Subject: [PATCH] kretprobe: avoid re-registration of the same kretprobe earlier

Our system encountered a re-init error when re-registering same kretprobe,
where the kretprobe_instance in rp->free_instances is illegally accessed
after re-init.

Implementation to avoid re-registration has been introduced for kprobe
before, but lags for register_kretprobe(). We must check if kprobe has
been re-registered before re-initializing kretprobe, otherwise it will
destroy the data struct of kretprobe registered, which can lead to memory
leak, system crash, also some unexpected behaviors.

we use check_kprobe_rereg() to check if kprobe has been re-registered
before calling register_kretprobe(), for giving a warning message and
terminate registration process.

Masami,

Can you review this patch, and also, should this go to -rc and stable?

Ah, OK. Anyway if re-register happens on kretprobe, it must lose instances
on the list before checking re-register in register_kprobe().
So the idea looks good to me.

If you call this here, you must make sure kprobe_addr() is called on rp->kp.
But if kretprobe_blacklist_size == 0, kprobe_addr() is not called before
this check. So it should be in between kprobe_on_func_entry() and
kretprobe_blacklist_size check, like this

if (!kprobe_on_func_entry(rp->kp.addr, rp->kp.symbol_name, rp->kp.offset))
return -EINVAL;

addr = kprobe_addr(&rp->kp);
if (IS_ERR(addr))
return PTR_ERR(addr);
rp->kp.addr = addr;

ret = check_kprobe_rereg(&rp->kp);
if (WARN_ON(ret))
return ret;

if (kretprobe_blacklist_size) {
for (i = 0; > > + ret = check_kprobe_rereg(&rp->kp);

Hi steven, Masami,
We have encountered a problem, when we attempted to use steven's suggestion as following,

>>> If you call this here, you must make sure kprobe_addr() is called on rp->kp.
>>> But if kretprobe_blacklist_size == 0, kprobe_addr() is not called before

>>> return PTR_ERR(addr);
>>> rp->kp.addr = addr;

//there exists no-atomic operation risk, we should not modify any rp->kp's information, not all arch ensure atomic operation here.

>>>

>>> if (WARN_ON(ret))
>>> return ret;
>>>
>>> if (kretprobe_blacklist_size) {
>>> for (i = 0; > > + ret = check_kprobe_rereg(&rp->kp);

it returns failure from register_kprobe() end called by register_kretprobe() when
we registered a kretprobe through .symbol_name at first time(through .addr is OK),
kprobe_addr() called at the begaining of register_kprobe() will recheck and
failed at following place because at this time we symbol_name is not NULL and addr is also.

static kprobe_opcode_t *_kprobe_addr(const char *symbol_name,
unsigned int offset)
{
if ((symbol_name && addr) || (!symbol_name && !addr)) //we failed here


So we attempted to move this sentence rp->kp.addr = addr to __get_valid_kprobe() like this to
avoid explict usage of rp->kp.addr = addr in register_kretprobe().

diff --git a/kernel/kprobes.c b/kernel/kprobes.c
index dd5821f753e6..ea014779edfe 100644

But it also failed when we second time attempted to register a same kretprobe, it is also
becasue symbol_name and addr is not NULL when we used __get_valid_kprobe().

So it seems has no idea expect for modifying _kprobe_addr() like following this, the reason is that
the patch 0bd476e6c671 ("kallsyms: unexport kallsyms_lookup_name() and kallsyms_on_each_symbol()")
has telled us we'd better use symbol name to register but not address anymore.

{
- if ((symbol_name && addr) || (!symbol_name && !addr))

goto invalid;

For us, this modification has not caused a big impact on other modules, only expects a little
influence on bpf from calling trace_kprobe_on_func_entry(), it can not use addr to fill in
rp.kp in struct trace_event_call anymore.

So i want to know your views, and i will resend this patch soon.

thanks,

Good catch! Yes, it will reject if both kp->addr and kp->symbol are set.

What the "second time" means? If you reuse the kretprobe (and kprobe) you must
reset (cleanup) the kp->addr or kp->symbol_name. That is the initial state.
I think the API should not allow users to enter inconsistent information.

No, there are cases that the user will set only kp->addr, but no kp->symbol_name.

OK, I think it is simpler to check the rp->kp.addr && rp->kp.symbol_name
because it is not allowed (it can lead inconsistent setting).

How about this code? Is this work for you?

I need Wangshaobo's confirmation, because this is essentially a kind of programming bug,
not a runtime bug. kprobes user must check the kprobe(kretprobe) must be unregistered
and cleaned up before reusing it. (I recommend to re-alloc new data structure each time)

For example, if you re-register your driver/filesystem without releasing, it will
break the kernel.

Dear Masami and Steve,

I have sent v2 but still have confusions:

above sentence can be removed because of kprobe_on_func_entry() do it:

kprobe_on_func_entry()

     -=>_kprobe_addr() {if (rp->kp.addr && rp->kp.symbol_name) ...}

> + /* If only rp->kp.addr is specified, check reregistering kprobes */
> + if (rp->kp.addr && check_kprobe_rereg(&rp->kp))
> + return -EINVAL;

for arch arm64,x86_64, above sentence can be moved behind following
sentence.

kprobe_on_func_entry()

    -=>arch_kprobe_on_func_entry() {kp->offset can not be 0 ; ...}

So if offset of kprobe if not 0, do not waste time to excute above sentence.


But for Arch ppc64,  I still not figure out better one solution.


Thank you
