commit cb0ca08b326aa03f87fe94bb91872ce8d2ef1ed8 upstream.

If gcc decides not to inline in_softirq_really(), objtool warns about a
function call with UACCESS enabled:

kernel/kcov.o: warning: objtool: __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc+0x1e: call to in_softirq_really() with UACCESS enabled
kernel/kcov.o: warning: objtool: check_kcov_mode+0x11: call to in_softirq_really() with UACCESS enabled

Mark this as __always_inline to avoid the problem.

[ Upstream commit c4441ca86afe4814039ee1b32c39d833c1a16bbc ]

The bpf_remove_insns() function returns WARN_ON_ONCE(error), where
error is a result of bpf_adj_branches(), and thus should be always 0
However, if for any reason it is not 0, then it will be converted to
boolean by WARN_ON_ONCE and returned to user space as 1, not an actual
error value. Fix this by returning the original err after the WARN check.

<id>urn:sha1:631b1e09e213c86d5a4ce23d45c81af473bb0ac7</id>
<content type='text'>
commit afc6717628f959941d7b33728570568b4af1c4b8 upstream.

In order to catch a common bug where a TRACE_EVENT() TP_fast_assign()
assigns an address of an allocated string to the ring buffer and then
references it in TP_printk(), which can be executed hours later when the
string is free, the function test_event_printk() runs on all events as
they are registered to make sure there's no unwanted dereferencing.

It calls process_string() to handle cases in TP_printk() format that has
"%s". It returns whether or not the string is safe. But it can have some
false positives.

For instance, xe_bo_move() has:

 TP_printk("move_lacks_source:%s, migrate object %p [size %zu] from %s to %s device_id:%s",
            __entry-&gt;move_lacks_source ? "yes" : "no", __entry-&gt;bo, __entry-&gt;size,
            xe_mem_type_to_name[__entry-&gt;old_placement],
            xe_mem_type_to_name[__entry-&gt;new_placement], __get_str(device_id))

Where the "%s" references into xe_mem_type_to_name[]. This is an array of
pointers that should be safe for the event to access. Instead of flagging
this as a bad reference, if a reference points to an array, where the
record field is the index, consider it safe.

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.

<content type='text'>
commit 65a25d9f7ac02e0cf361356e834d1c71d36acca9 upstream.

The test_event_printk() code makes sure that when a trace event is
registered, any dereferenced pointers in from the event's TP_printk() are
pointing to content in the ring buffer. But currently it does not handle
"%s", as there's cases where the string pointer saved in the ring buffer
points to a static string in the kernel that will never be freed. As that
is a valid case, the pointer needs to be checked at runtime.

Currently the runtime check is done via trace_check_vprintf(), but to not
have to replicate everything in vsnprintf() it does some logic with the
va_list that may not be reliable across architectures. In order to get rid
of that logic, more work in the test_event_printk() needs to be done. Some
of the strings can be validated at this time when it is obvious the string
is valid because the string will be saved in the ring buffer content.

Do all the validation of strings in the ring buffer at boot in
test_event_printk(), and make sure that the field of the strings that
point into the kernel are accessible. This will allow adding checks at
runtime that will validate the fields themselves and not rely on paring
the TP_printk() format at runtime.

<title>tracing: Add missing helper functions in event pointer dereference check</title>

commit 917110481f6bc1c96b1e54b62bb114137fbc6d17 upstream.

The process_pointer() helper function looks to see if various trace event
macros are used. These macros are for storing data in the event. This
makes it safe to dereference as the dereference will then point into the
event on the ring buffer where the content of the data stays with the
event itself.

A few helper functions were missing. Those were:

  __get_rel_dynamic_array()
  __get_dynamic_array_len()
  __get_rel_dynamic_array_len()
  __get_rel_sockaddr()

Also add a helper function find_print_string() to not need to use a middle
man variable to test if the string exists.

<title>tracing: Fix test_event_printk() to process entire print argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ce8d36310367eec7e55b9e285fcfd0122fe74d2c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit a6629626c584200daf495cc9a740048b455addcd upstream.

The test_event_printk() analyzes print formats of trace events looking for
cases where it may dereference a pointer that is not in the ring buffer
which can possibly be a bug when the trace event is read from the ring
buffer and the content of that pointer no longer exists.

The function needs to accurately go from one print format argument to the
next. It handles quotes and parenthesis that may be included in an
argument. When it finds the start of the next argument, it uses a simple
"c = strstr(fmt + i, ',')" to find the end of that argument!

In order to include "%s" dereferencing, it needs to process the entire
content of the print format argument and not just the content of the first
',' it finds. As there may be content like:

 ({ const char *saved_ptr = trace_seq_buffer_ptr(p); static const char
   *access_str[] = { "---", "--x", "w--", "w-x", "-u-", "-ux", "wu-", "wux"
   }; union kvm_mmu_page_role role; role.word = REC-&gt;role;
   trace_seq_printf(p, "sp gen %u gfn %llx l%u %u-byte q%u%s %s%s" " %snxe
   %sad root %u %s%c", REC-&gt;mmu_valid_gen, REC-&gt;gfn, role.level,
   role.has_4_byte_gpte ? 4 : 8, role.quadrant, role.direct ? " direct" : "",
   access_str[role.access], role.invalid ? " invalid" : "", role.efer_nx ? ""
   : "!", role.ad_disabled ? "!" : "", REC-&gt;root_count, REC-&gt;unsync ?
   "unsync" : "sync", 0); saved_ptr; })

Which is an example of a full argument of an existing event. As the code
already handles finding the next print format argument, process the
argument at the end of it and not the start of it. This way it has both
the start of the argument as well as the end of it.

Add a helper function "process_pointer()" that will do the processing during
the loop as well as at the end. It also makes the code cleaner and easier
to read.
