------------------

From: Yonghong Song <yhs@xxxxxx>

commit 3a38bb98d9abdc3856f26b5ed4332803065cd7cf upstream.

syzbot reported a possible deadlock in perf_event_detach_bpf_prog.
The error details:

Possible unsafe locking scenario:

CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&mm->mmap_sem);
lock(bpf_event_mutex);
lock(&mm->mmap_sem);
lock(bpf_event_mutex);

*** DEADLOCK ***
======================================================

The bug is introduced by Commit f371b304f12e ("bpf/tracing: allow
user space to query prog array on the same tp") where copy_to_user,
which requires mm->mmap_sem, is called inside bpf_event_mutex lock.
At the same time, during perf_event file descriptor close,
mm->mmap_sem is held first and then subsequent
perf_event_detach_bpf_prog needs bpf_event_mutex lock.
Such a senario caused a deadlock.

As suggested by Daniel, moving copy_to_user out of the
bpf_event_mutex lock should fix the problem.
