[PATCH 2/5] uprobes: introduce uprobe_switch_to()

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

 



Introduce uprobe_switch_to(), it is called by switch_to() paths if
the "next" task is going to execute the xol insn.

Currently we use TIF_SINGLESTEP (added to _TIF_WORK_CTXSW_NEXT) to
detect this case in __switch_to_xtra() and call uprobe_switch_to(),
may be we can add another flag.

uprobe_switch_to() verifies that this task is actually UTASK_SSTEP
and X86_EFLAGS_TF is set.

Finally uprobe_switch_to() does set_xol_ip(). Currently this is not
needed, but this means that set_xol_ip() is called every time the
UTASK_SSTEP task migrates to another CPU.

To ensure set_xol_ip() can't race with itself we add preempt_disable()
into another caller, uprobe_notify_resume().

Note! this patch assumes we can trust X86_EFLAGS_TF. I mean, afaiu
even if the single-stepping insn races with irq/exception, this flag
will be cleared if and only if this instruction was already executed.
