function_graph: Everyone uses HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR, remove it
All architectures that implement function graph also implements HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR. Remove it, as it is no longer a differentiator.

tracing ring buffer updates for v6.10:
- Add ring_buffer memory mappings The tracing ring buffer was created based on being mostly used with the splice system call. It is broken up into page ordered sub-buffers and the reader swaps a new sub-buffer with an existing sub-buffer that's part of the write buffer. It then has total access to the swapped out sub-buffer and can do copyless movements of the memory into other mediums (file system, network, etc). The buffer is great for passing around the ring buffer contents in the kernel, but is not so good for when the consumer is the user space task itself. A new interface is added that allows user space to memory map the ring buffer. It will get all the write sub-buffers as well as reader sub-buffer (that is not written to). It can send an ioctl to change which sub-buffer is the new reader sub-buffer. The ring buffer is read only to user space. It only needs to call the ioctl when it is finished with a sub-buffer and needs a new sub-buffer that the writer will not write over. A self test program was also created for testing and can be used as an example for the interface to user space. The libtracefs (external to the kernel) also has code that interacts with this, although it is disabled until the interface is in a official release. It can be enabled by compiling the library with a special flag. This was used for testing applications that perform better with the buffer being mapped. Memory mapped buffers have limitations. The main one is that it can not be used with the snapshot logic. If the buffer is mapped, snapshots will be disabled. If any logic is set to trigger snapshots on a buffer, that buffer will not be allowed to be mapped. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZkYzDRQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qttNAQCj3I0OpeI1vms85ShIa7Eha2qes5uC Yml2fnapkmRSwAEAp5UTGxtDctycWOk9B9PA7/oJmLgATaQwRKoEeTUwfAA= =TyEB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-ringbuffer-v6.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing ring buffer updates from Steven Rostedt: "Add ring_buffer memory mappings.

Probes updates for v6.10:
- tracing/probes: Adding new pseudo-types %pd and %pD support for dumping
dentry name from 'struct dentry *' and file name from 'struct file *'.
- uprobes: Some performance optimizations have been done.
. Speed up the BPF uprobe event by delaying the fetching of the uprobe
event arguments that are not used in BPF.
. Avoid locking by speculatively checking whether uprobe event is valid.
. Reduce lock contention by using read/write_lock instead of spinlock for
uprobe list operation. This improved BPF uprobe benchmark result 43% on
average.
- rethook: Removes non-fatal warning messages when tracing stack from BPF
and skip rcu_is_watching() validation in rethook if possible.
- objpool: Optimizing objpool (which is used by kretprobes and fprobe as
rethook backend storage) by inlining functions and avoid caching nr_cpu_ids
because it is a const value.
- fprobe: Add entry/exit callbacks types (code cleanup)
- kprobes: Check ftrace was killed in kprobes if it uses ftrace.

tracing updates for 6.8:
- Allow kernel trace instance creation to specify what events are created Inside the kernel, a subsystem may create a tracing instance that it can use to send events to user space. This sub-system may not care about the thousands of events that exist in eventfs. Allow the sub-system to specify what sub-systems of events it cares about, and only those events are exposed to this instance. - Allow the ring buffer to be broken up into bigger sub-buffers than just the architecture page size. A new tracefs file called "buffer_subbuf_size_kb" is created. The user can now specify a minimum size the sub-buffer may be in kilobytes. Note, that the implementation currently make the sub-buffer size a power of 2 pages (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...) but the user only writes in kilobyte size, and the sub-buffer will be updated to the next size that it will can accommodate it. If the user writes in 10, it will change the size to be 4 pages on x86 (16K), as that is the next available size that can hold 10K pages. - Update the debug output when a corrupt time is detected in the ring buffer. If the ring buffer detects inconsistent timestamps, there's a debug config options that will dump the contents of the meta data of the sub-buffer that is used for debugging. Add some more information to this dump that helps with debugging. - Add more timestamp debugging checks (only triggers when the config is enabled) - Increase the trace_seq iterator to 2 page sizes. - Allow strings written into tracefs_marker to be larger. Up to just under 2 page sizes (based on what trace_seq can hold). - Increase the trace_maker_raw write to be as big as a sub-buffer can hold. - Remove 32 bit time stamp logic, now that the rb_time_cmpxchg() has been removed. - More selftests were added. - Some code clean ups as well. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZZ8p3BQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6ql2GAQDZg/zlFEiJHyTfWbCIE8pA3T5xbzKo 26TNxIZAxJJZpQEAvGFU5Smy14pG6soEoVMp8B6ZOANbqU8VVamhOL+r+Qw= =0OYG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Allow kernel trace instance creation to specify what events are created Inside the kernel, a subsystem may create a tracing instance that it can use to send events to user space.

Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including:
- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following a
warning that was added in 6.2.
- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to, hopefully,
make it more useful.
- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly with
__counted_by annotations.
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent
structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the delightful
consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs build. A sustained
effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has addressed almost all of those,
bringing the documentation back into sync with the code. The fixes are
going through the appropriate maintainer trees.
- Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic links
to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations easy to
access.
- Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese.
...plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes.

tracing: Update subbuffer with kilobytes not page order
Using page order for deciding what the size of the ring buffer sub buffers are is exposing a bit too much of the implementation. Although the sub buffers are only allocated in orders of pages, allow the user to specify the minimum size of each sub-buffer via kilobytes like they can with the buffer size itself. If the user specifies 3 via: echo 3 > buffer_subbuf_size_kb Then the sub-buffer size will round up to 4kb (on a 4kb page size system). If they specify: echo 6 > buffer_subbuf_size_kb The sub-buffer size will become 8kb. and so on.

Documentation: coresight: fix `make refcheckdocs` warning
This reference uses a glob pattern to match multiple files, but the
asterisk was escaped as \* in order to not be interpreted by sphinx
as reStructuredText markup.
refcheckdocs/documentation-file-ref-check doesn't know about rST syntax
and tries to interpret the \* literally (instead of as a glob).
We can work around the warning by putting the Documentation reference
inside double backticks (``..``), which allows us to not escape the
asterisk.

Tracing updates for v6.7:
- Remove eventfs_file descriptor This is the biggest change, and the second part of making eventfs create its files dynamically. In 6.6 the first part was added, and that maintained a one to one mapping between eventfs meta descriptors and the directories and file inodes and dentries that were dynamically created. The directories were represented by a eventfs_inode and the files were represented by a eventfs_file. In v6.7 the eventfs_file is removed. As all events have the same directory make up (sched_switch has an "enable", "id", "format", etc files), the handing of what files are underneath each leaf eventfs directory is moved back to the tracing subsystem via a callback. When a event is added to the eventfs, it registers an array of evenfs_entry's. These hold the names of the files and the callbacks to call when the file is referenced. The callback gets the name so that the same callback may be used by multiple files. The callback then supplies the filesystem_operations structure needed to create this file. This has brought the memory footprint of creating multiple eventfs instances down by 2 megs each! - User events now has persistent events that are not associated to a single processes. These are privileged events that hang around even if no process is attached to them. - Clean up of seq_buf. There's talk about using seq_buf more to replace strscpy() and friends. But this also requires some minor modifications of seq_buf to be able to do this. - Expand instance ring buffers individually Currently if boot up creates an instance, and a trace event is enabled on that instance, the ring buffer for that instance and the top level ring buffer are expanded (1.4 MB per CPU). This wastes memory as this happens when nothing is using the top level instance. - Other minor clean ups and fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZUMrBBQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6quzVAQCed/kPM7X9j2QZamJVDruMf2CmVxpu /TOvKvSKV584GgEAxLntf5VKx1Q98bc68y3Zkg+OCi8jSgORos1ROmURhws= =iIgb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Remove eventfs_file descriptor This is the biggest change, and the second part of making eventfs create its files dynamically.

trace-vmscan-postprocess: sync with tracepoints updates
The script has fallen behind tracepoint changes for a while, fix it up. Most changes are mechanical (renames, removal of tracepoint parameters that are not used by the script). More notable change involves mm_vmscan_lru_isolate which is relying on the isolate_mode to determine if the inactive list is being scanned. However the parameter currently only indicates ISOLATE_UNMAPPED. We can use the lru parameter instead to determine which list is scanned, and stop checking isolate_mode.

tracing/user_events: Document persist event flags
Users need to know how to make events persist now that we allow for that. We also now allow the dynamic_events file to create events by utilizing the persist flag during event register. Add back in to documentation how /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events can be used to create persistent user_events. Add a section under registering for the currently supported flags (USER_EVENT_REG_PERSIST) and the required permissions. Add a note under deleting that deleting a persistent event also requires sufficient permission.

Probes updates for v6.6:
- kprobes: use struct_size() for variable size kretprobe_instance
data structure.
- eprobe: Simplify trace_eprobe list iteration.
- probe events: Data structure field access support on BTF argument.
. Update BTF argument support on the functions in the kernel loadable
modules (only loaded modules are supported).
. Move generic BTF access function (search function prototype and get
function parameters) to a separated file.
. Add a function to search a member of data structure in BTF.
. Support accessing BTF data structure member from probe args by
C-like arrow('->') and dot('.') operators. e.g.
't sched_switch next=next->pid vruntime=next->se.vruntime'
. Support accessing BTF data structure member from $retval. e.g.
'f getname_flags%return +0($retval->name):string'
. Add string type checking if BTF type info is available.
This will reject if user specify ":string" type for non "char
pointer" type.
. Automatically assume the fprobe event as a function return event
if $retval is used.
- selftests/ftrace: Add BTF data field access test cases.
- Documentation: Update fprobe event example with BTF data field.

Tracing updates for 6.6:
User visible changes:
- Added a way to easier filter with cpumasks:
# echo 'cpumask & CPUS{17-42}' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ipi_send_cpumask/filter
- Show actual size of ring buffer after modifying the ring buffer size via
buffer_size_kb. Currently it just returns what was written, but the actual
size rounds up to the sub buffer size. Show that real size instead.
Major changes:
- Added "eventfs". This is the code that handles the inodes and dentries of
tracefs/events directory. As there are thousands of events, and each event
has several inodes and dentries that currently exist even when tracing is
never used, they take up precious memory. Instead, eventfs will allocate
the inodes and dentries in a JIT way (similar to what procfs does). There
is now metadata that handles the events and subdirectories, and will create
the inodes and dentries when they are used.
Note, I also have patches that remove the subdirectory meta data, but will
wait till the next merge window before applying them. It's a little more
complex, and I want to make sure the dynamic code works properly before
adding more complexity, making it easier to revert if need be.
Minor changes:
- Optimization to user event list traversal.
- Remove intermediate permission of tracefs files (note the intermediate
permission removes all access to the files so it is not a security concern,
but just a clean up.)
- Add the complex fix to FORTIFY_SOURCE to the kernel stack event logic.
- Other minor clean ups.

Probes updates for v6.5:
- fprobe: Pass return address to the fprobe entry/exit callbacks so that
the callbacks don't need to analyze pt_regs/stack to find the function
return address.
- kprobe events: cleanup usage of TPARG_FL_FENTRY and TPARG_FL_RETURN
flags so that those are not set at once.
- fprobe events:
. Add a new fprobe events for tracing arbitrary function entry and
exit as a trace event.
. Add a new tracepoint events for tracing raw tracepoint as a trace
event. This allows user to trace non user-exposed tracepoints.
. Move eprobe's event parser code into probe event common file.
. Introduce BTF (BPF type format) support to kernel probe (kprobe,
fprobe and tracepoint probe) events so that user can specify traced
function arguments by name. This also applies the type of argument
when fetching the argument.
. Introduce '$arg*' wildcard support if BTF is available. This expands
the '$arg*' meta argument to all function argument automatically.
. Check the return value types by BTF. If the function returns 'void',
'$retval' is rejected.
. Add some selftest script for fprobe events, tracepoint events and
BTF support.
. Update documentation about the fprobe events.
. Some fixes for above features, document and selftests.
- selftests for ftrace (except for new fprobe events):
. Add a test case for multiple consecutive probes in a function which
checks if ftrace based kprobe, optimized kprobe and normal kprobe
can be defined in the same target function.
. Add a test case for optimized probe, which checks whether kprobe
can be optimized or not.

- Move eprobe's event parser code into probe event common file.
- Introduce BTF (BPF type format) support to kernel probe (kprobe,
fprobe and tracepoint probe) events so that user can specify

- Introduce '$arg*' wildcard support if BTF is available. This
expands the '$arg*' meta argument to all function argument
automatically.
- Check the return value types by BTF. If the function returns
'void', '$retval' is rejected.
- Add some selftest script for fprobe events, tracepoint events

- Update documentation about the fprobe events.
- Some fixes for above features, document and selftests.
- selftests for ftrace (in addition to the new fprobe events):
- Add a test case for multiple consecutive probes in a function
which checks if ftrace based kprobe, optimized kprobe and normal
kprobe can be defined in the same target function.
- Add a test case for optimized probe, which checks whether kprobe
can be optimized or not.

Tracing updates for 6.5:
- Add new feature to have function graph tracer record the return value. Adds a new option: funcgraph-retval ; when set, will show the return value of a function in the function graph tracer. - Also add the option: funcgraph-retval-hex where if it is not set, and the return value is an error code, then it will return the decimal of the error code, otherwise it still reports the hex value. - Add the file /sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/per_cpu/cpu<cpu>/timerlat_fd That when a application opens it, it becomes the task that the timer lat tracer traces. The application can also read this file to find out how it's being interrupted. - Add the file /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions_addrs that works just the same as available_filter_functions but also shows the addresses of the functions like kallsyms, except that it gives the address of where the fentry/mcount jump/nop is. This is used by BPF to make it easier to attach BPF programs to ftrace hooks. - Replace strlcpy with strscpy in the tracing boot code. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZJy6ixQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qnzRAPsEI2YgjaJSHnuPoGRHbrNil6pq66wY LYaLizGI4Jv9BwEAqdSdcYcMiWo1SFBAO8QxEDM++BX3zrRyVgW8ahaTNgs= =TF0C -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Add new feature to have function graph tracer record the return value.

tracing/timerlat: Add user-space interface
Going a step further, we propose a way to use any user-space
workload as the task waiting for the timerlat timer. This is done
via a per-CPU file named osnoise/cpu$id/timerlat_fd file.
The tracef_fd allows a task to open at a time. When a task reads
the file, the timerlat timer is armed for future osnoise/timerlat_period_us
time. When the timer fires, it prints the IRQ latency and
wakes up the user-space thread waiting in the timerlat_fd.
The thread then starts to run, executes the timerlat measurement, prints
the thread scheduling latency and returns to user-space.
When the thread rereads the timerlat_fd, the tracer will print the
user-ret(urn) latency, which is an additional metric.
This additional metric is also traced by the tracer and can be used, for
example of measuring the context switch overhead from kernel-to-user and
user-to-kernel, or the response time for an arbitrary execution in
user-space.
The tracer supports one thread per CPU, the thread must be pinned to
the CPU, and it cannot migrate while holding the timerlat_fd. The reason
is that the tracer is per CPU (nothing prohibits the tracer from
allowing migrations in the future). The tracer monitors the migration
of the thread and disables the tracer if detected.
The timerlat_fd is only available for opening/reading when timerlat
tracer is enabled, and NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD is set.
The simplest way to activate this feature from user-space is:
-------------------------------- %< -----------------------------------
int main(void)
{
char buffer[1024];
int timerlat_fd;
int retval;
long cpu = 0; /* place in CPU 0 */
cpu_set_t set;
CPU_ZERO(&set);
CPU_SET(cpu, &set);
if (sched_setaffinity(gettid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1)
return 1;
snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer),
"/sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/per_cpu/cpu%ld/timerlat_fd",
cpu);
timerlat_fd = open(buffer, O_RDONLY);
if (timerlat_fd < 0) {
printf("error opening %s: %s\n", buffer, strerror(errno));
exit(1);
}
for (;;) {
retval = read(timerlat_fd, buffer, 1024);
if (retval < 0)
break;
}
close(timerlat_fd);
exit(0);
}
-------------------------------- >% -----------------------------------
When disabling timerlat, if there is a workload holding the timerlat_fd,
the SIGKILL will be sent to the thread.

ftrace: Show all functions with addresses in available_filter_functions_addrs
Adding new available_filter_functions_addrs file that shows all available
functions (same as available_filter_functions) together with addresses,
like:
# cat available_filter_functions_addrs | head
ffffffff81000770 __traceiter_initcall_level
ffffffff810007c0 __traceiter_initcall_start
ffffffff81000810 __traceiter_initcall_finish
ffffffff81000860 trace_initcall_finish_cb
...
Note displayed address is the patch-site address and can differ from
/proc/kallsyms address.
It's useful to have address avilable for traceable symbols, so we don't
need to allways cross check kallsyms with available_filter_functions
(or the other way around) and have all the data in single file.
For backwards compatibility reasons we can't change the existing
available_filter_functions file output, but we need to add new file.
The problem is that we need to do 2 passes:
- through available_filter_functions and find out if the function is traceable
- through /proc/kallsyms to get the address for traceable function
Having available_filter_functions symbols together with addresses allow
us to skip the kallsyms step and we are ok with the address in
available_filter_functions_addr not being the function entry, because
kprobe_multi uses fprobe and that handles both entry and patch-site
address properly.
We have 2 interfaces how to create kprobe_multi link:
a) passing symbols to kernel
1) user gathers symbols and need to ensure that they are
trace-able -> pass through available_filter_functions file
2) kernel takes those symbols and translates them to addresses
through kallsyms api
3) addresses are passed to fprobe/ftrace through:
register_fprobe_ips
-> ftrace_set_filter_ips
b) passing addresses to kernel
1) user gathers symbols and needs to ensure that they are
trace-able -> pass through available_filter_functions file
2) user takes those symbols and translates them to addresses
through /proc/kallsyms
3) addresses are passed to the kernel and kernel calls:
register_fprobe_ips
-> ftrace_set_filter_ips
The new available_filter_functions_addrs file helps us with option b),
because we can make 'b 1' and 'b 2' in one step - while filtering traceable
functions, we get the address directly.

hwtracing: hisi_ptt: Export available filters through sysfs
The PTT can only filter the traced TLP headers by the Root Ports or the Requester ID of the Endpoint, which are located on the same PCIe core of the PTT device. The filter value used is derived from the BDF number of the supported Root Port or the Endpoint. It's not friendly enough for the users since it requires the user to be familiar enough with the platform and calculate the filter value manually. This patch export the available filters through sysfs. Each available filters is presented as an individual file with the name of the BDF number of the related PCIe device. The files are created under $(PTT PMU dir)/available_root_port_filters and $(PTT PMU dir)/available_requester_filters respectively. The filter value can be known by reading the related file. Then the users can easily know the available filters for trace and get the filter values without calculating.

tracing: Rename stacktrace field to common_stacktrace
The histogram and synthetic events can use a pseudo event called "stacktrace" that will create a stacktrace at the time of the event and use it just like it was a normal field. We have other pseudo events such as "common_cpu" and "common_timestamp". To stay consistent with that, convert "stacktrace" to "common_stacktrace". As this was used in older kernels, to keep backward compatibility, this will act just like "common_cpu" did with "cpu". That is, "cpu" will be the same as "common_cpu" unless the event has a "cpu" field. In which case, the event's field is used. The same is true with "stacktrace". Also update the documentation to reflect this change.

Minor tracing updates:
- Make buffer_percent read/write. The buffer_percent file is how users can state how long to block on the tracing buffer depending on how much is in the buffer. When it hits the "buffer_percent" it will wake the task waiting on the buffer. For some reason it was set to read-only. This was not noticed because testing was done as root without SELinux, but with SELinux it will prevent even root to write to it without having CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE. - The "touched_functions" was added this merge window, but one of the reasons for adding it was not implemented. That was to show what functions were not only touched, but had either a direct trampoline attached to it, or a kprobe or live kernel patching that can "hijack" the function to run a different function. The point is to know if there's functions in the kernel that may not be behaving as the kernel code shows. This can be used for debugging.

tracing updates for 6.4:
- User events are finally ready!
After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally locked
down on a stable interface for user events that can also work with user
space only tracing. This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user
space library, but that part is user space only and not part of this
patch set), where the variable is that the application uses to know if
something is listening to the trace. There's also an interface to tell
the kernel about these events, which will show up in the
/sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/ directory, where it can be
enabled. When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell
the application to start writing to the kernel.
See https://lwn.net/Articles/927595/
- Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of
direct trampolines. Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but
instead of jumping to the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF)
can register their own trampoline for performance reasons.
- Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient than
kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that kprobes on
ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes will be exposed
as dynamic events.
- More updates to references to the obsolete path of
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path.
- Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer line
by line instead of all at once. There's users in production kernels that
have a large data dump that originally used printk() directly, but the
data dump was larger than what printk() allowed as a single print.
Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that.
- Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions that
was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used for
debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a crash by
a bpf program or live patching.
- Add a "fields" option that is similar to "raw" but outputs the fields of
the events. It's easier to read by humans.
- Some minor fixes and clean ups.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- User events are finally ready!
After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally
locked down on a stable interface for user events that can also work
with user space only tracing.
This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user space library, but
that part is user space only and not part of this patch set), where
the variable is that the application uses to know if something is
listening to the trace.
There's also an interface to tell the kernel about these events,
which will show up in the /sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/
directory, where it can be enabled.
When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell the
application to start writing to the kernel.

tracing: Add "fields" option to show raw trace event fields
The hex, raw and bin formats come from the old PREEMPT_RT patch set
latency tracer. That actually gave real alternatives to reading the ascii
buffer. But they have started to bit rot and they do not give a good
representation of the tracing data.
Add "fields" option that will read the trace event fields and parse the
data from how the fields are defined:
With "fields" = 0 (default)

tracing/probe: add a char type to show the character value of traced arguments
There are scenes that we want to show the character value of traced
arguments other than a decimal or hexadecimal or string value for debug
convinience. I add a new type named 'char' to do it and a new test case
file named 'kprobe_args_char.tc' to do selftest for char type.
For example:
The to be traced function is 'void demo_func(char type, char *name);', we
can add a kprobe event as follows to show argument values as we want:
echo 'p:myprobe demo_func $arg1:char +0($arg2):char[5]' > kprobe_events
we will get the following trace log:
... myprobe: (demo_func+0x0/0x29) arg1='A' arg2={'b','p','f','1',''}

docs: ftrace: always use canonical ftrace path
The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing. But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst: Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system, the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing Many parts of Documentation still reference this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

tracing: Add a way to filter function addresses to function names
There's been several times where an event records a function address in its field and I needed to filter on that address for a specific function name. It required looking up the function in kallsyms, finding its size, and doing a compare of "field >= function_start && field < function_end". But this would change from boot to boot and is unreliable in scripts. Also, it is useful to have this at boot up, where the addresses will not be known. For example, on the boot command line: trace_trigger="initcall_finish.traceoff if func.function == acpi_init" To implement this, add a ".function" prefix, that will check that the field is of size long, and the only operations allowed (so far) are "==" and "!=".

tracing/probes: Add symstr type for dynamic events
Add 'symstr' type for storing the kernel symbol as a string data instead of the symbol address. This allows us to filter the events by wildcard symbol name. e.g. # echo 'e:wqfunc workqueue.workqueue_execute_start symname=$function:symstr' >> dynamic_events # cat events/eprobes/wqfunc/format name: wqfunc ID: 2110 format: field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0; field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1; field:__data_loc char[] symname; offset:8; size:4; signed:1; print fmt: " symname=\"%s\"", __get_str(symname) Note that there is already 'symbol' type which just change the print format (so it still stores the symbol address in the tracing ring buffer.) On the other hand, 'symstr' type stores the actual "symbol+offset/size" data as a string.

kprobes: kretprobe events missing on 2-core KVM guest
Default value of maxactive is set as num_possible_cpus() for nonpreemptable systems. For a 2-core system, only 2 kretprobe instances would be allocated in default, then these 2 instances for execve kretprobe are very likely to be used up with a pipelined command. Here's the testcase: a shell script was added to crontab, and the content of the script is: #!/bin/sh do_something_magic `tr -dc a-z < /dev/urandom | head -c 10` cron will trigger a series of program executions (4 times every hour). Then events loss would be noticed normally after 3-4 hours of testings. The issue is caused by a burst of series of execve requests. The best number of kretprobe instances could be different case by case, and should be user's duty to determine, but num_possible_cpus() as the default value is inadequate especially for systems with small number of cpus. This patch enables the logic for preemption as default, thus increases the minimum of maxactive to 10 for nonpreemptable systems.

Pull setgid inheritance updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the work to make setgid inheritance consistent between
modifying a file and when changing ownership or mode as this has been
a repeated source of very subtle bugs. The gist is that we perform the
same permission checks in the write path as we do in the ownership and
mode changing paths after this series where we're currently doing
different things.
We've already made setgid inheritance a lot more consistent and
reliable in the last releases by moving setgid stripping from the
individual filesystems up into the vfs. This aims to make the logic
even more consistent and easier to understand and also to fix
long-standing overlayfs setgid inheritance bugs. Miklos was nice
enough to just let me carry the trivial overlayfs patches from Amir
too.
Below is a more detailed explanation how the current difference in
setgid handling lead to very subtle bugs exemplified via overlayfs
which is a victim of the current rules. I hope this explains why I
think taking the regression risk here is worth it.
A long while ago I found a few setgid inheritance bugs in overlayfs in
the write path in certain conditions. Amir recently picked this back
up in [1] and I jumped on board to fix this more generally.
On the surface all that overlayfs would need to fix setgid inheritance
would be to call file_remove_privs() or file_modified() but actually
that isn't enough because the setgid inheritance api is wildly
inconsistent in that area.
Before this pr setgid stripping in file_remove_privs()'s old
should_remove_suid() helper was inconsistent with other parts of the
vfs. Specifically, it only raises ATTR_KILL_SGID if the inode is
S_ISGID and S_IXGRP but not if the inode isn't in the caller's groups
and the caller isn't privileged over the inode although we require
this already in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and so all
filesystem implement this requirement implicitly because they have to
use setattr_{prepare,copy}() anyway.
But the inconsistency shows up in setgid stripping bugs for overlayfs
in xfstests (e.g., generic/673, generic/683, generic/685, generic/686,
generic/687). For example, we test whether suid and setgid stripping
works correctly when performing various write-like operations as an
unprivileged user (fallocate, reflink, write, etc.):
echo "Test 1 - qa_user, non-exec file $verb"
setup_testfile
chmod a+rws $junk_file
commit_and_check "$qa_user" "$verb" 64k 64k
The test basically creates a file with 6666 permissions. While the
file has the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits set it does not have the S_IXGRP
set.
On a regular filesystem like xfs what will happen is:
sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> xfs_file_fallocate()
-> file_modified()
-> __file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
-> notify_change()
-> setattr_copy()
In should_remove_suid() we can see that ATTR_KILL_SUID is raised
unconditionally because the file in the test has S_ISUID set.
But we also see that ATTR_KILL_SGID won't be set because while the
file is S_ISGID it is not S_IXGRP (see above) which is a condition for
ATTR_KILL_SGID being raised.
So by the time we call notify_change() we have attr->ia_valid set to
ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_FORCE.
Now notify_change() sees that ATTR_KILL_SUID is set and does:
ia_valid = attr->ia_valid |= ATTR_MODE
attr->ia_mode = (inode->i_mode & ~S_ISUID);
which means that when we call setattr_copy() later we will definitely
update inode->i_mode. Note that attr->ia_mode still contains S_ISGID.
Now we call into the filesystem's ->setattr() inode operation which
will end up calling setattr_copy(). Since ATTR_MODE is set we will
hit:
if (ia_valid & ATTR_MODE) {
umode_t mode = attr->ia_mode;
vfsgid_t vfsgid = i_gid_into_vfsgid(mnt_userns, inode);
if (!vfsgid_in_group_p(vfsgid) &&
!capable_wrt_inode_uidgid(mnt_userns, inode, CAP_FSETID))
mode &= ~S_ISGID;
inode->i_mode = mode;
}
and since the caller in the test is neither capable nor in the group
of the inode the S_ISGID bit is stripped.
But assume the file isn't suid then ATTR_KILL_SUID won't be raised
which has the consequence that neither the setgid nor the suid bits
are stripped even though it should be stripped because the inode isn't
in the caller's groups and the caller isn't privileged over the inode.
If overlayfs is in the mix things become a bit more complicated and
the bug shows up more clearly.
When e.g., ovl_setattr() is hit from ovl_fallocate()'s call to
file_remove_privs() then ATTR_KILL_SUID and ATTR_KILL_SGID might be
raised but because the check in notify_change() is questioning the
ATTR_KILL_SGID flag again by requiring S_IXGRP for it to be stripped
the S_ISGID bit isn't removed even though it should be stripped:
sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> ovl_fallocate()
-> file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
-> notify_change()
-> ovl_setattr()
/* TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS */
-> ovl_do_notify_change()
-> notify_change()
/* GIVE UP MOUNTER'S CREDS */
/* TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS */
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> xfs_file_fallocate()
-> file_modified()
-> __file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = attr_force | kill;
-> notify_change()
The fix for all of this is to make file_remove_privs()'s
should_remove_suid() helper perform the same checks as we already
require in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and have
notify_change() not pointlessly requiring S_IXGRP again. It doesn't
make any sense in the first place because the caller must calculate
the flags via should_remove_suid() anyway which would raise
ATTR_KILL_SGID
Note that some xfstests will now fail as these patches will cause the
setgid bit to be lost in certain conditions for unprivileged users
modifying a setgid file when they would've been kept otherwise. I
think this risk is worth taking and I explained and mentioned this
multiple times on the list [2].
Enforcing the rules consistently across write operations and
chmod/chown will lead to losing the setgid bit in cases were it
might've been retained before.
While I've mentioned this a few times but it's worth repeating just to
make sure that this is understood. For the sake of maintainability,
consistency, and security this is a risk worth taking.
If we really see regressions for workloads the fix is to have special
setgid handling in the write path again with different semantics from
chmod/chown and possibly additional duct tape for overlayfs. I'll
update the relevant xfstests with if you should decide to merge this
second setgid cleanup.
Before that people should be aware that there might be failures for
fstests where unprivileged users modify a setgid file"

is S_ISGID it is not S_IXGRP (see above) which is a condition for
ATTR_KILL_SGID being raised.
So by the time we call notify_change() we have attr->ia_valid set to
ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_FORCE. Now notify_change() sees that
ATTR_KILL_SUID is set and does:
ia_valid = attr->ia_valid |= ATTR_MODE
attr->ia_mode = (inode->i_mode & ~S_ISUID);
which means that when we call setattr_copy() later we will definitely
update inode->i_mode. Note that attr->ia_mode still contains S_ISGID.
Now we call into the filesystem's ->setattr() inode operation which will
end up calling setattr_copy(). Since ATTR_MODE is set we will hit:
if (ia_valid & ATTR_MODE) {
umode_t mode = attr->ia_mode;
vfsgid_t vfsgid = i_gid_into_vfsgid(mnt_userns, inode);
if (!vfsgid_in_group_p(vfsgid) &&
!capable_wrt_inode_uidgid(mnt_userns, inode, CAP_FSETID))
mode &= ~S_ISGID;
inode->i_mode = mode;
}
and since the caller in the test is neither capable nor in the group of the
inode the S_ISGID bit is stripped.
But assume the file isn't suid then ATTR_KILL_SUID won't be raised which
has the consequence that neither the setgid nor the suid bits are stripped
even though it should be stripped because the inode isn't in the caller's
groups and the caller isn't privileged over the inode.
If overlayfs is in the mix things become a bit more complicated and the bug
shows up more clearly. When e.g., ovl_setattr() is hit from
ovl_fallocate()'s call to file_remove_privs() then ATTR_KILL_SUID and
ATTR_KILL_SGID might be raised but because the check in notify_change() is
questioning the ATTR_KILL_SGID flag again by requiring S_IXGRP for it to be
stripped the S_ISGID bit isn't removed even though it should be stripped:
sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> ovl_fallocate()
-> file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
-> notify_change()
-> ovl_setattr()
// TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS
-> ovl_do_notify_change()
-> notify_change()
// GIVE UP MOUNTER'S CREDS
// TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS
-> vfs_fallocate()
-> xfs_file_fallocate()
-> file_modified()
-> __file_remove_privs()
-> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
-> should_remove_suid()
-> __remove_privs()
newattrs.ia_valid = attr_force | kill;
-> notify_change()
The fix for all of this is to make file_remove_privs()'s
should_remove_suid() helper to perform the same checks as we already
require in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and have notify_change()
not pointlessly requiring S_IXGRP again. It doesn't make any sense in the
first place because the caller must calculate the flags via
should_remove_suid() anyway which would raise ATTR_KILL_SGID.
While we're at it we move should_remove_suid() from inode.c to attr.c
where it belongs with the rest of the iattr helpers. Especially since it
returns ATTR_KILL_S{G,U}ID flags. We also rename it to
setattr_should_drop_suidgid() to better reflect that it indicates both
setuid and setgid bit removal and also that it returns attr flags.
Running xfstests with this doesn't report any regressions. We should really
try and use consistent checks.

perf tools changes for v6.1: 1st batch
- Add support for AMD on 'perf mem' and 'perf c2c', the kernel enablement
patches went via tip.
Example:
$ sudo perf mem record -- -c 10000
^C[ perf record: Woken up 227 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 58.760 MB perf.data (836978 samples) ]
$ sudo perf mem report -F mem,sample,snoop
Samples: 836K of event 'ibs_op//', Event count (approx.): 8418762
Memory access Samples Snoop
N/A 700620 N/A
L1 hit 126675 N/A
L2 hit 424 N/A
L3 hit 664 HitM
L3 hit 10 N/A
Local RAM hit 2 N/A
Remote RAM (1 hop) hit 8558 N/A
Remote Cache (1 hop) hit 3 N/A
Remote Cache (1 hop) hit 2 HitM
Remote Cache (2 hops) hit 10 HitM
Remote Cache (2 hops) hit 6 N/A
Uncached hit 4 N/A
$
- "perf lock" improvements:
- Add -E/--entries option to limit the number of entries to display, say to ask for
just the top 5 contended locks.
- Add -q/--quiet option to suppress header and debug messages.
- Add a 'perf test' kernel lock contention entry to test 'perf lock'.
- "perf lock contention" improvements:
- Ask BPF's bpf_get_stackid() to skip some callchain entries.
The ones closer to the tooling are bpf related and not that interesting, the
ones calling the locking function are the ones we're interested in, example
of a full, unskipped callstack:
- Allow changing the callstack depth and number of entries to skip.
1 10.74 us 10.74 us 10.74 us spinlock __bpf_trace_contention_begin+0xb

0xffffffffbb841015 tick_do_update_jiffies64+0x25
0xffffffffbb8409ee tick_irq_enter+0x9e
- Show full callstack in verbose mode (-v option), sometimes this is desirable
instead of showing just one callstack entry.
- Allow multiple time ranges in 'perf record --delay' to help in reducing the
amount of data collected from hardware tracing (Intel PT, etc) when there is
a rough idea of periods of time where events of interest take time.
- Add Intel PT to record only decoder debug messages when error happens.
- Improve layout of Intel PT man page.
- Add new branch types: alignment, data and inst faults and arch specific ones,
such as fiq, debug_halt, debug_exit, debug_inst and debug_data on arm64.
Kernel enablement went thru the tip tree.
- Fix 'perf probe' error log check in 'perf test' when no debuginfo is
available.
- Fix 'perf stat' aggregation mode logic, it should be looking at the CPU
not at the core number.
- Fix flags parsing in 'perf trace' filters.
- Introduce compact encoding of CPU range encoding on perf.data, to avoid
having a bitmap with all the CPUs.
- Improvements to the 'perf stat' metrics, including adding "core_wide", and
computing "smt" from the CPU topology.
- Add support to the new PERF_FORMAT_LOST perf_event_attr.read_format, that allows
tooling to ask for the precise number of lost samples for a given event.
- Add 'addr' sort key to see just the address of sampled instructions:
$ perf record -o- true | perf report -i- -s addr
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ]

perf annotate: Toggle full address <-> offset display
- Add 'f' hotkey to the 'perf annotate' TUI interface when in 'disassembler output'
mode ('o' hotkey) to toggle showing full virtual address or just the offset.
- Cache DSO build-ids when synthesizing PERF_RECORD_MMAP records for pre-existing threads,
at the start of a 'perf record' session, speeding up that record startup phase.
- Add a command line option to specify build ids in 'perf inject'.
- Update JSON event files for the Intel alderlake, broadwell, broadwellde,
broadwellx, cascadelakex, haswell, haswellx, icelake, icelakex, ivybridge,
ivytown, jaketown, sandybridge, sapphirerapids, skylake, skylakex, and
tigerlake processors.
- Update vendor JSON event files for the ARM Neoverse V1 and E1 platforms.
- Add a 'perf test' entry for 'perf mem' where a struct has false sharing and
this gets detected in the 'perf mem' output, tested with Intel, AMD and ARM64
systems.
- Add a 'perf test' entry to test the resolution of java symbols, where an
output like this is expected:
8.18% jshell jitted-50116-29.so [.] Interpreter
0.75% Thread-1 jitted-83602-1670.so [.] jdk.internal.jimage.BasicImageReader.getString(int)
- Add tests for the ARM64 CoreSight hardware tracing feature, with specially
crafted pureloop, memcpy, thread loop and unroll tread that then gets
traced and the output compared with expected output.
Documentation explaining it is also included.
- Add per thread Intel PT 'perf test' entry to check that PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE events
are recorded per CPU, resulting in a mixture of per thread and per CPU events and mmaps,
verify that this gets all recorded correctly.
- Introduce pthread mutex wrappers to allow for building with clang's
-Wthread-safety, i.e. using the "guarded_by" "pt_guarded_by" "lockable",
"exclusive_lock_function", "exclusive_trylock_function",
"exclusive_locks_required", and "no_thread_safety_analysis" compiler function
attributes.
- Fix empty version number when building outside of a git repo.
- Improve feature detection display when multiple versions of a feature are present, such
as for binutils libbfd, that has a mix of possible ways to detect according to the
Linux distribution.
Previously in some cases we had:
Auto-detecting system features
<SNIP>
... libbfd: [ on ]
... libbfd-liberty: [ on ]
... libbfd-liberty-z: [ on ]
<SNIP>
Now for this case we show just the main feature:
Auto-detecting system features
<SNIP>
... libbfd: [ on ]
<SNIP>
- Remove some unused structs, variables, macros, function prototypes and
includes from various places.

Tracing updates for 6.1:
Major changes:
- Changed location of tracing repo from personal git repo to:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace.git
- Added Masami Hiramatsu as co-maintainer
- Updated MAINTAINERS file to separate out FTRACE as it is
more than just TRACING.
Minor changes:
- Added Mark Rutland as FTRACE reviewer
- Updated user_events to make it on its way to remove the BROKEN tag.
The changes should now be acceptable but will run it through
a cycle and hopefully we can remove the BROKEN tag next release.
- Added filtering to eprobes
- Added a delta time to the benchmark trace event
- Have the histogram and filter callbacks called via a switch
statement instead of indirect functions. This speeds it up to
avoid retpolines.
- Add a way to wake up ring buffer waiters waiting for the
ring buffer to fill up to its watermark.
- New ioctl() on the trace_pipe_raw file to wake up ring buffer
waiters.
- Wake up waiters when the ring buffer is disabled.
A reader may block when the ring buffer is disabled,
but if it was blocked when the ring buffer is disabled
it should then wake up.
Fixes:
- Allow splice to read partially read ring buffer pages
Fixes splice never moving forward.
- Fix inverted compare that made the "shortest" ring buffer
wait queue actually the longest.
- Fix a race in the ring buffer between resetting a page when
a writer goes to another page, and the reader.
- Fix ftrace accounting bug when function hooks are added at
boot up before the weak functions are set to "disabled".
- Fix bug that freed a user allocated snapshot buffer when
enabling a tracer.
- Fix possible recursive locks in osnoise tracer
- Fix recursive locking direct functions
- And other minor clean ups and fixes

the second largest part of the diff.
- fpga subsystem driver updates and additions
- mhi subsystem updates
- Coresight driver updates
- gnss subsystem updates
- extcon driver updates
- icc subsystem updates
- fsi subsystem updates
