[[RFC]PATCH] psi: fix race between psi_trigger_create and psimon
From: Huangzhaoyang
Date: Mon May 17 2021 - 05:05:38 EST
From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang@xxxxxxxxxx>
Race detected between psimon_new and psimon_old as shown below, which
cause panic by accessing invalid psi_system->poll_wait->wait_queue_entry
and psi_system->poll_timer->entry->next. It is not necessary to reinit
resource of psi_system when psi_trigger_create.
psi_trigger_create psimon_new psimon_old
init_waitqueue_head finish_wait
spin_lock(lock_old)
spin_lock_init(lock_new)
wake_up_process(psimon_new)
finish_wait
spin_lock(lock_new)
list_del list_del
