Subject: [PATCH] workqueue: Log additional details when rejecting work
Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2025 16:43:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250214164349.13694-1-will@kernel.org> (raw)
Syzbot regularly runs into the following warning on arm64:
| WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 6023 at kernel/workqueue.c:2257 current_wq_worker kernel/workqueue_internal.h:69 [inline]
| WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 6023 at kernel/workqueue.c:2257 is_chained_work kernel/workqueue.c:2199 [inline]

The warning is probably because we are trying to queue work into a
destroyed workqueue, but the softirq context makes it hard to pinpoint
the problematic caller.
Extend the warning diagnostics to print both the function we are trying
to queue as well as the name of the workqueue.
