Subject: [PATCH 1/2] sched/debug: Don't disable IRQ when acquiring sched_debug_lock
Date:   Sat, 27 Mar 2021 19:25:28 -0400
Message-Id: <20210327232529.2349-1-longman@redhat.com>
Precedence: bulk

The sched_debug_lock was used only in print_cpu().  The
print_cpu() function has two callers - sched_debug_show() and
sysrq_sched_debug_show(). Both of them are invoked by user action
(sched_debug file and sysrq-t). As print_cpu() won't be called from
interrupt context at all, there is no point in disabling IRQ when
acquiring sched_debug_lock.

Besides, if the system has many cpus and the sched_debug_lock is somehow
busy (e.g. parallel sysrq-t), the system may hit a hard lockup panic, like

It is not to disable IRQ for so long that a hard lockup panic is
triggered. Fix that by not disabling IRQ when taking sched_debug_lock.
