The nesting protection in bpf_perf_event_output relies on disabled preemption, which is guaranteed for kprobes and tracepoints. However bpf_perf_event_output can be also called from uprobes context through bpf_prog_run_array_sleepable function which disables migration, but keeps preemption enabled. This can cause task to be preempted by another one inside the nesting protection and lead eventually to two tasks using same perf_sample_data buffer and cause crashes like: kernel tried to execute NX-protected page - exploit attempt? (uid: 0) BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffff82be3eea ...

We received report [1] of kernel crash, which is caused by using nesting protection without disabled preemption. The bpf_event_output can be called by programs executed by bpf_prog_run_array_cg function that disabled migration but keeps preemption enabled. This can cause task to be preempted by another one inside the nesting protection and lead eventually to two tasks using same perf_sample_data buffer and cause crashes like: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000001 #PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0010) - not-present page ... ? perf_output_sample+0x12a/0x9a0 ? finish_task_switch.isra.0+0x81/0x280 ? perf_event_output+0x66/0xa0 ? bpf_event_output+0x13a/0x190 ? bpf_event_output_data+0x22/0x40 ? bpf_prog_dfc84bbde731b257_cil_sock4_connect+0x40a/0xacb ? xa_load+0x87/0xe0 ? __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sock_addr+0xc1/0x1a0 ? release_sock+0x3e/0x90 ? sk_setsockopt+0x1a1/0x12f0 ? udp_pre_connect+0x36/0x50 ? inet_dgram_connect+0x93/0xa0 ? __sys_connect+0xb4/0xe0 ? udp_setsockopt+0x27/0x40 ? __pfx_udp_push_pending_frames+0x10/0x10 ? __sys_setsockopt+0xdf/0x1a0 ? __x64_sys_connect+0xf/0x20 ? do_syscall_64+0x3a/0x90 ? entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc Fixing this by disabling preemption in bpf_event_output.

Verifier log avoids printing the same source code line multiple times
when a consecutive block of BPF assembly instructions are covered by the
same original (C) source code line. This greatly improves verifier log
legibility.
Unfortunately, this check is imperfect and in production applications it
quite often happens that verifier log will have multiple duplicated
source lines emitted, for no apparently good reason. E.g., this is
excerpt from a real-world BPF application (with register states omitted
for clarity):

; barrier_var(payload_off); @ strobemeta_probe.bpf.c:280
5384: (bf) r2 = r6 ;
5385: (bf) r1 = r4 ;
As can be seen, line 394 is emitted thrice, 396 is emitted twice, and
line 400 is duplicated as well. Note that there are no intermingling
other lines of source code in between these duplicates, so the issue is
not compiler reordering assembly instruction such that multiple original
source code lines are in effect.
It becomes more obvious what's going on if we look at *full* original line info
information (using btfdump for this, [0]):
#2764: line: insn #5363 --> 394:3 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c
for (int i = 0; i < STROBE_MAX_MAP_ENTRIES; ++i) {
#2765: line: insn #5373 --> 394:21 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c
for (int i = 0; i < STROBE_MAX_MAP_ENTRIES; ++i) {
#2766: line: insn #5375 --> 394:47 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c
for (int i = 0; i < STROBE_MAX_MAP_ENTRIES; ++i) {
#2767: line: insn #5377 --> 394:3 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c
for (int i = 0; i < STROBE_MAX_MAP_ENTRIES; ++i) {
#2768: line: insn #5378 --> 414:10 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c
return off;
We can see that there are four line info records covering
instructions #5363 through #5377 (instruction indices are shifted due to
subprog instruction being appended to main program), all of them are
pointing to the same C source code line #394. But each of them points to
a different part of that line, which is denoted by differing column
numbers (3, 21, 47, 3).
But verifier log doesn't distinguish between parts of the same source code line
and doesn't emit this column number information, so for end user it's just a
repetitive visual noise. So let's improve the detection of repeated source code
line and avoid this.
With the changes in this patch, we get this output for the same piece of BPF
program log:

As can be seen, line 394 is emitted thrice, 396 is emitted twice, and
line 400 is duplicated as well. Note that there are no intermingling
other lines of source code in between these duplicates, so the issue is
not compiler reordering assembly instruction such that multiple original
source code lines are in effect.
It becomes more obvious what's going on if we look at *full* original line info
information (using btfdump for this, [0]):
#2764: line: insn #5363 --> 394:3 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c
for (int i = 0; i < STROBE_MAX_MAP_ENTRIES; ++i) {
#2765: line: insn #5373 --> 394:21 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c
for (int i = 0; i < STROBE_MAX_MAP_ENTRIES; ++i) {
#2766: line: insn #5375 --> 394:47 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c

#2768: line: insn #5378 --> 414:10 @ ./././strobemeta_probe.bpf.c
return off;
We can see that there are four line info records covering
instructions #5363 through #5377 (instruction indices are shifted due to
subprog instruction being appended to main program), all of them are
pointing to the same C source code line #394. But each of them points to
a different part of that line, which is denoted by differing column
numbers (3, 21, 47, 3).
But verifier log doesn't distinguish between parts of the same source code line
and doesn't emit this column number information, so for end user it's just a
repetitive visual noise. So let's improve the detection of repeated source code
line and avoid this.
With the changes in this patch, we get this output for the same piece of BPF
program log:

Verifier log avoids printing the same source code line multiple times
when a consecutive block of BPF assembly instructions are covered by the
same original (C) source code line. This greatly improves verifier log
legibility.
Unfortunately, this check is imperfect and in production applications it
quite often happens that verifier log will have multiple duplicated
source lines emitted, for no apparently good reason. E.g., this is
excerpt from a real-world BPF application (with register states omitted
for clarity):
