Subject: [PATCH 0/3] rcu-tasks: Fix race against exiting pid_ns
Date: Fri, 25 Nov 2022 14:54:57 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221125135500.1653800-1-frederic@kernel.org> (raw)
Pengfei Xu has reported a deadlock involving calls to unshare(),
perf_event_open() and clone3() calls. It requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN
to reproduce (at least I don't see a way for a non privilege process to
reproduce).
See this thread for details: https://lore.kernel.org/all/Y3sOgrOmMQqPMItu@xpf.sh.intel.com/
And this document for the collaborative analysis with Boqun, Paul and Neeraj:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hJxgiZ5TMZ4YJkdJPLAkRvq7sYQ-A7svgA8no6i-v8k
The two first patches are small improvements. The fix is in the last patch.
