[PATCH v3 1/3] tracing: Fix to check event_mutex is held while accessing trigger list
From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google)
Date: Mon Aug 22 2022 - 22:59:18 EST
From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>
Since the check_user_trigger() is called outside of RCU
read lock, this list_for_each_entry_rcu() caused a suspicious
RCU usage warning.
# echo hist:keys=pid > events/sched/sched_stat_runtime/trigger
# cat events/sched/sched_stat_runtime/trigger
[ 43.167032]
[ 43.167418] =============================
[ 43.167992] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
[ 43.168567] 5.19.0-rc5-00029-g19ebe4651abf #59 Not tainted
[ 43.169283] -----------------------------
[ 43.169863] kernel/trace/trace_events_trigger.c:145 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!
...
However, this file->triggers list is safe when it is accessed
under event_mutex is held.
To fix this warning, adds a lockdep_is_held check to the
list_for_each_entry_rcu().
