bpf: Mark bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}() helpers with notrace correctly
[ Upstream commit 178c54666f9c4d2f49f2ea661d0c11b52f0ed190 ]
Currently tracing is supposed not to allow for bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}()
helper calls. This is to prevent deadlock for the following cases:
- there is a prog (prog-A) calling bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().
- there is a tracing program (prog-B), e.g., fentry, attached
to bpf_spin_lock() and/or bpf_spin_unlock().
- prog-B calls bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().
For such a case, when prog-A calls bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}(),
a deadlock will happen.
The related source codes are below in kernel/bpf/helpers.c:
notrace BPF_CALL_1(bpf_spin_lock, struct bpf_spin_lock *, lock)
notrace BPF_CALL_1(bpf_spin_unlock, struct bpf_spin_lock *, lock)
notrace is supposed to prevent fentry prog from attaching to
bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}().
But actually this is not the case and fentry prog can successfully
attached to bpf_spin_lock(). Siddharth Chintamaneni reported
the issue in [1]. The following is the macro definition for
above BPF_CALL_1:
#define BPF_CALL_x(x, name, ...) \
static __always_inline \
u64 ____##name(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__)); \
typedef u64 (*btf_##name)(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__)); \
u64 name(__BPF_REG(x, __BPF_DECL_REGS, __BPF_N, __VA_ARGS__)); \
u64 name(__BPF_REG(x, __BPF_DECL_REGS, __BPF_N, __VA_ARGS__)) \
{ \
return ((btf_##name)____##name)(__BPF_MAP(x,__BPF_CAST,__BPF_N,__VA_ARGS__));\
} \
static __always_inline \
u64 ____##name(__BPF_MAP(x, __BPF_DECL_ARGS, __BPF_V, __VA_ARGS__))
#define BPF_CALL_1(name, ...) BPF_CALL_x(1, name, __VA_ARGS__)
The notrace attribute is actually applied to the static always_inline function
____bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}(). The actual callback function
bpf_spin_{lock,unlock}() is not marked with notrace, hence
allowing fentry prog to attach to two helpers, and this
may cause the above mentioned deadlock. Siddharth Chintamaneni
actually has a reproducer in [2].
To fix the issue, a new macro NOTRACE_BPF_CALL_1 is introduced which
will add notrace attribute to the original function instead of
the hidden always_inline function and this fixed the problem.
