commit 7c6986ade69e3c81bac831645bc72109cd798a80 upstream.
In raise_backtrace_ipi() we iterate through the cpumask of CPUs, sending
each an IPI asking them to do a backtrace, but we don't wait for the
backtrace to happen.
We then iterate through the CPU mask again, and if any CPU hasn't done
the backtrace and cleared itself from the mask, we print a trace on its
behalf, noting that the trace may be "stale".
This works well enough when a CPU is not responding, because in that
case it doesn't receive the IPI and the sending CPU is left to print the
trace. But when all CPUs are responding we are left with a race between
the sending and receiving CPUs, if the sending CPU wins the race then it
will erroneously print a trace.
This leads to spurious "stale" traces from the sending CPU, which can
then be interleaved messily with the receiving CPU, note the CPU
numbers, eg:
[ 1658.929157][ C7] rcu: Stack dump where RCU GP kthread last ran:
[ 1658.929223][ C7] Sending NMI from CPU 7 to CPUs 1:
[ 1658.929303][ C1] NMI backtrace for cpu 1
[ 1658.929303][ C7] CPU 1 didn't respond to backtrace IPI, inspecting paca.
[ 1658.929362][ C1] CPU: 1 PID: 325 Comm: kworker/1:1H Tainted: G W E 5.13.0-rc2+ #46
[ 1658.929405][ C7] irq_soft_mask: 0x01 in_mce: 0 in_nmi: 0 current: 325 (kworker/1:1H)
[ 1658.929465][ C1] Workqueue: events_highpri test_work_fn [test_lockup]
[ 1658.929549][ C7] Back trace of paca->saved_r1 (0xc0000000057fb400) (possibly stale):
[ 1658.929592][ C1] NIP: c00000000002cf50 LR: c008000000820178 CTR: c00000000002cfa0
To fix it, change the logic so that the sending CPU waits 5s for the
receiving CPU to print its trace. If the receiving CPU prints its trace
successfully then the sending CPU just continues, avoiding any spurious
"stale" trace.
This has the added benefit of allowing all CPUs to print their traces in
order and avoids any interleaving of their output.

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.
