mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.0 commit 6b959ba22d34ca793ffdb15b5715457c78e38b1a category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I60M4W CVE: NA
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?h...
--------------------------------
perf_output_read_group may respond to IPI request of other cores and invoke __perf_install_in_context function. As a result, hwc configuration is modified. causing inconsistency and unexpected consequences.
Interrupts are not disabled when perf_output_read_group reads PMU counter. In this case, IPI request may be received from other cores. As a result, PMU configuration is modified and an error occurs when reading PMU counter:
