perf/core: Fix perf_cgroup_switch()
There is a race problem that can trigger WARN_ON_ONCE(cpuctx->cgrp) in perf_cgroup_switch(). CPU1 CPU2 perf_cgroup_sched_out(prev, next) cgrp1 = perf_cgroup_from_task(prev) cgrp2 = perf_cgroup_from_task(next) if (cgrp1 != cgrp2) perf_cgroup_switch(prev, PERF_CGROUP_SWOUT) cgroup_migrate_execute() task->cgroups = ? perf_cgroup_attach() task_function_call(task, __perf_cgroup_move) perf_cgroup_sched_in(prev, next) cgrp1 = perf_cgroup_from_task(prev) cgrp2 = perf_cgroup_from_task(next) if (cgrp1 != cgrp2) perf_cgroup_switch(next, PERF_CGROUP_SWIN) __perf_cgroup_move() perf_cgroup_switch(task, PERF_CGROUP_SWOUT | PERF_CGROUP_SWIN) The commit a8d757ef076f ("perf events: Fix slow and broken cgroup context switch code") want to skip perf_cgroup_switch() when the perf_cgroup of "prev" and "next" are the same. But task->cgroups can change in concurrent with context_switch() in cgroup_migrate_execute(). If cgrp1 == cgrp2 in sched_out(), cpuctx won't do sched_out. Then task->cgroups changed cause cgrp1 != cgrp2 in sched_in(), cpuctx will do sched_in. So trigger WARN_ON_ONCE(cpuctx->cgrp). Even though __perf_cgroup_move() will be synchronized as the context switch disables the interrupt, context_switch() still can see the task->cgroups is changing in the middle, since task->cgroups changed before sending IPI. So we have to combine perf_cgroup_sched_in() into perf_cgroup_sched_out(), unified into perf_cgroup_switch(), to fix the incosistency between perf_cgroup_sched_out() and perf_cgroup_sched_in(). But we can't just compare prev->cgroups with next->cgroups to decide whether to skip cpuctx sched_out/in since the prev->cgroups is changing too. For example: CPU1 CPU2 cgroup_migrate_execute() prev->cgroups = ? perf_cgroup_attach() task_function_call(task, __perf_cgroup_move) perf_cgroup_switch(task) cgrp1 = perf_cgroup_from_task(prev) cgrp2 = perf_cgroup_from_task(next) if (cgrp1 != cgrp2) cpuctx sched_out/in ... task_function_call() will return -ESRCH In the above example, prev->cgroups changing cause (cgrp1 == cgrp2) to be true, so skip cpuctx sched_out/in. And later task_function_call() would return -ESRCH since the prev task isn't running on cpu anymore. So we would leave perf_events of the old prev->cgroups still sched on the CPU, which is wrong. The solution is that we should use cpuctx->cgrp to compare with the next task's perf_cgroup. Since cpuctx->cgrp can only be changed on local CPU, and we have irq disabled, we can read cpuctx->cgrp to compare without holding ctx lock.
