And I missed mark_irqflags(), > @@ -3136,7 +3130,7 @@ static int __lock_acquire(struct lockdep_map *lock, > unsigned int subclass, > hlock->holdtime_stamp = lockstat_clock(); > #endif > > - if (check == 2 && !mark_irqflags(curr, hlock)) > + if (prove_locking && !mark_irqflags(curr, hlock)) > return 0; This change is not right, at least it is not equivalent. And I just realized that rcu_lock_acquire() does lock_acquire(check => 1). Probably we can mark rcu_lock_map's as __lockdep_no_validate__. Anything else I missed?
