bpf: Disable preemption in perf_event_output helpers code
hi,
we got report of kernel crash [1][3] within bpf_event_output helper.
The reason is the nesting protection code in bpf_event_output that expects
disabled preemption, which is not guaranteed for programs executed by
bpf_prog_run_array_cg.
I managed to reproduce on tracing side where we have the same problem
in bpf_perf_event_output. The reproducer [2] just creates busy uprobe
and call bpf_perf_event_output helper a lot.
v3 changes:
- added acks and fixed 'Fixes' tag style [Hou Tao]
- added Closes tag to patch 2
v2 changes:
- I changed 'Fixes' commits to where I saw we switched from preempt_disable
to migrate_disable, but I'm not completely sure about the patch 2, because
it was tricky to find, would be nice if somebody could check on that
thanks,
jirka
