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.

+ * mpscq - lockless multi-producer, single-consumer FIFO queue
+ *
+ * Unlike llist, which is LIFO ordered and hence needs an O(n)
+ * llist_reverse_order() pass before entries can be processed in queue order,
+ * this queue hands out nodes in the order they were pushed.
+ *
+ * The consumer cursor is held by the caller rather than in the queue struct
+ * (see below), and with the stub reinsertion done as a single cmpxchg attempt
+ * instead of an unconditional push, keeping tail == stub a reliable empty test
+ * while a producer is in the middle of a push.
+ *
+ * Producers may run in any context (task, softirq, hardirq) and are wait-free:
+ * a push is one xchg() plus one store, with no retry loops. FIFO order between
+ * producers is the order in which the xchg() on ->tail serializes them.
+ *
+ * The price for linked-list FIFO is that a push publishes the node in two
+ * steps: the xchg() makes it the new tail, and the subsequent store links it to
+ * its predecessor. In between, the tail end of the queue is not yet reachable
+ * from the head. mpscq_pop() detects this and returns NULL, while mpscq_empty()
+ * reports false. The consumer must not treat such a NULL as "queue empty" - it
+ * should retry later. The window is two instructions wide, but a producer can
+ * be preempted inside it, so the consumer must not spin on it while holding
+ * resources the producer might need to make progress.
+ *
+ * The consumer side only supports a single consumer at a time, callers must
+ * provide their own serialization for it. The stub node is what allows the
+ * consumer to detach the final node without racing with the link stores of
+ * producers. This scheme also guarantees that the previous tail observed by
+ * mpscq_push() cannot be freed by the consumer until the push has linked it,
+ * which is what makes the deferred link store safe.
+ *
+ * The queue struct only holds the producer side. The consumer keeps its cursor
+ * (the oldest not yet handed out node) externally and passes it to mpscq_pop(),
+ * so that it can be placed on a different cacheline: the cursor is written for
+ * every pop, and having it share a line with ->tail would have the consumer
+ * invalidating the line that producers need for every push.
