Use guard() or scoped_guard() in uprobe events for critical sections
rather than discrete lock/unlock pairs.

<title>bpf: Fix theoretical prog_array UAF in __uprobe_perf_func()</title>

<id>7d0d673627e20cfa3b21a829a896ce03b58a4f1c</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the pointer stored in call-&gt;prog_array is loaded in
__uprobe_perf_func(), with no RCU annotation and no immediately visible
RCU protection, so it looks as if the loaded pointer can immediately be
dangling.
Later, bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe() starts a RCU-trace read-side critical
section, but this is too late. It then uses rcu_dereference_check(), but
this use of rcu_dereference_check() does not actually dereference anything.

Fix it by aligning the semantics to bpf_prog_run_array(): Let the caller
provide rcu_read_lock_trace() protection and then load call-&gt;prog_array
with rcu_dereference_check().

This issue seems to be theoretical: I don't know of any way to reach this
code without having handle_swbp() further up the stack, which is already
holding a rcu_read_lock_trace() lock, so where we take
rcu_read_lock_trace() in __uprobe_perf_func()/bpf_prog_run_array_uprobe()
doesn't actually have any effect.

<title>tracing/probes: Fix MAX_TRACE_ARGS limit handling</title>

<id>73f35080477e893aa6f4c8d388352b871b288fbc</id>
<content type='text'>
When creating a trace_probe we would set nr_args prior to truncating the
arguments to MAX_TRACE_ARGS. However, we would only initialize arguments
up to the limit.

This caused invalid memory access when attempting to set up probes with
more than 128 fetchargs.

Resolve the issue by applying the MAX_TRACE_ARGS limit earlier. Return
an error when there are too many arguments instead of silently
truncating.

<title>uprobe: avoid out-of-bounds memory access of fetching args</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=373b9338c9722a368925d83bc622c596896b328e'/>
<id>373b9338c9722a368925d83bc622c596896b328e</id>
<content type='text'>
Uprobe needs to fetch args into a percpu buffer, and then copy to ring
buffer to avoid non-atomic context problem.

Sometimes user-space strings, arrays can be very large, but the size of
percpu buffer is only page size. And store_trace_args() won't check
whether these data exceeds a single page or not, caused out-of-bounds
memory access.

It could be reproduced by following steps:
1. build kernel with CONFIG_KASAN enabled
2. save follow program as test.c

```
\#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
\#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
\#include &lt;string.h&gt;

// If string length large than MAX_STRING_SIZE, the fetch_store_strlen()
// will return 0, cause __get_data_size() return shorter size, and
// store_trace_args() will not trigger out-of-bounds access.
// So make string length less than 4096.
\#define STRLEN 4093

void generate_string(char *str, int n)
{
    int i;
    for (i = 0; i &lt; n; ++i)
    {
        char c = i % 26 + 'a';
        str[i] = c;
    }
    str[n-1] = '\0';
}

void print_string(char *str)
{
    printf("%s\n", str);
}

int main()
{
    char tmp[STRLEN];

    generate_string(tmp, STRLEN);
    print_string(tmp);

    return 0;
}
```
3. compile program
`gcc -o test test.c`

4. get the offset of `print_string()`
```
objdump -t test | grep -w print_string
0000000000401199 g     F .text  000000000000001b              print_string
```

5. configure uprobe with offset 0x1199
```
off=0x1199

cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo "p /root/test:${off} arg1=+0(%di):ustring arg2=\$comm arg3=+0(%di):ustring"
 &gt; uprobe_events
echo 1 &gt; events/uprobes/enable
echo 1 &gt; tracing_on
```

6. run `test`, and kasan will report error.

Uprobe needs to fetch args into a percpu buffer, and then copy to ring
buffer to avoid non-atomic context problem.

Sometimes user-space strings, arrays can be very large, but the size of
percpu buffer is only page size. And store_trace_args() won't check
whether these data exceeds a single page or not, caused out-of-bounds
memory access.

It could be reproduced by following steps:
1. build kernel with CONFIG_KASAN enabled
2. save follow program as test.c

```
\#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
\#include &lt;stdlib.h&gt;
\#include &lt;string.h&gt;

// If string length large than MAX_STRING_SIZE, the fetch_store_strlen()
// will return 0, cause __get_data_size() return shorter size, and
// store_trace_args() will not trigger out-of-bounds access.
// So make string length less than 4096.
\#define STRLEN 4093

void generate_string(char *str, int n)
{
    int i;
    for (i = 0; i &lt; n; ++i)
    {
        char c = i % 26 + 'a';
        str[i] = c;
    }
    str[n-1] = '\0';
}

void print_string(char *str)
{
    printf("%s\n", str);
}

int main()
{
    char tmp[STRLEN];

    generate_string(tmp, STRLEN);
    print_string(tmp);

    return 0;
}
```
3. compile program
`gcc -o test test.c`

4. get the offset of `print_string()`
```
objdump -t test | grep -w print_string
0000000000401199 g     F .text  000000000000001b              print_string
```

5. configure uprobe with offset 0x1199
```
off=0x1199

cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo "p /root/test:${off} arg1=+0(%di):ustring arg2=\$comm arg3=+0(%di):ustring"
 &gt; uprobe_events
echo 1 &gt; events/uprobes/enable
echo 1 &gt; tracing_on
```

6. run `test`, and kasan will report error.

trace_uprobe-&gt;nhit counter is not incremented atomically, so its value
is questionable in when uprobe is hit on multiple CPUs simultaneously.

Also, doing this shared counter increment across many CPUs causes heavy
cache line bouncing, limiting uprobe/uretprobe performance scaling with
number of CPUs.

Solve both problems by making this a per-CPU counter.

With uprobe_unregister() having grown a synchronize_srcu(), it becomes
fairly slow to call. Esp. since both users of this API call it in a
loop.

Peel off the sync_srcu() and do it once, after the loop.

We also need to add uprobe_unregister_sync() into uprobe_register()'s
error handling path, as we need to be careful about returning to the
caller before we have a guarantee that partially attached consumer won't
be called anymore. This is an unlikely slow path and this should be
totally fine to be slow in the case of a failed attach.

It serves no purpose beyond adding unnecessray argument passed to the
filter callback. Just get rid of it, no one is actually using it.
