Subject: perf: cgroup: INFO: suspicious RCU usage
Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2013 12:02:58 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <50FE0F72.6070501@huawei.com> (raw)

Got this warning as soon as I ran "perf stat -a -e faults -G cgrp1 -- sleep 1"

This is a long-standing bug. At least I can trigger the same warning in 3.4 kernel.
There were several bug reports before, but no one seems to care?

===============================
[ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
3.8.0-rc2-default+ #17 Not tainted
-------------------------------
include/linux/cgroup.h:534 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:
