I'm running an arm64 kernel in a qemu guest and I hit this
DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON and this patch removes the warning. The
interrupts_enabled(reqs) should reflect the irq->enabled state of the
kgdb test process when it hit the breakpoint, and that should be the
same as the current->hardirqs_enabled flag

Rework code to drop the 'if (interrupts_enabled(regs))' before
trace_hardirqs_*() in function do_debug_exception().

We don't know why current->hardirqs_enabled and interrupts_enabled(regs)
don't match.

(I know nothing about kgdb, please forgive the stupid questions:)

Where does this 'irq->enabled state of the kgdb test process' come from?
What happens if it takes an interrupt, then you single-step the 
interrupt handler? (How can any state in memory get updated...)

You took an IRQ from kgdbts_break_test(). This causes the CPU to mask 
interrupts, we tell trace_hardirqs_off() about this in the entry asm.

 From arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S:
| el1_irq:
|       kernel_entry 1
|       enable_da_f
| #ifdef CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS
|       bl     trace_hardirqs_off
| #endif
|
|       irq_handler


Could you faddr2line 'el1_irq+0xa8/0x1c0'? I bet that is the 
'enable_da_f' line which re-enables debug, just _before_ we update call 
trace_hardirqs_off.

The problem is debug exceptions can jump in this gap and see an 
inconsistent trace_hardirqs_off/regs state.

Taking a debug-exception from irq-unmasked code will cause IRQs to be 
disabled. This code updates trace_hardirqs_off().

But, taking a debug-exception from irq-masked code doesn't change 
anything. Making this trace_hardirqs_off() unconditional means you now 
overwrite the original location where irqs were masked.


Would making sure debug exceptions can't see current->hardirqs_enabled 
and interrupts_enabled(regs) as having different states fix this problem?

If so moving the 'enable_da_f' line in el1_irq below the #ifdef block 
should fix it.


Thanks,

James

I used objdump and found this:

reverting this RFC patch and did this patch that you suggested (see below) and
I couldn't see the DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON.

I'm sorry for my ignorance but, but moving enable_da_f below the
#ifdef block solved
the problem. But I'm not sure that I understand why it solved it. Can
you please elaborate
a bit more ?

Should I move the 'enable_da_f' line in el0_ia below the #ifdef block as well?

Cheers,
Anders
