[PATCH RFC 3/3] kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite
From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Tue Jun 04 2024 - 08:27:02 EST
uprobe_write_opcode() does some pretty low-level things that really, it
shouldn't be doing: for example, manually breaking COW by allocating
anonymous folios and replacing mapped pages.
Further, it does seem to do some shaky things: for example, writing to
possible COW-shared anonymous pages or zapping anonymous pages that might
be pinned. We're also not taking care of uffd, uffd-wp, softdirty ...
although rather corner cases here. Let's just get it right like ordinary
ptrace writes would.
Let's rewrite the code, leaving COW-breaking to core-MM, triggered by
FOLL_FORCE|FOLL_WRITE (note that the code was already using FOLL_FORCE).
We'll use GUP to lookup/faultin the page and break COW if required. Then,
we'll walk the page tables using walk_page_range_vma(), to perform our page
modification atomically by temporarily unmap+flushing the PTE that maps an
anonymous page.
Unfortunately, we still have to implement the zapping logic manually,
because we only want to zap in specific circumstances (e.g., page
content identical).
Note that we can handle large folios just fine. walk_page_range_vma() will
call split_huge_pmd() for us. We can drop the WARN and stop using
FOLL_SPLIT_PMD. If split_huge_pmd() decides to zap a PMD-mapped file THP,
there is nothing to do when unregistering. Document that.
