This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled rcu: Fix to include first blocked task in stall warning to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: rcu-fix-to-include-first-blocked-task-in-stall-warni.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e37c0b6edf2b0a5b7fc19debac2349fad8dd9674 Author: Yanfei Xu <yanfei.xu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun May 16 00:45:11 2021 +0800 rcu: Fix to include first blocked task in stall warning [ Upstream commit e6a901a44f76878ed1653626c9ff4cfc5a3f58f8 ] The for loop in rcu_print_task_stall() always omits ts[0], which points to the first task blocking the stalled grace period. This in turn fails to count this first task, which means that ndetected will be equal to zero when all CPUs have passed through their quiescent states and only one task is blocking the stalled grace period. This zero value for ndetected will in turn result in an incorrect "All QSes seen" message: rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: rcu: Tasks blocked on level-1 rcu_node (CPUs 12-23): (detected by 15, t=6504 jiffies, g=164777, q=9011209) rcu: All QSes seen, last rcu_preempt kthread activity 1 (4295252379-4295252378), jiffies_till_next_fqs=1, root ->qsmask 0x2 BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/uaccess.h:156 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, non_block: 0, pid: 70613, name: msgstress04 INFO: lockdep is turned off.
