perf/core: Fix perf_mmap fail when CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC enabled
mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.18-rc4 commit 60490e79 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8KFB3 CVE: NA Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=60490e7966659b26d74bf1fa4aa8693d9a94ca88 -------------------------------- This problem can be reproduced with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC enabled on both x86_64 and aarch64 arch when using sysdig -B(using ebpf)[1]. sysdig -B works fine after rebuilding the kernel with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC disabled. I tracked it down to the if condition event->rb->nr_pages != nr_pages in perf_mmap is true when CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC is enabled where event->rb->nr_pages = 1 and nr_pages = 2048 resulting perf_mmap to return -EINVAL. This is because when CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC is enabled, rb->nr_pages is always equal to 1. Arch with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC enabled by default: arc/arm/csky/mips/sh/sparc/xtensa Arch with CONFIG_PERF_USE_VMALLOC disabled by default: x86_64/aarch64/... Fix this problem by using data_page_nr() [1] https://github.com/draios/sysdig Fixes: 906010b2 ("perf_event: Provide vmalloc() based mmap() backing") Signed-off-by:Zhipeng Xie <xiezhipeng1@huawei.com> Signed-off-by:
