When tracing and networking programs are both attached in the system and both use event-output helpers that eventually call into perf_event_output(), then we could end up in a situation where the tracing attached program runs in user context while a cls_bpf program is triggered on that same CPU out of softirq context. Since both rely on the same per-cpu perf_sample_data, we could potentially corrupt it. This can only ever happen in a combination of the two types; all tracing programs use a bpf_prog_active counter to bail out in case a program is already running on that CPU out of a different context. XDP and cls_bpf programs by themselves don't have this issue as they run in the same context only. Therefore, split both perf_sample_data so they cannot be accessed from each other.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
