Christoph,
 please don't send kernel bug reports just to my personal email address. 
There are kernel mailing lists, and there are maintainers, and they all 
want to know about them - not just one person who has a lot to do anyway. 

Sending them just to me means that unless it's one of "my" areas, not a 
lot will be done, but also that 'google' etc won't see it and index it.

Eric - looks exactly like that bug Mikko reported but couldn't reproduce,
bugzilla entry 13729:

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13729

it got closed because Mikko says he can't repro it since -rc3, but clearly 
it should be re-opened.

Looks like something 'event' is either incorrectly 'put' twice (so that 
you end up trying to free it before it's all done), or some corruption of 
the '&event->private_data_list'. Either way, it's likely a locking error, 
although an outright refcounting bug is possible.

For example, fsnotify_remove_priv_from_event() will remove the private 
data event from the list, but what if there are _multiple_ entries with 
the same 'group' entry? If so, it will remove just the first one. So it 
looks like the bug could trigger if somebody just adds event private data 
for the same group to the same event twice. Can that happen?

Hmm. Looking closer, that shouldn't much matter. Each time we added an 
entry in private_data_list, we would have done a 
'fsnotify_get_event(event)' due to adding it to the 'golder->event_list'.

That said, there does seem to be some dubious code there. For example, 
in 'inotify_ignored_and_remove_idr()', we do this:

        fsnotify_add_notify_event(group, ignored_event, fsn_event_priv);

        /* did the private data get added? */
        if (list_empty(&fsn_event_priv->event_list))
                inotify_free_event_priv(fsn_event_priv);

and we do it without holding any locks at all. So as far as I can tell, 
what could happen is that 'fsnotify_add_notify_event()' actually adds the 
private event (fsn_event_priv), but then before we check that the 
event_list is empty, another user (on another CPU, or preempted on the 
same CPU - Christoph has both PREEMPT and SMP on) comes along, picks up 
the private event and frees it (and re-uses it).

That looks like a pretty small window, but preemption could make it much 
bigger. Who knows? Maybe there are other things like that.

And maybe I'm just full of sh*t, and the above can't even happen for some 
reason I'm missing.

I can happen, but ONLY for the staticly declared q_overflow_event in
notification.c.  If the refcnt on that ever hits 0 to trigger this bug
we are in some serious dodo.

Actually you look correct in your assessment that there is a race here.
I guess I could imagine a way to make it panic like this, but I would
have expected a different problem in that after I freed this memory
(which wasn't mine any more) the other task which owned this memory
would have to still be able to run list_for_each_entry, but find that
it's group was no longer there.  Not sure how could screw up the group,
but not the list entries.

I'll fix this race tonight or in the morning.

I'm downloading and installing KDE, as I guess kde uses inotify pretty
hard since both Mikko and Christoph were using kde.

I'm using gnome.

I've added the backtrace to the Bugzilla mentioned in this thread.
