Subject: [PATCH RFC v5 00/21] DEPT(Dependency Tracker)
I'm gonna re-add RFC for a while at Ted's request. But hard testing is
needed to find false alarms for now that there's no false alarm with my
system. I'm gonna look for other systems that might produce false
alarms. And it'd be appreciated if you share it when you see any alarms
with yours.

Hi Linus and folks,
I've been developing a tool for detecting deadlock possibilities by
tracking wait/event rather than lock(?) acquisition order to try to
cover all synchonization machanisms. It's done on v5.17-rc7 tag.
https://github.com/lgebyungchulpark/linux-dept/commits/dept1.18_on_v5.17-rc7
Benifit:
0. Works with all lock primitives.
1. Works with wait_for_completion()/complete().
2. Works with 'wait' on PG_locked.
3. Works with 'wait' on PG_writeback.
4. Works with swait/wakeup.
5. Works with waitqueue.
6. Multiple reports are allowed.
7. Deduplication control on multiple reports.
8. Withstand false positives thanks to 6.
9. Easy to tag any wait/event.
Future work:
0. To make it more stable.
1. To separates Dept from Lockdep.
2. To improves performance in terms of time and space.
3. To use Dept as a dependency engine for Lockdep.
4. To add any missing tags of wait/event in the kernel.
5. To deduplicate stack trace.
How to interpret reports:
1. E(event) in each context cannot be triggered because of the
W(wait) that cannot be woken.
2. The stack trace helping find the problematic code is located
in each conext's detail.
Thanks,
Byungchul

Changes from v4:
1. Fix some bugs that produce false alarms.
2. Distinguish each syscall context from another *for arm64*.
3. Make it not warn it but just print it in case Dept ring
buffer gets exhausted. (feedback from Hyeonggon)
4. Explicitely describe "EXPERIMENTAL" and "Dept might produce
false positive reports" in Kconfig. (feedback from Ted)
Changes from v3:
1. Dept shouldn't create dependencies between different depths
of a class that were indicated by *_lock_nested(). Dept
normally doesn't but it does once another lock class comes
in. So fixed it. (feedback from Hyeonggon)
2. Dept considered a wait as a real wait once getting to
__schedule() even if it has been set to TASK_RUNNING by wake
up sources in advance. Fixed it so that Dept doesn't consider
the case as a real wait. (feedback from Jan Kara)
3. Stop tracking dependencies with a map once the event
associated with the map has been handled. Dept will start to
work with the map again, on the next sleep.
Changes from v2:
1. Disable Dept on bit_wait_table[] in sched/wait_bit.c
reporting a lot of false positives, which is my fault.
Wait/event for bit_wait_table[] should've been tagged in a
higher layer for better work, which is a future work.
(feedback from Jan Kara)
2. Disable Dept on crypto_larval's completion to prevent a false
positive.
Changes from v1:
1. Fix coding style and typo. (feedback from Steven)
2. Distinguish each work context from another in workqueue.
3. Skip checking lock acquisition with nest_lock, which is about
correct lock usage that should be checked by Lockdep.
Changes from RFC:
1. Prevent adding a wait tag at prepare_to_wait() but __schedule().
(feedback from Linus and Matthew)
2. Use try version at lockdep_acquire_cpus_lock() annotation.
3. Distinguish each syscall context from another.
