Subject[PATCH v2] perf/core: Fix data race between perf_event_set_output and perf_mmap_close
Date
Data race exists between perf_event_set_output and perf_mmap_close.
The scenario is as follows:

CPU1 CPU2
perf_mmap_close(event2)
if (atomic_dec_and_test(&event2->rb->mmap_count) // mmap_count 1 -> 0
detach_rest = true;
ioctl(event1, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT, event2)
perf_event_set_output(event1, event2)
if (!detach_rest)
goto out_put;
list_for_each_entry_rcu(event, &event2->rb->event_list, rb_entry)
ring_buffer_attach(event, NULL)
// because event1 has not been added to event2->rb->event_list,
// event1->rb is not set to NULL in these loops

ring_buffer_attach(event1, event2->rb)
list_add_rcu(&event1->rb_entry, &event2->rb->event_list)

The above data race causes a problem, that is, event1->rb is not NULL, but event1->rb->mmap_count is 0.
If the perf_mmap interface is invoked for the fd of event1, the kernel keeps in the perf_mmap infinite loop:

again:
mutex_lock(&event->mmap_mutex);
if (event->rb) {
<SNIP>
if (!atomic_inc_not_zero(&event->rb->mmap_count)) {
/*
* Raced against perf_mmap_close() through
* perf_event_set_output(). Try again, hope for better
* luck.
*/
mutex_unlock(&event->mmap_mutex);
goto again;
}
<SNIP>

This problem has occurred on the Syzkaller, causing the softlockup. The call stack is as follows:

perf_mmap_close and ring_buffer_attach involve complicated lock recursion.
The solution is to modify ring_buffer_attach function, that is,
after new event is added to rb->event_list, check whether rb->mmap_count is 0,
if the value is 0, another core performs perf_mmap_close operation
on ring buffer during this period. In this case, we set event->rb to NULL.
