Subject: Triggering BUG on SIGSEGV signaling
Date: Tue, 24 Nov 2015 12:09:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2830783.CAkrTrFBlp@ws-stein> (raw)

On our system (i.MX35 based, so ARMv6) is running a v3.10.47-rt50 kernel, I get the following output from serial console when the application tries to dereference a NULL pointer:
> BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/rtmutex.c:659

Reading the backtrace it seems that might_sleep() in rt_spin_lock_fastlock() raises this dump. The interrupts are apparently disabled.
Following the code path it seems to me, that (at lease in this case) ARCH_RT_DELAYS_SIGNAL_SEND must be supported on ARM too which AFAICS is for sending signals while being in_atomic.
Any comments on this? I wonder what makes this so special it didn't came up yet.

Best regards,
Alexander
