<title>kprobes: Fix to delay the kprobes jump optimization</title>

Commit 36dadef23fcc ("kprobes: Init kprobes in early_initcall")
moved the kprobe setup in early_initcall(), which includes kprobe
jump optimization.
The kprobes jump optimizer involves synchronize_rcu_tasks() which
depends on the ksoftirqd and rcu_spawn_tasks_*(). However, since
those are setup in core_initcall(), kprobes jump optimizer can not
run at the early_initcall().

To avoid this issue, make the kprobe optimization disabled in the
early_initcall() and enables it in subsys_initcall().

Note that non-optimized kprobes is still available after
early_initcall(). Only jump optimization is delayed.

<title>kretprobe: Avoid re-registration of the same kretprobe earlier</title>

<content type='text'>
Our system encountered a re-init error when re-registering same kretprobe,
where the kretprobe_instance in rp-&gt;free_instances is illegally accessed
after re-init.

Implementation to avoid re-registration has been introduced for kprobe
before, but lags for register_kretprobe(). We must check if kprobe has
been re-registered before re-initializing kretprobe, otherwise it will
destroy the data struct of kretprobe registered, which can lead to memory
leak, system crash, also some unexpected behaviors.

We use check_kprobe_rereg() to check if kprobe has been re-registered
before running register_kretprobe()'s body, for giving a warning message
and terminate registration process.

<title>tracing/kprobe: Fix to support kretprobe events on unloaded modules</title>

<id>97c753e62e6c31a404183898d950d8c08d752dbd</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix kprobe_on_func_entry() returns error code instead of false so that
register_kretprobe() can return an appropriate error code.

append_trace_kprobe() expects the kprobe registration returns -ENOENT
when the target symbol is not found, and it checks whether the target
module is unloaded or not. If the target module doesn't exist, it
defers to probe the target symbol until the module is loaded.

However, since register_kretprobe() returns -EINVAL instead of -ENOENT
in that case, it always fail on putting the kretprobe event on unloaded
modules. e.g.

Kprobe event:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo p xfs:xfs_end_io &gt;&gt; kprobe_events
[   16.515574] trace_kprobe: This probe might be able to register after target module is loaded. Continue.

Kretprobe event: (p -&gt; r)
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo r xfs:xfs_end_io &gt;&gt; kprobe_events
sh: write error: Invalid argument
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat error_log
[   41.122514] trace_kprobe: error: Failed to register probe event
  Command: r xfs:xfs_end_io
             ^

To fix this bug, change kprobe_on_func_entry() to detect symbol lookup
failure and return -ENOENT in that case. Otherwise it returns -EINVAL
or 0 (succeeded, given address is on the entry).

The kretprobe hash is mostly superfluous, replace it with a per-task
variable.

This gets rid of the task hash and it's related locking.

Note that this may change the kprobes module-exported API for kretprobe
handlers. If any out-of-tree kretprobe user uses ri-&gt;rp, use
get_kretprobe(ri) instead.

Init kprobes feature in early_initcall as same as jump_label and
dynamic_debug does, so that we can use kprobes events in earlier
boot stage.

Since kprobe_event= cmdline option allows user to put kprobes on the
functions in initmem, kprobe has to make such probes gone after boot.
Currently the probes on the init functions in modules will be handled
by module callback, but the kernel init text isn't handled.
Without this, kprobes may access non-exist text area to disable or
remove it.
