Initial booting is setting the task flag to idle (PF_IDLE) by the call path sched_init() -> init_idle(). Having the task idle and calling call_rcu() in kernel/rcu/tiny.c means that TIF_NEED_RESCHED will be set. Subsequent calls to any cond_resched() will enable IRQs, potentially earlier than the IRQ setup has completed. Recent changes have caused just this scenario and IRQs have been enabled early. This causes a warning later in start_kernel() as interrupts are enabled before they are fully set up. Fix this issue by setting the PF_IDLE flag later in the boot sequence. Although the boot task was marked as idle since (at least) d80e4fda576d, I am not sure that it is wrong to do so. The forced context-switch on idle task was introduced in the tiny_rcu update, so I'm going to claim this fixes |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
