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf > [ 25.660504] [<ffffffff81179cd7>] sysfs_permission+0x47/0x80 > [ 25.660510] [<ffffffff81126bfa>] link_path_walk+0x1ea/0xdb0 > [ 25.660515] [<ffffffff81127568>] link_path_walk+0xb58/0xdb0 > [ 25.660519] [<ffffffff81127ab6>] do_path_lookup+0x56/0x130 > [ 25.660523] [<ffffffff81127f92>] user_path_at+0x52/0xa0 > [ 25.660526] [<ffffffff8111e634>] vfs_fstatat+0x34/0x70 > [ 25.660532] [<ffffffff8111e6a6>] vfs_stat+0x16/0x20 > [ 25.660536] [<ffffffff8111ea4f>] sys_newstat+0x1f/0x40 > [ 25.660540] [<ffffffff81002d7b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b > [ 25.660546] irq event stamp: 393974 > [ 25.660548] hardirqs last enabled at (393971): [<ffffffff8100c03a>] > default_idle+0x5a/0xf0 > [ 25.660553] hardirqs last disabled at (393972): [<ffffffff81345227>] > save_args+0x67/0x70 > [ 25.660557] softirqs last enabled at (393974): [<ffffffff810501de>] > _local_bh_enable+0xe/0x10 > [ 25.660562] softirqs last disabled at (393973): [<ffffffff8105062d>] > irq_enter+0x6d/0x80 > [ 25.660566] > [ 25.660567] other info that might help us debug this: > [ 25.660570] 1 lock held by kworker/0:0/0: > [ 25.660572] #0: (&(&rtlpriv->locks.irq_th_lock)->rlock){-.-...}, at: > [<ffffffffa02f0daf>] _rtl_pci_interrupt+0x5f/0x890 [rtlwifi] > [ 25.660585] > [ 25.660586] stack backtrace: > [ 25.660589] Pid: 0, comm: kworker/0:0 Tainted: G W > 2.6.37-Linus-03737-g0c21e3a-dirty #251 > [ 25.660592] Call Trace: > [ 25.660594] <IRQ> [<ffffffff8107e152>] ?
