[ Upstream commit f7ec1cd5cc7ef3ad964b677ba82b8b77f1c93009 ] lock_task_sighand() can trigger a hard lockup. If NR_CPUS threads call getrusage() at the same time and the process has NR_THREADS, spin_lock_irq will spin with irqs disabled O(NR_CPUS * NR_THREADS) time. Change getrusage() to use sig->stats_lock, it was specifically designed for this type of use. This way it runs lockless in the likely case. TODO: - Change do_task_stat() to use sig->stats_lock too, then we can remove spin_lock_irq(siglock) in wait_task_zombie(). - Turn sig->stats_lock into seqcount_rwlock_t, this way the readers in the slow mode won't exclude each other. See https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230913154907.GA26210@redhat.com/ - stats_lock has to disable irqs because ->siglock can be taken in irq context, it would be very nice to change __exit_signal() to avoid the siglock->stats_lock dependency.

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.
