tracing: Have trace_event_file have ref counters
The following can crash the kernel:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 'p:sched schedule' > kprobe_events
# exec 5>>events/kprobes/sched/enable
# > kprobe_events
# exec 5>&-
The above commands:
1. Change directory to the tracefs directory
2. Create a kprobe event (doesn't matter what one)
3. Open bash file descriptor 5 on the enable file of the kprobe event
4. Delete the kprobe event (removes the files too)
5. Close the bash file descriptor 5
The above causes a crash!

Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.2-debian-1.16.2-1 04/01/2014
RIP: 0010:tracing_release_file_tr+0xc/0x50
What happens here is that the kprobe event creates a trace_event_file
"file" descriptor that represents the file in tracefs to the event. It
maintains state of the event (is it enabled for the given instance?).
Opening the "enable" file gets a reference to the event "file" descriptor
via the open file descriptor. When the kprobe event is deleted, the file is
also deleted from the tracefs system which also frees the event "file"
descriptor.
But as the tracefs file is still opened by user space, it will not be
totally removed until the final dput() is called on it. But this is not
true with the event "file" descriptor that is already freed. If the user
does a write to or simply closes the file descriptor it will reference the
event "file" descriptor that was just freed, causing a use-after-free bug.
To solve this, add a ref count to the event "file" descriptor as well as a
new flag called "FREED". The "file" will not be freed until the last
reference is released. But the FREE flag will be set when the event is
removed to prevent any more modifications to that event from happening,
even if there's still a reference to the event "file" descriptor.

tracing: Fix a NULL vs IS_ERR() bug in event_subsystem_dir()
The eventfs_create_dir() function returns error pointers, it never returns
NULL. Update the check to reflect that.

eventfs: Use eventfs_remove_events_dir()
The update to removing the eventfs_file changed the way the events top
level directory was handled. Instead of returning a dentry, it now returns
the eventfs_inode. In this changed, the removing of the events top level
directory is not much different than removing any of the other
directories. Because of this, the removal just called eventfs_remove_dir()
instead of eventfs_remove_events_dir().
Although eventfs_remove_dir() does the clean up, it misses out on the
dget() of the ei->dentry done in eventfs_create_events_dir(). It makes
more sense to match eventfs_create_events_dir() with a specific function
eventfs_remove_events_dir() and this specific function can then perform
the dput() to the dentry that had the dget() when it was created.

eventfs: Remove eventfs_file and just use eventfs_inode
Instead of having a descriptor for every file represented in the eventfs directory, only have the directory itself represented. Change the API to send in a list of entries that represent all the files in the directory (but not other directories). The entry list contains a name and a callback function that will be used to create the files when they are accessed. struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_events_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent, const struct eventfs_entry *entries, int size, void *data); is used for the top level eventfs directory, and returns an eventfs_inode that will be used by: struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct eventfs_inode *parent, const struct eventfs_entry *entries, int size, void *data); where both of the above take an array of struct eventfs_entry entries for every file that is in the directory. The entries are defined by: typedef int (*eventfs_callback)(const char *name, umode_t *mode, void **data, const struct file_operations **fops); struct eventfs_entry { const char *name; eventfs_callback callback; }; Where the name is the name of the file and the callback gets called when the file is being created. The callback passes in the name (in case the same callback is used for multiple files), a pointer to the mode, data and fops. The data will be pointing to the data that was passed in eventfs_create_dir() or eventfs_create_events_dir() but may be overridden to point to something else, as it will be used to point to the inode->i_private that is created. The information passed back from the callback is used to create the dentry/inode. If the callback fills the data and the file should be created, it must return a positive number. On zero or negative, the file is ignored. This logic may also be used as a prototype to convert entire pseudo file systems into just-in-time allocation. The "show_events_dentry" file has been updated to show the directories, and any files they have.

tracing: Expand all ring buffers individually
The ring buffer of global_trace is set to the minimum size in order to save memory on boot up and then it will be expand when some trace feature enabled. However currently operations under an instance can also cause global_trace ring buffer being expanded, and the expanded memory would be wasted if global_trace then not being used. See following case, we enable 'sched_switch' event in instance 'A', then ring buffer of global_trace is unexpectedly expanded to be 1410KB, also the '(expanded: 1408)' from 'buffer_size_kb' of instance is confusing. # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # mkdir instances/A # cat buffer_size_kb 7 (expanded: 1408) # cat instances/A/buffer_size_kb 1410 (expanded: 1408) # echo sched:sched_switch > instances/A/set_event # cat buffer_size_kb 1410 # cat instances/A/buffer_size_kb 1410 To fix it, we can: - Make 'ring_buffer_expanded' as a member of 'struct trace_array'; - Make 'ring_buffer_expanded' of instance is defaultly true, global_trace is defaultly false; - In order not to expose 'global_trace' outside of file 'kernel/trace/trace.c', introduce trace_set_ring_buffer_expanded() to set 'ring_buffer_expanded' as 'true'; - Pass the expected trace_array to tracing_update_buffers().

tracing: relax trace_event_eval_update() execution with cond_resched()
When kernel is compiled without preemption, the eval_map_work_func() (which calls trace_event_eval_update()) will not be preempted up to its complete execution. This can actually cause a problem since if another CPU call stop_machine(), the call will have to wait for the eval_map_work_func() function to finish executing in the workqueue before being able to be scheduled. This problem was observe on a SMP system at boot time, when the CPU calling the initcalls executed clocksource_done_booting() which in the end calls stop_machine(). We observed a 1 second delay because one CPU was executing eval_map_work_func() and was not preempted by the stop_machine() task. Adding a call to cond_resched() in trace_event_eval_update() allows other tasks to be executed and thus continue working asynchronously like before without blocking any pending task at boot time.

eventfs: Fix the NULL pointer dereference bug in eventfs_remove_rec()
Inject fault while probing btrfs.ko, if kstrdup() fails in
eventfs_prepare_ef() in eventfs_add_dir(), it will return ERR_PTR
to assign file->ef. But the eventfs_remove() check NULL in
trace_module_remove_events(), which causes the below NULL
pointer dereference.
As both Masami and Steven suggest, allocater side should handle the
error carefully and remove it, so fix the places where it failed.

eventfs: Move tracing/events to eventfs
Up until now, /sys/kernel/tracing/events was no different than any other part of tracefs. The files and directories within the events directory was created when the tracefs was mounted, and also created for the instances in /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/<instance>/events. Most of these files and directories will never be referenced. Since there are thousands of these files and directories they spend their time wasting precious memory resources. Move the "events" directory to the new eventfs. The eventfs will take the meta data of the events that they represent and store that. When the files in the events directory are referenced, the dentry and inodes to represent them are then created. When the files are no longer referenced, they are freed. This saves the precious memory resources that were wasted on these seldom referenced dentries and inodes. Running the following: ~# cat /proc/meminfo /proc/slabinfo > before.out ~# mkdir /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/foo ~# cat /proc/meminfo /proc/slabinfo > after.out to test the changes produces the following deltas: Before this change: Before after deltas for meminfo: MemFree: -32260 MemAvailable: -21496 KReclaimable: 21528 Slab: 22440 SReclaimable: 21528 SUnreclaim: 912 VmallocUsed: 16 Before after deltas for slabinfo: <slab>: <objects> [ * <size> = <total>] tracefs_inode_cache: 14472 [* 1184 = 17134848] buffer_head: 24 [* 168 = 4032] hmem_inode_cache: 28 [* 1480 = 41440] dentry: 14450 [* 312 = 4508400] lsm_inode_cache: 14453 [* 32 = 462496] vma_lock: 11 [* 152 = 1672] vm_area_struct: 2 [* 184 = 368] trace_event_file: 1748 [* 88 = 153824] kmalloc-256: 1072 [* 256 = 274432] kmalloc-64: 2842 [* 64 = 181888] Total slab additions in size: 22,763,400 bytes With this change: Before after deltas for meminfo: MemFree: -12600 MemAvailable: -12580 Cached: 24 Active: 12 Inactive: 68 Inactive(anon): 48 Active(file): 12 Inactive(file): 20 Dirty: -4 AnonPages: 68 KReclaimable: 12 Slab: 1856 SReclaimable: 12 SUnreclaim: 1844 KernelStack: 16 PageTables: 36 VmallocUsed: 16 Before after deltas for slabinfo: <slab>: <objects> [ * <size> = <total>] tracefs_inode_cache: 108 [* 1184 = 127872] buffer_head: 24 [* 168 = 4032] hmem_inode_cache: 18 [* 1480 = 26640] dentry: 127 [* 312 = 39624] lsm_inode_cache: 152 [* 32 = 4864] vma_lock: 67 [* 152 = 10184] vm_area_struct: -12 [* 184 = -2208] trace_event_file: 1764 [* 96 = 169344] kmalloc-96: 14322 [* 96 = 1374912] kmalloc-64: 2814 [* 64 = 180096] kmalloc-32: 1103 [* 32 = 35296] kmalloc-16: 2308 [* 16 = 36928] kmalloc-8: 12800 [* 8 = 102400] Total slab additions in size: 2,109,984 bytes Which is a savings of 20,653,416 bytes (20 MB) per tracing instance.

tracing: Require all trace events to have a TRACE_SYSTEM
The creation of the trace event directory requires that a TRACE_SYSTEM is defined that the trace event directory is added within the system it was defined in. The code handled the case where a TRACE_SYSTEM was not added, and would then add the event at the events directory. But nothing should be doing this. This code also prevents the implementation of creating dynamic dentrys for the eventfs system. As this path has never been hit on correct code, remove it. If it does get hit, issues a WARN_ON_ONCE() and return ENODEV.

The cause of the warning is in __ftrace_event_enable_disable(),
trace_buffered_event_enable() was called once while
trace_buffered_event_disable() was called twice.
Reproduction script show as below, for analysis, see the comments:
```
#!/bin/bash
cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# 1. Register a 'disable_event' command, then:
# 1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was set;
# 2) trace_buffered_event_enable() was called first time;
echo 'cmdline_proc_show:disable_event:initcall:initcall_finish' > \
set_ftrace_filter
# 2. Enable the event registered, then:
# 1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was cleared;
# 2) trace_buffered_event_disable() was called first time;
echo 1 > events/initcall/initcall_finish/enable
# 3. Try to call into cmdline_proc_show(), then SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was
# set again!!!
cat /proc/cmdline
# 4. Unregister the 'disable_event' command, then:
# 1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was cleared again;
# 2) trace_buffered_event_disable() was called second time!!!
echo '!cmdline_proc_show:disable_event:initcall:initcall_finish' > \
set_ftrace_filter
```
To fix it, IIUC, we can change to call trace_buffered_event_enable() at
fist time soft-mode enabled, and call trace_buffered_event_disable() at
last time soft-mode disabled.

tracing: Replace all non-returning strlcpy with strscpy
strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1]. In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace strlcpy() here with strscpy(). No return values were used, so direct replacement with strlcpy is safe.

tracing: Rename stacktrace field to common_stacktrace
The histogram and synthetic events can use a pseudo event called "stacktrace" that will create a stacktrace at the time of the event and use it just like it was a normal field. We have other pseudo events such as "common_cpu" and "common_timestamp". To stay consistent with that, convert "stacktrace" to "common_stacktrace". As this was used in older kernels, to keep backward compatibility, this will act just like "common_cpu" did with "cpu". That is, "cpu" will be the same as "common_cpu" unless the event has a "cpu" field. In which case, the event's field is used. The same is true with "stacktrace". Also update the documentation to reflect this change.

tracing: Add a way to filter function addresses to function names
There's been several times where an event records a function address in its field and I needed to filter on that address for a specific function name. It required looking up the function in kallsyms, finding its size, and doing a compare of "field >= function_start && field < function_end". But this would change from boot to boot and is unreliable in scripts. Also, it is useful to have this at boot up, where the addresses will not be known. For example, on the boot command line: trace_trigger="initcall_finish.traceoff if func.function == acpi_init" To implement this, add a ".function" prefix, that will check that the field is of size long, and the only operations allowed (so far) are "==" and "!=".

tracing: Add trace_trigger kernel command line option
Allow triggers to be enabled at kernel boot up. For example: trace_trigger="sched_switch.stacktrace if prev_state == 2" The above will enable the stacktrace trigger on top of the sched_switch event and only trigger if its prev_state is 2 (TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE). Then at boot up, a stacktrace will trigger and be recorded in the tracing ring buffer every time the sched_switch happens where the previous state is TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. Another useful trigger would be "traceoff" which can stop tracing on an event if a field of the event matches a certain value defined by the filter ("if" statement).

tracing: Free buffers when a used dynamic event is removed
After 65536 dynamic events have been added and removed, the "type" field of the event then uses the first type number that is available (not currently used by other events). A type number is the identifier of the binary blobs in the tracing ring buffer (known as events) to map them to logic that can parse the binary blob. The issue is that if a dynamic event (like a kprobe event) is traced and is in the ring buffer, and then that event is removed (because it is dynamic, which means it can be created and destroyed), if another dynamic event is created that has the same number that new event's logic on parsing the binary blob will be used. To show how this can be an issue, the following can crash the kernel: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # for i in `seq 65536`; do echo 'p:kprobes/foo do_sys_openat2 $arg1:u32' > kprobe_events # done For every iteration of the above, the writing to the kprobe_events will remove the old event and create a new one (with the same format) and increase the type number to the next available on until the type number reaches over 65535 which is the max number for the 16 bit type. After it reaches that number, the logic to allocate a new number simply looks for the next available number. When an dynamic event is removed, that number is then available to be reused by the next dynamic event created. That is, once the above reaches the max number, the number assigned to the event in that loop will remain the same. Now that means deleting one dynamic event and created another will reuse the previous events type number. This is where bad things can happen. After the above loop finishes, the kprobes/foo event which reads the do_sys_openat2 function call's first parameter as an integer. # echo 1 > kprobes/foo/enable # cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null # cat trace cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849603: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849620: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849838: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849880: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 # echo 0 > kprobes/foo/enable Now if we delete the kprobe and create a new one that reads a string: # echo 'p:kprobes/foo do_sys_openat2 +0($arg2):string' > kprobe_events And now we can the trace: # cat trace sendmail-1942 [002] ..... 530.136320: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1= cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.930817: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.930961: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.934278: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.934563: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" bash-1515 [007] ..... 534.299093: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk���������@��4Z����;Y�����U And dmesg has: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in string+0xd4/0x1c0 Read of size 1 at addr ffff88805fdbbfa0 by task cat/2049 CPU: 0 PID: 2049 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.1.0-rc6-test+ #641 Hardware name: Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF/339A, BIOS K01 v03.03 07/14/2016 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x5b/0x77 print_report+0x17f/0x47b kasan_report+0xad/0x130 string+0xd4/0x1c0 vsnprintf+0x500/0x840 seq_buf_vprintf+0x62/0xc0 trace_seq_printf+0x10e/0x1e0 print_type_string+0x90/0xa0 print_kprobe_event+0x16b/0x290 print_trace_line+0x451/0x8e0 s_show+0x72/0x1f0 seq_read_iter+0x58e/0x750 seq_read+0x115/0x160 vfs_read+0x11d/0x460 ksys_read+0xa9/0x130 do_syscall_64+0x3a/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd RIP: 0033:0x7fc2e972ade2 Code: c0 e9 b2 fe ff ff 50 48 8d 3d b2 3f 0a 00 e8 05 f0 01 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 f3 0f 1e fa 64 8b 04 25 18 00 00 00 85 c0 75 10 0f 05 <48> 3d 00 f0 ff ff 77 56 c3 0f 1f 44 00 00 48 83 ec 28 48 89 54 24 RSP: 002b:00007ffc64e687c8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000000 RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000000000020000 RCX: 00007fc2e972ade2 RDX: 0000000000020000 RSI: 00007fc2e980d000 RDI: 0000000000000003 RBP: 00007fc2e980d000 R08: 00007fc2e980c010 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000022 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000000000020f00 R13: 0000000000000003 R14: 0000000000020000 R15: 0000000000020000 </TASK> The buggy address belongs to the physical page: page:ffffea00017f6ec0 refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x5fdbb flags: 0xfffffc0000000(node=0|zone=1|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) raw: 000fffffc0000000 0000000000000000 ffffea00017f6ec8 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected Memory state around the buggy address: ffff88805fdbbe80: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff88805fdbbf00: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff >ffff88805fdbbf80: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ^ ffff88805fdbc000: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff88805fdbc080: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ================================================================== This was found when Zheng Yejian sent a patch to convert the event type number assignment to use IDA, which gives the next available number, and this bug showed up in the fuzz testing by Yujie Liu and the kernel test robot. But after further analysis, I found that this behavior is the same as when the event type numbers go past the 16bit max (and the above shows that). As modules have a similar issue, but is dealt with by setting a "WAS_ENABLED" flag when a module event is enabled, and when the module is freed, if any of its events were enabled, the ring buffer that holds that event is also cleared, to prevent reading stale events. The same can be done for dynamic events. If any dynamic event that is being removed was enabled, then make sure the buffers they were enabled in are now cleared.

tracing: Add tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() function
Currently the tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() requires the trace_types_lock held. But only one caller of this function actually has that lock held before calling it, and the other just takes the lock so that it can call it. More users of this function is needed where the lock is not held. Add a tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() function for the one use case that calls it without being held, and also add a lockdep_assert to make sure it is held when called. Then have tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() take the lock internally, such that callers do not need to worry about taking it.

tracing: Have event format check not flag %p* on __get_dynamic_array()
The print fmt check against trace events to make sure that the format does
not use pointers that may be freed from the time of the trace to the time
the event is read, gives a false positive on %pISpc when reading data that
was saved in __get_dynamic_array() when it is perfectly fine to do so, as
the data being read is on the ring buffer.

tracing: Remove check of list iterator against head past the loop body
When list_for_each_entry() completes the iteration over the whole list without breaking the loop, the iterator value will be a bogus pointer computed based on the head element. While it is safe to use the pointer to determine if it was computed based on the head element, either with list_entry_is_head() or &pos->member == head, using the iterator variable after the loop should be avoided. In preparation to limit the scope of a list iterator to the list traversal loop, use a dedicated pointer to point to the found element [1].

Tracing updates for 5.18:
- New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task can then enable that event like any other event, which will change the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start writing the event to the tracing buffer. - Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot up has tracing as well. - Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum, the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that array. - Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports. - Fixes to tracing error logging. - Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events for mapping). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCYjiO3RQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qhQzAQDtek5p80p/zkMGymm14wSH6qq0NdgN Kv7fTBwEewUa0gD/UCOVLw4Oj+JtHQhCa3sCGZopmRv0BT1+4UQANqosKQY= =Au08 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - New user_events interface.

tracing: Have type enum modifications copy the strings
When an enum is used in the visible parts of a trace event that is
exported to user space, the user space applications like perf and
trace-cmd do not have a way to know what the value of the enum is. To
solve this, at boot up (or module load) the printk formats are modified to
replace the enum with their numeric value in the string output.
Array fields of the event are defined by [<nr-elements>] in the type
portion of the format file so that the user space parsers can correctly
parse the array into the appropriate size chunks. But in some trace
events, an enum is used in defining the size of the array, which once
again breaks the parsing of user space tooling.
This was solved the same way as the print formats were, but it modified
the type strings of the trace event. This caused crashes in some
architectures because, as supposed to the print string, is a const string
value. This was not detected on x86, as it appears that const strings are
still writable (at least in boot up), but other architectures this is not
the case, and writing to a const string will cause a kernel fault.
To fix this, use kstrdup() to copy the type before modifying it. If the
trace event is for the core kernel there's no need to free it because the
string will be in use for the life of the machine being on line. For
modules, create a link list to store all the strings being allocated for
modules and when the module is removed, free them.

tracing: Have TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM affect trace event types as well
The macro TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM is used to convert enums in the kernel to their actual value when they are exported to user space via the trace event format file. Currently only the enums in the "print fmt" (TP_printk in the TRACE_EVENT macro) have the enums converted. But the enums can be used to denote array size: field:unsigned int fc_ineligible_rc[EXT4_FC_REASON_MAX]; offset:12; size:36; signed:0; The EXT4_FC_REASON_MAX has no meaning to userspace but it needs to know that information to know how to parse the array. Have the array indexes also be parsed as well.

tracing: Update print fmt check to handle new __get_sockaddr() macro
A helper macro was added to make reading socket addresses easier in trace events. It pairs %pISpc with __get_sockaddr() that reads the socket address from the ring buffer into a human readable format. The boot up check that makes sure that trace events do not reference pointers to memory that can later be freed when the trace event is read, incorrectly flagged this as a delayed reference. Update the check to handle "__get_sockaddr" and not report an error on it.

tracing: Test the 'Do not trace this pid' case in create event
When creating a new event (via a module, kprobe, eprobe, etc), the
descriptors that are created must add flags for pid filtering if an
instance has pid filtering enabled, as the flags are used at the time the
event is executed to know if pid filtering should be done or not.
The "Only trace this pid" case was added, but a cut and paste error made
that case checked twice, instead of checking the "Trace all but this pid"
case.

tracing: Disable "other" permission bits in the tracefs files
When building the files in the tracefs file system, do not by default set any permissions for OTH (other). This will make it easier for admins who want to define a group for accessing tracefs and not having to first disable all the permission bits for "other" in the file system. As tracing can leak sensitive information, it should never by default allowing all users access. An admin can still set the permission bits for others to have access, which may be useful for creating a honeypot and seeing who takes advantage of it and roots the machine.

tracing: Place trace_pid_list logic into abstract functions
Instead of having the logic that does trace_pid_list open coded, wrap it in abstract functions. This will allow a rewrite of the logic that implements the trace_pid_list without affecting the users. Note, this causes a change in behavior. Every time a pid is written into the set_*_pid file, it creates a new list and uses RCU to update it. If pid_max is lowered, but there was a pid currently in the list that was higher than pid_max, those pids will now be removed on updating the list. The old behavior kept that from happening. The rewrite of the pid_list logic will no longer depend on pid_max, and will return the old behavior. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org> |

tracing: Add migrate-disabled counter to tracing output.
migrate_disable() forbids task migration to another CPU. It is available since v5.11 and has already users such as highmem or BPF. It is useful to observe this task state in tracing which already has other states like the preemption counter. Instead of adding the migrate disable counter as a new entry to struct trace_entry, which would extend the whole struct by four bytes, it is squashed into the preempt-disable counter. The lower four bits represent the preemption counter, the upper four bits represent the migrate disable counter. Both counter shouldn't exceed 15 but if they do, there is a safety net which caps the value at 15. Add the migrate-disable counter to the trace entry so it shows up in the trace. Due to the users mentioned above, it is already possible to observe it: | bash-1108 [000] ...21 73.950578: rss_stat: mm_id=2213312838 curr=0 type=MM_ANONPAGES size=8192B | bash-1108 [000] d..31 73.951222: irq_disable: caller=flush_tlb_mm_range+0x115/0x130 parent=ptep_clear_flush+0x42/0x50 | bash-1108 [000] d..31 73.951222: tlb_flush: pages:1 reason:local mm shootdown (3) The last value is the migrate-disable counter. Things that popped up: - trace_print_lat_context() does not print the migrate counter. Not sure if it should. It is used in "verbose" mode and uses 8 digits and I'm not sure ther is something processing the value. - trace_define_common_fields() now defines a different variable. This probably breaks things. No ide what to do in order to preserve the old behaviour. Since this is used as a filter it should be split somehow to be able to match both nibbles here.

tracing: Add check of trace event print fmts for dereferencing pointers
Trace events record data into the ring buffer at the time of the event. The trace event has a printf logic to display the recorded data at a much later time when the user reads the trace file. This makes using dereferencing pointers unsafe if the dereferenced pointer points to the original source. The safe way to handle this is to create an array within the trace event and copy the source into the array. Then the dereference pointer may point to that array. As this is a easy mistake to make, a check is added to examine all trace event print fmts to make sure that they are safe to use. This only checks the various %p* dereferenced pointers like %pB, %pR, etc. It does not handle dereferencing of strings, as there are some use cases that are OK to dereference the source. That will be dealt with differently. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org> |

Tracing updates for 5.12
- Update to the way irqs and preemption is tracked via the trace event PC field - Fix handling of unregistering event failing due to allocate memory. This is only triggered by failure injection, as it is pretty much guaranteed to have less than a page allocation succeed. - Do not show the useless "filter" or "enable" files for the "ftrace" trace system, as they have no effect on doing anything. - Add a warning if kprobes are registered more than once. - Synthetic events now have their fields parsed by semicolons. Old formats without semicolons will still work, but new features will require them. - New option to allow trace events to show %p without hashing in trace file. The trace file can only be read by root, and reading the raw event buffer did not have any pointers hashed, so this does not expose anything new. - New directory in tools called tools/tracing, where a new tool that reads sequential latency reports from the ftrace latency tracers. - Other minor fixes and cleanups. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCYDL2wBQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qti6AP0RUcSU5U1onx8DcwPQLC5Xr3CPqJkm RvKeJDdgFP+sVgEAiMTFsy2UMc0gmlHZMFd5nZLSiJCu1I2hHmhS5yKbHgY= =fD9+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Update to the way irqs and preemption is tracked via the trace event PC field - Fix handling of unregistering event failing due to allocate memory.
