Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/5] kernel: use tasklist_read_lock_any() when locking tasklist in irq context
The following locations may acquire tasklist_lock in either process or
irq/softirq contexts:
- send_sigio(): may be called in any context from kill_fasync()
(examples: process context from pipe_read(), softirq context from
n_tty_receive_buf(), hardirq context from rtc_interrupt())
- send_sigurg(): may be called from process or softirq context
(network receive is typically processed in softirq, but packets can be
queued up while sockets are being locked and the backlog processed from
process context as the socket gets unlocked)
- kill_pgrp(): called in process context from job_control(), pty_resize()
or in softirq context through n_tty_receive_buf()
or even in hardirq context from arch/um/drivers/line.c winch_interrupt()
- posix_cpu_timer_schedule(): called through cpu_timer_fire(),
in process context (from posix_cpu_timer_set()) or
in hardirq context (from run_posix_cpu_timers())
- sysrq debugging features: handle_sysrq() runs in multiple contexts and
calls into send_sig_all(), debug_show_all_locks(), normalize_rt_tasks(),
print_rq().
- arch/blackfin/kernel/trace.c decode_address(): another debugging feature,
may be called from any contexts.
Annotate such locations with tasklist_read_{lock,unlock}_any().
