<title>kprobes: Tell lockdep about kprobe nesting</title>

<content type='text'>
Since the kprobe handlers have protection that prohibits other handlers from
executing in other contexts (like if an NMI comes in while processing a
kprobe, and executes the same kprobe, it will get fail with a "busy"
return). Lockdep is unaware of this protection. Use lockdep's nesting api to
differentiate between locks taken in INT3 context and other context to
suppress the false warnings.

   - Support perf-style return probe ("SYMBOL%return") in kprobes and
     uprobes

   - Allow for kprobes to be enabled earlier in boot up

   - Added tracepoint helper function to allow testing if tracepoints
     are enabled in headers

   - Synthetic events can now have dynamic strings (variable length)

   - Various fixes and cleanups"

Pull static call support from Ingo Molnar:
 "This introduces static_call(), which is the idea of static_branch()
  applied to indirect function calls. Remove a data load (indirection)
  by modifying the text.

  They give the flexibility of function pointers, but with better
  performance. (This is especially important for cases where retpolines
  would otherwise be used, as retpolines can be pretty slow.)

  API overview:

      DECLARE_STATIC_CALL(name, func);
      DEFINE_STATIC_CALL(name, func);
      DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_NULL(name, typename);

      static_call(name)(args...);
      static_call_cond(name)(args...);
      static_call_update(name, func);

  x86 is supported via text patching, otherwise basic indirect calls are
  used, with function pointers.

  There's a second variant using inline code patching, inspired by
  jump-labels, implemented on x86 as well.

  The new APIs are utilized in the x86 perf code, a heavy user of
  function pointers, where static calls speed up the PMU handler by
  4.2% (!).

  The generic implementation is not really excercised on other
  architectures, outside of the trivial test_static_call_init()
  self-test"

Init kprobes feature in early_initcall as same as jump_label and
dynamic_debug does, so that we can use kprobes events in earlier
boot stage.

If a kprobe is marked as gone, we should not kill it again.  Otherwise, we
can disarm the kprobe more than once.  In that case, the statistics of
kprobe_ftrace_enabled can unbalance which can lead to that kprobe do not
work.

Since kprobe_event= cmdline option allows user to put kprobes on the
functions in initmem, kprobe has to make such probes gone after boot.
Currently the probes on the init functions in modules will be handled
by module callback, but the kernel init text isn't handled.
Without this, kprobes may access non-exist text area to disable or
remove it.

This is because the kill_kprobe() calls disarm_kprobe_ftrace() even
if the given probe is not enabled. In that case, ftrace_set_filter_ip()
fails because the given probe point is not registered to ftrace.

Fix to check the given (going) probe is enabled before invoking
disarm_kprobe_ftrace().

Commit:

  0cb2f1372baa ("kprobes: Fix NULL pointer dereference at kprobe_ftrace_handler")

fixed one bug but the underlying bugs are not completely fixed yet.

If we run a kprobe_module.tc of ftracetest, a warning triggers:

  # ./ftracetest test.d/kprobe/kprobe_module.tc
  === Ftrace unit tests ===
  [1] Kprobe dynamic event - probing module
  ...
   ------------[ cut here ]------------
   Failed to disarm kprobe-ftrace at trace_printk_irq_work+0x0/0x7e [trace_printk] (-2)
   WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 200 at kernel/kprobes.c:1091 __disarm_kprobe_ftrace.isra.0+0x7e/0xa0

This is because the kill_kprobe() calls disarm_kprobe_ftrace() even
if the given probe is not enabled. In that case, ftrace_set_filter_ip()
fails because the given probe point is not registered to ftrace.

Fix to check the given (going) probe is enabled before invoking
disarm_kprobe_ftrace().
