[ Upstream commit d685d55dfc86b1a4bdcec77c3c1f8a83f181264e ]
Make sure the trace_kprobe's module notifer callback function is called
after jump_label's callback is called. Since the trace_kprobe's callback
eventually checks jump_label address during registering new kprobe on
the loading module, jump_label must be updated before this registration
happens.

commit 65a25d9f7ac02e0cf361356e834d1c71d36acca9 upstream.
The test_event_printk() code makes sure that when a trace event is
registered, any dereferenced pointers in from the event's TP_printk() are
pointing to content in the ring buffer. But currently it does not handle
"%s", as there's cases where the string pointer saved in the ring buffer
points to a static string in the kernel that will never be freed. As that
is a valid case, the pointer needs to be checked at runtime.
Currently the runtime check is done via trace_check_vprintf(), but to not
have to replicate everything in vsnprintf() it does some logic with the
va_list that may not be reliable across architectures. In order to get rid
of that logic, more work in the test_event_printk() needs to be done. Some
of the strings can be validated at this time when it is obvious the string
is valid because the string will be saved in the ring buffer content.
Do all the validation of strings in the ring buffer at boot in
test_event_printk(), and make sure that the field of the strings that
point into the kernel are accessible. This will allow adding checks at
runtime that will validate the fields themselves and not rely on paring
the TP_printk() format at runtime.

commit 917110481f6bc1c96b1e54b62bb114137fbc6d17 upstream.
The process_pointer() helper function looks to see if various trace event
macros are used. These macros are for storing data in the event. This
makes it safe to dereference as the dereference will then point into the
event on the ring buffer where the content of the data stays with the
event itself.
A few helper functions were missing. Those were:
__get_rel_dynamic_array()
__get_dynamic_array_len()
__get_rel_dynamic_array_len()
__get_rel_sockaddr()
Also add a helper function find_print_string() to not need to use a middle
man variable to test if the string exists.

commit a6629626c584200daf495cc9a740048b455addcd upstream.
The test_event_printk() analyzes print formats of trace events looking for
cases where it may dereference a pointer that is not in the ring buffer
which can possibly be a bug when the trace event is read from the ring
buffer and the content of that pointer no longer exists.
The function needs to accurately go from one print format argument to the
next. It handles quotes and parenthesis that may be included in an
argument. When it finds the start of the next argument, it uses a simple
"c = strstr(fmt + i, ',')" to find the end of that argument!
In order to include "%s" dereferencing, it needs to process the entire
content of the print format argument and not just the content of the first
',' it finds. As there may be content like:
({ const char *saved_ptr = trace_seq_buffer_ptr(p); static const char
*access_str[] = { "---", "--x", "w--", "w-x", "-u-", "-ux", "wu-", "wux"
}; union kvm_mmu_page_role role; role.word = REC->role;
trace_seq_printf(p, "sp gen %u gfn %llx l%u %u-byte q%u%s %s%s" " %snxe
%sad root %u %s%c", REC->mmu_valid_gen, REC->gfn, role.level,
role.has_4_byte_gpte ? 4 : 8, role.quadrant, role.direct ? " direct" : "",
access_str[role.access], role.invalid ? " invalid" : "", role.efer_nx ? ""
: "!", role.ad_disabled ? "!" : "", REC->root_count, REC->unsync ?
"unsync" : "sync", 0); saved_ptr; })
Which is an example of a full argument of an existing event. As the code
already handles finding the next print format argument, process the
argument at the end of it and not the start of it. This way it has both
the start of the argument as well as the end of it.
Add a helper function "process_pointer()" that will do the processing during
the loop as well as at the end. It also makes the code cleaner and easier
to read.

Range propagation must not affect subreg_def marks, otherwise the
following example is rewritten by verifier incorrectly when
BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32 flag is set:
0: call bpf_ktime_get_ns call bpf_ktime_get_ns
1: r0 &= 0x7fffffff after verifier r0 &= 0x7fffffff
2: w1 = w0 rewrites w1 = w0
3: if w0 < 10 goto +0 --------------> r11 = 0x2f5674a6 (r)
4: r1 >>= 32 r11 <<= 32 (r)
5: r0 = r1 r1 |= r11 (r)
6: exit; if w0 < 0xa goto pc+0
r1 >>= 32
r0 = r1
exit
(or zero extension of w1 at (2) is missing for architectures that
require zero extension for upper register half).
The following happens w/o this patch:
- r0 is marked as not a subreg at (0);
- w1 is marked as subreg at (2);
- w1 subreg_def is overridden at (3) by copy_register_state();
- w1 is read at (5) but mark_insn_zext() does not mark (2)
for zero extension, because w1 subreg_def is not set;
- because of BPF_F_TEST_RND_HI32 flag verifier inserts random
value for hi32 bits of (2) (marked (r));
- this random value is read at (5).

commit 978c4486cca5c7b9253d3ab98a88c8e769cb9bbd upstream.
Syzbot reported [1] crash that happens for following tracing scenario:
- create tracepoint perf event with attr.inherit=1, attach it to the
process and set bpf program to it
- attached process forks -> chid creates inherited event
the new child event shares the parent's bpf program and tp_event
(hence prog_array) which is global for tracepoint
- exit both process and its child -> release both events
- first perf_event_detach_bpf_prog call will release tp_event->prog_array
and second perf_event_detach_bpf_prog will crash, because
tp_event->prog_array is NULL
The fix makes sure the perf_event_detach_bpf_prog checks prog_array
is valid before it tries to remove the bpf program from it.

commit 7d0d673627e20cfa3b21a829a896ce03b58a4f1c upstream.
Currently, the pointer stored in call->prog_array is loaded in
__uprobe_perf_func(), with no RCU annotation and no immediately visible
RCU protection, so it looks as if the loaded pointer can immediately be
dangling.
Later, bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe() starts a RCU-trace read-side critical
section, but this is too late. It then uses rcu_dereference_check(), but
this use of rcu_dereference_check() does not actually dereference anything.
Fix it by aligning the semantics to bpf_prog_run_array(): Let the caller
provide rcu_read_lock_trace() protection and then load call->prog_array
with rcu_dereference_check().
This issue seems to be theoretical: I don't know of any way to reach this
code without having handle_swbp() further up the stack, which is already
holding a rcu_read_lock_trace() lock, so where we take
rcu_read_lock_trace() in __uprobe_perf_func()/bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe()
doesn't actually have any effect.

commit 659b9ba7cb2d7adb64618b87ddfaa528a143766e upstream.
Robert Morris reported the following program type which passes the
verifier in [0]:
SEC("struct_ops/bpf_cubic_init")
void BPF_PROG(bpf_cubic_init, struct sock *sk)
{
asm volatile("r2 = *(u16*)(r1 + 0)"); // verifier should demand u64
asm volatile("*(u32 *)(r2 +1504) = 0"); // 1280 in some configs
}
The second line may or may not work, but the first instruction shouldn't
pass, as it's a narrow load into the context structure of the struct ops
callback. The code falls back to btf_ctx_access to ensure correctness
and obtaining the types of pointers. Ensure that the size of the access
is correctly checked to be 8 bytes, otherwise the verifier thinks the
narrow load obtained a trusted BTF pointer and will permit loads/stores
as it sees fit.
Perform the check on size after we've verified that the load is for a
pointer field, as for scalar values narrow loads are fine. Access to
structs passed as arguments to a BPF program are also treated as
scalars, therefore no adjustment is needed in their case.
Existing verifier selftests are broken by this change, but because they
were incorrect. Verifier tests for d_path were performing narrow load
into context to obtain path pointer, had this program actually run it
would cause a crash. The same holds for verifier_btf_ctx_access tests.

Uprobes always use bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe() under tasks-trace-RCU
protection. But it is possible to attach a non-sleepable BPF program to a
uprobe, and non-sleepable BPF programs are freed via normal RCU (see
__bpf_prog_put_noref()). This leads to UAF of the bpf_prog because a normal
RCU grace period does not imply a tasks-trace-RCU grace period.
Fix it by explicitly waiting for a tasks-trace-RCU grace period after
removing the attachment of a bpf_prog to a perf_event.

Scheduler raises a SCHED_SOFTIRQ to trigger a load balancing event on
from the IPI handler on the idle CPU. If the SMP function is invoked
from an idle CPU via flush_smp_call_function_queue() then the HARD-IRQ
flag is not set and raise_softirq_irqoff() needlessly wakes ksoftirqd
because soft interrupts are handled before ksoftirqd get on the CPU.
Adding a trace_printk() in nohz_csd_func() at the spot of raising
SCHED_SOFTIRQ and enabling trace events for sched_switch, sched_wakeup,
and softirq_entry (for SCHED_SOFTIRQ vector alone) helps observing the
current behavior:
<idle>-0 [000] dN.1.: nohz_csd_func: Raising SCHED_SOFTIRQ from nohz_csd_func
<idle>-0 [000] dN.4.: sched_wakeup: comm=ksoftirqd/0 pid=16 prio=120 target_cpu=000
<idle>-0 [000] .Ns1.: softirq_entry: vec=7 [action=SCHED]
<idle>-0 [000] .Ns1.: softirq_exit: vec=7 [action=SCHED]
<idle>-0 [000] d..2.: sched_switch: prev_comm=swapper/0 prev_pid=0 prev_prio=120 prev_state=R ==> next_comm=ksoftirqd/0 next_pid=16 next_prio=120
ksoftirqd/0-16 [000] d..2.: sched_switch: prev_comm=ksoftirqd/0 prev_pid=16 prev_prio=120 prev_state=S ==> next_comm=swapper/0 next_pid=0 next_prio=120
...
Use __raise_softirq_irqoff() to raise the softirq. The SMP function call
is always invoked on the requested CPU in an interrupt handler. It is
guaranteed that soft interrupts are handled at the end.
Following are the observations with the changes when enabling the same
set of events:
<idle>-0 [000] dN.1.: nohz_csd_func: Raising SCHED_SOFTIRQ for nohz_idle_balance
<idle>-0 [000] dN.1.: softirq_raise: vec=7 [action=SCHED]
<idle>-0 [000] .Ns1.: softirq_entry: vec=7 [action=SCHED]
No unnecessary ksoftirqd wakeups are seen from idle task's context to
service the softirq.

Commit b2a02fc43a ("smp: Optimize send_call_function_single_ipi()")
optimizes IPIs to idle CPUs in TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG mode by setting the
TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag in idle task's thread info and relying on
flush_smp_call_function_queue() in idle exit path to run the
call-function. A softirq raised by the call-function is handled shortly
after in do_softirq_post_smp_call_flush() but the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag
remains set and is only cleared later when schedule_idle() calls
__schedule().
need_resched() check in _nohz_idle_balance() exists to bail out of load
balancing if another task has woken up on the CPU currently in-charge of
idle load balancing which is being processed in SCHED_SOFTIRQ context.
Since the optimization mentioned above overloads the interpretation of
TIF_NEED_RESCHED, check for idle_cpu() before going with the existing
need_resched() check which can catch a genuine task wakeup on an idle
CPU processing SCHED_SOFTIRQ from do_softirq_post_smp_call_flush(), as
well as the case where ksoftirqd needs to be preempted as a result of
new task wakeup or slice expiry.
In case of PREEMPT_RT or threadirqs, although the idle load balancing
may be inhibited in some cases on the ilb CPU, the fact that ksoftirqd
is the only fair task going back to sleep will trigger a newidle balance
on the CPU which will alleviate some imbalance if it exists if idle
balance fails to do so.

[ Upstream commit ea9cffc0a154124821531991d5afdd7e8b20d7aa ]
The need_resched() check currently in nohz_csd_func() can be tracked
to have been added in scheduler_ipi() back in 2011 via commit
ca38062e57 ("sched: Use resched IPI to kick off the nohz idle balance")
Since then, it has travelled quite a bit but it seems like an idle_cpu()
check currently is sufficient to detect the need to bail out from an
idle load balancing. To justify this removal, consider all the following
case where an idle load balancing could race with a task wakeup:
o Since commit f3dd3f6745 ("sched: Remove the limitation of WF_ON_CPU
on wakelist if wakee cpu is idle") a target perceived to be idle
(target_rq->nr_running == 0) will return true for
ttwu_queue_cond(target) which will offload the task wakeup to the idle
target via an IPI.
In all such cases target_rq->ttwu_pending will be set to 1 before
queuing the wake function.
If an idle load balance races here, following scenarios are possible:
- The CPU is not in TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG mode in which case an actual
IPI is sent to the CPU to wake it out of idle. If the
nohz_csd_func() queues before sched_ttwu_pending(), the idle load
balance will bail out since idle_cpu(target) returns 0 since
target_rq->ttwu_pending is 1. If the nohz_csd_func() is queued after
sched_ttwu_pending() it should see rq->nr_running to be non-zero and
bail out of idle load balancing.
- The CPU is in TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG mode and instead of an actual IPI,
the sender will simply set TIF_NEED_RESCHED for the target to put it
out of idle and flush_smp_call_function_queue() in do_idle() will
execute the call function. Depending on the ordering of the queuing
of nohz_csd_func() and sched_ttwu_pending(), the idle_cpu() check in
nohz_csd_func() should either see target_rq->ttwu_pending = 1 or
target_rq->nr_running to be non-zero if there is a genuine task
wakeup racing with the idle load balance kick.
o The waker CPU perceives the target CPU to be busy
(targer_rq->nr_running != 0) but the CPU is in fact going idle and due
to a series of unfortunate events, the system reaches a case where the
waker CPU decides to perform the wakeup by itself in ttwu_queue() on
the target CPU but target is concurrently selected for idle load
balance (XXX: Can this happen? I'm not sure, but we'll consider the
mother of all coincidences to estimate the worst case scenario).
ttwu_do_activate() calls enqueue_task() which would increment
"rq->nr_running" post which it calls wakeup_preempt() which is
responsible for setting TIF_NEED_RESCHED (via a resched IPI or by
setting TIF_NEED_RESCHED on a TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG idle CPU) The key
thing to note in this case is that rq->nr_running is already non-zero
in case of a wakeup before TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set which would
lead to idle_cpu() check returning false.
In all cases, it seems that need_resched() check is unnecessary when
checking for idle_cpu() first since an impending wakeup racing with idle
load balancer will either set the "rq->ttwu_pending" or indicate a newly
woken task via "rq->nr_running".
Chasing the reason why this check might have existed in the first place,
I came across Peter's suggestion on the fist iteration of Suresh's
patch from 2011 [1] where the condition to raise the SCHED_SOFTIRQ was:
sched_ttwu_do_pending(list);
if (unlikely((rq->idle == current) &&
rq->nohz_balance_kick &&
!need_resched()))
raise_softirq_irqoff(SCHED_SOFTIRQ);
Since the condition to raise the SCHED_SOFIRQ was preceded by
sched_ttwu_do_pending() (which is equivalent of sched_ttwu_pending()) in
the current upstream kernel, the need_resched() check was necessary to
catch a newly queued task. Peter suggested modifying it to:
if (idle_cpu() && rq->nohz_balance_kick && !need_resched())
raise_softirq_irqoff(SCHED_SOFTIRQ);
where idle_cpu() seems to have replaced "rq->idle == current" check.
Even back then, the idle_cpu() check would have been sufficient to catch
a new task being enqueued. Since commit b2a02fc43a ("smp: Optimize
send_call_function_single_ipi()") overloads the interpretation of
TIF_NEED_RESCHED for TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG idling, remove the
need_resched() check in nohz_csd_func() to raise SCHED_SOFTIRQ based
on Peter's suggestion.

[ Upstream commit 5f1b64e9a9b7ee9cfd32c6b2fab796e29bfed075 ]
[Problem Description]
When running the hackbench program of LTP, the following memory leak is
reported by kmemleak.

This issue can be consistently reproduced on three different servers:
* a 448-core server
* a 256-core server
* a 192-core server
[Root Cause]
Since multiple threads are created by the hackbench program (along with
the command argument 'thread'), a shared vma might be accessed by two or
more cores simultaneously. When two or more cores observe that
vma->numab_state is NULL at the same time, vma->numab_state will be
overwritten.
Although current code ensures that only one thread scans the VMAs in a
single 'numa_scan_period', there might be a chance for another thread
to enter in the next 'numa_scan_period' while we have not gotten till
numab_state allocation [1].
Note that the command `/opt/ltp/testcases/bin/hackbench 50 process 1000`
cannot the reproduce the issue. It is verified with 200+ test runs.
[Solution]
Use the cmpxchg atomic operation to ensure that only one thread executes
the vma->numab_state assignment.
