Subject: [PATCH] locking/lock_events: Use this_cpu_add() when necessary
Date:   Wed, 22 May 2019 11:39:53 -0400
Message-Id: <20190522153953.30341-1-longman@redhat.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The kernel test robot has reported that the use of __this_cpu_add()
causes bug messages like:

  BUG: using __this_cpu_add() in preemptible [00000000] code: ...

This is only an issue on preempt kernel where preemption can happen
in the middle of the multi-instruction percpu operation. It is not an
issue on x86 as the percpu operation is a single instruction.  The lock
events code is updated to use the slower this_cpu_add() for non-x86
preempt kernel or when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is defined.

Fixes: a8654596f0371 ("locking/rwsem: Enable lock event counting")

+ *
+ * In !preempt kernel, we can just use __this_cpu_{inc|add}() as preemption
+ * won't happen in the middle of the percpu operation. In preempt kernel,
+ * it depends on whether the percpu operation is atomic (1 instruction)
+ * or not. We know x86 generates a single instruction to do percpu op, but
+ * we can't guarantee that for other architectures. We also need to use
+ * the slower this_cpu_{inc|add}() when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is defined
+ * to make the checking code happy.
