I added a bunch of printk()s and I'm thinking there's a race in user event
(or dynamic event) code.
I put a printk in the open, write and release call to record the filp and
the file in the open and this is what I hit:
[ 32.603954] open ffff8d05488bf000 file=ffff8d0484f7a688
[ 32.607026] write ffff8d05488bf000
[ 32.608829] update file = ffff8d0484f7a688
[ 32.610100] update tr = ffffffffb2bebda0
[ 32.622203] write ffff8d05488bf000
[ 32.623231] update file = ffff8d0484f7a688
[ 32.624397] update tr = ffffffffb2bebda0
[ 32.625975] call delayed destroy
[ 32.627241] open ffff8d048510fc00 file=ffff8d0484f7a688
Another open with a different filp, but has the same file pointer (which is
the meta data that matches the eventfs files, but not part of eventfs).
[ 32.628720] release ffff8d048510fc00
Only one release is called and then we call:
[ 32.630785] Remove event call ffff8d04809d7c58
The above "Remove event call" came from user_event_set_call_visible()
if (visible) {
printk("show event call %px\n", &user->call);
ret = trace_add_event_call(&user->call);
} else {
printk("Remove event call %px\n", &user->call);
ret = trace_remove_event_call(&user->call);
}
Where trace_remove_event_call() calls:
probe_remove_event_call() {
__trace_remove_event_call() {
event_remove() {
remove_event_from_tracers() {
remove_event_file_dir() {
remove_event_file_dir() {
kmem_cache_free(file_cachep, file);
That is, call->file is freed at this point. Now any access to the file
pointer is going to be garbage, which a write to enable will cause.
So I see it is freed without seeing a release called.
[ 32.632323] Removing __test_event
The above is the dentry being released (unlinked).
[ 32.633618] Removing enable
[ 32.634453] Removing user_events
[ 32.634948] write ffff8d05488bf000
Another write is happening to the user event file (it may have been
unlinked, but the release was never called, so it is still valid.
[ 32.636440] update file = ffff8d0484f7a688
[ 32.637685] update tr = dc64cc323d943921
The above is the file pointer that we freed, and you can see the file->tr
is now garbage.

Note, I think I can simplify some of the code (but not fix this bug) by
letting the dput free the eventfs_inode as well (I think that is required).
But the above looks to be a bug in the implementation of user_events.
