If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 140f39b7b50f14fcee9adb139c1529da59fa779e Author: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Sep 24 15:11:55 2020 -0700 rcu: Don't invoke try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled [ Upstream commit c583bcb8f5edd48c1798798e341f78afb9bf4f6f ] The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function requires that interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts disabled from rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not enabled as expected" diagnostic. This commit therefore updates rcu_print_task_stall() to accumulate a list of the first few tasks while holding the current leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock, then releases that lock and only then uses try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to attempt to obtain per-task detailed information. Of course, as soon as ->lock is released, the task might exit, so the get_task_struct() function is used to prevent the task structure from going away in the meantime.
