[RFC] bpf: Fix crash on mm_init trampoline attachment

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There are 2 mm_init functions in kernel.

One in kernel/fork.c:
  static struct mm_struct *mm_init(struct mm_struct *mm,
                                   struct task_struct *p,
                                   struct user_namespace *user_ns)

And another one in init/main.c:
  static void __init mm_init(void)

The BTF data will get the first one, which is most likely
(in my case) mm_init from init/main.c without arguments.

Then in runtime when we want to attach to 'mm_init' the
kalsyms contains address of the one from kernel/fork.c.

So we have function model with no arguments and using it
to attach function with 3 arguments.. as result the trampoline
will not save function's arguments and we get crash because
trampoline changes argument registers:

I think there might be more cases like this, but I don't have
an idea yet how to solve this in generic way. The rename in
this change fix it for this instance.
