bpf, trace: use READ_ONCE for retrieving file ptr
In bpf_perf_event_read() and bpf_perf_event_output(), we must use READ_ONCE() for fetching the struct file pointer, which could get updated concurrently, so we must prevent the compiler from potential refetching. We already do this with tail calls for fetching the related bpf_prog, but not so on stored perf events. Semantics for both are the same with regards to updates. Fixes: a43eec304259 ("bpf: introduce bpf_perf_event_output() helper") Fixes: 35578d798400 ("bpf: Implement function bpf_perf_event_read() that get the selected hardware PMU conuter") Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
