      [PATCH] kprobes: enable booster on the preemptible kernel · b4c6c34a
      由 Masami Hiramatsu 提交于 
      When we are unregistering a kprobe-booster, we can't release its
instruction buffer immediately on the preemptive kernel, because some
processes might be preempted on the buffer.  The freeze_processes() and
thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer.
There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag.  If
those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the
buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing.

However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time.  So, this
patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot.  It also
introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency.

The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released
immediately.  But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are
marked as garbages.  collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release
"dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if
there are no unused slots.

      [PATCH] kprobes: fix unloading of self probed module · df019b1d
      由 Keshavamurthy Anil S 提交于 
      When a kprobes modules is written in such a way that probes are inserted on
itself, then unload of that moudle was not possible due to reference
couning on the same module.

The below patch makes a check and incrementes the module refcount only if
it is not a self probed module.

We need to allow modules to probe themself for kprobes performance
measurements

This patch has been tested on several x86_64, ppc64 and IA64 architectures.

      [PATCH] Kprobes: prevent possible race conditions generic · d0aaff97
      由 Prasanna S Panchamukhi 提交于 
      There are possible race conditions if probes are placed on routines within the
kprobes files and routines used by the kprobes.  For example if you put probe
on get_kprobe() routines, the system can hang while inserting probes on any
routine such as do_fork().  Because while inserting probes on do_fork(),
register_kprobes() routine grabs the kprobes spin lock and executes
get_kprobe() routine and to handle probe of get_kprobe(), kprobes_handler()
gets executed and tries to grab kprobes spin lock, and spins forever.  This
patch avoids such possible race conditions by preventing probes on routines
within the kprobes file and routines used by kprobes.

I have modified the patches as per Andi Kleen's suggestion to move kprobes
routines and other routines used by kprobes to a seperate section
.kprobes.text.

Also moved page fault and exception handlers, general protection fault to
.kprobes.text section.

These patches have been tested on i386, x86_64 and ppc64 architectures, also
compiled on ia64 and sparc64 architectures.

      [PATCH] Return probe redesign: architecture independent changes · 802eae7c
      由 Rusty Lynch 提交于 
      The following is the second version of the function return probe patches
I sent out earlier this week.  Changes since my last submission include:

* Fix in ppc64 code removing an unneeded call to re-enable preemption
* Fix a build problem in ia64 when kprobes was turned off
* Added another BUG_ON check to each of the architecture trampoline
  handlers

My initial patch description ==>

 From my experiences with adding return probes to x86_64 and ia64, and the
feedback on LKML to those patches, I think we can simplify the design
for return probes.

The following patch tweaks the original design such that:

* Instead of storing the stack address in the return probe instance, the
  task pointer is stored.  This gives us all we need in order to:
    - find the correct return probe instance when we enter the trampoline
      (even if we are recursing)
    - find all left-over return probe instances when the task is going away

  This has the side effect of simplifying the implementation since more
  work can be done in kernel/kprobes.c since architecture specific knowledge
  of the stack layout is no longer required.  Specifically, we no longer have:
	- arch_get_kprobe_task()
	- arch_kprobe_flush_task()
	- get_rp_inst_tsk()
	- get_rp_inst()
	- trampoline_post_handler() <see next bullet>

* Instead of splitting the return probe handling and cleanup logic across
  the pre and post trampoline handlers, all the work is pushed into the
  pre function (trampoline_probe_handler), and then we skip single stepping
  the original function.  In this case the original instruction to be single
  stepped was just a NOP, and we can do without the extra interruption.

The new flow of events to having a return probe handler execute when a target
function exits is:

* At system initialization time, a kprobe is inserted at the beginning of
  kretprobe_trampoline.  kernel/kprobes.c use to handle this on it's own,
  but ia64 needed to do this a little differently (i.e. a function pointer
  is really a pointer to a structure containing the instruction pointer and
  a global pointer), so I added the notion of arch_init(), so that
  kernel/kprobes.c:init_kprobes() now allows architecture specific
  initialization by calling arch_init() before exiting.  Each architecture
  now registers a kprobe on it's own trampoline function.

* register_kretprobe() will insert a kprobe at the beginning of the targeted
  function with the kprobe pre_handler set to arch_prepare_kretprobe
  (still no change)

* When the target function is entered, the kprobe is fired, calling
  arch_prepare_kretprobe (still no change)

* In arch_prepare_kretprobe() we try to get a free instance and if one is
  available then we fill out the instance with a pointer to the return probe,
  the original return address, and a pointer to the task structure (instead
  of the stack address.)  Just like before we change the return address
  to the trampoline function and mark the instance as used.

  If multiple return probes are registered for a given target function,
  then arch_prepare_kretprobe() will get called multiple times for the same
  task (since our kprobe implementation is able to handle multiple kprobes
  at the same address.)  Past the first call to arch_prepare_kretprobe,
  we end up with the original address stored in the return probe instance
  pointing to our trampoline function. (This is a significant difference
  from the original arch_prepare_kretprobe design.)

* Target function executes like normal and then returns to kretprobe_trampoline.

* kprobe inserted on the first instruction of kretprobe_trampoline is fired
  and calls trampoline_probe_handler() (no change here)

* trampoline_probe_handler() consumes each of the instances associated with
  the current task by calling the registered handler function and marking
  the instance as unused until an instance is found that has a return address
  different then the trampoline function.

  (change similar to my previous ia64 RFC)

* If the task is killed with some left-over return probe instances (meaning
  that a target function was entered, but never returned), then we just
  free any instances associated with the task.  (Not much different other
  then we can handle this without calling architecture specific functions.)

  There is a known problem that this patch does not yet solve where
  registering a return probe flush_old_exec or flush_thread will put us
  in a bad state.  Most likely the best way to handle this is to not allow
  registering return probes on these two functions.

  (Significant change)

This patch series applies to the 2.6.12-rc6-mm1 kernel, and provides:
  * kernel/kprobes.c changes
  * i386 patch of existing return probes implementation
  * x86_64 patch of existing return probe implementation
  * ia64 implementation
  * ppc64 implementation (provided by Ananth)

This patch implements the architecture independant changes for a reworking
of the kprobes based function return probes design. Changes include:

  * Removing functions for querying a return probe instance off a stack address
  * Removing the stack_addr field from the kretprobe_instance definition,
    and adding a task pointer
  * Adding architecture specific initialization via arch_init()
  * Removing extern definitions for the architecture trampoline functions
    (this isn't needed anymore since the architecture handles the
     initialization of the kprobe in the return probe trampoline function.)

      [PATCH] kprobes: fix single-step out of line - take2 · 9ec4b1f3
      由 Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli 提交于 
      Now that PPC64 has no-execute support, here is a second try to fix the
single step out of line during kprobe execution.  Kprobes on x86_64 already
solved this problem by allocating an executable page and using it as the
scratch area for stepping out of line.  Reuse that.

      [PATCH] kprobes: Temporary disarming of reentrant probe · ea32c65c
      由 Prasanna S Panchamukhi 提交于 
      In situations where a kprobes handler calls a routine which has a probe on it,
then kprobes_handler() disarms the new probe forever.  This patch removes the
above limitation by temporarily disarming the new probe.  When the another
probe hits while handling the old probe, the kprobes_handler() saves previous
kprobes state and handles the new probe without calling the new kprobes
registered handlers.  kprobe_post_handler() restores back the previous kprobes
state and the normal execution continues.

However on x86_64 architecture, re-rentrancy is provided only through
pre_handler().  If a routine having probe is referenced through
post_handler(), then the probes on that routine are disarmed forever, since
the exception stack is gets changed after the processor single steps the
instruction of the new probe.

This patch includes generic changes to support temporary disarming on
reentrancy of probes.

      [PATCH] Move kprobe [dis]arming into arch specific code · 7e1048b1
      由 Rusty Lynch 提交于 
      The architecture independent code of the current kprobes implementation is
arming and disarming kprobes at registration time.  The problem is that the
code is assuming that arming and disarming is a just done by a simple write
of some magic value to an address.  This is problematic for ia64 where our
instructions look more like structures, and we can not insert break points
by just doing something like:

*p->addr = BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION;

The following patch to 2.6.12-rc4-mm2 adds two new architecture dependent
functions:

     * void arch_arm_kprobe(struct kprobe *p)
     * void arch_disarm_kprobe(struct kprobe *p)

and then adds the new functions for each of the architectures that already
implement kprobes (spar64/ppc64/i386/x86_64).

I thought arch_[dis]arm_kprobe was the most descriptive of what was really
happening, but each of the architectures already had a disarm_kprobe()
function that was really a "disarm and do some other clean-up items as
needed when you stumble across a recursive kprobe." So...  I took the
liberty of changing the code that was calling disarm_kprobe() to call
arch_disarm_kprobe(), and then do the cleanup in the block of code dealing
with the recursive kprobe case.

So far this patch as been tested on i386, x86_64, and ppc64, but still
needs to be tested in sparc64.

      [PATCH] kprobes: function-return probes · b94cce92
      由 Hien Nguyen 提交于 
      This patch adds function-return probes to kprobes for the i386
architecture.  This enables you to establish a handler to be run when a
function returns.

1. API

Two new functions are added to kprobes:

	int register_kretprobe(struct kretprobe *rp);
	void unregister_kretprobe(struct kretprobe *rp);

2. Registration and unregistration

2.1 Register

  To register a function-return probe, the user populates the following
  fields in a kretprobe object and calls register_kretprobe() with the
  kretprobe address as an argument:

  kp.addr - the function's address

  handler - this function is run after the ret instruction executes, but
  before control returns to the return address in the caller.

  maxactive - The maximum number of instances of the probed function that
  can be active concurrently.  For example, if the function is non-
  recursive and is called with a spinlock or mutex held, maxactive = 1
  should be enough.  If the function is non-recursive and can never
  relinquish the CPU (e.g., via a semaphore or preemption), NR_CPUS should
  be enough.  maxactive is used to determine how many kretprobe_instance
  objects to allocate for this particular probed function.  If maxactive <=
  0, it is set to a default value (if CONFIG_PREEMPT maxactive=max(10, 2 *
  NR_CPUS) else maxactive=NR_CPUS)

  For example:

    struct kretprobe rp;
    rp.kp.addr = /* entrypoint address */
    rp.handler = /*return probe handler */
    rp.maxactive = /* e.g., 1 or NR_CPUS or 0, see the above explanation */
    register_kretprobe(&rp);

  The following field may also be of interest:

  nmissed - Initialized to zero when the function-return probe is
  registered, and incremented every time the probed function is entered but
  there is no kretprobe_instance object available for establishing the
  function-return probe (i.e., because maxactive was set too low).

2.2 Unregister

  To unregiter a function-return probe, the user calls
  unregister_kretprobe() with the same kretprobe object as registered
  previously.  If a probed function is running when the return probe is
  unregistered, the function will return as expected, but the handler won't
  be run.

3. Limitations

3.1 This patch supports only the i386 architecture, but patches for
    x86_64 and ppc64 are anticipated soon.

3.2 Return probes operates by replacing the return address in the stack
    (or in a known register, such as the lr register for ppc).  This may
    cause __builtin_return_address(0), when invoked from the return-probed
    function, to return the address of the return-probes trampoline.

3.3 This implementation uses the "Multiprobes at an address" feature in
    2.6.12-rc3-mm3.

3.4 Due to a limitation in multi-probes, you cannot currently establish
    a return probe and a jprobe on the same function.  A patch to remove
    this limitation is being tested.

This feature is required by SystemTap (http://sourceware.org/systemtap),
and reflects ideas contributed by several SystemTap developers, including
Will Cohen and Ananth Mavinakayanahalli.
