From 7be76461f302ec05cbd62b90b2a05c64299ca01f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" Date: Tue, 5 Dec 2023 16:52:09 -0500 Subject: tracing: Always update snapshot buffer size It use to be that only the top level instance had a snapshot buffer (for latency tracers like wakeup and irqsoff). The update of the ring buffer size would check if the instance was the top level and if so, it would also update the snapshot buffer as it needs to be the same as the main buffer. Now that lower level instances also has a snapshot buffer, they too need to update their snapshot buffer sizes when the main buffer is changed, otherwise the following can be triggered: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # echo 1500 > buffer_size_kb # mkdir instances/foo # echo irqsoff > instances/foo/current_tracer # echo 1000 > instances/foo/buffer_size_kb Produces: WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 856 at kernel/trace/trace.c:1938 update_max_tr_single.part.0+0x27d/0x320 Which is: ret = ring_buffer_swap_cpu(tr->max_buffer.buffer, tr->array_buffer.buffer, cpu); if (ret == -EBUSY) { [..] } WARN_ON_ONCE(ret && ret != -EAGAIN && ret != -EBUSY); <== here That's because ring_buffer_swap_cpu() has: int ret = -EINVAL; [..] /* At least make sure the two buffers are somewhat the same */ if (cpu_buffer_a->nr_pages != cpu_buffer_b->nr_pages) goto out; [..] out: return ret; } Instead, update all instances' snapshot buffer sizes when their main buffer size is updated.

For instance, there's a race with irqsoff tracer that swaps individual per cpu buffers between the main buffer and the snapshot buffer. The resize operation modifies the main buffer and then the snapshot buffer. If a swap happens in between those two operations it will break the tracer. Simply stop the running tracer before resizing the buffers and enable it again when finished.

It happens because the active ring_buffer_event doesn't actually come from the ring_buffer_per_cpu but is allocated from trace_buffered_event. The bug is in function trace_buffered_event_disable() where the following normally happens: * The code invokes disable_trace_buffered_event() via smp_call_function_many() and follows it by synchronize_rcu(). This increments the per-CPU variable trace_buffered_event_cnt on each target CPU and grants trace_buffered_event_disable() the exclusive access to the per-CPU variable trace_buffered_event. * Maintenance is performed on trace_buffered_event, all per-CPU event buffers get freed. * The code invokes enable_trace_buffered_event() via smp_call_function_many(). This decrements trace_buffered_event_cnt and releases the access to trace_buffered_event. A problem is that smp_call_function_many() runs a given function on all target CPUs except on the current one. The following can then occur: * Task X executing trace_buffered_event_disable() runs on CPU 0. * The control reaches synchronize_rcu() and the task gets rescheduled on another CPU 1. * The RCU synchronization finishes. At this point, trace_buffered_event_disable() has the exclusive access to all trace_buffered_event variables except trace_buffered_event[CPU0] because trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU0] is never incremented and if the buffer is currently unused, remains set to 0. * A different task Y is scheduled on CPU 0 and hits a trace event. The code in trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() sees that trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU0] is set to 0 and decides the use the buffer provided by trace_buffered_event[CPU0]. * Task X continues its execution in trace_buffered_event_disable(). The code incorrectly frees the event buffer pointed by trace_buffered_event[CPU0] and resets the variable to NULL. * Task Y writes event data to the now freed buffer and later detects the created inconsistency. The issue is observable since commit dea499781a11 ("tracing: Fix warning in trace_buffered_event_disable()") which moved the call of trace_buffered_event_disable() in __ftrace_event_enable_disable() earlier, prior to invoking call->class->reg(.. TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER ..). The underlying problem in trace_buffered_event_disable() is however present since the original implementation in commit 0fc1b09ff1ff ("tracing: Use temp buffer when filtering events"). Fix the problem by replacing the two smp_call_function_many() calls with on_each_cpu_mask() which invokes a given callback on all CPUs.

The following race is currently possible: * Function trace_buffered_event_disable() is called on CPU 0. It increments trace_buffered_event_cnt on each CPU and waits via synchronize_rcu() for each user of trace_buffered_event to complete. * After synchronize_rcu() is finished, function trace_buffered_event_disable() has the exclusive access to trace_buffered_event. All counters trace_buffered_event_cnt are at 1 and all pointers trace_buffered_event are still valid. * At this point, on a different CPU 1, the execution reaches trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve(). The function calls preempt_disable_notrace() and only now enters an RCU read-side critical section. The function proceeds and reads a still valid pointer from trace_buffered_event[CPU1] into the local variable "entry". However, it doesn't yet read trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1] which happens later. * Function trace_buffered_event_disable() continues. It frees trace_buffered_event[CPU1] and decrements trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1] back to 0. * Function trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() continues. It reads and increments trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1] from 0 to 1. This makes it believe that it can use the "entry" that it already obtained but the pointer is now invalid and any access results in a use-after-free. Fix the problem by making a second synchronize_rcu() call after all trace_buffered_event values are set to NULL. This waits on all potential users in trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() that still read a previous pointer from trace_buffered_event.

This can screw up the timings. If the event is going to be discarded, set the "before_stamp" to zero. When a new event comes in, it compares the "before_stamp" with the "write_stamp" and if they are not equal, it will insert an absolute timestamp. This will prevent the timings from getting out of sync due to the discarded event.

It originally just used 60 bits and broke it up into two 32 bit words where the extra 2 bits were used for synchronization. But this was not enough for all use cases, and all 64 bits were required. The 32bit version of the ring buffer timestamp was then broken up into 3 32bit words using the same counter trick. But one update was not done. The check to see if the read operation was done without interruption only checked the first two words and not last one (like it had before this update). Fix it by making sure all three updates happen without interruption by comparing the initial counter with the last updated counter.
