From: Quanyang Wang <quanyang.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 4cd2bb12981165f865d2b8ed92b446b52310ef74 upstream. Since sched_clock_read_begin() and sched_clock_read_retry() are called by notrace function sched_clock(), they shouldn't be traceable either, or else ftrace_graph_caller will run into a dead loop on the path as below (arm for instance): ftrace_graph_caller() prepare_ftrace_return() function_graph_enter() ftrace_push_return_trace() trace_clock_local() sched_clock() sched_clock_read_begin/retry() Fixes: 1b86abc1c645 ("sched_clock: Expose struct clock_read_data") Signed-off-by: Quanyang Wang <quanyang.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200929082027.16787-1-quanyang.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- kernel/time/sched_clock.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) --- a/kernel/time/sched_clock.c +++ b/kernel/time/sched_clock.c @@ -68,13 +68,13 @@ static inline u64 notrace cyc_to_ns(u64 return (cyc * mult) >> shift; } -struct clock_read_data *sched_clock_read_begin(unsigned int *seq) +notrace struct clock_read_data *sched_clock_read_begin(unsigned int *seq) { *seq = raw_read_seqcount_latch(&cd.seq); return cd.read_data + (*seq & 1); } -int sched_clock_read_retry(unsigned int seq) +notrace int sched_clock_read_retry(unsigned int seq) { return read_seqcount_retry(&cd.seq, seq); }
