Acquiring event_mutex in perf_kprobe_init() before calling perf_trace_event_init() should fix this race.

* | perf_event: Add support for LSM and SELinux checksJoel Fernandes (Google)2019-10-171-5/+10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In current mainline, the degree of access to perf_event_open(2) system call depends on the perf_event_paranoid sysctl. This has a number of limitations: 1. The sysctl is only a single value. Many types of accesses are controlled based on the single value thus making the control very limited and coarse grained. 2. The sysctl is global, so if the sysctl is changed, then that means all processes get access to perf_event_open(2) opening the door to security issues. This patch adds LSM and SELinux access checking which will be used in Android to access perf_event_open(2) for the purposes of attaching BPF programs to tracepoints, perf profiling and other operations from userspace. These operations are intended for production systems. 5 new LSM hooks are added: 1. perf_event_open: This controls access during the perf_event_open(2) syscall itself. The hook is called from all the places that the perf_event_paranoid sysctl is checked to keep it consistent with the systctl. The hook gets passed a 'type' argument which controls CPU, kernel and tracepoint accesses (in this context, CPU, kernel and tracepoint have the same semantics as the perf_event_paranoid sysctl). Additionally, I added an 'open' type which is similar to perf_event_paranoid sysctl == 3 patch carried in Android and several other distros but was rejected in mainline [1] in 2016. 2. perf_event_alloc: This allocates a new security object for the event which stores the current SID within the event. It will be useful when the perf event's FD is passed through IPC to another process which may try to read the FD. Appropriate security checks will limit access. 3. perf_event_free: Called when the event is closed. 4. perf_event_read: Called from the read(2) and mmap(2) syscalls for the event. 5. perf_event_write: Called from the ioctl(2) syscalls for the event. [1] https://lwn.net/Articles/696240/ Since Peter had suggest LSM hooks in 2016 [1], I am adding his Suggested-by tag below. To use this patch, we set the perf_event_paranoid sysctl to -1 and then apply selinux checking as appropriate (default deny everything, and then add policy rules to give access to domains that need it). In the future we can remove the perf_event_paranoid sysctl altogether.

* tracing/perf: Use strndup_user() instead of buggy open-coded versionJann Horn2019-02-211-9/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The first version of this method was missing the check for `ret == PATH_MAX`; then such a check was added, but it didn't call kfree() on error, so there was still a small memory leak in the error case.

* perf/ftrace: Fix function trace eventsPeter Zijlstra2017-10-161-31/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function-trace <-> perf interface is a tad messed up. Where all the other trace <-> perf interfaces use a single trace hook registration and use per-cpu RCU based hlist to iterate the events, function-trace actually needs multiple hook registrations in order to minimize function entry patching when filters are present. The end result is that we iterate events both on the trace hook and on the hlist, which results in reporting events multiple times. Since function-trace cannot use the regular scheme, fix it the other way around, use singleton hlists.

It doesn't explain why those don't have the problem and if not, why their solution doesn't work for ftrace. It doesn't, but this is just putting more duct tape on.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug which can be reproduced by: perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 & perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf script ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns We can see that all the function traces are doubled. The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu, the traces of them will be doubled. So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event, only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

| * ftrace: Remove use of control list and opsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)2015-12-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently perf has its own list function within the ftrace infrastructure that seems to be used only to allow for it to have per-cpu disabling as well as a check to make sure that it's not called while RCU is not watching. It uses something called the "control_ops" which is used to iterate over ops under it with the control_list_func(). The problem is that this control_ops and control_list_func unnecessarily complicates the code. By replacing FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL with two new flags (FTRACE_OPS_FL_RCU and FTRACE_OPS_FL_PER_CPU) we can remove all the code that is special with the control ops and add the needed checks within the generic ftrace_list_func().

* perf: Avoid horrible stack usagePeter Zijlstra (Intel)2015-01-141-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf related callbacks have massive stack bloat. The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled it with minimal bits required for operation. Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available, making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste. This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static per-cpu storage instead of on-stack. Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler. We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs() like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs element to use). One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs pointer available and do not need another.

When we sample the irq_work_exit tracepoint with period==1 (or PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD) and we add an fasync SIGNAL handler we create an infinite event generation loop: ,-> <IPI> | irq_work_exit() -> | trace_irq_work_exit() -> | ... | __perf_event_overflow() -> (due to fasync) | irq_work_queue() -> (irq_work_list must be empty) '--------- arch_irq_work_raise() Similar things can happen due to regular poll() wakeups if we exceed the ring-buffer wakeup watermark, or have an event_limit. To avoid this, dis-allow sampling this particular tracepoint. In order to achieve this, create a special perf_perm function pointer for each event and call this (when set) on trying to create a tracepoint perf event.

I need these events for profiling sleep times. sched_switch is used for getting callchains and sched_stat_* is used for getting time periods. These events are combined in user space, then it can be analyzed by perf tools.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument. The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with the generic stopped state. This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain code paths (like IRQ handlers). It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters). The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on how the architecture implemented the throttled state: 1) We disable the counter: a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state 2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: paulus <paulus@samba.org> Cc: stephane eranian <eranian@googlemail.com> Cc: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Cc: Lin Ming <ming.m.lin@intel.com> Cc: Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Deng-Cheng Zhu <dengcheng.zhu@gmail.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tracepoint call We use synchronize_sched() to ensure a tracepoint won't be called while/after we release the perf buffers it references. But the tracepoint API has its own API for that: tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(). Use it instead as it's self-explanatory and eases maintainance.

* tracing: Use class->reg() for all registering of eventsSteven Rostedt2010-06-281-16/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because kprobes and syscalls need special processing to register events, the class->reg() method was created to handle the differences. But instead of creating a default ->reg for perf and ftrace events, the code was scattered with: if (class->reg) class->reg(); else default_reg(); This is messy and can also lead to bugs. This patch cleans up this code and creates a default reg() entry for the events allowing for the code to directly call the class->reg() without the condition.
