Subject: Re: [PATCH] lockdep: Allow tuning tracing keys constant.

Sorry for the late reply.

Our use case is we will create workqueue for each ptr in one device abc
(Rename to abc here without leaking any information)

  ptr->wq = alloc_workqueue("abc_x_%d_y_%d_ptr_%d", WQ_HIGHPRI, 1, x, y, ptr);

where x is 0~7, y is 0~127, ptr is 0~4, and we have a maximum of 8 devices.
So there is a maximum 8x128x5x8=40960 workqueue.
I found the lockdep key is filled with

  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=2498, name=_rs.lock
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=2499, name=semaphore->lock
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=2500,
name=(wq_completion)abc_x_0_y_0_ptr_1
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=2501,
name=(work_completion)(&wp->write_work)
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=2502,
name=(wq_completion)abc_x_0_y_0_ptr_2
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=2503,
name=(wq_completion)abc_x_0_y_0_ptr_3
  ...
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=8189,
name=(wq_completion)abc_x_0_y_110_ptr_2
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=8190,
name=(wq_completion)abc_x_0_y_110_ptr_3
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=8191,
name=(wq_completion)abc_x_0_y_110_ptr_4
  register_lock_class: nr_lock_classes=8192,
name=(wq_completion)abc_x_0_y_110_ptr_5

It seems when we queue_work on one workqueue, it will occupy one lock
class. That's why 8k is not enough for our use case.

Regarding my patch, I just move the hard code value into config.
Increasing the value just increase one byte for the held_lock structure,
and 48 bytes for task_struct structure (around 6 u64 variables) in DEBUG
mode.

Let me know if you have a better way!

Thanks
Ryan
