When the kernel hits the probe\npoint, kprobe handler is invoked. And the copied instruction is single-step\nexecuted on the copied buffer (not on the original address) by kprobe. After\nthat, the kprobe checks registers and modify it (if need) as if the\ninstructions was executed on the original address.\n\nMy proposal is based on the fact there are many instructions which do NOT\nrequire the register modification after the single-step execution. When the\ncopied instruction is a kind of them, kprobe just jumps back to the next\ninstruction after single-step execution. If so, why don\u0027t we execute those\ninstructions directly?\n\nWith kprobe-booster patch, kprobes will execute a copied instruction directly\nand (if need) jump back to original code. This direct execution is executed\nwhen the kprobe don\u0027t have both post_handler and break_handler, and the copied\ninstruction can be executed directly.\n\nI sorted instructions which can be executed directly or not;\n\n- Call instructions are NG(can not be executed directly).\n We should correct the return address pushed into top of stack.\n- Indirect instructions except for absolute indirect-jumps\n are NG. Those instructions changes EIP randomly. We should\n check EIP and correct it.\n- Instructions that change EIP beyond the range of the\n instruction buffer are NG.\n- Instructions that change EIP to tail 5 bytes of the\n instruction buffer (it is the size of a jump instruction).\n We must write a jump instruction which backs to original\n kernel code in the instruction buffer.\n- Break point instruction is NG. We should not touch EIP and\n pass to other handlers.\n- Absolute direct/indirect jumps are OK.- Conditional Jumps are NG.\n- Halt and software-interruptions are NG. Because it will stay on\n the instruction buffer of kprobes.\n- Prefixes are NG.\n- Unknown/reserved opcode is NG.\n- Other 1 byte instructions are OK. But those instructions need a\n jump back code.\n- 2 bytes instructions are mapped sparsely. So, in this release,\n this patch don\u0027t boost those instructions.\n\n\u003eFrom Intel\u0027s IA-32 opcode map described in IA-32 Intel Architecture Software\nDeveloper\u0027s Manual Vol.2 B, I determined that following opcodes are not\nboostable.\n\n- 0FH (2byte escape)\n- 70H - 7FH (Jump on condition)\n- 9AH (Call) and 9CH (Pushf)\n- C0H-C1H (Grp 2: includes reserved opcode)\n- C6H-C7H (Grp11: includes reserved opcode)\n- CCH-CEH (Software-interrupt)\n- D0H-D3H (Grp2: includes reserved opcode)\n- D6H (Reserved)\n- D8H-DFH (Coprocessor)\n- E0H-E3H (loop/conditional jump)\n- E8H (Call)\n- F0H-F3H (Prefixes and reserved)\n- F4H (Halt)\n- F6H-F7H (Grp3: includes reserved opcode)\n- FEH-FFH(Grp4,5: includes reserved opcode)\n\nKprobe-booster checks whether target instruction can be boosted (can be\nexecuted directly) at arch_copy_kprobe() function. If the target instruction\ncan be boosted, it clears \"boostable\" flag. If not, it sets \"boostable\" flag\n-1. This is disabled status. In resume_execution() function, If \"boostable\"\nflag is cleared, kprobe-booster measures the size of the target instruction\nand sets \"boostable\" flag 1.\n\nIn kprobe_handler(), kprobe checks the \"boostable\" flag. If the flag is 1, it\nresets current kprobe and executes instruction buffer directly instead of\nsingle stepping.\n\nWhen unregistering a boosted kprobe, it calls synchronize_sched()\nafter \"int3\" is removed. So we can ensure followings after\nthe synchronize_sched() called.\n- interrupt handlers are finished on all CPUs.\n- instruction buffer is not executed on all CPUs.\nAnd we can release the boosted kprobe safely.\n\nAnd also, on preemptible kernel, the booster is not enabled where the kernel\npreemption is enabled. So, there are no preempted threads on the instruction\nbuffer.\n\nThe description of kretprobe-booster:\n\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\u003d\n\nIn the normal operation, kretprobe make a target function return to trampoline\ncode. And a kprobe (called trampoline_probe) have been inserted at the\ntrampoline code. When the kernel hits this kprobe, it calls kretprobe\u0027s\nhandler and it returns to original return address.\n\nKretprobe-booster patch removes the trampoline_probe. It allows the\ntram\u0018poline code to call kretprobe\u0027s handler directly instead of invoking\nkprobe. And tranpoline code returns to original return address.\n\nThis new trampoline code stores and restores registers, so the kretprobe\nhandler is still able to access those registers.\n\nCurrent kprobe has about 1.3 usec/probe(*) overhead, and kprobe-booster patch\nreduces it to 0.6 usec/probe(*). Also current kretprobe has about 2.0\nusec/probe(*) overhead. Kprobe-booster patch reduces it to 1.3 usec/probe(*),\nand the combination of both kprobe-booster patch and kretprobe-booster patch\nreduces it to 0.9 usec/probe(*).\n\nI expect the combination of both patches can reduce half of a probing\noverhead.\n\nPerformance numbers strongly depend on the processor model.\n\nAndrew Morton wrote:\n\u003e These preempt tricks look rather nasty. Can you please describe what the\n\u003e problem is, precisely? And how this code avoids it? Perhaps we can find\n\u003e something cleaner.\n\nThe problem is how to remove the copied instructions of the\nkprobe *safely* on the preemptable kernel (CONFIG_PREEMPT\u003dy).\n\nKprobes basically executes the following actions;\n\n(1)int3\n(2)preempt_disable()\n(3)kprobe_prehandler()\n(4)copied instructioin(single step)\n(5)kprobe_posthandler()\n(6)preempt_enable()\n(7)return to the original code\n\nDuring the execution of copied instruction, preemption is\ndisabled (from step (2) to (6)).\nWhen unregistering the probes, Kprobe waits for RCU\nquiescent state by using synchronize_sched() after removing\nint3 instruction.\nThus we can ensure the copied instruction is not executed.\n\nOn the other hand, kprobe-booster executes the following actions;\n\n(1)int3\n(2)preempt_disable()\n(3)kprobe_prehandler()\n(4)preempt_enable() \u003c-- this one is added by my patch\n(5)copied instruction(direct execution)\n(6)jmp back to the original code\n\nThe problem is that we have no way to prevent preemption on\nstep (5) or (6). We cannot call preempt_disable() after step (6),\nbecause there are no rooms to do that. Thus, some other\nprocesses may be preempted at step(5) or (6) on preemptable kernel.\nAnd I couldn\u0027t find the easy way to ensure that other processes\u0027\nstack do *not* have the address of them. (I thought some way\nto do that, but those are very costly.)\n\nSo currently, I simply boost the kprobe only when the probe\npoint is already preemption disabled.\n\n\u003e Also, the patch adds a preempt_enable() but I don\u0027t see a corresponding\n\u003e preempt_disable(). Am I missing something?\n\nIt is corresponding to the preempt_disable() in the top of\nkprobe_handler().\nI copied the code of kprobe_handler() here:\n\nstatic int __kprobes kprobe_handler(struct pt_regs *regs)\n{\n struct kprobe *p;\n int ret \u003d 0;\n kprobe_opcode_t *addr \u003d NULL;\n unsigned long *lp;\n struct kprobe_ctlblk *kcb;\n\n /*\n * We don\u0027t want to be preempted for the entire\n * duration of kprobe processing\n */\n preempt_disable(); \u003c-- HERE\n kcb \u003d get_kprobe_ctlblk();\n\nSigned-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu \u003chiramatu@sdl.hitachi.co.jp\u003e\nCc: Prasanna S Panchamukhi \u003cprasanna@in.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli \u003cananth@in.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Anil S Keshavamurthy \u003canil.s.keshavamurthy@intel.com\u003e\nCc: David S.

This leads to pending interrupts at LAPIC. LAPIC\n sends these interrupts to the CPU during early boot of second kernel. Other\n pending interrupts are discarded saying unexpected trap but timer interrupt\n is serviced and CPU does not issue an LAPIC EOI because it think this\n interrupt came from i8259 and sends ack to 8259. This leads to vector 0x31\n locking as LAPIC does not clear respective ISR and keeps on waiting for\n EOI.\n\no This patch issues extra EOI for the pending interrupts who have ISR set.\n\no Though today only timer seems to be the special case because in early\n boot it thinks interrupts are coming from i8259 and uses\n mask_and_ack_8259A() as ack handler and does not issue LAPIC EOI. But\n probably doing it in generic manner for all vectors makes sense.\n\nSigned-off-by: Vivek Goyal \u003cvgoyal@in.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "267b48014a5c0c2ae90b04dad5d95ceb903365a6", "tree": "95f5475b7b7f6e5b4fd023f51fb2fa826d95a754", "parents": [ "bd6633476922b7b51227f7f704c2546e763ae5ed" ], "author": { "name": "Andi Kleen", "email": "ak@suse.de", "time": "Sat Mar 25 16:31:10 2006 +0100" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Mar 25 09:10:56 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] x86_64: Try to allocate node memmap near the end of node\n\nThis fixes problems with very large nodes (over 128GB) filling up all of\nthe first 4GB with their mem_map and not leaving enough space for the\nswiotlb.\n\nSigned-off-by: Andi Kleen \u003cak@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "df92004ce60a0bb60c8315903c0765873c34a702", "tree": "420782e1621f8d5d44dd8b4ecc640cbcfc0c4131", "parents": [ "01d4bed417b5943577e9290fbf672ea9a449dc46" ], "author": { "name": "Arjan van de Ven", "email": "arjan@linux.intel.com", "time": "Sat Mar 25 16:31:01 2006 +0100" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Mar 25 09:10:56 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] x86_64: Reorder one field of the PDA to reduce padding\n\nThis reorders the mmu_state int in the pda, such that there is no more\npadding (there currently is 4 bytes of padding).
