[PATCH v2] rcu: fix a deadlock caused by not release rcu_node->lock

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

 



From: Yanfei Xu <yanfei.xu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

rcu_node->lock isn't released in rcu_print_task_stall() if the rcu_node
don't contain tasks which blocking the GP. However this rcu_node->lock
will be used again in rcu_dump_cpu_stacks() soon while the ndetected is
non-zero. As a result the cpu will hung by this deadlock.

Fixes: c583bcb8f5ed ("rcu: Don't invoke try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled")
