x86/kprobes: Avoid kretprobe recursion bug
[ Upstream commit b191fa96ea6dc00d331dcc28c1f7db5e075693a0 ] Avoid kretprobe recursion loop bg by setting a dummy kprobes to current_kprobe per-CPU variable. This bug has been introduced with the asm-coded trampoline code, since previously it used another kprobe for hooking the function return placeholder (which only has a nop) and trampoline handler was called from that kprobe. This revives the old lost kprobe again. With this fix, we don't see deadlock anymore. And you can see that all inner-called kretprobe are skipped. event_1 235 0 event_2 19375 19612 The 1st column is recorded count and the 2nd is missed count. Above shows (event_1 rec) + (event_2 rec) ~= (event_2 missed) (some difference are here because the counter is racy) Reported-by: Andrea Righi <righi.andrea@gmail.com> Tested-by: Andrea Righi <righi.andrea@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: c9becf58d935 ("[PATCH] kretprobe: kretprobe-booster") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/155094064889.6137.972160690963039.stgit@devbox Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
