While running reboot tests w/ a specific set of USB devices (and slub_debug enabled), I found that once every few hours my device would be crashed with a stack that looked like this: [ 14.012445] BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, modprobe/2091 [ 14.012460] lock: 0xffffffc0cb055978, .magic: ffffffc0, .owner: cryption contexts: %lu/%lu [ 14.012460] /1025536097, .owner_cpu: 0 [ 14.012466] CPU: 0 PID: 2091 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 4.4.79 #352 [ 14.012468] Hardware name: Google Kevin (DT) [ 14.012471] Call trace: [ 14.012483] [<....>] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x160 [ 14.012487] [<....>] show_stack+0x20/0x28 [ 14.012494] [<....>] dump_stack+0xb4/0xf0 [ 14.012500] [<....>] spin_dump+0x8c/0x98 [ 14.012504] [<....>] spin_bug+0x30/0x3c [ 14.012508] [<....>] do_raw_spin_lock+0x40/0x164 [ 14.012515] [<....>] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x64/0x74 [ 14.012521] [<....>] __wake_up+0x2c/0x60 [ 14.012528] [<....>] async_completed+0x2d0/0x300 [ 14.012534] [<....>] __usb_hcd_giveback_urb+0xc4/0x138 [ 14.012538] [<....>] usb_hcd_giveback_urb+0x54/0xf0 [ 14.012544] [<....>] xhci_irq+0x1314/0x1348 [ 14.012548] [<....>] usb_hcd_irq+0x40/0x50 [ 14.012553] [<....>] handle_irq_event_percpu+0x1b4/0x3f0 [ 14.012556] [<....>] handle_irq_event+0x4c/0x7c [ 14.012561] [<....>] handle_fasteoi_irq+0x158/0x1c8 [ 14.012564] [<....>] generic_handle_irq+0x30/0x44 [ 14.012568] [<....>] __handle_domain_irq+0x90/0xbc [ 14.012572] [<....>] gic_handle_irq+0xcc/0x18c Investigation using kgdb() found that the wait queue that was passed into wake_up() had been freed (it was filled with slub_debug poison). I analyzed and instrumented the code and reproduced. My current belief is that this is happening: 1. async_completed() is called (from IRQ). Moves "as" onto the completed list. 2. On another CPU, proc_reapurbnonblock_compat() calls async_getcompleted(). Blocks on spinlock. 3. async_completed() releases the lock; keeps running; gets blocked midway through wake_up(). 4. proc_reapurbnonblock_compat() => async_getcompleted() gets the lock; removes "as" from completed list and frees it. 5. usbdev_release() is called. Frees "ps". 6. async_completed() finally continues running wake_up(). ...but wake_up() has a pointer to the freed "ps". The instrumentation that led me to believe this was based on adding some trace_printk() calls in a select few functions and then using kdb's "ftdump" at crash time. The trace follows (NOTE: in the trace below I cheated a little bit and added a udelay(1000) in async_completed() after releasing the spinlock because I wanted it to trigger quicker): <...>-2104 0d.h2 13759034us!: async_completed at start: as=ffffffc0cc638200 mtpd-2055 3.... 13759356us : async_getcompleted before spin_lock_irqsave mtpd-2055 3d..1 13759362us : async_getcompleted after list_del_init: as=ffffffc0cc638200 mtpd-2055 3.... 13759371us+: proc_reapurbnonblock_compat: free_async(ffffffc0cc638200) mtpd-2055 3.... 13759422us+: async_getcompleted before spin_lock_irqsave mtpd-2055 3.... 13759479us : usbdev_release at start: ps=ffffffc0cc042080 mtpd-2055 3.... 13759487us : async_getcompleted before spin_lock_irqsave mtpd-2055 3.... 13759497us!: usbdev_release after kfree(ps): ps=ffffffc0cc042080 <...>-2104 0d.h2 13760294us : async_completed before wake_up(): as=ffffffc0cc638200 To fix this problem we can just move the wake_up() under the ps->lock. There should be no issues there that I'm aware of.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
