Added various checks on open tracefs calls to see if tracefs is in lockdown
mode, and if so, to return -EPERM.
Note, the event format files (which are basically standard on all machines)
as well as the enabled_functions file (which shows what is currently being
traced) are not lockde down. Perhaps they should be, but it seems counter
intuitive to lockdown information to help you know if the system has been
modified.

Currently, most files in the tracefs directory test if tracing_disabled is
set. If so, it should return -ENODEV. The tracing_disabled is called when
tracing is found to be broken. Originally it was done in case the ring
buffer was found to be corrupted, and we wanted to prevent reading it from
crashing the kernel. But it's also called if a tracing selftest fails on
boot. It's a one way switch. That is, once it is triggered, tracing is
disabled until reboot.
As most tracefs files can also be used by instances in the tracefs
directory, they need to be carefully done. Each instance has a trace_array
associated to it, and when the instance is removed, the trace_array is
freed. But if an instance is opened with a reference to the trace_array,
then it requires looking up the trace_array to get its ref counter (as there
could be a race with it being deleted and the open itself). Once it is
found, a reference is added to prevent the instance from being removed (and
the trace_array associated with it freed).
Combine the two checks (tracing_disabled and trace_array_get()) into a
single helper function. This will also make it easier to add lockdown to
tracefs later.

The trace event self tests enable loop through *all* events, enables each
one, one at a time, runs some code to trigger various events (not
necessarily the same events), and checks if anything went wrong. The issue
is that trace events are usually the least likely start up test to cause a
problem, but they take the longest to run (because there are so many
events). When one of the other tests trigger a bug, the trace event start up
tests causes the bisect to take much longer, because it takes 10s of seconds
to get through the trace event tests.
By making them a separate config (even though they are enabled by default if
start up tests are set), it is possible to turn them off and still run the
other tracing start up tests much quicker.

When reading only part of the id file, the ppos isn't tracked correctly.
This is taken care by simple_read_from_buffer.
Reading a single byte, and then the next byte would result EOF.
While this seems like not a big deal, this breaks abstractions that

commit cd458ba9d5

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) {

return 1;
int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY);
char c;
read(fd, &c, 1);
printf("First %c\n", c);
read(fd, &c, 1);
printf("Second %c\n", c);
}
Then run with, e.g.
sudo ./a.out /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tcp/tcp_set_state/id
You'll notice you're getting the first character twice, instead of the
first two characters in the id file.

synthetic event is using synth_event_mutex for protecting

locks as below order.
event_trigger_write(event_mutex)
->trigger_process_regex(trigger_cmd_mutex)
->event_hist_trigger_func(synth_event_mutex)
On the other hand, synthetic event creation and deletion paths
call trace_add_event_call() and trace_remove_event_call()
which acquires event_mutex. In that case, if we keep the
synth_event_mutex locked while registering/unregistering synthetic
events, its dependency will be inversed.
To avoid this issue, current synthetic event is using a 2 phase
process to create/delete events. For example, it searches existing
events under synth_event_mutex to check for event-name conflicts, and
unlocks synth_event_mutex, then registers a new event under event_mutex
locked. Finally, it locks synth_event_mutex and tries to add the
new event to the list. But it can introduce complexity and a chance
for name conflicts.
To solve this simpler, this introduces trace_add_event_call_nolock()
and trace_remove_event_call_nolock() which don't acquire
event_mutex inside. synthetic event can lock event_mutex before
synth_event_mutex to solve the lock dependency issue simpler.

Since enums do not get converted by the TRACE_EVENT macro into their values,
the event format displaces the enum name and not the value. This breaks
tools like perf and trace-cmd that need to interpret the raw binary data. To
solve this, an enum map was created to convert these enums into their actual
numbers on boot up. This is done by TRACE_EVENTS() adding a
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro.
Some enums were not being converted. This was caused by an optization that
had a bug in it.
All calls get checked against this enum map to see if it should be converted
or not, and it compares the call's system to the system that the enum map
was created under. If they match, then they call is processed.
To cut down on the number of iterations needed to find the maps with a
matching system, since calls and maps are grouped by system, when a match is
made, the index into the map array is saved, so that the next call, if it
belongs to the same system as the previous call, could start right at that
array index and not have to scan all the previous arrays.
The problem was, the saved index was used as the variable to know if this is
a call in a new system or not. If the index was zero, it was assumed that
the call is in a new system and would keep incrementing the saved index
until it found a matching system. The issue arises when the first matching
system was at index zero. The next map, if it belonged to the same system,
would then think it was the first match and increment the index to one. If
the next call belong to the same system, it would begin its search of the
maps off by one, and miss the first enum that should be converted. This left
a single enum not converted properly.
Also add a comment to describe exactly what that index was for. It took me a
bit too long to figure out what I was thinking when debugging this issue.

Currently, when a module event is enabled, when that module is removed, it
clears all ring buffers. This is to prevent another module from being loaded
and having one of its trace event IDs from reusing a trace event ID of the
removed module. This could cause undesirable effects as the trace event of
the new module would be using its own processing algorithms to process raw
data of another event. To prevent this, when a module is loaded, if any of
its events have been used (signified by the WAS_ENABLED event call flag,
which is never cleared), all ring buffers are cleared, just in case any one
of them contains event data of the removed event.
The problem is, there's no reason to clear all ring buffers if only one (or
less than all of them) uses one of the events. Instead, only clear the ring
buffers that recorded the events of a module that is being removed.
To do this, instead of keeping the WAS_ENABLED flag with the trace event
call, move it to the per instance (per ring buffer) event file descriptor.
The event file descriptor maps each event to a separate ring buffer
instance. Then when the module is removed, only the ring buffers that
activated one of the module's events get cleared. The rest are not touched.

With the redesign of the registration and execution of the function probes
(triggers), data can now be passed from the setup of the probe to the probe
callers that are specific to the trace_array it is on. Although, all probes
still only affect the toplevel trace array, this change will allow for
instances to have their own probes separated from other instances and the
top array.
That is, something like the stacktrace probe can be set to trace only in an
instance and not the toplevel trace array. This isn't implement yet, but
this change sets the ground work for the change.
When a probe callback is triggered (someone writes the probe format into
set_ftrace_filter), it calls register_ftrace_function_probe() passing in
init_data that will be used to initialize the probe. Then for every matching
function, register_ftrace_function_probe() will call the probe_ops->init()
function with the init data that was passed to it, as well as an address to
a place holder that is associated with the probe and the instance. The first
occurrence will have a NULL in the pointer. The init() function will then
initialize it. If other probes are added, or more functions are part of the
probe, the place holder will be passed to the init() function with the place
holder data that it was initialized to the last time.
Then this place_holder is passed to each of the other probe_ops functions,
where it can be used in the function callback. When the probe_ops free()
function is called, it can be called either with the rip of the function
that is being removed from the probe, or zero, indicating that there are no
more functions attached to the probe, and the place holder is about to be
freed. This gives the probe_ops a way to free the data it assigned to the
place holder if it was allocade during the first init call.

In order to eventually have each trace_array instance have its own unique
set of function probes (triggers), the trace array needs to hold the ops and
the filters for the probes.
This is the first step to accomplish this. Instead of having the private
data of the probe ops point to the trace_array, create a separate list that
the trace_array holds. There's only one private_data for a probe, we need

Instead it will receive its own "ops" function, in which it can set up its
own data that it needs to map.

If one of the events within a system fails to enable when "1" is written
to the system "enable" file, it should return an error. Note, some events
may still be enabled, but the user should know that something did go wrong.

Currently, when tracepoint_printk is set (enabled by the "tp_printk" kernel
command line), it causes trace events to print via printk(). This is a very
dangerous operation, but is useful for debugging.
The issue is, it's seldom used, but it is always checked even if it's not
enabled by the kernel command line. Instead of having this feature called by
a branch against a variable, turn that variable into a static key, and this
will remove the test and jump.
To simplify things, the functions output_printk() and
trace_event_buffer_commit() were moved from trace_events.c to trace.c.

The creation of the set_event_pid file was assigned to a variable "entry"
but that variable was never used. Ideally, it should be used to check if the
file was created and warn if it was not.
The files header_page, header_event should also be checked and a warning if
they fail to be created.
The "enable" file was moved up, as it is a more crucial file to have and a
hard failure (return -ENOMEM) should be returned if it is not created.

Because tracepoint callbacks are done with preemption enabled, the trace
events are always called with preempt disable due to the
rcu_read_lock_sched_notrace() in __DO_TRACE(). This causes the preempt count
shown in the recorded trace event to be inaccurate. It is always one more
that what the preempt_count was when the tracepoint was called.
If CONFIG_PREEMPT is enabled, subtract 1 from the preempt_count before
recording it in the trace buffer.

The addition of PIDs into a pid_list via the write operation of
set_event_pid is a bit complex. The same operation will be needed for
function tracing pids. Move the code into its own generic function in
trace.c, so that we can avoid duplication of this code.

To allow other aspects of ftrace to use the pid_list logic, we need to reuse
the seq_file functions. Making the generic part into functions that can be
called by other files will help in this regard.

As the filtered_pid functions are going to be used by function tracer as
well as trace_events, move the code into the generic trace.c file.
The functions moved are:
trace_find_filtered_pid()
trace_ignore_this_task()
trace_filter_add_remove_task()
Kernel Doc text was also added.

Make the functions used for pid filtering global for tracing, such that the
function tracer can use the pid code as well.

1) With the changing of the code for filtering events by pid, from
a list of pids to a bitmask, we can now easily implement following
forks. With a new tracing option "event-fork" which, when set, will
have tasks with pids in set_event_pid, when they fork, to have their
child pids added to set_event_pid and the child will be traced as well.
Note, if "event-fork" is set and a task with its pid in set_event_pid
exits, its pid will be removed from set_event_pid
2) The addition of Tom Zanussi's hist triggers. This includes a very
thorough documentatino on how to use the hist triggers with events.
This introduces a quick and easy way to get histogram data from
events and their fields.
Some other cleanups and updates were added as well. Like Masami Hiramatsu
added test cases for the event trigger and hist triggers. Also I added
a speed up of filtering by using a temp buffer when filters are set.

In netdevice.h we removed the structure in net-next that is being

The mlx5 conflicts have to do with vxlan support dependencies.

Filtering of events requires the data to be written to the ring buffer
before it can be decided to filter or not. This is because the parameters of
the filter are based on the result that is written to the ring buffer and
not on the parameters that are passed into the trace functions.
The ftrace ring buffer is optimized for writing into the ring buffer and
committing. The discard procedure used when filtering decides the event
should be discarded is much more heavy weight. Thus, using a temporary
filter when filtering events can speed things up drastically.
Without a temp buffer we have:
# trace-cmd start -p nop
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
0.790706626 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.71% )
# trace-cmd start -e all
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.566904059 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.27% )
# trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count==20'
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.690598511 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.19% )
# trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count!=20'
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.707486364 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.30% )
The first run above is without any tracing, just to get a based figure.
hackbench takes ~0.79 seconds to run on the system.
The second run enables tracing all events where nothing is filtered. This
increases the time by 100% and hackbench takes 1.57 seconds to run.
The third run filters all events where the preempt count will equal "20"
(this should never happen) thus all events are discarded. This takes 1.69
seconds to run. This is 10% slower than just committing the events!
The last run enables all events and filters where the filter will commit all
events, and this takes 1.70 seconds to run. The filtering overhead is
approximately 10%. Thus, the discard and commit of an event from the ring
buffer may be about the same time.
With this patch, the numbers change:
# trace-cmd start -p nop
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
0.778233033 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.38% )
# trace-cmd start -e all
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.582102692 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.28% )
# trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count==20'
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.309230710 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.22% )
# trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count!=20'
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.786001924 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.20% )
The first run is again the base with no tracing.
The second run is all tracing with no filtering. It is a little slower, but
that may be well within the noise.
The third run shows that discarding all events only took 1.3 seconds. This
is a speed up of 23%! The discard is much faster than even the commit.
The one downside is shown in the last run. Events that are not discarded by
the filter will take longer to add, this is due to the extra copy of the
event.
