Revision a051f220d6b9bf9367695e2c319ccc3712b631ee authored by Thomas Gleixner on 21 December 2016, 19:19:48 UTC, committed by Thomas Gleixner on 25 December 2016, 09:47:40 UTC
The cpu hotplug support of this perf driver is broken in several ways: 1) It adds a instance before setting up the state. 2) The state for the instance is different from the state of the callback. It's just a randomly chosen state. 3) The instance registration is not error checked so nobody noticed that the call can never succeed. 4) The state for the multi install callbacks is chosen randomly and overwrites existing state. This is now prevented by the core code so the call is guaranteed to fail. 5) The error exit path in the init function leaves the instance registered and then frees the memory which contains the enqueued hlist node. 6) The remove function is removing the state and not the instance. Fix it by: - Setting up the state before adding instances. Use a dynamically allocated state for it. - Installing instances after the state has been set up - Removing the instance in the error path before freeing memory - Removing the instance not the state in the driver remove callback While at is use raw_cpu_processor_id(), because cpu_processor_id() cannot be used in preemptible context, and set the driver data after successful registration of the pmu.
