Subject: [PATCH RT] arm/unwind: fail on unwind in irq disabled regions
Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2014 17:24:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1390580663-28869-1-git-send-email-bigeasy@linutronix.de> (raw)

Mostly unwind is done with irqs enabled however SLUB may call it with
irqs disabled while creating a new SLUB cache.

I had system freeze while loading a module which called
kmem_cache_create() on init. That means SLUB's __slab_alloc() disabled
interrupts and then

->new_slab_objects()
 ->new_slab()
  ->setup_object()
   ->setup_object_debug()
    ->init_tracking()
     ->set_track()
      ->save_stack_trace()
       ->save_stack_trace_tsk()
        ->walk_stackframe()
         ->unwind_frame()
          ->unwind_find_idx()
           =>spin_lock_irqsave(&unwind_lock);

I would prefer not to turn this into a raw lock so for now it will just
fail if it is called with irqs disabled which might return a few "empty"
traces…
