2024-05-04tracefs: Still use mount point as default permissions for instancesSteven Rostedt (Google)1-2/+25
If the instances directory's permissions were never change, then have it and its children use the mount point permissions as the default. Currently, the permissions of instance directories are determined by the instance directory's permissions itself. But if the tracefs file system is remounted and changes the permissions, the instance directory and its children should use the new permission. But because both the instance directory and its children use the instance directory's inode for permissions, it misses the update. To demonstrate this: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ # mkdir instances/foo # ls -ld instances/foo drwxr-x--- 5 root root 0 May 1 19:07 instances/foo # ls -ld instances drwxr-x--- 3 root root 0 May 1 18:57 instances # ls -ld current_tracer -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 18:57 current_tracer # mount -o remount,gid=1002 . # ls -ld instances drwxr-x--- 3 root root 0 May 1 18:57 instances # ls -ld instances/foo/ drwxr-x--- 5 root root 0 May 1 19:07 instances/foo/ # ls -ld current_tracer -rw-r----- 1 root lkp 0 May 1 18:57 current_tracer Notice that changing the group id to that of "lkp" did not affect the instances directory nor its children. It should have been: # ls -ld current_tracer -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 19:19 current_tracer # ls -ld instances/foo/ drwxr-x--- 5 root root 0 May 1 19:25 instances/foo/ # ls -ld instances drwxr-x--- 3 root root 0 May 1 19:19 instances # mount -o remount,gid=1002 . # ls -ld current_tracer -rw-r----- 1 root lkp 0 May 1 19:19 current_tracer # ls -ld instances drwxr-x--- 3 root lkp 0 May 1 19:19 instances # ls -ld instances/foo/ drwxr-x--- 5 root lkp 0 May 1 19:25 instances/foo/ Where all files were updated by the remount gid update.

2024-05-04tracefs: Reset permissions on remount if permissions are optionsSteven Rostedt (Google)1-1/+64
There's an inconsistency with the way permissions are handled in tracefs. Because the permissions are generated when accessed, they default to the root inode's permission if they were never set by the user. If the user sets the permissions, then a flag is set and the permissions are saved via the inode (for tracefs files) or an internal attribute field (for eventfs). But if a remount happens that specify the permissions, all the files that were not changed by the user gets updated, but the ones that were are not. If the user were to remount the file system with a given permission, then all files and directories within that file system should be updated. This can cause security issues if a file's permission was updated but the admin forgot about it. They could incorrectly think that remounting with permissions set would update all files, but miss some. For example: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # chgrp 1002 current_tracer # ls -l [..] -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 21:25 buffer_size_kb -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 21:25 buffer_subbuf_size_kb -r--r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 21:25 buffer_total_size_kb -rw-r----- 1 root lkp 0 May 1 21:25 current_tracer -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 21:25 dynamic_events -r--r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 21:25 dyn_ftrace_total_info -r--r----- 1 root root 0 May 1 21:25 enabled_functions Where current_tracer now has group "lkp". # mount -o remount,gid=1001 . # ls -l -rw-r----- 1 root tracing 0 May 1 21:25 buffer_size_kb -rw-r----- 1 root tracing 0 May 1 21:25 buffer_subbuf_size_kb -r--r----- 1 root tracing 0 May 1 21:25 buffer_total_size_kb -rw-r----- 1 root lkp 0 May 1 21:25 current_tracer -rw-r----- 1 root tracing 0 May 1 21:25 dynamic_events -r--r----- 1 root tracing 0 May 1 21:25 dyn_ftrace_total_info -r--r----- 1 root tracing 0 May 1 21:25 enabled_functions Everything changed but the "current_tracer". Add a new link list that keeps track of all the tracefs_inodes which has the permission flags that tell if the file/dir should use the root inode's permission or not. Then on remount, clear all the flags so that the default behavior of using the root inode's permission is done for all files and directories.

2024-03-12mm, slab: remove last vestiges of SLAB_MEM_SPREADLinus Torvalds1-1/+0
Yes, yes, I know the slab people were planning on going slow and letting every subsystem fight this thing on their own. But let's just rip off the band-aid and get it over and done with. I don't want to see a number of unnecessary pull requests just to get rid of a flag that no longer has any meaning. This was mainly done with a couple of 'sed' scripts and then some manual cleanup of the end result.

2024-02-01eventfs: Clean up dentry ops and add revalidate functionLinus Torvalds1-9/+18
In order for the dentries to stay up-to-date with the eventfs changes, just add a 'd_revalidate' function that checks the 'is_freed' bit. Also, clean up the dentry release to actually use d_release() rather than the slightly odd d_iput() function. We don't care about the inode, all we want to do is to get rid of the refcount to the eventfs data added by dentry->d_fsdata. It would probably be cleaner to make eventfs its own filesystem, or at least set its own dentry ops when looking up eventfs files. But as it is, only eventfs dentries use d_fsdata, so we don't really need to split these things up by use. Another thing that might be worth doing is to make all eventfs lookups mark their dentries as not worth caching. We could do that with d_delete(), but the DCACHE_DONTCACHE flag would likely be even better. As it is, the dentries are all freeable, but they only tend to get freed at memory pressure rather than more proactively. But that's a separate issue.

2024-02-01tracefs: dentry lookup crapectomyLinus Torvalds1-69/+0
The dentry lookup for eventfs files was very broken, and had lots of signs of the old situation where the filesystem names were all created statically in the dentry tree, rather than being looked up dynamically based on the eventfs data structures. You could see it in the naming - how it claimed to "create" dentries rather than just look up the dentries that were given it. You could see it in various nonsensical and very incorrect operations, like using "simple_lookup()" on the dentries that were passed in, which only results in those dentries becoming negative dentries. Which meant that any other lookup would possibly return ENOENT if it saw that negative dentry before the data was then later filled in. You could see it in the immense amount of nonsensical code that didn't actually just do lookups.

2024-01-31tracefs: Zero out the tracefs_inode when allocating itSteven Rostedt (Google)1-2/+4
eventfs uses the tracefs_inode and assumes that it's already initialized to zero. That is, it doesn't set fields to zero (like ti->private) after getting its tracefs_inode. This causes bugs due to stale values. Just initialize the entire structure to zero on allocation so there isn't any more surprises. This is a partial fix to access to ti->private. The assignment still needs to be made before the dentry is instantiated.

2024-01-03tracefs/eventfs: Use root and instance inodes as default ownershipSteven Rostedt (Google)1-88/+110
Instead of walking the dentries on mount/remount to update the gid values of all the dentries if a gid option is specified on mount, just update the root inode. Add .getattr, .setattr, and .permissions on the tracefs inode operations to update the permissions of the files and directories. For all files and directories in the top level instance: /sys/kernel/tracing/* It will use the root inode as the default permissions. The inode that represents: /sys/kernel/tracing (or wherever it is mounted). When an instance is created: mkdir /sys/kernel/tracing/instance/foo The directory "foo" and all its files and directories underneath will use the default of what foo is when it was created. A remount of tracefs will not affect it. If a user were to modify the permissions of any file or directory in tracefs, it will also no longer be modified by a change in ownership of a remount. The events directory, if it is in the top level instance, will use the tracefs root inode as the default ownership for itself and all the files and directories below it. For the events directory in an instance ("foo"), it will keep the ownership of what it was when it was created, and that will be used as the default ownership for the files and directories beneath it.

2024-01-02tracefs: Check for dentry->d_inode exists in set_gid()Steven Rostedt (Google)1-0/+4
If a getdents() is called on the tracefs directory but does not get all the files, it can leave a "cursor" dentry in the d_subdirs list of tracefs dentry. This cursor dentry does not have a d_inode for it. Before referencing tracefs_inode from the dentry, the d_inode must first be checked if it has content. If not, then it's not a tracefs_inode and can be ignored. The following caused a crash: #define getdents64(fd, dirp, count) syscall(SYS_getdents64, fd, dirp, count) #define BUF_SIZE 256 #define TDIR "/tmp/file0" int main(void) { char buf[BUF_SIZE]; int fd; int n; mkdir(TDIR, 0777); mount(NULL, TDIR, "tracefs", 0, NULL); fd = openat(AT_FDCWD, TDIR, O_RDONLY); n = getdents64(fd, buf, BUF_SIZE); ret = mount(NULL, TDIR, NULL, MS_NOSUID|MS_REMOUNT|MS_RELATIME|MS_LAZYTIME, "gid=1000"); return 0; } That's because the 256 BUF_SIZE was not big enough to read all the dentries of the tracefs file system and it left a "cursor" dentry in the subdirs of the tracefs root inode. Then on remounting with "gid=1000", it would cause an iteration of all dentries which hit: ti = get_tracefs(dentry->d_inode); if (ti && (ti->flags & TRACEFS_EVENT_INODE)) eventfs_update_gid(dentry, gid); Which crashed because of the dereference of the cursor dentry which had a NULL d_inode. In the subdir loop of the dentry lookup of set_gid(), if a child has a NULL d_inode, simply skip it.

2023-12-22eventfs: Fix file and directory uid and gid ownershipSteven Rostedt (Google)1-0/+6
It was reported that when mounting the tracefs file system with a gid other than root, the ownership did not carry down to the eventfs directory due to the dynamic nature of it. A fix was done to solve this, but it had two issues. (a) if the attr passed into update_inode_attr() was NULL, it didn't do anything. This is true for files that have not had a chown or chgrp done to itself or any of its sibling files, as the attr is allocated for all children when any one needs it. # umount /sys/kernel/tracing # mount -o rw,seclabel,relatime,gid=1000 -t tracefs nodev /mnt # ls -ld /mnt/events/sched drwxr-xr-x 28 root rostedt 0 Dec 21 13:12 /mnt/events/sched/ # ls -ld /mnt/events/sched/sched_switch drwxr-xr-x 2 root rostedt 0 Dec 21 13:12 /mnt/events/sched/sched_switch/ But when checking the files: # ls -l /mnt/events/sched/sched_switch total 0 -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Dec 21 13:12 enable -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Dec 21 13:12 filter -r--r----- 1 root root 0 Dec 21 13:12 format -r--r----- 1 root root 0 Dec 21 13:12 hist -r--r----- 1 root root 0 Dec 21 13:12 id -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Dec 21 13:12 trigger (b) When the attr does not denote the UID or GID, it defaulted to using the parent uid or gid. This is incorrect as changing the parent uid or gid will automatically change all its children. # chgrp tracing /mnt/events/timer # ls -ld /mnt/events/timer drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:34 /mnt/events/timer # ls -l /mnt/events/timer total 0 -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Dec 21 14:35 enable -rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Dec 21 14:35 filter drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 hrtimer_cancel drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 hrtimer_expire_entry drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 hrtimer_expire_exit drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 hrtimer_init drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 hrtimer_start drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 itimer_expire drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 itimer_state drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 tick_stop drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 timer_cancel drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 timer_expire_entry drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 timer_expire_exit drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 timer_init drwxr-xr-x 2 root tracing 0 Dec 21 14:35 timer_start At first it was thought that this could be easily fixed by just making the default ownership of the superblock when it was mounted. But this does not handle the case of: # chgrp tracing instances # mkdir instances/foo If the superblock was used, then the group ownership would be that of what it was when it was mounted, when it should instead be "tracing". Instead, set a flag for the top level eventfs directory ("events") to flag which eventfs_inode belongs to it. Since the "events" directory's dentry and inode are never freed, it does not need to use its attr field to restore its mode and ownership. Use the this eventfs_inode's attr as the default ownership for all the files and directories underneath it. When the events eventfs_inode is created, it sets its ownership to its parent uid and gid. As the events directory is created at boot up before it gets mounted, this will always be uid=0 and gid=0. If it's created via an instance, then it will take the ownership of the instance directory. When the file system is mounted, it will update all the gids if one is specified. This will have a callback to update the events evenfs_inode's default entries. When a file or directory is created under the events directory, it will walk the ei->dentry parents until it finds the evenfs_inode that belongs to the events directory to retrieve the default uid and gid values.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Remove eventfs_file descriptor This is the biggest change, and the second part of making eventfs create its files dynamically. In 6.6 the first part was added, and that maintained a one to one mapping between eventfs meta descriptors and the directories and file inodes and dentries that were dynamically created. The directories were represented by a eventfs_inode and the files were represented by a eventfs_file. In v6.7 the eventfs_file is removed. As all events have the same directory make up (sched_switch has an "enable", "id", "format", etc files), the handing of what files are underneath each leaf eventfs directory is moved back to the tracing subsystem via a callback. When an event is added to the eventfs, it registers an array of evenfs_entry's. These hold the names of the files and the callbacks to call when the file is referenced. The callback gets the name so that the same callback may be used by multiple files. The callback then supplies the filesystem_operations structure needed to create this file. This has brought the memory footprint of creating multiple eventfs instances down by 2 megs each! - User events now has persistent events that are not associated to a single processes. These are privileged events that hang around even if no process is attached to them - Clean up of seq_buf There's talk about using seq_buf more to replace strscpy() and friends. But this also requires some minor modifications of seq_buf to be able to do this - Expand instance ring buffers individually Currently if boot up creates an instance, and a trace event is enabled on that instance, the ring buffer for that instance and the top level ring buffer are expanded (1.4 MB per CPU).

2023-10-04eventfs: Remove eventfs_file and just use eventfs_inodeSteven Rostedt (Google)1-1/+1
Instead of having a descriptor for every file represented in the eventfs directory, only have the directory itself represented. Change the API to send in a list of entries that represent all the files in the directory (but not other directories). The entry list contains a name and a callback function that will be used to create the files when they are accessed. struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_events_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent, const struct eventfs_entry *entries, int size, void *data); is used for the top level eventfs directory, and returns an eventfs_inode that will be used by: struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct eventfs_inode *parent, const struct eventfs_entry *entries, int size, void *data); where both of the above take an array of struct eventfs_entry entries for every file that is in the directory. The entries are defined by: typedef int (*eventfs_callback)(const char *name, umode_t *mode, void **data, const struct file_operations **fops); struct eventfs_entry { const char *name; eventfs_callback callback; }; Where the name is the name of the file and the callback gets called when the file is being created. The callback passes in the name (in case the same callback is used for multiple files), a pointer to the mode, data and fops. The data will be pointing to the data that was passed in eventfs_create_dir() or eventfs_create_events_dir() but may be overridden to point to something else, as it will be used to point to the inode->i_private that is created. The information passed back from the callback is used to create the dentry/inode. If the callback fills the data and the file should be created, it must return a positive number.

2023-09-07tracefs/eventfs: Use dput to free the toplevel events directorySteven Rostedt (Google)1-1/+1
Currently when rmdir on an instance is done, eventfs_remove_events_dir() is called and it does a dput on the dentry and then frees the eventfs_inode that represents the events directory. But there's no protection against a reader reading the top level events directory at the same time and we can get a use after free error. Instead, use the dput() associated to the dentry to also free the eventfs_inode associated to the events directory, as that will get called when the last reference to the directory is released.

Currently it just returns what was written, but the actual size rounds up to the sub buffer size. Show that real size instead. Major changes: - Added "eventfs". This is the code that handles the inodes and dentries of tracefs/events directory. As there are thousands of events, and each event has several inodes and dentries that currently exist even when tracing is never used, they take up precious memory. Instead, eventfs will allocate the inodes and dentries in a JIT way (similar to what procfs does). There is now metadata that handles the events and subdirectories, and will create the inodes and dentries when they are used. Note, I also have patches that remove the subdirectory meta data, but will wait till the next merge window before applying them. It's a little more complex, and I want to make sure the dynamic code works properly before adding more complexity, making it easier to revert if need be. Minor changes: - Optimization to user event list traversal - Remove intermediate permission of tracefs files (note the intermediate permission removes all access to the files so it is not a security concern, but just a clean up) - Add the complex fix to FORTIFY_SOURCE to the kernel stack event logic - Other minor cleanups" * tag 'trace-v6.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (29 commits) tracefs: Remove kerneldoc from struct eventfs_file tracefs: Avoid changing i_mode to a temp value tracing/user_events: Optimize safe list traversals ftrace: Remove empty declaration ftrace_enable_daemon() and ftrace_disable_daemon() tracing: Remove unused function declarations tracing/filters: Document cpumask filtering tracing/filters: Further optimise scalar vs cpumask comparison tracing/filters: Optimise CPU vs cpumask filtering when the user mask is a single CPU tracing/filters: Optimise scalar vs cpumask filtering when the user mask is a single CPU tracing/filters: Optimise cpumask vs cpumask filtering when user mask is a single CPU tracing/filters: Enable filtering the CPU common field by a cpumask tracing/filters: Enable filtering a scalar field by a cpumask tracing/filters: Enable filtering a cpumask field by another cpumask tracing/filters: Dynamically allocate filter_pred.regex test: ftrace: Fix kprobe test for eventfs eventfs: Move tracing/events to eventfs eventfs: Implement removal of meta data from eventfs eventfs: Implement functions to create files and dirs when accessed eventfs: Implement eventfs lookup, read, open functions eventfs: Implement eventfs file add functions ...
2023-08-22tracefs: Avoid changing i_mode to a temp valueSishuai Gong1-2/+4
Right now inode->i_mode is updated twice to reach the desired value in tracefs_apply_options(). Because there is no lock protecting the two writes, other threads might read the intermediate value of inode->i_mode. Thread-1 Thread-2 // tracefs_apply_options() //e.g., acl_permission_check inode->i_mode &= ~S_IALLUGO; unsigned int mode = inode->i_mode; inode->i_mode |= opts->mode; I think there is no need to introduce a lock but it is better to only update inode->i_mode ONCE, so the readers will either see the old or latest value, rather than an intermediate/temporary value. Note, the race is not a security concern as the intermediate value is more locked down than either the start or end version. This is more just to do the conversion cleanly.

2023-07-31eventfs: Move tracing/events to eventfsAjay Kaher1-0/+18
Up until now, /sys/kernel/tracing/events was no different than any other part of tracefs. The files and directories within the events directory was created when the tracefs was mounted, and also created for the instances in /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/<instance>/events. Most of these files and directories will never be referenced. Since there are thousands of these files and directories they spend their time wasting precious memory resources. Move the "events" directory to the new eventfs. The eventfs will take the meta data of the events that they represent and store that. When the files in the events directory are referenced, the dentry and inodes to represent them are then created. When the files are no longer referenced, they are freed. This saves the precious memory resources that were wasted on these seldom referenced dentries and inodes.

2023-01-19fs: port ->mkdir() to pass mnt_idmapChristian Brauner1-1/+1
Convert to struct mnt_idmap. Last cycle we merged the necessary infrastructure in 256c8aed2b42 ("fs: introduce dedicated idmap type for mounts"). This is just the conversion to struct mnt_idmap. Currently we still pass around the plain namespace that was attached to a mount. This is in general pretty convenient but it makes it easy to conflate namespaces that are relevant on the filesystem with namespaces that are relevent on the mount level. Especially for non-vfs developers without detailed knowledge in this area this can be a potential source for bugs. Once the conversion to struct mnt_idmap is done all helpers down to the really low-level helpers will take a struct mnt_idmap argument instead of two namespace arguments. This way it becomes impossible to conflate the two eliminating the possibility of any bugs. All of the vfs and all filesystems only operate on struct mnt_idmap.

Users may have explicitly configured their tracefs permissions; we shouldn't overwrite those just because a second mount appeared. Only clobber if the options were provided at mount time. Note: the previous behavior was especially surprising in the presence of automounted /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/. Existing behavior: ## Pre-existing status: tracefs is 0755. # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/tracing/ drwxr-xr-x ## (Re)trigger the automount. # umount /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/. drwx------ ## Unexpected: the automount changed mode for other mount instances. # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/tracing/ drwx------ New behavior (after this change): ## Pre-existing status: tracefs is 0755. # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/tracing/ drwxr-xr-x ## (Re)trigger the automount. # umount /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/. drwxr-xr-x ## Expected: the automount does not change other mount instances. # stat -c '%A' /sys/kernel/tracing/ drwxr-xr-x Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220826174353.2.Iab6e5ea57963d6deca5311b27fb7226790d44406@changeid Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 4282d60689d4f ("tracefs: Add new tracefs file system") Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2022-02-25tracefs: Set the group ownership in apply_options() not parse_options()Steven Rostedt (Google)1-2/+3
Al Viro brought it to my attention that the dentries may not be filled when the parse_options() is called, causing the call to set_gid() to possibly crash. It should only be called if parse_options() succeeds totally anyway. He suggested the logical place to do the update is in apply_options().

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "New: - The Real Time Linux Analysis (RTLA) tool is added to the tools directory. - Can safely filter on user space pointers with: field.ustring ~ "match-string" - eprobes can now be filtered like any other event. - trace_marker(_raw) now uses stream_open() to allow multiple threads to safely write to it. Note, this could possibly break existing user space, but we will not know until we hear about it, and then can revert the change if need be. - New field in events to display when bottom halfs are disabled. - Sorting of the ftrace functions are now done at compile time instead of at bootup. Infrastructure changes to support future efforts: - Added __rel_loc type for trace events. Similar to __data_loc but the offset to the dynamic data is based off of the location of the descriptor and not the beginning of the event. Needed for user defined events. - Some simplification of event trigger code. - Make synthetic eve
