Subject: [PATCH v2] x86/msr: Add write msr notrace to avoid the debug codes splash
Date: Mon, 17 Oct 2016 20:16:43 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1476706603-29346-1-git-send-email-wanpeng.li@hotmail.com> (raw)

 ===============================
 [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
 4.8.0+ #24 Not tainted
 -------------------------------
 ./arch/x86/include/asm/msr-trace.h:47 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

 other info that might help us debug this:

 RCU used illegally from idle CPU!
 rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
 RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
 no locks held by swapper/1/0.

  [<ffffffff9d492b95>] do_trace_write_msr+0x135/0x140
  [<ffffffff9d06f860>] native_write_msr+0x20/0x30
  [<ffffffff9d065fad>] native_apic_msr_eoi_write+0x1d/0x30
  [<ffffffff9d05bd1d>] smp_reschedule_interrupt+0x1d/0x30
  [<ffffffff9d8daec6>] reschedule_interrupt+0x96/0xa0

As Peterz pointed out:

| The thing is, many many smp_reschedule_interrupt() invocations don't
| actually execute anything much at all and are only send to tickle the
| return to user path (which does the actual preemption).

This patch add write msr notrace to avoid the debug codes splash.
