From d768173982ece75b8ef821897e32fd0da9d60131 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Leonard Crestez Date: Wed, 24 Jul 2019 15:53:24 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf/core: Fix creating kernel counters for PMUs that override event->cpu [ Upstream commit 4ce54af8b33d3e21ca935fc1b89b58cbba956051 ] Some hardware PMU drivers will override perf_event.cpu inside their event_init callback. This causes a lockdep splat when initialized through the kernel API: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 250 at kernel/events/core.c:2917 ctx_sched_out+0x78/0x208 pc : ctx_sched_out+0x78/0x208 Call trace: ctx_sched_out+0x78/0x208 __perf_install_in_context+0x160/0x248 remote_function+0x58/0x68 generic_exec_single+0x100/0x180 smp_call_function_single+0x174/0x1b8 perf_install_in_context+0x178/0x188 perf_event_create_kernel_counter+0x118/0x160 Fix this by calling perf_install_in_context with event->cpu, just like perf_event_open Signed-off-by: Leonard Crestez Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Reviewed-by: Mark Rutland Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Frank Li Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Linus Torvalds Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Will Deacon Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/c4ebe0503623066896d7046def4d6b1e06e0eb2e.1563972056.git.leonard.crestez@nxp.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin --- kernel/events/core.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/kernel/events/core.c b/kernel/events/core.c index e8979c72514b..7ca44b8523c8 100644 --- a/kernel/events/core.c +++ b/kernel/events/core.c @@ -10957,7 +10957,7 @@ perf_event_create_kernel_counter(struct perf_event_attr *attr, int cpu, goto err_unlock; } - perf_install_in_context(ctx, event, cpu); + perf_install_in_context(ctx, event, event->cpu); perf_unpin_context(ctx); mutex_unlock(&ctx->mutex); -- GitLab
