kprobes: Disable the jprobes APIs

2017-10-20T09:02:29Z

Disable the jprobes APIs and comment out the jprobes API function code. This is in preparation of removing all jprobes related code (including kprobe's break_handler). Nowadays ftrace and other tracing features are mature enough to replace jprobes use-cases. Users can safely use ftrace and perf probe etc. for their use cases.

kprobes: Use synchronize_rcu_tasks() for optprobe with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y

2017-10-20T07:45:15Z

We want to wait for all potentially preempted kprobes trampoline execution to have completed. This guarantees that any freed trampoline memory is not in use by any task in the system anymore. synchronize_rcu_tasks() gives such a guarantee, so use it. Also, this guarantees to wait for all potentially preempted tasks on the instructions which will be replaced with a jump. Since this becomes a problem only when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, enable CONFIG_TASKS_RCU=y for synchronize_rcu_tasks() in that case. Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Acked-by: Paul E.

Revert "kprobes: Warn if optprobe handler tries to change execution path"

2017-10-18T13:21:35Z

This reverts commit: e863d539614641 ("kprobes: Warn if optprobe handler tries to change execution path") On PowerPC, we place a probe at kretprobe_trampoline to catch function returns and with CONFIG_OPTPROBES=y, this probe gets optimized. This works for us due to the way we handle the optprobe as described in commit: 762df10bad6954 ("powerpc/kprobes: Optimize kprobe in kretprobe_trampoline()") With the above commit, we end up with a warning. As such, revert this change. Reported-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Naveen N.

kprobes: Warn if optprobe handler tries to change execution path

2017-09-28T07:23:04Z

Warn if optprobe handler tries to change execution path. As described in Documentation/kprobes.txt, with optprobe user handler can not change instruction pointer. In that case user must avoid optimizing the kprobes by setting post_handler or break_handler.

kprobes/x86: Make insn buffer always ROX and use text_poke()

2017-09-28T07:23:03Z

Make insn buffer always ROX and use text_poke() to write the copied instructions instead of set_memory_*(). This makes instruction buffer stronger against other kernel subsystems because there is no window time to modify the buffer.

kprobes: Simplify register_jprobes()

2017-07-08T09:05:34Z

Re-factor jprobe registration functions as the current version is getting too unwieldy. Move the actual jprobe registration to register_jprobe() and re-organize code accordingly.

Merge branch 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

2017-07-04T01:08:06Z

Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner: "This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code. The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks. The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and establishes full lockdep coverage that way. The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the probability was low enough to hide them away." * 'smp-hotplug-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (37 commits) cpu/hotplug: Constify attribute_group structures powerpc: Only obtain cpu_hotplug_lock if called by rtasd ARM/hw_breakpoint: Fix possible recursive locking for arch_hw_breakpoint_init cpu/hotplug: Remove unused check_for_tasks() function perf/core: Don't release cred_guard_mutex if not taken cpuhotplug: Link lock stacks for hotplug callbacks acpi/processor: Prevent cpu hotplug deadlock sched: Provide is_percpu_thread() helper cpu/hotplug: Convert hotplug locking to percpu rwsem s390: Prevent hotplug rwsem recursion arm: Prevent hotplug rwsem recursion arm64: Prevent cpu hotplug rwsem recursion kprobes: Cure hotplug lock ordering issues jump_label: Reorder hotplug lock and jump_label_lock perf/tracing/cpuhotplug: Fix locking order ACPI/processor: Use cpu_hotplug_disable() instead of get_online_cpus() PCI: Replace the racy recursion prevention PCI: Use cpu_hotplug_disable() instead of get_online_cpus() perf/x86/intel: Drop get_online_cpus() in intel_snb_check_microcode() x86/perf: Drop EXPORT of perf_check_microcode ...

kprobes/x86: Fix to set RWX bits correctly before releasing trampoline

2017-05-27T02:37:00Z

Fix kprobes to set(recover) RWX bits correctly on trampoline buffer before releasing it. Releasing readonly page to module_memfree() crash the kernel. Without this fix, if kprobes user register a bunch of kprobes in function body (since kprobes on function entry usually use ftrace) and unregister it, kernel hits a BUG and crash.
