Subject: perf: recursive locking of ctx->mutex
Hi all,
While fuzzing with trinity inside a KVM tools guest running the latest -next
kernel I've stumbled on the following spew:
[ 460.391146] =============================================
[ 460.391146] [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
[ 460.391146] 4.1.0-rc1-next-20150429-sasha-00037-g3e011d3-dirty #2192 Not tainted
[ 460.391146] ---------------------------------------------
[ 460.391146] trinity-main/9652 is trying to acquire lock:
[ 460.391146] (&ctx->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: perf_event_ctx_lock_nested (kernel/events/core.c:965)
[ 460.391146] Mutex: counter: 1 owner: None
[ 460.391146]
[ 460.391146] but task is already holding lock:
[ 460.391146] (&ctx->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: perf_event_init_task (kernel/events/core.c:8732 kernel/events/core.c:8800)
[ 460.391146] Mutex: counter: 0 owner: trinity-main
[ 460.391146]
[ 460.391146] other info that might help us debug this:
[ 460.391146] Possible unsafe locking scenario:
[ 460.391146]
[ 460.391146] CPU0
[ 460.391146] ----
[ 460.391146] lock(&ctx->mutex);
[ 460.391146] lock(&ctx->mutex);
[ 460.391146]
[ 460.391146] *** DEADLOCK ***
[ 460.391146]
[ 460.391146] May be due to missing lock nesting notation
[ 460.391146]
[ 460.391146] 2 locks held by trinity-main/9652:
