[DragonFlyBSD - Bug #2436] panic: assertion "lp->lwp_qcpu == dd->cpuid" failed in dfly_acquire_curproc

[Matthew Dillon via Redmine]

Issue #2436 has been updated by dillon.


Well, the assertion protects against the scheduling metrics being applied to the wrong cpu, which over time would cause cpus to be improperly weighted and potentially locked out for no reason.  The assertion itself is correct, the question is why is it being hit?

So far I haven't had any luck tracking down code paths where qcpu would be wrong.  The only possibility I can think of is that whatever system call that backtrace indicates the thread was calling (can't tell from the backtrace), it may have moved the thread to a different current cpu without telling the scheduler.

I need a kernel core to determine whether that is the case or not.

On current master changing cpumask using dfly scheduler can result in panic.
Problem is on both DragonFly i386 & x86_64.
Scheduler bsd4 doesn't have this problem.

E.g. on 8 core system running 'usched dfly:3 true' a few times while doing buildkernel triggers panic.
Core dump avail on request.
