Linus Torvalds found that it was rather trivial to trigger a system
freeze:
In fact, with lockdep, I don't even need to do the sysrq-d thing: it
shows the bug as it happens. It's the X server taking the same lock
recursively.
Here's the problem:
=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
2.6.37-rc2-00012-gbdbd01a #7
---------------------------------------------
Xorg/2816 is trying to acquire lock:
(&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c626c>] i915_gem_fault+0x50/0x17e
but task is already holding lock:
(&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c403b>] i915_mutex_lock_interruptible+0x28/0x4a
other info that might help us debug this:
2 locks held by Xorg/2816:
#0: (&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c403b>] i915_mutex_lock_interruptible+0x28/0x4a
#1: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff81022d4f>] page_fault+0x156/0x37b
This recursion was introduced by rearranging the locking to avoid the
double locking on the fast path (4f27b5d and

************************************************************
The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level
device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering
Infrastructure (DRI).
The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major
ways:
1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via
the use of an optimized two-tiered lock.
2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics
hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to
restricted regions of memory.
3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple
queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context
switch.
4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules
that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module.
Documentation on the DRI is available from:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation
