From 3c6b0c1c28184038d90dffe8eb542bedcb8ccf98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Thu, 30 Nov 2023 14:27:29 +0100 Subject: srcu: Use try-lock lockdep annotation for NMI-safe access. It is claimed that srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() NMI-safe. However it triggers a lockdep if used from NMI because lockdep expects a deadlock since nothing disables NMIs while the lock is acquired. This is because commit f0f44752f5f61 ("rcu: Annotate SRCU's update-side lockdep dependencies") annotates synchronize_srcu() as a write lock usage. This helps to detect a deadlocks such as srcu_read_lock(); synchronize_srcu(); srcu_read_unlock(); The side effect is that the lock srcu_struct now has a USED usage in normal contexts, so it conflicts with a USED_READ usage in NMI. But this shouldn't cause a real deadlock because the write lock usage from synchronize_srcu() is a fake one and only used for read/write deadlock detection. Use a try-lock annotation for srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() to avoid lockdep complains if used from NMI.
