So it looks like we're setting the voltage on lvs1, which then calls get_voltage() on s4. At that point the lockdep spew hits. But as Mark noted *this* spew looks like a false positive, but I suspect lockdep is then disabled and can't detect the real hang happens shortly afterwards. The key bit needed to revert to get things booting for me in fc42112c0eaa ("regulator: core: Propagate voltage changes to supply regulators") is (sorry, copy pasted text here, apologies for the whitespace damage): --- a/drivers/regulator/core.c +++ b/drivers/regulator/core.c @@ -2952,11 +2952,12 @@ int regulator_set_voltage(struct regulator *regulator, int min_uV, int max_uV) { int ret = 0; - regulator_lock_supply(regulator->rdev); + mutex_lock(®ulator->rdev->mutex); ret = regulator_set_voltage_unlocked(regulator, min_uV, max_uV); - regulator_unlock_supply(regulator->rdev); + mutex_unlock(®ulator->rdev->mutex); return ret; } Might the problem be here that we lock the supply in set_voltage, then if we call _regulator_get_voltage on the supply later, we try to grab the same lock and we're stuck? thanks -john -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
