Subject: [PATCH v3.18 v4.4] arm64: Add trace_hardirqs_off annotation in ret_to_user
Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2018 17:55:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1537923347-24107-1-git-send-email-linux@roeck-us.net> (raw)

From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

commit db3899a6477a4dccd26cbfb7f408b6be2cc068e0 upstream.

When a kernel is built with CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS the following warning
is produced when entering userspace for the first time:

  WARNING: at /work/Linux/linux-2.6-aarch64/kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3519

  possible reason: unannotated irqs-off.

This happens because we disable interrupts in ret_to_user before calling
schedule() in work_resched. This patch adds the necessary
trace_hardirqs_off annotation.

Without this patch and CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS enabled, the mentioned warning
is seen in v3.18.y and v4.4.y. The patch applies cleanly to both releases.
I confirmed that the problem is gone after applying it.
