TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT currently isn't part of TASK_REPORT, thus a task blocking on an rtlock will appear as having a task state == 0, IOW TASK_RUNNING. The actual state is saved in p->saved_state, but reading it after reading p->__state has a few issues: o that could still be TASK_RUNNING in the case of e.g. rt_spin_lock o ttwu_state_match() might have changed that to TASK_RUNNING As pointed out by Eric, adding TASK_RTLOCK_WAIT to TASK_REPORT implies exposing a new state to userspace tools which way not know what to do with them. The only information that needs to be conveyed here is that a task is waiting on an rt_mutex, which matches TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE - there's no need for a new state.

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.
