Any idea what goes wrong here? New one on me! Is it possible to get a stack trace of the hang, perhaps via one form or another of sysrq-T? Such a stack trace would likely include synchronize_rcu_tasks(), synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude(), or synchronize_rcu_tasks_trace() followed by synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic(), rcu_tasks_one_gp(), and one of rcu_tasks_wait_gp(), rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp(), or rcu_tasks_wait_gp(). At this point in the boot sequence, there is only one online CPU, correct? I have seen recent non-boot hangs within synchronize_rcu_tasks() due to some other task getting stuck in do_exit() between its calls to exit_tasks_rcu_start() and exit_tasks_rcu_finish(). The symptom of this is that the aforementioned stack trace includes synchronize_srcu(). I would not expect much in the way of exiting tasks that early in the boot sequence, but who knows?
