commit 9457158bbc upstream.
Fixed two issues with changing the timestamp clock with trace_clock:
- The global buffer was reset on instance clock changes. Change this to pass
the correct per-instance buffer
- ftrace_now() is used to set buf->time_start in tracing_reset_online_cpus().
This was incorrect because ftrace_now() used the global buffer's clock to
return the current time. Change this to use buffer_ftrace_now() which
returns the current time for the correct per-instance buffer.
Also removed tracing_reset_current() because it is not used anywhere

commit 10246fa35d upstream.
If the ring buffer is disabled and the irqsoff tracer records a trace it
will clear out its buffer and lose the data it had previously recorded.
Currently there's a callback when writing to the tracing_of file, but if
tracing is disabled via the function tracer trigger, it will not inform
the irqsoff tracer to stop recording.
By using the "mirror" flag (buffer_disabled) in the trace_array, that keeps
track of the status of the trace_array's buffer, it gives the irqsoff
tracer a fast way to know if it should record a new trace or not.
The flag may be a little behind the real state of the buffer, but it
should not affect the trace too much. It's more important for the irqsoff
tracer to be fast.

commit ed5467da0e upstream.
tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains
a comment about that, but it doesn't help.
The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is
snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed.
The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to
cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344), in other words it was
converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask.
Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read
from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed.
The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe
can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

commit 09d8091c02 upstream.
Commit a82274151a "tracing: Protect ftrace_trace_arrays list in trace_events.c"
added taking the trace_types_lock mutex in trace_events.c as there were
several locations that needed it for protection. Unfortunately, it also
encapsulated a call to tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() which also takes
the trace_types_lock, causing a deadlock.
This happens when a module has tracepoints and has been traced. When the
module is removed, the trace events module notifier will grab the
trace_types_lock, do a bunch of clean ups, and also clears the buffer
by calling tracing_reset_all_online_cpus. This doesn't happen often
which explains why it wasn't caught right away.
Commit a82274151a was marked for stable, which means this must be
sent to stable too.

Commit a695cb5816 "tracing: Prevent deleting instances when they are being read"
tried to fix a race between deleting a trace instance and reading contents
of a trace file. But it wasn't good enough. The following could crash the kernel:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances
# ( while :; do mkdir foo; rmdir foo; done ) &
# ( while :; do echo 1 > foo/events/sched/sched_switch 2> /dev/null; done ) &
Luckily this can only be done by root user, but it should be fixed regardless.
The problem is that a delete of the file can happen after the write to the event
is opened, but before the enabling happens.
The solution is to make sure the trace_array is available before succeeding in
opening for write, and incerment the ref counter while opened.
Now the instance can be deleted when the events are writing to the buffer,
but the deletion of the instance will disable all events before the instance
is actually deleted.

commit 2a6c24afab upstream.
While analyzing the code, I discovered that there's a potential race between
deleting a trace instance and setting events. There are a few races that can
occur if events are being traced as the buffer is being deleted. Mostly the
problem comes with freeing the descriptor used by the trace event callback.
To prevent problems like this, the events are disabled before the buffer is
deleted. The problem with the current solution is that the event_mutex is let
go between disabling the events and freeing the files, which means that the events
could be enabled again while the freeing takes place.

Luckily this can only be done by root user, but it should be fixed regardless.
The problem is that a delete of the file can happen after the reader starts
to open the file but before it grabs the trace_types_mutex.
The solution is to validate the trace array before using it. If the trace
array does not exist in the list of trace arrays, then it returns -ENODEV.
There's a possibility that a trace_array could be deleted and a new one
created and the open would open its file instead. But that is very minor as
it will just return the data of the new trace array, it may confuse the user
but it will not crash the system. As this can only be done by root anyway,
the race will only occur if root is deleting what its trying to read at
the same time.

commit 6e94a78037 upstream.
Running the following:

# ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/
enable filter j
Notice that the 'i' is missing from the kprobes directory.
The console produces:
"Failed to create system directory kprobes"
This is because kprobes passes in a allocated name for the system
and the ftrace event subsystem saves off that name instead of creating
a duplicate for it. But the kprobes may free the system name making
the pointer to it invalid.
This bug was introduced by 92edca073c "tracing: Use direct field, type
and system names" which switched from using kstrdup() on the system name
in favor of just keeping apointer to it, as the internal ftrace event
system names are static and exist for the life of the computer being booted.
Instead of reverting back to duplicating system names again, we can use
core_kernel_data() to determine if the passed in name was allocated or
static. Then use the MSB of the ref_count to be a flag to keep track if
the name was allocated or not. Then we can still save from having to duplicate
strings that will always exist, but still copy the ones that may be freed.

Outputting formats of x86-tsc and counter should be a raw format, but after
applying the patch(2b6080f28c), the format was
changed to nanosec. This is because the global variable trace_clock_id was used.
When we use multiple buffers, clock_id of each sub-buffer should be used. Then,
this patch uses tr->clock_id instead of the global variable trace_clock_id.
[ Basically, this fixes a regression where the multibuffer code changed the
trace_clock file to update tr->clock_id but the traces still use the old
global trace_clock_id variable, negating the file's effect. The global
trace_clock_id variable is obsolete and removed. - SR ]

The irqsoff tracer records the max time that interrupts are disabled.
There are hooks in the assembly code that calls back into the tracer when
interrupts are disabled or enabled.
When they are enabled, the tracer checks if the amount of time they
were disabled is larger than the previous recorded max interrupts off
time. If it is, it creates a snapshot of the currently running trace
to store where the last largest interrupts off time was held and how
it happened.

What happened was entering into the user code, the interrupts were enabled
and a max interrupts off was recorded. The trace buffer was saved along with
various information about the task: comm, pid, uid, priority, etc.
The uid is recorded with task_uid(tsk). But this is a macro that uses rcu_read_lock()
to retrieve the data, and this happened to happen where RCU is blind (user_enter).
As only the preempt and irqs off tracers can have this happen, and they both
only have the tsk == current, if tsk == current, use current_uid() instead of
task_uid(), as current_uid() does not use RCU as only current can change its uid.
This fixes the RCU suspicious splat.

As rcu_dereference_raw() under RCU debug config options can add quite a

happen with the function tracer. The function tracer also happens to trace

Have the function tracer use the new RCU _notrace equivalents that do
not do the debug checks for RCU.

If ftrace=<tracer> is on the kernel command line, when that tracer is
registered, it will be initiated by tracing_set_tracer() to execute that
tracer.
The nop tracer is just a stub tracer that is used to have no tracer
enabled. It is assigned at early bootup as it is the default tracer.
But if ftrace=nop is on the kernel command line, the registering of the
nop tracer will call tracing_set_tracer() which will try to execute
the nop tracer. But it expects tr->current_trace to be assigned something
as it usually is assigned to the nop tracer. As it hasn't been assigned
to anything yet, it causes the system to crash.
The simple fix is to move the tr->current_trace = nop before registering
the nop tracer. The functionality is still the same as the nop tracer
doesn't do anything anyway.

The enabled_functions debugfs file was created to be able to see
what functions have been modified from nops to calling a tracer.
The current method uses the counter in the function record.
As when a ftrace_ops is registered to a function, its count
increases. But that doesn't mean that the function is actively
being traced. /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled can be set to zero
which would disable it, as well as something can go wrong and
we can think its enabled when only the counter is set.
The record's FTRACE_FL_ENABLED flag is set or cleared when its
function is modified. That is a much more accurate way of knowing
what function is enabled or not.

counter in each ftrace_event_file.
Without this fix, adding and removing several different
enable/disable_event triggers on the same event clear
soft-mode bit from the ftrace_event_file. This also
happens with a typo of glob on setting triggers.
e.g.
# echo vfs_symlink:enable_event:net:netif_rx > set_ftrace_filter
# cat events/net/netif_rx/enable
0*
# echo typo_func:enable_event:net:netif_rx > set_ftrace_filter
# cat events/net/netif_rx/enable
0
# cat set_ftrace_filter
#### all functions enabled ####
vfs_symlink:enable_event:net:netif_rx:unlimited
As above, we still have a trigger, but soft-mode is gone.

Cleanup regex_lock and ftrace_lock locking points around
ftrace_ops hash update code.
The new rule is that regex_lock protects ops->*_hash
read-update-write code for each ftrace_ops. Usually,
hash update is done by following sequence.
1. allocate a new local hash and copy the original hash.
2. update the local hash.
3. move(actually, copy) back the local hash to ftrace_ops.
4. update ftrace entries if needed.
5. release the local hash.
This makes regex_lock protect #1-#4, and ftrace_lock
to protect #3, #4 and adding and removing ftrace_ops from the
ftrace_ops_list. The ftrace_lock protects #3 as well because
the move functions update the entries too.

sh/72 is trying to acquire lock:
(ftrace_regex_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff810ba6c1>] ftrace_set_hash+0x81/0x1f0
but task is already holding lock:

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0
----
lock(ftrace_regex_lock);
lock(ftrace_regex_lock);
*** DEADLOCK ***
----
To fix that, this introduces a finer regex_lock for each ftrace_ops.
ftrace_regex_lock is too big of a lock which protects all
filter/notrace_hash operations, but it doesn't need to be a global
lock after supporting multiple ftrace_ops because each ftrace_ops
has its own filter/notrace_hash.

[ Added initialization flag and automate mutex initialization for
non ftrace.c ftrace_probes. ]

As ftrace_regex_write() reads the result of ftrace_process_regex()
which can sometimes return a positive number, only consider a
failure if the return is negative. Otherwise, it will skip possible
other registered probes and by returning a positive number that
wasn't read, it will confuse the user processes doing the writing.

register_ftrace_function_probe() returns the number of functions
it registered, which can be zero, it can also return a negative number
if something went wrong. But event_enable_func() only checks for
the case that it didn't register anything, it needs to also check
for the case that something went wrong and return that error code
as well.
Added some comments about the code as well, to make it more
understandable.

Return 0 instead of the number of activated ftrace function probes if
event_enable_func succeeded and return an error code if it failed or
did not register any functions. But it currently returns the number
of registered functions and if it didn't register anything, it returns 0,
but that is considered success.
This also fixes the return value. As if it succeeds, it returns the
number of functions that were enabled, which is returned back to
the user in ftrace_regex_write (the write() return code). If only
one function is enabled, then the return code of the write is one,
and this can confuse the user program in thinking it only wrote 1
byte.

As the wake up logic for waiters on the buffer has been moved
from the tracing code to the ring buffer, it requires also adding
IRQ_WORK as the wake up code is performed via irq_work.
This fixes compile breakage when a user of the ring buffer is selected
but tracing and irq_work are not.
