linux-stable.git/kernel/trace/ftrace.c, branch v4.9.271 Linux kernel stable tree ftrace: Handle commands when closing set_ftrace_filter file 2021-05-22T08:40:19+00:00 Steven Rostedt (VMware) rostedt@goodmis.org 2021-05-05T14:38:24+00:00 e9cb474de7ff7a970c2a3951c12ec7e3113c0c35 commit 8c9af478c06bb1ab1422f90d8ecbc53defd44bc3 upstream. # echo switch_mm:traceoff > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_filter will cause switch_mm to stop tracing by the traceoff command. # echo -n switch_mm:traceoff > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_filter does nothing. The reason is that the parsing in the write function only processes commands if it finished parsing (there is white space written after the command). That's to handle: write(fd, "switch_mm:", 10); write(fd, "traceoff", 8); cases, where the command is broken over multiple writes. The problem is if the file descriptor is closed, then the write call is not processed, and the command needs to be processed in the release code. The release code can handle matching of functions, but does not handle commands.

commit 8c9af478c06bb1ab1422f90d8ecbc53defd44bc3 upstream.

 # echo switch_mm:traceoff > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

will cause switch_mm to stop tracing by the traceoff command.

 # echo -n switch_mm:traceoff > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

does nothing.

The reason is that the parsing in the write function only processes
commands if it finished parsing (there is white space written after the
command). That's to handle:

 write(fd, "switch_mm:", 10);
 write(fd, "traceoff", 8);

cases, where the command is broken over multiple writes.

The problem is if the file descriptor is closed, then the write call is
not processed, and the command needs to be processed in the release code.
The release code can handle matching of functions, but does not handle
commands.

commit 7e0a9220467dbcfdc5bc62825724f3e52e50ab31 upstream.

On some archs, the idle task can call into cpu_suspend(). The cpu_suspend()
will disable or pause function graph tracing, as there's some paths in
bringing down the CPU that can have issues with its return address being
modified. The task_struct structure has a "tracing_graph_pause" atomic
counter, that when set to something other than zero, the function graph
tracer will not modify the return address.

The problem is that the tracing_graph_pause counter is initialized when the
function graph tracer is enabled. This can corrupt the counter for the idle
task if it is suspended in these architectures.

   CPU 1				CPU 2
   -----				-----
  do_idle()
    cpu_suspend()
      pause_graph_tracing()
          task_struct->tracing_graph_pause++ (0 -> 1)

				start_graph_tracing()
				  for_each_online_cpu(cpu) {
				    ftrace_graph_init_idle_task(cpu)
				      task-struct->tracing_graph_pause = 0 (1 -> 0)

      unpause_graph_tracing()
          task_struct->tracing_graph_pause-- (0 -> -1)

The above should have gone from 1 to zero, and enabled function graph
tracing again. But instead, it is set to -1, which keeps it disabled.

There's no reason that the field tracing_graph_pause on the task_struct can
not be initialized at boot up.

ftrace: Fix updating FTRACE_FL_TRAMP 2020-12-11T12:38:00+00:00 Naveen N.

On powerpc, kprobe-direct.tc triggered FTRACE_WARN_ON() in ftrace_get_addr_new() followed by the below message: Bad trampoline accounting at: 000000004222522f (wake_up_process+0xc/0x20) (f0000001) The set of steps leading to this involved: - modprobe ftrace-direct-too - enable_probe - modprobe ftrace-direct - rmmod ftrace-direct <-- trigger The problem turned out to be that we were not updating flags in the ftrace record properly. From the above message about the trampoline accounting being bad, it can be seen that the ftrace record still has FTRACE_FL_TRAMP set though ftrace-direct module is going away. This happens because we are checking if any ftrace_ops has the FTRACE_FL_TRAMP flag set _before_ updating the filter hash. The fix for this is to look for any _other_ ftrace_ops that also needs FTRACE_FL_TRAMP.

On powerpc, kprobe-direct.tc triggered FTRACE_WARN_ON() in
ftrace_get_addr_new() followed by the below message:
  Bad trampoline accounting at: 000000004222522f (wake_up_process+0xc/0x20) (f0000001)

The set of steps leading to this involved:
- modprobe ftrace-direct-too
- enable_probe
- modprobe ftrace-direct
- rmmod ftrace-direct <-- trigger

The problem turned out to be that we were not updating flags in the
ftrace record properly. From the above message about the trampoline
accounting being bad, it can be seen that the ftrace record still has
FTRACE_FL_TRAMP set though ftrace-direct module is going away. This
happens because we are checking if any ftrace_ops has the
FTRACE_FL_TRAMP flag set _before_ updating the filter hash.

The fix for this is to look for any _other_ ftrace_ops that also needs
FTRACE_FL_TRAMP.

ftrace: Move RCU is watching check after recursion check 2020-10-14T07:48:15+00:00 Steven Rostedt (VMware) rostedt@goodmis.org 2020-09-29T16:40:31+00:00 03170ea7eb98ac6cc334f7225e8f30e5cc7ddf18 commit b40341fad6cc2daa195f8090fd3348f18fff640a upstream. The first thing that the ftrace function callback helper functions should do is to check for recursion. Peter Zijlstra found that when "rcu_is_watching()" had its notrace removed, it caused perf function tracing to crash. This is because the call of rcu_is_watching() is tested before function recursion is checked and and if it is traced, it will cause an infinite recursion loop. rcu_is_watching() should still stay notrace, but to prevent this should never had crashed in the first place. The recursion prevention must be the first thing done in callback functions.

But we will get wrong ftrace_addr for module rec in ftrace_get_addr_new, because rec->flags has not been setup correctly. It can cause the callback function of a ftrace_ops has FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS to be called with pt_regs set to NULL.

tracing: Fix memory leak of instance function hash filters 2018-12-21T13:11:31+00:00 Steven Rostedt (VMware) rostedt@goodmis.org 2018-12-11T04:58:01+00:00 326c9e17c1202e820f221946e07d13cbf8c9f964 commit 2840f84f74035e5a535959d5f17269c69fa6edc5 upstream. The following commands will cause a memory leak: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # mkdir instances/foo # echo schedule > instance/foo/set_ftrace_filter # rmdir instances/foo The reason is that the hashes that hold the filters to set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace are not freed if they contain any data on the instance and the instance is removed.

commit 2840f84f74035e5a535959d5f17269c69fa6edc5 upstream.

The following commands will cause a memory leak:

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
 # mkdir instances/foo
 # echo schedule > instance/foo/set_ftrace_filter
 # rmdir instances/foo

The reason is that the hashes that hold the filters to set_ftrace_filter and
set_ftrace_notrace are not freed if they contain any data on the instance
and the instance is removed.

Found by kmemleak detector.
