Max Makarov reported kernel panic [1] in perf user callchain code. The reason for that is the race between uprobe_free_utask and bpf profiler code doing the perf user stack unwind and is triggered within uprobe_free_utask function: - after current->utask is freed and - before current->utask is set to NULL general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x9e759c37ee555c76: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI RIP: 0010:is_uprobe_at_func_entry+0x28/0x80 ... ? die_addr+0x36/0x90 ? exc_general_protection+0x217/0x420 ? asm_exc_general_protection+0x26/0x30 ? is_uprobe_at_func_entry+0x28/0x80 perf_callchain_user+0x20a/0x360 get_perf_callchain+0x147/0x1d0 bpf_get_stackid+0x60/0x90 bpf_prog_9aac297fb833e2f5_do_perf_event+0x434/0x53b ? __smp_call_single_queue+0xad/0x120 bpf_overflow_handler+0x75/0x110 ... asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x1a/0x20 RIP: 0010:__kmem_cache_free+0x1cb/0x350 ... ? uprobe_free_utask+0x62/0x80 ? acct_collect+0x4c/0x220 uprobe_free_utask+0x62/0x80 mm_release+0x12/0xb0 do_exit+0x26b/0xaa0 __x64_sys_exit+0x1b/0x20 do_syscall_64+0x5a/0x80 It can be easily reproduced by running following commands in separate terminals: # while :; do bpftrace -e 'uprobe:/bin/ls:_start { printf("hit\n"); }' -c ls; done # bpftrace -e 'profile:hz:100000 { @[ustack()] = count(); }' Fixing this by making sure current->utask pointer is set to NULL before we start to release the utask object.
