Alexei Starovoitov aa89592fcb Merge branch 'bpf-disable-preemption-in-perf_event_output-helpers-code'
Jiri Olsa says:

====================
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

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
