[ Upstream commit f3408580bac8ce5cd76e7391e529c0a22e7c7eb2 ] I got a report for a failure in BPF verifier on a recent kernel with perf lock contention command. It checks task->sighand->siglock without checking if sighand is NULL or not. Let's add one. ; if (&curr->sighand->siglock == (void *)lock) 265: (79) r1 = *(u64 *)(r0 +2624) ; frame1: R0_w=trusted_ptr_task_struct(off=0,imm=0) ; R1_w=rcu_ptr_or_null_sighand_struct(off=0,imm=0) 266: (b7) r2 = 0 ; frame1: R2_w=0 267: (0f) r1 += r2 R1 pointer arithmetic on rcu_ptr_or_null_ prohibited, null-check it first processed 164 insns (limit 1000000) max_states_per_insn 1 total_states 15 peak_states 15 mark_read 5 -- END PROG LOAD LOG -- libbpf: prog 'contention_end': failed to load: -13 libbpf: failed to load object 'lock_contention_bpf' libbpf: failed to load BPF skeleton 'lock_contention_bpf': -13 Failed to load lock-contention BPF skeleton lock contention BPF setup failed lock contention did not detect any lock contention Fixes: 1811e82767dcc ("perf lock contention: Track and show siglock with address") Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Song Liu <song@kernel.org> Cc: bpf@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240409225542.1870999-1-namhyung@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
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.
