There are other examples of trace points using cgroup_ino and no need to allocate buffers. Also cgroup namespace might complicate the path usage. > > The solution in this commit is to modify trace_mmap_lock_unreg() to > first stop new buffers from being handed out, and then to wait (spin) > until any existing buffer references are dropped (i.e., those trace > events complete). > > I have a simple reproducer program which spins up two pools of threads, > doing the following in a tight loop: > > Pool 1: > mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, > MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) > munmap() > > Pool 2: > echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/mmap_lock/enable > echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/mmap_lock/enable > > This triggers the use-after-free very quickly.
