arm64: Add uprobe support

2016-11-07T18:15:21Z

This patch adds support for uprobe on ARM64 architecture. Unit tests for following have been done so far and they have been found working 1. Step-able instructions, like sub, ldr, add etc. 2. Simulation-able like ret, cbnz, cbz etc. 3. uretprobe 4. Reject-able instructions like sev, wfe etc. 5. trapped and abort xol path 6. probe at unaligned user address. 7. longjump test cases Currently it does not support aarch32 instruction probing.

arm64: kgdb: handle read-only text / modules

2016-09-23T10:25:01Z

Handle read-only cases when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA (4.0) or CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX (3.18) are enabled by using aarch64_insn_write() instead of probe_kernel_write() as introduced by commit 2f896d586610 ("arm64: use fixmap for text patching") in 4.0.

arm64: Kprobes with single stepping support

2016-07-19T14:03:20Z

Add support for basic kernel probes(kprobes) and jump probes (jprobes) for ARM64. Kprobes utilizes software breakpoint and single step debug exceptions supported on ARM v8. A software breakpoint is placed at the probe address to trap the kernel execution into the kprobe handler. ARM v8 supports enabling single stepping before the break exception return (ERET), with next PC in exception return address (ELR_EL1). The kprobe handler prepares an executable memory slot for out-of-line execution with a copy of the original instruction being probed, and enables single stepping. The PC is set to the out-of-line slot address before the ERET. With this scheme, the instruction is executed with the exact same register context except for the PC (and DAIF) registers. Debug mask (PSTATE.D) is enabled only when single stepping a recursive kprobe, e.g.: during kprobes reenter so that probed instruction can be single stepped within the kprobe handler -exception- context. The recursion depth of kprobe is always 2, i.e. upon probe re-entry, any further re-entry is prevented by not calling handlers and the case counted as a missed kprobe). Single stepping from the x-o-l slot has a drawback for PC-relative accesses like branching and symbolic literals access as the offset from the new PC (slot address) may not be ensured to fit in the immediate value of the opcode. Such instructions need simulation, so reject probing them. Instructions generating exceptions or cpu mode change are rejected for probing. Exclusive load/store instructions are rejected too. Additionally, the code is checked to see if it is inside an exclusive load/store sequence (code from Pratyush). System instructions are mostly enabled for stepping, except MSR/MRS accesses to "DAIF" flags in PSTATE, which are not safe for probing. This also changes arch/arm64/include/asm/ptrace.h to use include/asm-generic/ptrace.h. Thanks to Steve Capper and Pratyush Anand for several suggested Changes.

arm64: move brk immediate argument definitions to separate header

2016-02-23T17:43:25Z

Instead of reversing the header dependency between asm/bug.h and asm/debug-monitors.h, split off the brk instruction immediate value defines into a new header asm/brk-imm.h, and include it from both. This solves the circular dependency issue that prevents BUG() from being used in some header files, and keeps the definitions together.

arm64: prevent potential circular header dependencies in asm/bug.h

2016-02-18T18:16:11Z

Currently, using BUG_ON() in header files is cumbersome, due to the fact that asm/bug.h transitively includes a lot of other header files, resulting in the actual BUG_ON() invocation appearing before its definition in the preprocessor input. So let's reverse the #include dependency between asm/bug.h and asm/debug-monitors.h, by moving the definition of BUG_BRK_IMM from the latter to the former. Also fix up one user of asm/debug-monitors.h which relied on a transitive include. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas

arm64: debug: rename enum debug_el to avoid symbol collision

2015-07-27T17:36:54Z

lib/list_sort.c defines a 'struct debug_el', where "el" is assumedly a a contraction of "element". This conflicts with 'enum debug_el' in our asm/debug-monitors.h header file, where "el" stands for Exception Level. The result is build failure when targetting allmodconfig, so rename our enum to 'dbg_active_el' to be slightly more explicit about what it is. Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

arm64/BUG: Use BRK instruction for generic BUG traps

2015-07-27T10:08:42Z

Currently, the minimal default BUG() implementation from asm- generic is used for arm64. This patch uses the BRK software breakpoint instruction to generate a trap instead, similarly to most other arches, with the generic BUG code generating the dmesg boilerplate. This allows bug metadata to be moved to a separate table and reduces the amount of inline code at BUG and WARN sites. This also avoids clobbering any registers before they can be dumped. To mitigate the size of the bug table further, this patch makes use of the existing infrastructure for encoding addresses within the bug table as 32-bit offsets instead of absolute pointers. (Note that this limits the kernel size to 2GB.) Traps are registered at arch_initcall time for aarch64, but BUG has minimal real dependencies and it is desirable to be able to generate bug splats as early as possible. This patch redirects all debug exceptions caused by BRK directly to bug_handler() until the full debug exception support has been initialised.

arm64/debug: Add missing #includes

2015-07-27T10:08:42Z

relies on , but doesn't declare this dependency. This becomes a problem once debug-monitors.h starts getting included all over the place to get the BRK immedates. The missing include of (for UL()) in is also added. The series no longer relies on this, but I spotted it during development and it may as well get fixed. No functional change.

arm64/debug: Simplify BRK insn opcode declarations

2015-07-27T10:08:42Z

The way the KGDB_DYN_BRK_INS_BYTEx macros are declared is more complex than it needs to be. Also, the macros are only used in one place, which is arch-specific anyway. This patch refactors the macros to simplify them, and exposes an argument so that we can have a single macro instead of 4. As a side effect, this patch also fixes some anomalous spellings of "KGDB". These changes alter the compile types of some integer constants that are harmless but trigger truncation warnings in gcc when assigning to 32-bit variables. This patch adds an explicit cast for the affected cases. Signed-off-by: Dave Martin Signed-off-by: Will Deacon
