I've added a small test:

diff --git a/kernel/sched/core.c b/kernel/sched/core.c
index 927fa33..b5e11c7 100644
--- a/kernel/sched/core.c
+++ b/kernel/sched/core.c
@@ -1154,6 +1156,7 @@ int migrate_swap(struct task_struct *cur, struct task_struct *p)
                goto out;

        trace_sched_swap_numa(cur, arg.src_cpu, p, arg.dst_cpu);
+       BUG_ON(cur == p);
        ret = stop_two_cpus(arg.dst_cpu, arg.src_cpu, migrate_swap_stop, &arg);

 out:


Which seems to get hit. This sounds like a race with task moving to
other cpu maybe?


Thanks,
Sasha
