Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 0f72e37e42 tracing: Add sched_wakeup_new and sched_waking tracepoints for pid filter
The set_event_pid filter relies on attaching to the sched_switch and
sched_wakeup tracepoints to see if it should filter the tracing on schedule
tracepoints. By adding the callbacks to sched_wakeup, pids in the
set_event_pid file will trace the wakeups of those tasks with those pids.

But sched_wakeup_new and sched_waking were missed. These two should also be
traced. Luckily, these tracepoints share the same class as sched_wakeup
which means they can use the same pre and post callbacks as sched_wakeup
does.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) bd1b7cd360 ring-buffer: Put back the length if crossed page with add_timestamp
Commit fcc742eaad "ring-buffer: Add event descriptor to simplify passing
data" added a descriptor that holds various data instead of passing around
several variables through parameters. The problem was that one of the
parameters was modified in a function and the code was designed not to have
an effect on that modified  parameter. Now that the parameter is a
descriptor and any modifications to it are non-volatile, the size of the
data could be unnecessarily expanded.

Remove the extra space added if a timestamp was added and the event went
across the page.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) b81f472a20 ring-buffer: Update read stamp with first real commit on page
Do not update the read stamp after swapping out the reader page from the
write buffer. If the reader page is swapped out of the buffer before an
event is written to it, then the read_stamp may get an out of date
timestamp, as the page timestamp is updated on the first commit to that
page.

rb_get_reader_page() only returns a page if it has an event on it, otherwise
it will return NULL. At that point, check if the page being returned has
events and has not been read yet. Then at that point update the read_stamp
to match the time stamp of the reader page.

Linus Torvalds 0e97606425 This contains three more clean up patches.
One patch is needed to make tracing work without debugfs now that tracing
 uses its own tracefs.
 
 The second is removing an unused variable.
 
 The third is fixing a warning about unused variables when MAX_TRACER is
 not configured. Note, this warning shows up in gcc 6.0, but does not show
 up in gcc 4.9, as it seems that gcc does not complain about constants
 not being used.

Steven Rostedt a31d82d85a bpf_trace: Make dependent on PERF_EVENTS
Arnd Bergmann reported:

  In my ARM randconfig tests, I'm getting a build error for
  newly added code in bpf_perf_event_read and bpf_perf_event_output
  whenever CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is disabled:

  kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c: In function 'bpf_perf_event_read':
  kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:203:11: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'oncpu'
  if (event->oncpu != smp_processor_id() ||
           ^
  kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:204:11: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'pmu'
        event->pmu->count)

  This can happen when UPROBE_EVENT is enabled but KPROBE_EVENT
  is disabled. I'm not sure if that is a configuration we care
  about, otherwise we could prevent this case from occuring by
  adding Kconfig dependencies.

Looking at this further, it's really that UPROBE_EVENT enables PERF_EVENTS.
By just having BPF_EVENTS depend on PERF_EVENTS, then all is fine.

Dmitry Safonov 03e88ae6b3 tracing: Remove unused ftrace_cpu_disabled per cpu variable
Since the ring buffer is lockless, there is no need to disable ftrace on
CPU. And no one doing so: after commit 68179686ac ("tracing: Remove
ftrace_disable/enable_cpu()") ftrace_cpu_disabled stays the same after
initialization, nothing changes it.
ftrace_cpu_disabled shouldn't be used by any external module since it
disables only function and graph_function tracers but not any other
tracer.

    options after enabling the tracer. Now they are in the options/ directory
    even when the tracer is not active. Although they are still only visible
    when the tracer is active in the trace_options file.
 
  o Trace options are now per instance (although some of the tracer specific
    options are global)
 
  o New tracefs file: set_event_pid. If any pid is added to this file, then
    all events in the instance will filter out events that are not part of
    this pid. sched_switch and sched_wakeup events handle next and the wakee
    pids.

Jiaxing Wang 8b1291994d tracing: Make tracing work when debugfs is not configured in
Currently tracing_init_dentry() returns -ENODEV when debugfs is not
configured in, which causes tracefs not populated with tracing files and
directories, so we will get an empty directory even after we manually
mount tracefs.

We can make tracing_init_dentry() return NULL if debugfs is not
configured in and can manually mount tracefs. But return -ENODEV
if debugfs is configured in but not initialized or failed to create
automount point as that would break backward compatibility with older
tools.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 43ed384339 tracing: Put back comma for empty fields in boot string parsing
Both early_enable_events() and apply_trace_boot_options() parse a boot
string that may get parsed later on. They both use strsep() which converts a
comma into a nul character. To still allow the boot string to be parsed
again the same way, the nul character gets converted back to a comma after
the token is processed.

The problem is that these two functions check for an empty parameter (two
commas in a row ",,"), and continue the loop if the parameter is empty, but
fails to place the comma back. In this case, the second parsing will end at
this blank field, and not process fields afterward.

In most cases, users should not have an empty field, but if its going to be
checked, the code might as well be correct.

Jiaxing Wang a4d1e68823 tracing: Apply tracer specific options from kernel command line.
Currently, the trace_options parameter is only applied in
tracer_alloc_buffers() when global_trace.current_trace is nop_trace,
so a tracer specific option will not be applied even when the specific
tracer is also enabled from kernel command line. For example, the
'func_stack_trace' option can't be enabled with the following kernel
parameter:

  ftrace=function ftrace_filter=kfree trace_options=func_stack_trace

We can enable tracer specific options by simply apply the options again
if the specific tracer is also supplied from command line and started
in register_tracer().

To make trace_boot_options_buf can be parsed again, a comma and a space
is put back if they were replaced by strsep and strstrip respectively.

Petr Mladek f47cb66df2 ring_buffer: Fix more races when terminating the producer in the benchmark
The commit b44754d826 ("ring_buffer: Allow to exit the ring
buffer benchmark immediately") added a hack into ring_buffer_producer()
that set @kill_test when kthread_should_stop() returned true. It improved
the situation a lot. It stopped the kthread in most cases because
the producer spent most of the time in the patched while cycle.

But there are still few possible races when kthread_should_stop()
is set outside of the cycle. Then we do not set @kill_test and
some other checks pass.

This patch adds a better fix. It renames @test_kill/TEST_KILL() into
a better descriptive @test_error/TEST_ERROR(). Also it introduces
break_test() function that checks for both @test_error and
kthread_should_stop().

The new function is used in the producer when the check for @test_error
is not enough. It is not used in the consumer because its state
is manipulated by the producer via the "reader_finish" variable.

Also we add a missing check into ring_buffer_producer_thread()
between setting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and calling schedule_timeout().
Otherwise, we might miss a wakeup from kthread_stop().

Petr Mladek 8b46ff6938 ring_buffer: Do no not complete benchmark reader too early
It seems that complete(&read_done) might be called too early
in some situations.

1st scenario:
-------------

CPU0					CPU1

ring_buffer_producer_thread()
  wake_up_process(consumer);
  wait_for_completion(&read_start);

					ring_buffer_consumer_thread()
					  complete(&read_start);

  ring_buffer_producer()
    # producing data in
    # the do-while cycle

					  ring_buffer_consumer();
					    # reading data
					    # got error
					    # set kill_test = 1;
					    set_current_state(
						TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
					    if (reader_finish)  # false
					    schedule();

    # producer still in the middle of
    # do-while cycle
    if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval))
      wake_up_process(consumer);

					    # spurious wakeup
					    while (!reader_finish &&
						   !kill_test)
					    # leaving because
					    # kill_test == 1
					    reader_finish = 0;
					    complete(&read_done);

1st BANG: We might access uninitialized "read_done" if this is the
	  the first round.

    # producer finally leaving
    # the do-while cycle because kill_test == 1;

    if (consumer) {
      reader_finish = 1;
      wake_up_process(consumer);
      wait_for_completion(&read_done);

2nd BANG: This will never complete because consumer already did
	  the completion.

2nd scenario:
-------------

CPU0					CPU1

ring_buffer_producer_thread()
  wake_up_process(consumer);
  wait_for_completion(&read_start);

					ring_buffer_consumer_thread()
					  complete(&read_start);

  ring_buffer_producer()
    # CPU3 removes the module	  <--- difference from
    # and stops producer          <--- the 1st scenario
    if (kthread_should_stop())
      kill_test = 1;

					  ring_buffer_consumer();
					    while (!reader_finish &&
						   !kill_test)
					    # kill_test == 1 => we never go
					    # into the top level while()
					    reader_finish = 0;
					    complete(&read_done);

    # producer still in the middle of
    # do-while cycle
    if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval))
      wake_up_process(consumer);

					    # spurious wakeup
					    while (!reader_finish &&
						   !kill_test)
					    # leaving because kill_test == 1
					    reader_finish = 0;
					    complete(&read_done);

BANG: We are in the same "bang" situations as in the 1st scenario.

Root of the problem:
--------------------

ring_buffer_consumer() must complete "read_done" only when "reader_finish"
variable is set. It must not be skipped due to other conditions.

Note that we still must keep the check for "reader_finish" in a loop
because there might be spurious wakeups as described in the
above scenarios.

Solution:
----------

The top level cycle in ring_buffer_consumer() will finish only when
"reader_finish" is set. The data will be read in "while-do" cycle
so that they are not read after an error (kill_test == 1)
or a spurious wake up.

In addition, "reader_finish" is manipulated by the producer thread.
Therefore we add READ_ONCE() to make sure that the fresh value is
read in each cycle. Also we add the corresponding barrier
to synchronize the sleep check.

Next we set the state back to TASK_RUNNING for the situation where we
did not sleep.

Just from paranoid reasons, we initialize both completions statically.
This is safer, in case there are other races that we are unaware of.

As a side effect we could remove the memory barrier from
ring_buffer_producer_thread(). IMHO, this was the reason for
the barrier. ring_buffer_reset() uses spin locks that should
provide the needed memory barrier for using the buffer.

AKASHI Takahiro bb99d8ccec tracing: Allow arch-specific stack tracer
A stack frame may be used in a different way depending on cpu architecture.
Thus it is not always appropriate to slurp the stack contents, as current
check_stack() does, in order to calcurate a stack index (height) at a given
function call. At least not on arm64.
In addition, there is a possibility that we will mistakenly detect a stale
stack frame which has not been overwritten.

This patch makes check_stack() a weak function so as to later implement
arch-specific version.

There's no need to record the time tracepoints take when tracing is off.
This is because:
1) We cannot see these records since ring_buffer record is off at that
moment.
2) If tracing is off and benchmark tracepoint is enabled, the time
tracepoint takes is fewer than the same situation when tracing is on,
since the tracepoints need to be wrote into ring_buffer, it would
take more time. If turn on tracing at this moment, the average and
standard deviation cannot exactly present the time that tracepoints
take to write data into ring_buffer.

Davidlohr Bueso cdea01b2bf blktrace: re-write setting q->blk_trace
This is really about simplifying the double xchg patterns into
a single cmpxchg, with the same logic. Other than the immediate
cleanup, there are some subtleties this change deals with:

(i) While the load of the old bt is fully ordered wrt everything,
ie:

        old_bt = xchg(&q->blk_trace, bt);             [barrier]
        if (old_bt)
	     (void) xchg(&q->blk_trace, old_bt);    [barrier]

blk_trace could still be changed between the xchg and the old_bt
load. Note that this description is merely theoretical and afaict
very small, but doing everything in a single context with cmpxchg
closes this potential race.

(ii) Ordering guarantees are obviously kept with cmpxchg.

(iii) Gets rid of the hacky-by-nature (void)xchg pattern.

all the events enabled in the tracing instance that match the pids listed.

Two probes are added to both sched_switch and sched_wakeup tracepoints to be

The first is used to set the necessary flags to let the probes know to test
if they should be traced or not.

The sched_switch pre probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if neither the
previous or next task has a matching pid.

The sched_switch probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if the next task
does not match the matching pid.

The pre probe allows for probes tracing sched_switch to be traced if
necessary.

The sched_wakeup pre probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if neither the
current task nor the wakee task has a matching pid.

The sched_wakeup post probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if the current
task does not have a matching pid.

This helper is used to send raw data from eBPF program into
special PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE/PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT perf_event.
User space needs to perf_event_open() it (either for one or all cpus) and
store FD into perf_event_array (similar to bpf_perf_event_read() helper)
before eBPF program can send data into it.

Today the programs triggered by kprobe collect the data and either store
it into the maps or print it via bpf_trace_printk() where latter is the debug
facility and not suitable to stream the data. This new helper replaces
such bpf_trace_printk() usage and allows programs to have dedicated
channel into user space for post-processing of the raw data collected.

spinlocks and stack tracing an NMI gives the possibility of causing a
deadlock. Although this is safe on x86_64, because it does not perform stack
traces when the task struct stack is not in use (interrupts and NMIs), it
may be an issue for NMIs on i386 and other archs that use the same stack as
the NMI.

Dmitry Safonov 0b507e1ed1 ftrace: add module globbing
Extend module command for function filter selection with globbing.
It uses the same globbing as function filter.

  sh# echo '*alloc*:mod:*' > set_ftrace_filter

Will trace any function with the letters 'alloc' in the name in any
module but not in kernel.

  sh# echo '!*alloc*:mod:ipv6' >> set_ftrace_filter

Will prevent from tracing functions with 'alloc' in the name from module
ipv6 (do not forget to append to set_ftrace_filter file).

  sh# echo '*alloc*:mod:!ipv6' > set_ftrace_filter

Will trace functions with 'alloc' in the name from kernel and any
module except ipv6.

  sh# echo '*alloc*:mod:!*' > set_ftrace_filter

Will trace any function with the letters 'alloc' in the name only from
kernel, but not from any module.

  sh# echo '*:mod:!*' > set_ftrace_filter
or
  sh# echo ':mod:!' > set_ftrace_filter

Will trace every function in the kernel, but will not trace functions
from any module.

  sh# echo '*:mod:*' > set_ftrace_filter
or
  sh# echo ':mod:' > set_ftrace_filter

As the opposite will trace all functions from all modules, but not from
kernel.

  sh# echo '*:mod:*snd*' > set_ftrace_filter

Will trace your sound drivers only (if any).

Dmitry Safonov 3ba0092971 ftrace: Introduce ftrace_glob structure
ftrace_match parameters are very related and I reduce the number of local
variables & parameters with it.
This is also preparation for module globbing as it would introduce more
realated variables & parameters.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) a2d7629048 tracing: Have stack tracer force RCU to be watching
The stack tracer was triggering the WARN_ON() in module.c:

 static void module_assert_mutex_or_preempt(void)
 {
 #ifdef CONFIG_LOCKDEP
	if (unlikely(!debug_locks))
		return;

	WARN_ON(!rcu_read_lock_sched_held() &&
		!lockdep_is_held(&module_mutex));
 #endif
 }

The reason is that the stack tracer traces all function calls, and some of
those calls happen while exiting or entering user space and idle. Some of
these functions are called after RCU had already stopped watching, as RCU
does not watch userspace or idle CPUs.

If a max stack is hit, then the save_stack_trace() is called, which will
check module addresses and call module_assert_mutex_or_preempt(), and then
trigger the warning. Sad part is, the warning itself will also do a stack
trace and tigger the same warning. That probably should be fixed.

The warning was added by 0be964be0d "module: Sanitize RCU usage and
locking" but this bug has probably been around longer. But it's unlikely to
cause much harm, but the new warning causes the system to lock up.
