[patch 01/13] lockdep: fix mismatched lockdep_depth/curr_chain_hash

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Gregory Haskins <[email protected]>

patch 3aa416b07f0adf01c090baab26fb70c35ec17623 in mainline.

It is possible for the current->curr_chain_key to become inconsistent
with the current index if the chain fails to validate.  The end result
is that future lock_acquire() operations may inadvertently fail to find
a hit in the cache resulting in a new node being added to the graph for
every acquire.
