We reject probing of load/store exclusive instructions because any emulation routine could never succeed in gaining exclusive access as the exception framework clears the exclusivity monitor when a probes breakpoint is hit.

This patch improves the performance of LDM and STM instruction emulation. This is desirable because. - jprobes and kretprobes probe the first instruction in a function and, when the frame pointer is omitted, this instruction is often a STM used to push registers onto the stack. - The STM and LDM instructions are common in the body and tail of functions. - At the same time as being a common instruction form, they also have one of the slowest and most complicated simulation routines. The approach taken to optimisation is to use emulation rather than simulation, that is, a modified form of the instruction is run with an appropriate register context. Benchmarking on an OMAP3530 shows the optimised emulation is between 2 and 3 times faster than the simulation routines. On a Kirkwood based device the relative performance was very significantly better than this. Signed-off-by: NJon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Acked-by: NNicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

The encoding of these instructions is substantially the same for both ARM and Thumb, so we can have common decoding and simulation functions. This patch moves the simulation functions from kprobes-arm.c to kprobes-common.c. It also adds a new simulation function (simulate_ldm1_pc) for the case where we load into PC because this may need to interwork. The instruction decoding is done by a custom function (kprobe_decode_ldmstm) rather than just relying on decoding table entries because we will later be adding optimisation code.

This writes a value to PC which was obtained as the result of a LDR or LDM instruction. For ARMv5T and later this must perform interworking. Signed-off-by: NJon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Acked-by: NNicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

For hints which may have observable effects, like SEV (send event), we use kprobe_emulate_none which emulates the hint by executing the original instruction. For NOP we simulate the instruction using kprobe_simulate_nop, which does nothing. As probes execute with interrupts disabled this is also used for hints which may block for an indefinite time, like WFE (wait for event).

These are very rare and/or problematic to emulate so we will take the easy option and disallow probing them (as does the existing ARM implementation). Rejecting these instructions doesn't actually require any entries in the decoding table as it is the default case for instructions which aren't found.

We previously changed the behaviour of probes so that conditional instructions don't fire when the condition isn't met. For ARM branches, and Thumb branches in IT blocks, this means they don't fire if the branch isn't taken. For consistency, we implement the same for Thumb conditional branch instructions. This involves setting up insn_check_cc to point to the relevant condition checking function. As the emulation routine is only called when this condition passes, it doesn't need to check again and can unconditionally update PC.

The normal Thumb singlestepping routine updates the IT state after calling the instruction handler. We don't what this to happen after the IT instruction simulation sets the IT state, therefore we need to provide a custom singlestep routine.

These instructions are equivalent to stmdb sp!,{r0-r7,lr} ldmdb sp!,{r0-r7,pc} and we emulate them by transforming them into the 32-bit Thumb instructions stmdb r9!,{r0-r7,r8} ldmdb r9!,{r0-r7,r8} This is simpler, and almost certainly executes faster, than writing simulation functions.

Most of these instructions only operate on the low registers R0-R7 so they can make use of t16_emulate_loregs_rwflags.

These data-processing instructions operate on the full range of CPU registers, so to simulate them we have to modify the registers used by the instruction. We can't make use of the decoding table framework to do this because the registers aren't encoded cleanly in separate nibbles, therefore we need a custom decode function.

These instructions only operate on the low registers R0-R7, therefore it is possible to emulate them by executing the original instruction unaltered if we restore and save these registers. This is what t16_emulate_loregs does. Some of these instructions don't update the PSR when they execute in an IT block, so there are two flavours of emulation functions: t16_emulate_loregs_{noit}rwflags Signed-off-by: NJon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Acked-by: NNicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

The existing ARM instruction decoding functions are a mass of if/else code. Rather than follow this pattern for Thumb instruction decoding this patch implements an infrastructure for a new table driven scheme. This has several advantages: - Reduces the kernel size by approx 2kB. (The ARM instruction decoding will eventually have -3.1kB code, +1.3kB data; with similar or better estimated savings for Thumb decoding.) - Allows programmatic checking of decoding consistency and test case coverage. - Provides more uniform source code and is therefore, arguably, clearer. For a detailed explanation of how decoding tables work see the in-source documentation in kprobes.h, and also for kprobe_decode_insn().

When we come to emulating Thumb instructions then, to interwork correctly, the code on in the instruction slot must be invoked with a function pointer which has the least significant bit set. Rather that set this by hand in every Thumb emulation function we will add a new field for this purpose to arch_specific_insn, called insn_fn. This also enables us to seamlessly share emulation functions between ARM and Thumb code. Signed-off-by: NJon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Acked-by: NNicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

When a probe fires we must single-step the instruction which was replaced by a breakpoint. As the steps to do this vary between ARM and Thumb instructions we need a way to customise single-stepping. This is done by adding a new hook called insn_singlestep to arch_specific_insn which is initialised by the instruction decoding functions. These single-step hooks must update PC and call the instruction handler. For Thumb instructions an additional step of updating ITSTATE is needed. We do this after calling the handler because some handlers will need to test if they are running in an IT block.

Now we no longer trigger probes on conditional instructions when the condition is false, we can make use of conditional instructions as breakpoints in ARM code to avoid taking unnecessary exceptions. Note, we can't rely on not getting an exception when the condition check fails, as that is Implementation Defined on newer ARM architectures. We therefore still need to perform manual condition checks as well. Signed-off-by: NJon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Acked-by: NNicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

This patch changes the behavior of kprobes on ARM so that: Kprobes on conditional instructions don't trigger when the condition is false. For conditional branches, this means that they don't trigger in the branch not taken case. Rationale: When probes are placed onto conditionally executed instructions in a Thumb IT block, they may not fire if the condition is not met. This is because we use invalid instructions for breakpoints and "it is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether the instruction executes as a NOP or causes an Undefined Instruction exception". Therefore, for consistency, we will ignore all probes on any conditional instructions when the condition is false. Alternative solutions seem to be too complex to implement or inconsistent.

Extend the breakpoint insertion and catching functions to support Thumb code. As breakpoints are no longer of a fixed size, the flush_insns macro is modified to take a size argument instead of an instruction count. Note, we need both 16- and 32-bit Thumb breakpoints, because if we were to use a 16-bit breakpoint to replace a 32-bit instruction which was in an IT block, and the condition check failed, then the breakpoint may not fire (it's unpredictable behaviour) and the CPU could then try and execute the second half of the 32-bit Thumb instruction.
