15 years agox86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole

x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole

On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call.  A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.

In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use
the wrong system call number table.  The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT
instead of TIF_IA32.  Here is an example exploit:

/* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64

   There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32.

   The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could
   be any chmod call).  The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do
   stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly.

   A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a

Tom Zanussi pointed out that the simple TRACE_FIELD was not enough to
record trace data that required memcpy. This patch addresses this issue
by adding a TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL. The format is similar to TRACE_FIELD
but looks like so:

  TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL(type_item, item, cmd)

What TRACE_FIELD gave was:

  TRACE_FIELD(type, item, assign)

The TRACE_FIELD would be used in declaring a structure:

  struct {
type item;
  };

And later assign it via:

  entry->item = assign;

What TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL gives us is:

In the declaration of the structure:

  struct {
type_item;
  };

And the assignment:

  cmd;

This change log will explain the one example used in the patch:

 TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(sched_switch,
TPPROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev,
struct task_struct *next),
TPARGS(rq, prev, next),
TPFMT("task %s:%d ==> %s:%d",

TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, prev_pid, prev->pid)

    next_comm,
    TPCMD(memcpy(TRACE_ENTRY->next_comm,

TRACE_FIELD(int, next_prio, next->prio)
),
TPRAWFMT("prev %d:%d ==> next %s:%d:%d")
);

 The struct will be create as:

  struct {
pid_t prev_pid;
int prev_prio;
char next_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN];
pid_t next_pid;
int next_prio;
  };

Note the TRACE_ENTRY in the cmd part of TRACE_SPECIAL. TRACE_ENTRY will
be set by the tracer to point to the structure inside the trace buffer.

  entry->prev_pid = prev->pid;
  entry->prev_prio = prev->prio;
  memcpy(entry->next_comm, next->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN);

tracing: add raw trace point recording infrastructure

Impact: lower overhead tracing

The current event tracer can automatically pick up trace points
that are registered with the TRACE_FORMAT macro. But it required
a printf format string and parsing. Although, this adds the ability
to get guaranteed information like task names and such, it took
a hit in overhead processing. This processing can add about 500-1000
nanoseconds overhead, but in some cases that too is considered
too much and we want to shave off as much from this overhead as
possible.

Tom Zanussi recently posted tracing patches to lkml that are based
on a nice idea about capturing the data via C structs using
STRUCT_ENTER, STRUCT_EXIT type of macros.

I liked that method very much, but did not like the implementation
that required a developer to add data/code in several disjoint
locations.

This patch extends the event_tracer macros to do a similar "raw C"
approach that Tom Zanussi did. But instead of having the developers
needing to tweak a bunch of code all over the place, they can do it
all in one macro - preferably placed near the code that it is
tracing. That makes it much more likely that tracepoints will be
maintained on an ongoing basis by the code they modify.

The new macro TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT is created for this approach. (Note,
a developer may still utilize the more low level DECLARE_TRACE macros
if they don't care about getting their traces automatically in the event
tracer.)

They can also use the existing TRACE_FORMAT if they don't need to code
the tracepoint in C, but just want to use the convenience of printf.

So if the developer wants to "hardwire" a tracepoint in the fastest
possible way, and wants to acquire their data via a user space utility
in a raw binary format, or wants to see it in the trace output but not
sacrifice any performance, then they can implement the faster but
more complex TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT macro.

Here's what usage looks like:

  TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(name,
TPPROTO(proto),
TPARGS(args),
TPFMT(fmt, fmt_args),
TRACE_STUCT(
TRACE_FIELD(type1, item1, assign1)
TRACE_FIELD(type2, item2, assign2)
[...]
),
TPRAWFMT(raw_fmt)
);

Note name, proto, args, and fmt, are all identical to what TRACE_FORMAT
uses.

 name: is the unique identifier of the trace point
 proto: The proto type that the trace point uses
 args: the args in the proto type
 fmt: printf format to use with the event printf tracer
 fmt_args: the printf argments to match fmt

 TRACE_STRUCT starts the ability to create a structure.
 Each item in the structure is defined with a TRACE_FIELD

  TRACE_FIELD(type, item, assign)

 type: the C type of item.
 item: the name of the item in the stucture
 assign: what to assign the item in the trace point callback

 raw_fmt is a way to pretty print the struct. It must match
  the order of the items are added in TRACE_STUCT

 An example of this would be:

 TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(sched_wakeup,
TPPROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p, int success),
TPARGS(rq, p, success),
TPFMT("task %s:%d %s",
      p->comm, p->pid, success?"succeeded":"failed"),
TRACE_STRUCT(
TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, pid, p->pid)
TRACE_FIELD(int, success, success)
),
TPRAWFMT("task %d success=%d")
);

 This creates us a unique struct of:

 struct {
pid_t pid;
int success;
 };

 And the way the call back would assign these values would be:

entry->pid = p->pid;
entry->success = success;

The nice part about this is that the creation of the assignent is done
via macro magic in the event tracer.  Once the TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT is
created, the developer will then have a faster method to record
into the ring buffer. They do not need to worry about the tracer itself.

The developer would only need to touch the files in include/trace/*.h

Again, I would like to give special thanks to Tom Zanussi for this
nice idea.

tracing: make the set_event and available_events subsystem aware

This patch makes the event files, set_event and available_events
aware of the subsystem.

Now you can enable an entire subsystem with:

  echo 'irq:*' > set_event

Note: the '*' is not needed.

15 years agotracing: add subsystem level to trace events
Steven Rostedt [Sat, 28 Feb 2009 02:33:02 +0000 (21:33 -0500)]
tracing: add subsystem level to trace events

If a trace point header defines TRACE_SYSTEM, then it will add the
following trace points into that event system.

If include/trace/irq_event_types.h has:

 #define TRACE_SYSTEM irq

at the top and

 #undef TRACE_SYSTEM

at the bottom, then a directory "irq" will be created in the
/debug/tracing/events directory. Inside that directory will contain the
two trace points that are defined in include/trace/irq_event_types.h.

Only adding the above to irq and not to sched, we get:

 # ls /debug/tracing/events/
irq                     sched_process_exit  sched_signal_send  sched_wakeup_new
sched_kthread_stop      sched_process_fork  sched_switch
sched_kthread_stop_ret  sched_process_free  sched_wait_task
sched_migrate_task      sched_process_wait  sched_wakeup

 # ls /debug/tracing/events/irq
irq_handler_entry  irq_handler_exit

If we add #define TRACE_SYSTEM sched to the trace/sched_event_types.h
then the rest of the trace events will be put in a sched directory
within the events directory.

I've been playing with this idea of the subsystem for a while, but
recently Tom Zanussi posted some patches to lkml that included this
method. Tom's approach was clean and got me to finally put some effort
to clean up the event trace points.

Thanks to Tom Zanussi for demonstrating how nice the subsystem
method is.

15 years agotracing: move trace point formats to files in include/trace directory
Steven Rostedt [Fri, 27 Feb 2009 22:36:06 +0000 (17:36 -0500)]
tracing: move trace point formats to files in include/trace directory

Impact: clean up

To further facilitate the ease of adding trace points for developers, this
patch creates include/trace/trace_events.h and
include/trace/trace_event_types.h.

The former file will hold the trace/<type>.h files and the latter will hold
the trace/<type>_event_types.h files.

To create new tracepoints and to have them automatically
appear in the event tracer, a developer makes the trace/<type>.h file
which includes <linux/tracepoint.h> and the trace/<type>_event_types.h file.

The trace/<type>_event_types.h file will hold the TRACE_FORMAT
macros.

Then add the trace/<type>.h file to trace/trace_events.h,
and add the trace/<type>_event_types.h to the trace_event_types.h file.

No need to modify files elsewhere.
