lockdep: Make the lock debug output more useful
The lock debug output in print_lock() has a few shortcomings: - It prints the hlock->acquire_ip field in %px and %pS format. That's redundant information. - It lacks information about the lock object itself. The lock class is not helpful to identify a particular instance of a lock. Change the output so it prints: - hlock->instance to allow identification of a particular lock instance. - only the %pS format of hlock->ip_acquire which is sufficient to decode the actual code line with faddr2line. The resulting output is: 3 locks held by a.out/31106: #0: 00000000b0f753ba (&mm->mmap_sem){++++}, at: copy_process.part.41+0x10d5/0x1fe0 #1: 00000000ef64d539 (&mm->mmap_sem/1){+.+.}, at: copy_process.part.41+0x10fe/0x1fe0 #2: 00000000b41a282e (&mapping->i_mmap_rwsem){++++}, at: copy_process.part.41+0x12f2/0x1fe0 [ tglx: Massaged changelog ] Signed-off-by: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/201803271941.GBE57310.tVSOJLQOFFOHFM@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp
