tracing: Fix bad use of igrab in trace_uprobe.c

2018-04-26T18:49:55+00:00

As Miklos reported and suggested:

  This pattern repeats two times in trace_uprobe.c and in
  kernel/events/core.c as well:

      ret = kern_path(filename, LOOKUP_FOLLOW, &path);
      if (ret)
          goto fail_address_parse;

      inode = igrab(d_inode(path.dentry));
      path_put(&path);

  And it's wrong.  You can only hold a reference to the inode if you
  have an active ref to the superblock as well (which is normally
  through path.mnt) or holding s_umount.

  This way unmounting the containing filesystem while the tracepoint is
  active will give you the "VFS: Busy inodes after unmount..." message
  and a crash when the inode is finally put.

  Solution: store path instead of inode.

This patch fixes two instances in trace_uprobe.c. struct path is added to
struct trace_uprobe to keep the inode and containing mount point
referenced.

Pull more perf updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A rather large set of perf updates:

  Kernel:

   - Fix various initialization issues

   - Prevent creating [ku]probes for not CAP_SYS_ADMIN users

  Tooling:

   - Show only failing syscalls with 'perf trace --failure' (Arnaldo
     Carvalho de Melo)

            e.g: See what 'openat' syscalls are failing:

        # perf trace --failure -e openat
         762.323 ( 0.007 ms): VideoCapture/4566 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /dev/video2) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
         
         790.228 ( 0.008 ms): VideoCapture/4566 openat(dfd: CWD, filename: /dev/video63) = -1 ENOENT No such file or directory
        ^C#

   - Show information about the event (freq, nr_samples, total
     period/nr_events) in the annotate --tui and --stdio2 'perf
     annotate' output, similar to the first line in the 'perf report
     --tui', but just for the samples for a the annotated symbol
     (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Introduce 'perf version --build-options' to show what features were
     linked, aliased as well as a shorter 'perf -vv' (Jin Yao)

   - Add a "dso_size" sort order (Kim Phillips)

   - Remove redundant ')' in the tracepoint output in 'perf trace'
     (Changbin Du)

   - Synchronize x86's cpufeatures.h, no effect on toolss (Arnaldo
     Carvalho de Melo)

   - Show group details on the title line in the annotate browser and
     'perf annotate --stdio2' output, so that the per-event columns can
     have headers (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Fixup vertical line separating metrics from instructions and
     cleaning unused lines at the bottom, both in the annotate TUI
     browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Remove duplicated 'samples' in lost samples warning in
     'perf report' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Synchronize i915_drm.h, silencing the perf build process,
     automagically adding support for the new DRM_I915_QUERY ioctl
     (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Make auxtrace_queues__add_buffer() allocate struct buffer, from a
     patchkit already applied (Adrian Hunter)

   - Fix the --stdio2/TUI annotate output to include group details, be
     it for a recorded '{a,b,f}' explicit event group or when forcing
     group display using 'perf report --group' for a set of events not
     recorded as a group (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Fix display artifacts in the ui browser (base class for the
     annotate and main report/top TUI browser) related to the extra
     title lines work (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - perf auxtrace refactorings, leftovers from a previously partially
     processed patchset (Adrian Hunter)

   - Fix the builtin clang build (Sandipan Das, Arnaldo Carvalho de
     Melo)

   - Synchronize i915_drm.h, silencing a perf build warning and in the
     process automagically adding support for a new ioctl command
     (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)

   - Fix a strncpy issue in uprobe tracing"

trace_uprobe: Use %lx to display offset

2018-04-11T15:31:07+00:00

tu->offset is unsigned long, not a pointer, thus %lx should
be used to print it, not the %px.

tracing/uprobe: Add support for overlayfs

2018-04-11T15:31:06+00:00

uprobes cannot successfully attach to binaries located in a directory
mounted with overlayfs.

To verify, create directories for mounting overlayfs
(upper,lower,work,merge), move some binary into merge/ and use readelf
to obtain some known instruction of the binary. I used /bin/true and the
entry instruction(0x13b0):

	$ mount -t overlay overlay -o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merge
	$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
	$ echo 'p:true_entry PATH_TO_MERGE/merge/true:0x13b0' > uprobe_events
	$ echo 1 > events/uprobes/true_entry/enable

This returns 'bash: echo: write error: Input/output error' and dmesg
tells us 'event trace: Could not enable event true_entry'

This change makes create_trace_uprobe() look for the real inode of a
dentry. In the case of normal filesystems, this simplifies to just
returning the inode. In the case of overlayfs(and similar fs) we will
obtain the underlying dentry and corresponding inode, upon which uprobes
can successfully register.

Running the example above with the patch applied, we can see that the
uprobe is enabled and will output to trace as expected.

perf/core: Implement the 'perf_uprobe' PMU

2018-02-06T10:29:28+00:00

This patch adds perf_uprobe support with similar pattern as previous
patch (for kprobe).

Two functions, create_local_trace_uprobe() and
destroy_local_trace_uprobe(), are created so a uprobe can be created
and attached to the file descriptor created by perf_event_open().

trace_uprobe: Display correct offset in uprobe_events

2018-01-23T20:57:29+00:00

Recently, how the pointers being printed with %p has been changed
by commit ad67b74d2469 ("printk: hash addresses printed with %p").
This is causing a regression while showing offset in the
uprobe_events file. Instead of %p, use %px to display offset.

Before patch:

  # perf probe -vv -x /tmp/a.out main
  Opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing//uprobe_events write=1
  Writing event: p:probe_a/main /tmp/a.out:0x58c

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
  p:probe_a/main /tmp/a.out:0x0000000049a0f352

After patch:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
  p:probe_a/main /tmp/a.out:0x000000000000058c
