Subject: [PATCH 4/3] locking/lockdep: Improve the deadlock scenario print for sync and read lock
Lock scenario print is always a weak spot of lockdep splats. Improvement
can be made if we rework the dependency search and the error printing.
However without touching the graph search, we can improve a little for
the circular deadlock case, since we have the to-be-added lock
dependency, and know whether these two locks are read/write/sync.
In order to know whether a held_lock is sync or not, a bit was
"stolen" from ->references, which reduce our limit for the same lock
class nesting from 2^12 to 2^11, and it should still be good enough.
Besides, since we now have bit in held_lock for sync, we don't need the
"hardirqoffs being 1" trick, and also we can avoid the __lock_release()
if we jump out of __lock_acquire() before the held_lock stored.
With these changes, a deadlock case evolved with read lock and sync gets
a better print-out from:
[...] Possible unsafe locking scenario:
[...]
[...] CPU0 CPU1
[...] ---- ----
[...] lock(srcuA);
[...] lock(srcuB);
[...] lock(srcuA);
[...] lock(srcuB);
to
[...] Possible unsafe locking scenario:
[...]
[...] CPU0 CPU1
[...] ---- ----
[...] rlock(srcuA);
[...] lock(srcuB);
[...] lock(srcuA);
[...] sync(srcuB);
