When CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=y, the kernel locks up during cpuidle initialization on Renesas sh73a0/kzm9g-reference, which has a dual-core Cortex-A9.
Last message is:
DMA: preallocated 256 KiB pool for atomic coherent allocations
After this it's supposed to print:
cpuidle: using governor ladder cpuidle: using governor menu
I've bisected this to commit 442bf3aaf55a91ebfec71da46a4ee10a3c905bcc ("sched: Let the scheduler see CPU idle states").
Reverting that commit, and commit 83a0a96a5f26d974580fd7251043ff70c8f1823d ("sched/fair: Leverage the idle state info when choosing the "idlest" cpu") which depends on it, fixes the problem.
I saw the discussion "lockdep splat in CPU hotplug", so I enabled lockdep debugging, but didn't see a lockdep splat.
I'm using CONFIG_TREE_RCU=y, as this is SMP without PREEMPT.
Anyone with a clue?
Thanks!
