Out of curiosity, where do these come from? I know about the races where you need to recheck on the waiter side to avoid getting stuck, but didn't know about this. Are these earlier (possibly spurious) wakeups that got held up and delayed for a while, then hit the task much later when it's already continued doing something else? Or even more random, and even if I never put a task on a wait list or anything else, ever, it can get woken spuriously? > > +void printk_safe_up(struct semaphore *sem) > > +{ > > + unsigned long flags; > > + struct semaphore_waiter *waiter = NULL; > > + > > + raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&sem->lock, flags); > > + if (likely(list_empty(&sem->wait_list))) { > > + sem->count++; > > + } else { > > + waiter = list_first_entry(&sem->wait_list, > > + struct semaphore_waiter, list); > > + list_del(&waiter->list); > > + waiter->up = true; > > + } > > + raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&sem->lock, flags); > > + > > + if (waiter) /* protected by being sole wake source */ > > + wake_up_process(waiter->task); > > +} > > +EXPORT_SYMBOL(printk_safe_up); > > Since its only used from printk, that EXPORT really isn't needed. > > Something like the below might work. Yeah that looks like the proper fix. I guess semaphores are uncritical enough that we can roll this out for everyone.
