JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-95318 commit c5b6aba Author: Maxim Levitsky <[email protected]> Date: Mon May 12 14:04:02 2025 -0400 locking/mutex: implement mutex_trylock_nested Despite the fact that several lockdep-related checks are skipped when calling trylock* versions of the locking primitives, for example mutex_trylock, each time the mutex is acquired, a held_lock is still placed onto the lockdep stack by __lock_acquire() which is called regardless of whether the trylock* or regular locking API was used. This means that if the caller successfully acquires more than MAX_LOCK_DEPTH locks of the same class, even when using mutex_trylock, lockdep will still complain that the maximum depth of the held lock stack has been reached and disable itself. For example, the following error currently occurs in the ARM version of KVM, once the code tries to lock all vCPUs of a VM configured with more than MAX_LOCK_DEPTH vCPUs, a situation that can easily happen on modern systems, where having more than 48 CPUs is common, and it's also common to run VMs that have vCPU counts approaching that number: [ 328.171264] BUG: MAX_LOCK_DEPTH too low! [ 328.175227] turning off the locking correctness validator. [ 328.180726] Please attach the output of /proc/lock_stat to the bug report [ 328.187531] depth: 48 max: 48!

The action of 'nested lock' being provided to lockdep's lock_acquire(), causes the lockdep to detect that the top of the held lock stack contains a lock of the same class and then increment its reference counter instead of pushing a new held_lock item onto that stack. See __lock_acquire for more information.
