Calling schedule isn't good enough. For rcu_tasks to continue, the task needs to schedule out. With my updated code, I just triggered: [ 196.276868] INFO: rcu_tasks detected stalls on tasks: [ 196.284294] ffff8800c26f8040: .. nvcsw: 2/2 holdout: 1 idle_cpu: -1/1 [ 196.293175] event_benchmark R running task 30536 1127 2 0x10000000 [ 196.302746] Call Trace: [ 196.307640] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x1f/0x50 [ 196.314453] __schedule+0x222/0x1210 [ 196.320476] ? pci_mmcfg_check_reserved+0xc0/0xc0 [ 196.327616] ? preempt_count_add+0xb7/0xf0 [ 196.334174] ? __asan_store8+0x15/0x70 [ 196.340384] schedule+0x57/0xe0 [ 196.345888] benchmark_event_kthread+0x2e/0x3c0 [ 196.352823] kthread+0x178/0x1d0 [ 196.358411] ? trace_benchmark_reg+0x80/0x80 [ 196.365073] ? kthread_create_on_node+0xa0/0xa0 [ 196.371999] ret_from_fork+0x2e/0x40 And here my benchmark called schedule(), but nothing scheduled it out, and it still fails on rcu_tasks. -- Steve
