Hi Jens, I had this warning fire on 6.16-rc3 whilst running fstests. I don't know what test caused it - I run 64 tests in parallel over a couple of hundred loop devices, so there's lots of stuff going on all the time.
This warning fired when xfs_repair was running on some kind of DM device: [ 7339.374977] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 7339.378576] WARNING: CPU: 49 PID: 2034647 at block/genhd.c:144 bdev_count_inflight+0x7c/0x90 [ 7339.382933] Modules linked in: [ 7339.385169] CPU: 49 UID: 0 PID: 2034647 Comm: xfs_repair Not tainted 6.16.0-rc3-dgc+ #342 PREEMPT(full) [ 7339.390668] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014 [ 7339.396211] RIP: 0010:bdev_count_inflight+0x7c/0x90 [ 7339.399196] Code: ff 48 8b 94 16 90 00 00 00 01 d3 48 ff c0 eb bc 45 85 ff 78 15 85 db 78 1a 44 01 fb 89 d8 5b 41 5e 41 5f 5d c3 cc cc cc cc cc <0f> 0b 45 31 ff 85 db 79 e6 0f 0b 31 db eb e0 0f 1f 44 00 00 90 90 [ 7339.409039] RSP: 0018:ffffc900100bf978 EFLAGS: 00010286 [ 7339.412126] RAX: 0000000000000040 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000040 [ 7339.417910] RDX: 0000000000000040 RSI: 0000000000000040 RDI: ffffffff82f911c8 [ 7339.421923] RBP: ffffc900100bf990 R08: 0000000000000c00 R09: ffff889878c81400 [ 7339.425940] R10: 0000000000000000 R11: ffffffff823dc150 R12: 00000001006b668c [ 7339.433641] R13: ffff889849c98600 R14: ffff889849c98600 R15: 00000000ffffffff [ 7339.437308] FS: 00007f383ad55680(0000) GS:ffff88a09a4b1000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 7339.441577] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 7339.444716] CR2: 00007f3820000020 CR3: 0000001886ec6000 CR4: 0000000000350ef0 [ 7339.447851] Call Trace: [ 7339.449436] <TASK> [ 7339.450683] bdev_start_io_acct+0x58/0xc0 [ 7339.452661] dm_io_acct+0x60/0x100 [ 7339.454471] dm_submit_bio_remap+0x4f/0x100 [ 7339.456592] __map_bio+0x125/0x260 [ 7339.458423] dm_submit_bio+0x562/0xd70 [ 7339.459996] ? kmem_cache_alloc_noprof+0x188/0x320 [ 7339.462501] ? __blk_flush_plug+0xe6/0x140 [ 7339.464613] __submit_bio+0x12c/0x210 [ 7339.467010] submit_bio_noacct_nocheck+0x12e/0x2a0 [ 7339.469166] ? iov_iter_extract_pages+0x152/0x220 [ 7339.476238] submit_bio_noacct+0x2fd/0x380 [ 7339.478354] submit_bio+0xe5/0xf0 [ 7339.480182] submit_bio_wait+0x54/0xc0 [ 7339.481722] blkdev_direct_IO+0x415/0x480 [ 7339.483977] ? __pfx_submit_bio_wait_endio+0x10/0x10 [ 7339.487079] blkdev_read_iter+0x9d/0x170 [ 7339.494123] vfs_read+0x269/0x2f0 [ 7339.494131] __x64_sys_pread64+0x71/0xc0 [ 7339.494134] x64_sys_call+0x28ca/0x2f60 [ 7339.498789] do_syscall_64+0x6b/0x1f0 [ 7339.498794] ? exc_page_fault+0x70/0xa0 [ 7339.498798] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e [ 7339.505840] RIP: 0033:0x7f383dd039ee [ 7339.505845] Code: 08 0f 85 f5 4b ff ff 49 89 fb 48 89 f0 48 89 d7 48 89 ce 4c 89 c2 4d 89 ca 4c 8b 44 24 08 4c 8b 4c 24 10 4c 89 5c 24 08 0f 05 <c3> 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 0f 1f 80 00 00 00 00 48 83 ec 08 [ 7339.505848] RSP: 002b:00007f383ad548e8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000011 [ 7339.505851] RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007f383ad55680 RCX: 00007f383dd039ee [ 7339.505854] RDX: 0000000000000200 RSI: 000055f7bb191400 RDI: 0000000000000004 [ 7339.538888] rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected expedited stalls on CPUs/tasks: { [ 7339.541277] RBP: 0000000000000200 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 7339.541282] R10: 000000001c200000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 00000000000e1000 [ 7339.544844] 49-....
