[ Upstream commit 3572bd5689b0812b161b40279e39ca5b66d73e88 ]

The kprobes and synth event generation test modules add events and lock
(get a reference) those event file reference in module init function,
and unlock and delete it in module exit function. This is because those
are designed for playing as modules.

If we make those modules as built-in, those events are left locked in the
kernel, and never be removed. This causes kprobe event self-test failure
as below.

To avoid these issues, build these tests only as modules.

<title>kprobe/ftrace: bail out if ftrace was killed</title>

[ Upstream commit 1a7d0890dd4a502a202aaec792a6c04e6e049547 ]

If an error happens in ftrace, ftrace_kill() will prevent disarming
kprobes. Eventually, the ftrace_ops associated with the kprobes will be
freed, yet the kprobes will still be active, and when triggered, they
will use the freed memory, likely resulting in a page fault and panic.

This behavior can be reproduced quite easily, by creating a kprobe and
then triggering a ftrace_kill(). For simplicity, we can simulate an
ftrace error with a kernel module like [1]:

[1]: https://github.com/brenns10/kernel_stuff/tree/master/ftrace_killer

  sudo perf probe --add commit_creds
  sudo perf trace -e probe:commit_creds
  # In another terminal
  make
  sudo insmod ftrace_killer.ko  # calls ftrace_kill(), simulating bug
  # Back to perf terminal
  # ctrl-c
  sudo perf probe --del commit_creds

After a short period, a page fault and panic would occur as the kprobe
continues to execute and uses the freed ftrace_ops. While ftrace_kill()
is supposed to be used only in extreme circumstances, it is invoked in
FTRACE_WARN_ON() and so there are many places where an unexpected bug
could be triggered, yet the system may continue operating, possibly
without the administrator noticing. If ftrace_kill() does not panic the
system, then we should do everything we can to continue operating,
rather than leave a ticking time bomb.

commit 46ba0e49b64232adac35a2bc892f1710c5b0fb7f upstream.

Current implementation of PID filtering logic for multi-uprobes in
uprobe_prog_run() is filtering down to exact *thread*, while the intent
for PID filtering it to filter by *process* instead. The check in
uprobe_prog_run() also differs from the analogous one in
uprobe_multi_link_filter() for some reason. The latter is correct,
checking task-&gt;mm, not the task itself.

Fix the check in uprobe_prog_run() to perform the same task-&gt;mm check.

While doing this, we also update get_pid_task() use to use PIDTYPE_TGID
type of lookup, given the intent is to get a representative task of an
entire process. This doesn't change behavior, but seems more logical. It
would hold task group leader task now, not any random thread task.

Last but not least, given multi-uprobe support is half-broken due to
this PID filtering logic (depending on whether PID filtering is
important or not), we need to make it easy for user space consumers
(including libbpf) to easily detect whether PID filtering logic was
already fixed.

We do it here by adding an early check on passed pid parameter. If it's
negative (and so has no chance of being a valid PID), we return -EINVAL.
Previous behavior would eventually return -ESRCH ("No process found"),
given there can't be any process with negative PID. This subtle change
won't make any practical change in behavior, but will allow applications
to detect PID filtering fixes easily. Libbpf fixes take advantage of
this in the next patch.

[ Upstream commit e569eb34970281438e2b48a3ef11c87459fcfbcb ]

btf_find_struct_member() might return NULL or an error via the
ERR_PTR() macro. However, its caller in parse_btf_field() only checks
for the NULL condition. Fix this by using IS_ERR() and returning the
error up the stack.

[ Upstream commit bd125a084091396f3e796bb3dc009940d9771811 ]

When the ABI was updated to prevent same name w/different args, it
missed an important corner case when fields don't end with a space.
Typically, space is used for fields to help separate them, like
"u8 field1; u8 field2". If no spaces are used, like
"u8 field1;u8 field2", then the parsing works for the first time.
However, the match check fails on a subsequent register, leading to
confusion.

This is because the match check uses argv_split() and assumes that all
fields will be split upon the space. When spaces are used, we get back
{ "u8", "field1;" }, without spaces we get back { "u8", "field1;u8" }.
This causes a mismatch, and the user program gets back -EADDRINUSE.

Add a method to detect this case before calling argv_split(). If found
force a space after the field separator character ';'. This ensures all
cases work properly for matching.

With this fix, the following are all treated as matching:
u8 field1;u8 field2
u8 field1; u8 field2
u8 field1;\tu8 field2
u8 field1;\nu8 field2

commit c2274b908db05529980ec056359fae916939fdaa upstream.

The reader code in rb_get_reader_page() swaps a new reader page into the
ring buffer by doing cmpxchg on old-&gt;list.prev-&gt;next to point it to the
new page. Following that, if the operation is successful,
old-&gt;list.next-&gt;prev gets updated too. This means the underlying
doubly-linked list is temporarily inconsistent, page-&gt;prev-&gt;next or
page-&gt;next-&gt;prev might not be equal back to page for some page in the
ring buffer.

The resize operation in ring_buffer_resize() can be invoked in parallel.
It calls rb_check_pages() which can detect the described inconsistency
and stop further tracing:

Note that ring_buffer_resize() calls rb_check_pages() only if the parent
trace_buffer has recording disabled. Recent commit d78ab792705c
("tracing: Stop current tracer when resizing buffer") causes that it is
now always the case which makes it more likely to experience this issue.

The window to hit this race is nonetheless very small. To help
reproducing it, one can add a delay loop in rb_get_reader_page():

 ret = rb_head_page_replace(reader, cpu_buffer-&gt;reader_page);
 if (!ret)
 	goto spin;
 for (unsigned i = 0; i &lt; 1U &lt;&lt; 26; i++)  /* inserted delay loop */
 	__asm__ __volatile__ ("" : : : "memory");
 rb_list_head(reader-&gt;list.next)-&gt;prev = &amp;cpu_buffer-&gt;reader_page-&gt;list;

.. and then run the following commands on the target system:

 echo 1 &gt; /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/enable
 while true; do
 	echo 16 &gt; /sys/kernel/tracing/buffer_size_kb; sleep 0.1
 	echo 8 &gt; /sys/kernel/tracing/buffer_size_kb; sleep 0.1
 done &amp;
 while true; do
 	for i in /sys/kernel/tracing/per_cpu/*; do
 		timeout 0.1 cat $i/trace_pipe; sleep 0.2
 	done
 done

To fix the problem, make sure ring_buffer_resize() doesn't invoke
rb_check_pages() concurrently with a reader operating on the same
ring_buffer_per_cpu by taking its cpu_buffer-&gt;reader_lock.

Note that ring_buffer_resize() calls rb_check_pages() only if the parent
trace_buffer has recording disabled. Recent commit d78ab792705c
("tracing: Stop current tracer when resizing buffer") causes that it is
now always the case which makes it more likely to experience this issue.

The window to hit this race is nonetheless very small. To help
reproducing it, one can add a delay loop in rb_get_reader_page():

 ret = rb_head_page_replace(reader, cpu_buffer-&gt;reader_page);
 if (!ret)
 	goto spin;
 for (unsigned i = 0; i &lt; 1U &lt;&lt; 26; i++)  /* inserted delay loop */
 	__asm__ __volatile__ ("" : : : "memory");
 rb_list_head(reader-&gt;list.next)-&gt;prev = &amp;cpu_buffer-&gt;reader_page-&gt;list;

.. and then run the following commands on the target system:

 echo 1 &gt; /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/enable
 while true; do
 	echo 16 &gt; /sys/kernel/tracing/buffer_size_kb; sleep 0.1
 	echo 8 &gt; /sys/kernel/tracing/buffer_size_kb; sleep 0.1
 done &amp;
 while true; do
 	for i in /sys/kernel/tracing/per_cpu/*; do
 		timeout 0.1 cat $i/trace_pipe; sleep 0.2
 	done
 done

To fix the problem, make sure ring_buffer_resize() doesn't invoke
rb_check_pages() concurrently with a reader operating on the same
ring_buffer_per_cpu by taking its cpu_buffer-&gt;reader_lock.

commit e60b613df8b6253def41215402f72986fee3fc8d upstream.

KASAN reports a bug:

  BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ftrace_location+0x90/0x120
  Read of size 8 at addr ffff888141d40010 by task insmod/424

   do_syscall_64+0x68/0x140
   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x71/0x79

The root cause is that, in lookup_rec(), ftrace record of some address
is being searched in ftrace pages of some module, but those ftrace pages
at the same time is being freed in ftrace_release_mod() as the
corresponding module is being deleted:

           CPU1                       |      CPU2
  register_kprobes() {                | delete_module() {
    check_kprobe_address_safe() {     |
      arch_check_ftrace_location() {  |
        ftrace_location() {           |
          lookup_rec() // USE!        |   ftrace_release_mod() // Free!

To fix this issue:
  1. Hold rcu lock as accessing ftrace pages in ftrace_location_range();
  2. Use ftrace_location_range() instead of lookup_rec() in
     ftrace_location();
  3. Call synchronize_rcu() before freeing any ftrace pages both in
     ftrace_process_locs()/ftrace_release_mod()/ftrace_free_mem().

Pull probes fix from Masami Hiramatsu:

 - probe-events: Fix memory leak in parsing probe argument.

   There is a memory leak (forget to free an allocated buffer) in a
   memory allocation failure path. Fix it to jump to the correct error
   handling code.
