ARM: perf: reject groups spanning multiple hardware PMUs
The perf core implicitly rejects events spanning multiple HW PMUs, as in these cases the event->ctx will differ. However this validation is performed after pmu::event_init() is called in perf_init_event(), and thus pmu::event_init() may be called with a group leader from a different HW PMU. The ARM PMU driver does not take this fact into account, and when validating groups assumes that it can call to_arm_pmu(event->pmu) for any HW event. When the event in question is from another HW PMU this is wrong, and results in dereferencing garbage. This patch updates the ARM PMU driver to first test for and reject events from other PMUs, moving the to_arm_pmu and related logic after this test. Fixes a crash triggered by perf_fuzzer on Linux-4.0-rc2, with a CCI PMU present: --- CPU: 0 PID: 1527 Comm: perf_fuzzer Not tainted 4.0.0-rc2 #57 Hardware name: ARM-Versatile Express task: bd8484c0 ti: be676000 task.ti: be676000 PC is at 0xbf1bbc90 LR is at validate_event+0x34/0x5c pc : [<bf1bbc90>] lr : [<80016060>] psr: 00000013 ...
