SubjectRe: LTP hugemmap05 test case failure on arm64 with linux-next (next-20190613)
From
Date
So the problem is that ipcget_public() has held the semaphore "ids->rwsem" for
too long seems unnecessarily and then goes to sleep sometimes due to direct
reclaim (other times LTP hugemmap05 [1] has hugetlb_file_setup() returns
-ENOMEM),

[  788.765739][ T1315] INFO: task hugemmap05:5001 can't die for more than 122

and then all other processes are waiting on the semaphore causes lock
contentions,

Ideally, it seems only ipc_findkey() and newseg() in this path needs to hold the
semaphore to protect concurrency access, so it could just be converted to a
spinlock instead.
