Subject: [PATCH 1/2] sched/debug: fix 'schedstats=enable' cmdline option
Date: Tue,  7 Jun 2016 14:43:16 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <453775fe3433bed65731a583e228ccea806d18cd.1465322027.git.jpoimboe@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1465322027.git.jpoimboe@redhat.com>

The 'schedstats=enable' option doesn't work, and also produces the
following warning during boot:

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at /home/jpoimboe/git/linux/kernel/jump_label.c:61 static_key_slow_inc+0x8c/0xa0
  static_key_slow_inc used before call to jump_label_init

The problem is that it tries to update the 'sched_schedstats' static key
before jump labels have been initialized.

Changing jump_label_init() to be called earlier before
parse_early_param() wouldn't fix it: it would still fail trying to
poke_text() because mm isn't yet initialized.

Instead, just create a temporary '__sched_schedstats' variable which can
be copied to the static key later during sched_init() after jump labels
have been initialized.

Fixes: cb2517653fcc ("sched/debug: Make schedstats a runtime tunable that is disabled by default")
