When converting from atomic_t to refcount_t we didn't follow the usual
step of initializing it to one before taking any new reference, which
trips over checking if taking a reference for a freed refcount_t, fix
it.
Brendan's report:
---
It's 4.12-rc7, with node v4.4.1. I'm building 4.13-rc1 now, as I hit
what I think is another unrelated perf bug and I'm starting to wonder
what else is broken on that version:
(root) /mnt/src/linux-4.12-rc7/tools/perf # ./perf record -F 99 -a -e
cpu-clock --cgroup=docker/f9e9d5df065b14646e8a11edc837a13877fd90c171137b2ba3feb67a0201cb65
-g
perf: /mnt/src/linux-4.12-rc7/tools/include/linux/refcount.h:108:
refcount_inc: Assertion `!(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r))' failed.
Aborted
that used to work...
---
Testing it:
Before:
# perf stat -e cycles -C 0 --cgroup /
perf: /home/acme/git/linux/tools/include/linux/refcount.h:108: refcount_inc: Assertion `!(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r))' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)
#
After:
# perf stat -e cycles -C 0 --cgroup /
^C
Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
132,081,393 cycles /
2.492942763 seconds time elapsed

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.
