powerpc/pseries: Fix STK_PARAM access in the hcall tracing code
In powerpc pseries system, below behaviour is observed while enabling tracing on hcall: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/ # cat events/powerpc/hcall_exit/enable 0 # echo 1 > events/powerpc/hcall_exit/enable # ls -bash: fork: Bad address Above is from power9 lpar with latest kernel. Past this, softlockup is observed. Initially while attempting via perf_event_open to use "PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT", kernel panic was observed. perf config used: ================ memset(&pe[1],0,sizeof(struct perf_event_attr)); pe[1].type=PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT; pe[1].size=96; pe[1].config=0x26ULL; /* 38 raw_syscalls/sys_exit */ pe[1].sample_type=0; /* 0 */ pe[1].read_format=PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_ENABLED|PERF_FORMAT_TOTAL_TIME_RUNNING|PERF_FORMAT_ID|PERF_FORMAT_GROUP|0x10ULL; /* 1f */ pe[1].inherit=1; pe[1].precise_ip=0; /* arbitrary skid */ pe[1].wakeup_events=0; pe[1].bp_type=HW_BREAKPOINT_EMPTY; pe[1].config1=0x1ULL; Kernel panic logs: ================== Kernel attempted to read user page (8) - exploit attempt?

With the latest kernel, when running on ELFv2, STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE is used to allocate stack size. During plpar_hcall_trace, first call is made to HCALL_INST_PRECALL which saves the registers and allocates new stack frame. In the plpar_hcall_trace code, STK_PARAM is accessed at two places. 1. To save r4: std r4,STK_PARAM(R4)(r1) 2. To access r4 back: ld r12,STK_PARAM(R4)(r1) HCALL_INST_PRECALL precall allocates a new stack frame. So all the stack parameter access after the precall, needs to be accessed with +STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE. So the store instruction should be: std r4,STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE+STK_PARAM(R4)(r1) If the "std" is not updated with STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE, we will end up with overwriting stack contents and cause corruption. But instead of updating 'std', we can instead remove it since HCALL_INST_PRECALL already saves it to the correct location. similarly load instruction should be: ld r12,STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE+STK_PARAM(R4)(r1) Fix the load instruction to correctly access the stack parameter with +STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE and remove the store of r4 since the precall saves it correctly.
