rv: Add Runtime Verification (RV) interface
RV is a lightweight (yet rigorous) method that complements classical
exhaustive verification techniques (such as model checking and
theorem proving) with a more practical approach to complex systems.
RV works by analyzing the trace of the system's actual execution,
comparing it against a formal specification of the system behavior.
RV can give precise information on the runtime behavior of the
monitored system while enabling the reaction for unexpected
events, avoiding, for example, the propagation of a failure on
safety-critical systems.
The development of this interface roots in the development of the
paper:
De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot; Cucinotta, Tommaso; De Oliveira, Romulo
Silva. Efficient formal verification for the Linux kernel. In:
International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods.
Springer, Cham, 2019. p. 315-332.
And:
De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot. Automata-based formal analysis
and verification of the real-time Linux kernel. PhD Thesis, 2020.
The RV interface resembles the tracing/ interface on purpose. The current
path for the RV interface is /sys/kernel/tracing/rv/.
It presents these files:
"available_monitors"
- List the available monitors, one per line.
For example:
# cat available_monitors
wip
wwnr
"enabled_monitors"
- Lists the enabled monitors, one per line;
- Writing to it enables a given monitor;
- Writing a monitor name with a '!' prefix disables it;
- Truncating the file disables all enabled monitors.
For example:
# cat enabled_monitors
# echo wip > enabled_monitors
# echo wwnr >> enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
wip
wwnr
# echo '!wip' >> enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
wwnr
# echo > enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
#
Note that more than one monitor can be enabled concurrently.
"monitoring_on"
- It is an on/off general switcher for monitoring. Note
that it does not disable enabled monitors or detach events,
but stop the per-entity monitors of monitoring the events
received from the system. It resembles the "tracing_on" switcher.
"monitors/"
Each monitor will have its one directory inside "monitors/". There
the monitor specific files will be presented.
The "monitors/" directory resembles the "events" directory on
tracefs.
For example:
# cd monitors/wip/
# ls
desc enable
# cat desc
wakeup in preemptive per-cpu testing monitor.
# cat enable
0
For further information, see the comments in the header of
kernel/trace/rv/rv.c from this patch.

Networking changes for 5.18.
Core
----
- Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with
jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).
- Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
to complete out of order.
- Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).
- Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout
the stack.
- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
allocated per-CPU counters.
- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
BPF
---
- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower
iTLB pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from
getting split.
- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop
the user-mode-driver dependency.
- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
its use as a packet generator.
- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if called
from a hook allowed to sleep.
- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
bits to come later).
- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
kfunc infra.
- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
without BTF info.
- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
Protocols
---------
- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.
- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
behavior.
- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
doubling the performance in some scenarios.
- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
- SMC
- improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
- support auto-corking
- support TCP_NODELAY
- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
- add user space tag control interface
- I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
- Bluetooth:
- handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
- add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
- Multi-Path TCP:
- add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
- lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
Driver API
----------
- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
software interfaces such as tunnels.
- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling
of TCP zero-copy Rx.
- Allow configuring completion queue event size.
- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
- replay and offload of host VLAN entries
- offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
- FDB isolation and unicast filtering

rethook: Add a generic return hook
Add a return hook framework which hooks the function return. Most of the logic came from the kretprobe, but this is independent from kretprobe. Note that this is expected to be used with other function entry hooking feature, like ftrace, fprobe, adn kprobes. Eventually this will replace the kretprobe (e.g. kprobe + rethook = kretprobe), but at this moment, this is just an additional hook.

fprobe: Add ftrace based probe APIs
The fprobe is a wrapper API for ftrace function tracer.
Unlike kprobes, this probes only supports the function entry, but this
can probe multiple functions by one fprobe. The usage is similar, user
will set their callback to fprobe::entry_handler and call
register_fprobe*() with probed functions.
There are 3 registration interfaces,
- register_fprobe() takes filtering patterns of the functin names.
- register_fprobe_ips() takes an array of ftrace-location addresses.
- register_fprobe_syms() takes an array of function names.
The registered fprobes can be unregistered with unregister_fprobe().
e.g.
struct fprobe fp = { .entry_handler = user_handler };
const char *targets[] = { "func1", "func2", "func3"};
...
ret = register_fprobe_syms(&fp, targets, ARRAY_SIZE(targets));
...
unregister_fprobe(&fp);

user_events: Add minimal support for trace_event into ftrace
Minimal support for interacting with dynamic events, trace_event and
ftrace. Core outline of flow between user process, ioctl and trace_event
APIs.
User mode processes that wish to use trace events to get data into
ftrace, perf, eBPF, etc are limited to uprobes today. The user events
features enables an ABI for user mode processes to create and write to
trace events that are isolated from kernel level trace events. This
enables a faster path for tracing from user mode data as well as opens
managed code to participate in trace events, where stub locations are
dynamic.
User processes often want to trace only when it's useful. To enable this
a set of pages are mapped into the user process space that indicate the
current state of the user events that have been registered. User
processes can check if their event is hooked to a trace/probe, and if it
is, emit the event data out via the write() syscall.
Two new files are introduced into tracefs to accomplish this:
user_events_status - This file is mmap'd into participating user mode
processes to indicate event status.
user_events_data - This file is opened and register/delete ioctl's are
issued to create/open/delete trace events that can be used for tracing.
The typical scenario is on process start to mmap user_events_status. Processes
then register the events they plan to use via the REG ioctl. The ioctl reads
and updates the passed in user_reg struct. The status_index of the struct is
used to know the byte in the status page to check for that event. The
write_index of the struct is used to describe that event when writing out to
the fd that was used for the ioctl call. The data must always include this
index first when writing out data for an event. Data can be written either by
write() or by writev().
For example, in memory:
int index;
char data[];
Psuedo code example of typical usage:
struct user_reg reg;
int page_fd = open("user_events_status", O_RDWR);
char *page_data = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, page_fd, 0);
close(page_fd);
int data_fd = open("user_events_data", O_RDWR);
reg.size = sizeof(reg);
reg.name_args = (__u64)"test";
ioctl(data_fd, DIAG_IOCSREG, ®);
int status_id = reg.status_index;
int write_id = reg.write_index;
struct iovec io[2];
io[0].iov_base = &write_id;
io[0].iov_len = sizeof(write_id);
io[1].iov_base = payload;
io[1].iov_len = sizeof(payload);
if (page_data[status_id])
writev(data_fd, io, 2);
User events are also exposed via the dynamic_events tracefs file for
both create and delete. Current status is exposed via the user_events_status
tracefs file.
Simple example to register a user event via dynamic_events:
echo u:test >> dynamic_events
cat dynamic_events
u:test
If an event is hooked to a probe, the probe hooked shows up:
echo 1 > events/user_events/test/enable
cat user_events_status
1:test # Used by ftrace
Active: 1
Busy: 1
Max: 4096
If an event is not hooked to a probe, no probe status shows up:
echo 0 > events/user_events/test/enable
cat user_events_status
1:test
Active: 1
Busy: 0
Max: 4096
Users can describe the trace event format via the following format:
name[:FLAG1[,FLAG2...] [field1[;field2...]]
Each field has the following format:
type name
Example for char array with a size of 20 named msg:
echo 'u:detailed char[20] msg' >> dynamic_events
cat dynamic_events
u:detailed char[20] msg
Data offsets are based on the data written out via write() and will be
updated to reflect the correct offset in the trace_event fields. For dynamic
data it is recommended to use the new __rel_loc data type. This type will be
the same as __data_loc, but the offset is relative to this entry. This allows
user_events to not worry about what common fields are being inserted before
the data.
The above format is valid for both the ioctl and the dynamic_events file.

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 a probe that attaches to trace events
A new dynamic event is introduced: event probe. The event is attached
to an existing tracepoint and uses its fields as arguments. The user
can specify custom format string of the new event, select what tracepoint
arguments will be printed and how to print them.
An event probe is created by writing configuration string in
'dynamic_events' ftrace file:
e[:[SNAME/]ENAME] SYSTEM/EVENT [FETCHARGS] - Set an event probe
-:SNAME/ENAME - Delete an event probe
Where:
SNAME - System name, if omitted 'eprobes' is used.
ENAME - Name of the new event in SNAME, if omitted the SYSTEM_EVENT is used.
SYSTEM - Name of the system, where the tracepoint is defined, mandatory.
EVENT - Name of the tracepoint event in SYSTEM, mandatory.
FETCHARGS - Arguments:
<name>=$<field>[:TYPE] - Fetch given filed of the tracepoint and print
it as given TYPE with given name. Supported
types are:
(u8/u16/u32/u64/s8/s16/s32/s64), basic type
(x8/x16/x32/x64), hexadecimal types
"string", "ustring" and bitfield.
Example, attach an event probe on openat system call and print name of the
file that will be opened:
echo "e:esys/eopen syscalls/sys_enter_openat file=\$filename:string" >> dynamic_events
A new dynamic event is created in events/esys/eopen/ directory. It
can be deleted with:
echo "-:esys/eopen" >> dynamic_events
Filters, triggers and histograms can be attached to the new event, it can
be matched in synthetic events. There is one limitation - an event probe
can not be attached to kprobe, uprobe or another event probe.

trace: Add osnoise tracer
In the context of high-performance computing (HPC), the Operating System
Noise (*osnoise*) refers to the interference experienced by an application
due to activities inside the operating system. In the context of Linux,
NMIs, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and any other system thread can cause noise to the
system. Moreover, hardware-related jobs can also cause noise, for example,
via SMIs.
The osnoise tracer leverages the hwlat_detector by running a similar
loop with preemption, SoftIRQs and IRQs enabled, thus allowing all
the sources of *osnoise* during its execution. Using the same approach
of hwlat, osnoise takes note of the entry and exit point of any
source of interferences, increasing a per-cpu interference counter. The
osnoise tracer also saves an interference counter for each source of
interference. The interference counter for NMI, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and
threads is increased anytime the tool observes these interferences' entry
events. When a noise happens without any interference from the operating
system level, the hardware noise counter increases, pointing to a
hardware-related noise. In this way, osnoise can account for any
source of interference. At the end of the period, the osnoise tracer
prints the sum of all noise, the max single noise, the percentage of CPU
available for the thread, and the counters for the noise sources.
Usage
Write the ASCII text "osnoise" into the current_tracer file of the
tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing).
For example::
[root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
[root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > current_tracer
It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file::
[root@f32 tracing]# cat trace
# tracer: osnoise
#
# _-----=> irqs-off
# / _----=> need-resched
# | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
# || / _--=> preempt-depth MAX
# || / SINGLE Interference counters:

# TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP IN US IN US AVAILABLE IN US HW NMI IRQ SIRQ THREAD
# | | | |||| | | | | | | | | | |

In addition to the regular trace fields (from TASK-PID to TIMESTAMP), the
tracer prints a message at the end of each period for each CPU that is
running an osnoise/CPU thread. The osnoise specific fields report:
- The RUNTIME IN USE reports the amount of time in microseconds that
the osnoise thread kept looping reading the time.
- The NOISE IN US reports the sum of noise in microseconds observed
by the osnoise tracer during the associated runtime.
- The % OF CPU AVAILABLE reports the percentage of CPU available for
the osnoise thread during the runtime window.
- The MAX SINGLE NOISE IN US reports the maximum single noise observed
during the runtime window.
- The Interference counters display how many each of the respective
interference happened during the runtime window.
Note that the example above shows a high number of HW noise samples.
The reason being is that this sample was taken on a virtual machine,
and the host interference is detected as a hardware interference.
Tracer options
The tracer has a set of options inside the osnoise directory, they are:
- osnoise/cpus: CPUs at which a osnoise thread will execute.
- osnoise/period_us: the period of the osnoise thread.
- osnoise/runtime_us: how long an osnoise thread will look for noise.
- osnoise/stop_tracing_us: stop the system tracing if a single noise
higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this
option.
- osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us: stop the system tracing if total noise
higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this
option.
- tracing_threshold: the minimum delta between two time() reads to be
considered as noise, in us. When set to 0, the default value will
be used, which is currently 5 us.
Additional Tracing
In addition to the tracer, a set of tracepoints were added to
facilitate the identification of the osnoise source.
- osnoise:sample_threshold: printed anytime a noise is higher than
the configurable tolerance_ns.
- osnoise:nmi_noise: noise from NMI, including the duration.
- osnoise:irq_noise: noise from an IRQ, including the duration.
- osnoise:softirq_noise: noise from a SoftIRQ, including the
duration.
- osnoise:thread_noise: noise from a thread, including the duration.
Note that all the values are *net values*. For example, if while osnoise
is running, another thread preempts the osnoise thread, it will start a
thread_noise duration at the start. Then, an IRQ takes place, preempting
the thread_noise, starting a irq_noise. When the IRQ ends its execution,
it will compute its duration, and this duration will be subtracted from
the thread_noise, in such a way as to avoid the double accounting of the
IRQ execution. This logic is valid for all sources of noise.
Here is one example of the usage of these tracepoints::
osnoise/8-961 [008] d.h. 5789.857532: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.857529929 duration 1845 ns
osnoise/8-961 [008] dNh. 5789.858408: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.858404871 duration 2848 ns
migration/8-54 [008] d... 5789.858413: thread_noise: migration/8:54 start 5789.858409300 duration 3068 ns
osnoise/8-961 [008] .... 5789.858413: sample_threshold: start 5789.858404555 duration 8723 ns interferences 2
In this example, a noise sample of 8 microseconds was reported in the last
line, pointing to two interferences. Looking backward in the trace, the
two previous entries were about the migration thread running after a
timer IRQ execution. The first event is not part of the noise because
it took place one millisecond before.
It is worth noticing that the sum of the duration reported in the
tracepoints is smaller than eight us reported in the sample_threshold.
The reason roots in the overhead of the entry and exit code that happens
before and after any interference execution. This justifies the dual
approach: measuring thread and tracing.

tracing: add error_report_end trace point
Patch series "Add error_report_end tracepoint to KFENCE and KASAN", v3. This patchset adds a tracepoint, error_repor_end, that is to be used by KFENCE, KASAN, and potentially other bug detection tools, when they print an error report. One of the possible use cases is userspace collection of kernel error reports: interested parties can subscribe to the tracing event via tracefs, and get notified when an error report occurs. This patch (of 3): Introduce error_report_end tracepoint. It can be used in debugging tools like KASAN, KFENCE, etc. to provide extensions to the error reporting mechanisms (e.g. allow tests hook into error reporting, ease error report collection from production kernels). Another benefit would be making use of ftrace for debugging or benchmarking the tools themselves. Should we need it, the tracepoint name leaves us with the possibility to introduce a complementary error_report_start tracepoint in the future.

kbuild: introduce ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y
CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file>.o filters out flags when compiling a particular
object, but there is no convenient way to do that for every object in
a directory.
Add ccflags-remove-y and asflags-remove-y to make it easily.
Use ccflags-remove-y to clean up some Makefiles.
The add/remove order works as follows:
[1] KBUILD_CFLAGS specifies compiler flags used globally
[2] ccflags-y adds compiler flags for all objects in the
current Makefile
[3] ccflags-remove-y removes compiler flags for all objects in the
current Makefile (New feature)
[4] CFLAGS_<file> adds compiler flags per file.
[5] CFLAGS_REMOVE_<file> removes compiler flags per file.
Having [3] before [4] allows us to remove flags from most (but not all)
objects in the current Makefile.
For example, kernel/trace/Makefile removes $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE)
from all objects in the directory, then adds it back to
trace_selftest_dynamic.o and CFLAGS_trace_kprobe_selftest.o
The same applies to lib/livepatch/Makefile.
Please note ccflags-remove-y has no effect to the sub-directories.
In contrast, the previous notation got rid of compiler flags also from
all the sub-directories.
The following are not affected because they have no sub-directories:
arch/arm/boot/compressed/
arch/powerpc/xmon/
arch/sh/
kernel/trace/
However, lib/ has several sub-directories.
To keep the behavior, I added ccflags-remove-y to all Makefiles
in subdirectories of lib/, except the following:
lib/vdso/Makefile - Kbuild does not descend into this Makefile
lib/raid/test/Makefile - This is not used for the kernel build
I think commit

bpf: Use dedicated bpf_trace_printk event instead of trace_printk()
The bpf helper bpf_trace_printk() uses trace_printk() under the hood. This leads to an alarming warning message originating from trace buffer allocation which occurs the first time a program using bpf_trace_printk() is loaded. We can instead create a trace event for bpf_trace_printk() and enable it in-kernel when/if we encounter a program using the bpf_trace_printk() helper. With this approach, trace_printk() is not used directly and no warning message appears.

tracing: Move synthetic events to a separate file
With the addition of the in-kernel synthetic event API, synthetic events are no longer specifically tied to the histogram triggers. The synthetic event code is also making trace_event_hist.c very bloated, so for those reasons, move it to a separate file, trace_events_synth.c, along with a new trace_synth.h header file. Because synthetic events are now independent from hist triggers, add a new CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENTS config option, and have CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS select it, and have CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENT_GEN_TEST depend on it.

kcsan, trace: Make KCSAN compatible with tracing
Previously the system would lock up if ftrace was enabled together with KCSAN. This is due to recursion on reporting if the tracer code is instrumented with KCSAN. To avoid this for all types of tracing, disable KCSAN instrumentation for all of kernel/trace. Furthermore, since KCSAN relies on udelay() to introduce delay, we have to disable ftrace for udelay() (currently done for x86) in case KCSAN is used together with lockdep and ftrace. The reason is that it may corrupt lockdep IRQ flags tracing state due to a peculiar case of recursion (details in Makefile comment).

tracing/boot: Add boot-time tracing
Setup tracing options via extra boot config in addition to kernel command line. This adds following commands support. These are applied to the global trace instance. - ftrace.options = OPT1[,OPT2...] Enable given ftrace options. - ftrace.trace_clock = CLOCK Set given CLOCK to ftrace's trace_clock. - ftrace.buffer_size = SIZE Configure ftrace buffer size to SIZE. You can use "KB" or "MB" for that SIZE. - ftrace.events = EVENT[, EVENT2...] Enable given events on boot. You can use a wild card in EVENT. - ftrace.tracer = TRACER Set TRACER to current tracer on boot. (e.g. function) Note that this is NOT replacing the kernel parameters, because this boot config based setting is later than that. If you want to trace earlier boot events, you still need kernel parameters.

tracing: Introduce trace event injection
We have been trying to use rasdaemon to monitor hardware errors like
correctable memory errors. rasdaemon uses trace events to monitor
various hardware errors. In order to test it, we have to inject some
hardware errors, unfortunately not all of them provide error
injections. MCE does provide a way to inject MCE errors, but errors
like PCI error and devlink error don't, it is not easy to add error
injection to each of them. Instead, it is relatively easier to just
allow users to inject trace events in a generic way so that all trace
events can be injected.
This patch introduces trace event injection, where a new 'inject' is
added to each tracepoint directory. Users could write into this file
with key=value pairs to specify the value of each fields of the trace
event, all unspecified fields are set to zero values by default.
For example, for the net/net_dev_queue tracepoint, we can inject:
INJECT=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/inject
echo "" > $INJECT
echo "name='test'" > $INJECT
echo "name='test' len=1024" > $INJECT
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
...
<...>-614 [000] .... 36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0
<...>-614 [001] .... 136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0
<...>-614 [001] .N.. 208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024
Triggers could be triggered as usual too:
echo "stacktrace if len == 1025" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/trigger
echo "len=1025" > $INJECT
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
...

bash-614 [001] .... 136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0
bash-614 [001] .N.. 208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024

=> event_inject_write
=> vfs_write
=> ksys_write
=> do_syscall_64
=> entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe
The only thing that can't be injected is string pointers as they
require constant string pointers, this can't be done at run time.

tracing: Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage
This patch detaches the preemptirq tracepoints from the tracers and
keeps it separate.
Advantages:
* Lockdep and irqsoff event can now run in parallel since they no longer
have their own calls.
* This unifies the usecase of adding hooks to an irqsoff and irqson
event, and a preemptoff and preempton event.
3 users of the events exist:
- Lockdep
- irqsoff and preemptoff tracers
- irqs and preempt trace events
The unification cleans up several ifdefs and makes the code in preempt
tracer and irqsoff tracers simpler. It gets rid of all the horrific
ifdeferry around PROVE_LOCKING and makes configuration of the different
users of the tracepoints more easy and understandable. It also gets rid
of the time_* function calls from the lockdep hooks used to call into
the preemptirq tracer which is not needed anymore. The negative delta in
lines of code in this patch is quite large too.
In the patch we introduce a new CONFIG option PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS
as a single point for registering probes onto the tracepoints. With
this,
the web of config options for preempt/irq toggle tracepoints and its
users becomes:
PREEMPT_TRACER PREEMPTIRQ_EVENTS IRQSOFF_TRACER PROVE_LOCKING
| | \ | |
\ (selects) / \ \ (selects) /
TRACE_PREEMPT_TOGGLE ----> TRACE_IRQFLAGS
\ /
\ (depends on) /
PREEMPTIRQ_TRACEPOINTS
Other than the performance tests mentioned in the previous patch, I also
ran the locking API test suite. I verified that all tests cases are
passing.
I also injected issues by not registering lockdep probes onto the
tracepoints and I see failures to confirm that the probes are indeed
working.
This series + lockdep probes not registered (just to inject errors):
[ 0.000000] hard-irqs-on + irq-safe-A/21: ok | ok | ok |
[ 0.000000] soft-irqs-on + irq-safe-A/21: ok | ok | ok |

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

tracing: Add support for preempt and irq enable/disable events
Preempt and irq trace events can be used for tracing the start and end of an atomic section which can be used by a trace viewer like systrace to graphically view the start and end of an atomic section and correlate them with latencies and scheduling issues. This also serves as a prelude to using synthetic events or probes to rewrite the preempt and irqsoff tracers, along with numerous benefits of using trace events features for these events.

tracing: Added hardware latency tracer
The hardware latency tracer has been in the PREEMPT_RT patch for some time.
It is used to detect possible SMIs or any other hardware interruptions that
the kernel is unaware of. Note, NMIs may also be detected, but that may be
good to note as well.
The logic is pretty simple. It simply creates a thread that spins on a
single CPU for a specified amount of time (width) within a periodic window
(window). These numbers may be adjusted by their cooresponding names in
/sys/kernel/tracing/hwlat_detector/
The defaults are window = 1000000 us (1 second)
width = 500000 us (1/2 second)
The loop consists of:
t1 = trace_clock_local();
t2 = trace_clock_local();
Where trace_clock_local() is a variant of sched_clock().
The difference of t2 - t1 is recorded as the "inner" timestamp and also the
timestamp t1 - prev_t2 is recorded as the "outer" timestamp. If either of
these differences are greater than the time denoted in
/sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_thresh then it records the event.
When this tracer is started, and tracing_thresh is zero, it changes to the
default threshold of 10 us.
The hwlat tracer in the PREEMPT_RT patch was originally written by
Jon Masters. I have modified it quite a bit and turned it into a
tracer.

Makefile: Mute warning for __builtin_return_address(>0) for tracing only
With the latest gcc compilers, they give a warning if __builtin_return_address() parameter is greater than 0. That is because if it is used by a function called by a top level function (or in the case of the kernel, by assembly), it can try to access stack frames outside the stack and crash the system. The tracing system uses __builtin_return_address() of up to 2! But it is well aware of the dangers that it may have, and has even added precautions to protect against it (see the thunk code in arch/x86/entry/thunk*.S) Linus originally added KBUILD_CFLAGS that would suppress the warning for the entire kernel, as simply adding KBUILD_CFLAGS to the tracing directory wouldn't work. The tracing directory plays a bit with the CFLAGS and requires a little more logic. This adds that special logic to only suppress the warning for the tracing directory. If it is used anywhere else outside of tracing, the warning will still be triggered.

tracing: Add 'hist' event trigger command
'hist' triggers allow users to continually aggregate trace events, which can then be viewed afterwards by simply reading a 'hist' file containing the aggregation in a human-readable format. The basic idea is very simple and boils down to a mechanism whereby trace events, rather than being exhaustively dumped in raw form and viewed directly, are automatically 'compressed' into meaningful tables completely defined by the user. This is done strictly via single-line command-line commands and without the aid of any kind of programming language or interpreter. A surprising number of typical use cases can be accomplished by users via this simple mechanism. In fact, a large number of the tasks that users typically do using the more complicated script-based tracing tools, at least during the initial stages of an investigation, can be accomplished by simply specifying a set of keys and values to be used in the creation of a hash table. The Linux kernel trace event subsystem happens to provide an extensive list of keys and values ready-made for such a purpose in the form of the event format files associated with each trace event. By simply consulting the format file for field names of interest and by plugging them into the hist trigger command, users can create an endless number of useful aggregations to help with investigating various properties of the system. See Documentation/trace/events.txt for examples. hist triggers are implemented on top of the existing event trigger infrastructure, and as such are consistent with the existing triggers from a user's perspective as well. The basic syntax follows the existing trigger syntax. Users start an aggregation by writing a 'hist' trigger to the event of interest's trigger file: # echo hist:keys=xxx [ if filter] > event/trigger Once a hist trigger has been set up, by default it continually aggregates every matching event into a hash table using the event key and a value field named 'hitcount'. To view the aggregation at any point in time, simply read the 'hist' file in the same directory as the 'trigger' file: # cat event/hist The detailed syntax provides additional options for user control, and is described exhaustively in Documentation/trace/events.txt and in the virtual tracing/README file in the tracing subsystem.

tracing: Add lock-free tracing_map
Add tracing_map, a special-purpose lock-free map for tracing. tracing_map is designed to aggregate or 'sum' one or more values associated with a specific object of type tracing_map_elt, which is associated by the map to a given key. It provides various hooks allowing per-tracer customization and is separated out into a separate file in order to allow it to be shared between multiple tracers, but isn't meant to be generally used outside of that context. The tracing_map implementation was inspired by lock-free map algorithms originated by Dr. Cliff Click: http://www.azulsystems.com/blog/cliff/2007-03-26-non-blocking-hashtable http://www.azulsystems.com/events/javaone_2007/2007_LockFreeHash.pdf Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/b43d68d1add33582a396f553c8ef705a33a6a748.1449767187.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Reviewed-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> |

bpf: Fix the build on BPF_SYSCALL=y && !CONFIG_TRACING kernels, make it more configurable
So bpf_tracing.o depends on CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL - but that's not its only
dependency, it also depends on the tracing infrastructure and on kprobes,
without which it will fail to build with:
In file included from kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:14:0:
kernel/trace/trace.h: In function ‘trace_test_and_set_recursion’:
kernel/trace/trace.h:491:28: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member named ‘trace_recursion’
unsigned int val = current->trace_recursion;
[...]
It took quite some time to trigger this build failure, because right now
BPF_SYSCALL is very obscure, depends on CONFIG_EXPERT. So also make BPF_SYSCALL
more configurable, not just under CONFIG_EXPERT.
If BPF_SYSCALL, tracing and kprobes are enabled then enable the bpf_tracing
gateway as well.
We might want to make this an interactive option later on, although
I'd not complicate it unnecessarily: enabling BPF_SYSCALL is enough of
an indicator that the user wants BPF support.

tracing, perf: Implement BPF programs attached to kprobes
BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute
user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or
hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such
programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break
out of their sandbox.
The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall:
struct perf_event_attr attr = {
.type = PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT,
.config = event_id,
...
};
event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...);
ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd);
'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program
previously loaded.
'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created.
Closing 'event_fd':
close(event_fd);
... automatically detaches BPF program from it.
BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to:
- lookup/update/delete elements in maps
- probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any
kernel data structures
BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is
architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store
kprobe event into the ring buffer.
Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI,
so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for
every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE
in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

tracing: Add tracepoint benchmark tracepoint
In order to help benchmark the time tracepoints take, a new config
option is added called CONFIG_TRACEPOINT_BENCHMARK. When this option
is set a tracepoint is created called "benchmark:benchmark_event".
When the tracepoint is enabled, it kicks off a kernel thread that
goes into an infinite loop (calling cond_sched() to let other tasks
run), and calls the tracepoint. Each iteration will record the time
it took to write to the tracepoint and the next iteration that
data will be passed to the tracepoint itself. That is, the tracepoint
will report the time it took to do the previous tracepoint.
The string written to the tracepoint is a static string of 128 bytes
to keep the time the same. The initial string is simply a write of
"START". The second string records the cold cache time of the first
write which is not added to the rest of the calculations.
As it is a tight loop, it benchmarks as hot cache. That's fine because
we care most about hot paths that are probably in cache already.
An example of the output:
START
first=3672 [COLD CACHED]
last=632 first=3672 max=632 min=632 avg=316 std=446 std^2=199712
last=278 first=3672 max=632 min=278 avg=303 std=316 std^2=100337

tracing: Add basic event trigger framework
Add a 'trigger' file for each trace event, enabling 'trace event
triggers' to be set for trace events.
'trace event triggers' are patterned after the existing 'ftrace
function triggers' implementation except that triggers are written to
per-event 'trigger' files instead of to a single file such as the
'set_ftrace_filter' used for ftrace function triggers.
The implementation is meant to be entirely separate from ftrace
function triggers, in order to keep the respective implementations
relatively simple and to allow them to diverge.
The event trigger functionality is built on top of SOFT_DISABLE
functionality. It adds a TRIGGER_MODE bit to the ftrace_event_file
flags which is checked when any trace event fires. Triggers set for a
particular event need to be checked regardless of whether that event
is actually enabled or not - getting an event to fire even if it's not
enabled is what's already implemented by SOFT_DISABLE mode, so trigger
mode directly reuses that. Event trigger essentially inherit the soft
disable logic in __ftrace_event_enable_disable() while adding a bit of
logic and trigger reference counting via tm_ref on top of that in a
new trace_event_trigger_enable_disable() function. Because the base
__ftrace_event_enable_disable() code now needs to be invoked from
outside trace_events.c, a wrapper is also added for those usages.
The triggers for an event are actually invoked via a new function,
event_triggers_call(), and code is also added to invoke them for
ftrace_raw_event calls as well as syscall events.
The main part of the patch creates a new trace_events_trigger.c file
to contain the trace event triggers implementation.
The standard open, read, and release file operations are implemented
here.
The open() implementation sets up for the various open modes of the
'trigger' file. It creates and attaches the trigger iterator and sets
up the command parser. If opened for reading set up the trigger
seq_ops.
The read() implementation parses the event trigger written to the
'trigger' file, looks up the trigger command, and passes it along to
that event_command's func() implementation for command-specific
processing.
The release() implementation does whatever cleanup is needed to
release the 'trigger' file, like releasing the parser and trigger
iterator, etc.
A couple of functions for event command registration and
unregistration are added, along with a list to add them to and a mutex
to protect them, as well as an (initially empty) registration function
to add the set of commands that will be added by future commits, and
call to it from the trace event initialization code.
also added are a couple trigger-specific data structures needed for
these implementations such as a trigger iterator and a struct for
trigger-specific data.
A couple structs consisting mostly of function meant to be implemented
in command-specific ways, event_command and event_trigger_ops, are
used by the generic event trigger command implementations. They're
being put into trace.h alongside the other trace_event data structures
and functions, in the expectation that they'll be needed in several
trace_event-related files such as trace_events_trigger.c and
trace_events.c.
The event_command.func() function is meant to be called by the trigger
parsing code in order to add a trigger instance to the corresponding
event. It essentially coordinates adding a live trigger instance to
the event, and arming the triggering the event.
Every event_command func() implementation essentially does the
same thing for any command:
- choose ops - use the value of param to choose either a number or
count version of event_trigger_ops specific to the command
- do the register or unregister of those ops
- associate a filter, if specified, with the triggering event
The reg() and unreg() ops allow command-specific implementations for
event_trigger_op registration and unregistration, and the
get_trigger_ops() op allows command-specific event_trigger_ops
selection to be parameterized. When a trigger instance is added, the
reg() op essentially adds that trigger to the triggering event and
arms it, while unreg() does the opposite. The set_filter() function
is used to associate a filter with the trigger - if the command
doesn't specify a set_filter() implementation, the command will ignore
filters.
Each command has an associated trigger_type, which serves double duty,
both as a unique identifier for the command as well as a value that
can be used for setting a trigger mode bit during trigger invocation.
The signature of func() adds a pointer to the event_command struct,
used to invoke those functions, along with a command_data param that
can be passed to the reg/unreg functions. This allows func()
implementations to use command-specific blobs and supports code
re-use.
The event_trigger_ops.func() command corrsponds to the trigger 'probe'
function that gets called when the triggering event is actually
invoked. The other functions are used to list the trigger when
needed, along with a couple mundane book-keeping functions.
This also moves event_file_data() into trace.h so it can be used
outside of trace_events.c.

Pull user-space probe instrumentation from Ingo Molnar: "The uprobes code originates from SystemTap and has been used for years in Fedora and RHEL kernels. This version is much rewritten, reviews from PeterZ, Oleg and myself shaped the end result.

The core uprobes design is fairly straightforward: uprobes probe points register themselves at (inode:offset) addresses of libraries/binaries, after which all existing (or new) vmas that map that address will have a software breakpoint injected at that address. vmas are COW-ed to preserve original content. The probe points are kept in an rbtree. If user-space executes the probed inode:offset instruction address then an event is generated which can be recovered from the regular perf event channels and mmap-ed ring-buffer. Multiple probes at the same address are supported, they create a dynamic callback list of event consumers. The basic model is further complicated by the XOL speedup: the original instruction that is probed is copied (in an architecture specific fashion) and executed out of line when the probe triggers. The XOL area is a single vma per process, with a fixed number of entries (which limits probe execution parallelism). The API: uprobes are installed/removed via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events, the API is integrated to align with the kprobes interface as much as possible, but is separate to it. Injecting a probe point is privileged operation, which can be relaxed by setting perf_paranoid to -1. You can use multiple probes as well and mix them with kprobes and regular PMU events or tracepoints, when instrumenting a task."
