[PATCH] kprobes: function-return probes This patch adds function-return probes to kprobes for the i386 architecture. This enables you to establish a handler to be run when a function returns. 1. API Two new functions are added to kprobes: int register_kretprobe(struct kretprobe *rp); void unregister_kretprobe(struct kretprobe *rp); 2. Registration and unregistration 2.1 Register To register a function-return probe, the user populates the following fields in a kretprobe object and calls register_kretprobe() with the kretprobe address as an argument: kp.addr - the function's address handler - this function is run after the ret instruction executes, but before control returns to the return address in the caller. maxactive - The maximum number of instances of the probed function that can be active concurrently. For example, if the function is non- recursive and is called with a spinlock or mutex held, maxactive = 1 should be enough. If the function is non-recursive and can never relinquish the CPU (e.g., via a semaphore or preemption), NR_CPUS should be enough. maxactive is used to determine how many kretprobe_instance objects to allocate for this particular probed function. If maxactive <= 0, it is set to a default value (if CONFIG_PREEMPT maxactive=max(10, 2 * NR_CPUS) else maxactive=NR_CPUS) For example: struct kretprobe rp; rp.kp.addr = /* entrypoint address */ rp.handler = /*return probe handler */ rp.maxactive = /* e.g., 1 or NR_CPUS or 0, see the above explanation */ register_kretprobe(&rp); The following field may also be of interest: nmissed - Initialized to zero when the function-return probe is registered, and incremented every time the probed function is entered but there is no kretprobe_instance object available for establishing the function-return probe (i.e., because maxactive was set too low). 2.2 Unregister To unregiter a function-return probe, the user calls unregister_kretprobe() with the same kretprobe object as registered previously. If a probed function is running when the return probe is unregistered, the function will return as expected, but the handler won't be run. 3. Limitations 3.1 This patch supports only the i386 architecture, but patches for x86_64 and ppc64 are anticipated soon. 3.2 Return probes operates by replacing the return address in the stack (or in a known register, such as the lr register for ppc). This may cause __builtin_return_address(0), when invoked from the return-probed function, to return the address of the return-probes trampoline. 3.3 This implementation uses the "Multiprobes at an address" feature in 2.6.12-rc3-mm3. 3.4 Due to a limitation in multi-probes, you cannot currently establish a return probe and a jprobe on the same function. A patch to remove this limitation is being tested. This feature is required by SystemTap (http://sourceware.org/systemtap), and reflects ideas contributed by several SystemTap developers, including Will Cohen and Ananth Mavinakayanahalli.

If maxactive <= 0, it is set to a default value (if CONFIG_PREEMPT maxactive=max(10, 2 * NR_CPUS) else maxactive=NR_CPUS) For example: struct kretprobe rp; rp.kp.addr = /* entrypoint address */ rp.handler = /*return probe handler */ rp.maxactive = /* e.g., 1 or NR_CPUS or 0, see the above explanation */ register_kretprobe(&rp); The following field may also be of interest: nmissed - Initialized to zero when the function-return probe is registered, and incremented every time the probed function is entered but there is no kretprobe_instance object available for establishing the function-return probe (i.e., because maxactive was set too low). 2.2 Unregister To unregiter a function-return probe, the user calls unregister_kretprobe() with the same kretprobe object as registered previously. If a probed function is running when the return probe is unregistered, the function will return as expected, but the handler won't be run. 3. Limitations 3.1 This patch supports only the i386 architecture, but patches for x86_64 and ppc64 are anticipated soon. 3.2 Return probes operates by replacing the return address in the stack (or in a known register, such as the lr register for ppc). This may cause __builtin_return_address(0), when invoked from the return-probed function, to return the address of the return-probes trampoline. 3.3 This implementation uses the "Multiprobes at an address" feature in 2.6.12-rc3-mm3. 3.4 Due to a limitation in multi-probes, you cannot currently establish a return probe and a jprobe on the same function. A patch to remove this limitation is being tested. This feature is required by SystemTap (http://sourceware.org/systemtap), and reflects ideas contributed by several SystemTap developers, including Will Cohen and Ananth Mavinakayanahalli.

[PATCH] Move kprobe [dis]arming into arch specific code The architecture independent code of the current kprobes implementation is arming and disarming kprobes at registration time. The problem is that the code is assuming that arming and disarming is a just done by a simple write of some magic value to an address. This is problematic for ia64 where our instructions look more like structures, and we can not insert break points by just doing something like: *p->addr = BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION; The following patch to 2.6.12-rc4-mm2 adds two new architecture dependent functions: * void arch_arm_kprobe(struct kprobe *p) * void arch_disarm_kprobe(struct kprobe *p) and then adds the new functions for each of the architectures that already implement kprobes (spar64/ppc64/i386/x86_64). I thought arch_[dis]arm_kprobe was the most descriptive of what was really happening, but each of the architectures already had a disarm_kprobe() function that was really a "disarm and do some other clean-up items as needed when you stumble across a recursive kprobe." So... I took the liberty of changing the code that was calling disarm_kprobe() to call arch_disarm_kprobe(), and then do the cleanup in the block of code dealing with the recursive kprobe case. So far this patch as been tested on i386, x86_64, and ppc64, but still needs to be tested in sparc64.

[PATCH] kprobes: function-return probes This patch adds function-return probes to kprobes for the i386 architecture. This enables you to establish a handler to be run when a function returns. 1. API Two new functions are added to kprobes: int register_kretprobe(struct kretprobe *rp); void unregister_kretprobe(struct kretprobe *rp); 2. Registration and unregistration 2.1 Register To register a function-return probe, the user populates the following fields in a kretprobe object and calls register_kretprobe() with the kretprobe address as an argument: kp.addr - the function's address handler - this function is run after the ret instruction executes, but before control returns to the return address in the caller. maxactive - The maximum number of instances of the probed function that can be active concurrently. For example, if the function is non- recursive and is called with a spinlock or mutex held, maxactive = 1 should be enough. If the function is non-recursive and can never relinquish the CPU (e.g., via a semaphore or preemption), NR_CPUS should be enough. maxactive is used to determine how many kretprobe_instance objects to allocate for this particular probed function. If maxactive <= 0, it is set to a default value (if CONFIG_PREEMPT maxactive=max(10, 2 * NR_CPUS) else maxactive=NR_CPUS) For example: struct kretprobe rp; rp.kp.addr = /* entrypoint address */ rp.handler = /*return probe handler */ rp.maxactive = /* e.g., 1 or NR_CPUS or 0, see the above explanation */ register_kretprobe(&rp); The following field may also be of interest: nmissed - Initialized to zero when the function-return probe is registered, and incremented every time the probed function is entered but there is no kretprobe_instance object available for establishing the function-return probe (i.e., because maxactive was set too low). 2.2 Unregister To unregiter a function-return probe, the user calls unregister_kretprobe() with the same kretprobe object as registered previously.

Limitations 3.1 This patch supports only the i386 architecture, but patches for x86_64 and ppc64 are anticipated soon. 3.2 Return probes operates by replacing the return address in the stack (or in a known register, such as the lr register for ppc). This may cause __builtin_return_address(0), when invoked from the return-probed function, to return the address of the return-probes trampoline. 3.3 This implementation uses the "Multiprobes at an address" feature in 2.6.12-rc3-mm3. 3.4 Due to a limitation in multi-probes, you cannot currently establish a return probe and a jprobe on the same function. A patch to remove this limitation is being tested. This feature is required by SystemTap (http://sourceware.org/systemtap), and reflects ideas contributed by several SystemTap developers, including Will Cohen and Ananth Mavinakayanahalli.
