Reseting the trace buffer without first disabling the buffer and
waiting for any writers to complete, can corrupt the ring buffer.
This patch makes the external version of tracing_reset safe from
corruption by disabling the ring buffer and calling synchronize_sched.
This version can no longer be called from interrupt context. But all those
callers have been removed.

Currently the latency tracers reset the ring buffer. Unfortunately
if a commit is in process (due to a trace event), this can corrupt
the ring buffer. When this happens, the ring buffer will detect
the corruption and then permanently disable the ring buffer.
The bug does not crash the system, but it does prevent further tracing
after the bug is hit.
Instead of reseting the trace buffers, the timestamp of the start of
the trace is used instead. The buffers will still contain the previous
data, but the output will not count any data that is before the
timestamp of the trace.
Note, this only affects the static trace output (trace) and not the
runtime trace output (trace_pipe). The runtime trace output does not
make sense for the latency tracers anyway.

The function tracing_reset is deprecated for outside use of trace.c.
The new function to reset the the buffers is tracing_reset_online_cpus.
The reason for this is that resetting the buffers while the event
trace points are active can corrupt the buffers, because they may
be writing at the time of reset. The tracing_reset_online_cpus disables
writes and waits for current writers to finish.
This patch replaces all users of tracing_reset except for the latency
tracers. Those changes require more work and will be removed in the
following patches.

When reading the tracer from the trace file, updating the max latency

Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
During development of the tracer, we would copy information from
the live tracer to the max tracer with one memcpy. Since then we
added a generic ring buffer and we handle the copies differently now.
Unfortunately, we never copied the critical section information, and
we lost the output:
# => started at: kmem_cache_alloc
# => ended at: kmem_cache_alloc
This patch adds back the critical start and end copying as well as
removes the unused "trace_idx" and "overrun" fields of the
trace_array_cpu structure.

This patch implements the kernel side support for ftrace event
record sampling.
A new counter sampling attribute is added:
PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD
which requests ftrace events record sampling. In this case
if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint
fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the
perfcounter event buffer, as a sample.
Result, after setting PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD attribute from perf
record:
perf record -f -F 1 -a -e workqueue:workqueue_execution
perf report -D
0x21e18 [0x48]: event: 9

tgid = 0xa = 10;
}
thread_comm = "events/1"
thread_pid = 0xa = 10;
func = 0xffffffff8131b1e0 = flush_to_ldisc()
What will come next?
- Userspace support ('perf trace'), 'flight data recorder' mode
for perf trace, etc.
- The unconditional copy from the profiling callback brings
some costs however if someone wants no such sampling to
occur, and needs to be fixed in the future. For that we need
to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute.
This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event.
- Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record
a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in
the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity.
That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity
protection.

This patch converts the ring buffers into a completely lockless
buffer recording system. The read side still takes locks since
we still serialize readers. But the writers are the ones that
must be lockless (those can happen in NMIs).
The main change is to the "head_page" pointer. We write to the
tail, and read from the head. The "head_page" pointer in the cpu
buffer is now just a reference to where to look. The real head
page is now kept in the head_page->list->prev->next pointer.
That is, in the list head of the previous page we set flags.
The list pages are allocated to be aligned such that the lowest
significant bits are always zero pointing to the list. This gives
us play to put in flags to their pointers.
bit 0: set when the page is a head page
bit 1: set when the writer is moving the page (for overwrite mode)
cmpxchg is used to update the pointer.
When the writer wraps the buffer and the tail meets the head,
in overwrite mode, the writer must move the head page forward.
It first uses cmpxchg to change the pointer flag from 1 to 2.
Once this is done, the reader on another CPU will not take the
page from the buffer.
The writers need to protect against interrupts (we don't bother with
disabling interrupts because NMIs are allowed to write too).
After the writer sets the pointer flag to 2, it takes care to
manage interrupts coming in. This is discribed in detail within the
comments of the code.
Changes in version 2:
- Let reader reset entries value of header page.
- Fix tail page passing commit page on reader page test.
- Always increment entries and write counter in rb_tail_page_update
- Add safety check in rb_set_commit_to_write to break out of infinite loop
- add mask in rb_is_reader_page

I found that there is nothing to protect event_hash in
ftrace_find_event(). Rcu protects the event hashlist
but not the event itself while we use it after its extraction
through ftrace_find_event().
This lack of a proper locking in this spot opens a race
window between any event dereferencing and module removal.
Eg:
--Task A--
print_trace_line(trace) {
event = find_ftrace_event(trace)
--Task B--
trace_module_remove_events(mod) {
list_trace_events_module(ev, mod) {
unregister_ftrace_event(ev->event) {
hlist_del(ev->event->node)
list_del(....)
}
}
}
|--> module removed, the event has been dropped
--Task A--
event->print(trace); // Dereferencing freed memory
If the event retrieved belongs to a module and this module
is concurrently removed, we may end up dereferencing a data
from a freed module.
RCU could solve this, but it would add latency to the kernel and
forbid tracers output callbacks to call any sleepable code.
So this fix converts 'trace_event_mutex' to a read/write semaphore,
and adds trace_event_read_lock() to protect ftrace_find_event().

Li Zefan found that there's a race using the event ids of events and
modules. When a module is loaded, an event id is incremented. We only
have 16 bits for event ids (65536) and there is a possible (but highly
unlikely) race that we could load and unload a module that registers
events so many times that the event id counter overflows.
When it overflows, it then restarts and goes looking for available
ids. An id is available if it was added by a module and released.
The race is if you have one module add an id, and then is removed.
Another module loaded can use that same event id. But if the old module
still had events in the ring buffer, the new module's call back would
get bogus data. At best (and most likely) the output would just be
garbage. But if the module for some reason used pointers (not recommended)
then this could potentially crash.
The safest thing to do is just reset the ring buffer if a module that
registered events is removed.

Where entries are the total number of data entries in the buffer.
overrun is the number of entries not consumed and were overwritten by

commit overrun is the number of entries dropped due to nested writers
wrapping the buffer before the initial writer finished the commit.
nmi dropped is the number of entries dropped due to the ring buffer
lock being held when an nmi was going to write to the ring buffer.
Note, this field will be meaningless and will go away when the ring
buffer becomes lockless.

Splice works with pages, it is much more effecient to use an entire
page than to copy bits over several pages.
Using logdev to trace the internals of the splice mechanism, I was
able to see that splice can be very aggressive. When tracing is
occurring, and the reader caught up to the writer, and the writer
is on the reader page, the reader will copy what is there into the
splice page. Splice may iterate over several pages and if the
writer is still writing to the page, the reader will keep copying
bits to new pages to pass to userspace.
This patch changes it to only pass data to userspace if the page
is full (the writer has left the page). This has a small side effect
that splice can not read a partial page, and must wait for the
page to fill. This should not be an issue. If tracing has stopped,
then a use of "read" will still read all of the page.

ftrace_dump is used for printing out the contents of the ftrace ring buffer
to the console on failure. Currently it uses a spinlock to synchronize

currently is a normal spinlock and can cause issues with lockdep and

[ Impact: let userspace apps reading binary buffer know comm's of pids ]

Impact: let modules add trace events
The trace event code requires some functions to be exported to allow
modules to use TRACE_EVENT. This patch adds EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL to the
necessary functions.

This patch changes filter_check_discard() to make use of the new
ring_buffer_discard_commit() function and modifies the current users to
call the old commit function in the non-discard case.
It also introduces a version of filter_check_discard() that uses the
global trace buffer (filter_current_check_discard()) for those cases.
v2 changes:
