Subject: [BUG] an RCU warning in memcg
Date: Fri, 23 Apr 2010 11:00:41 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BD10D59.9090504@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)

with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y, I saw this warning, it's because
css_id() is not under rcu_read_lock().


===================================================
[ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
---------------------------------------------------
kernel/cgroup.c:4438 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!

other info that might help us debug this:


rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
1 lock held by kswapd0/31:
 #0:  (swap_lock){+.+.-.}, at: [<c05058bb>] swap_info_get+0x4b/0xd0
