Subject: [for-next][PATCH 33/34] uprobes: Use synchronize_rcu() not synchronize_sched()
Date: Sat, 11 Aug 2018 09:50:01 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180811135017.502196505@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20180811134928.034373761@goodmis.org
From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>
While debugging another bug, I was looking at all the synchronize*()
functions being used in kernel/trace, and noticed that trace_uprobes was
using synchronize_sched(), with a comment to synchronize with
{u,ret}_probe_trace_func(). When looking at those functions, the data is
protected with "rcu_read_lock()" and not with "rcu_read_lock_sched()". This
is using the wrong synchronize_*() function.
