The -RT kernel managed to lockup itself with those. There could be multiple attempts for task X to enqueue it for a wakeup _even_ if task X is already running. The reason is that task X could be runnable but not yet on CPU. The the task performing the wakeup did not leave the CPU it could performe multiple wakeups. With the proper timming task X could be running and enqueued for a wakeup. If this happens while X is performing a fork() then its its child will have a !NULL `wake_q` member copied. This is not a problem as long as the child task does not participate in lockless wakeups :) Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Cc: Davidlohr Bueso Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Thomas Gleixner Fixes: 7675104990ed ("sched: Implement lockless wake-queues") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151221171710.GA5499@linutronix.de Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- diff --git a/kernel/fork.c b/kernel/fork.c index fce002ee3ddf..1155eac61687 100644 --- a/kernel/fork.c +++ b/kernel/fork.c @@ -380,6 +380,7 @@ static struct task_struct *dup_task_struct(struct task_struct *orig) #endif tsk->splice_pipe = NULL; tsk->task_frag.page = NULL; + tsk->wake_q.next = NULL; account_kernel_stack(ti, 1);
