When kernel configuration SMP,PREEMPT and DEBUG_PREEMPT are enabled, echo 1 >/proc/sys/kernel/sysrq echo p >/proc/sysrq-trigger kernel will print call trace as below: sysrq: SysRq : Show Regs BUG: using __this_cpu_read() in preemptible [00000000] code: sh/435 caller is __this_cpu_preempt_check+0x18/0x20 Call trace: [<ffffff8008088e80>] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x1d0 [<ffffff8008089074>] show_stack+0x24/0x30 [<ffffff8008447970>] dump_stack+0x90/0xb0 [<ffffff8008463950>] check_preemption_disabled+0x100/0x108 [<ffffff8008463998>] __this_cpu_preempt_check+0x18/0x20 [<ffffff80084c9194>] sysrq_handle_showregs+0x1c/0x40 [<ffffff80084c9c7c>] __handle_sysrq+0x12c/0x1a0 [<ffffff80084ca140>] write_sysrq_trigger+0x60/0x70 [<ffffff8008251e00>] proc_reg_write+0x90/0xd0 [<ffffff80081f1788>] __vfs_write+0x48/0x90 [<ffffff80081f241c>] vfs_write+0xa4/0x190 [<ffffff80081f3354>] SyS_write+0x54/0xb0 [<ffffff80080833f0>] el0_svc_naked+0x24/0x28 This can be seen on a common board like an r-pi3. This happens because when echo p >/proc/sysrq-trigger, get_irq_regs() is called outside of IRQ context, if preemption is enabled in this situation,kernel will print the call trace. Since many prior discussions on the mailing lists have made it clear that get_irq_regs either just returns NULL or stale data when used outside of IRQ context,we simply avoid calling it outside of IRQ context.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
