Needs more info in the change log. It also requires that
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKED=y is set.
Add this to the change log:
The issue was this:
Start with: preempt_count = 1 << SOFTIRQ_SHIFT
__local_bh_enable(cnt = 1 << SOFTIRQ_SHIFT) {
if (softirq_count() == (cnt && SOFTIRQ_MASK)) {
trace_softirqs_on() {
current->softirqs_enabled = 1;
}
}
preempt_count_sub(cnt) {
trace_preempt_on() {
tracepoint() {
rcu_read_lock_sched() {
// jumps into lockdep
Where preempt_count still has softirqs disabled, but
current->softirqs_enabled is true, and we get a splat.
This patch should be separate (as you had it before), and needs to be
submitted now because it already causes issues. We can add:
