Ensure running fprobe_exit_handler() has finished before calling rethook_free() in the unregister_fprobe() so that caller can free the fprobe right after unregister_fprobe(). unregister_fprobe() ensured that all running fprobe_entry/exit_handler() have finished by calling unregister_ftrace_function() which synchronizes RCU. But commit5f81018753("fprobe: Release rethook after the ftrace_ops is unregistered") changed to call rethook_free() after unregister_ftrace_function(). So call rethook_stop() to make rethook disabled before unregister_ftrace_function() and ensure it again. Here is the possible code flow that can call the exit handler after unregister_fprobe(). ------ CPU1 CPU2 call unregister_fprobe(fp) ... __fprobe_handler() rethook_hook() on probed function unregister_ftrace_function() return from probed function rethook hooks find rh->handler == fprobe_exit_handler call fprobe_exit_handler() rethook_free(): set rh->handler = NULL; return from unreigster_fprobe; call fp->exit_handler() <- (*) ------ (*) At this point, the exit handler is called after returning from unregister_fprobe(). This fixes it as following; ------ CPU1 CPU2 call unregister_fprobe() ... rethook_stop(): set rh->handler = NULL; __fprobe_handler() rethook_hook() on probed function unregister_ftrace_function() return from probed function rethook hooks find rh->handler == NULL return from rethook rethook_free() return from unreigster_fprobe; ------ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/168873859949.156157.13039240432299335849.stgit@devnote2/ Fixes:5f81018753("fprobe: Release rethook after the ftrace_ops is unregistered") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.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.
