* [PATCH bpf-next 0/2] Add bpf_task_pt_regs() helper @ 2021-08-18 23:41 Daniel Xu 2021-08-18 23:41 ` [PATCH bpf-next 1/2] bpf: " Daniel Xu 2021-08-18 23:41 ` [PATCH bpf-next 2/2] bpf: selftests: Add bpf_task_pt_regs() selftest Daniel Xu 0 siblings, 2 replies; 6+ messages in thread From: Daniel Xu @ 2021-08-18 23:41 UTC (permalink / raw) To: bpf, yhs, andriin; +Cc: Daniel Xu, kernel-team, linux-kernel The motivation behind this helper is to access userspace pt_regs in a kprobe handler. uprobe's ctx is the userspace pt_regs. kprobe's ctx is the kernelspace pt_regs. bpf_task_pt_regs() allows accessing userspace pt_regs in a kprobe handler. The final case (kernelspace pt_regs in uprobe) is pretty rare (usermode helper) so I think that can be solved later if necessary. More concretely, this helper is useful in doing BPF-based DWARF stack unwinding. Currently the kernel can only do framepointer based stack unwinds for userspace code. This is because the DWARF state machines are too fragile to be computed in kernelspace [0]. The idea behind DWARF-based stack unwinds w/ BPF is to copy a chunk of the userspace stack (while in prog context) and send it up to userspace for unwinding (probably with libunwind) [1]. This would effectively enable profiling applications with -fomit-frame-pointer using kprobes and uprobes.

Few notes: 1. Given this is user pt_regs, should we call it bpf_get_user_pt_regs()? 2. Would it be safe to enable it for all types of programs, not just kprobe/tp/raw_tp/perf? Why limit the list? 3.

Few notes: > > 1. Given this is user pt_regs, should we call it bpf_get_user_pt_regs()? I'm not 100% sure, but it seems to me that task_pt_regs() works for kernel threads too. I see in arch/x86/kernel/smpboot.c that task_pt_regs() is being used on the idle thread (which I think is a kernel thread). > 2.
