Hi forks,
I've been developing a tool for detecting deadlock possibilities by tracking wait/event rather than lock(?) acquisition order to try to cover all synchonization machanisms. It's done on v5.10 tag. I bet it would work great! Try it and see what's gonna happen.
Now that there's a porting issue, I made Dept rely on Lockdep. But it should be separated from Lockdep once it's considered worth having.
Benifit:
0. Works with all lock primitives. 1. Works with wait_for_completion()/complete(). 2. Works with 'wait' on PG_locked. 3. Works with 'wait' on PG_writeback. 4. Works with swait/wakeup. 5. Multiple reports are allowed. 6. Deduplication control on multiple reports. 7. Withstand false positives thanks to 5. 8. Easy to tag any wait/event.
Future work:
0. To make it more stable. 1. To separates Dept from Lockdep. 2. To improves performance in terms of time and space. 3. To use Dept as a dependency engine for Lockdep. 4. To add any missing tags of wait/event in the kernel. 5. To deduplicate stack trace.
I hope you guys are gonna be satisfied with Dept. Don't hesitate to give any feedback. I will adopt any feedbacks if reasonable.
Thanks, Byungchul
