Hi John,
Regarding the stack trace you provided below, I get the two potential call
chains:
tipc_nametbl_withdraw
spin_lock_bh(&tn->nametbl_lock);
tipc_nametbl_remove_publ
spin_lock_bh(&seq->lock);
tipc_nameseq_remove_publ
tipc_subscrp_report_overlap
tipc_subscrp_send_event
tipc_conn_sendmsg
spin_lock_bh(&con->outqueue_lock);
list_add_tail(&e->list, &con->outqueue);
tipc_topsrv_stop
tipc_server_stop
tipc_close_conn
kernel_sock_shutdown
tipc_subscrb_delete
spin_lock_bh(&subscriber->lock);
tipc_nametbl_unsubscribe(sub);
spin_lock_bh(&tn->nametbl_lock);
Although I suspect this is a revert lock issue leading to the soft lockup, I am
still unable to understand which lock together with nametbl_lock is taken
reversely on the two different paths above.
However, you just gave us the log printed on CPU#2, but the logs outputted by
other cores are also important. So if possible, please share them with us.
By the way, I agree with you, and it seems that commit 333f796235a527 is
related to the soft lockup.
Regards,
Ying

Subject: [tipc-discussion] v4.7: soft lockup when releasing a socket
Hi,
I am seeing an occasional kernel soft lockup. I have TIPC v4.7 and the kernel
dump occurs when the system is going down for a reboot.
The kernel dump is:

>From the stack dump it looks like tipc_named_reinit is trying to
acquire nametbl_lock.
>From looking at the call chain I can see that tipc_conn_sendmsg can
send up calling conn_put
which will go on and call the tipc_named_reinit via tipc_sock_release.
As tipc_nametbl_withdraw (from the stack dump) has already acquired the
nametbl_lock, tipc_named_reinit
cannot get it and so the process hangs.
The call to tipc_sock_release (added in Commit 333f796235a527
<http://git.atlnz.lc/cgit/cgit.cgi/upstream_imports/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=333f796235a52727db7e0a13888045f3aa3d5335>)
seems to have changed the behaviour
such that it tries to do a lot more when shutting the connection down.
If there is other information I can provide please let me know.
Regards,
John
