[PATCH 5.10 020/101] perf/x86/lbr: Remove cpuc->lbr_xsave allocation from atomic context
From: Sasha Levin
Date: Mon Jun 28 2021 - 10:31:16 EST
From: Like Xu <like.xu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 488e13a489e9707a7e81e1991fdd1f20c0f04689 ]
If the kernel is compiled with the CONFIG_LOCKDEP option, the conditional
might_sleep_if() deep in kmem_cache_alloc() will generate the following
trace, and potentially cause a deadlock when another LBR event is added:
[] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/sched/mm.h:196
[] Call Trace:
[] kmem_cache_alloc+0x36/0x250
[] intel_pmu_lbr_add+0x152/0x170
[] x86_pmu_add+0x83/0xd0
Make it symmetric with the release_lbr_buffers() call and mirror the
existing DS buffers.
