* x86/ptrace: make genregs[32]_get/set more robustLinus Torvalds2009-12-17
| | | | | | | | | | | The loop condition is fragile: we compare an unsigned value to zero, and then decrement it by something larger than one in the loop. All the callers should be passing in appropriately aligned buffer lengths, but it's better to just not rely on it, and have some appropriate defensive loop limits.

* ptrace: x86: change syscall_trace_leave() to rely on tracehook when steppingOleg Nesterov2009-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Suggested by Roland. Unlike powepc, x86 always calls tracehook_report_syscall_exit(step) with step = 0, and sends the trap by hand. This results in unnecessary SIGTRAP when PTRACE_SINGLESTEP follows the syscall-exit stop. Change syscall_trace_leave() to pass the correct "step" argument to tracehook and remove the send_sigtrap() logic.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Suggested by Roland. Implement user_single_step_siginfo() for x86. Extract this code from send_sigtrap(). Since x86 calls tracehook_report_syscall_exit(step => 0) the new helper is not used yet.

* hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering themFrederic Weisbecker2009-12-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling it, changing its address, type or len, it calls modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new one. This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle. So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it after if necessary.

* hw-breakpoints: Use overflow handler instead of the event callbackFrederic Weisbecker2009-12-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct perf_event::event callback was called when a breakpoint triggers. But this is a rather opaque callback, pretty tied-only to the breakpoint API and not really integrated into perf as it triggers even when we don't overflow. We prefer to use overflow_handler() as it fits into the perf events rules, being called only when we overflow.

* hw-breakpoints: Keep track of user disabled breakpointsFrederic Weisbecker2009-12-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we disable a breakpoint through dr7, we unregister it right away, making us lose track of its corresponding address register value. It means that the following sequence would be unsupported: - set address in dr0 - enable it through dr7 - disable it through dr7 - enable it through dr7 because we lost the address register value when we disabled the breakpoint. Don't unregister the disabled breakpoints but rather disable them.

* hw-breakpoints: Use struct perf_event_attr to define user breakpointsFrederic Weisbecker2009-11-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In-kernel user breakpoints are created using functions in which we pass breakpoint parameters as individual variables: address, length and type. Although it fits well for x86, this just does not scale across archictectures that may support this api later as these may have more or different needs. Pass in a perf_event_attr structure instead because it is meant to evolve as much as possible into a generic hardware breakpoint parameter structure.

Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc.. The new layering is now made as follows: ptrace kgdb ftrace perf syscall \ | / / \ | / / / Core breakpoint API / / | / | / Breakpoints perf events | | Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling (Part of core breakpoint API) | | Hardware debug registers Reasons of this rewrite: - Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling, implying an easier arch integration - More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...) Impact: - New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters - Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per thread breakpoints references. Todo (in the order): - Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement perf_bpcounter_event()) - Support from perf tools Changes in v2: - Follow the perf "event " rename - The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events weren't released when a task ended) - Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in perf_event_attr. - Separate core and arch specific headers, drop asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h - Use new generic len/type for breakpoint - Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch Changes in v3: - Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers to the host. Changes in v4: - Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM - EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a module - Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit: TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be set when the guest used debug registers. (Waiting for a reliable optimization) Changes in v5: - Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch - Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up address registers. - Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild - Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c Changes in v6: - Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Prasad <prasad@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>

| * | | x86: ptrace: set TS_COMPAT when 32-bit ptrace sets orig_eax>=0Roland McGrath2009-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 32-bit ptrace syscall on a 64-bit kernel (32-bit debugger on 32-bit task) behaves differently than a native 32-bit kernel. When setting a register state of orig_eax>=0 and eax=-ERESTART* when the debugged task is NOT on its way out of a 32-bit syscall, the task will fail to do the syscall restart logic that it should do. Test case available at http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/tests/ptrace-tests/tests/erestartsys-trap.c?cvsroot=systemtap This happens because the 32-bit ptrace syscall sets eax=0xffffffff when it sets orig_eax>=0. The resuming task will not sign-extend this for the -ERESTART* check because TS_COMPAT is not set. (So the task thinks it is restarting after a 64-bit syscall, not a 32-bit one.) The fix is to have 32-bit ptrace calls set TS_COMPAT when setting orig_eax>=0. This ensures that the 32-bit syscall restart logic will apply when the child resumes.

* | tracing: Move tracepoint callbacks from declaration to definitionJosh Stone2009-08-25

This happens to be fine for syscall, since that's in the core kernel, but it would cause problems for tracepoints defined in a module that hasn't been loaded yet. It also means the reg/unreg has to be EXPORTed for any modules to use the tracepoint (as in SystemTap). This patch removes DECLARE_TRACE_WITH_CALLBACK, and instead introduces DEFINE_TRACE_FN which stores the callbacks in struct tracepoint. The callbacks are used now when the active state of the tracepoint changes in set_tracepoint & disable_tracepoint. This also introduces TRACE_EVENT_FN, so ftrace events can also provide registration callbacks if needed.

Make the hw-branch-tracer use the new debug store interface, synchronize with hotplug cpu event using get/put_online_cpus(), and remove the unnecessary spinlock. Make the ptrace bts and the ds selftest code use the new interface. Defer the ds selftest.

But the same container-init must behave like a normal process to processes in ancestor namespaces and so if it receives the same fatal signal from a process in ancestor namespace, the signal must be processed. Implementing these semantics requires that send_signal() determine pid namespace of the sender but since signals can originate from workqueues/ interrupt-handlers, determining pid namespace of sender may not always be possible or safe. This patchset implements the design/simplified semantics suggested by Oleg Nesterov. The simplified semantics for container-init are: - container-init must never be terminated by a signal from a descendant process. - container-init must never be immune to SIGKILL from an ancestor namespace (so a process in parent namespace must always be able to terminate a descendant container). - container-init may be immune to unhandled fatal signals (like SIGUSR1) even if they are from ancestor namespace. SIGKILL/SIGSTOP are the only reliable signals to a container-init from ancestor namespace. This patch: Based on an earlier patch submitted by Oleg Nesterov and comments from Roland McGrath (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/19/258). The handler parameter is currently unused in the tracehook functions. Besides, the tracehook functions are called with siglock held, so the functions can check the handler if they later need to. Removing the parameter simiplifies changes to sig_ignored() in a follow-on patch.

A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80. In both these cases, audit_syscall_entry() will use the wrong system call number table and the wrong system call argument registers. This could be used to circumvent a syscall audit configuration that filters based on the syscall numbers or argument details.

This might cause a double-free of the BTS buffer. Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in ptrace_bts_detach() and leave the buffer free to ptrace_bts_untrace() which will be called from __ptrace_unlink().

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.

It's not saved and restored on kernel entry/exit but only when necessary which usually is during task switch but there are few other places. Currently, it's done by calling savesegment() and loadsegment() explicitly. Define get_user_gs(), set_user_gs() and task_user_gs() and use them instead.
