[PATCH v1 5/9] uretprobes: Return probe entry, prepare_uretprobe()

From: Anton Arapov
Date: Wed Apr 03 2013 - 12:01:43 EST


When a uprobe with return probe consumer is hit, prepare_uretprobe()
function is invoked. It creates return_instance, hijacks return address
and replaces it with the trampoline.

* Return instances are kept as stack per uprobed task.
* Return instance is chained, when the original return address is
trampoline's page vaddr (e.g. recursive call of the probed function).

v1 changes:
* preserve address of the breakpoint in return_instance.
* don't forget NULLify return_instances on free_utask.
* simplify prepare_uretprobe().

RFCv6 changes:
* rework prepare_uretprobe() logic in order to make further unwinding
in handler_uretprobe() simplier.
* introduce the 'dirty' field.

RFCv5 changes:
* switch from hlist to simply linked list for tracking ->*return_uprobes.
* preallocate first slot xol_area for return probes, see xol_get_area()
changes.
* add get_trampoline_vaddr() helper, to emphasize area->vaddr overload.

RFCv4 changes:
* get rid of area->rp_trampoline_vaddr as it always the same as ->vaddr.
* cleanup ->return_uprobes list in uprobe_free_utask(), because the
task can exit from inside the ret-probe'd function(s).
* in find_active_uprobe(): Once we inserted "int3" we must ensure that
handle_swbp() will be called even if this uprobe goes away. We have
the reference but it only protects uprobe itself, it can't protect
agains delete_uprobe().
IOW, we must ensure that uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier() can't return 0.

RFCv3 changes:
* protected uprobe with refcounter. See atomic_inc in prepare_uretprobe()
and put_uprobe() in a following patch in handle_uretprobe().

RFCv2 changes:
* get rid of ->return_consumers member from struct uprobe, introduce
ret_handler() in consumer.
