From a687684df5eecb64385ade22daec19d005717a52 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Athira Rajeev Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2020 04:28:00 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/perf: Invoke per-CPU variable access with disabled interrupts commit f66de7ac4849eb42a7b18e26b8ee49e08130fd27 upstream. The power_pmu_event_init() callback access per-cpu variable (cpu_hw_events) to check for event constraints and Branch Stack (BHRB). Current usage is to disable preemption when accessing the per-cpu variable, but this does not prevent timer callback from interrupting event_init. Fix this by using 'local_irq_save/restore' to make sure the code path is invoked with disabled interrupts. This change is tested in mambo simulator to ensure that, if a timer interrupt comes in during the per-cpu access in event_init, it will be soft masked and replayed later. For testing purpose, introduced a udelay() in power_pmu_event_init() to make sure a timer interrupt arrives while in per-cpu variable access code between local_irq_save/resore. As expected the timer interrupt was replayed later during local_irq_restore called from power_pmu_event_init. This was confirmed by adding breakpoint in mambo and checking the backtrace when timer_interrupt was hit.
