I noticed relatively late and it hadn't occured on my own testing. I can send it as a separate patch but I wanted to highlight that it would affect a 4.12.4 release.
---8<--- sched/cputime: Don't use smp_processor_id() in preemptible context commit 0e4097c3354e2f5a5ad8affd9dc7f7f7d00bb6b9 upstream Recent kernels trigger this warning: BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: 99-trinity/181 caller is debug_smp_processor_id+0x17/0x19 CPU: 0 PID: 181 Comm: 99-trinity Not tainted 4.12.0-01059-g2a42eb9 #1 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x82/0xb8 check_preemption_disabled() debug_smp_processor_id() vtime_delta() task_cputime() thread_group_cputime() thread_group_cputime_adjusted() wait_consider_task() do_wait() SYSC_wait4() do_syscall_64() entry_SYSCALL64_slow_path() As Frederic pointed out: | Although those sched_clock_cpu() things seem to only matter when the | sched_clock() is unstable. And that stability is a condition for nohz_full | to work anyway. So probably sched_clock() alone would be enough. This patch fixes it by replacing sched_clock_cpu() with sched_clock() to avoid calling smp_processor_id() in a preemptible context.
