Subject: [PATCH] kprobes - do not allow optimized kprobes in entry code
Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2011 18:05:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110215170507.GD3135@jolsa.brq.redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4D5AA209.7070309@hitachi.com>

You can crash the kernel using kprobe tracer by running:

echo "p system_call_after_swapgs" > ./kprobe_events
echo 1 > ./events/kprobes/enable

The reason is that at the system_call_after_swapgs label, the kernel
stack is not set up. If optimized kprobes are enabled, the user space
stack is being used in this case (see optimized kprobe template) and
this might result in a crash.

There are several places like this over the entry code (entry_$BIT).
As it seems there's no any reasonable/maintainable way to disable only
those places where the stack is not ready, I switched off the whole
entry code from kprobe optimizing.

wbr,
jirka
