PATCH 1/2 x86/events/amd/iommu: Fix sysfs type mismatch

dev_attr_show() calls _iommu_event_show() via an indirect call but _iommu_event_show()'s type does not currently match the type of the show() member in 'struct device_attribute', resulting in a Control Flow Integrity violation.

$ cat /sys/devices/amd_iommu_1/events/mem_dte_hit
csource=0x0a
$ dmesg | grep "CFI failure"
[ 3526.735140] CFI failure (target: _iommu_event_show...):

Change _iommu_event_show() and 'struct amd_iommu_event_desc' to 'struct device_attribute' so that there is no more CFI violation.

Fixes 7be6296fdd75 ("perf/x86/amd: AMD IOMMU Performance Counter PERF uncore PMU implementation")

PATCH 2/2 perf/amd/uncore: Fix sysfs type mismatch

dev_attr_show() calls the __uncore_*_show() functions via an indirect call but their type does not currently match the type of the show() member in 'struct device_attribute', resulting in a Control Flow Integrity violation.

$ cat /sys/devices/amd_l3/format/umask

$ dmesg | grep "CFI failure"

dev_attr_show() calls _iommu_event_show() via an indirect call but _iommu_event_show()'s type does not currently match the type of the show() member in 'struct device_attribute', resulting in a Control Flow Integrity violation.

While the fix looks fine I think we need to solve this kind of problem by better type checking. The fact that we can use the wong type here without a compiler warning is the real issue.

I agree. Unfortunately, it seems that is going to be a much longer tail project because of how pervasive this is (using container_of() + attributes to get callbacks).
