The bpf_seq_printf, bpf_trace_printk and bpf_snprintf helpers share one per-cpu buffer that they use to store temporary data (arguments to bprintf). They "get" that buffer with try_get_fmt_tmp_buf and "put" it by the end of their scope with bpf_bprintf_cleanup. If one of these helpers gets called within the scope of one of these helpers, for example: a first bpf program gets called, uses bpf_trace_printk which calls raw_spin_lock_irqsave which is traced by another bpf program that calls bpf_snprintf, then the second "get" fails. Essentially, these helpers are not re-entrant. They would return -EBUSY and print a warning message once. This patch triples the number of bprintf buffers to allow three levels of nesting. This is very similar to what was done for tracepoints in "9594dc3c7e7 bpf: fix nested bpf tracepoints with per-cpu data" Fixes: d9c9e4db186a ("bpf: Factorize bpf_trace_printk and bpf_seq_printf") Reported-by: syzbot+63122d0bc347f18c1884@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Florent Revest <revest@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- kernel/bpf/helpers.c | 27 ++++++++++++++------------- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/bpf/helpers.c b/kernel/bpf/helpers.c index 544773970dbc..ef658a9ea5c9 100644 --- a/kernel/bpf/helpers.c +++ b/kernel/bpf/helpers.c @@ -696,34 +696,35 @@ static int bpf_trace_copy_string(char *buf, void *unsafe_ptr, char fmt_ptype, */ #define MAX_PRINTF_BUF_LEN 512 -struct bpf_printf_buf { - char tmp_buf[MAX_PRINTF_BUF_LEN]; +/* Support executing three nested bprintf helper calls on a given CPU */ +struct bpf_bprintf_buffers { + char tmp_bufs[3][MAX_PRINTF_BUF_LEN]; }; -static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct bpf_printf_buf, bpf_printf_buf); -static DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, bpf_printf_buf_used); +static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct bpf_bprintf_buffers, bpf_bprintf_bufs); +static DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, bpf_bprintf_nest_level); static int try_get_fmt_tmp_buf(char **tmp_buf) { - struct bpf_printf_buf *bufs; - int used; + struct bpf_bprintf_buffers *bufs; + int nest_level; preempt_disable(); - used = this_cpu_inc_return(bpf_printf_buf_used); - if (WARN_ON_ONCE(used > 1)) { - this_cpu_dec(bpf_printf_buf_used); + nest_level = this_cpu_inc_return(bpf_bprintf_nest_level); + if (WARN_ON_ONCE(nest_level > ARRAY_SIZE(bufs->tmp_bufs))) { + this_cpu_dec(bpf_bprintf_nest_level); preempt_enable(); return -EBUSY; } - bufs = this_cpu_ptr(&bpf_printf_buf); - *tmp_buf = bufs->tmp_buf; + bufs = this_cpu_ptr(&bpf_bprintf_bufs); + *tmp_buf = bufs->tmp_bufs[nest_level - 1]; return 0; } void bpf_bprintf_cleanup(void) { - if (this_cpu_read(bpf_printf_buf_used)) { - this_cpu_dec(bpf_printf_buf_used); + if (this_cpu_read(bpf_bprintf_nest_level)) { + this_cpu_dec(bpf_bprintf_nest_level); preempt_enable(); } } -- 2.31.1.607.g51e8a6a459-goog
