It does not make sense to me. If lockdep is disabled, then debug_locks is 0. So no complain should happen from networking. I was about to send following patch, please check it solves the issue. ? (It certainly did for me, once I forced a lockdep splat loading a buggy module) Thanks From: Eric Dumazet <eduma...@google.com> Valdis reported tons of stack dumps caused by WARN_ON() in sock_owned_by_user() This test needs to be relaxed if/when lockdep disables itself. Note that other lockdep_sock_is_held() callers are all from rcu_dereference_protected() sections which already are disabled if/when lockdep has been disabled.
