From b50f60ceeef2e38e529737c0260d9543939915ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiko Carstens Date: Sun, 30 Jul 2006 03:03:52 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] pi-futex: missing pi_waiters plist initialization Initialize init task's pi_waiters plist. Otherwise cpu hotplug of cpu 0 might crash, since rt_mutex_getprio() accesses an uninitialized list head. call chain which led to crash: take_cpu_down sched_idle_next __setscheduler rt_mutex_getprio Using PLIST_HEAD_INIT in the INIT_TASK macro doesn't work unfortunately, since the pi_waiters member is only conditionally present.
