[PATCH 2/3] mm: avoid slub allocation while holding list_lock
From: Yu Zhao
Date: Wed Sep 11 2019 - 20:30:08 EST
If we are already under list_lock, don't call kmalloc(). Otherwise we
will run into deadlock because kmalloc() also tries to grab the same
lock.
Instead, statically allocate bitmap in struct kmem_cache_node. Given
currently page->objects has 15 bits, we bloat the per-node struct by
4K. So we waste some memory but only do so when slub debug is on.
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
--------------------------------------------
mount-encrypted/4921 is trying to acquire lock:
(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: ___slab_alloc+0x104/0x437
but task is already holding lock:
(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock){-.-.}, at: __kmem_cache_shutdown+0x81/0x3cb
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock);
lock(&(&n->list_lock)->rlock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
