Hi all,

after fixing task migrations for SCHED_DEADLINE, I started to see some
lockdep-related warnings that look like this:
[  794.428081] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 0 at /home/luca/Src/GRUB/linux-reclaiming/kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3407 lock_release+0x3f4/0x440()

(this happended on KVM, but I can trigger similar warnings on real hardware too).

This was not happening before my last patch, because push_dl_task() never migrated
any task, and always returned before calling find_lock_later_rq()...

Now, if I understand correctly the issue is that dl_task_timer() does:
	rq = task_rq_lock(p, &flags);
[...]
	if (has_pushable_dl_tasks(rq))
		push_dl_task(rq);
with task_rq_lock() that pins rq->lock and push_tl_task() that invokes
find_lock_later_rq() that unlocks rq->lock() while it is pinned.

I am not sure about how to fix this issue: as a first try, I did
diff --git a/kernel/sched/deadline.c b/kernel/sched/deadline.c
index 142df26..5b1ba95 100644
--- a/kernel/sched/deadline.c
+++ b/kernel/sched/deadline.c
@@ -668,8 +668,11 @@ static enum hrtimer_restart dl_task_timer(struct hrtimer *timer)
  	 * Queueing this task back might have overloaded rq, check if we need
  	 * to kick someone away.
  	 */
-	if (has_pushable_dl_tasks(rq))
+	if (has_pushable_dl_tasks(rq)) {
+		lockdep_unpin_lock(&rq->lock);
  		push_dl_task(rq);
+		lockdep_pin_lock(&rq->lock);
+	}
  #endif

  unlock:

This removes the warning, but I am not sure if it is the correct fix (is it
valid to unpin rq->lock, here?).

If someone can confirm that this is the correct approach, I'll test the patch a
little bit more and then I'll send a properly signed-off patch; otherwise, if
someone can suggest the correct approach I'll try it.



			Thanks,
				Luca
