    Add RCU check for find_task_by_vpid(). · 4221a991
    Tetsuo Handa 提交于
    find_task_by_vpid() says "Must be called under rcu_read_lock().". But due to
    commit 3120438a "rcu: Disable lockdep checking in RCU list-traversal primitives",
    we are currently unable to catch "find_task_by_vpid() with tasklist_lock held
    but RCU lock not held" errors due to the RCU-lockdep checks being
    suppressed in the RCU variants of the struct list_head traversals.
    This commit therefore places an explicit check for being in an RCU
    read-side critical section in find_task_by_pid_ns().
    
      ===================================================
      [ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ]
      ---------------------------------------------------
      kernel/pid.c:386 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
    
      other info that might help us debug this:
    
      rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
      1 lock held by rc.sysinit/1102:
       #0:  (tasklist_lock){.+.+..}, at: [<c1048340>] sys_setpgid+0x40/0x160

    Commit updated to use a new rcu_lockdep_assert() exported API rather than
    the old internal __do_rcu_dereference().
