    MIPS: Fix IRQ tracing & lockdep when rescheduling · d8550860
    Paul Burton authored
    
    
    When the scheduler sets TIF_NEED_RESCHED & we call into the scheduler
    from arch/mips/kernel/entry.S we disable interrupts. This is true
    regardless of whether we reach work_resched from syscall_exit_work,
    resume_userspace or by looping after calling schedule(). Although we
    disable interrupts in these paths we don't call trace_hardirqs_off()
    before calling into C code which may acquire locks, and we therefore
    leave lockdep with an inconsistent view of whether interrupts are
    disabled or not when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING & CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP are
    both enabled.
    
    Without tracing this interrupt state lockdep will print warnings such
    as the following once a task returns from a syscall via
    syscall_exit_partial with TIF_NEED_RESCHED set:

    Fix this by using the TRACE_IRQS_OFF macro to call trace_hardirqs_off()
    when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS is enabled. This is done before invoking
    schedule() following the work_resched label because:
    
     1) Interrupts are disabled regardless of the path we take to reach
        work_resched() & schedule().
    
     2) Performing the tracing here avoids the need to do it in paths which
        disable interrupts but don't call out to C code before hitting a
        path which uses the RESTORE_SOME macro that will call
        trace_hardirqs_on() or trace_hardirqs_off() as appropriate.
    
    We call trace_hardirqs_on() using the TRACE_IRQS_ON macro before calling
    syscall_trace_leave() for similar reasons, ensuring that lockdep has a
    consistent view of state after we re-enable interrupts.
