Re: [PATCH v2] workqueue: Add rcu lock check after work execute end

[Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>]

Hello,

I massaged the description for clarity and applied to wq/for-6.9.

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] workqueue: Add rcu lock check at the end of work item
 execution

Currently the workqueue just checks the atomic and locking states after work
execution ends. However, sometimes, a work item may not unlock rcu after
acquiring rcu_read_lock(). And as a result, it would cause rcu stall, but
the rcu stall warning can not dump the work func, because the work has
finished.

In order to quickly discover those works that do not call rcu_read_unlock()
after rcu_read_lock(), add the rcu lock check.

Use rcu_preempt_depth() to check the work's rcu status. Normally, this value
is 0. If this value is bigger than 0, it means the work are still holding
rcu lock. If so, print err info and the work func.

tj: Reworded the description for clarity. Minor formatting tweak.
