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.

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.

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.

In preparation for the multi buffer instances to have their own trace_flags,

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);

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.

In the effort to move the global trace_flags to the tracing instances, the

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"

There was a time where the function tracing would disable interrupts unless
specifically told not to, where it would only disable preemption. With the
new lockless code, the function tracing never disalbes interrupts and just
uses disabling of preemption. Remove the option "ftrace_preempt" as it does
nothing anyway.

In order to facilitate making all tracer options visible even when the
tracer is not active, we need to get rid of duplicate options. Any option
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.

By extending the filter rules by more generic fields
we can write triggers filters like

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

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.

A fine granulity support for delay would be very useful when profiling
VM logics, such as page allocation including page reclaim and memory
compaction with function graph.
Thus, this patch adds two additional marks with two changes.
- 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
to cover all supported marks.

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.

This patch extends tracing_thresh functionality to function profile tracer.
If tracing_thresh is set, print those entries only,
whose average is > tracing thresh.

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.

Functions in ring-buffer.c have gotten interleaved between different
use cases. Move the functions around to get like functions closer
together. This may or may not help gcc keep cache locality, but it
makes it a little easier to work with the code.

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.

Requiring a extended time stamp is an uncommon occurrence, and it is
best to do it out of line when needed.
Add a noinline function that handles the extended timestamp and
have it called with an unlikely to completely move it out of the
fast path.

Add rb_event_info descriptor to pass event info to functions a bit
easier than using a bunch of parameters. This will also allow for
changing the code around a bit to find better fast paths.

In ftrace_dump, for disabling buffer, iter.tr->trace_buffer.data is used.
But for enabling, iter.trace_buffer->data is used.
Even though, both point to same buffer, for readability, same convention
should be used.

Currently exception occures due to access beyond buffer_iter
range while using index of cpu bigger than num_possible_cpus().
Below there is an example for such exception when we use
cpus 0,1,16,17.
In order to fix buffer allocation size for non-continuous cpu ids
we allocate according to the max cpu id and not according to the
amount of possible cpus.
Example:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/per_cpu/cpu1/trace
Path: /bin/busybox
