Ziqian reported lockup when adding retprobe on _raw_spin_lock_irqsave. My test was also able to trigger lockdep output:
============================================ WARNING: possible recursive locking detected 5.6.0-rc6+ #6 Not tainted -------------------------------------------- sched-messaging/2767 is trying to acquire lock: ffffffff9a492798 (&(kretprobe_table_locks[i].lock)){-.-.}, at: kretprobe_hash_lock+0x52/0xa0
but task is already holding lock: ffffffff9a491a18 (&(kretprobe_table_locks[i].lock)){-.-.}, at: kretprobe_trampoline+0x0/0x50
other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 ---- lock(&(kretprobe_table_locks[i].lock)); lock(&(kretprobe_table_locks[i].lock));

May be due to missing lock nesting notation

The code within the kretprobe handler checks for probe reentrancy, so we won't trigger any _raw_spin_lock_irqsave probe in there.
The problem is in outside kprobe_flush_task, where we call:
kprobe_flush_task kretprobe_table_lock raw_spin_lock_irqsave _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
where _raw_spin_lock_irqsave triggers the kretprobe and installs kretprobe_trampoline handler on _raw_spin_lock_irqsave return.
The kretprobe_trampoline handler is then executed with already locked kretprobe_table_locks, and first thing it does is to lock kretprobe_table_locks ;-) the whole lockup path like:
kprobe_flush_task kretprobe_table_lock raw_spin_lock_irqsave _raw_spin_lock_irqsave ---> probe triggered, kretprobe_trampoline installed
---> kretprobe_table_locks locked
kretprobe_trampoline trampoline_handler kretprobe_hash_lock(current, &head, &flags); <--- deadlock
Adding kprobe_busy_begin/end helpers that mark code with fake probe installed to prevent triggering of another kprobe within this code.
Using these helpers in kprobe_flush_task, so the probe recursion protection check is hit and the probe is never set to prevent above lockup.
