4.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Paul Burton <paul.burton@xxxxxxxxxx> commit d8550860d910c6b7b70f830f59003b33daaa52c9 upstream. When the scheduler sets TIF_NEED_RESCHED & we call into the scheduler from arch/mips/kernel/entry.S we disable interrupts. This is true regardless of whether we reach work_resched from syscall_exit_work, resume_userspace or by looping after calling schedule(). Although we disable interrupts in these paths we don't call trace_hardirqs_off() before calling into C code which may acquire locks, and we therefore leave lockdep with an inconsistent view of whether interrupts are disabled or not when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING & CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP are both enabled. Without tracing this interrupt state lockdep will print warnings such as the following once a task returns from a syscall via syscall_exit_partial with TIF_NEED_RESCHED set: [ 49.927678] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 49.934445] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3687 check_flags.part.41+0x1dc/0x1e8 [ 49.946031] DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(current->hardirqs_enabled) [ 49.946355] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: init Not tainted 4.10.0-00439-gc9fd5d362289-dirty #197 [ 49.963505] Stack : 0000000000000000 ffffffff81bb5d6a 0000000000000006 ffffffff801ce9c4 [ 49.974431] 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 000000000000004a [ 49.985300] ffffffff80b7e487 ffffffff80a24498 a8000000ff160000 ffffffff80ede8b8 [ 49.996194] 0000000000000001 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000077c8030c [ 50.007063] 000000007fd8a510 ffffffff801cd45c 0000000000000000 a8000000ff127c88 [ 50.017945] 0000000000000000 ffffffff801cf928 0000000000000001 ffffffff80a24498 [ 50.028827] 0000000000000000 0000000000000001 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 [ 50.039688] 0000000000000000 a8000000ff127bd0 0000000000000000 ffffffff805509bc [ 50.050575] 00000000140084e0 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 0000000000040a00 [ 50.061448] 0000000000000000 ffffffff8010e1b0 0000000000000000 ffffffff805509bc [ 50.072327] ...

This is done before invoking schedule() following the work_resched label because: 1) Interrupts are disabled regardless of the path we take to reach work_resched() & schedule(). 2) Performing the tracing here avoids the need to do it in paths which disable interrupts but don't call out to C code before hitting a path which uses the RESTORE_SOME macro that will call trace_hardirqs_on() or trace_hardirqs_off() as appropriate. We call trace_hardirqs_on() using the TRACE_IRQS_ON macro before calling syscall_trace_leave() for similar reasons, ensuring that lockdep has a consistent view of state after we re-enable interrupts.
