Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

[ Upstream commit 74ffe79a ] Mostly unwind is done with irqs enabled however SLUB may call it with irqs disabled while creating a new SLUB cache. I had system freeze while loading a module which called kmem_cache_create() on init. That means SLUB's __slab_alloc() disabled interrupts and then ->new_slab_objects() ->new_slab() ->setup_object() ->setup_object_debug() ->init_tracking() ->set_track() ->save_stack_trace() ->save_stack_trace_tsk() ->walk_stackframe() ->unwind_frame() ->unwind_find_idx() =>spin_lock_irqsave(&unwind_lock); Signed-off-by:Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by:
