2022-02-23livepatch: Skip livepatch tests if ftrace cannot be configuredDavid Vernet2-4/+21
livepatch has a set of selftests that are used to validate the behavior of the livepatching subsystem. One of the testcases in the livepatch testsuite is test-ftrace.sh, which among other things, validates that livepatching gracefully fails when ftrace is disabled. In the event that ftrace cannot be disabled using 'sysctl kernel.ftrace_enabled=0', the test will fail later due to it unexpectedly successfully loading the test_klp_livepatch module. While the livepatch selftests are careful to remove any of the livepatch test modules between testcases to avoid this situation, ftrace may still fail to be disabled if another trace is active on the system that was enabled with FTRACE_OPS_FL_PERMANENT. For example, any active BPF programs that use trampolines will cause this test to fail due to the trampoline being implemented with register_ftrace_direct(). The following is an example of such a trace: tcp_drop (1) R I D tramp: ftrace_regs_caller+0x0/0x58 (call_direct_funcs+0x0/0x30) direct-->bpf_trampoline_6442550536_0+0x0/0x1000 In order to make the test more resilient to system state that is out of its control, this patch updates set_ftrace_enabled() to detect sysctl failures, and skip the testrun when appropriate.

2020-08-27selftests/livepatch: Do not check order when using "comm" for dmesg checkingMiroslav Benes1-1/+1
check_result() uses "comm" to check expected results of selftests output in dmesg. Everything works fine if timestamps in dmesg are unique. If not, like in this example [ 86.844422] test_klp_callbacks_demo: pre_unpatch_callback: test_klp_callbacks_mod -> [MODULE_STATE_LIVE] Normal state [ 86.844422] livepatch: 'test_klp_callbacks_demo': starting unpatching transition , "comm" fails with "comm: file 2 is not in sorted order".

2020-07-15selftests/livepatch: adopt to newer sysctl error formatPetr Mladek2-2/+3
With procfs v3.3.16, the sysctl command doesn't print the set key and value on error. This change breaks livepatch selftest test-ftrace.sh, that tests the interaction of sysctl ftrace_enabled: Make it work with all sysctl versions using '-q' option. Explicitly print the final status on success so that it can be verified in the log. The error message is enough on failure.

2020-06-19selftests/livepatch: refine dmesg 'taints' in dmesg comparisonJoe Lawrence1-1/+2
The livepatch selftests currently grep on "taints" to filter out "tainting kernel with TAINT_LIVEPATCH" messages which may be logged when loading livepatch modules. Further filter the log to drop "loading out-of-tree module taints kernel" in the rare case the klp_test modules have been built out-of-tree. Look for the longer "taints kernel" or "tainting kernel" strings to avoid inadvertent partial matching.

The test-klp-callbacks script includes a few tests which rely on kernel task timings that may not always execute as expected under system load. These may generate out of sequence kernel log messages that result in test failure. Instead of using sleep timing windows to orchestrate these tests, add a block_transition module parameter to communicate the test purpose and utilize flush_queue() to serialize the test module's task output.

2020-02-20selftests: Install settings files to fix TIMEOUT failuresMichael Ellerman1-0/+2
Commit 852c8cbf34d3 ("selftests/kselftest/runner.sh: Add 45 second timeout per test") added a 45 second timeout for tests, and also added a way for tests to customise the timeout via a settings file. For example the ftrace tests take multiple minutes to run, so they were given longer in commit b43e78f65b1d ("tracing/selftests: Turn off timeout setting"). This works when the tests are run from the source tree. However if the tests are installed with "make -C tools/testing/selftests install", the settings files are not copied into the install directory. When the tests are then run from the install directory the longer timeouts are not applied and the tests timeout incorrectly. So add the settings files to TEST_FILES of the appropriate Makefiles to cause the settings files to be installed using the existing install logic.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "New tracing features: - New PERMANENT flag to ftrace_ops when attaching a callback to a function. As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable all attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on live kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a ftrace_ops is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it will prevent ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if ftrace_enabled is already disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops with PREMANENT flag set from being registered. - New register_ftrace_direct(). As eBPF would like to register its own trampolines to be called by the ftrace nop locations directly, without going through the ftrace trampoline, this function has been added. This allows for eBPF trampolines to live along side of ftrace, perf, kprobe and live patching. It also utilizes the ftrace enabled_functions file that keeps track of functions that have been modified in the kernel, to allow for security auditing. - Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances. Subsystems in the kernel can now create and destroy their own tracing instances which allows them to have their own tracing buffer, and be able to record events without worrying about other users from writing over their data. - New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their seq_buf usage. - Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency tracers. - Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch and friends. - More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16) - Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the system call trace events.
