perf: Fix perf_event_pmu_context serialization
Syzkaller triggered a WARN in put_pmu_ctx(). WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2245 at kernel/events/core.c:4925 put_pmu_ctx+0x1f0/0x278 This is because there is no locking around the access of "if (!epc->ctx)" in find_get_pmu_context() and when it is set to NULL in put_pmu_ctx(). The decrement of the reference count in put_pmu_ctx() also happens outside of the spinlock, leading to the possibility of this order of events, and the context being cleared in put_pmu_ctx(), after its refcount is non zero: CPU0 CPU1 find_get_pmu_context() if (!epc->ctx) == false put_pmu_ctx() atomic_dec_and_test(&epc->refcount) == true epc->refcount == 0 atomic_inc(&epc->refcount); epc->refcount == 1 list_del_init(&epc->pmu_ctx_entry); epc->ctx = NULL; Another issue is that WARN_ON for no active PMU events in put_pmu_ctx() is outside of the lock. If the perf_event_pmu_context is an embedded one, even after clearing it, it won't be deleted and can be re-used. So the warning can trigger. For this reason it also needs to be moved inside the lock. The above warning is very quick to trigger on Arm by running these two commands at the same time: while true; do perf record -- ls; done while true; do perf record -- ls; done [peterz: atomic_dec_and_raw_lock*()] Fixes: bd2756811766 ("perf: Rewrite core context handling") Reported-by: syzbot+697196bc0265049822bd@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: James Clark <james.clark@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@amd.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230127143141.1782804-2-james.clark@arm.com
