Subject: [PATCH] tracing/fprobe: Check the same type fprobe on table as the
 unregistered one

Commit 2c67dc457bc6 ("tracing: fprobe: optimization for entry only case")
introduced a different ftrace_ops for entry-only fprobes.

However, when unregistering an fprobe, the kernel only checks if another
fprobe exists at the same address, without checking which type of fprobe
it is.
If different fprobes are registered at the same address, the same address
will be registered in both fgraph_ops and ftrace_ops, but only one of
them will be deleted when unregistering. (the one removed first will not
be deleted from the ops).

This results in junk entries remaining in either fgraph_ops or ftrace_ops.
For example:
 =======
 cd /sys/kernel/tracing

 # 'Add entry and exit events on the same place'
 echo 'f:event1 vfs_read' >> dynamic_events
 echo 'f:event2 vfs_read%return' >> dynamic_events

 # 'Enable both of them'
 echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
 cat enabled_functions
vfs_read (2)            ->arch_ftrace_ops_list_func+0x0/0x210

 # 'Disable and remove exit event'
 echo 0 > events/fprobes/event2/enable
 echo -:event2 >> dynamic_events

 # 'Disable and remove all events'
 echo 0 > events/fprobes/enable
 echo > dynamic_events

 # 'Add another event'
 echo 'f:event3 vfs_open%return' > dynamic_events
 cat dynamic_events
f:fprobes/event3 vfs_open%return

 echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
 cat enabled_functions
vfs_open (1)            tramp: 0xffffffffa0001000 (ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60) ->ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60    subops: {ent:fprobe_fgraph_entry+0x0/0x620 ret:fprobe_return+0x0/0x150}
vfs_read (1)            tramp: 0xffffffffa0001000 (ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60) ->ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60    subops: {ent:fprobe_fgraph_entry+0x0/0x620 ret:fprobe_return+0x0/0x150}
 =======

As you can see, an entry for the vfs_read remains.

To fix this issue, when unregistering, the kernel should also check if
there is the same type of fprobes still exist at the same address, and
if not, delete its entry from either fgraph_ops or ftrace_ops.

The 'ret' local variable in fprobe_remove_node_in_module() was used
for checking the error state in the loop, but commit dfe0d675df82
("tracing: fprobe: use rhltable for fprobe_ip_table") removed the loop.
So we don't need it anymore.

From: Menglong Dong <menglong8.dong@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit cd06078a38aaedfebbf8fa0c009da0f99f4473fb ]

For now, we will use ftrace for the fprobe if fp->exit_handler not exists
and CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS is enabled.

However, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS is not supported by some arch,
such as arm. What we need in the fprobe is the function arguments, so we
can use ftrace for fprobe if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is enabled.

Therefore, use ftrace if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled.

[ Upstream commit aa72812b49104bb5a38272fc9541feb62ca6fd32 ]

fprobe_remove_node_in_module() is called under RCU read locked, but
this invokes kcalloc() if there are more than 8 fprobes installed
on the module. Sashiko warns it because kcalloc() can sleep [1].

 [1] https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/177552432201.853249.5125045538812833325.stgit%40mhiramat.tok.corp.google.com

To fix this issue, expand the batch size to 128 and do not expand
the fprobe_addr_list, but just cancel walking on fprobe_ip_table,
update fgraph/ftrace_ops and retry the loop again.

From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 0ac0058a74ac5765c7ce09ea630f4fdeaf4d80fa ]

Commit 2c67dc457bc6 ("tracing: fprobe: optimization for entry only case")
introduced a different ftrace_ops for entry-only fprobes.

However, when unregistering an fprobe, the kernel only checks if another
fprobe exists at the same address, without checking which type of fprobe
it is.
If different fprobes are registered at the same address, the same address
will be registered in both fgraph_ops and ftrace_ops, but only one of
them will be deleted when unregistering. (the one removed first will not
be deleted from the ops).

This results in junk entries remaining in either fgraph_ops or ftrace_ops.
For example:
 =======
 cd /sys/kernel/tracing

 # 'Add entry and exit events on the same place'
 echo 'f:event1 vfs_read' >> dynamic_events
 echo 'f:event2 vfs_read%return' >> dynamic_events

 # 'Enable both of them'
 echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
 cat enabled_functions
vfs_read (2)            ->arch_ftrace_ops_list_func+0x0/0x210

 # 'Disable and remove exit event'
 echo 0 > events/fprobes/event2/enable
 echo -:event2 >> dynamic_events

 # 'Disable and remove all events'
 echo 0 > events/fprobes/enable
 echo > dynamic_events

 # 'Add another event'
 echo 'f:event3 vfs_open%return' > dynamic_events
 cat dynamic_events
f:fprobes/event3 vfs_open%return

 echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
 cat enabled_functions
vfs_open (1)            tramp: 0xffffffffa0001000 (ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60) ->ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60    subops: {ent:fprobe_fgraph_entry+0x0/0x620 ret:fprobe_return+0x0/0x150}
vfs_read (1)            tramp: 0xffffffffa0001000 (ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60) ->ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60    subops: {ent:fprobe_fgraph_entry+0x0/0x620 ret:fprobe_return+0x0/0x150}
 =======

As you can see, an entry for the vfs_read remains.

To fix this issue, when unregistering, the kernel should also check if
there is the same type of fprobes still exist at the same address, and
if not, delete its entry from either fgraph_ops or ftrace_ops.
