[PATCH] x86/kprobe: unbalanced preempt counter with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
From: yangbo
Date: Sun Jan 14 2018 - 23:25:17 EST
From: Yang Bo <yangbo@xxxxxxxxxx>
For each kprobe hook, preempt_disable() is called twice, but
preempt_enable() is called once, when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. No
matter kprobe uses ftrace or int3. Then the preempt counter
overflows, the process might be preempted and migrate to another
cpu. It causes the kprobe int3 being treated as not kprobe's int3,
kernel dies.
The backtrace looks like this:
int3: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
Modules linkedd in: ...
CPU: 1 PID: 2618 COMM: ...
Hardware: ...
task: ...
RIP: 0010[<ffffffff81457cd5>] [<ffffffff81457cd5>] jprobe_return_end+0x0/0xb
...
RIP [<ffffffff81457cd5>] jprobe_return_end+0x0/0xb
RSP ...
