When a max stack trace is discovered, the stack dump is saved. In order to
not record the overhead of the stack tracer, the ip of the traced function
is looked for within the dump. The trace is started from the location of
that function. But if for some reason the ip is not found, the entire stack
trace is then truncated. That's not very useful. Instead, print everything
if the ip of the traced function is not found within the trace.
This issue showed up on s390.

The first is a cut and paste issue that changed the amount of stack
to skip when tracing a stack dump from 0 to 6, which basically made
the stack disappear for small stack traces.
The second fix is just removing an unused field in a struct that is no
longer used, and currently just wastes space.
The third is another cut-and-paste fix that had a tracepoint recording
the wrong field (it was recording the previous field a second time).

We hit ftrace_bug report when booting Android on a 64bit ATOM SOC chip.
Basically, there is a race between insmod and ftrace_run_update_code.
After load_module=>ftrace_module_init, another thread jumps in to call
ftrace_run_update_code=>ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare
=>set_all_modules_text_rw, to change all modules
as RW. Since the new module is at MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, the text attribute
is not changed. Then, the 2nd thread goes ahead to change codes.
However, load_module continues to call complete_formation=>set_section_ro_nx,
then 2nd thread would fail when probing the module's TEXT.
The patch fixes it by using notifier to delay the enabling of ftrace
records to the time when module is at state MODULE_STATE_COMING.

Qiu Peiyang pointed out that there's a race when enabling function tracing
and loading a module. In order to make the modifications of converting nops
in the prologue of functions into callbacks, the text needs to be converted
from read-only to read-write. When enabling function tracing, the text
permission is updated, the functions are modified, and then they are put
back.
When loading a module, the updates to convert function calls to mcount is
done before the module text is set to read-only. But after it is done, the
module text is visible by the function tracer. Thus we have the following
race:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
start function tracing
set text to read-write
load_module
add functions to ftrace
set module text read-only
update all functions to callbacks
modify module functions too
< Can't it's read-only >
When this happens, ftrace detects the issue and disables itself till the
next reboot.
To fix this, a new DISABLED flag is added for ftrace records, which all
module functions get when they are added. Then later, after the module code
is all set, the records will have the DISABLED flag cleared, and they will
be enabled if any callback wants all functions to be traced.
Note, this doesn't add the delay to later. It simply changes the
ftrace_module_init() to do both the setting of DISABLED records, and then
immediately calls the enable code. This helps with testing this new code as
it has the same behavior as previously. Another change will come after this
to have the ftrace_module_enable() called after the text is set to
read-only.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
When the first time find_next calls find_next_mod_format, it should
iterate the trace_bprintk_fmt_list to find the first print format of
the module. However in current code, start_index is smaller than *pos
at first, and code will not iterate the list. Latter container_of will
get the wrong address with former v, which will cause mod_fmt be a
meaningless object and so is the returned mod_fmt->fmt.
This patch will fix it by correcting the start_index. After fixed,
when the first time calls find_next_mod_format, start_index will be
equal to *pos, and code will iterate the trace_bprintk_fmt_list to
get the right module printk format, so is the returned mod_fmt->fmt.

Jiri Olsa noted that the change to replace the control_ops did not update
the trampoline for when running perf on a single CPU and with CONFIG_PREEMPT
disabled (where dynamic ops, like perf, can use trampolines directly). The
result was that perf function could be called when RCU is not watching as
well as not handle the ftrace_local_disable().
Modify the ftrace_ops_get_func() to also check the RCU and PER_CPU ops flags
and use the recursive function if they are set. The recursive function is
modified to check those flags and execute the appropriate checks if they are
set.

Currently perf has its own list function within the ftrace infrastructure
that seems to be used only to allow for it to have per-cpu disabling as well
as a check to make sure that it's not called while RCU is not watching. It
uses something called the "control_ops" which is used to iterate over ops
under it with the control_list_func().
The problem is that this control_ops and control_list_func unnecessarily
complicates the code. By replacing FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL with two new flags
(FTRACE_OPS_FL_RCU and FTRACE_OPS_FL_PER_CPU) we can remove all the code
that is special with the control ops and add the needed checks within the
generic ftrace_list_func().

When showing all tramps registered to a ftrace record in the file
enabled_functions, it exits the loop with ops == NULL. But then it is
suppose to show the function on the ops->trampoline and
add_trampoline_func() is called with the given ops. But because ops is now
NULL (to exit the loop), it always shows the static trampoline instead of
the one that is really registered to the record.
The call to add_trampoline_func() that shows the trampoline for the given
ops needs to be called at every iteration.

But sched_wakeup_new and sched_waking were missed. These two should also be

When an anomaly is found while modifying function code, ftrace_bug() is
called which disables the function tracing infrastructure and reports
information about what failed. If the code that is to be replaced does not
match what is expected, then actual code is shown. Currently there is no
arch generic way to show what was expected.
Add a new variable pointer calld ftrace_expected that the arch code can set
to point to what it expected so that ftrace_bug() can report the actual text
as well as the text that was expected to be there.

The ftrace function hook utility has several internal checks to make sure
that whatever it modifies is exactly what it expects to be modifying. This
is essential as modifying running code can be extremely dangerous to the
system.
When an anomaly is detected, ftrace_bug() is called which sends a splat to
the console and disables function tracing. There's some extra information
that is printed to help diagnose the issue.
One thing that is missing though is output of what ftrace was doing at the
time of the crash. Was it updating a call site or perhaps converting a call
site to a nop? A new global enum variable is created to state what ftrace
was doing at the time of the anomaly, and this is reported in ftrace_bug().

data could be unnecessarily expanded.

Do not update the read stamp after swapping out the reader page from the

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.

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.

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.

o Module globbing. You can now filter function tracing to several
modules. # echo '*:mod:*snd*' > set_ftrace_filter (Dmitry Safonov)
o Tracer specific options are now visible even when the tracer is not
active. It was rather annoying that you can only see and modify 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.

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.

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.

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.
Also make register_tracer() be __init to access the __init data, and
in fact register_tracer is only called from __init code.

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().

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()

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

reader_finish = 0;
complete(&read_done);
# producer still in the middle of

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

The kernel now has kstrdup_const/kfree_const for reusing .rodata
(typically string literals) when possible; there's no reason to
duplicate that logic in the tracing system. Moreover, as the comment
above core_kernel_data states, it may not always return true for
.rodata - that is for example the case on x86_64, where we thus end up
kstrdup'ing all the passed-in strings.
Arguably, testing for .rodata explicitly (as kstrdup_const does) is
also more correct: I don't think one is supposed to be able to change
the name after creating the event_subsystem by passing the address of
a static char (but non-const) array.

In preparation of having the multi buffer instances having their own trace

A new field is added to the trace_array descriptor called trace_flags_index,
which is a 32 byte character array representing a bit. This array is simply
filled with the index of the array, where
index_array[n] = n;
Then the address of this array is passed to the file callbacks instead of
the index of the flag index. Then to retrieve both the flag index and the
trace_array descriptor:
data is the passed in argument.
index = *(unsigned char *)data;
data -= index;
/* Now data points to the address of the array in the trace_array */

In preparation to make trace options per instance, the global trace_flags
needs to be moved from being a global variable to a field within the trace
instance trace_array structure.
There's still more work to do, as there's some functions that use
trace_flags without passing in a way to get to the current_trace array. For
those, the global_trace is used directly (from trace.c). This includes
setting and clearing the trace_flags. This means that when a new instance is
created, it just gets the trace_flags of the global_trace and will not be
able to modify them. Depending on the functions that have access to the
trace_array, the flags of an instance may not affect parts of its trace,
where the global_trace is used. These will be fixed in future changes.

There are options that are unique to a specific tracer (like function and
function graph). Currently, these options are only visible in the options
directory when the tracer is enabled.
This has been a pain, especially for something like the func_stack_trace
option that if used inappropriately, could bring the system to a crawl. But
the only way to see it, is to enable the function tracer.
For example, if one had done:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo __schedule > set_ftrace_filter
# echo 1 > options/func_stack_trace
# echo function > current_tracer
The __schedule call will be traced and a stack trace will also be recorded
there. Now when you were done, you may do...
# echo nop > current_tracer
# echo > set_ftrace_filter
But you forgot to disable the func_stack_trace. The only way to disable it
is to re-enable function tracing first. If you do not add a filter to
set_ftrace_filter and just do:
# echo function > current_tracer
Now you would be performing a stack trace on *every* function! On some
systems, that causes a live lock. Others may take a few minutes to fix your
mistake.
Having the func_stack_trace option visible allows you to check it and
disable it before enabling the funtion tracer.

Use a cute little macro trick to keep the names of the trace flags file
guaranteed to match the corresponding masks.
The macro TRACE_FLAGS is defined as a serious of enum names followed by
the string name of the file that matches it. For example:
#define TRACE_FLAGS \
C(PRINT_PARENT, "print-parent"), \
C(SYM_OFFSET, "sym-offset"), \
C(SYM_ADDR, "sym-addr"), \
C(VERBOSE, "verbose"),
Now we can define the following:
#undef C
#define C(a, b) TRACE_ITER_##a##_BIT
enum trace_iterator_bits { TRACE_FLAGS };
The above creates:
enum trace_iterator_bits {
TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT_BIT,
TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET_BIT,
TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT,
TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE_BIT,
};
Then we can redefine C as:
#undef C
#define C(a, b) TRACE_ITER_##a = (1 << TRACE_ITER_##a##_BIT)
enum trace_iterator_flags { TRACE_FLAGS };
Which creates:
enum trace_iterator_flags {
TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT = (1 << TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT_BIT),
TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET = (1 << TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET_BIT),
TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR = (1 << TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT),
TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE = (1 << TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE_BIT),
};
Then finally we can create the list of file names:
#undef C
#define C(a, b) b
static const char *trace_options[] = {
TRACE_FLAGS
NULL
};
Which creates:
static const char *trace_options[] = {
"print-parent",
"sym-offset",
"sym-addr",
"verbose",
NULL
};
The importance of this is that the strings match the bit index.
trace_options[TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT] == "sym-addr"

Merge tag 'trace-v4.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing update from Steven Rostedt:
"Mostly this is just clean ups and micro optimizations.
The changes with more meat are:
- Allowing the trace event filters to filter on CPU number and
process ids
- Two new markers for trace output latency were added (10 and 100
msec latencies)
- Have tracing_thresh filter function profiling time
I also worked on modifying the ring buffer code for some future work,
and moved the adding of the timestamp around. One of my changes
caused a regression, and since other changes were built on top of it
and already tested, I had to operate a revert of that change. Instead
of rebasing, this change set has the code that caused a regression as
well as the code to revert that change without touching the other
changes that were made on top of it"

The commit a4543a2fa9 "ring-buffer: Get timestamp after event is
allocated" is needed for some future work. But after adding it, there is a
race somewhere that causes the saved timestamp to have a slight shift, and
get ahead of the actual timestamp and make it look like time goes backwards.
I'm still looking into why this happens, but in the mean time, this is
holding up other work to get in. I'm reverting the change for now (which
makes the problem go away), and will add it back after I know what is wrong
and fix it.

Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This first core part of the block IO changes contains:
- Cleanup of the bio IO error signaling from Christoph. We used to
rely on the uptodate bit and passing around of an error, now we
store the error in the bio itself.
- Improvement of the above from myself, by shrinking the bio size
down again to fit in two cachelines on x86-64.
- Revert of the max_hw_sectors cap removal from a revision again,
from Jeff Moyer. This caused performance regressions in various
tests. Reinstate the limit, bump it to a more reasonable size
instead.
- Make /sys/block/<dev>/queue/discard_max_bytes writeable, by me.
Most devices have huge trim limits, which can cause nasty latencies
when deleting files. Enable the admin to configure the size down.
We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX
sectors.
- Improvement of the SGP gaps logic from Keith Busch.
- Enable the block core to handle arbitrarily sized bios, which
enables a nice simplification of bio_add_page() (which is an IO hot
path). From Kent.
- Improvements to the partition io stats accounting, making it
faster. From Ming Lei.
- Also from Ming Lei, a basic fixup for overflow of the sysfs pending
file in blk-mq, as well as a fix for a blk-mq timeout race
condition.
- Ming Lin has been carrying Kents above mentioned patches forward
for a while, and testing them. Ming also did a few fixes around
that.
- Sasha Levin found and fixed a use-after-free problem introduced by
the bio->bi_error changes from Christoph.
- Small blk cgroup cleanup from Viresh Kumar"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change in this cycle is the rewrite of the main SMP load
balancing metric: the CPU load/utilization. The main goal was to make
the metric more precise and more representative - see the changelog of
this commit for the gory details:

It is done in a way that significantly reduces complexity of the code:
5 files changed, 249 insertions(+), 494 deletions(-)

need to keep an eye on potential regressions, since this potentially
affects every SMP workload in existence.

By extending the filter rules by more generic fields
we can write triggers filters like
echo 'stacktrace if cpu == 1' > \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
or
echo 'stacktrace if comm == sshd' > \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
CPU and COMM are not part of struct trace_entry. We could add the two
new fields to ftrace_common_field list and fix up all depending
sides. But that looks pretty ugly. Another thing I would like to
avoid that the 'format' file contents changes.
All this can be avoided by introducing another list which contains
non field members of struct trace_entry.

Mathieu reported that since 317f394160 ("sched: Move the second half
of ttwu() to the remote cpu") trace_sched_wakeup() can happen out of
context of the waker.
This is a problem when you want to analyse wakeup paths because it is
now very hard to correlate the wakeup event to whoever issued the
wakeup.
OTOH trace_sched_wakeup() is issued at the point where we set
p->state = TASK_RUNNING, which is right were we hand the task off to
the scheduler, so this is an important point when looking at
scheduling behaviour, up to here its been the wakeup path everything
hereafter is due to scheduler policy.
To bridge this gap, introduce a second tracepoint: trace_sched_waking.
It is guaranteed to be called in the waker context.

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.
So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

- An equal sign in mark selection function is removed to align code
behavior with comments and documentation.
- The function graph example related to delay in ftrace.txt is updated

Jungseok Lee noticed the following:
Currently, row's width of 7-digit duration numbers not aligned with
other cases like the following example.
3) $ 3999884 us | }
3) | finish_task_switch() {
3) 0.365 us | _raw_spin_unlock_irq();
3) 3.333 us | }
3) $ 3999976 us | }
3) $ 3999979 us | } /* schedule */
As adding a single white space in case of 7-digit numbers, the format
could be unified easily as follows.
3) $ 2237472 us | }
3) | finish_task_switch() {
3) 0.364 us | _raw_spin_unlock_irq();
3) 3.125 us | }
3) $ 2237556 us | }
3) $ 2237559 us | } /* schedule */
Instead of making a special case for 7-digit numbers, the logic
of the len and the space loop is slightly modified to make the
two cases have the same format.

Akashi Takahiro was porting the stack tracer to arm64 and found some
issues with it. One was that it repeats the top function, due to the
stack frame added by the mcount caller and added by itself. This
was added when fentry came in, and before fentry created its own stack
frame. But x86's fentry now creates its own stack frame, and there's
no need to insert the function again.
This also cleans up the code a bit, where it doesn't need to do something
special for fentry, and doesn't include insertion of a duplicate
entry for the called function being traced.

Now that events only add time extends after it is committed, in case
an event comes in before it can discard the allocated event, the time
extend needs to be stored within the event. If the event is bigger
than then size needed for the time extend, padding must be added.
The minimum padding size is 8 bytes. Thus if the event is 12 bytes
(size of time extend + 4), there will not be enough room to add both
the time extend and padding. Make sure all events are either 8 bytes
or 16 or more bytes.

Move the capturing of the timestamp to after an event is allocated.
If the event is not a commit (where it is an event that preempted
another event), then no timestamp is needed, because the delta of
nested events is always zero.
If the event starts on a new page, no delta needs to be calculated
as the full timestamp will be added to the page header, and the
event will have a delta of zero.
Now if the event requires a time extend (the delta does not fit
in the 27 bit delta slot in the header), then the event is discarded,
the length is extended to hold the TIME_EXTEND event that allows for
a 59 bit delta, and the commit is tried again.
If the event can't be discarded (another event came in after it),
then the TIME_EXTEND is added directly to the allocated event and
the rest of the event is given padding.

Fengguang Wu's tests triggered a bug in the branch tracer's start up
test when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT set. This was because that config
adds some debug logic in the per cpu field, which calls back into
the branch tracer.
The branch tracer has its own recursive checks, but uses a per cpu
variable to implement it. If retrieving the per cpu variable calls
back into the branch tracer, you can see how things will break.
Instead of using a per cpu variable, use the trace_recursion field
of the current task struct. Simply set a bit when entering the
branch tracing and clear it when leaving. If the bit is set on
entry, just don't do the tracing.
There's also the case with lockdep, as the local_irq_save() called
before the recursion can also trigger code that can call back into
the function. Changing that to a raw_local_irq_save() will protect
that as well.
This prevents the recursion and the inevitable crash that follows.

the ftrace* files, structures and variables that have to deal with
trace events.
Over the years I've had several developers tell me about their confusion
with what ftrace is compared to events. Technically, "ftrace" is the
infrastructure to do the function hooks, which include tracing and also
helps with live kernel patching. But the trace events are a separate
entity altogether, and the files that affect the trace events should
not be named "ftrace". These include:
include/trace/ftrace.h -> include/trace/trace_events.h
include/linux/ftrace_event.h -> include/linux/trace_events.h
Also, functions that are specific for trace events have also been renamed:
ftrace_print_*() -> trace_print_*()
(un)register_ftrace_event() -> (un)register_trace_event()
ftrace_event_name() -> trace_event_name()
ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled()-> trace_trigger_soft_disabled()
ftrace_define_fields_##call() -> trace_define_fields_##call()
ftrace_get_offsets_##call() -> trace_get_offsets_##call()
Structures have been renamed:
ftrace_event_file -> trace_event_file
ftrace_event_{call,class} -> trace_event_{call,class}
ftrace_event_buffer -> trace_event_buffer
ftrace_subsystem_dir -> trace_subsystem_dir
ftrace_event_raw_##call -> trace_event_raw_##call
ftrace_event_data_offset_##call-> trace_event_data_offset_##call
ftrace_event_type_funcs_##call -> trace_event_type_funcs_##call
And a few various variables and flags have also been updated.
This has been sitting in linux-next for some time, and I have not heard
a single complaint about this rename breaking anything. Mostly because
these functions, variables and structures are mostly internal to the
tracing system and are seldom (if ever) used by anything external to that.

I could not come up with a situation where the operand counter (cnt)
could go below zero, so I added a WARN_ON_ONCE(cnt < 0). Vince was
able to trigger that warn on with his fuzzer test, but didn't have
a filter input that caused it.
Later, Sasha Levin was able to trigger that same warning, and was
able to give me the filter string that triggered it. It was simply
a single operation ">".
I wrapped the filtering code in a userspace program such that I could
single step through the logic. With a single operator the operand
counter can legitimately go below zero, and should be reported to the
user as an error, but should not produce a kernel warning. The
WARN_ON_ONCE(cnt < 0) should be just a "if (cnt < 0) break;" and the
code following it will produce the error message for the user.
While debugging this, I found that there was another bug that let
the pointer to the filter string go beyond the filter string.
This too was fixed.
Finally, there was a typo in a stub function that only gets compiled
if trace events is disabled but tracing is enabled (I'm not even sure
that's possible).

Yep, that's right: gcc isn't smart enough to realize that replacing '/' by
'_' cannot change the strlen(), so we call it again and again (at least
when a '/' is found). Even if gcc were that smart, this construction
would still loop over the string twice, once for the initial strlen() call
and then the open-coded loop.
Let's simply use strreplace() instead.

While debugging a WARN_ON() for filtering, I found that it is possible
for the filter string to be referenced after its end. With the filter:
# echo '>' > /sys/kernel/debug/events/ext4/ext4_truncate_exit/filter
The filter_parse() function can call infix_get_op() which calls
infix_advance() that updates the infix filter pointers for the cnt
and tail without checking if the filter is already at the end, which
will put the cnt to zero and the tail beyond the end. The loop then calls
infix_next() that has
ps->infix.cnt--;
return ps->infix.string[ps->infix.tail++];
The cnt will now be below zero, and the tail that is returned is
already passed the end of the filter string. So far the allocation
of the filter string usually has some buffer that is zeroed out, but
if the filter string is of the exact size of the allocated buffer
there's no guarantee that the charater after the nul terminating
character will be zero.
Luckily, only root can write to the filter.

When testing the fix for the trace filter, I could not come up with
a scenario where the operand count goes below zero, so I added a
WARN_ON_ONCE(cnt < 0) to the logic. But there is legitimate case
that it can happen (although the filter would be wrong).
# echo '>' > /sys/kernel/debug/events/ext4/ext4_truncate_exit/filter
That is, a single operation without any operands will hit the path
where the WARN_ON_ONCE() can trigger. Although this is harmless,
and the filter is reported as a error. But instead of spitting out
a warning to the kernel dmesg, just fail nicely and report it via
the proper channels.

Worse yet, reading the error message (the filter again) it says that
there was no error, when there clearly was. The issue is that the
code that checks the input does not check for balanced ops. That is,
having an op between a closed parenthesis and the next token.
This would only cause a warning, and fail out before doing any real
harm, but it should still not caues a warning, and the error reported

It takes a while until the ring_buffer_benchmark module is removed
when the ring buffer hammer is running. It is because it takes
few seconds and kthread_should_stop() is not being checked.
This patch adds the check for kthread termination into the producer.
It uses the existing @kill_test flag to finish the kthreads as
cleanly as possible.
It disables printing the "ERROR" message when the kthread is going.
It makes sure that producer does not go into the 10sec sleep
when it is being killed.
Finally, it does not call wait_to_die() when kthread_should_stop()
already returns true.

The tracing_off_permanent() call is a way to disable all ring_buffers.
Nothing uses it and nothing should use it, as tracing_off() and
friends are better, as they disable the ring buffers related to
tracing. The tracing_off_permanent() even disabled non tracing
ring buffers. This is a bit drastic, and was added to handle NMIs
doing outputs that could corrupt the ring buffer when only tracing
used them. It is now obsolete and adds a little overhead, it should
be removed.
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Currently, if an NMI does a dump of a ring buffer, it disables
all ring buffers from ever doing any writes again. This is because
it wont take the locks for the cpu_buffer and this can cause
corruption if it preempted a read, or a read happens on another
CPU for the current cpu buffer. This is a bit overkill.
First, it should at least try to take the lock, and if it fails
then disable it. Also, there's no need to disable all ring
buffers, even those that are unrelated to what is being read.
Only disable the per cpu ring buffer that is being read if
it can not get the lock for it.

The ring_buffer_write() function isn't protected by the trace recursive
writes. Luckily, this function is not used as much and is unlikely
to ever recurse. But it should still have the protection, because
even a call to ring_buffer_lock_reserve() could cause ring buffer
corruption if called when ring_buffer_write() is being used.

Currently the trace_recursive checks are only done if CONFIG_TRACING
is enabled. That was because there use to be a dependency with tracing
for the recursive checks (it used the task_struct trace recursive
variable). But now it uses its own variable and there is no dependency.
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Instead of using a global per_cpu variable to perform the recursive
checks into the ring buffer, use the already existing per_cpu descriptor
that is part of the ring buffer itself.
Not only does this simplify the code, it also allows for one ring buffer
to be used within the guts of the use of another ring buffer. For example
trace_printk() can now be used within the ring buffer to record changes
done by an instance into the main ring buffer. The recursion checks
will prevent the trace_printk() itself from causing recursive issues
with the main ring buffer (it is just ignored), but the recursive
checks wont prevent the trace_printk() from recording other ring buffers.

introduce bpf_tail_call(ctx, &jmp_table, index) helper function
which can be used from BPF programs like:
int bpf_prog(struct pt_regs *ctx)
{
...
bpf_tail_call(ctx, &jmp_table, index);
...
}
that is roughly equivalent to:
int bpf_prog(struct pt_regs *ctx)
{
...
if (jmp_table[index])
return (*jmp_table[index])(ctx);
...
}
The important detail that it's not a normal call, but a tail call.
The kernel stack is precious, so this helper reuses the current
stack frame and jumps into another BPF program without adding
extra call frame.
It's trivially done in interpreter and a bit trickier in JITs.
In case of x64 JIT the bigger part of generated assembler prologue
is common for all programs, so it is simply skipped while jumping.
Other JITs can do similar prologue-skipping optimization or
do stack unwind before jumping into the next program.
bpf_tail_call() arguments:
ctx - context pointer
jmp_table - one of BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY maps used as the jump table
index - index in the jump table
Since all BPF programs are idenitified by file descriptor, user space
need to populate the jmp_table with FDs of other BPF programs.
If jmp_table[index] is empty the bpf_tail_call() doesn't jump anywhere
and program execution continues as normal.
New BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY map type is introduced so that user space can
populate this jmp_table array with FDs of other bpf programs.
Programs can share the same jmp_table array or use multiple jmp_tables.
The chain of tail calls can form unpredictable dynamic loops therefore
tail_call_cnt is used to limit the number of calls and currently is set to 32.
Use cases:

==========
- simplify complex programs by splitting them into a sequence of small programs
- dispatch routine
For tracing and future seccomp the program may be triggered on all system
calls, but processing of syscall arguments will be different. It's more
efficient to implement them as:
int syscall_entry(struct seccomp_data *ctx)
{
bpf_tail_call(ctx, &syscall_jmp_table, ctx->nr /* syscall number */);
... default: process unknown syscall ...
}
int sys_write_event(struct seccomp_data *ctx) {...}
int sys_read_event(struct seccomp_data *ctx) {...}
syscall_jmp_table[__NR_write] = sys_write_event;
syscall_jmp_table[__NR_read] = sys_read_event;
For networking the program may call into different parsers depending on
packet format, like:
int packet_parser(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
... parse L2, L3 here ...
__u8 ipproto = load_byte(skb, ... offsetof(struct iphdr, protocol));
bpf_tail_call(skb, &ipproto_jmp_table, ipproto);
... default: process unknown protocol ...
}
int parse_tcp(struct __sk_buff *skb) {...}
int parse_udp(struct __sk_buff *skb) {...}
ipproto_jmp_table[IPPROTO_TCP] = parse_tcp;
ipproto_jmp_table[IPPROTO_UDP] = parse_udp;
- for TC use case, bpf_tail_call() allows to implement reclassify-like logic
- bpf_map_update_elem/delete calls into BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY jump table
are atomic, so user space can build chains of BPF programs on the fly
Implementation details:
=======================
- high performance of bpf_tail_call() is the goal.
It could have been implemented without JIT changes as a wrapper on top of
BPF_PROG_RUN() macro, but with two downsides:
. all programs would have to pay performance penalty for this feature and
tail call itself would be slower, since mandatory stack unwind, return,
stack allocate would be done for every tailcall.
. tailcall would be limited to programs running preempt_disabled, since
generic 'void *ctx' doesn't have room for 'tail_call_cnt' and it would
need to be either global per_cpu variable accessed by helper and by wrapper
or global variable protected by locks.
In this implementation x64 JIT bypasses stack unwind and jumps into the
callee program after prologue.
- bpf_prog_array_compatible() ensures that prog_type of callee and caller
are the same and JITed/non-JITed flag is the same, since calling JITed
program from non-JITed is invalid, since stack frames are different.
Similarly calling kprobe type program from socket type program is invalid.
- jump table is implemented as BPF_MAP_TYPE_PROG_ARRAY to reuse 'map'
abstraction, its user space API and all of verifier logic.
It's in the existing arraymap.c file, since several functions are
shared with regular array map.

Expose the NMI safe accessor to the monotonic raw clock to the
tracer. The mono clock was added with commit
1b3e5c0936. The advantage of the
monotonic raw clock is that it will advance more constantly than the
monotonic clock.
Imagine someone is trying to optimize a particular program to reduce
instructions executed for a given workload while minimizing the effect
on runtime. Also suppose that NTP is running and potentially making
larger adjustments to the monotonic clock. If NTP is adjusting the
monotonic clock to advance more rapidly, the program will appear to
use fewer instructions per second but run longer than if the monotonic
raw clock had been used. The total number of instructions observed
would be the same regardless of the clock source used, but how it's
attributed to time would be affected.
Conversely if NTP is adjusting the monotonic clock to advance more
slowly, the program will appear to use more instructions per second
but run more quickly. Of course there are many sources that can cause
jitter in performance measurements on modern processors, but let's
remove NTP from the list.
The monotonic raw clock can also be useful for tracing early boot,
e.g. when debugging issues with NTP.

The code that replaces the enum names with the enum values in the

character. This was caused by processing things like backslashes, quotes
and other tokens. After processing the tokens, a check for the nul
character needed to be done before continuing the loop, because the loop
incremented the pointer before doing the check, which could bypass the nul

There is a problem that trace events are not properly enabled with
boot cmdline. The problem is that if we pass "trace_event=kmem:mm_page_alloc"
to the boot cmdline, it enables all kmem trace events, and not just
the page_alloc event.
This is caused by the parsing mechanism. When we parse the cmdline, the buffer
contents is modified due to tokenization. And, if we use this buffer
again, we will get the wrong result.
Unfortunately, this buffer is be accessed three times to set trace events
properly at boot time. So, we need to handle this situation.
There is already code handling ",", but we need another for ":".
This patch adds it.

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Core kernel changes:
- One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability
to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed
by the kernel) to kprobes.
This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image
that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively.
(Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might
allow unprivileged use as well.)
(Alexei Starovoitov)
- Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this
allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock
sources for event timestamps traced via perf.
This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated
events with external events that were measured with different
clocks:
- cluster wide profiling
- for system wide tracing with user-space events,
- JIT profiling events
etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via
the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al.
(Peter Zijlstra)
Hardware enablement kernel changes:
- x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer
on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs.
The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space
ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added
to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the
necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous.
This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result.
A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT
driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU.
More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well -
will probably be ready by 4.2.
(Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra)
- x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware
feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and
allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads.
These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU
driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The
partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged
as a cgroup extension.)
(Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P
Waskiewicz Jr)
- x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell
feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus
tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it
via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option:
perf record --call-graph lbr
perf report
or:
perf top --call-graph lbr
This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf
based unwinding, but has some limitations:
- It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and
branch record can not be enabled at the same time.
- It is only available for user-space callchains.
(Yan, Zheng)
- x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and
event table fixes for earlier models.
(Andi Kleen)
- x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex
CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter
value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and
is transparent.

of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints.
Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called
__print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be
displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the
TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that
user space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data
and express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT()
macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty
much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's
because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values
by the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the
format file, and this makes it useless for user space tools.
The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings
in the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is
shown to user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently
has this in its format file:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
After adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
Its format file will contain this:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Some clean ups and small fixes, but the biggest change is the addition
of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints.
Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called
__print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be
displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the
TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that user
space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data and
express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT()
macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty
much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's
because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values by
the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the format
file, and this makes it useless for user space tools.
The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings in
the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is shown to
user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently has this
in its format file:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
After adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
Its format file will contain this:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })"

That was that perf hard coded the file system number when reading
/sys/kernel/debugfs/tracing directory making sure that the path had
the debugfs mount # before it would parse the tracing file. This broke
other use cases of perf, and the check is removed.
Now when mounting /sys/kernel/debug, tracefs is automatically mounted
in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing such that old tools will still see that
path as expected. But now system admins can mount tracefs directly
and not need to mount debugfs, which can expose security issues.
A new directory is created when tracefs is configured such that
system admins can now mount it separately (/sys/kernel/tracing).
This branch is based off of Al Viro's vfs debugfs_automount branch
at commit 163f9eb95a

Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or
__print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the
binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading
the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools
such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a
human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not
have access to what the ENUM is.
For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and
trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would
not be able to map it.
With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header
files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values:
By adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format
[...]
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })
The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to
be modified to parse them.

Dynamically allocated trampolines call ftrace_ops_get_func to get the
function which they should call. For dynamic fops (FTRACE_OPS_FL_DYNAMIC
flag is set) ftrace_ops_list_func is always returned. This is reasonable
for static trampolines but goes against the main advantage of dynamic
ones, that is avoidance of going through the list of all registered
callbacks for functions that are only being traced by a single callback.
We can fix it by returning ops->func (or recursion safe version) from
ftrace_ops_get_func whenever it is possible for dynamic trampolines.
Note that dynamic trampolines are not allowed for dynamic fops if
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.

So bpf_tracing.o depends on CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL - but that's not its only
dependency, it also depends on the tracing infrastructure and on kprobes,
without which it will fail to build with:
In file included from kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:14:0:
kernel/trace/trace.h: In function ‘trace_test_and_set_recursion’:
kernel/trace/trace.h:491:28: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member named ‘trace_recursion’
unsigned int val = current->trace_recursion;
[...]
It took quite some time to trigger this build failure, because right now
BPF_SYSCALL is very obscure, depends on CONFIG_EXPERT. So also make BPF_SYSCALL
more configurable, not just under CONFIG_EXPERT.
If BPF_SYSCALL, tracing and kprobes are enabled then enable the bpf_tracing
gateway as well.
We might want to make this an interactive option later on, although
I'd not complicate it unnecessarily: enabling BPF_SYSCALL is enough of
an indicator that the user wants BPF support.

Debugging of BPF programs needs some form of printk from the
program, so let programs call limited trace_printk() with %d %u
%x %p modifiers only.
Similar to kernel modules, during program load verifier checks
whether program is calling bpf_trace_printk() and if so, kernel
allocates trace_printk buffers and emits big 'this is debug
only' banner.

BPF programs, attached to kprobes, provide a safe way to execute
user-defined BPF byte-code programs without being able to crash or
hang the kernel in any way. The BPF engine makes sure that such
programs have a finite execution time and that they cannot break
out of their sandbox.
The user interface is to attach to a kprobe via the perf syscall:
struct perf_event_attr attr = {
.type = PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT,
.config = event_id,
...
};
event_fd = perf_event_open(&attr,...);
ioctl(event_fd, PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF, prog_fd);
'prog_fd' is a file descriptor associated with BPF program
previously loaded.
'event_id' is an ID of the kprobe created.
Closing 'event_fd':
close(event_fd);
... automatically detaches BPF program from it.
BPF programs can call in-kernel helper functions to:
- lookup/update/delete elements in maps
- probe_read - wraper of probe_kernel_read() used to access any
kernel data structures
BPF programs receive 'struct pt_regs *' as an input ('struct pt_regs' is
architecture dependent) and return 0 to ignore the event and 1 to store
kprobe event into the ring buffer.
Note, kprobes are a fundamentally _not_ a stable kernel ABI,
so BPF programs attached to kprobes must be recompiled for
every kernel version and user must supply correct LINUX_VERSION_CODE
in attr.kern_version during bpf_prog_load() call.

TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CALL_FILTER flag in ftrace:functon event can be

Now, the only place uses this flag is ftrace:function, but the filter of
ftrace:function has a different code path with events/syscalls and
events/tracepoints. It uses ftrace_filter_write() and perf's
ftrace_profile_set_filter() to set the filter, the functionality of file
'tracing/events/ftrace/function/filter' is bypassed in function
init_pred(), in which case, neither call->filter nor file->filter is
used.
So we can safely remove TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CALL_FILTER flag from
ftrace:function events.

It has come to my attention that this_cpu_read/write are horrible on
architectures other than x86. Worse yet, they actually disable
preemption or interrupts! This caused some unexpected tracing results
on ARM.
101.356868: preempt_count_add <-ring_buffer_lock_reserve
101.356870: preempt_count_sub <-ring_buffer_lock_reserve
The ring_buffer_lock_reserve has recursion protection that requires
accessing a per cpu variable. But since preempt_disable() is traced, it
too got traced while accessing the variable that is suppose to prevent
recursion like this.
The generic version of this_cpu_read() and write() are:
#define this_cpu_generic_read(pcp) \
({ typeof(pcp) ret__; \
preempt_disable(); \
ret__ = *this_cpu_ptr(&(pcp)); \
preempt_enable(); \
ret__; \
})
#define this_cpu_generic_to_op(pcp, val, op) \
do { \
unsigned long flags; \
raw_local_irq_save(flags); \
*__this_cpu_ptr(&(pcp)) op val; \
raw_local_irq_restore(flags); \
} while (0)
Which is unacceptable for locations that know they are within preempt
disabled or interrupt disabled locations.
Paul McKenney stated that __this_cpu_() versions produce much better code on
other architectures than this_cpu_() does, if we know that the call is done in
a preempt disabled location.
I also changed the recursive_unlock() to use two local variables instead
of accessing the per_cpu variable twice.

Some archs (specifically PowerPC), are sensitive with the ordering of
the enabling of the calls to function tracing and setting of the
function to use to be traced.
That is, update_ftrace_function() sets what function the ftrace_caller
trampoline should call. Some archs require this to be set before
calling ftrace_run_update_code().
Another bug was discovered, that ftrace_startup_sysctl() called
ftrace_run_update_code() directly. If the function the ftrace_caller
trampoline changes, then it will not be updated. Instead a call
to ftrace_startup_enable() should be called because it tests to see
if the callback changed since the code was disabled, and will
tell the arch to update appropriately. Most archs do not need this
notification, but PowerPC does.
The problem could be seen by the following commands:
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
The trace will show that function tracing was not active.

When ftrace is enabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if
ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the
FTRACE_START_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code(). Similarly, when
ftrace is disabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if
ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the
FTRACE_STOP_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code().
Consider the following situation.
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
After this ftrace_enabled = 0.
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
Since ftrace_enabled = 0, ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is never
called.
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
Now ftrace_enabled will be set to true, but still
ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() will not be called, which is not
desired.
Further if we execute the following after this:
# echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
Now since ftrace_enabled is set it will call
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller(), which causes a kernel warning on
the ARM platform.
On the ARM platform, when ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is called,
it checks whether the old instruction is a nop or not. If it's not a nop,
then it returns an error. If it is a nop then it replaces instruction at
that address with a branch to ftrace_graph_caller.
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() behaves just the opposite. Therefore,
if generic ftrace code ever calls either ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller()
or ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() consecutively two times in a row,
then it will return an error, which will cause the generic ftrace code to

Note, x86 does not have an issue with this because the architecture
specific code for ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() and
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() does not check the previous state,
and calling either of these functions twice in a row has no ill effect.

When /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all function
tracing is disabled. But the records that represent the functions
still hold information about the ftrace_ops that are hooked to them.
ftrace_ops may request "REGS" (have a full set of pt_regs passed to
the callback), or "TRAMP" (the ops has its own trampoline to use).
When the record is updated to represent the state of the ops hooked
to it, it sets "REGS_EN" and/or "TRAMP_EN" to state that the callback
points to the correct trampoline (REGS has its own trampoline).
When ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all ftrace locations are a nop,
so they do not point to any trampoline. But the _EN flags are still
set. This can cause the accounting to go wrong when ftrace_enabled
is cleared and an ops that has a trampoline is registered or unregistered.
For example, the following will cause ftrace to crash:
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
As function_graph uses a trampoline, when ftrace_enabled is set to zero
the updates to the record are not done. When enabling function_graph
again, the record will still have the TRAMP_EN flag set, and it will
look for an op that has a trampoline other than the function_graph
ops, and fail to find one.

When an application connects to the ring buffer via splice, it can only
read full pages. Splice does not work with partial pages. If there is
not enough data to fill a page, the splice command will either block
or return -EAGAIN (if set to nonblock).
Code was added where if the page is not full, to just sleep again.
The problem is, it will get woken up again on the next event. That
is, when something is written into the ring buffer, if there is a waiter
it will wake it up. The waiter would then check the buffer, see that
it still does not have enough data to fill a page and go back to sleep.
To make matters worse, when the waiter goes back to sleep, it could
cause another event, which would wake it back up again to see it
doesn't have enough data and sleep again. This produces a tremendous
overhead and fills the ring buffer with noise.
For example, recording sched_switch on an idle system for 10 seconds
produces 25,350,475 events!!!
Create another wait queue for those waiters wanting full pages.
When an event is written, it only wakes up waiters if there's a full
page of data. It does not wake up the waiter if the page is not yet
full.
After this change, recording sched_switch on an idle system for 10
seconds produces only 800 events. Getting rid of 25,349,675 useless
events (99.9969% of events!!), is something to take seriously.

Commit 6edb2a8a38 introduced
an array map_pages that contains the addresses returned by
kmap_atomic. However, when unmapping those pages, map_pages[0]
is unmapped before map_pages[1], breaking the nesting requirement
as specified in the documentation for kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic.
This was caught by the highmem debug code present in kunmap_atomic.
Fix the loop to do the unmapping properly.

The tracing "instances" directory can create sub tracing buffers
with mkdir, and remove them with rmdir. As a mkdir will also create
all the files and directories that control the sub buffer the inode
mutexes need to be released before this is done, to avoid deadlocks.
It is better to let the tracing system unlock the inode mutexes before
calling the functions that create the files within the new directory
(or deletes the files from the one being destroyed).
Now that tracing has been converted over to tracefs, the tracefs file
system can be modified to accommodate this feature. It still releases
the locks, but the filesystem itself can take care of the ugly
business and let the user just do what it needs.
The tracing system now attaches a descriptor to the directory dentry
that can have userspace create or remove sub directories. If this
descriptor does not exist for a dentry, then that dentry can not be
used to create other directories. This descriptor holds a mkdir and
rmdir method that only takes a character string as an argument.
The tracefs file system will first make a copy of the dentry name
before releasing the locks. Then it will pass the copied name to the
methods. It is up to the tracing system that supplied the methods to
handle races with duplicate names and such as all the inode mutexes
would be released when the functions are called.

As tools currently rely on the tracing directory in debugfs, we can not
just created a tracefs infrastructure and expect sysadmins to mount
the new tracefs to have their old tools work.
Instead, the debugfs tracing directory is still created and the tracefs
file system is mounted there when the debugfs filesystem is mounted.
No longer does the tracing infrastructure update the debugfs file system,
but instead interacts with the tracefs file system. But now, it still
appears to the user like nothing changed, except you also have the feature
of mounting just the tracing system without needing all of debugfs!

debugfs was fine for the tracing facility as a quick way to get
an interface. Now that tracing has matured, it should separate itself
from debugfs such that it can be mounted separately without needing
to mount all of debugfs with it. That is, users resist using tracing
because it requires mounting debugfs. Having tracing have its own file
system lets users get the features of tracing without needing to bring
in the rest of the kernel's debug infrastructure.
Another reason for tracefs is that debubfs does not support mkdir.
Currently, to create instances, one does a mkdir in the tracing/instance
directory. This is implemented via a hack that forces debugfs to do
something it is not intended on doing. By converting over to tracefs, this
hack can be removed and mkdir can be properly implemented. This patch does
not address this yet, but it lays the ground work for that to be done.

Pull in Al Viro's changes to debugfs that implement the new primitive:
debugfs_create_automount(), that creates a directory in debugfs that will
safely mount another file system automatically when debugfs is mounted.
This will let tracefs automount itself on top of debugfs/tracing directory.
The top level trace array is treated a little different than the
instances, as it has to deal with more of the general tracing.
The tr->dir is the tracing directory, which is an immutable
dentry, where as the tr->dir of instances are the dentry that
was created, and can be destroyed later. These should have different
functions accessing them.
As only tracing_init_dentry() deals with the top level array, fold
the code for it into that function, and remove the trace_init_dentry_tr()
that was also used by the instances to get their directory dentry.
Add a tracing_get_dentry() to just get the tracing dir entry for
instances as well as the top level array.

If a trace event contains an array, there is currently no standard
way to format this for text output. Drivers are currently hacking
around this by a) local hacks that use the trace_seq functionailty
directly, or b) just not printing that information. For fixed size
arrays, formatting of the elements can be open-coded, but this gets
cumbersome for arrays of non-trivial size.
These approaches result in non-standard content of the event format
description delivered to userspace, so userland tools needs to be
taught to understand and parse each array printing method
individually.
This patch implements a __print_array() helper that tracepoint
implementations can use instead of reinventing it. A simple C-style
syntax is used to delimit the array and its elements {like,this}.
So that the helpers can be used with large static arrays as well as
dynamic arrays, they take a pointer and element count: they can be
used with __get_dynamic_array() for use with dynamic arrays.

the mixture of function graph tracing and kprobes.
When jprobes and function graph tracing is enabled at the same time
it will crash the system.
# modprobe jprobe_example
# echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
After the first fork (jprobe_example probes it), the system will crash.
This is due to the way jprobes copies the stack frame and does not
do a normal function return. This messes up with the function graph
tracing accounting which hijacks the return address from the stack
and replaces it with a hook function. It saves the return addresses in
a separate stack to put back the correct return address when done.
But because the jprobe functions do not do a normal return, their
stack addresses are not put back until the function they probe is called,
which means that the probed function will get the return address of
the jprobe handler instead of its own.
The simple fix here was to disable function graph tracing while the
jprobe handler is being called.
While debugging this I found two minor bugs with the function graph
tracing.
The first was about the function graph tracer sharing its function hash
with the function tracer (they both get filtered by the same input).
The changing of the set_ftrace_filter would not sync the function recording
records after a change if the function tracer was disabled but the
function graph tracer was enabled. This was due to the update only checking
one of the ops instead of the shared ops to see if they were enabled and
should perform the sync. This caused the ftrace accounting to break and
a ftrace_bug() would be triggered, disabling ftrace until a reboot.
The second was that the check to update records only checked one of the
filter hashes. It needs to test both the "filter" and "notrace" hashes.
The "filter" hash determines what functions to trace where as the "notrace"
hash determines what functions not to trace (trace all but these).
Both hashes need to be passed to the update code to find out what change
is being done during the update. This also broke the ftrace record
accounting and triggered a ftrace_bug().
This patch set also include two more fixes that were reported separately
from the kprobe issue.
One was that init_ftrace_syscalls() was called twice at boot up.
This is not a major bug, but that call performed a rather large kmalloc
(NR_syscalls * sizeof(*syscalls_metadata)). The second call made the first
one a memory leak, and wastes memory.
The other fix is a regression caused by an update in the v3.19 merge window.
The moving to enable events early, moved the enabling before PID 1 was
created. The syscall events require setting the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT
for all tasks. But for_each_process_thread() does not include the swapper
task (PID 0), and ended up being a nop. A suggested fix was to add
the init_task() to have its flag set, but I didn't really want to mess
with PID 0 for this minor bug. Instead I disable and re-enable events again
at early_initcall() where it use to be enabled. This also handles any other
event that might have its own reg function that could break at early
boot up.

Commit 5f893b2639 "tracing: Move enabling tracepoints to just after
rcu_init()" broke the enabling of system call events from the command
line. The reason was that the enabling of command line trace events
was moved before PID 1 started, and the syscall tracepoints require
that all tasks have the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT flag set. But the
swapper task (pid 0) is not part of that. Since the swapper task is the
only task that is running at this early in boot, no task gets the
flag set, and the tracepoint never gets reached.
Instead of setting the swapper task flag (there should be no reason to
do that), re-enabled trace events again after the init thread (PID 1)
has been started. It requires disabling all command line events and
re-enabling them, as just enabling them again will not reset the logic
to set the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT flag, as the syscall tracepoint will
be fooled into thinking that it was already set, and wont try setting
it again. For this reason, we must first disable it and re-enable it.

trace_init() calls init_ftrace_syscalls() and then calls trace_event_init()
which also calls init_ftrace_syscalls(). It makes more sense to only
call it from trace_event_init().
Calling it twice wastes memory, as it allocates the syscall events twice,
and loses the first copy of it.

Using just the filter for checking for trampolines or regs is not enough
when updating the code against the records that represent all functions.
Both the filter hash and the notrace hash need to be checked.
To trigger this bug (using trace-cmd and perf):
# perf probe -a do_fork
# trace-cmd start -B foo -e probe
# trace-cmd record -p function_graph -n do_fork sleep 1
The trace-cmd record at the end clears the filter before it disables
function_graph tracing and then that causes the accounting of the
ftrace function records to become incorrect and causes ftrace to bug.

As the set_ftrace_filter affects both the function tracer as well as the
function graph tracer, the ops that represent each have a shared
ftrace_ops_hash structure. This allows both to be updated when the filter
files are updated.
But if function graph is enabled and the global_ops (function tracing) ops
is not, then it is possible that the filter could be changed without the
update happening for the function graph ops. This will cause the changes
to not take place and may even cause a ftrace_bug to occur as it could mess
with the trampoline accounting.
The solution is to check if the ops uses the shared global_ops filter and
if the ops itself is not enabled, to check if there's another ops that is
enabled and also shares the global_ops filter. In that case, the
modification still needs to be executed.

Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf
related callbacks have massive stack bloat.
The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to
properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we
could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled
it with minimal bits required for operation.
Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it
turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available,
making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste.
This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events
have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static
per-cpu storage instead of on-stack.
Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers
of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular
perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be
optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler.
We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs()
like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler
and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the
recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs
element to use).
One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we
allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs
pointer available and do not need another.

Taking the global mutex "trace_types_lock" in the trace_pipe files
causes a bottle neck as most the pipe files can be read per cpu
and there's no reason to serialize them.
The current_trace variable was given a ref count and it can not
change when the ref count is not zero. Opening the trace_pipe
files will up the ref count (and decremented on close), so that
the lock no longer needs to be taken when accessing the
current_trace variable.

When one of the trace pipe files are being read (by either the trace_pipe
or trace_pipe_raw), do not allow the current_trace to change. By adding
a ref count that is incremented when the pipe files are opened, will
prevent the current_trace from being changed.
This will allow for the removal of the global trace_types_lock from
reading the pipe buffers (which is currently a bottle neck).

as I thought it might be. I'm pushing this in now.
This will allow Thomas to debug his irq work for 3.20.
This adds two new features:
1) Allow traceopoints to be enabled right after mm_init(). By passing
in the trace_event= kernel command line parameter, tracepoints can be
enabled at boot up. For debugging things like the initialization of
interrupts, it is needed to have tracepoints enabled very early. People
have asked about this before and this has been on my todo list. As it
can be helpful for Thomas to debug his upcoming 3.20 IRQ work, I'm
pushing this now. This way he can add tracepoints into the IRQ set up
and have users enable them when things go wrong.
2) Have the tracepoints printed via printk() (the console) when they
are triggered. If the irq code locks up or reboots the box, having the
tracepoint output go into the kernel ring buffer is useless for
debugging. But being able to add the tp_printk kernel command line
option along with the trace_event= option will have these tracepoints
printed as they occur, and that can be really useful for debugging
early lock up or reboot problems.
This code is not that intrusive and it passed all my tests. Thomas tried
them out too and it works for his needs.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"As the merge window is still open, and this code was not as complex as
I thought it might be. I'm pushing this in now.
This will allow Thomas to debug his irq work for 3.20.
This adds two new features:
1) Allow traceopoints to be enabled right after mm_init().
By passing in the trace_event= kernel command line parameter,
tracepoints can be enabled at boot up. For debugging things like
the initialization of interrupts, it is needed to have tracepoints
enabled very early. People have asked about this before and this
has been on my todo list. As it can be helpful for Thomas to debug
his upcoming 3.20 IRQ work, I'm pushing this now. This way he can
add tracepoints into the IRQ set up and have users enable them when
things go wrong.
2) Have the tracepoints printed via printk() (the console) when they
are triggered.
If the irq code locks up or reboots the box, having the tracepoint
output go into the kernel ring buffer is useless for debugging.
But being able to add the tp_printk kernel command line option
along with the trace_event= option will have these tracepoints
printed as they occur, and that can be really useful for debugging
early lock up or reboot problems.
This code is not that intrusive and it passed all my tests. Thomas
tried them out too and it works for his needs.

tracing: Add tp_printk cmdline to have tracepoints go to printk()
tracing: Move enabling tracepoints to just after rcu_init()
Add the kernel command line tp_printk option that will have tracepoints
that are active sent to printk() as well as to the trace buffer.
Passing "tp_printk" will activate this. To turn it off, the sysctl
/proc/sys/kernel/tracepoint_printk can have '0' echoed into it. Note,
this only works if the cmdline option is used. Echoing 1 into the sysctl
file without the cmdline option will have no affect.
Note, this is a dangerous option. Having high frequency tracepoints send
their data to printk() can possibly cause a live lock. This is another
reason why this is only active if the command line option is used.

Enabling tracepoints at boot up can be very useful. The tracepoint
can be initialized right after RCU has been. There's no need to
wait for the early_initcall() to be called. That's too late for some
things that can use tracepoints for debugging. Move the logic to
enable tracepoints out of the initcalls and into init/main.c to
right after rcu_init().
This also allows trace_printk() to be used early too.

Pull block driver core update from Jens Axboe:
"This is the pull request for the core block IO changes for 3.19. Not
a huge round this time, mostly lots of little good fixes:
- Fix a bug in sysfs blktrace interface causing a NULL pointer
dereference, when enabled/disabled through that API. From Arianna
Avanzini.
- Various updates/fixes/improvements for blk-mq:
- A set of updates from Bart, mostly fixing buts in the tag
handling.
- Cleanup/code consolidation from Christoph.
- Extend queue_rq API to be able to handle batching issues of IO
requests. NVMe will utilize this shortly. From me.
- A few tag and request handling updates from me.
- Cleanup of the preempt handling for running queues from Paolo.
- Prevent running of unmapped hardware queues from Ming Lei.
- Move the kdump memory limiting check to be in the correct
location, from Shaohua.
- Initialize all software queues at init time from Takashi. This
prevents a kobject warning when CPUs are brought online that
weren't online when a queue was registered.
- Single writeback fix for I_DIRTY clearing from Tejun. Queued with
the core IO changes, since it's just a single fix.
- Version X of the __bio_add_page() segment addition retry from
Maurizio. Hope the Xth time is the charm.

clean ups from that branch.
This code solves the issue of performing stack dumps from NMI context.
The issue is that printk() is not safe from NMI context as if the NMI
were to trigger when a printk() was being performed, the NMI could
deadlock from the printk() internal locks. This has been seen in practice.
With lots of review from Petr Mladek, this code went through several
iterations, and we feel that it is now at a point of quality to be
accepted into mainline.
Here's what is contained in this patch set:
o Creates a "seq_buf" generic buffer utility that allows a descriptor
to be passed around where functions can write their own "printk()"
formatted strings into it. The generic version was pulled out of
the trace_seq() code that was made specifically for tracing.
o The seq_buf code was change to model the seq_file code. I have
a patch (not included for 3.19) that converts the seq_file.c code
over to use seq_buf.c like the trace_seq.c code does. This was done
to make sure that seq_buf.c is compatible with seq_file.c. I may
try to get that patch in for 3.20.
o The seq_buf.c file was moved to lib/ to remove it from being dependent
on CONFIG_TRACING.
o The printk() was updated to allow for a per_cpu "override" of
the internal calls. That is, instead of writing to the console, a call
to printk() may do something else. This made it easier to allow the
NMI to change what printk() does in order to call dump_stack() without
needing to update that code as well.
o Finally, the dump_stack from all CPUs via NMI code was converted to
use the seq_buf code. The caller to trigger the NMI code would wait
till all the NMIs finished, and then it would print the seq_buf
data to the console safely from a non NMI context.

Currently, blktrace can be started/stopped via its ioctl-based interface
(used by the userspace blktrace tool) or via its ftrace interface. The
function blk_trace_remove_queue(), called each time an "enable" tunable
of the ftrace interface transitions to zero, removes the trace from the
running list, even if no function from the sysfs interface adds it to
such a list. This leads to a null pointer dereference. This commit
changes the blk_trace_remove_queue() function so that it does not remove
the blk_trace from the running list.

- Now the patch removes the invocation of list_del() instead of
adding an useless if branch, as suggested by Namhyung Kim.

The initial reason for this patch is that I noticed that:
if (len > TRACE_BUF_SIZE)
is off by one. In this code, if len == TRACE_BUF_SIZE, then it means we
have truncated the last character off the output string. If we truncate
two or more characters then we exit without printing.
After some discussion, we decided that printing truncated data is better
than not printing at all so we should just use vscnprintf() and remove
the test entirely. Also I have updated memcpy() to copy the NUL char
instead of setting the NUL in a separate step.

Currently, function graph tracer prints "!" or "+" just before
function execution time to signal a function overhead, depending
on the time. And some tracers tracing latency also print "!" or
"+" just after time to signal overhead, depending on the interval
between events. Even it is usually enough to do that, we sometimes
need to signal for bigger execution time than 100 micro seconds.
For example, I used function graph tracer to detect if there is
any case that exit_mm() takes too much time. I did following steps
in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. It was easier to detect very large
excution time with patched kernel than with original kernel.
$ echo exit_mm > set_graph_function
$ echo function_graph > current_tracer
$ echo > trace
$ cat trace_pipe > $LOGFILE
... (do something and terminate logging)
$ grep "\\$" $LOGFILE

3) $ 22207659 us | } /* mmput */
3) $ 22207793 us | } /* exit_mm */
And then, it was easy to find out that a schedule-out occured by
sub_preempt_count() within kernel_map_pages().
To detect very large function exection time caused by either problematic
function implementation or scheduling issues, this patch can be useful.

Ted noticed that he could not filter on an event for a bit being cleared.
That's because the filtering logic only tests event fields with a limited
number of comparisons which, for bit logic, only include "&", which can
test if a bit is set, but there's no good way to see if a bit is clear.
This adds a way to do: !(field & 2048)
Which returns true if the bit is not set, and false otherwise.
Note, currently !(field1 == 10 && field2 == 15) is not supported.
That is, the 'not' only works for direct comparisons, not for the
AND and OR logic.

Introduce FTRACE_OPS_FL_IPMODIFY to avoid conflict among
ftrace users who may modify regs->ip to change the execution
path. If two or more users modify the regs->ip on the same
function entry, one of them will be broken. So they must add
IPMODIFY flag and make sure that ftrace_set_filter_ip() succeeds.
Note that ftrace doesn't allow ftrace_ops which has IPMODIFY
flag to have notrace hash, and the ftrace_ops must have a
filter hash (so that the ftrace_ops can hook only specific
entries), because it strongly depends on the address and
must be allowed for only few selected functions.
