[ Upstream commit 0b8d616fb5a8ffa307b1d3af37f55c15dae14f28 ] When assiging and testing taskstats in taskstats_exit() there's a race when setting up and reading sig->stats when a thread-group with more than one thread exits: write to 0xffff8881157bbe10 of 8 bytes by task 7951 on cpu 0: taskstats_tgid_alloc kernel/taskstats.c:567 [inline] taskstats_exit+0x6b7/0x717 kernel/taskstats.c:596 do_exit+0x2c2/0x18e0 kernel/exit.c:864 do_group_exit+0xb4/0x1c0 kernel/exit.c:983 get_signal+0x2a2/0x1320 kernel/signal.c:2734 do_signal+0x3b/0xc00 arch/x86/kernel/signal.c:815 exit_to_usermode_loop+0x250/0x2c0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:159 prepare_exit_to_usermode arch/x86/entry/common.c:194 [inline] syscall_return_slowpath arch/x86/entry/common.c:274 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x2d7/0x2f0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:299 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 read to 0xffff8881157bbe10 of 8 bytes by task 7949 on cpu 1: taskstats_tgid_alloc kernel/taskstats.c:559 [inline] taskstats_exit+0xb2/0x717 kernel/taskstats.c:596 do_exit+0x2c2/0x18e0 kernel/exit.c:864 do_group_exit+0xb4/0x1c0 kernel/exit.c:983 __do_sys_exit_group kernel/exit.c:994 [inline] __se_sys_exit_group kernel/exit.c:992 [inline] __x64_sys_exit_group+0x2e/0x30 kernel/exit.c:992 do_syscall_64+0xcf/0x2f0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:296 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 Fix this by using smp_load_acquire() and smp_store_release().

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.
