[PATCH -tip v8 13/13] x86/kprobes: Fixup return address in generic trampoline handler

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Fri Jun 18 2021 - 03:07:41 EST


In x86, kretprobe trampoline address on the stack frame will
be replaced with the real return address after returning from
trampoline_handler. Before fixing the return address, the real
return address can be found in the current->kretprobe_instances.

However, since there is a window between updating the
current->kretprobe_instances and fixing the address on the stack,
if an interrupt caused at that timing and the interrupt handler
does stacktrace, it may fail to unwind because it can not get
the correct return address from current->kretprobe_instances.

This will minimize that window by fixing the return address
right before updating current->kretprobe_instances.
