[ Upstream commit 15f1bd8574662f1b7b26aaa2e23ebf4066f0117d ]

The get_perf_callchain call needs disabled preemption plus we need
it disabled as long as we access its returned trace entries buffer.

Note the bpf_get_stackid_pe function is executed already with
preemption disabled.

Replacing __bpf_get_stackid calls with sequence of following functions:

  stackid_fastpath
  stackid_new_bucket
  stackid_install

This makes code more structured and allows us to easily disable
preemption only in bpf_get_stackid in following changes.

commit b1a47b2708d4e95dbd23aee2ec83752190897b3f upstream.

get_perf_callchain() returns a per-CPU perf_callchain_entry buffer and
releases its recursion slot via put_callchain_entry() before returning,
so nothing keeps the entry reserved while __bpf_get_stack() consumes
it below.

A preemptible BPF program (e.g. a non-sleepable raw tracepoint program
on a PREEMPT kernel, which runs under migrate_disable() but not
preempt_disable()) can be scheduled out between obtaining the entry
and the copy. Another task scheduled on the same CPU then reuses the
same per-CPU buffer and overwrites trace-&gt;nr with a larger value.
copy_len is then computed from the inflated trace-&gt;nr and can exceed
the caller's buffer, causing an out-of-bounds write in the memcpy()
and in the build_id path.

The rcu_read_lock() taken here alone does not prevent this. It is
only taken on the may_fault path, and under CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU it does
not disable preemption; it merely keeps perf's callchain buffer array
alive (freed via call_rcu()) and does nothing to stop another task
from reusing the entry.

Disable preemption around obtaining the callchain entry and copying
it into the caller's buffer, so the entry cannot be reused underneath
us and trace-&gt;nr stays bounded by max_depth. Build ID resolution may
fault and is therefore deferred until after preemption is re-enabled;
by then the instruction pointers have already been copied into buf,
so it operates only on that private copy. Note, preempt_disable() also
subsumes the buffer-lifetime guarantee the rcu_read_lock() provided,
since a preempt-disabled section is an RCU read-side critical section
for the callchain buffers' call_rcu() reclaim.

<title>bpf: Fix build_id caching in stack_map_get_build_id_offset()</title>

<id>5e72b5b157299f703d0c08c543e68916d263b4a4</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch is a follow up to recent implementation of
stack_map_get_build_id_offset_sleepable() [1].

stack_map_get_build_id_offset() and its sleepable variant each cached
only the last successfully resolved VMA, with separate bookkeeping in
each function. A run of IPs in a VMA with no usable build ID will
repeat the lookup for every frame: find_vma() in the non-sleepable
path, a VMA lock and a blocking build_id_parse_file() in the sleepable.

Factor the per-call cache into a shared struct stack_map_build_id_cache
with two independent slots [2][3], used by both functions:

  * resolved   - last VMA that produced a build ID (file, build_id and
                 range), reused to skip the lookup and the parse;
  * unresolved - last VMA with no usable build ID (range only), reused to
                 emit a raw IP without another lookup or parse.

Keeping the slots independent means a build-ID-less VMA no longer evicts
the last resolved build ID, so a trace alternating between a binary and a
region without one stops re-resolving the binary on every return.

The shared lookup tests [vm_start, vm_end), matching the sleepable path;
the non-sleepable path previously reused a build ID for ip == vm_end
(range_in_vma() is inclusive) and now re-resolves it correctly.

Stack traces often contain adjacent IPs from the same VMA or from
different VMAs backed by the same ELF file. Cache the last successfully
parsed build id together with the resolved VMA range and backing file
so the sleepable build id path can avoid repeated VMA locking and file
parsing in common cases.

<title>bpf: Avoid faultable build ID reads under mm locks</title>

<content type='text'>
Sleepable build ID parsing can block in __kernel_read() [1], so the
stackmap sleepable path must not call it while holding mmap_lock or a
per-VMA read lock.

The issue and the fix are conceptually similar to a recent procfs
patch [2]. A similar VMA locking pattern has already been used in
PROCMAP_QUERY [3].

Resolve each covered VMA with a stable read-side reference, preferring
lock_vma_under_rcu() and falling back to mmap_read_trylock() only long
enough to acquire the VMA read lock. Take a reference to the backing
file, drop the VMA lock, and then parse the build ID through
(sleepable) build_id_parse_file().

We have to use mmap_read_trylock() (and give up on failure) in this
context because taking mmap_read_lock() is generally unsafe on code
paths reachable from BPF programs [4], and may lead to deadlocks.

<title>bpf: Factor out stack_map build ID helpers</title>

Factor out helpers from stack_map_get_build_id_offset() in
preparation for adding a sleepable build ID resolution path:
stack_map_build_id_set_ip(), stack_map_build_id_offset(), and
stack_map_build_id_set_valid().

While here, refactor stack_map_get_build_id_offset():
  * use continue-driven control flow in the main loop and remove
    build_id_valid label
  * update prev_vma and prev_build_id on the fall-back-to-IP branch so
    the cache reflects the actual VMA seen on the previous IP [1]
  * guard fetch_build_id() with vma_is_anonymous() [2] to skip parse
    attempts that would otherwise fail the ELF magic check
