[PATCH 1/2] hw_breakpoint: Fix cpu check in task_bp_pinned(cpu)

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sat Jun 01 2013 - 14:25:48 EST


trinity fuzzer triggered WARN_ONCE("Can't find any breakpoint slot")
in arch_install_hw_breakpoint() but the problem is not arch-specific.

The problem is, task_bp_pinned(cpu) checks "cpu == iter->cpu" but
this doesn't account the "all cpus" events with iter->cpu < 0.

This means that, say, register_user_hw_breakpoint(tsk) can happily
create the arbitrary number > HBP_NUM of breakpoints which can not
be activated. toggle_bp_task_slot() is equally wrong by the same
reason and nr_task_bp_pinned[] can have negative entries.

Simple test:

# perl -e 'sleep 1 while 1' &
# perf record -e mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10 -p `pidof perl`

Before this patch this triggers the same problem/WARN_ON(), after
the patch it correctly fails with -ENOSPC.
