Current code looks like this:
WARN_ON(lock_policy_rwsem_write(cpu));
update_policy_cpu(policy, new_cpu);
unlock_policy_rwsem_write(cpu);
{lock|unlock}_policy_rwsem_write(cpu) takes/releases policy->cpu's rwsem.
Because cpu is changing with the call to update_policy_cpu(), the
unlock_policy_rwsem_write() will release the incorrect lock.
The right solution would be to take rwsem lock/unlock for both old and new cpu.
This patch fixes this bug by taking both locks directly instead of calling
lock_policy_rwsem_write().

Hi Rafael,
Probably we can get this patch in for 3.12? The second one can go in 3.13.
These are compile tested only at my end. Tixy reported these and probably can
give his tested-by once he is done testing them.

lock_policy_rwsem_{read|write}() currently has return type of int but it always
return zero and hence its return type must be void instead. This patch makes its
return type void and fixes all users of it as well.

I thought possibly something like that, then wondered if threads could
take the locks in different orders at the same time, leading to
deadlock? So as I wasn't familiar with cpufreq I thought I'd leave it to
the experts to worry about :-)
This patch contains a bug, see inline comment below. Even with that
fixed it still doesn't work for me. I get a lockdep warning (below). I
have verified the cpu and locks are different locks, and it's not a
harmless false positive because I later get the message 'cpufreq:
__cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare: Failed to stop governor'.

If I take mainline code and just change the line above to:
up_write(&per_cpu(cpu_policy_rwsem, (per_cpu(cpufreq_cpu_data,
cpu))->last_cpu));
then the big_little cpufreq driver works for me.

You've just overwritten policy->cpu with cpu. I tried using
policy->last_cpu to fix that, but it still doesn't work for me (giving
the lockdep warning I mentioned.) If I change the code to just lock the
original policy->cpu lock only, then all is fine.
Also, this locking is now just happening around policy->cpu update,
whereas before this change, it was locked for the whole of
update_policy_cpu, i.e. cpufreq_frequency_table_update_policy_cpu and
the notifier callbacks. Is that change of lock coverage OK?

That would be same as: up_write(&per_cpu(cpu_policy_rwsem, policy->last_cpu));

Fixed my patch now.. find attached.. It mentions why lock for last cpu is
enough here. Copied that here too..

Yeah, the rwsem is only required for updating policy's fields and so that
should be okay.

The commit log to that patch still mentions taking both locks.
The code itself fixes the lockdep errors I had, so

But what about reads, like in cpufreq_frequency_table_update_policy_cpu
which is called immediately after the unlocking writes? Should that not
be covered by a reader lock?
And after that call, policy is passed into blocking_notifier_call_chain,
do those callbacks not want to look at policy fields? Or are they going
to do there own locking?
Or is update_policy_cpu itself meant to be called with a read lock held?
(It doesn't appear to be as the semaphore 'activiy' field of the lock is
zero).
Or is there some other non-obvious synchronisation method which means
the policy object can't change?
This is the first time I've looked at this code, so feel free just to
say 'it's complicated, just trust me, I'm the expert, I know what I'm
doing'...

policy->cpu is used at multiple places outside of cpufreq.c and cpufreq
core can't really put read locks for those accesses. Things will turn bad
only if cpufreq core has got these races where we are trying to access
a struct or pointer that belonged to the last policy->cpu, which is updated
now.. For example the case of lock you reported.. And so lock is required
only for those places..

No.
