Hi Philippe,

I'm afraid this one is serious: let the attached migration stress test
run on likely any Xenomai since 2.0, preferably with
CONFIG_XENO_OPT_DEBUG on. Will give a nice crash sooner or later (I'm
trying to set up a serial console now).


Confirmed here. My test box went through some nifty triple salto out of the window running this frag for 2mn or so. Actually, the semop handshake is not even needed to cause the crash. At first sight, it looks like a migration issue taking place during the critical phase when a shadow thread switches back to Linux to terminate.



As it took some time to persuade my box to not just reboot but to give a
message, I'm posting here the kernel dump of the P-III running
nat_migration:

This babe is awaken by Linux while Xeno sees it in a dormant state, likely after it has terminated. No wonder why things are going wild after that... Ok, job queued. Thanks.

Fixed. The cause was related to the thread migration routine to primary mode (xnshadow_harden), which would spuriously call the Linux rescheduling procedure from the primary domain under certain circumstances. This bug only triggers on preemptible kernels. This also fixes the spinlock recursion issue which is sometimes triggered when the spinlock debug option is active.
