Subject: [PATCH 6/7] uprobes: Fix uprobe_copy_insn() race with itself
Date: Sun, 30 Sep 2012 21:42:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120930194224.GA11347@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120930194119.GA11278@redhat.com>
install_breakpoint() is called under mm->mmap_sem, this protects
set_swbp() but not uprobe_copy_insn(). Two or more different tasks
can call install_breakpoint()->uprobe_copy_insn() at the same time,
this leads to numerous problems if UPROBE_COPY_INSN is not set.
Just for example, the second copy_insn() can corrupt the already
analyzed/fixuped uprobe->arch.insn and race with handle_swbp().
This patch simply adds uprobe->copy_mutex to serialize this code.
We could probably reuse ->consumer_rwsem, but this would mean that
consumer->handler() can not use mm->mmap_sem, not good.
Note: this is another temporary ugly hack until we move this logic
into uprobe_register().
