Subject[linux-next] possible circular locking dependency for cryptsetup
Hi there,

I got the following warning for 2.6.28-rc3-next-20081106, it's quiet for
2.6.28-rc3. Besides the new warning everything seems to work fine.

As a side note, I wanted to file this at bugzilla.k.o, but there is no
"next" tree in "alternate trees" - intended?

FWIW: x86, 2xP3

Greetings,

Markus

=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.28-rc3-next-20081106-mad-1 #2
-------------------------------------------------------
cryptsetup/2554 is trying to acquire lock:
(&cpu_hotplug.lock){--..}, at: [<c012cd32>] get_online_cpus+0x22/0x40

but task is already holding lock:
(&mm->mmap_sem){----}, at: [<c018b98e>] sys_mlockall+0x5e/0xd0

which lock already depends on the new lock.


the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

other info that might help us debug this:

1 lock held by cryptsetup/2554:
#0: (&mm->mmap_sem){----}, at: [<c018b98e>] sys_mlockall+0x5e/0xd0
