Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tracing: Ensure visibility when inserting an element into tracing_map

Running the following two commands in parallel on a multi-processor AArch64 machine can sporadically produce an unexpected warning about duplicate histogram entries:

$ while true; do echo hist:key=id.syscall:val=hitcount > \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/hist sleep 0.001 done $ stress-ng --sysbadaddr $(nproc)

The warning looks as follows:

The problem appears to be caused by CPU reordering of writes issued from __tracing_map_insert().

The check for the presence of an element with a given key in this function is:

val = READ_ONCE(entry->val); if (val && keys_match(key, val->key, map->key_size)) ...

The write of a new entry is:

elt = get_free_elt(map); memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size); entry->val = elt;

The "memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);" and "entry->val = elt;" stores may become visible in the reversed order on another CPU. This second CPU might then incorrectly determine that a new key doesn't match an already present val->key and subse ---truncated---
