good point. The basic issue is the 'virtual lock inversion' that occurs 
in the lock vs. release paths. [between taking the slock and taking the 
new sk_lock type]

The situation is like this: we construct 'complex' lock types [mutex, 
rwsem, sk_lock] out of 'primitive' lock types [spinlock, rwlock]. Both 
the complex type and the primite types exist separately, and might have 
lock-validator acquire/release operations. These locks can interact and 
if we do the complex lock acquire/release while holding the primitive 
lock, the validator sees inverse ordering between them.

For the mutex code i solved the inversion problem by using a 
raw_spinlock for the primitive type (which has no lockdep operations), 
hence the complex lock type.

But in this particular sk_lock case we can do it even more cleanly i 
think and can preserve the lockdep awareness of the primitive type too: 
by releasing the complex lock before taking the primitive lock in the 
release_sock() unlock path. The updated patch below does this - and thus 
i was able to remove the dropping of the primitive spinlock type.

it is not a problem that the release of the complex lock type does not 
happen inside the critical section: from the point where we release the 
complex lock-type _this_ context cannot take any other locks, so there 
are no dependencies missed.

As you can see, the lock validator can easily cover completely new lock 
types like sk_lock too, as long as the new lock type has some 
minimalistic "works like a lock" properties. (such as owner-does-unlock)

later on i'll try the same cleanup for the mutex code too - it should be 
possible. (that way the implementation of complex lock types can be 
lock-validator checked too)

Subject: lockdep, annotate sk_locks
From: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>

Teach sk_lock semantics to the lock validator. In the softirq path
the slock has mutex_trylock()+mutex_unlock() semantics, in the
process context sock_lock() case it has mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock()
semantics.

Thus we treat sock_owned_by_user() flagged areas as an exclusion
area too, not just those areas covered by a held sk_lock.slock.

Effect on non-lockdep kernels: minimal, sk_lock_sock_init() has
been turned into an inline function.
