Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "The biggest change for this release is in the histogram code: - Add "onchange(var)" histogram handler that executes a action when $var changes. - Add new "snapshot()" action for histogram handlers, that causes a snapshot of the ring buffer when triggered. ie. onchange(var).snapshot() will trigger a snapshot if var changes. - Add alternative for "trace()" action. Currently, to trigger a synthetic event, the name of that event is used as the handler name, which is inconsistent with the other actions. onchange(var).synthetic(param) where it can now be onchange(var).trace(synthetic, param). The older method will still be allowed, as long as the synthetic events do not overlap with other handler names. - The histogram documentation at testcases were updated for the new changes. Outside of the histogram code, we have: - Added a quicker way to enable set_ftrace_filter files, that will make it much quicker to bisect tracing a function that shouldn't be traced and crashes the kernel. (You can echo in numbers to set_ftrace_filter, and it will select the corresponding function that is in available_filter_functions). - Some better displaying of the tracing data (and more information was added). The rest are small fixes and more clean ups to the code" * tag 'trace-v5.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (37 commits) tracing: Use strncpy instead of memcpy when copying comm in trace.c tracing: Use strncpy instead of memcpy when copying comm for hist triggers tracing: Use strncpy instead of memcpy for string keys in hist triggers tracing: Use str_has_prefix() in synth_event_create() x86/ftrace: Fix warning and considate ftrace_jmp_replace() and ftrace_call_replace() tracing/perf: Use strndup_user() instead of buggy open-coded version doc: trace: Fix documentation for uprobe_profile tracing: Fix spelling mistake: "analagous" -> "analogous" tracing: Comment why cond_snapshot is checked outside of max_lock protection tracing: Add hist trigger action 'expected fail' test case tracing: Add alternative synthetic event trace action test case tracing: Add hist trigger onchange() handler test case tracing: Add hist trigger snapshot() action test case tracing: Add SPDX license GPL-2.0 license identifier to inter-event testcases tracing: Add alternative synthetic event trace action syntax tracing: Add hist trigger onchange() handler Documentation tracing: Add hist trigger onchange() handler tracing: Add hist trigger snapshot() action Documentation tracing: Add hist trigger snapshot() action tracing: Add conditional snapshot ...

uprobes: convert uprobe.ref to refcount_t

2019-02-15T18:10:14+00:00

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable uprobe.ref is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. **Important note for maintainers: Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic counterparts. The full comparison can be seen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon in state to be merged to the documentation tree. Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in some rare cases it might matter. Please double check that you don't have some undocumented memory guarantees for this variable usage. For the uprobe.ref it might make a difference in following places: - put_uprobe(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1547637627-29526-1-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.com Suggested-by: Kees Cook Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov Reviewed-by: David Windsor Reviewed-by: Hans Liljestrand Reviewed-by: Srikar Dronamraju Signed-off-by: Elena Reshetova Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware)

Uprobes: Fix kernel oops with delayed_uprobe_remove()

2018-12-06T04:05:13+00:00

There could be a race between task exit and probe unregister: exit_mm() mmput() __mmput() uprobe_unregister() uprobe_clear_state() put_uprobe() delayed_uprobe_remove() delayed_uprobe_remove() put_uprobe() is calling delayed_uprobe_remove() without taking delayed_uprobe_lock and thus the race sometimes results in a kernel crash. Fix this by taking delayed_uprobe_lock before calling delayed_uprobe_remove() from put_uprobe().

uprobes: Fix handle_swbp() vs. unregister() + register() race once more

2018-11-23T07:31:19+00:00

Commit: 142b18ddc8143 ("uprobes: Fix handle_swbp() vs unregister() + register() race") added the UPROBE_COPY_INSN flag, and corresponding smp_wmb() and smp_rmb() memory barriers, to ensure that handle_swbp() uses fully-initialized uprobes only. However, the smp_rmb() is mis-placed: this barrier should be placed after handle_swbp() has tested for the flag, thus guaranteeing that (program-order) subsequent loads from the uprobe can see the initial stores performed by prepare_uprobe(). Move the smp_rmb() accordingly. Also amend the comments associated to the two memory barriers to indicate their actual locations.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "The biggest change here is the updates to kprobes Back in January I posted patches to create function based events. These were the events that you suggested I make to allow developers to easily create events in code where no trace event exists. After posting those changes for review, it was suggested that we implement this instead with kprobes. The problem with kprobes is that the interface is too complex and needs to be simplified. Masami Hiramatsu posted patches in March and I've been playing with them a bit. There's been a bit of clean up in the kprobe code that was inspired by the function based event patches, and a couple of enhancements to the kprobe event interface. - If the arch supports it (we added support for x86), you can place a kprobe event at the start of a function and use $arg1, $arg2, etc to reference the arguments of a function. (Before you needed to know what register or where on the stack the argument was). - The second is a way to see array of events. For example, if you reference a mac address, you can add: echo 'p:mac ip_rcv perm_addr=+574($arg2):x8[6]' > kprobe_events And this will produce: mac: (ip_rcv+0x0/0x140) perm_addr={0x52,0x54,0x0,0xc0,0x76,0xec} Other changes include - Exporting trace_dump_stack to modules - Have the stack tracer trace the entire stack (stop trying to remove tracing itself, as we keep removing too much). - Added support for SDT in uprobes" [ SDT - "Statically Defined Tracing" are userspace markers for tracing.

uprobes: Support SDT markers having reference count (semaphore)

2018-09-24T08:44:53+00:00

Userspace Statically Defined Tracepoints[1] are dtrace style markers inside userspace applications. Applications like PostgreSQL, MySQL, Pthread, Perl, Python, Java, Ruby, Node.js, libvirt, QEMU, glib etc have these markers embedded in them. These markers are added by developer at important places in the code. Each marker source expands to a single nop instruction in the compiled code but there may be additional overhead for computing the marker arguments which expands to couple of instructions. In case the overhead is more, execution of it can be omitted by runtime if() condition when no one is tracing on the marker: if (reference_counter > 0) { Execute marker instructions; } Default value of reference counter is 0. Tracer has to increment the reference counter before tracing on a marker and decrement it when done with the tracing. Implement the reference counter logic in core uprobe. User will be able to use it from trace_uprobe as well as from kernel module. New trace_uprobe definition with reference counter will now be: :[(ref_ctr_offset)] where ref_ctr_offset is an optional field. For kernel module, new variant of uprobe_register() has been introduced: uprobe_register_refctr(inode, offset, ref_ctr_offset, consumer) No new variant for uprobe_unregister() because it's assumed to have only one reference counter for one uprobe. [1] https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/UserSpaceProbeImplementation Note: 'reference counter' is called as 'semaphore' in original Dtrace (or Systemtap, bcc and even in ELF) documentation and code. But the term 'semaphore' is misleading in this context. This is just a counter used to hold number of tracers tracing on a marker. This is not really used for any synchronization. So we are calling it a 'reference counter' in kernel / perf code.
