Due to an apparent copy-paste bug, the parisc implementation of
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() doesn't actually do anything.
It enables the (already-enabled) static key rather than disabling it.

The result is that after function graph tracing has been "disabled", any
subsequent (non-graph) function tracing will inadvertently also enable
the slow fgraph return address hijacking.

Several architectures support text patching, but they name the header
files that declare patching functions differently.

Make all such headers consistently named text-patching.h and add an empty
header in asm-generic for architectures that do not support text patching.

<title>kprobe/ftrace: bail out if ftrace was killed</title>
<updated>2024-05-15T22:23:30+00:00</updated>

<name>Stephen Brennan</name>
<email>stephen.s.brennan@oracle.com</email>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=1a7d0890dd4a502a202aaec792a6c04e6e049547'/>
<id>1a7d0890dd4a502a202aaec792a6c04e6e049547</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - kprobes: Restructured stack unwinder to show properly on x86 when a
   stack dump happens from a kretprobe callback.

 - Fix to bootconfig parsing

 - Have tracefs allow owner and group permissions by default (only
   denying others). There's been pressure to allow non root to tracefs
   in a controlled fashion, and using groups is probably the safest.

 - Bootconfig memory managament updates.

 - Bootconfig clean up to have the tools directory be less dependent on
   changes in the kernel tree.

 - Allow perf to be traced by function tracer.

 - Rewrite of function graph tracer to be a callback from the function
   tracer instead of having its own trampoline (this change will happen
   on an arch by arch basis, and currently only x86_64 implements it).

 - Allow multiple direct trampolines (bpf hooks to functions) be batched
   together in one synchronization.

 - Allow histogram triggers to add variables that can perform
   calculations against the event's fields.

 - Use the linker to determine architecture callbacks from the ftrace
   trampoline to allow for proper parameter prototypes and prevent
   warnings from the compiler.

 - Extend histogram triggers to key off of variables.

 - Have trace recursion use bit magic to determine preempt context over
   if branches.

 - Have trace recursion disable preemption as all use cases do anyway.

 - Added testing for verification of tracing utilities.

 - Various small clean ups and fixes.

This avoids using dereference_function_descriptor in the ftrace code
path, and it's also faster.

With DYNAMIC_FTRACE, we need to implement ftrace_update_trace_func
and not call ftrace_trace_function() directly, as ftrace doesn't
expect calls to this function during code patching.

<title>ftrace: disable preemption when recursion locked</title>

As the documentation explained, ftrace_test_recursion_trylock()
and ftrace_test_recursion_unlock() were supposed to disable and
enable preemption properly, however currently this work is done
outside of the function, which could be missing by mistake.

And since the internal using of trace_test_and_set_recursion()
and trace_clear_recursion() also require preemption disabled, we
can just merge the logical.

This patch will make sure the preemption has been disabled when
trace_test_and_set_recursion() return bit &gt;= 0, and
trace_clear_recursion() will enable the preemption if previously
enabled.
