commit 6a13a0d7b4d1171ef9b80ad69abc37e1daa941b3 upstream.

Show maxactive parameter on kprobe_events.
This allows user to save the current configuration and
restore it without losing maxactive parameter.

[ Upstream commit b61387cb732cf283d318b2165c44913525fe545f ]

Commit 99c9a923e97a ("tracing/uprobe: Fix double perf_event
linking on multiprobe uprobe") moved trace_uprobe_filter on
trace_probe_event. However, since it introduced a flexible
data structure with char array and type casting, the
alignment of trace_uprobe_filter can be broken.

This changes the type of the array to trace_uprobe_filter
data strucure to fix it.

<content type='text'>
commit 99c9a923e97a583a38050baa92c9377d73946330 upstream.

Fix double perf_event linking to trace_uprobe_filter on
multiple uprobe event by moving trace_uprobe_filter under
trace_probe_event.

In uprobe perf event, trace_uprobe_filter data structure is
managing target mm filters (in perf_event) related to each
uprobe event.

Since commit 60d53e2c3b75 ("tracing/probe: Split trace_event
related data from trace_probe") left the trace_uprobe_filter
data structure in trace_uprobe, if a trace_probe_event has
multiple trace_uprobe (multi-probe event), a perf_event is
added to different trace_uprobe_filter on each trace_uprobe.
This leads a linked list corruption.

To fix this issue, move trace_uprobe_filter to trace_probe_event
and link it once on each event instead of each probe.

<title>tracing/kprobe: Check whether the non-suffixed symbol is notrace</title>

[ Upstream commit c7411a1a126f649be71526a36d4afac9e5aefa13 ]

Check whether the non-suffixed symbol is notrace, since suffixed
symbols are generated by the compilers for optimization. Based on
these suffixed symbols, notrace check might not work because
some of them are just a partial code of the original function.
(e.g. cold-cache (unlikely) code is separated from original
 function as FUNCTION.cold.XX)

For example, without this fix,
  # echo p device_add.cold.67 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  sh: write error: Invalid argument

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/error_log
  [  135.491035] trace_kprobe: error: Failed to register probe event
    Command: p device_add.cold.67
               ^
  # dmesg | tail -n 1
  [  135.488599] trace_kprobe: Could not probe notrace function device_add.cold.67

With this,
  # echo p device_add.cold.66 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/list
  ffffffff81599de9  k  device_add.cold.66+0x0    [DISABLED]

Actually, kprobe blacklist already did similar thing,
see within_kprobe_blacklist().

<title>tracing: Add locked_down checks to the open calls of files created for tracefs</title>

Added various checks on open tracefs calls to see if tracefs is in lockdown
mode, and if so, to return -EPERM.

Note, the event format files (which are basically standard on all machines)
as well as the enabled_functions file (which shows what is currently being
traced) are not lockde down. Perhaps they should be, but it seems counter
intuitive to lockdown information to help you know if the system has been
modified.

<content type='text'>
Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris:
 "This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from
  Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others.

  From the original description:

    This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature,
    intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel.
    When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted.
    Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the
    kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be
    enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand.

    The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants
    of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a
    doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer
    to not requiring external patches.

  There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline:

   - Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is
     covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/

   -  Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM
      module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven,
      rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism.

  The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a
  policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow
  tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be
  permitted.

  The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple
  policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse
  level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line:

    lockdown={integrity|confidentiality}

  Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features
  that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to
  confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract
  confidential information from the kernel are also disabled.

  This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and
  overriden by kernel configuration.

  New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the
  lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in
  include/linux/security.h for details.

  The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review
  across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some
  weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.

  Stephen Rothwell noted that commit 9d1f8be5cf42 ("bpf: Restrict bpf
  when kernel lockdown is in confidentiality mode") is missing a
  Signed-off-by from its author. Matthew responded that he is providing
  this under category (c) of the DCO"

Commit fe60b0ce8e73 ("tracing/probe: Reject exactly same probe event")
tries to reject a event which matches an already existing probe.

However it currently continues to match arguments and rejects adding a
probe even when the arguments don't match. Fix this by only rejecting a
probe if and only if all the arguments match.

Reject exactly same probe events as existing probes.

Multiprobe allows user to define multiple probes on same
event. If user appends a probe which exactly same definition
(same probe address and same arguments) on existing event,
the event will record same probe information twice.
That can be confusing users, so reject it.

This operations was allowed before commit 60d53e2c3b75 ("tracing/probe:

need to probe module init functions, they have to enable those probe
events before loading module.

<content type='text'>
Add immediate string parameter (\"string") support to
probe events. This allows you to specify an immediate
(or dummy) parameter instead of fetching a string from
memory.

This feature looks odd, but imagine that you put a probe
on a code to trace some string data. If the code is
compiled into 2 instructions and 1 instruction has a
string on memory but other has no string since it is
optimized out. In that case, you can not fold those into
one event, even if ftrace supported multiple probes on
one event. With this feature, you can set a dummy string
like foo=\"(optimized)":string instead of something
like foo=+0(+0(%bp)):string.
