user_enable/disable_single_step() was designed for ptrace, it assumes a single user and does unnecessary and wrong things for uprobes. For example: - arch_uprobe_enable_step() can't trust TIF_SINGLESTEP, an application itself can set X86_EFLAGS_TF which must be preserved after arch_uprobe_disable_step(). - we do not want to set TIF_SINGLESTEP/TIF_FORCED_TF in arch_uprobe_enable_step(), this only makes sense for ptrace. - otoh we leak TIF_SINGLESTEP if arch_uprobe_disable_step() doesn't do user_disable_single_step(), the application will be killed after the next syscall. - arch_uprobe_enable_step() does access_process_vm() we do not need/want. Change arch_uprobe_enable/disable_step() to set/clear X86_EFLAGS_TF directly, this is much simpler and more correct. However, we need to clear TIF_BLOCKSTEP/DEBUGCTLMSR_BTF before executing the probed insn, add set_task_blockstep(false). Note: with or without this patch, there is another (hopefully minor) problem. A probed "pushf" insn can see the wrong X86_EFLAGS_TF set by uprobes. Perhaps we should change _disable to update the stack, or teach arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() to emulate this insn.
