      [PATCH] Return probe redesign: x86_64 specific changes · ba8af12f
      Rusty Lynch 提交于
      The following patch contains the x86_64 specific changes for the new
      return probe design.  Changes include:
       * Removing the architecture specific functions for querying a return probe
         instance off a stack address
       * Complete rework onf arch_prepare_kretprobe() and trampoline_probe_handler()
       * Removing trampoline_post_handler()
       * Adding arch_init() so that now we handle registering the return probe
         trampoline instead of kernel/kprobes.c doing it
      
      NOTE:
      Note that with this new design, the dependency on calculating a pointer to
      the task off the stack pointer no longer exist (resolving the problem of
      interruption stacks as pointed out in the original feedback to this port.)

      [PATCH] kprobes: fix single-step out of line - take2 · 9ec4b1f3
      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] seccomp: tsc disable · ffaa8bd6
      Andrea Arcangeli 提交于
      I believe at least for seccomp it's worth to turn off the tsc, not just for
      HT but for the L2 cache too.  So it's up to you, either you turn it off
      completely (which isn't very nice IMHO) or I recommend to apply this below
      patch.
      
      This has been tested successfully on x86-64 against current cogito
      repository (i686 compiles so I didn't bother testing ;).  People selling
      the cpu through cpushare may appreciate this bit for a peace of mind.
      
      There's no way to get any timing info anymore with this applied
      (gettimeofday is forbidden of course).  The seccomp environment is
      completely deterministic so it can't be allowed to get timing info, it has
      to be deterministic so in the future I can enable a computing mode that
      does a parallel computing for each task with server side transparent
      checkpointing and verification that the output is the same from all the 2/3
      seller computers for each task, without the buyer even noticing (for now
      the verification is left to the buyer client side and there's no
      checkpointing, since that would require more kernel changes to track the
      dirty bits but it'll be easy to extend once the basic mode is finished).
      
      Eliminating a cold-cache read of the cr4 global variable will save one
      cacheline during the tlb flush while making the code per-cpu-safe at the
      same time.  Thanks to Mikael Pettersson for noticing the tlb flush wasn't
      per-cpu-safe.
      
      The global tlb flush can run from irq (IPI calling do_flush_tlb_all) but
      it'll be transparent to the switch_to code since the IPI won't make any
      change to the cr4 contents from the point of view of the interrupted code
      and since it's now all per-cpu stuff, it will not race.  So no need to
      disable irqs in switch_to slow path.
