This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction

uprobes, mm, x86: Add the ability to install and remove uprobes breakpoints
Add uprobes support to the core kernel, with x86 support.
This commit adds the kernel facilities, the actual uprobes
user-space ABI and perf probe support comes in later commits.
General design:
Uprobes are maintained in an rb-tree indexed by inode and offset
(the offset here is from the start of the mapping). For a unique
(inode, offset) tuple, there can be at most one uprobe in the
rb-tree.
Since the (inode, offset) tuple identifies a unique uprobe, more
than one user may be interested in the same uprobe. This provides
the ability to connect multiple 'consumers' to the same uprobe.
Each consumer defines a handler and a filter (optional). The
'handler' is run every time the uprobe is hit, if it matches the
'filter' criteria.
The first consumer of a uprobe causes the breakpoint to be
inserted at the specified address and subsequent consumers are
appended to this list. On subsequent probes, the consumer gets
appended to the existing list of consumers. The breakpoint is
removed when the last consumer unregisters. For all other
unregisterations, the consumer is removed from the list of
consumers.
Given a inode, we get a list of the mms that have mapped the
inode. Do the actual registration if mm maps the page where a
probe needs to be inserted/removed.
We use a temporary list to walk through the vmas that map the
inode.
- The number of maps that map the inode, is not known before we
walk the rmap and keeps changing.
- extending vm_area_struct wasn't recommended, it's a
size-critical data structure.
- There can be more than one maps of the inode in the same mm.
We add callbacks to the mmap methods to keep an eye on text vmas
that are of interest to uprobes. When a vma of interest is mapped,
we insert the breakpoint at the right address.
Uprobe works by replacing the instruction at the address defined
by (inode, offset) with the arch specific breakpoint
instruction. We save a copy of the original instruction at the
uprobed address.
This is needed for:
a. executing the instruction out-of-line (xol).
b. instruction analysis for any subsequent fixups.
c. restoring the instruction back when the uprobe is unregistered.
We insert or delete a breakpoint instruction, and this
breakpoint instruction is assumed to be the smallest instruction
available on the platform. For fixed size instruction platforms
this is trivially true, for variable size instruction platforms
the breakpoint instruction is typically the smallest (often a
single byte).
Writing the instruction is done by COWing the page and changing
the instruction during the copy, this even though most platforms
allow atomic writes of the breakpoint instruction. This also
mirrors the behaviour of a ptrace() memory write to a PRIVATE
file map.
The core worker is derived from KSM's replace_page() logic.
In essence, similar to KSM:
a. allocate a new page and copy over contents of the page that
has the uprobed vaddr
b. modify the copy and insert the breakpoint at the required
address
c. switch the original page with the copy containing the
breakpoint
d. flush page tables.
replace_page() is being replicated here because of some minor
changes in the type of pages and also because Hugh Dickins had
plans to improve replace_page() for KSM specific work.
Instruction analysis on x86 is based on instruction decoder and
determines if an instruction can be probed and determines the
necessary fixups after singlestep. Instruction analysis is done
at probe insertion time so that we avoid having to repeat the
same analysis every time a probe is hit.
A lot of code here is due to the improvement/suggestions/inputs
from Peter Zijlstra.
Changelog:
(v10):
- Add code to clear REX.B prefix as suggested by Denys Vlasenko
and Masami Hiramatsu.
(v9):
- Use insn_offset_modrm as suggested by Masami Hiramatsu.
(v7):

- Use PTR_ERR to set the return value.
- No need to take reference to inode.
- use PTR_ERR to return error value.
- register and uprobe_unregister share code.

- Drop reference to inode before dropping reference to uprobe.
- Use i_size_read(inode) instead of inode->i_size.
- Ensure uprobe->consumers is NULL, before __uprobe_unregister() is called.
- Includes errno.h as recommended by Stephen Rothwell to fix a build issue
on sparc defconfig
- Remove restrictions while unregistering.
- Earlier code leaked inode references under some conditions while
registering/unregistering.
- Continue the vma-rmap walk even if the intermediate vma doesnt
meet the requirements.
- Validate the vma found by find_vma before inserting/removing the
breakpoint
- Call del_consumer under mutex_lock.
- Use hash locks.
- Handle mremap.
- Introduce find_least_offset_node() instead of close match logic in

- Uprobes no more depends on MM_OWNER; No reference to task_structs
while inserting/removing a probe.
- Uses read_mapping_page instead of grab_cache_page so that the pages
have valid content.
- pass NULL to get_user_pages for the task parameter.
- call SetPageUptodate on the new page allocated in write_opcode.
- fix leaking a reference to the new page under certain conditions.
- Include Instruction Decoder if Uprobes gets defined.
- Remove const attributes for instruction prefix arrays.
- Uses mm_context to know if the application is 32 bit.

Uprobes is the user-space counterpart to kprobes: they
|
|
|
|
|
enable instrumentation applications (such as 'perf probe')
|
|
|
|
|
to establish unintrusive probes in user-space binaries and
|
|
|
|
|
libraries, by executing handler functions when the probes
|
|
|
|
|
are hit by user-space applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
( These probes come in the form of single-byte breakpoints,
|
|
|
|
|
managed by the kernel and kept transparent to the probed
|
|
|
|
|
application. )

[PATCH v3] ipc: provide generic compat versions of IPC syscalls
When using the "compat" APIs, architectures will generally want to
be able to make direct syscalls to msgsnd(), shmctl(), etc., and
in the kernel we would want them to be handled directly by
compat_sys_xxx() functions, as is true for other compat syscalls.
However, for historical reasons, several of the existing compat IPC
syscalls do not do this. semctl() expects a pointer to the fourth
argument, instead of the fourth argument itself. msgsnd(), msgrcv()
and shmat() expect arguments in different order.
This change adds an ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC config option that can be
set to preserve this behavior for ports that use it (x86, sparc, powerpc,
s390, and mips). No actual semantics are changed for those architectures,
and there is only a minimal amount of code refactoring in ipc/compat.c.
Newer architectures like tile (and perhaps future architectures such
as arm64 and unicore64) should not select this option, and thus can
avoid having any IPC-specific code at all in their architecture-specific
compat layer. In the same vein, if this option is not selected, IPC_64
mode is assumed, since that's what the <asm-generic> headers expect.
The workaround code in "tile" for msgsnd() and msgrcv() is removed
with this change; it also fixes the bug that shmat() and semctl() were
not being properly handled.

seccomp: add system call filtering using BPF
[This patch depends on luto@mit.edu's no_new_privs patch:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/30/264
The whole series including Andrew's patches can be found here:
https://github.com/redpig/linux/tree/seccomp
Complete diff here:
https://github.com/redpig/linux/compare/1dc65fed...seccomp
]
This patch adds support for seccomp mode 2. Mode 2 introduces the
ability for unprivileged processes to install system call filtering
policy expressed in terms of a Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) program.
This program will be evaluated in the kernel for each system call
the task makes and computes a result based on data in the format
of struct seccomp_data.
A filter program may be installed by calling:
struct sock_fprog fprog = { ... };
...
prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP, SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER, &fprog);
The return value of the filter program determines if the system call is
allowed to proceed or denied. If the first filter program installed
allows prctl(2) calls, then the above call may be made repeatedly
by a task to further reduce its access to the kernel. All attached
programs must be evaluated before a system call will be allowed to
proceed.
Filter programs will be inherited across fork/clone and execve.
However, if the task attaching the filter is unprivileged
(!CAP_SYS_ADMIN) the no_new_privs bit will be set on the task. This
ensures that unprivileged tasks cannot attach filters that affect
privileged tasks (e.g., setuid binary).
There are a number of benefits to this approach. A few of which are
as follows:
- BPF has been exposed to userland for a long time
- BPF optimization (and JIT'ing) are well understood
- Userland already knows its ABI: system call numbers and desired
arguments
- No time-of-check-time-of-use vulnerable data accesses are possible.
- system call arguments are loaded on access only to minimize copying
required for system call policy decisions.
Mode 2 support is restricted to architectures that enable
HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER. In this patch, the primary dependency is on
syscall_get_arguments(). The full desired scope of this feature will
add a few minor additional requirements expressed later in this series.
Based on discussion, SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO and SECCOMP_RET_TRACE seem to be
the desired additional functionality.
No architectures are enabled in this patch.

seccomp: add system call filtering using BPF
[This patch depends on luto@mit.edu's no_new_privs patch:

]
This patch adds support for seccomp mode 2. Mode 2 introduces the
ability for unprivileged processes to install system call filtering
policy expressed in terms of a Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) program.
This program will be evaluated in the kernel for each system call
the task makes and computes a result based on data in the format
of struct seccomp_data.
A filter program may be installed by calling:
struct sock_fprog fprog = { ... };
...
prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP, SECCOMP_MODE_FILTER, &fprog);
The return value of the filter program determines if the system call is
allowed to proceed or denied. If the first filter program installed
allows prctl(2) calls, then the above call may be made repeatedly
by a task to further reduce its access to the kernel. All attached
programs must be evaluated before a system call will be allowed to
proceed.
Filter programs will be inherited across fork/clone and execve.
However, if the task attaching the filter is unprivileged
(!CAP_SYS_ADMIN) the no_new_privs bit will be set on the task. This
ensures that unprivileged tasks cannot attach filters that affect
privileged tasks (e.g., setuid binary).
There are a number of benefits to this approach. A few of which are
as follows:
- BPF has been exposed to userland for a long time
- BPF optimization (and JIT'ing) are well understood
- Userland already knows its ABI: system call numbers and desired
arguments
- No time-of-check-time-of-use vulnerable data accesses are possible.
- system call arguments are loaded on access only to minimize copying
required for system call policy decisions.
Mode 2 support is restricted to architectures that enable
HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER. In this patch, the primary dependency is on
syscall_get_arguments(). The full desired scope of this feature will
add a few minor additional requirements expressed later in this series.
Based on discussion, SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO and SECCOMP_RET_TRACE seem to be
the desired additional functionality.
No architectures are enabled in this patch.

dependencies
v7: (massive overhaul thanks to Indan, others)
- added CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER
- merged into seccomp.c
- minimal seccomp_filter.h
- no config option (part of seccomp)
- no new prctl
- doesn't break seccomp on systems without asm/syscall.h
(works but arg access always fails)
- dropped seccomp_init_task, extra free functions, ...
- dropped the no-asm/syscall.h code paths
- merges with network sk_run_filter and sk_chk_filter

- on block, note if the call was compat (so the # means something)
v5: - uses syscall_get_arguments
(indan@nul.nu,oleg@redhat.com, mcgrathr@chromium.org)
- uses union-based arg storage with hi/lo struct to
handle endianness. Compromises between the two alternate
proposals to minimize extra arg shuffling and account for
endianness assuming userspace uses offsetof().
