Hi all,
This patch series fixes some minor preempt_count bookkeeping issues in
arch/powerpc/ found during a preemption leak audit prompted by the
lazy/full preemption model changes. These are get_cpu/put_cpu and
get_cpu_var/put_cpu_var pairing errors that leave preempt_count
incorrectly elevated or underflowed.
v2 -> v3:
- Patches 2 and 3: use raw_smp_processor_id() instead of
smp_processor_id(). Both paths run with interrupts
disabled, so the plain accessor is sufficient.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260603062743.1152253-1-aboorvad@linux.ibm.com/
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260518050855.1147242-1-aboorvad@linux.ibm.com/
Testing:
- Patches 2 and 3: kexec boot-tested on PowerNV (powernv_defconfig)
and pseries (pseries_defconfig).
- Patch 1: compile-tested only (ppc64e_defconfig + CONFIG_FSL_EMB_PERFMON);
no e500/fsl_emb hardware to runtime-test.
Please let me know your comments.
Thanks,
Aboorva
