Revision cccd32816506cbac3a4c65d9dff51b3125ef1a03 authored by Lukas Wunner on 15 September 2023, 07:55:39 UTC, committed by Ingo Molnar on 15 September 2023, 09:28:08 UTC
Commit: 5a5d7e9badd2 ("cpuidle: lib/bug: Disable rcu_is_watching() during WARN/BUG") amended warn_slowpath_fmt() to disable preemption until the WARN splat has been emitted. However the commit neglected to reenable preemption in the !fmt codepath, i.e. when a WARN splat is emitted without additional format string. One consequence is that users may see more splats than intended. E.g. a WARN splat emitted in a work item results in at least two extra splats: BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic (emitted by process_one_work()) BUG: scheduling while atomic (emitted by worker_thread() -> schedule()) Ironically the point of the commit was to *avoid* extra splats. ;) Fix it.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
