4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Rob Gardner <rob.gardner@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit fc290a114fc6034b0f6a5a46e2fb7d54976cf87a ] This fixes another cause of random segfaults and bus errors that may occur while running perf with the callgraph option. Critical sections beginning with spin_lock_irqsave() raise the interrupt level to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14) and intentionally do not block performance counter interrupts, which arrive at PIL_NMI (15). But some sections of code are "super critical" with respect to perf because the perf_callchain_user() path accesses user space and may cause TLB activity as well as faults as it unwinds the user stack. One particular critical section occurs in switch_mm: spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->context.lock, flags); ... load_secondary_context(mm); tsb_context_switch(mm); ... spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->context.lock, flags); If a perf interrupt arrives in between load_secondary_context() and tsb_context_switch(), then perf_callchain_user() could execute with the context ID of one process, but with an active TSB for a different process. When the user stack is accessed, it is very likely to incur a TLB miss, since the h/w context ID has been changed. The TLB will then be reloaded with a translation from the TSB for one process, but using a context ID for another process. This exposes memory from one process to another, and since it is a mapping for stack memory, this usually causes the new process to crash quickly. This super critical section needs more protection than is provided by spin_lock_irqsave() since perf interrupts must not be allowed in. Since __tsb_context_switch already goes through the trouble of disabling interrupts completely, we fix this by moving the secondary context load down into this better protected region.
