2026-01-30tracing: Fix crash on synthetic stacktrace field usageSteven Rostedt2-1/+16
commit 90f9f5d64cae4e72defd96a2a22760173cb3c9ec upstream. When creating a synthetic event based on an existing synthetic event that had a stacktrace field and the new synthetic event used that field a kernel crash occurred: ~# cd /sys/kernel/tracing ~# echo 's:stack unsigned long stack[];' > dynamic_events ~# echo 'hist:keys=prev_pid:s0=common_stacktrace if prev_state & 3' >> events/sched/sched_switch/trigger ~# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:s1=$s0:onmatch(sched.sched_switch).trace(stack,$s1)' >> events/sched/sched_switch/trigger The above creates a synthetic event that takes a stacktrace when a task schedules out in a non-running state and passes that stacktrace to the sched_switch event when that task schedules back in. It triggers the "stack" synthetic event that has a stacktrace as its field (called "stack"). ~# echo 's:syscall_stack s64 id; unsigned long stack[];' >> dynamic_events ~# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:s2=stack' >> events/synthetic/stack/trigger ~# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:s3=$s2,i0=id:onmatch(synthetic.stack).trace(syscall_stack,$i0,$s3)' >> events/raw_syscalls/sys_exit/trigger The above makes another synthetic event called "syscall_stack" that attaches the first synthetic event (stack) to the sys_exit trace event and records the stacktrace from the stack event with the id of the system call that is exiting. When enabling this event (or using it in a historgram): ~# echo 1 > events/synthetic/syscall_stack/enable Produces a kernel crash!

In trace_event_raw_event_synth() the event is field is still treated as a dynamic array, but the retrieval of the data is considered a normal field, and the reference is just the meta data: // Meta data is retrieved instead of a dynamic array str_val = (char *)(long)var_ref_vals[val_idx]; // Then when it tries to process it: len = *((unsigned long *)str_val) + 1; It triggers a kernel page fault. To fix this, first when defining the fields of the first synthetic event, set the filter type to FILTER_STACKTRACE. This is used later by the second synthetic event to know that this field is a stacktrace. When creating the field of the new synthetic event, have it use this FILTER_STACKTRACE to know to create a stacktrace field to copy the stacktrace into.

2026-01-11tracing: Fix fixed array of synthetic eventSteven Rostedt1-1/+0
commit 47ef834209e5981f443240d8a8b45bf680df22aa upstream. The commit 4d38328eb442d ("tracing: Fix synth event printk format for str fields") replaced "%.*s" with "%s" but missed removing the number size of the dynamic and static strings. The commit e1a453a57bc7 ("tracing: Do not add length to print format in synthetic events") fixed the dynamic part but did not fix the static part. That is, with the commands: # echo 's:wake_lat char[] wakee; u64 delta;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events # echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs if !(common_flags & 0x18)' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/trigger # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(wake_lat,next_comm,$delta)' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger That caused the output of: <idle>-0 [001] d..5. 193.428167: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)sshd-sessiondelta=155 sshd-session-879 [001] d..5. 193.811080: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)kworker/u34:5delta=58 <idle>-0 [002] d..5. 193.811198: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)bashdelta=91 The commit e1a453a57bc7 fixed the part where the synthetic event had "char[] wakee". But if one were to replace that with a static size string: # echo 's:wake_lat char[16] wakee; u64 delta;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events Where "wakee" is defined as "char[16]" and not "char[]" making it a static size, the code triggered the "(efaul)" again. Remove the added STR_VAR_LEN_MAX size as the string is still going to be nul terminated.

2026-01-11ftrace: bpf: Fix IPMODIFY + DIRECT in modify_ftrace_direct()Song Liu1-9/+31
[ Upstream commit 3e9a18e1c3e931abecf501cbb23d28d69f85bb56 ] ftrace_hash_ipmodify_enable() checks IPMODIFY and DIRECT ftrace_ops on the same kernel function. When needed, ftrace_hash_ipmodify_enable() calls ops->ops_func() to prepare the direct ftrace (BPF trampoline) to share the same function as the IPMODIFY ftrace (livepatch). ftrace_hash_ipmodify_enable() is called in register_ftrace_direct() path, but not called in modify_ftrace_direct() path. As a result, the following operations will break livepatch: 1. Load livepatch to a kernel function; 2. Attach fentry program to the kernel function; 3. Attach fexit program to the kernel function. After 3, the kernel function being used will not be the livepatched version, but the original version. Fix this by adding __ftrace_hash_update_ipmodify() to __modify_ftrace_direct() and adjust some logic around the call.

2025-12-01ftrace: Fix BPF fexit with livepatchSong Liu1-6/+14
[ Upstream commit 56b3c85e153b84f27e6cff39623ba40a1ad299d3 ] When livepatch is attached to the same function as bpf trampoline with a fexit program, bpf trampoline code calls register_ftrace_direct() twice. The first time will fail with -EAGAIN, and the second time it will succeed. This requires register_ftrace_direct() to unregister the address on the first attempt. Otherwise, the bpf trampoline cannot attach. Here is an easy way to reproduce this issue: insmod samples/livepatch/livepatch-sample.ko bpftrace -e 'fexit:cmdline_proc_show {}' ERROR: Unable to attach probe: fexit:vmlinux:cmdline_proc_show... Fix this by cleaning up the hash when register_ftrace_function_nolock hits errors. Also, move the code that resets ops->func and ops->trampoline to the error path of register_ftrace_direct(); and add a helper function reset_direct() in register_ftrace_direct() and unregister_ftrace_direct().

[ Upstream commit 80f0d631dcc76ee1b7755bfca1d8417d91d71414 ] The function create_field_var() allocates memory for 'val' through create_hist_field() inside parse_atom(), and for 'var' through create_var(), which in turn allocates var->type and var->var.name internally. Simply calling kfree() to release these structures will result in memory leaks. Use destroy_hist_field() to properly free 'val', and explicitly release the memory of var->type and var->var.name before freeing 'var' itself.

2025-10-02minmax: make generic MIN() and MAX() macros available everywhereLinus Torvalds1-2/+0
[ Upstream commit 1a251f52cfdc417c84411a056bc142cbd77baef4 ] This just standardizes the use of MIN() and MAX() macros, with the very traditional semantics. The goal is to use these for C constant expressions and for top-level / static initializers, and so be able to simplify the min()/max() macros. These macro names were used by various kernel code - they are very traditional, after all - and all such users have been fixed up, with a few different approaches: - trivial duplicated macro definitions have been removed Note that 'trivial' here means that it's obviously kernel code that already included all the major kernel headers, and thus gets the new generic MIN/MAX macros automatically. - non-trivial duplicated macro definitions are guarded with #ifndef This is the "yes, they define their own versions, but no, the include situation is not entirely obvious, and maybe they don't get the generic version automatically" case. - strange use case #1 A couple of drivers decided that the way they want to describe their versioning is with #define MAJ 1 #define MIN 2 #define DRV_VERSION __stringify(MAJ) "." __stringify(MIN) which adds zero value and I just did my Alexander the Great impersonation, and rewrote that pointless Gordian knot as #define DRV_VERSION "1.2" instead. - strange use case #2 A couple of drivers thought that it's a good idea to have a random 'MIN' or 'MAX' define for a value or index into a table, rather than the traditional macro that takes arguments. These values were re-written as C enum's instead. The new function-line macros only expand when followed by an open parenthesis, and thus don't clash with enum use. Happily, there weren't really all that many of these cases, and a lot of users already had the pattern of using '#ifndef' guarding (or in one case just using '#undef MIN') before defining their own private version that does the same thing. I left such cases alone.

2025-09-19tracing: Fix tracing_marker may trigger page fault during preempt_disableLuo Gengkun1-2/+2
[ Upstream commit 3d62ab32df065e4a7797204a918f6489ddb8a237 ] Both tracing_mark_write and tracing_mark_raw_write call __copy_from_user_inatomic during preempt_disable. But in some case, __copy_from_user_inatomic may trigger page fault, and will call schedule() subtly. And if a task is migrated to other cpu, the following warning will be trigger: if (RB_WARN_ON(cpu_buffer, !local_read(&cpu_buffer->committing))) An example can illustrate this issue: process flow CPU --------------------------------------------------------------------- tracing_mark_raw_write(): cpu:0 ... ring_buffer_lock_reserve(): cpu:0 ... cpu = raw_smp_processor_id() cpu:0 cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu] cpu:0 ... ... __copy_from_user_inatomic(): cpu:0 ... # page fault do_mem_abort(): cpu:0 ... # Call schedule schedule() cpu:0 ... # the task schedule to cpu1 __buffer_unlock_commit(): cpu:1 ... ring_buffer_unlock_commit(): cpu:1 ... cpu = raw_smp_processor_id() cpu:1 cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu] cpu:1 As shown above, the process will acquire cpuid twice and the return values are not the same. To fix this problem using copy_from_user_nofault instead of __copy_from_user_inatomic, as the former performs 'access_ok' before copying.

2025-09-04ftrace: Fix potential warning in trace_printk_seq during ftrace_dumpTengda Wu1-2/+2
[ Upstream commit 4013aef2ced9b756a410f50d12df9ebe6a883e4a ] When calling ftrace_dump_one() concurrently with reading trace_pipe, a WARN_ON_ONCE() in trace_printk_seq() can be triggered due to a race condition. The issue occurs because: CPU0 (ftrace_dump) CPU1 (reader) echo z > /proc/sysrq-trigger !trace_empty(&iter) trace_iterator_reset(&iter) <- len = size = 0 cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe trace_find_next_entry_inc(&iter) __find_next_entry ring_buffer_empty_cpu <- all empty return NULL trace_printk_seq(&iter.seq) WARN_ON_ONCE(s->seq.len >= s->seq.size) In the context between trace_empty() and trace_find_next_entry_inc() during ftrace_dump, the ring buffer data was consumed by other readers. This caused trace_find_next_entry_inc to return NULL, failing to populate `iter.seq`. At this point, due to the prior trace_iterator_reset, both `iter.seq.len` and `iter.seq.size` were set to 0. Since they are equal, the WARN_ON_ONCE condition is triggered. Move the trace_printk_seq() into the if block that checks to make sure the return value of trace_find_next_entry_inc() is non-NULL in ftrace_dump_one(), ensuring the 'iter.seq' is properly populated before subsequent operations.

2025-08-28ftrace: Also allocate and copy hash for reading of filter filesSteven Rostedt1-9/+10
commit bfb336cf97df7b37b2b2edec0f69773e06d11955 upstream. Currently the reader of set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace just adds the pointer to the global tracer hash to its iterator. Unlike the writer that allocates a copy of the hash, the reader keeps the pointer to the filter hashes. This is problematic because this pointer is static across function calls that release the locks that can update the global tracer hashes. This can cause UAF and similar bugs. Allocate and copy the hash for reading the filter files like it is done for the writers. This not only fixes UAF bugs, but also makes the code a bit simpler as it doesn't have to differentiate when to free the iterator's hash between writers and readers.

commit b5e8acc14dcb314a9b61ff19dcd9fdd0d88f70df upstream. When a module is loaded, it adds trace events defined by the module. It may also need to modify the modules trace printk formats to replace enum names with their values. If two modules are loaded at the same time, the adding of the event to the ftrace_events list can corrupt the walking of the list in the code that is modifying the printk format strings and crash the kernel. The addition of the event should take the trace_event_sem for write while it adds the new event. Also add a lockdep_assert_held() on that semaphore in __trace_add_event_dirs() as it iterates the list.

The problem is when a module triggers an issue with ftrace and sets ftrace_disable. The ftrace_disable is set when an anomaly is discovered and to prevent any more damage, ftrace stops all text modification. The issue that happened was that the ftrace_disable stops more than just the text modification. When a module is loaded, its init functions can also be traced. Because kallsyms deletes the init functions after a module has loaded, ftrace saves them when the module is loaded and function tracing is enabled. This allows the output of the function trace to show the init function names instead of just their raw memory addresses. When a module is removed, ftrace_release_mod() is called, and if ftrace_disable is set, it just returns without doing anything more. The problem here is that it leaves the mod_list still around and if kallsyms is called, it will call into this code and access the module memory that has already been freed as it will return: strscpy(module_name, mod_map->mod->name, MODULE_NAME_LEN); Where the "mod" no longer exists and triggers a UAF bug.

2025-06-19tracing: Move histogram trigger variables from stack to per CPU structureSteven Rostedt1-15/+105
[ Upstream commit 7ab0fc61ce73040f89b12d76a8279995ec283541 ] The histogram trigger has three somewhat large arrays on the kernel stack: unsigned long entries[HIST_STACKTRACE_DEPTH]; u64 var_ref_vals[TRACING_MAP_VARS_MAX]; char compound_key[HIST_KEY_SIZE_MAX]; Checking the function event_hist_trigger() stack frame size, it currently uses 816 bytes for its stack frame due to these variables! Instead, allocate a per CPU structure that holds these arrays for each context level (normal, softirq, irq and NMI). That is, each CPU will have 4 of these structures. This will be allocated when the first histogram trigger is enabled and freed when the last is disabled. When the histogram callback triggers, it will request this structure. The request will disable preemption, get the per CPU structure at the index of the per CPU variable, and increment that variable. The callback will use the arrays in this structure to perform its work and then release the structure. That in turn will simply decrement the per CPU index and enable preemption. Moving the variables from the kernel stack to the per CPU structure brings the stack frame of event_hist_trigger() down to just 112 bytes.

commit e333332657f615ac2b55aa35565c4a882018bbe9 upstream. When using the stacktrace trigger command to trace syscalls, the preemption count was consistently reported as 1 when the system call event itself had 0 ("."). For example: root@ubuntu22-vm:/sys/kernel/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_read $ echo stacktrace > trigger $ echo 1 > enable sshd-416 [002] ..... 232.864910: sys_read(fd: a, buf: 556b1f3221d0, count: 8000) sshd-416 [002] ...1. 232.864913: <stack trace> => ftrace_syscall_enter => syscall_trace_enter => do_syscall_64 => entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe The root cause is that the trace framework disables preemption in __DO_TRACE before invoking the trigger callback. Use the tracing_gen_ctx_dec() that will accommodate for the increase of the preemption count in __DO_TRACE when calling the callback. The result is the accurate reporting of: sshd-410 [004] ..... 210.117660: sys_read(fd: 4, buf: 559b725ba130, count: 40000) sshd-410 [004] ..... 210.117662: <stack trace> => ftrace_syscall_enter => syscall_trace_enter => do_syscall_64 => entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: ce33c845b030c ("tracing: Dump stacktrace trigger to the corresponding instance") Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250512094246.1167956-1-dolinux.peng@gmail.com Signed-off-by: pengdonglin <dolinux.peng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

[ Upstream commit fd837de3c9cb1a162c69bc1fb1f438467fe7f2f5 ] Since the shared trace_probe_log variable can be accessed and modified via probe event create operation of kprobe_events, uprobe_events, and dynamic_events, it should be protected. In the dynamic_events, all operations are serialized by `dyn_event_ops_mutex`. But kprobe_events and uprobe_events interfaces are not serialized. To solve this issue, introduces dyn_event_create(), which runs create() operation under the mutex, for kprobe_events and uprobe_events. This also uses lockdep to check the mutex is held when using trace_probe_log* APIs.

2025-05-02tracing: Verify event formats that have "%*p.."Steven Rostedt1-0/+7
[ Upstream commit ea8d7647f9ddf1f81e2027ed305299797299aa03 ] The trace event verifier checks the formats of trace events to make sure that they do not point at memory that is not in the trace event itself or in data that will never be freed. If an event references data that was allocated when the event triggered and that same data is freed before the event is read, then the kernel can crash by reading freed memory. The verifier runs at boot up (or module load) and scans the print formats of the events and checks their arguments to make sure that dereferenced pointers are safe. If the format uses "%*p.." the verifier will ignore it, and that could be dangerous. Cover this case as well. Also add to the sample code a use case of "%*pbl".

commit a8c5b0ed89a3f2c81c6ae0b041394e6eea0e7024 upstream. The filter string testing uses strncpy_from_kernel/user_nofault() to retrieve the string to test the filter against.

commit 42ea22e754ba4f2b86f8760ca27f6f71da2d982c upstream. When the kernel contains a large number of functions that can be traced, the loop in ftrace_graph_set_hash() may take a lot of time to execute. This may trigger the softlockup watchdog. Add cond_resched() within the loop to allow the kernel to remain responsive even when processing a large number of functions. This matches the cond_resched() that is used in other locations of the code that iterates over all functions that can be traced.

2025-04-25tracing: Do not add length to print format in synthetic eventsSteven Rostedt1-1/+0
commit e1a453a57bc76be678bd746f84e3d73f378a9511 upstream. The following causes a vsnprintf fault: # echo 's:wake_lat char[] wakee; u64 delta;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events # echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs if !(common_flags & 0x18)' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/trigger # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(wake_lat,next_comm,$delta)' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger Because the synthetic event's "wakee" field is created as a dynamic string (even though the string copied is not). The print format to print the dynamic string changed from "%*s" to "%s" because another location (__set_synth_event_print_fmt()) exported this to user space, and user space did not need that. But it is still used in print_synth_event(), and the output looks like: <idle>-0 [001] d..5. 193.428167: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)sshd-sessiondelta=155 sshd-session-879 [001] d..5. 193.811080: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)kworker/u34:5delta=58 <idle>-0 [002] d..5. 193.811198: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)bashdelta=91 bash-880 [002] d..5. 193.811371: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)kworker/u35:2delta=21 <idle>-0 [001] d..5. 193.811516: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)sshd-sessiondelta=129 sshd-session-879 [001] d..5. 193.967576: wake_lat: wakee=(efault)kworker/u34:5delta=50 The length isn't needed as the string is always nul terminated.

commit 4d38328eb442dc06aec4350fd9594ffa6488af02 upstream. The printk format for synth event uses "%.*s" to print string fields, but then only passes the pointer part as var arg. Replace %.*s with %s as the C string is guaranteed to be null-terminated. The output in print fmt should never have been updated as __get_str() handles the string limit because it can access the length of the string in the string meta data that is saved in the ring buffer.

commit 21581dd4e7ff6c07d0ab577e3c32b13a74b31522 upstream. Currently, using synth_event_delete() will fail if the event is being used (tracing in progress), but that is normally done in the module exit function. At that stage, failing is problematic as returning a non-zero status means the module will become locked (impossible to unload or reload again). Instead, ensure the module exit function does not get called in the first place by increasing the module refcnt when the event is enabled.

2025-04-10tracing: Fix use-after-free in print_graph_function_flags during tracer ↵Tengda Wu3-4/+1
switching commit 7f81f27b1093e4895e87b74143c59c055c3b1906 upstream. Kairui reported a UAF issue in print_graph_function_flags() during ftrace stress testing [1]. This issue can be reproduced if puting a 'mdelay(10)' after 'mutex_unlock(&trace_types_lock)' in s_start(), and executing the following script: $ echo function_graph > current_tracer $ cat trace > /dev/null & $ sleep 5 # Ensure the 'cat' reaches the 'mdelay(10)' point $ echo timerlat > current_tracer The root cause lies in the two calls to print_graph_function_flags within print_trace_line during each s_show(): * One through 'iter->trace->print_line()'; * Another through 'event->funcs->trace()', which is hidden in print_trace_fmt() before print_trace_line returns. Tracer switching only updates the former, while the latter continues to use the print_line function of the old tracer, which in the script above is print_graph_function_flags. Moreover, when switching from the 'function_graph' tracer to the 'timerlat' tracer, s_start only calls graph_trace_close of the 'function_graph' tracer to free 'iter->private', but does not set it to NULL. This provides an opportunity for 'event->funcs->trace()' to use an invalid 'iter->private'. To fix this issue, set 'iter->private' to NULL immediately after freeing it in graph_trace_close(), ensuring that an invalid pointer is not passed to other tracers. Additionally, clean up the unnecessary 'iter->private = NULL' during each 'cat trace' when using wakeup and irqsoff tracers.

2025-04-10tracing: Correct the refcount if the hist/hist_debug file fails to openTengda Wu1-6/+18
[ Upstream commit 0b4ffbe4888a2c71185eaf5c1a02dd3586a9bc04 ] The function event_{hist,hist_debug}_open() maintains the refcount of 'file->tr' and 'file' through tracing_open_file_tr(). However, it does not roll back these counts on subsequent failure paths, resulting in a refcount leak. A very obvious case is that if the hist/hist_debug file belongs to a specific instance, the refcount leak will prevent the deletion of that instance, as it relies on the condition 'tr->ref == 1' within __remove_instance(). Fix this by calling tracing_release_file_tr() on all failure paths in event_{hist,hist_debug}_open() to correct the refcount.

[ Upstream commit 1bd13edbbed6e7e396f1aab92b224a4775218e68 ] Add poll syscall support on the `hist` file. The Waiter will be waken up when the histogram is updated with POLLIN. Currently, there is no way to wait for a specific event in userspace. So user needs to peek the `trace` periodicaly, or wait on `trace_pipe`. But it is not a good idea to peek at the `trace` for an event that randomly happens. And `trace_pipe` is not coming back until a page is filled with events. This allows a user to wait for a specific event on the `hist` file. User can set a histogram trigger on the event which they want to monitor and poll() on its `hist` file. Since this poll() returns POLLIN, the next poll() will return soon unless a read() happens on that hist file. NOTE: To read the hist file again, you must set the file offset to 0, but just for monitoring the event, you may not need to read the histogram.
