[PATCH v3 0/4] ptrace: cleanup PTRACE_SYSEMU handling and add support for arm64

[Sudeep Holla]

Hi,

This patchset evolved from the discussion in the thread[0][1]. When we
wanted to add PTRACE_SYSEMU support to ARM64, we thought instead of
duplicating what other architectures like x86 and powerpc have done,
let consolidate the existing support and move it to the core as there's
nothing arch specific in it.

v2->v3:
	- moved clearing of TIF_SYSCALL_EMU to __ptrace_unlink as Oleg
	  suggested
	- x86 cleanup as per Oleg's suggestion and dropped adding new
	  ptrace_syscall_enter for SYSEMU handling
	  (tested using tools/testing/selftests/x86/ptrace_syscall.c)
	- Updated arm64 handling accordingly

v1->v2:
	- added comment for empty statement after tracehook_report_syscall_entry
	- dropped x86 change in syscall_slow_exit_work as I had ended
	  up changing logic unintentionally
	- removed spurious change in powerpc moving user_exit()

Regards,
Sudeep

[PATCH v3 1/4] ptrace: move clearing of TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flag to core

[Sudeep Holla]

While the TIF_SYSCALL_EMU is set in ptrace_resume independent of any
architecture, currently only powerpc and x86 unset the TIF_SYSCALL_EMU
flag in ptrace_disable which gets called from ptrace_detach.

Let's move the clearing of TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flag to __ptrace_unlink
which gets executed from ptrace_detach and also keep it along with
or close to clearing of TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE.

Since 1/4 and 2/4 are completely independent of arm64 changes in 3&4/4,
I prefer you take these via your tree.

Sorry Sudeep, I can't do this, I need to reanimate my account on kernel.org.

Ok, if you're happy for us to take them via arm64 with your ack, then we can
do that as well. Just don't want to step on anybody's toes!

[PATCH v3 2/4] x86: simplify _TIF_SYSCALL_EMU handling

The usage of emulated/_TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flags in syscall_trace_enter
seems to be bit overcomplicated than required. Let's simplify it.

[PATCH v3 3/4] arm64: add PTRACE_SYSEMU{, SINGLESTEP} definations to uapi headers

[Sudeep Holla]

x86 and um use 31 and 32 for PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP
while powerpc uses different value maybe for legacy reasons.

Though handling of PTRACE_SYSEMU can be made architecture independent,
it's hard to make these definations generic. To add to this existing
mess few architectures like arm, c6x and sh use 31 for PTRACE_GETFDPIC
(get the ELF fdpic loadmap address). It's not possible to move the
definations to generic headers.

So we unfortunately have to duplicate the same defination to ARM64 if
we need to support PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.

[PATCH v3 4/4] arm64: ptrace: add support for syscall emulation

[Sudeep Holla]

Add PTRACE_SYSEMU and PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP support on arm64.
We don't need any special handling for PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP.

It's quite difficult to generalize handling PTRACE_SYSEMU cross
architectures and avoid calls to tracehook_report_syscall_entry twice.
Different architecture have different mechanism to indicate NO_SYSCALL
and trying to generalise adds more code for no gain.

Hi Will,

While I agree with your idea of consolidation of PTRACE_SYSEMU handling
to core, it's quite a lot of change to do that, though it may be simple
and confusing with indirection from arch code to core.

Regards,
Sudeep
