This patch enables multiple bpf attachments for a kprobe/uprobe/tracepoint single trace event. Each trace_event keeps a list of attached perf events. When an event happens, all attached bpf programs will be executed based on the order of attachment. A global bpf_event_mutex lock is introduced to protect prog_array attaching and detaching. An alternative will be introduce a mutex lock in every trace_event_call structure, but it takes a lot of extra memory. So a global bpf_event_mutex lock is a good compromise. The bpf prog detachment involves allocation of memory. If the allocation fails, a dummy do-nothing program will replace to-be-detached program in-place.

When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug which can be reproduced by: perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 & perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf script ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns We can see that all the function traces are doubled. The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu, the traces of them will be doubled. So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event, only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

Enabling the tracer selftest triggers occasionally the warning in text_poke(), which warns when the to be modified page is not marked reserved. The reason is that the tracer selftest installs kprobes on functions marked __init for testing. These probes are removed after the tests, but that removal schedules the delayed kprobes_optimizer work, which will do the actual text poke. If the work is executed after the init text is freed, then the warning triggers. The bug can be reproduced reliably when the work delay is increased. Flush the optimizer work and wait for the optimizing/unoptimizing lists to become empty before returning from the kprobes tracer selftest. That ensures that all operations which were queued due to the probes removal have completed.

由 Alban Crequy 提交于
When a kretprobe is installed on a kernel function, there is a maximum limit of how many calls in parallel it can catch (aka "maxactive"). A kernel module could call register_kretprobe() and initialize maxactive (see example in samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c). But that is not exposed to userspace and it is currently not possible to choose maxactive when writing to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events The default maxactive can be as low as 1 on single-core with a non-preemptive kernel. This is too low and we need to increase it not only for recursive functions, but for functions that sleep or resched. This patch updates the format of the command that can be written to kprobe_events so that maxactive can be optionally specified. I need this for a bpf program attached to the kretprobe of inet_csk_accept, which can sleep for a long time. This patch includes a basic selftest: > # ./ftracetest -v test.d/kprobe/ > === Ftrace unit tests === > [1] Kprobe dynamic event - adding and removing [PASS] > [2] Kprobe dynamic event - busy event check [PASS] > [3] Kprobe dynamic event with arguments [PASS] > [4] Kprobes event arguments with types [PASS] > [5] Kprobe dynamic event with function tracer [PASS] > [6] Kretprobe dynamic event with arguments [PASS] > [7] Kretprobe dynamic event with maxactive [PASS] > > # of passed: 7 > # of failed: 0 > # of unresolved: 0 > # of untested: 0 > # of unsupported: 0 > # of xfailed: 0 > # of undefined(test bug): 0 BugLink: https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/issues/1072 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1491215782-15490-1-git-send-email-alban@kinvolk.ioAcked-by: NMasami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NAlban Crequy <alban@kinvolk.io> Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

perf specifies an offset from _text and since this offset is fed directly into the arch-specific helper, kprobes tracer rejects installation of kretprobes through perf. Fix this by looking up the actual offset from a function for the specified sym+offset. Refactor and reuse existing routines to limit code duplication -- we repurpose kprobe_addr() for determining final kprobe address and we split out the function entry offset determination into a separate generic helper.

Since the kernel includes many non-global functions with same names, we will need to use offsets from other symbols (typically _text/_stext) or absolute addresses to place return probes on specific functions.

Commit 265a5b7e ("kprobes/trace: Fix kprobe selftest for gcc 4.6") has added __used attribute to kprobe_trace_selftest_target to ensure that the method is listed in kallsyms table. However, even though the method remains in the kernel image, the actual call is optimized away as there are no side effects and the return value is never checked. Add a return value check and a 'noinline' attribute to ensure that an inlined copy of the method is not used by the caller. Also add checks that verify that the kprobe was really hit, as at the moment the tests show positive results despite the test method being optimized away. Finally, add __init annotations to find_trace_probe_file() and kprobe_trace_selftest_target() as they are only called from within an __init method.

ftrace is very quick to give up on saving the task command line (see `trace_save_cmdline()`). The workaround for events which really care about the command line is to explicitly assign it as part of the entry. However, this doesn't work for kprobe events, as there's no straightforward way to get access to current->comm. Add a kprobe/uprobe event variable $comm which provides exactly that.

BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break out of their sandbox. The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall: struct perf_event_attr attr = { .type = PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT, .config = event_id, ... }; event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...); ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd); 'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program previously loaded. 'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created. Closing 'event_fd': close(event_fd); ... automatically detaches BPF program from it. BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to: - lookup/update/delete elements in maps - probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any kernel data structures BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store kprobe event into the ring buffer. Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI, so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

The commit that added a check for this to checkpatch says: "Using weak declarations can have unintended link defects. The __weak on the declaration causes non-weak definitions to become weak." In this case, when a PowerPC kernel is built with CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT but not CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT, it generates the following warning: WARNING: 1 bad relocations c0000000014f2190 R_PPC64_ADDR64 uprobes_fetch_type_table This is fixed by passing the fetch_table arrays to traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() which also means that they can never be NULL.

debugfs was fine for the tracing facility as a quick way to get an interface. Now that tracing has matured, it should separate itself from debugfs such that it can be mounted separately without needing to mount all of debugfs with it. That is, users resist using tracing because it requires mounting debugfs. Having tracing have its own file system lets users get the features of tracing without needing to bring in the rest of the kernel's debug infrastructure. Another reason for tracefs is that debubfs does not support mkdir. Currently, to create instances, one does a mkdir in the tracing/instance directory. This is implemented via a hack that forces debugfs to do something it is not intended on doing. By converting over to tracefs, this hack can be removed and mkdir can be properly implemented. This patch does not address this yet, but it lays the ground work for that to be done. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf related callbacks have massive stack bloat. The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled it with minimal bits required for operation. Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available, making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste. This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static per-cpu storage instead of on-stack. Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler. We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs() like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs element to use). One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs pointer available and do not need another.

Instead of checking the return value of trace_seq_printf() and friends for overflowing of the buffer, use the trace_seq_has_overflowed() helper function. This cleans up the code quite a bit and also takes us a step closer to changing the return values of trace_seq_printf() and friends to void.

Using seq_printf to print a simple string or a single character is a lot more expensive than it needs to be, since seq_puts and seq_putc exist. These patches do seq_printf(m, s) -> seq_puts(m, s) seq_printf(m, "%s", s) -> seq_puts(m, s) seq_printf(m, "%c", c) -> seq_putc(m, c) Subsequent patches will simplify further.

Register/unregister tracepoint probes with struct tracepoint pointer rather than tracepoint name. This change, which vastly simplifies tracepoint.c, has been proposed by Steven Rostedt. It also removes 8.8kB (mostly of text) to the vmlinux size. From this point on, the tracers need to pass a struct tracepoint pointer to probe register/unregister. A probe can now only be connected to a tracepoint that exists. Moreover, tracers are responsible for unregistering the probe before the module containing its associated tracepoint is unloaded. text data bss dec hex filename 10443444 4282528 10391552 25117524 17f4354 vmlinux.orig 10434930 4282848 10391552 25109330 17f2352 vmlinux Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1396992381-23785-2-git-send-email-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com CC: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> CC: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> CC: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> CC: Frank Ch.

Support multi-buffer on uprobe-based dynamic events by using ftrace_event_file. This patch is based kprobe-based dynamic events multibuffer support work initially, commited by Masami(commit 41a7dd42), but revised as below: Oleg changed the kprobe-based multibuffer design from array-pointers of ftrace_event_file into simple list, so this patch also change to the list design. rcu_read_lock/unlock added into uprobe_trace_func/uretprobe_trace_func, to synchronize with ftrace_event_file list add and delete. Even though we allow multi-uprobes instances now, but TP_FLAG_PROFILE/TP_FLAG_TRACE are still mutually exclusive in probe_event_enable currently, this means we cannot allow one user is using uprobe-tracer, and another user is using perf-probe on same uprobe concurrently. (Perhaps this will be fix in future, kprobe don't have this limitation now) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1389946120-19610-4-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.orgReviewed-by: NMasami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Reviewed-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Nzhangwei(Jovi) <jovi.zhangwei@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: NNamhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
