Subject: [PATCH RFC v2 22/24] hazptrtorture: Fix hazptr ownership issue
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 17:18:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260716001809.11084-22-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <23e34c2e-67fd-45da-b130-e70a131a59ea@paulmck-laptop>

From: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>

hazptr_torture_acquire is invoked from IPI on remote CPUs. It needs to
immediately detach the hazptr from its local task so it can be released
from other tasks.

Without this fix, the hazptrtorture test fails loudly with a OOPS. It
passes with the fix applied.

[ This applies on top of linux-rcu dev branch at
  commit e5ee2ea2d00ae5a0ca53ccf9c9100f2357e1bd08 ]

[ paulmck: s/hazptr_detach_from_task/hazptr_detach/ per Mathieu. ]
