In the following commit: 7675104990ed ("sched: Implement lockless wake-queues") we gained lockless wake-queues. The -RT kernel managed to lockup itself with those. There could be multiple attempts for task X to enqueue it for a wakeup _even_ if task X is already running. The reason is that task X could be runnable but not yet on CPU. The the task performing the wakeup did not leave the CPU it could performe multiple wakeups. With the proper timming task X could be running and enqueued for a wakeup. If this happens while X is performing a fork() then its its child will have a !NULL `wake_q` member copied. This is not a problem as long as the child task does not participate in lockless wakeups :) Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@suse.de> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Fixes: 7675104990ed ("sched: Implement lockless wake-queues") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151221171710.GA5499@linutronix.de Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
