tracing: probes: Fix a possible race in trace_probe_log APIs

2025-05-22T12:09:59Z

[ Upstream commit fd837de3c9cb1a162c69bc1fb1f438467fe7f2f5 ] Since the shared trace_probe_log variable can be accessed and modified via probe event create operation of kprobe_events, uprobe_events, and dynamic_events, it should be protected. In the dynamic_events, all operations are serialized by `dyn_event_ops_mutex`. But kprobe_events and uprobe_events interfaces are not serialized. To solve this issue, introduces dyn_event_create(), which runs create() operation under the mutex, for kprobe_events and uprobe_events. This also uses lockdep to check the mutex is held when using trace_probe_log* APIs.

tracing/kprobe: Make trace_kprobe's module callback called after jump_label update

2025-01-02T09:30:51Z

[ Upstream commit d685d55dfc86b1a4bdcec77c3c1f8a83f181264e ] Make sure the trace_kprobe's module notifer callback function is called after jump_label's callback is called. Since the trace_kprobe's callback eventually checks jump_label address during registering new kprobe on the loading module, jump_label must be updated before this registration happens.

tracing/kprobes: Skip symbol counting logic for module symbols in create_local_trace_kprobe()

2024-12-19T17:08:57Z

commit b022f0c7e404 ("tracing/kprobes: Return EADDRNOTAVAIL when func matches several symbols") avoids checking number_of_same_symbols() for module symbol in __trace_kprobe_create(), but create_local_trace_kprobe() should avoid this check too. Doing this check leads to ENOENT for module_name:symbol_name constructions passed over perf_event_open.

tracing/kprobes: Fix symbol counting logic by looking at modules as well

2024-01-05T14:18:40Z

commit 926fe783c8a64b33997fec405cf1af3e61aed441 upstream. Recent changes to count number of matching symbols when creating a kprobe event failed to take into account kernel modules. As such, it breaks kprobes on kernel module symbols, by assuming there is no match. Fix this my calling module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol() in addition to kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol() to perform a proper counting.

tracing/kprobes: Return EADDRNOTAVAIL when func matches several symbols

2023-10-25T10:03:16Z

[ Upstream commit b022f0c7e404887a7c5229788fc99eff9f9a80d5 ] When a kprobe is attached to a function that's name is not unique (is static and shares the name with other functions in the kernel), the kprobe is attached to the first function it finds. This is a bug as the function that it is attaching to is not necessarily the one that the user wants to attach to. Instead of blindly picking a function to attach to what is ambiguous, error with EADDRNOTAVAIL to let the user know that this function is not unique, and that the user must use another unique function with an address offset to get to the function they want to attach to.

tracing: Move duplicate code of trace_kprobe/eprobe.c into header

2022-10-12T17:50:00Z

The functions: fetch_store_strlen_user() fetch_store_strlen() fetch_store_string_user() fetch_store_string() are identical in both trace_kprobe.c and trace_eprobe.c. Move them into a new header file trace_probe_kernel.h to share it. This code will later be used by the synthetic events as well. Marked for stable as a fix for a crash in synthetic events requires it.

tracing: Auto generate event name when creating a group of events

2022-07-24T23:11:17Z

Currently when creating a specific group of trace events, take kprobe event as example, the user must use the following format: p:GRP/EVENT [MOD:]KSYM[+OFFS]|KADDR [FETCHARGS], which means user must enter EVENT name, one example is: echo 'p:usb_gadget/config_usb_cfg_link config_usb_cfg_link $arg1' >> kprobe_events It is not simple if there are too many entries because the event name is the same as symbol name. This change allows user to specify no EVENT name, format changed as: p:GRP/ [MOD:]KSYM[+OFFS]|KADDR [FETCHARGS] It will generate event name automatically and one example is: echo 'p:usb_gadget/ config_usb_cfg_link $arg1' >> kprobe_events.

tracing/kprobes: Check whether get_kretprobe() returns NULL in kretprobe_dispatcher()

2022-06-17T21:40:06Z

There is a small chance that get_kretprobe(ri) returns NULL in kretprobe_dispatcher() when another CPU unregisters the kretprobe right after __kretprobe_trampoline_handler(). To avoid this issue, kretprobe_dispatcher() checks the get_kretprobe() return value again. And if it is NULL, it returns soon because that kretprobe is under unregistering process. This issue has been introduced when the kretprobe is decoupled from the struct kretprobe_instance by commit d741bf41d7c7 ("kprobes: Remove kretprobe hash"). Before that commit, the struct kretprob_instance::rp directly points the kretprobe and it is never be NULL.
