Subject: [PATCH] softirq: reorder trace_softirqs_on to prevent lockdep splat
Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2018 21:11:00 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180427041100.133772-1-joelaf@google.com> (raw)
I'm able to reproduce a lockdep splat when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y and
CONFIG_PREEMPTIRQ_EVENTS=y.
$ echo 1 > /d/tracing/events/preemptirq/preempt_enable/enable

The problem is the softirqs annotation in lockdep goes out of sync with
the reality of the world that softirq is still off. This causes a
lockdep splat because the preempt_count_sub can call into a preemptoff
tracer or the trace events code, which inturn can call into lockdep
*before* softirqs are really turned back on, which can cause a softirqs
invalid annotation splat in lockdep.
The same issue was fixed in local_bh_disable_ip which has a comment so:
/*
* The preempt tracer hooks into preempt_count_add and will break
* lockdep because it calls back into lockdep after SOFTIRQ_OFFSET
* is set and before current->softirq_enabled is cleared.
* We must manually increment preempt_count here and manually
* call the trace_preempt_off later.
*/
I have done a similar change to the local_bh_enable path to fix it.
