[ Upstream commit 003659fec9f6d8c04738cb74b5384398ae8a7e88 ] There is a fairly obvious race between perf_init_event() doing idr_find() and perf_pmu_register() doing idr_alloc() with an incompletely initialized PMU pointer. Avoid by doing idr_alloc() on a NULL pointer to register the id, and swizzling the real struct pmu pointer at the end using idr_replace(). Also making sure to not set struct pmu members after publishing the struct pmu, duh. [ introduce idr_cmpxchg() in order to better handle the idr_replace() error case -- if it were to return an unexpected pointer, it will already have replaced the value and there is no going back. ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241104135517.858805880@infradead.org Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
