Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/uprobes: Implement arch_uretprobe_is_alive()
Date: Wed, 14 Jun 2017 21:14:00 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170614154400.17377-1-naveen.n.rao@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
This helper is used to detect if a uprobe'd function has returned
through a setjmp/longjmp, rather than branching to the LR that was
updated previously by us. This fixes a SIGSEGV that gets generated when
programs use setjmp/longjmp with uretprobes.
We use the arm64 model (arch/arm64/kernel/probes/uprobes.c:
arch_uretprobe_is_alive()) for detecting when stack frames have been
removed from under us.
Reference:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=143748610330073
commit 7b868e4802a86 ("uprobes/x86: Reimplement arch_uretprobe_is_alive()")
commit db087ef69a2b1 ("uprobes/x86: Make arch_uretprobe_is_alive(RP_CHECK_CALL) more
clever")
Tested with the test program from:
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=systemtap.git;a=blob;f=testsuite/systemtap.base/bz5274.c;hb=HEAD
And this script:
$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_main_return=main%return
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_funca_return=funca%return
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_funcb_return=funcb%return
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_funcc_return=funcc%return
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_funcd_return=funcd%return
perf record -e 'probe_bz5274:*' -aR ./bz5274
