"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nperf/core: Order the PMU list to fix warning about unordered pmu_ctx_list\n\nSyskaller triggers a warning due to prev_epc->pmu != next_epc->pmu in\nperf_event_swap_task_ctx_data(). vmcore shows that two lists have the same\nperf_event_pmu_context, but not in the same order.\n\nThe problem is that the order of pmu_ctx_list for the parent is impacted by\nthe time when an event/PMU is added. While the order for a child is\nimpacted by the event order in the pinned_groups and flexible_groups. So\nthe order of pmu_ctx_list in the parent and child may be different.\n\nTo fix this problem, insert the perf_event_pmu_context to its proper place\nafter iteration of the pmu_ctx_list.\n\nThe follow testcase can trigger above warning:\n\n # perf record -e cycles --call-graph lbr -- taskset -c 3 ./a.out &\n # perf stat -e cpu-clock,cs -p xxx // xxx is the pid of a.out\n\n test.c\n\n void main() {\n int count = 0;\n pid_t pid;\n\n printf(\"%d running\\n\", getpid());\n sleep(30);\n printf(\"running\\n\");\n\n pid = fork();\n if (pid == -1) {\n printf(\"fork error\\n\");\n return;\n }\n if (pid == 0) {\n while (1) {\n count++;\n }\n } else {\n while (1) {\n count++;\n }\n }\n }\n\nThe testcase first opens an LBR event, so it will allocate task_ctx_data,\nand then open tracepoint and software events, so the parent context will\nhave 3 different perf_event_pmu_contexts. On inheritance, child ctx will\ninsert the perf_event_pmu_context in another order and the warning will\ntrigger.\n\n[ mingo: Tidied up the changelog. ]"
