commit7e6b3fcc9cupstream. Lockdep reports this deadlock log: osnoise: could not start sampling thread ============================================ WARNING: possible recursive locking detected -------------------------------------------- CPU0 ---- lock(cpu_hotplug_lock); lock(cpu_hotplug_lock); Call Trace: <TASK> print_deadlock_bug+0x282/0x3c0 __lock_acquire+0x1610/0x29a0 lock_acquire+0xcb/0x2d0 cpus_read_lock+0x49/0x120 stop_per_cpu_kthreads+0x7/0x60 start_kthread+0x103/0x120 osnoise_hotplug_workfn+0x5e/0x90 process_one_work+0x44f/0xb30 worker_thread+0x33e/0x5e0 kthread+0x206/0x3b0 ret_from_fork+0x31/0x50 ret_from_fork_asm+0x11/0x20 </TASK> This is the deadlock scenario: osnoise_hotplug_workfn() guard(cpus_read_lock)(); // first lock call start_kthread(cpu) if (IS_ERR(kthread)) { stop_per_cpu_kthreads(); { cpus_read_lock(); // second lock call. Cause the AA deadlock } } It is not necessary to call stop_per_cpu_kthreads() which stops osnoise kthread for every other CPUs in the system if a failure occurs during hotplug of a certain CPU. For start_per_cpu_kthreads(), if the start_kthread() call fails, this function calls stop_per_cpu_kthreads() to handle the error. Therefore, similarly, there is no need to call stop_per_cpu_kthreads() again within start_kthread(). So just remove stop_per_cpu_kthreads() from start_kthread to solve this issue.
