arm: kprobes: Align stack to 8-bytes in test code

2017-03-21T16:24:19Z

kprobes test cases need to have a stack that is aligned to an 8-byte boundary because they call other functions (and the ARM ABI mandates that alignment) and because test cases include 64-bit accesses to the stack. Unfortunately, GCC doesn't ensure this alignment for inline assembler and for the code in question seems to always misalign it by pushing just the LR register onto the stack. We therefore need to explicitly perform stack alignment at the start of each test case. Without this fix, some test cases will generate alignment faults on systems where alignment is enforced. Even if the kernel is configured to handle these faults in software, triggering them is ugly. It also exposes limitations in the fault handling code which doesn't cope with writes to the stack. E.g. when handling this instruction strd r6, [sp, #-64]! the fault handling code will write to a stack location below the SP value at the point the fault occurred, which coincides with where the exception handler has pushed the saved register context. This results in corruption of those registers. Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst

arm: kprobes: Fix the return address of multiple kretprobes

2017-03-21T16:24:18Z

This is arm port of commit 737480a0d525 ("kprobes/x86: Fix the return address of multiple kretprobes"). Fix the return address of subsequent kretprobes when multiple kretprobes are set on the same function. For example: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo "r:event1 sys_symlink" > kprobe_events # echo "r:event2 sys_symlink" >> kprobe_events # echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable # ln -s /tmp/foo /tmp/bar (without this patch) # cat trace | grep -v ^# ln-82 [000] dn.2 68.446525: event1: (kretprobe_trampoline+0x0/0x18 <- SyS_symlink) ln-82 [000] dn.2 68.447831: event2: (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c <- SyS_symlink) (with this patch) # cat trace | grep -v ^# ln-81 [000] dn.1 39.463469: event1: (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c <- SyS_symlink) ln-81 [000] dn.1 39.464701: event2: (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c <- SyS_symlink) Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: KUMANO Syuhei Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst

arm: kprobes: Skip single-stepping in recursing path if possible

2017-03-21T16:24:18Z

Kprobes/arm skips single-stepping (moreover handling the event) if the conditional instruction must not be executed. This also apply the rule when we hit the recursing kprobe, so that kprobe does not count nmissed up in that case. Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst

arm: kprobes: Allow to handle reentered kprobe on single-stepping

2017-03-21T16:24:18Z

This is arm port of commit 6a5022a56ac3 ("kprobes/x86: Allow to handle reentered kprobe on single-stepping") Since the FIQ handlers can interrupt in the single stepping (or preparing the single stepping, do_debug etc.), we should consider a kprobe is hit in the NMI handler. Even in that case, the kprobe is allowed to be reentered as same as the kprobes hit in kprobe handlers (KPROBE_HIT_ACTIVE or KPROBE_HIT_SSDONE). The real issue will happen when a kprobe hit while another reentered kprobe is processing (KPROBE_REENTER), because we already consumed a saved-area for the previous kprobe.

sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

We are going to split out of , which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder file that just maps to to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

kprobes: move kprobe declarations to asm-generic/kprobes.h

2017-02-28T02:43:45Z

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of clutter as possible. Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled CONFIG_KPROBES. Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES, this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely. Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them. Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without bringing the full kitchen sink of header files. Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added. We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless kprobes have been enabled. In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from include/linux/kprobes.h. During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

ARM: kprobes: Fix compilation error caused by superfluous '*'

There is a superfluous '*' in the definition of kprobe_decode_insn_t which on older versions of GCC (4.2.4) causes the compilation error: In file included from arch/arm/probes/kprobes/core.c:37: arch/arm/probes/kprobes/core.h:43: error: '[*]' not allowed in other than a declaration Fix this by removing the unneeded character.

ARM: optprobes: execute instruction during restoring if possible.

2015-01-14T12:24:52Z

This patch removes software emulation or simulation for most of probed instructions. If the instruction doesn't use PC relative addressing, it will be translated into following instructions in the restore code in code template: ldmia {r0 - r14} // restore all instruction except PC // direct execute the probed instruction b next_insn // branch to next instruction.
