Starting the process wide cputime counter needs to be done in the same
sighand locking sequence than actually arming the related timer otherwise
this races against concurrent timers setting/expiring in the same
threadgroup.Detecting that the cputime counter is started without holding the sighand
lock is a first step toward debugging such situations.Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel)

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"Fix tracepoint race between static_call and callback dataAs callbacks to a tracepoint are paired with the data that is passed
in when the callback is registered to the tracepoint, it must have
that data passed to the callback when the tracepoint is triggered,
else bad things will happen. To keep the two together, they are both
assigned to a tracepoint structure and added to an array. The
tracepoint call site will dereference the structure (via RCU) and call
the callback in that structure along with the data in that structure.
This keeps the callback and data tightly coupled.Because of the overhead that retpolines have on tracepoint callbacks,
if there's only one callback attached to a tracepoint (a common case),
then it is called via a static call (code modified to do a direct call
instead of an indirect call). But to implement this, the data had to
be decoupled from the callback, as now the callback is implemented via
a direct call from the static call and not an indirect call from the
dereferenced structure.Note, the static call only calls a callback used when there's a single
callback attached to the tracepoint. If more than one callback is
attached to the same tracepoint, then the static call will call an
iterator function that goes back to dereferencing the structure
keeping the callback and its data tightly coupled again.Issues can arise when going from 0 callbacks to one, as the static
call is assigned to the callback, and it must take care that the data
passed to it is loaded before the static call calls the callback.
Going from 1 to 2 callbacks is not an issue, as long as the static
call is updated to the iterator before the tracepoint structure array
is updated via RCU. Going from 2 to more or back down to 2 is not an
issue as the iterator can handle all theses cases. But going from 2 to
1, care must be taken as the static call is now calling a callback and
the data that is loaded must be the data for that callback.Care was taken to ensure the callback and data would be in-sync, but
after a bug was reported, it became clear that not enough was done to
make sure that was the case. These changes address this.The first change is to compare the old and new data instead of the old
and new callback, as it's the data that can corrupt the callback, even
if the callback is the same (something getting freed).The next change is to convert these transitions into states, to make
it easier to know when a synchronization is needed, and to perform
those synchronizations. The problem with this patch is that it slows
down disabling all events from under a second, to making it take over
10 seconds to do the same work. But that is addressed in the final
patch.The final patch uses the RCU state functions to keep track of the RCU
state between the transitions, and only needs to perform the
synchronization if an RCU synchronization hasn't been done already.
This brings the performance of disabling all events back to its
original value. That's because no synchronization is required between
disabling tracepoints but is required when enabling a tracepoint after
its been disabled. If an RCU synchronization happens after the
tracepoint is disabled, and before it is re-enabled, there's no need
to do the synchronization again.Both the second and third patch have subtle complexities that they are
separated into two patches. But because the second patch causes such a
regression in performance, the third patch adds a "Fixes" tag to the
second patch, such that the two must be backported together and not
just the second patch"* tag 'trace-v5.14-rc4-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
tracepoint: Use rcu get state and cond sync for static call updates
tracepoint: Fix static call function vs data state mismatch
tracepoint: static call: Compare data on transition from 2->1 callees
06 Aug, 2021

State transitions from 1->0->1 and N->2->1 callbacks require RCU
synchronization. Rather than performing the RCU synchronization every
time the state change occurs, which is quite slow when many tracepoints
are registered in batch, instead keep a snapshot of the RCU state on the
most recent transitions which belong to a chain, and conditionally wait
for a grace period on the last transition of the chain if one g.p. has
not elapsed since the last snapshot.This applies to both RCU and SRCU.
This brings the performance regression caused by commit 231264d6927f
("Fix: tracepoint: static call function vs data state mismatch") back to
what it was originally.Before this commit:

On a 1->0->1 callbacks transition, there is an issue with the new
callback using the old callback's data.Considering __DO_TRACE_CALL:
do { \
struct tracepoint_func *it_func_ptr; \
void *__data; \
it_func_ptr = \
rcu_dereference_raw((&__tracepoint_##name)->funcs); \
if (it_func_ptr) { \
__data = (it_func_ptr)->data; \----> [ delayed here on one CPU (e.g. vcpu preempted by the host) ]
static_call(tp_func_##name)(__data, args); \
} \
} while (0)It has loaded the tp->funcs of the old callback, so it will try to use the old
data. This can be fixed by adding a RCU sync anywhere in the 1->0->1
transition chain.On a N->2->1 transition, we need an rcu-sync because you may have a
sequence of 3->2->1 (or 1->2->1) where the element 0 data is unchanged
between 2->1, but was changed from 3->2 (or from 1->2), which may be
observed by the static call. This can be fixed by adding an
unconditional RCU sync in transition 2->1.Note, this fixes a correctness issue at the cost of adding a tremendous
performance regression to the disabling of tracepoints.Before this commit:

The hardware latency detector (hwlat) has a mode that it runs one thread
across CPUs. The logic to move from the currently running CPU to the next
one in the list does a smp_processor_id() to find where it currently is.
Unfortunately, it's done with preemption enabled, and this triggers a
warning for using smp_processor_id() in a preempt enabled section.As it is only using smp_processor_id() to get information on where it
currently is in order to simply move it to the next CPU, it doesn't really
care if it got moved in the mean time. It will simply balance out later if
such a case arises.Switch smp_processor_id() to raw_smp_processor_id() to quiet that warning.

When working on my user space applications, I found a bug in the synthetic
event code where the automated synthetic event field was not matching the
event field calculation it was attached to. Looking deeper into it, it was
because the calculation hist_field was not given a size.The synthetic event fields are matched to their hist_fields either by
having the field have an identical string type, or if that does not match,
then the size and signed values are used to match the fields.The problem arose when I tried to match a calculation where the fields
were "unsigned int". My tool created a synthetic event of type "u32". But
it failed to match. The string was:diff=field1-field2:onmatch(event).trace(synth,$diff)
Adding debugging into the kernel, I found that the size of "diff" was 0.
And since it was given "unsigned int" as a type, the histogram fallback
code used size and signed. The signed matched, but the size of u32 (4) did
not match zero, and the event failed to be created.This can be worse if the field you want to match is not one of the
acceptable fields for a synthetic event. As event fields can have any type
that is supported in Linux, this can cause an issue. For example, if a
type is an enum. Then there's no way to use that with any calculations.Have the calculation field simply take on the size of what it is
calculating.Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210730171951.59c7743f@oasis.local.home

rt_effective_prio() is however called twice per each
__sched_setscheduler() call: first directly by __sched_setscheduler()
before dequeuing the task and then by __setscheduler() to actually do
the priority change. If the priority of the pi_top_task is concurrently
being changed however, it might happen that the two calls return
different results. If, for example, the first call returned the same rt
priority the task was running at and the second one a fair priority, the
task won't be removed by the rt list (on_list still set) and then
enqueued in the fair runqueue. When eventually setscheduled back to rt
it will be seen as enqueued already and the WARNING/BUG be issued.Fix this by calling rt_effective_prio() only once and then reusing the
return value. While at it refactor code as well for clarity. Concurrent
priority inheritance handling is still safe and will eventually converge
to a new state by following the inheritance chain(s).Fixes: 0782e63bc6fe ("sched: Handle priority boosted tasks proper in setscheduler()")

Spectre v4 gadgets make use of memory disambiguation, which is a set of
techniques that execute memory access instructions, that is, loads and
stores, out of program order; Intel's optimization manual, section 2.4.4.5:A load instruction micro-op may depend on a preceding store. Many
microarchitectures block loads until all preceding store addresses are
known. The memory disambiguator predicts which loads will not depend on
any previous stores. When the disambiguator predicts that a load does
not have such a dependency, the load takes its data from the L1 data
cache. Eventually, the prediction is verified. If an actual conflict is
detected, the load and all succeeding instructions are re-executed.af86ca4e3088 ("bpf: Prevent memory disambiguation attack") tried to mitigate
this attack by sanitizing the memory locations through preemptive "fast"
(low latency) stores of zero prior to the actual "slow" (high latency) store
of a pointer value such that upon dependency misprediction the CPU then
speculatively executes the load of the pointer value and retrieves the zero
value instead of the attacker controlled scalar value previously stored at
that location, meaning, subsequent access in the speculative domain is then
redirected to the "zero page".The sanitized preemptive store of zero prior to the actual "slow" store is
done through a simple ST instruction based on r10 (frame pointer) with
relative offset to the stack location that the verifier has been tracking
on the original used register for STX, which does not have to be r10. Thus,
there are no memory dependencies for this store, since it's only using r10
and immediate constant of zero; hence af86ca4e3088 /assumed/ a low latency
operation.However, a recent attack demonstrated that this mitigation is not sufficient
since the preemptive store of zero could also be turned into a "slow" store
and is thus bypassed as well:[...]
// r2 = oob address (e.g. scalar)
// r7 = pointer to map value
31: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -16) = r2
// r9 will remain "fast" register, r10 will become "slow" register below
32: (bf) r9 = r10
// JIT maps BPF reg to x86 reg:
// r9 -> r15 (callee saved)
// r10 -> rbp
// train store forward prediction to break dependency link between both r9
// and r10 by evicting them from the predictor's LRU table.

store bypass is not mitigated in such precondition and can then lead to
a type confusion in the speculative domain leaking kernel memory near
these pointer types.While brainstorming on various alternative mitigation possibilities, we also
stumbled upon a retrospective from Chrome developers [0]:[...] For variant 4, we implemented a mitigation to zero the unused memory
of the heap prior to allocation, which cost about 1% when done concurrently
and 4% for scavenging. Variant 4 defeats everything we could think of. We
explored more mitigations for variant 4 but the threat proved to be more
pervasive and dangerous than we anticipated. For example, stack slots used
by the register allocator in the optimizing compiler could be subject to
type confusion, leading to pointer crafting. Mitigating type confusion for
stack slots alone would have required a complete redesign of the backend of
the optimizing compiler, perhaps man years of work, without a guarantee of
completeness. [...]From BPF side, the problem space is reduced, however, options are rather
limited. One idea that has been explored was to xor-obfuscate pointer spills
to the BPF stack:[...]
// preoccupy the CPU store port by running sequence of dummy stores.
[...]
2106: (63) *(u32 *)(r7 +29796) = r0
2107: (63) *(u32 *)(r7 +29800) = r0
2108: (63) *(u32 *)(r7 +29804) = r0
2109: (63) *(u32 *)(r7 +29808) = r0
2110: (63) *(u32 *)(r7 +29812) = r0
// overwrite scalar with dummy pointer; xored with random 'secret' value
// of 943576462 before store ...
2111: (b4) w11 = 943576462
2112: (af) r11 ^= r7
2113: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -16) = r11
2114: (79) r11 = *(u64 *)(r10 -16)
2115: (b4) w2 = 943576462
2116: (af) r2 ^= r11
// ... and restored with the same 'secret' value with the help of AX reg.
2117: (71) r3 = *(u8 *)(r2 +0)
[...]While the above would not prevent speculation, it would make data leakage
infeasible by directing it to random locations. In order to be effective
and prevent type confusion under speculation, such random secret would have
to be regenerated for each store. The additional complexity involved for a
tracking mechanism that prevents jumps such that restoring spilled pointers
would not get corrupted is not worth the gain for unprivileged. Hence, the
fix in here eventually opted for emitting a non-public BPF_ST | BPF_NOSPEC
instruction which the x86 JIT translates into a lfence opcode. Inserting the
latter in between the store and load instruction is one of the mitigations
options [1]. The x86 instruction manual notes:[...] An LFENCE that follows an instruction that stores to memory might
complete before the data being stored have become globally visible. [...]The latter meaning that the preceding store instruction finished execution
and the store is at minimum guaranteed to be in the CPU's store queue, but
it's not guaranteed to be in that CPU's L1 cache at that point (globally
visible). The latter would only be guaranteed via sfence. So the load which
is guaranteed to execute after the lfence for that local CPU would have to
rely on store-to-load forwarding. [2], in section 2.3 on store buffers says:[...] For every store operation that is added to the ROB, an entry is
allocated in the store buffer. This entry requires both the virtual and
physical address of the target. Only if there is no free entry in the store
buffer, the frontend stalls until there is an empty slot available in the
store buffer again. Otherwise, the CPU can immediately continue adding
subsequent instructions to the ROB and execute them out of order. On Intel
CPUs, the store buffer has up to 56 entries. [...]One small upside on the fix is that it lifts constraints from af86ca4e3088
where the sanitize_stack_off relative to r10 must be the same when coming
from different paths. The BPF_ST | BPF_NOSPEC gets emitted after a BPF_STX
or BPF_ST instruction. This happens either when we store a pointer or data
value to the BPF stack for the first time, or upon later pointer spills.
The former needs to be enforced since otherwise stale stack data could be
leaked under speculation as outlined earlier. For non-x86 JITs the BPF_ST |
BPF_NOSPEC mapping is currently optimized away, but others could emit a
speculation barrier as well if necessary. For real-world unprivileged
programs e.g. generated by LLVM, pointer spill/fill is only generated upon
register pressure and LLVM only tries to do that for pointers which are not
used often. The program main impact will be the initial BPF_ST | BPF_NOSPEC
sanitation for the STACK_INVALID case when the first write to a stack slot
occurs e.g. upon map lookup. In future we might refine ways to mitigate
the latter cost.[0] https://arxiv.org/pdf/1902.05178.pdf

In case of JITs, each of the JIT backends compiles the BPF nospec instruction
/either/ to a machine instruction which emits a speculation barrier /or/ to
/no/ machine instruction in case the underlying architecture is not affected
by Speculative Store Bypass or has different mitigations in place already.This covers both x86 and (implicitly) arm64: In case of x86, we use 'lfence'
instruction for mitigation. In case of arm64, we rely on the firmware mitigation
as controlled via the ssbd kernel parameter. Whenever the mitigation is enabled,
it works for all of the kernel code with no need to provide any additional
instructions here (hence only comment in arm64 JIT). Other archs can follow
as needed. The BPF nospec instruction is specifically targeting Spectre v4
since i) we don't use a serialization barrier for the Spectre v1 case, and
ii) mitigation instructions for v1 and v4 might be different on some archs.The BPF nospec is required for a future commit, where the BPF verifier does
annotate intermediate BPF programs with speculation barriers.Co-developed-by: Piotr Krysiuk

==================================================================- The race fix has two parts.
* Changing the code to guarantee that ucounts->count is only decremented
when ucounts_lock is held. This guarantees that find_ucounts
will never find a structure with a zero reference count.
* Changing alloc_ucounts to increment ucounts->count while
ucounts_lock is held. This guarantees the reference count on the
found data structure will not be decremented to zero (and the data
structure freed) before the reference count is incremented.

workqueue: fix UAF in pwq_unbound_release_workfn() -
syzbot reported KCSAN data races vs. timer_base::timer_running being set to
NULL without holding base::lock in expire_timers().This looks innocent and most reads are clearly not problematic, but
Frederic identified an issue which is:int data = 0;
void timer_func(struct timer_list *t)
{
data = 1;
}CPU 0 CPU 1
------------------------------ --------------------------
base = lock_timer_base(timer, &flags); raw_spin_unlock(&base->lock);
if (base->running_timer != timer) call_timer_fn(timer, fn, baseclk);
ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true); base->running_timer = NULL;
raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(&base->lock, flags); raw_spin_lock(&base->lock);x = data;
If the timer has previously executed on CPU 1 and then CPU 0 can observe
base->running_timer == NULL and returns, assuming the timer has completed,
but it's not guaranteed on all architectures. The comment for
del_timer_sync() makes that guarantee. Moving the assignment under
base->lock prevents this.For non-RT kernel it's performance wise completely irrelevant whether the
store happens before or after taking the lock. For an RT kernel moving the
store under the lock requires an extra unlock/lock pair in the case that
there is a waiter for the timer, but that's not the end of the world.Reported-by: syzbot+aa7c2385d46c5eba0b89@syzkaller.appspotmail.com

gcc doesn't care, but clang quite reasonably pointed out that the recent
commit e9ba16e68cce ("smpboot: Mark idle_init() as __always_inlined to
work around aggressive compiler un-inlining") did some really odd
things:kernel/smpboot.c:50:20: warning: duplicate 'inline' declaration specifier [-Wduplicate-decl-specifier]
static inline void __always_inline idle_init(unsigned int cpu)
^which not only has that duplicate inlining specifier, but the new
__always_inline was put in the wrong place of the function definition.We put the storage class specifiers (ie things like "static" and
"extern") first, and the type information after that. And while the
compiler may not care, we put the inline specifier before the types.So it should be just
static __always_inline void idle_init(unsigned int cpu)
instead.

Because of the significant overhead that retpolines pose on indirect
calls, the tracepoint code was updated to use the new "static_calls" that
can modify the running code to directly call a function instead of using
an indirect caller, and this function can be changed at runtime.In the tracepoint code that calls all the registered callbacks that are
attached to a tracepoint, the following is done:it_func_ptr = rcu_dereference_raw((&__tracepoint_##name)->funcs);
if (it_func_ptr) {
__data = (it_func_ptr)->data;
static_call(tp_func_##name)(__data, args);
}If there's just a single callback, the static_call is updated to just call
that callback directly. Once another handler is added, then the static
caller is updated to call the iterator, that simply loops over all the
funcs in the array and calls each of the callbacks like the old method
using indirect calling.The issue was discovered with a race between updating the funcs array and
updating the static_call. The funcs array was updated first and then the
static_call was updated. This is not an issue as long as the first element
in the old array is the same as the first element in the new array. But
that assumption is incorrect, because callbacks also have a priority
field, and if there's a callback added that has a higher priority than the
callback on the old array, then it will become the first callback in the
new array. This means that it is possible to call the old callback with
the new callback data element, which can cause a kernel panic.static_call = callback1()
funcs[] = {callback1,data1};
callback2 has higher priority than callback1CPU 1 CPU 2
----- -----new_funcs = {callback2,data2},
{callback1,data1}rcu_assign_pointer(tp->funcs, new_funcs);
/*
* Now tp->funcs has the new array
* but the static_call still calls callback1
*/it_func_ptr = tp->funcs [ new_funcs ]
data = it_func_ptr->data [ data2 ]
static_call(callback1, data);/* Now callback1 is called with
* callback2's data */[ KERNEL PANIC ]
update_static_call(iterator);
To prevent this from happening, always switch the static_call to the
iterator before assigning the tp->funcs to the new array. The iterator will
always properly match the callback with its data.To trigger this bug:
In one terminal:
while :; do hackbench 50; done
In another terminal
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/enable
while :; do
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event_pid;
sleep 0.5
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event_pid;
sleep 0.5
doneAnd it doesn't take long to crash. This is because the set_event_pid adds
a callback to the sched_waking tracepoint with a high priority, which will
be called before the sched_waking trace event callback is called.Note, the removal to a single callback updates the array first, before
changing the static_call to single callback, which is the proper order as
the first element in the array is the same as what the static_call is
being changed to.Link: https://lore.kernel.org/io-uring/4ebea8f0-58c9-e571-fd30-0ce4f6f09c70@samba.org/

alloc_synth_event() currently has the following code to initialize the
event fields and dynamic_fields:for (i = 0, j = 0; i < n_fields; i++) {
event->fields[i] = fields[i];if (fields[i]->is_dynamic) {
event->dynamic_fields[j] = fields[i];
event->dynamic_fields[j]->field_pos = i;
event->dynamic_fields[j++] = fields[i];
event->n_dynamic_fields++;
}
}1) It would make more sense to have all fields keep track of their
field_pos.2) event->dynmaic_fields[j] is assigned twice for no reason.
3) We can move updating event->n_dynamic_fields outside the loop, and just
assign it to j.This combination makes the code much cleaner.

Currently the histogram logic allows the user to write "cpu" in as an
event field, and it will record the CPU that the event happened on.The problem with this is that there's a lot of events that have "cpu"
as a real field, and using "cpu" as the CPU it ran on, makes it
impossible to run histograms on the "cpu" field of events.For example, if I want to have a histogram on the count of the
workqueue_queue_work event on its cpu field, running:># echo 'hist:keys=cpu' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger
Gives a misleading and wrong result.
Change the command to "common_cpu" as no event should have "common_*"
fields as that's a reserved name for fields used by all events. And
this makes sense here as common_cpu would be a field used by all events.Now we can even do:
># echo 'hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu if cpu < 100' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger
># cat events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/hist
# event histogram
#
# trigger info: hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu:vals=hitcount:sort=hitcount:size=2048 if cpu < 100 [active]
#{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 7, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 2
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 2
{ common_cpu: 1, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 4
{ common_cpu: 6, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 4
{ common_cpu: 5, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 14
{ common_cpu: 4, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 26
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 0 } hitcount: 39
{ common_cpu: 2, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 184Now for backward compatibility, I added a trick. If "cpu" is used, and
the field is not found, it will fall back to "common_cpu" and work as
it did before. This way, it will still work for old programs that use
"cpu" to get the actual CPU, but if the event has a "cpu" as a field, it
will get that event's "cpu" field, which is probably what it wants
anyway.I updated the tracefs/README to include documentation about both the
common_timestamp and the common_cpu. This way, if that text is present in
the README, then an application can know that common_cpu is supported over
just plain "cpu".Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210721110053.26b4f641@oasis.local.home

The "rb_per_cpu_empty()" misinterpret the condition (as not-empty) when
"head_page" and "commit_page" of "struct ring_buffer_per_cpu" points to
the same buffer page, whose "buffer_data_page" is empty and "read" field
is non-zero.An error scenario could be constructed as followed (kernel perspective):
1. All pages in the buffer has been accessed by reader(s) so that all of
them will have non-zero "read" field.2. Read and clear all buffer pages so that "rb_num_of_entries()" will
return 0 rendering there's no more data to read. It is also required
that the "read_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to the same
page, while "head_page" is the next page of them.3. Invoke "ring_buffer_lock_reserve()" with large enough "length"
so that it shot pass the end of current tail buffer page. Now the
"head_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to the same page.4. Discard current event with "ring_buffer_discard_commit()", so that
"head_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to a page whose buffer
data page is now empty.When the error scenario has been constructed, "tracing_read_pipe" will
be trapped inside a deadloop: "trace_empty()" returns 0 since
"rb_per_cpu_empty()" returns 0 when it hits the CPU containing such
constructed ring buffer. Then "trace_find_next_entry_inc()" always
return NULL since "rb_num_of_entries()" reports there's no more entry
to read. Finally "trace_seq_to_user()" returns "-EBUSY" spanking
"tracing_read_pipe" back to the start of the "waitagain" loop.I've also written a proof-of-concept script to construct the scenario
and trigger the bug automatically, you can use it to trace and validate
my reasoning above:https://github.com/aegistudio/RingBufferDetonator.git
Tests has been carried out on linux kernel 5.14-rc2
(2734d6c1b1a089fb593ef6a23d4b70903526fe0c), my fixed version

Richard reported sporadic (roughly one in 10 or so) null dereferences and
other strange behaviour for a set of automated LTP tests. Things like:BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008

RIP: 0010:do_readlinkat+0x86/0x120There were other less common instances of some kind of a general scribble
but the common theme was mount and cgroup and a dubious dentry triggering
the NULL dereference. I was only able to reproduce it under qemu by
replicating Richard's setup as closely as possible - I never did get it
to happen on bare metal, even while keeping everything else the same.In commit 71d883c37e8d ("cgroup_do_mount(): massage calling conventions")
we see this as a part of the overall change:--------------
struct cgroup_subsys *ss;
- struct dentry *dentry;[...]
- dentry = cgroup_do_mount(&cgroup_fs_type, fc->sb_flags, root,
- CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC, ns);[...]
- if (percpu_ref_is_dying(&root->cgrp.self.refcnt)) {
- struct super_block *sb = dentry->d_sb;
- dput(dentry);
+ ret = cgroup_do_mount(fc, CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC, ns);
+ if (!ret && percpu_ref_is_dying(&root->cgrp.self.refcnt)) {
+ struct super_block *sb = fc->root->d_sb;
+ dput(fc->root);
deactivate_locked_super(sb);
msleep(10);
return restart_syscall();
}
--------------In changing from the local "*dentry" variable to using fc->root, we now
export/leave that dentry pointer in the file context after doing the dput()
in the unlikely "is_dying" case. With LTP doing a crazy amount of back to
back mount/unmount [testcases/bin/cgroup_regression_5_1.sh] the unlikely
becomes slightly likely and then bad things happen.A fix would be to not leave the stale reference in fc->root as follows:
--------------
dput(fc->root);
+ fc->root = NULL;
deactivate_locked_super(sb);
--------------...but then we are just open-coding a duplicate of fc_drop_locked() so we
simply use that instead.Cc: Al Viro
