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.

+ * HIGHMEM API:
+ *
+ * kmap() API provides sleep semantics hence referred to as "permanent maps"
+ * It allows mapping LAST_PKMAP pages, using @last_pkmap_nr as the cursor
+ * for book-keeping
+ *
+ * kmap_atomic() can't sleep (calls pagefault_disable()), thus it provides
+ * shortlived ala "temporary mappings" which historically were implemented as
+ * fixmaps (compile time addr etc). Their book-keeping is done per cpu.
+ *
+ * Both these facts combined (preemption disabled and per-cpu allocation)
+ * means the total number of concurrent fixmaps will be limited to max
+ * such allocations in a single control path. Thus KM_TYPE_NR (another
+ * historic relic) is a small'ish number which caps max percpu fixmaps
+ *
+ * ARC HIGHMEM Details
+ *
+ * - the kernel vaddr space from 0x7z to 0x8z (currently used by vmalloc/module)
+ * is now shared between vmalloc and kmap (non overlapping though)
+ *
+ * - Both fixmap/pkmap use a dedicated page table each, hooked up to swapper PGD
+ * This means each only has 1 PGDIR_SIZE worth of kvaddr mappings, which means
+ * 2M of kvaddr space for typical config (8K page and 11:8:13 traversal split)
+ *
+ * - The fixed KMAP slots for kmap_local/atomic() require KM_MAX_IDX slots per
+ * CPU. So the number of CPUs sharing a single PTE page is limited.
+ *
+ * - pkmap being preemptible, in theory could do with more than 256 concurrent
+ * mappings. However, generic pkmap code: map_new_virtual(), doesn't traverse
+ * the PGD and only works with a single page table @pkmap_page_table, hence
+ * sets the limit
