syscall.h: introduce syscall_set_nr()

2025-05-12T00:48:15+00:00

Similar to syscall_set_arguments() that complements syscall_get_arguments(), introduce syscall_set_nr() that complements syscall_get_nr(). syscall_set_nr() is going to be needed along with syscall_set_arguments() on all HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK architectures to implement PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API.

syscall.h: add syscall_set_arguments()

2025-05-12T00:48:15+00:00

This function is going to be needed on all HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK architectures to implement PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API. This partially reverts commit 7962c2eddbfe ("arch: remove unused function syscall_set_arguments()") by reusing some of old syscall_set_arguments() implementations.

MIPS: fix mips_get_syscall_arg() for o32

2025-02-13T11:41:29+00:00

This makes ptrace/get_syscall_info selftest pass on mips o32 and mips64 o32 by fixing the following two test assertions: 1. get_syscall_info test assertion on mips o32: # get_syscall_info.c:218:get_syscall_info:Expected exp_args[5] (3134521044) == info.entry.args[4] (4911432) # get_syscall_info.c:219:get_syscall_info:wait #1: entry stop mismatch 2. get_syscall_info test assertion on mips64 o32: # get_syscall_info.c:209:get_syscall_info:Expected exp_args[2] (3134324433) == info.entry.args[1] (18446744072548908753) # get_syscall_info.c:210:get_syscall_info:wait #1: entry stop mismatch The first assertion happens due to mips_get_syscall_arg() trying to access another task's context but failing to do it properly because get_user() it calls just peeks at the current task's context. It usually does not crash because the default user stack always gets assigned the same VMA, but it is pure luck which mips_get_syscall_arg() wouldn't have if e.g. the stack was switched (via setcontext(3) or however) or a non-default process's thread peeked at, and in any case irrelevant data is obtained just as observed with the test case. mips_get_syscall_arg() ought to be using access_remote_vm() instead to retrieve the other task's stack contents, but given that the data has been already obtained and saved in `struct pt_regs' it would be an overkill. The first assertion is fixed for mips o32 by using struct pt_regs.args instead of get_user() to obtain syscall arguments. This approach works due to this piece in arch/mips/kernel/scall32-o32.S: /* * Ok, copy the args from the luser stack to the kernel stack. */ .set push .set noreorder .set nomacro load_a4: user_lw(t5, 16(t0)) # argument #5 from usp load_a5: user_lw(t6, 20(t0)) # argument #6 from usp load_a6: user_lw(t7, 24(t0)) # argument #7 from usp load_a7: user_lw(t8, 28(t0)) # argument #8 from usp loads_done: sw t5, PT_ARG4(sp) # argument #5 to ksp sw t6, PT_ARG5(sp) # argument #6 to ksp sw t7, PT_ARG6(sp) # argument #7 to ksp sw t8, PT_ARG7(sp) # argument #8 to ksp .set pop .section __ex_table,"a" PTR_WD load_a4, bad_stack_a4 PTR_WD load_a5, bad_stack_a5 PTR_WD load_a6, bad_stack_a6 PTR_WD load_a7, bad_stack_a7 .previous arch/mips/kernel/scall64-o32.S has analogous code for mips64 o32 that allows fixing the issue by obtaining syscall arguments from struct pt_regs.regs[4..11] instead of the erroneous use of get_user(). The second assertion is fixed by truncating 64-bit values to 32-bit syscall arguments. Fixes: c0ff3c53d4f9 ("MIPS: Enable HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK.") Signed-off-by: Dmitry V.

mips: fix syscall_get_nr

2023-02-19T08:28:30+00:00

The implementation of syscall_get_nr on mips used to ignore the task argument and return the syscall number of the calling thread instead of the target thread. The bug was exposed to user space by commit 201766a20e30f ("ptrace: add PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request") and detected by strace test suite.

MIPS/ptrace: Update mips_get_syscall_arg's return type

2019-08-12T04:44:30+00:00

clang warns: arch/mips/include/asm/syscall.h:136:3: error: variable 'ret' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized] ret |= mips_get_syscall_arg(args++, task, regs, i++); ^~~ arch/mips/include/asm/syscall.h:129:9: note: initialize the variable 'ret' to silence this warning int ret; ^ = 0 1 error generated. It's not wrong; however, it's not an issue in practice because ret is only assigned to, not read from. ret could just be initialized to zero but looking into it further, ret has been unused since it was first added in 2012 so just get rid of it and update mips_get_syscall_arg's return type since none of the return values are ever checked. If it is ever needed again, this commit can be reverted and ret can be properly initialized. Fixes: c0ff3c53d4f9 ("MIPS: Enable HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK.")

syscalls: Remove start and number from syscall_get_arguments() args

2019-04-05T13:26:43+00:00

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only 0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6 arguments of a system call. This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace, ftrace and perf.

syscall_get_arch: add "struct task_struct *" argument

2019-03-21T01:12:36+00:00

This argument is required to extend the generic ptrace API with PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO request: syscall_get_arch() is going to be called from ptrace_request() along with syscall_get_nr(), syscall_get_arguments(), syscall_get_error(), and syscall_get_return_value() functions with a tracee as their argument. The primary intent is that the triple (audit_arch, syscall_nr, arg1..arg6) should describe what system call is being called and what its arguments are.
