Subject: [PATCH] uprobes/x86: emulate push insns for uprobe on x86
Date:   Thu, 9 Nov 2017 00:01:55 -0800

Uprobe is a tracing mechanism for userspace programs.
Typical uprobe will incur overhead of two traps.
First trap is caused by replaced trap insn, and
the second trap is to execute the original displaced
insn in user space.

To reduce the overhead, kernel provides hooks
for architectures to emulate the original insn
and skip the second trap. In x86, emulation
is done for certain branch insns.

This patch extends the emulation to "push <reg>"
insns. These insns are typical in the beginning
of the function. For example, bcc
in https://github.com/iovisor/bcc repo provides
tools to measure funclantency, detect memleak, etc.
The tools will place uprobes in the beginning of
function and possibly uretprobes at the end of function.
This patch is able to reduce the trap overhead for
uprobe from 2 to 1.

Without this patch, uretprobe will typically incur
three traps. With this patch, if the function starts
with "push" insn, the number of traps can be
reduced from 3 to 2.

An experiment was conducted on two local VMs,
fedora 26 64-bit VM and 32-bit VM, both 4 processors
and 4GB memory, booted with latest x86/urgent (and this patch).
The host is MacBook with intel i7 processor.

The test program looks like
  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <stdlib.h>
  #include <time.h>
  #include <sys/time.h>

  static void test() __attribute__((noinline));
  void test() {}
  int main() {
    struct timeval start, end;

    gettimeofday(&start, NULL);
    for (int i = 0; i < 1000000; i++) {
      test();
    }
    gettimeofday(&end, NULL);

    printf("%ld\n", ((end.tv_sec * 1000000 + end.tv_usec)
                     - (start.tv_sec * 1000000 + start.tv_usec)));
    return 0;
  }

The program is compiled without optimization, and
the first insn for function "test" is "push %rbp".
The host is relatively idle.

Before the test run, the uprobe is inserted as below for uprobe:
  echo 'p <binary>:<test_func_offset>' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
  echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/enable
and for uretprobe:
  echo 'r <binary>:<test_func_offset>' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
  echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/uprobes/enable

Unit: microsecond(usec) per loop iteration

x86_64          W/ this patch   W/O this patch
uprobe          1.55            3.1
uretprobe       2.0             3.6

x86_32          W/ this patch   W/O this patch
uprobe          1.41            3.5
uretprobe       1.75            4.0

You can see that this patch significantly reduced the overhead,
50% for uprobe and 44% for uretprobe on x86_64, and even more
on x86_32.
