Subject: [PATCH] clocksource/i8253: Acquire the lock disabled interrupts.
Date: Fri, 4 Apr 2025 15:31:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250404133116.p-XRWJXf@linutronix.de> (raw)
On x86 during boot, clockevent_i8253_disable() can be invoked via
x86_late_time_init -> hpet_time_init() -> pit_timer_init() which happens
with enabled interrupts.
If some of the old i8253 hardware is actually used then lockdep will
notice that i8253_lock is used in hardirq context. This causes lockdep
to complain because it observed the lock being acquired with enabled
interrupts and in hardirq context.
Make clockevent_i8253_disable() acquire the lock with disabled
interrupts.
Fixes: c8c4076723dac ("x86/timer: Skip PIT initialization on modern chipsets")
