Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 07/19] lockdep: Explicitly flag likely false-positive report
Date: Tue, 11 May 2021 15:52:52 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210511225304.2893154-7-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210511225241.GA2893003@paulmck-ThinkPad-P17-Gen-1>
The reason that lockdep_rcu_suspicious() prints the value of debug_locks
is because a value of zero indicates a likely false positive. This can
work, but is a bit obtuse. This commit therefore explicitly calls out
the possibility of a false positive.
