x86/kprobes: Fix crash when probing CS CALL instructionsgrafted
When using eBPF to probe CS CALL instructions within a function,
a crash can be triggered.
The eBPF tool probes offset 257 of the __hrtimer_run_queues()
function:
<__hrtimer_run_queues+249>: nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
<__hrtimer_run_queues+254>: mov %r14,%rdi
<__hrtimer_run_queues+257>: cs call <__x86_indirect_thunk_r12>
<__hrtimer_run_queues+263>: mov %eax,%r12d
<__hrtimer_run_queues+266>: xchg %ax,%ax
<__hrtimer_run_queues+268>: mov %r13,%rdi
Which triggers this crash:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 00000000000f41c9
#PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
PGD 0 P4D 0
Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP NOPTI
CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Kdump: loaded Tainted: P
RIP: 0010:__hrtimer_run_queues+0x106/0x230
Note that __hrtimer_run_queues+0x106 is __hrtimer_run_queues+262, which is
at the 6th byte of the above CS CALL instruction. Since the CS CALL
instruction occupies 6 bytes, the exception occurred in the middle of that
call instruction.
The root cause is that when using eBPF tools to probe in the middle of a
function, a kprobe with INT3 is used as the underlying implementation.
During single-step emulation of the original CALL instruction,
int3_emulate_call() assumes that the probed CALL instruction is 5 bytes
long. However, the actual CS-prefixed CALL instruction occupies 6 bytes,
so it constructs an incorrect exception return address. When the CPU
returns from the kprobe handler, the next instruction to be executed is at
the address of the last byte of that CS CALL instruction. Coincidentally,
starting from that address, the CPU fetches and decodes a completely
different instruction, which ultimately triggers a kernel crash.
Fix the issue by using the actual instruction length obtained from
the instruction decoder when constructing the exception return
address, rather than relying on the hardcoded CALL_INSN_SIZE macro.

Every SQE the server submits afterwards must follow the +same fixed-buffer protocol, carrying ``IORING_URING_CMD_FIXED`` and that same +``sqe->buf_index``. The same registered buffer can be reused for the server's +backing-store I/O as well (e.g. ``IORING_OP_READ_FIXED`` / +``IORING_OP_WRITE_FIXED``). + +Zero-copy +========= +Requirements: + +* The server must be privileged (``CAP_SYS_ADMIN``). +* A zero-copy queue: ``ADD_QUEUE`` with the ``FUSE_URING_ZERO_COPY`` flag set. +* A buffer pool: ``ADD_BUFPOOL``. +* For each entry, ``REGISTER`` with ``ent_zero_copy_buf_index`` set to the + index this entry uses in the server's io_uring registered-buffer table. + This is where the kernel registers the request's pages for the server to + access (it is separate from the payload pool). On a non-zero-copy queue this + field must be 0. + +Zero-copy is selected per open file. The server sets the open-file flag in +the ``FUSE_OPEN`` / ``FUSE_CREATE`` reply: + +``FOPEN_IO_URING_ZERO_COPY`` + Reads/writes on this open file should use zero-copy. + +For a request that is zero-copied, the kernel sets ``FUSE_URING_ENT_ZERO_COPY`` +in ``fuse_uring_ent_in_out.flags`` and places the request's pages at the +entry's ``ent_zero_copy_buf_index``. The server then issues +``IORING_OP_READ_FIXED`` / ``IORING_OP_WRITE_FIXED`` against that index to +transfer the data directly to/from the client's pages. + +For such a request, ``payload_sz`` includes the zero-copied page bytes +(transferred via the registered buffer at ``ent_zero_copy_buf_index``). Any +non-page-backed args (e.g. op headers) are still copied through the pool +payload buffer at ``offset``. |
