[PATCH 6/6] tracing/ring-buffer: Fix wait_on_pipe() race

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

When the trace_pipe_raw file is closed, there should be no new readers on
the file descriptor. This is mostly handled with the waking and wait_index
fields of the iterator. But there's still a slight race.

     CPU 0				CPU 1
     -----				-----
 wait_woken_prepare()
    if (waking)
       woken = true;
    index = wait_index;
				   wait_woken_set()
				      waking = true
				      wait_index++;
				   ring_buffer_wake_waiters();
 wait_on_pipe()
    ring_buffer_wait();

The ring_buffer_wait() will miss the wakeup from CPU 1. The problem is
that the ring_buffer_wait() needs the logic of:

	prepare_to_wait();
	if (!condition)
		schedule();

Where the missing condition check is the iter->waking.

Either that condition check needs to be passed to ring_buffer_wait() or
the function needs to be broken up into three parts. This chooses to do
the break up.

Break ring_buffer_wait() into:

	ring_buffer_prepare_to_wait();
	ring_buffer_wait();
	ring_buffer_finish_wait();

Now wait_on_pipe() can have:

	ring_buffer_prepare_to_wait();
	if (!iter->waking)
		ring_buffer_wait();
	ring_buffer_finish_wait();

And this will catch the above race, as the waiter will either see waking,
or already have been woken up.
