In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/pai: Handle multiple PMU stop callback invocations
Handle the following scenario:
The kernel protects itself against a very high sampling load and
throttles the sampling using:
perf_event_throttle() --> PMU->stop()
Shortly later the scheduler may terminate the task and removes it from the
CPU. It again calls
PMU->stop()
which results in two invocations of PMU->stop() called back to back.
Protect against this and check the PERF_HES_STOPPED bit on function
entry. If it is already set return.
Clear bit PERF_HES_STOPPED in PMU->start().
Prohibit ioctl(fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_PERIOD, ...) call for this event.
It sets perf_event::event_limit to a positive value and causes
perf_event_overflow() to invoke pai_stop() call back function when
perf_event::event_limit hits zero. This is not supported because the
sample events CRYPTO_ALL and NNPA_ALL are only taken at schedule out
of a task.
Use list_for_each_entry_safe() for safe iteration over syswide_list
in pai_have_samples().
