[PATCH v4 1/4] coresight: tmc-etr: Do not call smp_processor_id() from preemptible

From: Suzuki K Poulose
Date: Thu Jun 06 2019 - 12:21:22 EST


During a perf session we try to allocate buffers on the "node" associated
with the CPU the event is bound to. If it's not bound to a CPU, we use
the current CPU node, using smp_processor_id(). However this is unsafe
in a pre-emptible context and could generate the splats as below :

BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: perf/1743
caller is alloc_etr_buf.isra.6+0x80/0xa0
CPU: 1 PID: 1743 Comm: perf Not tainted 5.1.0-rc6-147786-g116841e #344

Use NUMA_NO_NODE hint instead of using the current node for events
not bound to CPUs.
