After copy_optimized_instructions() copies several instructions
to the working buffer it tries to fix up the real RIP address, but it
adjusts the RIP-relative instruction with an incorrect RIP address
for the 2nd and subsequent instructions due to a bug in the logic.
This will break the kernel pretty badly (with likely outcomes such as
a kernel freeze, a crash, or worse) because probed instructions can refer
to the wrong data.
For example putting kprobes on cpumask_next() typically hits this bug.
cpumask_next() is normally like below if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y
(in this case nr_cpumask_bits is an alias of nr_cpu_ids):
<cpumask_next>:
48 89 f0 mov %rsi,%rax
8b 35 7b fb e2 00 mov 0xe2fb7b(%rip),%esi # ffffffff82db9e64 <nr_cpu_ids>
55 push %rbp
...
If we put a kprobe on it and it gets jump-optimized, it gets
patched by the kprobes code like this:
<cpumask_next>:
e9 95 7d 07 1e jmpq 0xffffffffa000207a
7b fb jnp 0xffffffff81f8a2e2 <cpumask_next+2>
e2 00 loop 0xffffffff81f8a2e9 <cpumask_next+9>
55 push %rbp
This shows that the first two MOV instructions were copied to a
trampoline buffer at 0xffffffffa000207a.
Here is the disassembled result of the trampoline, skipping
the optprobe template instructions:
# Dump of assembly code from 0xffffffffa000207a to 0xffffffffa00020ea:
54 push %rsp
...
48 83 c4 08 add $0x8,%rsp
9d popfq
48 89 f0 mov %rsi,%rax
8b 35 82 7d db e2 mov -0x1d24827e(%rip),%esi # 0xffffffff82db9e67 <nr_cpu_ids+3>
This dump shows that the second MOV accesses *(nr_cpu_ids+3) instead of
the original *nr_cpu_ids. This leads to a kernel freeze because
cpumask_next() always returns 0 and for_each_cpu() never ends.
Fix this by adding 'len' correctly to the real RIP address while
copying.
