[PATCH -tip v8 10/26] kprobes/x86: Allow probe on some kprobe preparation functions

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Wed Mar 05 2014 - 07:00:19 EST


There is no need to prohibit probing on the functions
used in preparation phase. Those are safely probed because
those are not invoked from breakpoint/fault/debug handlers,
there is no chance to cause recursive exceptions.

Following functions are now removed from the kprobes blacklist.
can_boost
can_probe
can_optimize
is_IF_modifier
__copy_instruction
copy_optimized_instructions
arch_copy_kprobe
arch_prepare_kprobe
arch_arm_kprobe
arch_disarm_kprobe
arch_remove_kprobe
arch_trampoline_kprobe
arch_prepare_kprobe_ftrace
arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe
arch_check_optimized_kprobe
arch_within_optimized_kprobe
__arch_remove_optimized_kprobe
arch_remove_optimized_kprobe
arch_optimize_kprobes
arch_unoptimize_kprobe

I tested the safety via kprobe-tracer as below;

# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# cat above-coverted-symbols-list | while read s; do
echo "p $s"; done > kprobe_events
(Note: some symbols are not found, those are inlined)
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable
# echo p:foo vfs_symlink >> kprobe_events
# echo p:bar vfs_symlink+5 >> kprobe_events
# echo p vfs_symlink+5 >> kprobe_events
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/foo/enable
# ln -sf /tmp/foo /tmp/bar
# echo 0 > events/kprobes/foo/enable
# echo -:foo >> kprobe_events
# head -n 20 trace
# echo 0 > events/kprobes/enable
# echo > kprobe_events
# echo > trace
