hulk inclusion category: bugfix bugzilla: N/A CVE: N/A ------------------------------ When we are in the arch_get_cpu_freq func for the first time, after arch_probe_cpu_freq is excuted, the return of smp_processor_id() will change due to preemption while cpu_freq get the freq belong to original processor id, so pr_info will print the freq with wrong processor id like below table from dmesg: [ 1.713211] NMI watchdog: CPU1 freq probed as 2189072384 HZ. [ 1.810819] NMI watchdog: CPU1 freq probed as 2192003108 HZ. [ 1.909910] NMI watchdog: CPU2 freq probed as 2191345967 HZ. [ 2.015327] NMI watchdog: CPU3 freq probed as 2189460398 HZ. Actually, the first line should print the freq of CPU0, this bu can occur in virtual machine with less then 17 vCPUs. Changing smp_processor_id() to cpu will fix the bug Signed-off-by: Wenchao Qin <qinwenchao@cmss.chinamobile.com> --- arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c index fe56277..d685a27 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/smp.c @@ -1457,7 +1457,7 @@ static u64 arch_get_cpu_freq(void) if (!cpu_freq) { cpu_freq = arch_probe_cpu_freq(); pr_info("NMI watchdog: CPU%u freq probed as %llu HZ.\n", - smp_processor_id(), cpu_freq); + cpu, cpu_freq); if (!cpu_freq) cpu_freq = -1; per_cpu(cpu_freq_probed, cpu) = cpu_freq; -- 1.8.3.1
