commit 89529d8b8f8daf92d9979382b8d2eb39966846ea upstream.
The trace_clock_global() tries to make sure the events between CPUs is
somewhat in order. A global value is used and updated by the latest read
of a clock. If one CPU is ahead by a little, and is read by another CPU, a
lock is taken, and if the timestamp of the other CPU is behind, it will
simply use the other CPUs timestamp.
The lock is also only taken with a "trylock" due to tracing, and strange
recursions can happen. The lock is not taken at all in NMI context.
In the case where the lock is not able to be taken, the non synced
timestamp is returned. But it will not be less than the saved global
timestamp.
The problem arises because when the time goes "backwards" the time
returned is the saved timestamp plus 1. If the lock is not taken, and the
plus one to the timestamp is returned, there's a small race that can cause
the time to go backwards!

trace_clock_global() {
ts = clock() [ 1000 ]
trylock(clock_lock) [ success ]
global_ts = ts; [ 1000 ]
<interrupted by NMI>
trace_clock_global() {
ts = clock() [ 999 ]
if (ts < global_ts)
ts = global_ts + 1 [ 1001 ]
trylock(clock_lock) [ fail ]
return ts [ 1001]
}
unlock(clock_lock);
return ts; [ 1000 ]
}
trace_clock_global() {
ts = clock() [ 1000 ]
if (ts < global_ts) [ false 1000 == 1000 ]
trylock(clock_lock) [ success ]
global_ts = ts; [ 1000 ]
unlock(clock_lock)
return ts; [ 1000 ]
}
The above case shows to reads of trace_clock_global() on the same CPU, but
the second read returns one less than the first read. That is, time when
backwards, and this is not what is allowed by trace_clock_global().
This was triggered by heavy tracing and the ring buffer checker that tests
for the clock going backwards:
Ring buffer clock went backwards: 20613921464 -> 20613921463

commit 4fdd595e4f9a1ff6d93ec702eaecae451cfc6591 upstream.
A while ago, when the "trace" file was opened, tracing was stopped, and
code was added to stop recording the comms to saved_cmdlines, for mapping
of the pids to the task name.
Code has been added that only records the comm if a trace event occurred,
and there's no reason to not trace it if the trace file is opened.

commit 85550c83da421fb12dc1816c45012e1e638d2b38 upstream.
The saved_cmdlines is used to map pids to the task name, such that the
output of the tracing does not just show pids, but also gives a human
readable name for the task.
If the name is not mapped, the output looks like this:
<...>-1316 [005] ...2 132.044039: ...
Instead of this:
gnome-shell-1316 [005] ...2 132.044039: ...
The names are updated when tracing is running, but are skipped if tracing
is stopped. Unfortunately, this stops the recording of the names if the
top level tracer is stopped, and not if there's other tracers active.
The recording of a name only happens when a new event is written into a
ring buffer, so there is no need to test if tracing is on or not. If
tracing is off, then no event is written and no need to test if tracing is
off or not.
Remove the check, as it hides the names of tasks for events in the
instance buffers.

commit b220c049d519 ("tracing: Check length before giving out
the filter buffer") adds length check to protect trace data
overflow introduced in 0fc1b09ff1ff, seems that this fix can't prevent
overflow entirely, the length check should also take the sizeof
entry->array[0] into account, since this array[0] is filled the
length of trace data and occupy addtional space and risk overflow.

commit 6c14133d2d3f768e0a35128faac8aa6ed4815051 upstream.
It was reported that a bug on arm64 caused a bad ip address to be used for
updating into a nop in ftrace_init(), but the error path (rightfully)
returned -EINVAL and not -EFAULT, as the bug caused more than one error to
occur. But because -EINVAL was returned, the ftrace_bug() tried to report
what was at the location of the ip address, and read it directly. This
caused the machine to panic, as the ip was not pointing to a valid memory
address.
Instead, read the ip address with copy_from_kernel_nofault() to safely
access the memory, and if it faults, report that the address faulted,
otherwise report what was in that location.

[ Upstream commit ff40e51043af63715ab413995ff46996ecf9583f ]
Commit 59438b46471a ("security,lockdown,selinux: implement SELinux lockdown")
added an implementation of the locked_down LSM hook to SELinux, with the aim
to restrict which domains are allowed to perform operations that would breach
lockdown. This is indirectly also getting audit subsystem involved to report
events. The latter is problematic, as reported by Ondrej and Serhei, since it
can bring down the whole system via audit:
1) The audit events that are triggered due to calls to security_locked_down()
can OOM kill a machine, see below details [0].
2) It also seems to be causing a deadlock via avc_has_perm()/slow_avc_audit()
when trying to wake up kauditd, for example, when using trace_sched_switch()
tracepoint, see details in [1]. Triggering this was not via some hypothetical
corner case, but with existing tools like runqlat & runqslower from bcc, for
example, which make use of this tracepoint. Rough call sequence goes like:
rq_lock(rq) -> -------------------------+
trace_sched_switch() -> |
bpf_prog_xyz() -> +-> deadlock
selinux_lockdown() -> |
audit_log_end() -> |
wake_up_interruptible() -> |
try_to_wake_up() -> |
rq_lock(rq) --------------+
What's worse is that the intention of 59438b46471a to further restrict lockdown
settings for specific applications in respect to the global lockdown policy is
completely broken for BPF. The SELinux policy rule for the current lockdown check
looks something like this:
allow <who> <who> : lockdown { <reason> };
However, this doesn't match with the 'current' task where the security_locked_down()
is executed, example: httpd does a syscall. There is a tracing program attached
to the syscall which triggers a BPF program to run, which ends up doing a
bpf_probe_read_kernel{,_str}() helper call. The selinux_lockdown() hook does
the permission check against 'current', that is, httpd in this example. httpd
has literally zero relation to this tracing program, and it would be nonsensical
having to write an SELinux policy rule against httpd to let the tracing helper
pass. The policy in this case needs to be against the entity that is installing
the BPF program. For example, if bpftrace would generate a histogram of syscall
counts by user space application:
bpftrace -e 'tracepoint:raw_syscalls:sys_enter { @[comm] = count(); }'
bpftrace would then go and generate a BPF program from this internally. One way
of doing it [for the sake of the example] could be to call bpf_get_current_task()
helper and then access current->comm via one of bpf_probe_read_kernel{,_str}()
helpers. So the program itself has nothing to do with httpd or any other random
app doing a syscall here. The BPF program _explicitly initiated_ the lockdown
check. The allow/deny policy belongs in the context of bpftrace: meaning, you
want to grant bpftrace access to use these helpers, but other tracers on the
system like my_random_tracer _not_.
Therefore fix all three issues at the same time by taking a completely different
approach for the security_locked_down() hook, that is, move the check into the
program verification phase where we actually retrieve the BPF func proto. This
also reliably gets the task (current) that is trying to install the BPF tracing
program, e.g. bpftrace/bcc/perf/systemtap/etc, and it also fixes the OOM since
we're moving this out of the BPF helper's fast-path which can be called several
millions of times per second.
The check is then also in line with other security_locked_down() hooks in the
system where the enforcement is performed at open/load time, for example,
open_kcore() for /proc/kcore access or module_sig_check() for module signatures
just to pick few random ones. What's out of scope in the fix as well as in
other security_locked_down() hook locations /outside/ of BPF subsystem is that
if the lockdown policy changes on the fly there is no retrospective action.
This requires a different discussion, potentially complex infrastructure, and
it's also not clear whether this can be solved generically. Either way, it is
out of scope for a suitable stable fix which this one is targeting. Note that
the breakage is specifically on 59438b46471a where it started to rely on 'current'
as UAPI behavior, and _not_ earlier infrastructure such as 9d1f8be5cf42 ("bpf:
Restrict bpf when kernel lockdown is in confidentiality mode").
[0] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1955585, Jakub Hrozek says:
I starting seeing this with F-34. When I run a container that is traced with
BPF to record the syscalls it is doing, auditd is flooded with messages like:
type=AVC msg=audit(1619784520.593:282387): avc: denied { confidentiality }
for pid=476 comm="auditd" lockdown_reason="use of bpf to read kernel RAM"
scontext=system_u:system_r:auditd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:auditd_t:s0
tclass=lockdown permissive=0
This seems to be leading to auditd running out of space in the backlog buffer
and eventually OOMs the machine.

commit aafe104aa9096827a429bc1358f8260ee565b7cc upstream.
It was reported that a fix to the ring buffer recursion detection would
cause a hung machine when performing suspend / resume testing. The
following backtrace was extracted from debugging that case:

With the following RIP:
RIP: 0010:native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x69/0x200
Since the fix to the recursion detection would allow a single recursion to
happen while tracing, this lead to the trace_clock_global() taking a spin
lock and then trying to take it again:
ring_buffer_lock_reserve() {
trace_clock_global() {
arch_spin_lock() {
queued_spin_lock_slowpath() {
/* lock taken */
(something else gets traced by function graph tracer)
ring_buffer_lock_reserve() {
trace_clock_global() {
arch_spin_lock() {
queued_spin_lock_slowpath() {
/* DEAD LOCK! */
Tracing should *never* block, as it can lead to strange lockups like the
above.
Restructure the trace_clock_global() code to instead of simply taking a
lock to update the recorded "prev_time" simply use it, as two events
happening on two different CPUs that calls this at the same time, really
doesn't matter which one goes first. Use a trylock to grab the lock for
updating the prev_time, and if it fails, simply try again the next time.
If it failed to be taken, that means something else is already updating
it.

commit 785e3c0a3a870e72dc530856136ab4c8dd207128 upstream.
The default max PID is set by PID_MAX_DEFAULT, and the tracing
infrastructure uses this number to map PIDs to the comm names of the
tasks, such output of the trace can show names from the recorded PIDs in
the ring buffer. This mapping is also exported to user space via the
"saved_cmdlines" file in the tracefs directory.
But currently the mapping expects the PIDs to be less than
PID_MAX_DEFAULT, which is the default maximum and not the real maximum.
Recently, systemd will increases the maximum value of a PID on the system,
and when tasks are traced that have a PID higher than PID_MAX_DEFAULT, its
comm is not recorded. This leads to the entire trace to have "<...>" as
the comm name, which is pretty useless.
Instead, keep the array mapping the size of PID_MAX_DEFAULT, but instead
of just mapping the index to the comm, map a mask of the PID
(PID_MAX_DEFAULT - 1) to the comm, and find the full PID from the
map_cmdline_to_pid array (that already exists).
This bug goes back to the beginning of ftrace, but hasn't been an issue
until user space started increasing the maximum value of PIDs.

commit 8c9af478c06bb1ab1422f90d8ecbc53defd44bc3 upstream.
# echo switch_mm:traceoff > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
will cause switch_mm to stop tracing by the traceoff command.
# echo -n switch_mm:traceoff > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
does nothing.
The reason is that the parsing in the write function only processes
commands if it finished parsing (there is white space written after the
command). That's to handle:
write(fd, "switch_mm:", 10);
write(fd, "traceoff", 8);
cases, where the command is broken over multiple writes.
The problem is if the file descriptor is closed, then the write call is
not processed, and the command needs to be processed in the release code.
The release code can handle matching of functions, but does not handle
commands.

commit 9deb193af69d3fd6dd8e47f292b67c805a787010 upstream.
Commit cbc3b92ce037 fixed an issue to modify the macros of the stack trace
event so that user space could parse it properly. Originally the stack
trace format to user space showed that the called stack was a dynamic
array. But it is not actually a dynamic array, in the way that other
dynamic event arrays worked, and this broke user space parsing for it. The
update was to make the array look to have 8 entries in it. Helper
functions were added to make it parse it correctly, as the stack was
dynamic, but was determined by the size of the event stored.
Although this fixed user space on how it read the event, it changed the
internal structure used for the stack trace event. It changed the array
size from [0] to [8] (added 8 entries). This increased the size of the
stack trace event by 8 words. The size reserved on the ring buffer was the
size of the stack trace event plus the number of stack entries found in
the stack trace. That commit caused the amount to be 8 more than what was
needed because it did not expect the caller field to have any size. This
produced 8 entries of garbage (and reading random data) from the stack
trace event:
<idle>-0 [002] d... 1976396.837549: <stack trace>
=> trace_event_raw_event_sched_switch
=> __traceiter_sched_switch
=> __schedule
=> schedule_idle
=> do_idle
=> cpu_startup_entry
=> secondary_startup_64_no_verify
=> 0xc8c5e150ffff93de
=> 0xffff93de
=> 0

=> 0xc8c5e17800000000
=> 0x1f30affff93de
=> 0x00000004
=> 0x200000000
Instead, subtract the size of the caller field from the size of the event
to make sure that only the amount needed to store the stack trace is
reserved.

commit 6f6be606e763f2da9fc21de00538c97fe4ca1492 upstream.
Part of the logic of the new time stamp code depends on the before_stamp and
the write_stamp to be different if the write_stamp does not match the last
event on the buffer, as it will be used to calculate the delta of the next
event written on the buffer.
The discard logic depends on this, as the next event to come in needs to
inject a full timestamp as it can not rely on the last event timestamp in
the buffer because it is unknown due to events after it being discarded. But
by changing the write_stamp back to the time before it, it forces the next
event to use a full time stamp, instead of relying on it.
The issue came when a full time stamp was used for the event, and
rb_time_delta() returns zero in that case. The update to the write_stamp
(which subtracts delta) made it not change. Then when the event is removed
from the buffer, because the before_stamp and write_stamp still match, the
next event written would calculate its delta from the write_stamp, but that
would be wrong as the write_stamp is of the time of the event that was
discarded.
In the case that the delta change being made to write_stamp is zero, set the
before_stamp to zero as well, and this will force the next event to inject a
full timestamp and not use the current write_stamp.

commit b220c049d5196dd94d992dd2dc8cba1a5e6123bf upstream.
When filters are used by trace events, a page is allocated on each CPU and
used to copy the trace event fields to this page before writing to the ring
buffer. The reason to use the filter and not write directly into the ring
buffer is because a filter may discard the event and there's more overhead
on discarding from the ring buffer than the extra copy.
The problem here is that there is no check against the size being allocated
when using this page. If an event asks for more than a page size while being
filtered, it will get only a page, leading to the caller writing more that
what was allocated.
Check the length of the request, and if it is more than PAGE_SIZE minus the
header default back to allocating from the ring buffer directly. The ring
buffer may reject the event if its too big anyway, but it wont overflow.

commit 256cfdd6fdf70c6fcf0f7c8ddb0ebd73ce8f3bc9 upstream.
The file /sys/kernel/tracing/events/enable is used to enable all events by
echoing in "1", or disabling all events when echoing in "0". To know if all
events are enabled, disabled, or some are enabled but not all of them,
cating the file should show either "1" (all enabled), "0" (all disabled), or
"X" (some enabled but not all of them). This works the same as the "enable"
files in the individule system directories (like tracing/events/sched/enable).
But when all events are enabled, the top level "enable" file shows "X". The
reason is that its checking the "ftrace" events, which are special events
that only exist for their format files. These include the format for the
function tracer events, that are enabled when the function tracer is
enabled, but not by the "enable" file. The check includes these events,
which will always be disabled, and even though all true events are enabled,
the top level "enable" file will show "X" instead of "1".
To fix this, have the check test the event's flags to see if it has the
"IGNORE_ENABLE" flag set, and if so, not test it.

commit da7f84cdf02fd5f66864041f45018b328911b722 upstream.
Eaerlier, tracing was disabled when reading the trace file. This behavior
was changed with:
commit 06e0a548bad0 ("tracing: Do not disable tracing when reading the

This doesn't seem to work with the latency tracers.
The above mentioned commit dit not only change the behavior but also added
an option to emulate the old behavior. The idea with this patch is to
enable this pause-on-trace option when the latency tracers are used.

commit 97c753e62e6c31a404183898d950d8c08d752dbd upstream.
Fix kprobe_on_func_entry() returns error code instead of false so that
register_kretprobe() can return an appropriate error code.
append_trace_kprobe() expects the kprobe registration returns -ENOENT
when the target symbol is not found, and it checks whether the target
module is unloaded or not. If the target module doesn't exist, it
defers to probe the target symbol until the module is loaded.
However, since register_kretprobe() returns -EINVAL instead of -ENOENT
in that case, it always fail on putting the kretprobe event on unloaded
modules. e.g.
Kprobe event:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo p xfs:xfs_end_io >> kprobe_events
[ 16.515574] trace_kprobe: This probe might be able to register after target module is loaded. Continue.
Kretprobe event: (p -> r)
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo r xfs:xfs_end_io >> kprobe_events
sh: write error: Invalid argument
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat error_log
[ 41.122514] trace_kprobe: error: Failed to register probe event
Command: r xfs:xfs_end_io
^
To fix this bug, change kprobe_on_func_entry() to detect symbol lookup
failure and return -ENOENT in that case. Otherwise it returns -EINVAL
or 0 (succeeded, given address is on the entry).

commit 7e0a9220467dbcfdc5bc62825724f3e52e50ab31 upstream.
On some archs, the idle task can call into cpu_suspend(). The cpu_suspend()
will disable or pause function graph tracing, as there's some paths in
bringing down the CPU that can have issues with its return address being
modified. The task_struct structure has a "tracing_graph_pause" atomic
counter, that when set to something other than zero, the function graph
tracer will not modify the return address.
The problem is that the tracing_graph_pause counter is initialized when the
function graph tracer is enabled. This can corrupt the counter for the idle
task if it is suspended in these architectures.
CPU 1 CPU 2
----- -----
do_idle()
cpu_suspend()
pause_graph_tracing()
task_struct->tracing_graph_pause++ (0 -> 1)
start_graph_tracing()
for_each_online_cpu(cpu) {
ftrace_graph_init_idle_task(cpu)
task-struct->tracing_graph_pause = 0 (1 -> 0)
unpause_graph_tracing()
task_struct->tracing_graph_pause-- (0 -> -1)
The above should have gone from 1 to zero, and enabled function graph
tracing again. But instead, it is set to -1, which keeps it disabled.
There's no reason that the field tracing_graph_pause on the task_struct can
not be initialized at boot up.

commit 7bb83f6fc4ee84e95d0ac0d14452c2619fb3fe70 upstream.
Enable the notrace function check on the architecture which doesn't
support kprobes on ftrace but support dynamic ftrace. This notrace
function check is not only for the kprobes on ftrace but also
sw-breakpoint based kprobes.
Thus there is no reason to limit this check for the arch which
supports kprobes on ftrace.
This also changes the dependency of Kconfig. Because kprobe event
uses the function tracer's address list for identifying notrace
function, if the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=n, it can not check whether
the target function is notrace or not.

commit 60efe21e5976d3d4170a8190ca76a271d6419754 upstream.
Disable ftrace selftests when any tracer (kernel command line options
like ftrace=, trace_events=, kprobe_events=, and boot-time tracing)
starts running because selftest can disturb it.
Currently ftrace= and trace_events= are checked, but kprobe_events
has a different flag, and boot-time tracing didn't checked. This unifies
the disabled flag and all of those boot-time tracing features sets
the flag.
This also fixes warnings on kprobe-event selftest
(CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST=y and CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS=y) with boot-time
tracing (ftrace.event.kprobes.EVENT.probes) like below;

[ Upstream commit 12cc126df82c96c89706aa207ad27c56f219047c ]
__module_address() needs to be called with preemption disabled or with
module_mutex taken. preempt_disable() is enough for read-only uses, which is
what this fix does. Also, module_put() does internal check for NULL, so drop
it as well.

Remove bpf_ prefix, which causes these helpers to be reported in verifier
dump as bpf_bpf_this_cpu_ptr() and bpf_bpf_per_cpu_ptr(), respectively. Lets
fix it as long as it is still possible before UAPI freezes on these helpers.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Fix userstacktrace option for instances
While writing an application that requires user stack trace option to
work in instances, I found that the instance option has a bug that
makes it a nop. The check for performing the user stack trace in an
instance, checks the top level options (not the instance options) to
determine if a user stack trace should be performed or not.
This is not only incorrect, but also confusing for users. It confused
me for a bit!"

tracing: Fix userstacktrace option for instances

When the instances were able to use their own options, the userstacktrace
option was left hardcoded for the top level. This made the instance
userstacktrace option bascially into a nop, and will confuse users that set
it, but nothing happens (I was confused when it happened to me!)

The current ring buffer logic checks to see if the updating of the event
buffer was interrupted, and if it is, it will try to fix up the before stamp
with the write stamp to make them equal again. This logic is flawed, because
if it is not interrupted, the two are guaranteed to be different, as the
current event just updated the before stamp before allocation. This
guarantees that the next event (this one or another interrupting one) will
think it interrupted the time updates of a previous event and inject an
absolute time stamp to compensate.
The correct logic is to always update the timestamps when |
