Message-ID: <20110421034057.GA10536@redhat.com> (raw)
I just hit this..
=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.39-rc4+ #13
---------------------------------------------
trinity/11336 is trying to acquire lock:
(&(&hashbin->hb_spinlock)->rlock){......}, at: [<ffffffffa0653074>] irias_seq_show+0x4f/0x13b [irda]
but task is already holding lock:
(&(&hashbin->hb_spinlock)->rlock){......}, at: [<ffffffffa0653669>] irias_seq_start+0x1e/0x59 [irda]
other info that might help us debug this:
2 locks held by trinity/11336:
#0: (&p->lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff811562b6>] seq_read+0x3d/0x367
#1: (&(&hashbin->hb_spinlock)->rlock){......}, at: [<ffffffffa0653669>] irias_seq_start+0x1e/0x59 [irda]
stack backtrace:

irias_seq_start does this ..
996 {
997 spin_lock_irq(&irias_objects->hb_spinlock);
998
999 return *pos ? irias_seq_idx(*pos - 1) : SEQ_START_TOKEN;
1000 }
and then unlocks it in irias_seq_stop.
meanwhile in the seq_show iterator ...
1029 /* Careful for priority inversions here !
1030 * All other uses of attrib spinlock are independent of
1031 * the object spinlock, so we are safe. Jean II */
1032 spin_lock(&obj->attribs->hb_spinlock);
My reading of that comment suggests that the two locks aren't the same,
so is this just missing a lockdep annotation ?
