[PATCH bpf v2] bpf: preallocate a perf_sample_data per event fd

From: Matt Mullins
Date: Fri May 31 2019 - 18:42:21 EST


It is possible that a BPF program can be called while another BPF
program is executing bpf_perf_event_output. This has been observed with
I/O completion occurring as a result of an interrupt:

This also cannot be alleviated by further splitting the per-cpu
perf_sample_data structs (as in commit 283ca526a9bd ("bpf: fix
corruption on concurrent perf_event_output calls")), as a raw_tp could
be attached to the block:block_rq_complete tracepoint and execute during
another raw_tp. Instead, keep a pre-allocated perf_sample_data
structure per perf_event_array element and fail a bpf_perf_event_output
if that element is concurrently being used.

v1->v2:
keep a pointer to the struct perf_sample_data rather than directly
embedding it in the structure, avoiding the circular include and
removing the need for in_use. Suggested by Song.
