[ Upstream commit 80f0d631dcc76ee1b7755bfca1d8417d91d71414 ]

The function create_field_var() allocates memory for 'val' through
create_hist_field() inside parse_atom(), and for 'var' through
create_var(), which in turn allocates var-&gt;type and var-&gt;var.name
internally. Simply calling kfree() to release these structures will
result in memory leaks.

Use destroy_hist_field() to properly free 'val', and explicitly release
the memory of var-&gt;type and var-&gt;var.name before freeing 'var' itself.

There is a critical race condition in kprobe initialization that can lead to
NULL pointer dereference and kernel crash.

Race Condition Analysis:

The race occurs between kprobe activation and perf_events initialization:

  CPU0                                    CPU1
  ====                                    ====
  perf_kprobe_init
    perf_trace_event_init
      tp_event-&gt;perf_events = list;(1)
      tp_event-&gt;class-&gt;reg (2)← KPROBE ACTIVE
                                          Debug exception triggers
                                          ...
                                          kprobe_dispatcher
                                            kprobe_perf_func (tk-&gt;tp.flags &amp; TP_FLAG_PROFILE)
                                              head = this_cpu_ptr(call-&gt;perf_events)(3)
                                              (perf_events is still NULL)

Problem:
1. CPU0 executes (1) assigning tp_event-&gt;perf_events = list
2. CPU0 executes (2) enabling kprobe functionality via class-&gt;reg()
3. CPU1 triggers and reaches kprobe_dispatcher
4. CPU1 checks TP_FLAG_PROFILE - condition passes (step 2 completed)
5. CPU1 calls kprobe_perf_func() and crashes at (3) because
   call-&gt;perf_events is still NULL

CPU1 sees that kprobe functionality is enabled but does not see that
perf_events has been assigned.

Add pairing read and write memory barriers to guarantee that if CPU1
sees that kprobe functionality is enabled, it must also see that
perf_events has been assigned.

<title>ftrace: Fix potential warning in trace_printk_seq during ftrace_dump</title>

[ Upstream commit 4013aef2ced9b756a410f50d12df9ebe6a883e4a ]

When calling ftrace_dump_one() concurrently with reading trace_pipe,
a WARN_ON_ONCE() in trace_printk_seq() can be triggered due to a race
condition.

The issue occurs because:

CPU0 (ftrace_dump)                              CPU1 (reader)
echo z &gt; /proc/sysrq-trigger

!trace_empty(&amp;iter)
trace_iterator_reset(&amp;iter) &lt;- len = size = 0
                                                cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe
trace_find_next_entry_inc(&amp;iter)
  __find_next_entry
    ring_buffer_empty_cpu &lt;- all empty
  return NULL

trace_printk_seq(&amp;iter.seq)
  WARN_ON_ONCE(s-&gt;seq.len &gt;= s-&gt;seq.size)

In the context between trace_empty() and trace_find_next_entry_inc()
during ftrace_dump, the ring buffer data was consumed by other readers.
This caused trace_find_next_entry_inc to return NULL, failing to populate
`iter.seq`. At this point, due to the prior trace_iterator_reset, both
`iter.seq.len` and `iter.seq.size` were set to 0. Since they are equal,
the WARN_ON_ONCE condition is triggered.

Move the trace_printk_seq() into the if block that checks to make sure the
return value of trace_find_next_entry_inc() is non-NULL in
ftrace_dump_one(), ensuring the 'iter.seq' is properly populated before
subsequent operations.

  WARN_ON_ONCE(s-&gt;seq.len &gt;= s-&gt;seq.size)

In the context between trace_empty() and trace_find_next_entry_inc()
during ftrace_dump, the ring buffer data was consumed by other readers.
This caused trace_find_next_entry_inc to return NULL, failing to populate
`iter.seq`. At this point, due to the prior trace_iterator_reset, both
`iter.seq.len` and `iter.seq.size` were set to 0. Since they are equal,
the WARN_ON_ONCE condition is triggered.

Move the trace_printk_seq() into the if block that checks to make sure the
return value of trace_find_next_entry_inc() is non-NULL in
ftrace_dump_one(), ensuring the 'iter.seq' is properly populated before
subsequent operations.

<title>tracing: Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace event</title>

[ Upstream commit b5e8acc14dcb314a9b61ff19dcd9fdd0d88f70df ]

When a module is loaded, it adds trace events defined by the module. It
may also need to modify the modules trace printk formats to replace enum
names with their values.

If two modules are loaded at the same time, the adding of the event to the
ftrace_events list can corrupt the walking of the list in the code that is
modifying the printk format strings and crash the kernel.

The addition of the event should take the trace_event_sem for write while
it adds the new event.

Also add a lockdep_assert_held() on that semaphore in
__trace_add_event_dirs() as it iterates the list.

<title>ftrace: Also allocate and copy hash for reading of filter files</title>

commit bfb336cf97df7b37b2b2edec0f69773e06d11955 upstream.

Currently the reader of set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace just adds
the pointer to the global tracer hash to its iterator. Unlike the writer
that allocates a copy of the hash, the reader keeps the pointer to the
filter hashes. This is problematic because this pointer is static across
function calls that release the locks that can update the global tracer
hashes. This can cause UAF and similar bugs.

Allocate and copy the hash for reading the filter files like it is done
for the writers. This not only fixes UAF bugs, but also makes the code a
bit simpler as it doesn't have to differentiate when to free the
iterator's hash between writers and readers.

commit f914b52c379c12288b7623bb814d0508dbe7481d upstream.

The following issue happens with a buggy module:

The above issue may happen as follows:
(1) Add kprobe tracepoint;
(2) insmod test.ko;
(3)  Module triggers ftrace disabled;
(4) rmmod test.ko;
(5) cat /proc/kallsyms; --&gt; Will trigger UAF as test.ko already removed;
ftrace_mod_get_kallsym()
...
strscpy(module_name, mod_map-&gt;mod-&gt;name, MODULE_NAME_LEN);
...

The problem is when a module triggers an issue with ftrace and
sets ftrace_disable. The ftrace_disable is set when an anomaly is
discovered and to prevent any more damage, ftrace stops all text
modification. The issue that happened was that the ftrace_disable stops
more than just the text modification.

When a module is loaded, its init functions can also be traced. Because
kallsyms deletes the init functions after a module has loaded, ftrace
saves them when the module is loaded and function tracing is enabled. This
allows the output of the function trace to show the init function names
instead of just their raw memory addresses.

When a module is removed, ftrace_release_mod() is called, and if
ftrace_disable is set, it just returns without doing anything more. The
problem here is that it leaves the mod_list still around and if kallsyms
is called, it will call into this code and access the module memory that
has already been freed as it will return:

  strscpy(module_name, mod_map-&gt;mod-&gt;name, MODULE_NAME_LEN);

Where the "mod" no longer exists and triggers a UAF bug.

<title>tracing: Fix compilation warning on arm32</title>

commit 2fbdb6d8e03b70668c0876e635506540ae92ab05 upstream.

On arm32, size_t is defined to be unsigned int, while PAGE_SIZE is
unsigned long. This hence triggers a compilation warning as min()
asserts the type of two operands to be equal. Casting PAGE_SIZE to size_t
solves this issue and works on other target architectures as well.

Compilation warning details:

kernel/trace/trace.c: In function 'tracing_splice_read_pipe':
./include/linux/minmax.h:20:28: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
  (!!(sizeof((typeof(x) *)1 == (typeof(y) *)1)))

commit 42ea22e754ba4f2b86f8760ca27f6f71da2d982c upstream.

When the kernel contains a large number of functions that can be traced,
the loop in ftrace_graph_set_hash() may take a lot of time to execute.
This may trigger the softlockup watchdog.

Add cond_resched() within the loop to allow the kernel to remain
responsive even when processing a large number of functions.

This matches the cond_resched() that is used in other locations of the
code that iterates over all functions that can be traced.
