which is
static int netlink_dump(struct sock *sk)
{
...
len = cb->dump(skb, cb);
if (len > 0) {
--> mutex_unlock(nlk->cb_mutex);
skb_queue_tail(&sk->sk_receive_queue, skb);
sk->sk_data_ready(sk, len);
return 0;
}
and
void debug_mutex_unlock(struct mutex *lock)
{
if (unlikely(!debug_locks))
return;
--> DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->owner != current_thread_info());
DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->magic != lock);
so it's complaining that cb_mutex is being release by a thread other than
the one which acquired it. I'm unable to reproduce it with their config,
naturally.
Can anyone see any conceivable way in which this can happen? There's some
moderately tricky-looking rewriting of the ->cb_mutex pointer happening in
there. If that were to happen concurrently then this might happen?
otoh, we're seeing several fairly unrelated whacko things coming out of the
lock debugging code in that kernel and I'm wondering if there's some common
bug which is causing false positives.
