- Add missing LOCKDOWN checks for eventfs callers
When LOCKDOWN is active for tracing, it causes inconsistent state
when some functions succeed and others fail.
- Use dput() to free the top level eventfs descriptor
There was a race between accesses and freeing it.
- Fix a long standing bug that eventfs exposed due to changing timings
by dynamically creating files. That is, If a event file is opened
for an instance, there's nothing preventing the instance from being
removed which will make accessing the files cause use-after-free bugs.
- Fix a ring buffer race that happens when iterating over the ring
buffer while writers are active. Check to make sure not to read
the event meta data if it's beyond the end of the ring buffer sub buffer.
- Fix the print trigger that disappeared because the test to create it
was looking for the event dir field being filled, but now it has the
"ef" field filled for the eventfs structure.
- Remove the unused "dir" field from the event structure.
- Fix the order of the trace_dynamic_info as it had it backwards for the
offset and len fields for which one was for which endianess.
- Fix NULL pointer dereference with eventfs_remove_rec()
If an allocation fails in one of the eventfs_add_*() functions,
the caller of it in event_subsystem_dir() or event_create_dir()
assigns the result to the structure. But it's assigning the ERR_PTR
and not NULL. This was passed to eventfs_remove_rec() which expects
either a good pointer or a NULL, not ERR_PTR. The fix is to not
assign the ERR_PTR to the structure, but to keep it NULL on error.
- Fix list_for_each_rcu() to use list_for_each_srcu() in
dcache_dir_open_wrapper(). One iteration of the code used RCU
but because it had to call sleepable code, it had to be changed
to use SRCU, but one of the iterations was missed.
- Fix synthetic event print function to use "as_u64" instead of
passing in a pointer to the union. To fix big/little endian issues,
the u64 that represented several types was turned into a union to
define the types properly.
