commit 6c605f8371159432ec61cbb1488dcf7ad24ad19a upstream. KCSAN reports a data race between increment and decrement of pin_count: write to 0xffff888237c2d4e0 of 4 bytes by task 15740 on cpu 1: find_get_context kernel/events/core.c:4617 __do_sys_perf_event_open kernel/events/core.c:12097 [inline] __se_sys_perf_event_open kernel/events/core.c:11933 ... read to 0xffff888237c2d4e0 of 4 bytes by task 15743 on cpu 0: perf_unpin_context kernel/events/core.c:1525 [inline] __do_sys_perf_event_open kernel/events/core.c:12328 [inline] __se_sys_perf_event_open kernel/events/core.c:11933 ... Because neither read-modify-write here is atomic, this can lead to one of the operations being lost, resulting in an inconsistent pin_count. Fix it by adding the missing locking in the CPU-event case.

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.
