Thank you for reporting. I was surprised that this warning did not show up.
Something has changed or only some config combination could trigger it ...
Any particular reason we are having this discussion privately?;-)


I did mention this initially - I didn't know if reporting issues in "security" domain is generally always open. Probably being very paranoid or silly of me...

Since this is not a security problem, you can post to public lists.
Anyway, here is a patch. Will you try?

Subject: [PATCH] tomoyo: Add tomoyo: Suppress RCU warning at list_for_each_entry_rcu().

John Garry has reported that allmodconfig kernel on arm64 causes flood of
"RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!" warning. I don't know what
change caused this warning, but this warning is safe because TOMOYO uses
SRCU lock instead. Let's suppress this warning by explicitly telling that
the caller is holding SRCU lock.

Reported-by: John Garry <john.garry@xxxxxxxxxx>

Yeah, this looks to have fixed it:

Thanks
