<title>kprobes: kretprobe events missing on 2-core KVM guest</title>

<id>3b7ddab8a19aefc768f345fd3782af35b4a68d9b</id>
<content type='text'>
Default value of maxactive is set as num_possible_cpus() for nonpreemptable
systems. For a 2-core system, only 2 kretprobe instances would be allocated
in default, then these 2 instances for execve kretprobe are very likely to
be used up with a pipelined command.

Here's the testcase: a shell script was added to crontab, and the content
of the script is:

  #!/bin/sh
  do_something_magic `tr -dc a-z &lt; /dev/urandom | head -c 10`

cron will trigger a series of program executions (4 times every hour). Then
events loss would be noticed normally after 3-4 hours of testings.

The issue is caused by a burst of series of execve requests. The best number
of kretprobe instances could be different case by case, and should be user's
duty to determine, but num_possible_cpus() as the default value is inadequate
especially for systems with small number of cpus.

This patch enables the logic for preemption as default, thus increases the
minimum of maxactive to 10 for nonpreemptable systems.

<title>kprobes: Fix check for probe enabled in kill_kprobe()</title>

<content type='text'>
In kill_kprobe(), the check whether disarm_kprobe_ftrace() needs to be
called always fails. This is because before that we set the
KPROBE_FLAG_GONE flag for kprobe so that "!kprobe_disabled(p)" is always
false.

The disarm_kprobe_ftrace() call introduced by commit:

  0cb2f1372baa ("kprobes: Fix NULL pointer dereference at kprobe_ftrace_handler")

to fix the NULL pointer reference problem. When the probe is enabled, if
we do not disarm it, this problem still exists.

Fix it by putting the probe enabled check before setting the
KPROBE_FLAG_GONE flag.

<title>kprobes: Skip clearing aggrprobe's post_handler in kprobe-on-ftrace case</title>

<id>5dd7caf0bdc5d0bae7cf9776b4d739fb09bd5ebb</id>
<content type='text'>
In __unregister_kprobe_top(), if the currently unregistered probe has
post_handler but other child probes of the aggrprobe do not have
post_handler, the post_handler of the aggrprobe is cleared. If this is
a ftrace-based probe, there is a problem. In later calls to
disarm_kprobe(), we will use kprobe_ftrace_ops because post_handler is
NULL. But we're armed with kprobe_ipmodify_ops. This triggers a WARN in
__disarm_kprobe_ftrace() and may even cause use-after-free:

  Failed to disarm kprobe-ftrace at kernel_clone+0x0/0x3c0 (error -2)

   [...]

For the kprobe-on-ftrace case, we keep the post_handler setting to
identify this aggrprobe armed with kprobe_ipmodify_ops. This way we
can disarm it correctly.

The system call gate area counts as kernel text but trying
to install a kprobe in this area fails with an Oops later on.
To fix this explicitly disallow the gate area for kprobes.

Found by syzkaller with the following reproducer:
perf_event_open$cgroup(&amp;(0x7f00000001c0)={0x6, 0x80, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x80ffff, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, @perf_config_ext={0x0, 0xffffffffff600000}}, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x0, 0xffffffffffffffff, 0x0)

The assumption in __disable_kprobe() is wrong, and it could try to disarm
an already disarmed kprobe and fire the WARN_ONCE() below. [0]  We can
easily reproduce this issue.

1. Write 0 to /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled.

  # echo 0 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled

2. Run execsnoop.  At this time, one kprobe is disabled.

  # /usr/share/bcc/tools/execsnoop &amp;
  [1] 2460
  PCOMM            PID    PPID   RET ARGS

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/list
  ffffffff91345650  r  __x64_sys_execve+0x0    [FTRACE]
  ffffffff91345650  k  __x64_sys_execve+0x0    [DISABLED][FTRACE]

3. Write 1 to /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled, which changes
   kprobes_all_disarmed to false but does not arm the disabled kprobe.

  # echo 1 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/list
  ffffffff91345650  r  __x64_sys_execve+0x0    [FTRACE]
  ffffffff91345650  k  __x64_sys_execve+0x0    [DISABLED][FTRACE]

4. Kill execsnoop, when __disable_kprobe() calls disarm_kprobe() for the
   disabled kprobe and hits the WARN_ONCE() in __disarm_kprobe_ftrace().

  # fg
  /usr/share/bcc/tools/execsnoop
  ^C

Actually, WARN_ONCE() is fired twice, and __unregister_kprobe_top() misses
some cleanups and leaves the aggregated kprobe in the hash table.  Then,
__unregister_trace_kprobe() initialises tk-&gt;rp.kp.list and creates an
infinite loop like this.

  aggregated kprobe.list -&gt; kprobe.list -.
                                     ^    |
                                     '.__.'

In this situation, these commands fall into the infinite loop and result
in RCU stall or soft lockup.

  cat /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/list : show_kprobe_addr() enters into the
                                       infinite loop with RCU.

  /usr/share/bcc/tools/execsnoop : warn_kprobe_rereg() holds kprobe_mutex,
                                   and __get_valid_kprobe() is stuck in
				   the loop.

To avoid the issue, make sure we don't call disarm_kprobe() for disabled
kprobes.

kernel_text_address() treats ftrace_trampoline, kprobe_insn_slot
and bpf_text_address as valid kprobe addresses - which is not ideal.

These text areas are removable and changeable without any notification
to kprobes, and probing on them can trigger unexpected behavior:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/7/26/1148

Considering that jump_label and static_call text are already
forbiden to probe, kernel_text_address() should be replaced with
core_kernel_text() and is_module_text_address() to check other text
areas which are unsafe to kprobe.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "The majority of the changes are for fixes and clean ups.

  Notable changes:

   - Rework trace event triggers code to be easier to interact with.

   - Support for embedding bootconfig with the kernel (as suppose to
     having it embedded in initram). This is useful for embedded boards
     without initram disks.

   - Speed up boot by parallelizing the creation of tracefs files.

   - Allow absolute ring buffer timestamps handle timestamps that use
     more than 59 bits.

   - Added new tracing clock "TAI" (International Atomic Time)

   - Have weak functions show up in available_filter_function list as:
     __ftrace_invalid_address___&lt;invalid-offset&gt; instead of using the
     name of the function before it"

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "The majority of the changes are for fixes and clean ups.

  Notable changes:

   - Rework trace event triggers code to be easier to interact with.

   - Support for embedding bootconfig with the kernel (as suppose to
     having it embedded in initram). This is useful for embedded boards
     without initram disks.

   - Speed up boot by parallelizing the creation of tracefs files.

   - Allow absolute ring buffer timestamps handle timestamps that use
     more than 59 bits.

   - Added new tracing clock "TAI" (International Atomic Time)

   - Have weak functions show up in available_filter_function list as:
     __ftrace_invalid_address___&lt;invalid-offset&gt; instead of using the
     name of the function before it"
