How about the following? Regards, Boqun --------------------------------------->8 From: Boqun Feng Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2017 12:12:16 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: Print proper scenario if cross deadlock detected at acquisition time For a potential deadlock about CROSSRELEASE as follow: P1 P2 =========== ============= lock(A) lock(X) lock(A) commit(X) A: normal lock, X: cross lock , we could detect it at two places: 1. commit time: We have run P1 first, and have dependency A --> X in graph, and then we run P2, and find the deadlock. 2. acquisition time: We have run P2 first, and have dependency A --> X, in graph(because another P3 may run previously and is acquiring for lock X), and then we run P1 and find the deadlock. In current print_circular_lock_scenario(), for 1) we could print the right scenario and note that's a deadlock related to CROSSRELEASE, however for 2) we print the scenario as a normal lockdep deadlock. It's better to print a proper scenario related to CROSSRELEASE to help users find their bugs more easily, so improve this.
