Subject: [PATCH 0/2] lockdep/selftests: Restore PREEMPT_RT task state
Date: Sat, 23 May 2026 20:51:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260523185123.17482-1-kmehltretter@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
the lockdep selftests deliberately run broken locking patterns. On
PREEMPT_RT, some of those paths also leave task-local RT state behind, and
dotest() has to restore that state before the next testcase.
Patch 1 restores current->migration_disabled on all PREEMPT_RT builds.
The missing restore is visible with CONFIG_SMP=n as a pinned-lock warning,
"bad: scheduling from the idle thread!" and a panic after the selftests.
Patch 2 restores current->sched_rt_mutex after WW-mutex selftests. Without
that, stale RT-mutex scheduler state produces rt_mutex_pre_schedule()
warnings in later testcases.
Both changes are in dotest()'s PREEMPT_RT cleanup path in
lib/locking-selftest.c.
Tested on x86_64 QEMU with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y,
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS=y, CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y and
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y. Both CONFIG_SMP=n and CONFIG_SMP=y configurations
boot to userspace without the pinned-lock panic or rt_mutex_pre_schedule()
warnings.
