From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> The TP_printk() portion of a trace event is executed at the time a event is read from the trace. This can happen seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years possibly later since the event was recorded. If the print format contains a dereference to a string via "%s", and that string was allocated, there's a chance that string could be freed before it is read by the trace file. To protect against such bugs, there are two functions that verify the event. The first one is test_event_printk(), which is called when the event is created. It reads the TP_printk() format as well as its arguments to make sure nothing may be dereferencing a pointer that was not copied into the ring buffer along with the event. If it is, it will trigger a WARN_ON(). For strings that use "%s", it is not so easy. The string may not reside in the ring buffer but may still be valid. Strings that are static and part of the kernel proper which will not be freed for the life of the running system, are safe to dereference. But to know if it is a pointer to a static string or to something on the heap can not be determined until the event is triggered. This brings us to the second function that tests for the bad dereferencing of strings, trace_check_vprintf(). It would walk through the printf format looking for "%s", and when it finds it, it would validate that the pointer is safe to read. If not, it would produces a WARN_ON() as well and write into the ring buffer "[UNSAFE-MEMORY]". The problem with this is how it used va_list to have vsnprintf() handle all the cases that it didn't need to check. Instead of re-implementing vsnprintf(), it would make a copy of the format up to the %s part, and call vsnprintf() with the current va_list ap variable, where the ap would then be ready to point at the string in question. For architectures that passed va_list by reference this was possible. For architectures that passed it by copy it was not. A test_can_verify() function was used to differentiate between the two, and if it wasn't possible, it would disable it. Even for architectures where this was feasible, it was a stretch to rely on such a method that is undocumented, and could cause issues later on with new optimizations of the compiler. Instead, the first function test_event_printk() was updated to look at "%s" as well. If the "%s" argument is a pointer outside the event in the ring buffer, it would find the field type of the event that is the problem and mark the structure with a new flag called "needs_test". The event itself will be marked by TRACE_EVENT_FL_TEST_STR to let it be known that this event has a field that needs to be verified before the event can be printed using the printf format. When the event fields are created from the field type structure, the fields would copy the field type's "needs_test" value. Finally, before being printed, a new function ignore_event() is called which will check if the event has the TEST_STR flag set (if not, it returns false). If the flag is set, it then iterates through the events fields looking for the ones that have the "needs_test" flag set. Then it uses the offset field from the field structure to find the pointer in the ring buffer event. It runs the tests to make sure that pointer is safe to print and if not, it triggers the WARN_ON() and also adds to the trace output that the event in question has an unsafe memory access. The ignore_event() makes the trace_check_vprintf() obsolete so it is removed.
