76bfd3de34 Merge tag 'trace-v5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "The majority of the changes are for fixes and clean ups.

  Notable changes:

   - Rework trace event triggers code to be easier to interact with.

   - Support for embedding bootconfig with the kernel (as suppose to
     having it embedded in initram). This is useful for embedded boards
     without initram disks.

   - Speed up boot by parallelizing the creation of tracefs files.

   - Allow absolute ring buffer timestamps handle timestamps that use
     more than 59 bits.

   - Added new tracing clock "TAI" (International Atomic Time)

   - Have weak functions show up in available_filter_function list as:
     __ftrace_invalid_address___<invalid-offset> instead of using the
     name of the function before it"

4399404918 kprobes: Fix build errors with CONFIG_KRETPROBES=n
Max Filippov reported:

When building kernel with CONFIG_KRETPROBES=n kernel/kprobes.c
compilation fails with the following messages:

  kernel/kprobes.c: In function ‘recycle_rp_inst’:
  kernel/kprobes.c:1273:32: error: implicit declaration of function
                                   ‘get_kretprobe’

  kernel/kprobes.c: In function ‘kprobe_flush_task’:
  kernel/kprobes.c:1299:35: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member
                                   named ‘kretprobe_instances’

This came from the commit d741bf41d7 ("kprobes: Remove
kretprobe hash") which introduced get_kretprobe() and
kretprobe_instances member in task_struct when CONFIG_KRETPROBES=y,
but did not make recycle_rp_inst() and kprobe_flush_task()
depending on CONFIG_KRETPORBES.

Since those functions are only used for kretprobe, move those
functions into #ifdef CONFIG_KRETPROBE area.

1d661ed54d kprobes: Fix KRETPROBES when CONFIG_KRETPROBE_ON_RETHOOK is set
The recent kernel change in 73f9b911fa ("kprobes: Use rethook for kretprobe
if possible"), introduced a potential NULL pointer dereference bug in the
KRETPROBE mechanism. The official Kprobes documentation defines that "Any or
all handlers can be NULL". Unfortunately, there is a missing return handler
verification to fulfill these requirements and can result in a NULL pointer
dereference bug.

This patch adds such verification in kretprobe_rethook_handler() function.

73f9b911fa kprobes: Use rethook for kretprobe if possible
Use rethook for kretprobe function return hooking if the arch sets
CONFIG_HAVE_RETHOOK=y. In this case, CONFIG_KRETPROBE_ON_RETHOOK is
set to 'y' automatically, and the kretprobe internal data fields
switches to use rethook. If not, it continues to use kretprobe
specific function return hooks.

cc66bb9145 x86/ibt,kprobes: Cure sym+0 equals fentry woes
In order to allow kprobes to skip the ENDBR instructions at sym+0 for
X86_KERNEL_IBT builds, change _kprobe_addr() to take an architecture
callback to inspect the function at hand and modify the offset if
needed.

This streamlines the existing interface to cover more cases and
require less hooks. Once PowerPC gets fully converted there will only
be the one arch hook.

aebfd12521 x86/ibt,ftrace: Search for __fentry__ location
Currently a lot of ftrace code assumes __fentry__ is at sym+0. However
with Intel IBT enabled the first instruction of a function will most
likely be ENDBR.

Change ftrace_location() to not only return the __fentry__ location
when called for the __fentry__ location, but also when called for the
sym+0 location.

Then audit/update all callsites of this function to consistently use
these new semantics.

a737a3c674 kprobe: move sysctl_kprobes_optimization to kprobes.c
kernel/sysctl.c is a kitchen sink where everyone leaves their dirty
dishes, this makes it very difficult to maintain.

To help with this maintenance let's start by moving sysctls to places
where they actually belong.  The proc sysctl maintainers do not want to
know what sysctl knobs you wish to add for your own piece of code, we
just care about the core logic.

Move sysctl_kprobes_optimization from kernel/sysctl.c to
kernel/kprobes.c.  Use register_sysctl() to register the sysctl
interface.

6bbfa44116 kprobes: Limit max data_size of the kretprobe instances
The 'kprobe::data_size' is unsigned, thus it can not be negative.  But if
user sets it enough big number (e.g. (size_t)-8), the result of 'data_size
+ sizeof(struct kretprobe_instance)' becomes smaller than sizeof(struct
kretprobe_instance) or zero. In result, the kretprobe_instance are
allocated without enough memory, and kretprobe accesses outside of
allocated memory.

To avoid this issue, introduce a max limitation of the
kretprobe::data_size. 4KB per instance should be OK.

79ef0c0014 Merge tag 'trace-v5.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - kprobes: Restructured stack unwinder to show properly on x86 when a
   stack dump happens from a kretprobe callback.

 - Fix to bootconfig parsing

 - Have tracefs allow owner and group permissions by default (only
   denying others). There's been pressure to allow non root to tracefs
   in a controlled fashion, and using groups is probably the safest.

 - Bootconfig memory managament updates.

 - Bootconfig clean up to have the tools directory be less dependent on
   changes in the kernel tree.

 - Allow perf to be traced by function tracer.

 - Rewrite of function graph tracer to be a callback from the function
   tracer instead of having its own trampoline (this change will happen
   on an arch by arch basis, and currently only x86_64 implements it).

 - Allow multiple direct trampolines (bpf hooks to functions) be batched
   together in one synchronization.

 - Allow histogram triggers to add variables that can perform
   calculations against the event's fields.

 - Use the linker to determine architecture callbacks from the ftrace
   trampoline to allow for proper parameter prototypes and prevent
   warnings from the compiler.

 - Extend histogram triggers to key off of variables.

 - Have trace recursion use bit magic to determine preempt context over
   if branches.

 - Have trace recursion disable preemption as all use cases do anyway.

 - Added testing for verification of tracing utilities.

 - Various small clean ups and fixes.

e44e81c5b9 kprobes: convert tests to kunit
This converts the kprobes testcases to use the kunit framework.
It adds a dependency on CONFIG_KUNIT, and the output will change
to TAP:

TAP version 14
1..1
    # Subtest: kprobes_test
    1..4
random: crng init done
    ok 1 - test_kprobe
    ok 2 - test_kprobes
    ok 3 - test_kretprobe
    ok 4 - test_kretprobes
ok 1 - kprobes_test

Note that the kprobes testcases are no longer run immediately after
kprobes initialization, but as a late initcall when kunit is
initialized. kprobes itself is initialized with an early initcall,
so the order is still correct.

670721c7bd sched: Move kprobes cleanup out of finish_task_switch()
Doing cleanups in the tail of schedule() is a latency punishment for the
incoming task. The point of invoking kprobes_task_flush() for a dead task
is that the instances are returned and cannot leak when __schedule() is

bf094cffea x86/kprobes: Fixup return address in generic trampoline handler
In x86, the fake return address on the stack saved by
__kretprobe_trampoline() will be replaced with the real return
address after returning from trampoline_handler(). Before fixing
the return address, the real return address can be found in the
'current->kretprobe_instances'.

However, since there is a window between updating the
'current->kretprobe_instances' and fixing the address on the stack,
if an interrupt happens at that timing and the interrupt handler
does stacktrace, it may fail to unwind because it can not get
the correct return address from 'current->kretprobe_instances'.

This will eliminate that window by fixing the return address
right before updating 'current->kretprobe_instances'.

df91c5bccb kprobes: Enable stacktrace from pt_regs in kretprobe handler
Since the ORC unwinder from pt_regs requires setting up regs->ip
correctly, set the correct return address to the regs->ip before
calling user kretprobe handler.

This allows the kretrprobe handler to trace stack from the
kretprobe's pt_regs by stack_trace_save_regs() (eBPF will do
this), instead of stack tracing from the handler context by
stack_trace_save() (ftrace will do this).

The __kretprobe_trampoline_handler() callback, called from low level
arch kprobes methods, has the 'trampoline_address' parameter, which is
entirely superfluous as it basically just replicates:

  dereference_kernel_function_descriptor(kretprobe_trampoline)

In fact we had bugs in arch code where it wasn't replicated correctly.

So remove this superfluous parameter and use kretprobe_trampoline_addr()
instead.

Note that MAX_OPTIMIZED_LENGTH and RELATIVEJUMP_SIZE are defined

and replace the message with WARN_*() macros if suitable.

4402deae89 kprobes: Make arch_check_ftrace_location static
arch_check_ftrace_location() was introduced as a weak function in
commit f7f242ff00 ("kprobes: introduce weak
arch_check_ftrace_location() helper function") to allow architectures
to handle kprobes call site on their own.

Recently, the only architecture (csky) to implement
arch_check_ftrace_location() was migrated to using the common
version.

As a result, further cleanup the code to drop the weak attribute and
rename the function to remove the architecture specific
implementation.

02afb8d604 kprobe: Simplify prepare_kprobe() by dropping redundant version
The function prepare_kprobe() is called during kprobe registration and
is responsible for ensuring any architecture related preparation for
the kprobe is done before returning.

One of two versions of prepare_kprobe() is chosen depending on the
availability of KPROBE_ON_FTRACE in the kernel configuration.

Simplify the code by dropping the version when KPROBE_ON_FTRACE is not
selected - instead relying on kprobe_ftrace() to return false when

5d6de7d7fb kprobes: Use helper to parse boolean input from userspace
The "enabled" file provides a debugfs interface to arm / disarm
kprobes in the kernel. In order to parse the buffer containing the
values written from userspace, the callback manually parses the user
input to convert it to a boolean value.

As taking a string value from userspace and converting it to boolean
is a common operation, a helper kstrtobool_from_user() is already
available in the kernel. Update the callback to use the common helper
to parse the write buffer from userspace.

8f7262cd66 kprobes: Do not use local variable when creating debugfs file
debugfs_create_file() takes a pointer argument that can be used during
file operation callbacks (accessible via i_private in the inode
structure). An obvious requirement is for the pointer to refer to
valid memory when used.

When creating the debugfs file to dynamically enable / disable
kprobes, a pointer to local variable is passed to
debugfs_create_file(); which will go out of scope when the init
function returns. The reason this hasn't triggered random memory
corruption is because the pointer is not accessed during the debugfs
file callbacks.

Since the enabled state is managed by the kprobes_all_disabled global
variable, the local variable is not needed. Fix the incorrect (and
unnecessary) usage of local variable during debugfs_file_create() by
passing NULL instead.
