      perf: Fix perf_event_init_task()/perf_event_free_task() interaction · 8550d7cb
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      perf_event_init_task() should clear child->perf_event_ctxp[]
      before anything else. Otherwise, if
      perf_event_init_context(perf_hw_context) fails,
      perf_event_free_task() can free perf_event_ctxp[perf_sw_context]
      copied from parent->perf_event_ctxp[] by dup_task_struct().
      
      Also move the initialization of perf_event_mutex and
      perf_event_list from perf_event_init_context() to
      perf_event_init_context().

      perf: Fix find_get_context() vs perf_event_exit_task() race · dbe08d82
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      find_get_context() must not install the new perf_event_context
      if the task has already passed perf_event_exit_task().
      
      If nothing else, this means the memory leak. Initially
      ctx->refcount == 2, it is supposed that
      perf_event_exit_task_context() should participate and do the
      necessary put_ctx().
      
      find_lively_task_by_vpid() checks PF_EXITING but this buys
      nothing, by the time we call find_get_context() this task can be
      already dead. To the point, cmpxchg() can succeed when the task
      has already done the last schedule().
      
      Change find_get_context() to populate task->perf_event_ctxp[]
      under task->perf_event_mutex, this way we can trust PF_EXITING
      because perf_event_exit_task() takes the same mutex.
      
      Also, change perf_event_exit_task_context() to use
      rcu_dereference(). Probably this is not strictly needed, but
      with or without this change find_get_context() can race with
      setup_new_exec()->perf_event_exit_task(), rcu_dereference()
      looks better.
