[PATCH] hw_breakpoint: fix single-stepping when using bpf_overflow_handler
From: Tomislav Novak
Date: Fri Sep 23 2022 - 16:46:05 EST
On ARM platforms is_default_overflow_handler() is used to determine if
hw_breakpoint code should single-step over the watchpoint trigger or
let the custom handler deal with it.
Attaching a BPF program to a watchpoint replaces the handler with
bpf_overflow_handler, which isn't recognized as a default handler so we
never step over the instruction triggering the data abort exception (the
watchpoint keeps firing):
# bpftrace -e 'watchpoint:0x10000000:4:w { printf("hit\n"); }' ./wp_test
Attaching 1 probe...
hit
hit
hit
[...]
(wp_test performs a single 4-byte store to address 0x10000000)
This patch replaces the check with uses_default_overflow_handler(), which
accounts for the bpf_overflow_handler() case by also testing if the handler
invokes one of the perf_event_output functions via orig_default_handler.
