1. Don't include asm/uprobes.h unconditionally, we only need it if CONFIG_UPROBES. 2. Move the definition of "struct xol_area" into uprobes.c. Perhaps we should simply kill struct uprobes_state, it buys nothing. 3. Kill the dummy definition of uprobe_get_swbp_addr(), nobody except handle_swbp() needs it. 4. Purely cosmetic, but move the decl of uprobe_get_swbp_addr() up, close to other __weak helpers. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

powerpc has both arch_uprobe->insn and arch_uprobe->ainsn to make the generic code happy. This is no longer needed after the previous change, powerpc can just use "u32 insn".

arch_uprobe should be opaque as much as possible to the generic code, but currently it assumes that insn/ixol must be u8[] of the known size. Remove this unnecessary dependency, we can use "&" and and sizeof() with the same effect. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Oleg Nesterov authored
uprobe_task->vaddr is a bit strange. The generic code uses it only to pass the additional argument to arch_uprobe_pre_xol(), and since it is always equal to instruction_pointer() this looks even more strange. And both utask->vaddr and and utask->autask have the same scope, they only have the meaning when the task executes the probed insn out-of-line, so it is safe to reuse both in UTASK_RUNNING state. This all means that logically ->vaddr belongs to arch_uprobe_task and we should probably move it there, arch_uprobe_pre_xol() can record instruction_pointer() itself. OTOH, it is also used by uprobe_copy_process() and dup_xol_work() for another purpose, this doesn't look clean and doesn't allow to move this member into arch_uprobe_task. This patch adds the union with 2 anonymous structs into uprobe_task. The first struct is autask + vaddr, this way we "almost" move vaddr into autask. The second struct has 2 new members for uprobe_copy_process() paths: ->dup_xol_addr which can be used instead ->vaddr, and ->dup_xol_work which can be used to avoid kmalloc() and simplify the code. Note that this union will likely have another member(s), we need something like "private_data_for_handlers" so that the tracing handlers could use it to communicate with call_fetch() methods.

1. copy_insn() doesn't look very nice, all calculations are confusing and it is not immediately clear why do we read the 2nd page first. 2. The usage of inode->i_size is wrong on 32-bit machines. 3. "Instruction at end of binary" logic is simply wrong, it doesn't handle the case when uprobe->offset > inode->i_size. In this case "bytes" overflows, and __copy_insn() writes to the memory outside of uprobe->arch.insn. Yes, uprobe_register() checks i_size_read(), but this file can be truncated after that. All i_size checks are racy, we do this only to catch the obvious mistakes. Change copy_insn() to call __copy_insn() in a loop, simplify and fix the bytes/nbytes calculations. Note: we do not care if we read extra bytes after inode->i_size if we got the valid page. This is fine because the task gets the same page after page-fault, and arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can't know how many bytes were actually read anyway. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

Commit aa59c53f "uprobes: Change uprobe_copy_process() to dup xol_area" has a stupid typo, we need to setup t->utask->vaddr but the code wrongly uses current->utask. Even with this bug dup_xol_work() works "in practice", but only because get_unmapped_area(NULL, TASK_SIZE - PAGE_SIZE) likely returns the same address every time.

There is no point in sort.h including itself. The include was added when the file was created, in commit "perf tools: Create util/sort.and use it" (dd68ada2) and added a include to "sort.h" in lot of files (all the files that started using the file).

Instead do the lookups just when creating the tracepoints, initially for the most common, raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit}. It works by having evsel->priv have a per tracepoint structure with entries for the fields, for direct access, with the offset and a function to get the value from the sample, doing the swap if needed.

set_swbp() and set_orig_insn() are __weak, but this is pointless because write_opcode() is static. Export write_opcode() as uprobe_write_opcode() for the upcoming arm port, this way it can actually override set_swbp() and use __opcode_to_mem_arm(bpinsn) instead if UPROBE_SWBP_INSN.

Currently xol_get_insn_slot() assumes that we should simply copy arch_uprobe->insn[] which is (ignoring arch_uprobe_analyze_insn) just the copy of the original insn. This is not true for arm which needs to create another insn to execute it out-of-line. So this patch simply adds the new member, ->ixol into the union. This doesn't make any difference for x86 and powerpc, but arm can divorce insn/ixol and initialize the correct xol insn in arch_uprobe_analyze_insn(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

The arch_perf_output_copy_user() default of __copy_from_user_inatomic() returns bytes not copied, while all other argument functions given DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() return bytes copied. Since copy_from_user_nmi() is the odd duck out by returning bytes copied where all other *copy_{to,from}* functions return bytes not copied, change it over and ammend DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() to expect bytes not copied. Oddly enough DEFINE_OUTPUT_COPY() already returned bytes not copied while expecting its worker functions to return bytes copied.

Add unlikely() annotations to 'slow' paths: When having a sampling event but no output buffer; you have bigger issues -- also the bail is still faster than actually doing the work. When having a sampling event but a control page only buffer, you have bigger issues -- again the bail is still faster than actually doing work. Optimize for the case where you're not loosing events -- again, not doing the work is still faster but make sure that when you have to actually do work its as fast as possible.

Shorten it, "finding" it is an implementation detail, what callers want is the pathname, not to ask for it to _always_ do the lookup. And the existing implementation already caches it, i.e. it doesn't "finds" it on every call.
