commit 78f7a45dac2a2d2002f98a3a95f7979867868d73 upstream.
I noticed that reading the snapshot file when it is empty no longer gives a
status. It suppose to show the status of the snapshot buffer as well as how
to allocate and use it. For example:
># cat snapshot
# tracer: nop
#
#
# * Snapshot is allocated *
#
# Snapshot commands:
# echo 0 > snapshot : Clears and frees snapshot buffer
# echo 1 > snapshot : Allocates snapshot buffer, if not already allocated.
# Takes a snapshot of the main buffer.
# echo 2 > snapshot : Clears snapshot buffer (but does not allocate or free)
# (Doesn't have to be '2' works with any number that
# is not a '0' or '1')
But instead it just showed an empty buffer:
># cat snapshot
# tracer: nop
#
# entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 0/0 #P:4
#
# _-----=> irqs-off
# / _----=> need-resched
# | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
# || / _--=> preempt-depth
# ||| / delay
# TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | |||| | |
What happened was that it was using the ring_buffer_iter_empty() function to
see if it was empty, and if it was, it showed the status. But that function
was returning false when it was empty. The reason was that the iter header
page was on the reader page, and the reader page was empty, but so was the
buffer itself. The check only tested to see if the iter was on the commit
page, but the commit page was no longer pointing to the reader page, but as
all pages were empty, the buffer is also.

commit df62db5be2e5f070ecd1a5ece5945b590ee112e0 upstream.
Currently the snapshot trigger enables the probe and then allocates the
snapshot. If the probe triggers before the allocation, it could cause the
snapshot to fail and turn tracing off. It's best to allocate the snapshot
buffer first, and then enable the trigger. If something goes wrong in the
enabling of the trigger, the snapshot buffer is still allocated, but it can
also be freed by the user by writting zero into the snapshot buffer file.
Also add a check of the return status of alloc_snapshot().

commit 5402e97af667e35e54177af8f6575518bf251d51 upstream.
In PT_SEIZED + LISTEN mode STOP/CONT signals cause a wakeup against
__TASK_TRACED. If this races with the ptrace_unfreeze_traced at the end
of a PTRACE_LISTEN, this can wake the task /after/ the check against
__TASK_TRACED, but before the reset of state to TASK_TRACED. This
causes it to instead clobber TASK_WAKING, allowing a subsequent wakeup
against TRACED while the task is still on the rq wake_list, corrupting
it.
Oleg said:
"The kernel can crash or this can lead to other hard-to-debug problems.
In short, "task->state = TASK_TRACED" in ptrace_unfreeze_traced()
assumes that nobody else can wake it up, but PTRACE_LISTEN breaks the
contract. Obviusly it is very wrong to manipulate task->state if this
task is already running, or WAKING, or it sleeps again"

commit 777c6e0daebb3fcefbbd6f620410a946b07ef6d0 upstream.
Yu Zhao has noticed that __unregister_cpu_notifier only unregisters its
notifiers when HOTPLUG_CPU=y while the registration might succeed even
when HOTPLUG_CPU=n if MODULE is enabled. This means that e.g. zswap
might keep a stale notifier on the list on the manual clean up during
the pool tear down and thus corrupt the list. Resulting in the following

commit dbb26055defd03d59f678cb5f2c992abe05b064a upstream.
David reported a futex/rtmutex state corruption. It's caused by the
following problem:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
l->owner=T1
rt_mutex_lock(l)
lock(l->wait_lock)
l->owner = T1 | HAS_WAITERS;
enqueue(T2)
boost()
unlock(l->wait_lock)
schedule()
rt_mutex_lock(l)
lock(l->wait_lock)
l->owner = T1 | HAS_WAITERS;
enqueue(T3)
boost()
unlock(l->wait_lock)
schedule()
signal(->T2) signal(->T3)
lock(l->wait_lock)
dequeue(T2)
deboost()
unlock(l->wait_lock)
lock(l->wait_lock)
dequeue(T3)
===> wait list is now empty
deboost()
unlock(l->wait_lock)
lock(l->wait_lock)
fixup_rt_mutex_waiters()
if (wait_list_empty(l)) {
owner = l->owner & ~HAS_WAITERS;
l->owner = owner
==> l->owner = T1
}
lock(l->wait_lock)
rt_mutex_unlock(l) fixup_rt_mutex_waiters()
if (wait_list_empty(l)) {
owner = l->owner & ~HAS_WAITERS;
cmpxchg(l->owner, T1, NULL)
===> Success (l->owner = NULL)
l->owner = owner
==> l->owner = T1
}
That means the problem is caused by fixup_rt_mutex_waiters() which does the
RMW to clear the waiters bit unconditionally when there are no waiters in
the rtmutexes rbtree.
This can be fatal: A concurrent unlock can release the rtmutex in the
fastpath because the waiters bit is not set. If the cmpxchg() gets in the
middle of the RMW operation then the previous owner, which just unlocked
the rtmutex is set as the owner again when the write takes place after the
successfull cmpxchg().
The solution is rather trivial: verify that the owner member of the rtmutex
has the waiters bit set before clearing it. This does not require a
cmpxchg() or other atomic operations because the waiters bit can only be
set and cleared with the rtmutex wait_lock held. It's also safe against the
fast path unlock attempt. The unlock attempt via cmpxchg() will either see
the bit set and take the slowpath or see the bit cleared and release it
atomically in the fastpath.
It's remarkable that the test program provided by David triggers on ARM64
and MIPS64 really quick, but it refuses to reproduce on x86-64, while the
problem exists there as well. That refusal might explain that this got not
discovered earlier despite the bug existing from day one of the rtmutex
implementation more than 10 years ago.
Thanks to David for meticulously instrumenting the code and providing the
information which allowed to decode this subtle problem.
