tracepoint: Fix out of sync data passing by static caller
Naresh reported a bug that appears to be a side effect of the static
calls. It happens when going from more than one tracepoint callback to
a single one, and removing the first callback on the list. The list of
tracepoint callbacks holds data and a function to call with the
parameters of that tracepoint and a handler to the associated data.
old_list:
0: func = foo; data = NULL;
1: func = bar; data = &bar_struct;
new_list:
0: func = bar; data = &bar_struct;
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
tp_funcs = old_list;
tp_static_caller = tp_interator
__DO_TRACE()
data = tp_funcs[0].data = NULL;
tp_funcs = new_list;
tracepoint_update_call()
tp_static_caller = tp_funcs[0] = bar;
tp_static_caller(data)
bar(data)
x = data->item = NULL->item
BOOM!
To solve this, add a tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() between
changing tp_funcs and updating the static tracepoint, that does both a
synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_srcu(). This will ensure that when
the static call is updated to the single callback that it will be
receiving the data that it registered with.
