54ed144405 ring_buffer: Remove unneeded smp_wmb() before wakeup of reader benchmark
wake_up_process() has a memory barrier before doing anything, thus adding a
memory barrier before calling it is redundant.

919cd97999 tracing: Allow dumping traces without tracking trace started cpus
We don't init iter->started when dumping the ftrace buffer, and there's no
real need to do so - so allow skipping that check if the iter doesn't have
an initialized ->started cpumask.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

CPU0					CPU1

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

					ring_buffer_consumer_thread()
					  complete(&read_start);

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

CPU0					CPU1

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

					ring_buffer_consumer_thread()
					  complete(&read_start);

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

bdb5d0f904 tracing: Only benchmark the time tracepoints take if tracing is on
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.

3fdaf80f4a tracing: Implement event pid filtering
Add the necessary hooks to use the pids loaded in set_event_pid to filter
all the events enabled in the tracing instance that match the pids listed.

Two probes are added to both sched_switch and sched_wakeup tracepoints to be
called before other probes are called and after the other probes are called.
The first is used to set the necessary flags to let the probes know to test
if they should be traced or not.

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

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

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

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

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

7904b5c498 tracepoint: Give priority to probes of tracepoints
In order to guarantee that a probe will be called before other probes that
are attached to a tracepoint, there needs to be a mechanism to provide
priority of one probe over the others.

Adding a prio field to the struct tracepoint_func, which lets the probes be
sorted by the priority set in the structure. If no priority is specified,
then a priority of 10 is given (this is a macro, and perhaps may be changed
in the future).

Now probes may be added to affect other probes that are attached to a
tracepoint with a guaranteed order.

One use case would be to allow tracing of tracepoints be able to filter by
pid. A special (higher priority probe) may be added to the sched_switch
tracepoint and set the necessary flags of the other tracepoints to notify
them if they should be traced or not. In case a tracepoint is enabled at the
sched_switch tracepoint too, the order of the two are not random.

Extend module command for function filter selection with globbing.
It uses the same globbing as function filter.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Will trace your sound drivers only (if any).

.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.

37aea98b84 tracing: Add trace options for tracer options to instances
Add the tracer options to instances options directory as well. Only add the
options for tracers that are allowed to be enabled by an instance. But note,
that tracer options are global. That is, tracer options enabled in an
instance, also take affect at the top level and in other instances.

16270145ce tracing: Add trace options for core options to instances
Allow instances to have their own options, at least for the core options
(non tracer specific ones). There are a few global options that should not
be added to instances, like enabling of trace_printk, and the sched comm
recording, which do not have a specific trace instance associated to them.

9a38a8856f tracing: Add a method to pass in trace_array descriptor to option files
In preparation of having the multi buffer instances having their own trace
option flags, the trace option files needs a way to not only pass in the
flag they represent, but also the trace_array descriptor.

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 */

  tr = container_of(data, struct trace_array, trace_flags_index);

983f938ae6 tracing: Move trace_flags from global to a trace_array field
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.

41d9c0becc tracing: Always show all tracer options in the options directory
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.

a3418a364e tracing: Use TRACE_FLAGS macro to keep enums and strings matched
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"

that is shared between multiple tracers really should be a main option.

As the wakeup and irqsoff tracers both use the "display-graph" option, and
use it exactly the same way, move that option from the tracer options to the
main options and consolidate them.
