Subject: [PATCH 3/5] sched: Fix an RCU warning in print_task()
Date: Thu, 22 Apr 2010 17:30:40 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BD01740.7050805@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4BD016F4.8060108@cn.fujitsu.com>

With CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y, a warning can be triggered:

  $ cat /proc/sched_debug

...
kernel/cgroup.c:1649 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
...

Both cgroup_path() and task_group() should be called with either
rcu_read_lock or cgroup_mutex held.
