tracing: Add inter-event blurb to HIST_TRIGGERS config option

2018-03-10T21:06:05+00:00

So that users know that inter-event tracing is supported as part of the HIST_TRIGGERS option, include text to that effect in the help text.

tracing: Prevent PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES when FORTIFY_SOURCE=y

2018-01-15T19:15:31+00:00

I regularly get 50 MB - 60 MB files during kernel randconfig builds. These large files mostly contain (many repeats of; e.g., 124,594): In file included from ../include/linux/string.h:6:0, from ../include/linux/uuid.h:20, from ../include/linux/mod_devicetable.h:13, from ../scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.c:3: ../include/linux/compiler.h:64:4: warning: '______f' is static but declared in inline function 'strcpy' which is not static [enabled by default] ______f = { \ ^ ../include/linux/compiler.h:56:23: note: in expansion of macro '__trace_if' ^ ../include/linux/string.h:425:2: note: in expansion of macro 'if' if (p_size == (size_t)-1 && q_size == (size_t)-1) ^ This only happens when CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y and CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES=y, so prevent PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES if FORTIFY_SOURCE=y.

error-injection: Separate error-injection from kprobe

2018-01-13T01:33:38+00:00

Since error-injection framework is not limited to be used by kprobes, nor bpf. Other kernel subsystems can use it freely for checking safeness of error-injection, e.g. livepatch, ftrace etc. So this separate error-injection framework from kprobes. Some differences has been made: - "kprobe" word is removed from any APIs/structures. - BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() is renamed to ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() since it is not limited for BPF too. - CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is the config item of this feature. It is automatically enabled if the arch supports error injection feature for kprobe or ftrace etc. Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov

tracing/kprobe: bpf: Check error injectable event is on function entry

2018-01-13T01:33:37+00:00

Check whether error injectable event is on function entry or not. Currently it checks the event is ftrace-based kprobes or not, but that is wrong. It should check if the event is on the entry of target function. Since error injection will override a function to just return with modified return value, that operation must be done before the target function starts making stackframe. As a side effect, bpf error injection is no need to depend on function-tracer. It can work with sw-breakpoint based kprobe events too.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2017-12-18 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) Allow arbitrary function calls from one BPF function to another BPF function. As of today when writing BPF programs, __always_inline had to be used in the BPF C programs for all functions, unnecessarily causing LLVM to inflate code size. Handle this more naturally with support for BPF to BPF calls such that this __always_inline restriction can be overcome. As a result, it allows for better optimized code and finally enables to introduce core BPF libraries in the future that can be reused out of different projects. x86 and arm64 JIT support was added as well, from Alexei. 2) Add infrastructure for tagging functions as error injectable and allow for BPF to return arbitrary error values when BPF is attached via kprobes on those. This way of injecting errors generically eases testing and debugging without having to recompile or restart the kernel. Tags for opting-in for this facility are added with BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION(), from Josef. 3) For BPF offload via nfp JIT, add support for bpf_xdp_adjust_head() helper call for XDP programs. First part of this work adds handling of BPF capabilities included in the firmware, and the later patches add support to the nfp verifier part and JIT as well as some small optimizations, from Jakub. 4) The bpftool now also gets support for basic cgroup BPF operations such as attaching, detaching and listing current BPF programs. As a requirement for the attach part, bpftool can now also load object files through 'bpftool prog load'. This reuses libbpf which we have in the kernel tree as well. bpftool-cgroup man page is added along with it, from Roman. 5) Back then commit e87c6bc3852b ("bpf: permit multiple bpf attachments for a single perf event") added support for attaching multiple BPF programs to a single perf event. Given they are configured through perf's ioctl() interface, the interface has been extended with a PERF_EVENT_IOC_QUERY_BPF command in this work in order to return an array of one or multiple BPF prog ids that are currently attached, from Yonghong. 6) Various minor fixes and cleanups to the bpftool's Makefile as well as a new 'uninstall' and 'doc-uninstall' target for removing bpftool itself or prior installed documentation related to it, from Quentin. 7) Add CONFIG_CGROUP_BPF=y to the BPF kernel selftest config file which is required for the test_dev_cgroup test case to run, from Naresh. 8) Fix reporting of XDP prog_flags for nfp driver, from Jakub. 9) Fix libbpf's exit code from the Makefile when libelf was not found in the system, also from Jakub. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

bpf: add a bpf_override_function helper

2017-12-12T17:02:34+00:00

Error injection is sloppy and very ad-hoc. BPF could fill this niche perfectly with it's kprobe functionality. We could make sure errors are only triggered in specific call chains that we care about with very specific situations. Accomplish this with the bpf_override_funciton helper. This will modify the probe'd callers return value to the specified value and set the PC to an override function that simply returns, bypassing the originally probed function. This gives us a nice clean way to implement systematic error injection for all of our code paths.
