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.

+/* The 842 compressed format is made up of multiple blocks, each of
+ * which have the format:
+ *
+ * <template>[arg1][arg2][arg3][arg4]
+ *
+ * where there are between 0 and 4 template args, depending on the specific
+ * template operation. For normal operations, each arg is either a specific
+ * number of data bytes to add to the output buffer, or an index pointing
+ * to a previously-written number of data bytes to copy to the output buffer.
+ *
+ * The template code is a 5-bit value. This code indicates what to do with
+ * the following data. Template codes from 0 to 0x19 should use the template
+ * table, the static "decomp_ops" table used in decompress. For each template
+ * (table row), there are between 1 and 4 actions; each action corresponds to
+ * an arg following the template code bits. Each action is either a "data"
+ * type action, or a "index" type action, and each action results in 2, 4, or 8
+ * bytes being written to the output buffer. Each template (i.e. all actions
+ * in the table row) will add up to 8 bytes being written to the output buffer.
+ * Any row with less than 4 actions is padded with noop actions, indicated by
+ * N0 (for which there is no corresponding arg in the compressed data buffer).
+ *
+ * "Data" actions, indicated in the table by D2, D4, and D8, mean that the
+ * corresponding arg is 2, 4, or 8 bytes, respectively, in the compressed data
+ * buffer should be copied directly to the output buffer.
+ *
+ * "Index" actions, indicated in the table by I2, I4, and I8, mean the
+ * corresponding arg is an index parameter that points to, respectively, a 2,
+ * 4, or 8 byte value already in the output buffer, that should be copied to
+ * the end of the output buffer. Essentially, the index points to a position
+ * in a ring buffer that contains the last N bytes of output buffer data.
+ * The number of bits for each index's arg are: 8 bits for I2, 9 bits for I4,
+ * and 8 bits for I8. Since each index points to a 2, 4, or 8 byte section,
+ * this means that I2 can reference 512 bytes ((2^8 bits = 256) * 2 bytes), I4
+ * can reference 2048 bytes ((2^9 = 512) * 4 bytes), and I8 can reference 2048
+ * bytes ((2^8 = 256) * 8 bytes). Think of it as a kind-of ring buffer for
+ * each of I2, I4, and I8 that are updated for each byte written to the output
+ * buffer. In this implementation, the output buffer is directly used for each
+ * index; there is no additional memory required. Note that the index is into
+ * a ring buffer, not a sliding window; for example, if there have been 260
+ * bytes written to the output buffer, an I2 index of 0 would index to byte 256
+ * in the output buffer, while an I2 index of 16 would index to byte 16 in the
+ * output buffer.
+ *
+ * There are also 3 special template codes; 0x1b for "repeat", 0x1c for
+ * "zeros", and 0x1e for "end". The "repeat" operation is followed by a 6 bit
+ * arg N indicating how many times to repeat. The last 8 bytes written to the
+ * output buffer are written again to the output buffer, N + 1 times. The
+ * "zeros" operation, which has no arg bits, writes 8 zeros to the output
+ * buffer. The "end" operation, which also has no arg bits, signals the end
+ * of the compressed data. There may be some number of padding (don't care,
+ * but usually 0) bits after the "end" operation bits, to fill the buffer
+ * length to a specific byte multiple (usually a multiple of 8, 16, or 32
+ * bytes).
+ *
+ * This software implementation also uses one of the undefined template values,
+ * 0x1d as a special "short data" template code, to represent less than 8 bytes
+ * of uncompressed data. It is followed by a 3 bit arg N indicating how many
+ * data bytes will follow, and then N bytes of data, which should be copied to
+ * the output buffer. This allows the software 842 compressor to accept input
+ * buffers that are not an exact multiple of 8 bytes long. However, those
+ * compressed buffers containing this sw-only template will be rejected by
+ * the 842 hardware decompressor, and must be decompressed with this software
+ * library. The 842 software compression module includes a parameter to
+ * disable using this sw-only "short data" template, and instead simply
+ * reject any input buffer that is not a multiple of 8 bytes long.
+ *
+ * After all actions for each operation code are processed, another template
+ * code is in the next 5 bits. The decompression ends once the "end" template
+ * code is detected.
