Hi Eric,

I don't think so. This patch only affects the space occupied by stack traces and not the space occupied by any of the other lockdep data strutures. BTW, in that report I found the following:

Title:              BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAINS too low!
Last occurred:      5 days ago
Reported:           284 days ago

Title:              BUG: MAX_LOCK_DEPTH too low! (2)
Last occurred:      362 days ago
Reported:           392 days ago

Since these bugs were reported more than 150 days ago these bugs are older than my lockdep changes and hence not a regression due to my lockdep changes.

My patch series did not increase the number of "list_entries" tracked by lockdep so I don't think that the "BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES too low" behavior can be triggered more easily due to my lockdep changes.

The "BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!" complaint however may be related. I will check whether it is possible to reduce the space occupied by held lock chains again to what was needed before my patch series.

Bart.
