From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx> Ensure running fprobe_exit_handler() has finished before calling rethook_free() in the unregister_fprobe() so that caller can free the fprobe right after unregister_fprobe(). unregister_fprobe() ensured that all running fprobe_entry/exit_handler() have finished by calling unregister_ftrace_function() which synchronizes RCU. But commit 5f81018753df ("fprobe: Release rethook after the ftrace_ops is unregistered") changed to call rethook_free() after unregister_ftrace_function(). So call rethook_stop() to make rethook disabled before unregister_ftrace_function() and ensure it again. Here is the possible code flow that can call the exit handler after unregister_fprobe(). ------ CPU1 CPU2 call unregister_fprobe(fp) ... __fprobe_handler() rethook_hook() on probed function unregister_ftrace_function() return from probed function rethook hooks find rh->handler == fprobe_exit_handler call fprobe_exit_handler() rethook_free(): set rh->handler = NULL; return from unreigster_fprobe; call fp->exit_handler() <- (*) ------ (*) At this point, the exit handler is called after returning from unregister_fprobe(). This fixes it as following; ------ CPU1 CPU2 call unregister_fprobe() ... rethook_stop(): set rh->handler = NULL; __fprobe_handler() rethook_hook() on probed function unregister_ftrace_function() return from probed function rethook hooks find rh->handler == NULL return from rethook rethook_free() return from unreigster_fprobe; ------ Fixes: 5f81018753df ("fprobe: Release rethook after the ftrace_ops is unregistered") Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v2: - Update changelog to add a problematic code flow. --- include/linux/rethook.h | 1 + kernel/trace/fprobe.c | 3 +++ kernel/trace/rethook.c | 13 +++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 17 insertions(+) diff --git a/include/linux/rethook.h b/include/linux/rethook.h index c8ac1e5afcd1..bdbe6717f45a 100644 --- a/include/linux/rethook.h +++ b/include/linux/rethook.h @@ -59,6 +59,7 @@ struct rethook_node { }; struct rethook *rethook_alloc(void *data, rethook_handler_t handler); +void rethook_stop(struct rethook *rh); void rethook_free(struct rethook *rh); void rethook_add_node(struct rethook *rh, struct rethook_node *node); struct rethook_node *rethook_try_get(struct rethook *rh); diff --git a/kernel/trace/fprobe.c b/kernel/trace/fprobe.c index 0121e8c0d54e..75517667b54f 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/fprobe.c +++ b/kernel/trace/fprobe.c @@ -364,6 +364,9 @@ int unregister_fprobe(struct fprobe *fp) fp->ops.saved_func != fprobe_kprobe_handler)) return -EINVAL; + if (fp->rethook) + rethook_stop(fp->rethook); + ret = unregister_ftrace_function(&fp->ops); if (ret < 0) return ret; diff --git a/kernel/trace/rethook.c b/kernel/trace/rethook.c index 60f6cb2b486b..468006cce7ca 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/rethook.c +++ b/kernel/trace/rethook.c @@ -53,6 +53,19 @@ static void rethook_free_rcu(struct rcu_head *head) kfree(rh); } +/** + * rethook_stop() - Stop using a rethook. + * @rh: the struct rethook to stop. + * + * Stop using a rethook to prepare for freeing it.
