Add a test case for stacktrace from kretprobe handler and nested kretprobe handlers. This test checks both of stack trace inside kretprobe handler and stack trace from pt_regs. Those stack trace must include actual function return address instead of kretprobe trampoline. The nested kretprobe stacktrace test checks whether the unwinder can correctly unwind the call frame on the stack which has been modified by the kretprobe. Since the stacktrace on kretprobe is correctly fixed only on x86, this introduces a meta kconfig ARCH_CORRECT_STACKTRACE_ON_KRETPROBE which tells user that the stacktrace on kretprobe is correct or not. The test results will be shown like below; TAP version 14 1..1 # Subtest: kprobes_test 1..6 ok 1 - test_kprobe ok 2 - test_kprobes ok 3 - test_kretprobe ok 4 - test_kretprobes ok 5 - test_stacktrace_on_kretprobe ok 6 - test_stacktrace_on_nested_kretprobe # kprobes_test: pass:6 fail:0 skip:0 total:6 # Totals: pass:6 fail:0 skip:0 total:6 ok 1 - kprobes_test Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/163516211244.604541.18350507860972214415.stgit@devnote2Signed-off-by: -

Using the linker script to fix an issue where some archs call the function tracer with just the ip (instruction pointer) and pip (parent instruction pointer) where as more up to date archs also pass in the associated ftrace_ops and the ftrace_regs pointer, the generic code will be called either with two parameters or four. To avoid any C undefined behavior of calling two parameters to four or four to two parameter function, two functions are created, where a preprocessor macro uses the one that matches the architecture. As the function pointers for them may be different, a typecast is used. But this triggers issues with newer compilers that will fail due to -Werror. A linker trick is now used to map the generic function to the function that is used (note the generic function is only used to set the default function callback). The linker trick defines ftrace_ops_list_func (the generic function) to arch_ftrace_ops_list_func (the arch defined one). Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200617165616.52241bde@oasis.local.home/ But this fails sh arch because their linker script is included in their compressed image that does not define arch_ftrace_ops_list_func at all sh4-linux-ld:arch/sh/boot/compressed/../../kernel/vmlinux.lds:32: undefined symbol `arch_ftrace_ops_list_func' referenced in expression Included a stub by that name in the misc.c to allow the code to compile and link, even though it's not used.

queue_full_warning is a pointer, so it is wrong to use sizeof to calculate the number of characters of the string it points to. The effect is that we only print out the first few characters of the warning string. The correct way is to use strlen(). We don't need to add 1 to the strlen() because we don't want to write the terminating null character to stdout.

Since the kretprobe replaces the function return address with the kretprobe_trampoline on the stack, arm unwinder shows it instead of the correct return address. This finds the correct return address from the per-task kretprobe_instances list and verify it is in between the caller fp and callee fp. Note that this supports both GCC and clang if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y and CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND=n. For the ARM unwinder, this is still not working correctly. Signed-off-by:

Currently kretprobe on ARM just fills r0-r11 of pt_regs, but that is not enough for the stacktrace. Moreover, from the user kretprobe handler, stacktrace needs a frame pointer on the __kretprobe_trampoline. This adds a frame pointer on __kretprobe_trampoline for both gcc and clang case. Those have different frame pointer so we need different but similar stack on pt_regs. Gcc makes the frame pointer (fp) to point the 'pc' address of the {fp, ip (=sp), lr, pc}, this means {r11, r13, r14, r15}. Thus if we save the r11 (fp) on pt_regs->r12, we can make this set on the end of pt_regs. On the other hand, Clang makes the frame pointer to point the 'fp' address of {fp, lr} on stack. Since the next to the pt_regs->lr is pt_regs->sp, I reused the pair of pt_regs->fp and pt_regs->ip. So this stores the 'lr' on pt_regs->ip and make the fp to point pt_regs->fp. For both cases, saves __kretprobe_trampoline address to pt_regs->lr, so that the stack tracer can identify this frame pointer has been made by the __kretprobe_trampoline. Note that if the CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not set, this keeps fp as is. Signed-off-by:Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Signed-off-by:

Currently the stacktrace on clang compiled arm kernel uses the 'lr' register to find the first frame address from pt_regs. However, that is wrong after calling another function, because the 'lr' register is used by 'bl' instruction and never be recovered. As same as gcc arm kernel, directly use the frame pointer (r11) of the pt_regs to find the first frame address. Note that this fixes kretprobe stacktrace issue only with CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER=y. For the CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM, we need another fix. Signed-off-by:

Since the kretprobe replaces the function return address with the kretprobe_trampoline on the stack, stack unwinder shows it instead of the correct return address. This checks whether the next return address is the __kretprobe_trampoline(), and if so, try to find the correct return address from the kretprobe instance list. For this purpose this adds 'kr_cur' loop cursor to memorize the current kretprobe instance. With this fix, now arm64 can enable CONFIG_ARCH_CORRECT_STACKTRACE_ON_KRETPROBE, and pass the kprobe self tests. Signed-off-by:

Make a frame pointer (make the x29 register points the address of pt_regs->regs[29]) on __kretprobe_trampoline. This frame pointer will be used by the stacktracer when it is called from the kretprobe handlers. In this case, the stack tracer will unwind stack to trampoline_probe_handler() and find the next frame pointer in the stack frame of the __kretprobe_trampoline(). Signed-off-by:

Record the frame pointer instead of stack address with kretprobe instance as the identifier on the instance list. Since arm64 always enable CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER, we can use the actual frame pointer (x29). This will allow the stacktrace code to find the original return address from the FP alone. Signed-off-by:

clang started warning about excessive stack usage in hist_trigger_print_key() kernel/trace/trace_events_hist.c:4723:13: error: stack frame size (1336) exceeds limit (1024) in function 'hist_trigger_print_key' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than] The problem is that there are two 512-byte arrays on the stack if hist_trigger_stacktrace_print() gets inlined. I don't think this has changed in the past five years, but something probably changed the inlining decisions made by the compiler, so the problem is now made more obvious. Rather than printing the symbol names into separate buffers, it seems we can simply use the special %ps format string modifier to print the pointers symbolically and get rid of both buffers. Marking hist_trigger_stacktrace_print() would be a simpler way of avoiding the warning, but that would not address the excessive stack usage.

Currently to switch a set of "multi" direct trampolines from one trampoline to another, a full shutdown of the current set needs to be done, followed by an update to what trampoline the direct callers would call, and then re-enabling the callers. This leaves a time when the functions will not be calling anything, and events may be missed. Instead, use a trick to allow all the functions with direct trampolines attached will always call either the new or old trampoline while the switch is happening. To do this, first attach a "dummy" callback via ftrace to all the functions that the current direct trampoline is attached to. This will cause the functions to call the "list func" instead of the direct trampoline. The list function will call the direct trampoline "helper" that will set the function it should call as it returns back to the ftrace trampoline. At this moment, the direct caller descriptor can safely update the direct call trampoline. The list function will pick either the new or old function (depending on the memory coherency model of the architecture). Now removing the dummy function from each of the locations of the direct trampoline caller, will put back the direct call, but now to the new trampoline.

We don't need special hook for graph tracer entry point, but instead we can use graph_ops::func function to install the return_hooker. This moves the graph tracing setup _before_ the direct trampoline prepares the stack, so the return_hooker will be called when the direct trampoline is finished. This simplifies the code, because we don't need to take into account the direct trampoline setup when preparing the graph tracer hooker and we can allow function graph tracer on entries registered with direct trampoline.
