However, if the path contains a ':' character, then the function would parse the path incorrectly. Even worse, if the path does not exist, the subsequent call to `kern_path()` would set `ret` to `ENOENT`, leading to very cryptic errno values in user space. The fix is to find the *last* occurence of ':'. How to repro:: The write fails with "No such file or directory", suggesting incorrectly that the `uprobe_events` file does not exist. $ mkdir testing && cd testing $ cp /bin/bash . $ cp /bin/bash ./bash:with:colon $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x6" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this works $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x6" >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this doesn't -bash: echo: write error: No such file or directory With the patch: $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x6" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this still works $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x6" >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this works now too! $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x0000000000000006 p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x0000000000000006 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170113165834.4081016-1-kennyyu@fb.com Signed-off-by: Kenny Yu Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) --- diff --git a/kernel/trace/trace_uprobe.c b/kernel/trace/trace_uprobe.c index 0913693caf6e..4f2ba2bb11e0 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/trace_uprobe.c +++ b/kernel/trace/trace_uprobe.c @@ -431,7 +431,8 @@ static int create_trace_uprobe(int argc, char **argv) pr_info("Probe point is not specified.\n"); return -EINVAL; } - arg = strchr(argv[1], ':'); + /* Find the last occurrence, in case the path contains ':' too. */ + arg = strrchr(argv[1], ':'); if (!arg) { ret = -EINVAL; goto fail_address_parse;
