extable: Add function to search only kernel exception table

2019-08-21T12:23:48Z

Certain architecture specific operating modes (e.g., in powerpc machine check handler that is unable to access vmalloc memory), the search_exception_tables cannot be called because it also searches the module exception tables if entry is not found in the kernel exception table.

extable: Make init_kernel_text() global

2018-02-21T15:54:06Z

Convert init_kernel_text() to a global function and use it in a few places instead of manually comparing _sinittext and _einittext. Note that kallsyms.h has a very similar function called is_kernel_inittext(), but its end check is inclusive. I'm not sure whether that's intentional behavior, so I didn't touch it.

kprobes, x86/alternatives: Use text_mutex to protect smp_alt_modules

2017-11-07T11:20:09Z

We use alternatives_text_reserved() to check if the address is in the fixed pieces of alternative reserved, but the problem is that we don't hold the smp_alt mutex when call this function. So the list traversal may encounter a deleted list_head if another path is doing alternatives_smp_module_del(). One solution is that we can hold smp_alt mutex before call this function, but the difficult point is that the callers of this functions, arch_prepare_kprobe() and arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe(), are called inside the text_mutex. So we must hold smp_alt mutex before we go into these arch dependent code. But we can't now, the smp_alt mutex is the arch dependent part, only x86 has it. Maybe we can export another arch dependent callback to solve this. But there is a simpler way to handle this problem. We can reuse the text_mutex to protect smp_alt_modules instead of using another mutex. And all the arch dependent checks of kprobes are inside the text_mutex, so it's safe now.

extable: Enable RCU if it is not watching in kernel_text_address()

2017-09-23T20:50:20Z

If kernel_text_address() is called when RCU is not watching, it can cause an RCU bug because is_module_text_address(), the is_kprobe_*insn_slot() and is_bpf_text_address() functions require the use of RCU. Only enable RCU if it is not currently watching before it calls is_module_text_address(). The use of rcu_nmi_enter() is used to enable RCU because kernel_text_address() can happen pretty much anywhere (like an NMI), and even from within an NMI. It is called via save_stack_trace() that can be called by any WARN() or tracing function, which can happen while RCU is not watching (for example, going to or coming from idle, or during CPU take down or bring up).

extable: Consolidate *kernel_text_address() functions

2017-09-23T20:50:19Z

The functionality between kernel_text_address() and _kernel_text_address() is the same except that _kernel_text_address() does a little more (that function needs a rename, but that can be done another time). Instead of having duplicate code in both, simply have _kernel_text_address() calls kernel_text_address() instead. This is marked for stable because there's an RCU bug that can happen if one of these functions gets called while RCU is not watching. That fix depends on this fix to keep from having to write the fix twice. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 0be964be0 ("module: Sanitize RCU usage and locking") Acked-by: Paul E.

kernel/extable.c: mark core_kernel_text notrace

extable: Adjust system_state checks

2017-05-23T08:01:37Z

To enable smp_processor_id() and might_sleep() debug checks earlier, it's required to add system states between SYSTEM_BOOTING and SYSTEM_RUNNING. Adjust the system_state check in core_kernel_text() to handle the extra states, i.e. to cover init text up to the point where the system switches to state RUNNING.
