cond_resched();It's good to have cond_resched() in those places but it must be done more carefully, as the code path may be called from the non-atomic context, too. That is, it must have a check of atomic argument, and cond_resched() is applied only when atomic==false.
But I still wonder how this gets a RCU stall out of sudden. Looking through https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=bb950e68b400ab4f65f8 it's triggered by many cases since the end of September...
I did not find useful information from the log, through calltrace, I guess it may be triggered by the long cycle time, which caused the static state of the RCU to
not be reported in time.
Yes, I understand that logic. But I wonder why this gets triggered *now* out of sudden. The code has been present over decades, and I don't think the similar test case must have been performed by fuzzer.
I ignore the atomic parameter check, I will resend v2 . in no-atomic context, we can insert
cond_resched() to avoid this situation, but in atomic context,
the RCU stall maybe still trigger.
Right, so maybe it's better to have an upper limit for the processed cells, something like below (totally untested).
Could you reproduce the problem locally? Otherwise it's all nothing but a guess...
thanks,
Takashi
