The sequence static DEFINE_WW_CLASS(test_ww_class); struct ww_acquire_ctx ww_ctx; struct ww_mutex ww_lock_a; struct ww_mutex ww_lock_b; struct mutex lock_c; struct mutex lock_d; ww_acquire_init(&ww_ctx, &test_ww_class); ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_a, &test_ww_class); ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_b, &test_ww_class); mutex_init(&lock_c); ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_a, &ww_ctx); mutex_lock(&lock_c); ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_b, &ww_ctx); mutex_unlock(&lock_c); (*) ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_b); ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_a); ww_acquire_fini(&ww_ctx); triggers the following WARN in __lock_release() when doing the unlock at *: DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(curr->lockdep_depth != depth - 1); The problem is that the WARN check doesn't take into account the merging of ww_lock_a and ww_lock_b which results in decreasing curr->lockdep_depth by 2 not only 1. Note that the following sequence doesn't trigger the WARN, since there won't be any hlock merging. ww_acquire_init(&ww_ctx, &test_ww_class); ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_a, &test_ww_class); ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_b, &test_ww_class); mutex_init(&lock_c); mutex_init(&lock_d); ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_a, &ww_ctx); mutex_lock(&lock_c); mutex_lock(&lock_d); ww_mutex_lock(&ww_lock_b, &ww_ctx); mutex_unlock(&lock_d); ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_b); ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_a); mutex_unlock(&lock_c); ww_acquire_fini(&ww_ctx); In general both of the above two sequences are valid and shouldn't trigger any lockdep warning. Fix this by taking the decrement due to the hlock merging into account during lock release and hlock class re-setting. Merging can't happen during lock downgrading since there won't be a new possibility to merge hlocks in that case, so add a WARN if merging still happens then.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
