[PATCH v3] arm64: implement KPROBES_ON_FTRACE

Jisheng Zhang
2019-08-21T10:47:55Z

KPROBES_ON_FTRACE avoids much of the overhead with regular kprobes as it
eliminates the need for a trap, as well as the need to emulate or
single-step instructions.

Tested on berlin arm64 platform.

~ # mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug/
~ # cd /sys/kernel/debug/
/sys/kernel/debug # echo 'p _do_fork' > tracing/kprobe_events

before the patch:

/sys/kernel/debug # cat kprobes/list
ffffff801009fe28 k _do_fork+0x0 [DISABLED]

after the patch:

/sys/kernel/debug # cat kprobes/list
ffffff801009ff54 k _do_fork+0x4 [DISABLED][FTRACE]

KPROBES_ON_FTRACE avoids much of the overhead with regular kprobes as it
eliminates the need for a trap, as well as the need to emulate or
single-step instructions.

Applied after arm64 FTRACE_WITH_REGS:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2019-August/674404.html

Changes since v2:
- remove patch1, make it a single cleanup patch
- remove "This patch" in the change log
- implement arm64's kprobe_lookup_name() and arch_kprobe_on_func_entry instead
patching the common kprobes code

Changes since v1:
- make the kprobes/x86: use instruction_pointer and instruction_pointer_set
as patch1
- add Masami's ACK to patch1
- add some description about KPROBES_ON_FTRACE and why we need it on
arm64
- correct the log before the patch
- remove the consolidation patch, make it as TODO
- only adjust kprobe's addr when KPROBE_FLAG_FTRACE is set
- if KPROBES_ON_FTRACE, ftrace_call_adjust() the kprobe's addr before
calling ftrace_location()
- update the kprobes-on-ftrace/arch-support.txt in doc
