It looks like this one is actually real, because when I use the preempt-timing patch it corresponds to a report of a 10ms non-preemptible section. get_user_pages appears to be the offender.
jackd does not print an xrun report here due to this code in alsa-driver.c:
/* Delay (in process calls) before jackd will report an xrun */ #define XRUN_REPORT_DELAY 64
...
if (snd_pcm_status_get_state(status) == SND_PCM_STATE_XRUN && driver->process_count > XRUN_REPORT_DELAY) { ... print xrun errmsg ... }
Presumably the author thought this behavior was by design.
