The diff below from your mail includes both of these steps (v1 -> v3). Changes from v2 -> v3: Split up the free loop, so now we do it in three steps: 1) loop through setting the buffers to NULL, 2) synchronize_rcu() *once*, 3) loop through freeing each of the buffers. This requires allocating some memory to hold the not-yet-freed buffer pointers, but it means much less waiting as doing synchronize_rcu() in a loop is expensive. Again, per Steven's suggestion. Changes from v1 -> v2: Rewrote the fix to use mutex + RCU instead of doing some hand-rolled reference count thing, as per Steven's suggestion. > > The difference is quite large: > > --- > a/mm/mmap_lock.c~mmap_lock-add-tracepoints-around-lock-acquisition-fix-fix > +++ a/mm/mmap_lock.c > @@ -3,13 +3,13 @@ > #include <trace/events/mmap_lock.h> > > #include <linux/mm.h> > -#include <linux/atomic.h> > #include <linux/cgroup.h> > #include <linux/memcontrol.h> > #include <linux/mmap_lock.h> > +#include <linux/mutex.h> > #include <linux/percpu.h> > +#include <linux/rcupdate.h> > #include <linux/smp.h> > -#include <linux/spinlock.h> > #include <linux/trace_events.h> > > EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL(mmap_lock_start_locking); > @@ -19,28 +19,13 @@ EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL(mmap_lock_relea > #ifdef CONFIG_MEMCG > > /* > - * This is unfortunately complicated... _reg() and _unreg() may be called > - * in parallel, separately for each of our three event types.

syzbot reported[1] a use-after-free introduced in 0f818c4bc1f3. The bug is that an ongoing trace event might race with the tracepoint being disabled (and therefore the _unreg() callback being called). Consider this ordering: T1: trace event fires, get_mm_memcg_path() is called T1: get_memcg_path_buf() returns a buffer pointer T2: trace_mmap_lock_unreg() is called, buffers are freed T1: cgroup_path() is called with the now-freed buffer The solution in this commit is to switch to mutex + RCU. With the RCU API we can first stop new buffers from being handed out, then wait for existing users to finish, and *then* free the buffers. I have a simple reproducer program which spins up two pools of threads, doing the following in a tight loop: Pool 1: mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) munmap() Pool 2: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/mmap_lock/enable echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/mmap_lock/enable This triggers the use-after-free very quickly. With this patch, I let it run for an hour without any BUGs. While fixing this, I also noticed and fixed a css ref leak. Previously we called get_mem_cgroup_from_mm(), but we never called css_put() to release that reference. get_mm_memcg_path() now does this properly.
