Dear Maintainers,

I would like to provide some additional background for this patchset.

We observed a high-probability crash on an Android device running a
6.1.145-based kernel when recording preemptirq tracepoints for a user
space process with dwarf callchains enabled.

The command used to reproduce the issue is:

   simpleperf record -p <PID> -f 10000 \
     -e preemptirq:preempt_disable \
     -e preemptirq:preempt_enable \
     --duration 9 --call-graph dwarf \
     -o /data/local/tmp/perf.data

Here <PID> is the PID of a user space process, for example a foreground
application UI thread or RenderThread.

One important observation is that the crash does not reproduce if
"--call-graph dwarf" is removed.

The crash log shows a data abort on a user virtual address while the PC
is at a probed kernel instruction:

The instruction d4200080 is the kprobe BRK instruction. The stack also
shows that the fault happens while handling a kprobe debug exception, 
and the perf/trace path is entered from that window.

 From the fulldump analysis, the issue appears to be related to the arm64
kprobe single-step/reentry handling. While a kprobe is preparing or
executing its XOL single-step instruction, perf/trace code may run in 
the same window. With dwarf callchains enabled, this path may also 
access user memory and take a data abort. In addition, another kprobe 
may be hit while the first kprobe is still in KPROBE_HIT_SS state.

This matches the type of issue that was fixed on x86 by the following
commits:

   6381c24cd6d5 ("kprobes/x86: Fix page-fault handling logic")
   6a5022a56ac3 ("kprobes/x86: Allow to handle reentered kprobe on 
single-stepping")

This patchset applies the same idea to arm64:

   - Patch 1 makes the arm64 kprobe fault handler handle a fault in
     KPROBE_HIT_SS/KPROBE_REENTER only when the faulting PC is the current
     kprobe's XOL instruction. Otherwise, the fault is left to the normal
     fault handling path.

   - Patch 2 allows a kprobe hit in KPROBE_HIT_SS to be handled as a
     recoverable one-level reentry. The unrecoverable case remains a hit
     while already in KPROBE_REENTER.

With both patches applied, we have kept the same stress test running for
three days and the crash is no longer reproduced.

I still have the full dmesg and fulldump from the crash device. Please
let me know if any additional information would be useful.

Thanks,
hupu
