| * x86: pass in pt_regs pointer for syscalls that need itBrian Gerst2009-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some syscalls need to access the pt_regs structure, either to copy user register state or to modifiy it. This patch adds stubs to load the address of the pt_regs struct into the %eax register, and changes the syscalls to regparm(1) to receive the pt_regs pointer as the first argument.

| * x86: implement x86_32 stack protectorTejun Heo2009-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: stack protector for x86_32 Implement stack protector for x86_32. GDT entry 28 is used for it. It's set to point to stack_canary-20 and have the length of 24 bytes. CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR turns off CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and sets %gs to the stack canary segment on entry. As %gs is otherwise unused by the kernel, the canary can be anywhere. It's defined as a percpu variable. x86_32 exception handlers take register frame on stack directly as struct pt_regs. With -fstack-protector turned on, gcc copies the whole structure after the stack canary and (of course) doesn't copy back on return thus losing all changed. For now, -fno-stack-protector is added to all files which contain those functions. We definitely need something better.

| * x86: make lazy %gs optional on x86_32Tejun Heo2009-02-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: pt_regs changed, lazy gs handling made optional, add slight overhead to SAVE_ALL, simplifies error_code path a bit On x86_32, %gs hasn't been used by kernel and handled lazily. pt_regs doesn't have place for it and gs is saved/loaded only when necessary. In preparation for stack protector support, this patch makes lazy %gs handling optional by doing the followings. * Add CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and place for gs in pt_regs. * Save and restore %gs along with other registers in entry_32.S unless LAZY_GS. Note that this unfortunately adds "pushl $0" on SAVE_ALL even when LAZY_GS. However, it adds no overhead to common exit path and simplifies entry path with error code. * Define different user_gs accessors depending on LAZY_GS and add lazy_save_gs() and lazy_load_gs() which are noop if !LAZY_GS. The lazy_*_gs() ops are used to save, load and clear %gs lazily. * Define ELF_CORE_COPY_KERNEL_REGS() which always read %gs directly. xen and lguest changes need to be verified.

* x86: make x86_32 use tlb_64.cTejun Heo2009-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: less contention when issuing invalidate IPI, cleanup Make x86_32 use the same tlb code as 64bit. The 64bit code uses multiple IPI vectors for tlb shootdown to reduce contention. This patch makes x86_32 allocate the same 8 IPIs as x86_64 and share the code paths. Note that the usage of asmlinkage is inconsistent for x86_32 and 64 and calls for further cleanup. This has been noted with a FIXME comment in tlb_64.c. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

| * tracing/function-return-tracer: support for dynamic ftrace on function ↵Frederic Weisbecker2008-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | return tracer This patch adds the support for dynamic tracing on the function return tracer. The whole difference with normal dynamic function tracing is that we don't need to hook on a particular callback. The only pro that we want is to nop or set dynamically the calls to ftrace_caller (which is ftrace_return_caller here). Some security checks ensure that we are not trying to launch dynamic tracing for return tracing while normal function tracing is already running. An example of trace with getnstimeofday set as a filter: ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (2283 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1396 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1382 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1825 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1426 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1464 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1524 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1382 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1382 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1434 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1464 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1502 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1404 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1397 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1051 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1314 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1344 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1163 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1390 ns) ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1374 ns) Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| * tracing, x86: add low level support for ftrace return tracingFrederic Weisbecker2008-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: add infrastructure for function-return tracing Add low level support for ftrace return tracing. This plug-in stores return addresses on the thread_info structure of the current task. The index of the current return address is initialized when the task is the first one (init) and when a process forks (the child). It is not needed when a task does a sys_execve because after this syscall, it still needs to return on the kernel functions it called. Note that the code of return_to_handler has been suggested by Steven Rostedt as almost all of the ideas of improvements in this V3. For purpose of security, arch/x86/kernel/process_32.c is not traced because __switch_to() changes the current task during its execution. That could cause inconsistency in the stored return address of this function even if I didn't have any crash after testing with tracing on this function enabled.

| * ftrace: add quick function trace stopSteven Rostedt2008-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: quick start and stop of function tracer This patch adds a way to disable the function tracer quickly without the need to run kstop_machine. It adds a new variable called function_trace_stop which will stop the calls to functions from mcount when set. This is just an on/off switch and does not handle recursion like preempt_disable(). It's main purpose is to help other tracers/debuggers start and stop tracing fuctions without the need to call kstop_machine. The config option HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST is added for archs that implement the testing of the function_trace_stop in the mcount arch dependent code. Otherwise, the test is done in the C code. x86 is the only arch at the moment that supports this. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| * | x86, debug: remove the confusing entry in call tracejia zhang2008-11-23
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: improve backtrace quality avoid the confusion in call trace because of the lack of padding at the tail of function. When do_exit gets called, the return address behind call instruction is pushed into stack. If something get wrong in do_exit, for x86_64, the entry "kernel_execve +0x00/0xXX" rather than "child_rip +0xYY/0xZZ" is in the call trace. That looks confusing, so add a u2d to make the return address still part of the original call site. (This also catches any instances of us returning from that function somehow.)

* | x86: 32 bits: shrink and align IRQ stubsH. Peter Anvin2008-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Shrink the IRQ stubs on 32 bits down to just over four bytes per (we fit seven into a 32-byte chunk.) This shrinks the total icache consumption of the IRQ stubs down to an even kilobyte, if all of them are in active use. The downside is that we end up with a double jump, which could have a negative effect on some pipelines. The double jump is always inside the same cacheline on any modern chips (the exception being 486/Elan/Geode which have only 16-byte cachelines, but are unlikely to have too many interrupt sources.) To get the most effect, cache-align the IRQ stubs. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>

Using a single function for entry and exit tracing on 32-bit made the do_syscall_trace() into some terrible spaghetti. The logic is clear and simple using separate syscall_trace_enter() and syscall_trace_leave() functions as on 64-bit. The unification adds PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP support on x86_64, for 32-bit ptrace() callers and for 64-bit ptrace() callers tracing either 32-bit or 64-bit tasks. It behaves just like 32-bit. Changing syscall_trace_enter() to return the syscall number shortens all the assembly paths, while adding the SYSEMU feature in a simple way.

Both now leave TIF_SINGLESTEP set when returning to user, so that it's already set on an int $0x80 system call entry. This removes the need for testing TF on the system_call path. Doing it this way fixes the regression for PTRACE_SINGLESTEP into a sigreturn syscall, introduced by commit 1e2e99f0e4aa6363e8515ed17011c210c8f1b52a. The clear_TF_reenable case that sets TIF_SINGLESTEP can only happen on a non-exception kernel entry, i.e. sysenter/syscall instruction. That will always get to the syscall exit tracing path.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64 record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.

| * | | ftrace: use dynamic patching for updating mcount callsSteven Rostedt2008-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch replaces the indirect call to the mcount function pointer with a direct call that will be patched by the dynamic ftrace routines. On boot up, the mcount function calls the ftace_stub function. When the dynamic ftrace code is initialized, the ftrace_stub is replaced with a call to the ftrace_record_ip, which records the instruction pointers of the locations that call it. Later, the ftraced daemon will call kstop_machine and patch all the locations to nops. When a ftrace is enabled, the original calls to mcount will now be set top call ftrace_caller, which will do a direct call to the registered ftrace function. This direct call is also patched when the function that should be called is updated. All patching is performed by a kstop_machine routine to prevent any type of race conditions that is associated with modifying code on the fly.

The ftrace routine will then call a registered function if a function happens to be registered. [ This code has been highly hacked by Steven Rostedt and Ingo Molnar, so don't blame Arnaldo for all of this ;-) ] Update: It is now possible to register more than one ftrace function. If only one ftrace function is registered, that will be the function that ftrace calls directly. If more than one function is registered, then ftrace will call a function that will loop through the functions to call.
