f306cc82a9 tracing: Update event filters for multibuffer
The trace event filters are still tied to event calls rather than
event files, which means you don't get what you'd expect when using
filters in the multibuffer case:

Before:

  # echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  bytes_alloc > 8192
  # mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1
  # echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  bytes_alloc > 2048
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  bytes_alloc > 2048

Setting the filter in tracing/instances/test1/events shouldn't affect
the same event in tracing/events as it does above.

After:

  # echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  bytes_alloc > 8192
  # mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1
  # echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  bytes_alloc > 8192
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter
  bytes_alloc > 2048

We'd like to just move the filter directly from ftrace_event_call to
ftrace_event_file, but there are a couple cases that don't yet have
multibuffer support and therefore have to continue using the current
event_call-based filters.  For those cases, a new USE_CALL_FILTER bit
is added to the event_call flags, whose main purpose is to keep the
old behavior for those cases until they can be updated with
multibuffer support; at that point, the USE_CALL_FILTER flag (and the
new associated call_filter_check_discard() function) can go away.

The multibuffer support also made filter_current_check_discard()
redundant, so this change removes that function as well and replaces
it with filter_check_discard() (or call_filter_check_discard() as
appropriate).

Move trace_module_nb under CONFIG_MODULES and kill the dummy

779c5e3791 tracing: Kill trace_create_file_ops() and friends
trace_create_file_ops() allocates the copy of id/filter/format/enable
file_operations to set "f_op->owner = mod" for fops_get().

However after the recent changes there is no reason to prevent rmmod
even if one of these files is opened. A file operation can do nothing
but fail after remove_event_file_dir() clears ->i_private for every
file removed by trace_module_remove_events().

Kill "struct ftrace_module_file_ops" and fix the compilation errors.

2ba64035d0 tracing: Add comment to describe special break case in probe_remove_event_call()
The "break" used in the do_for_each_event_file() is used as an optimization
as the loop is really a double loop. The loop searches all event files
for each trace_array. There's only one matching event file per trace_array
and after we find the event file for the trace_array, the break is used
to jump to the next trace_array and start the search there.

As this is not a standard way of using "break" in C code, it requires
a comment right before the break to let people know what is going on.

2816c551c7 tracing: trace_remove_event_call() should fail if call/file is in use
Change trace_remove_event_call(call) to return the error if this
call is active. This is what the callers assume but can't verify
outside of the tracing locks. Both trace_kprobe.c/trace_uprobe.c
need the additional changes, unregister_trace_probe() should abort
if trace_remove_event_call() fails.

The caller is going to free this call/file so we must ensure that
nobody can use them after trace_remove_event_call() succeeds.
debugfs should be fine after the previous changes and event_remove()
does TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER, but still there are 2 reasons why we need
the additional checks:

- There could be a perf_event(s) attached to this tp_event, so the
  patch checks ->perf_refcount.

- TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER can be suppressed by FTRACE_EVENT_FL_SOFT_MODE,
  so we simply check FTRACE_EVENT_FL_ENABLED protected by event_mutex.

bf682c3159 tracing: Change remove_event_file_dir() to clear "d_subdirs"->i_private
Change remove_event_file_dir() to clear ->i_private for every
file we are going to remove.

We need to check file->dir != NULL because event_create_dir()
can fail. debugfs_remove_recursive(NULL) is fine but the patch
moves it under the same check anyway for readability.

spin_lock(d_lock) and "d_inode != NULL" check are not needed
afaics, but I do not understand this code enough.

tracing_open_generic_file() and tracing_release_generic_file()
can go away, ftrace_enable_fops and ftrace_event_filter_fops()
use tracing_open_generic() but only to check tracing_disabled.

This fixes all races with event_remove() or instance_delete().
f_op->read/write/whatever can never use the freed file/call,
all event/* files were changed to check and use ->i_private
under event_mutex.

Note: this doesn't not fix other problems, event_remove() can
destroy the active ftrace_event_call, we need more changes but
those changes are completely orthogonal.

cd458ba9d5 tracing: Do not (ab)use trace_seq in event_id_read()
event_id_read() has no reason to kmalloc "struct trace_seq"
(more than PAGE_SIZE!), it can use a small buffer instead.

Note: "if (*ppos) return 0" looks strange and even wrong,
simple_read_from_buffer() handles ppos != 0 case corrrectly.

And it seems that almost every user of trace_seq in this file
should be converted too. Unless you use seq_open(), trace_seq
buys nothing compared to the raw buffer, but it needs a bit
more memory and code.

7710b63995 tracing: Simplify the iteration logic in f_start/f_next
f_next() looks overcomplicated, and it is not strictly correct
even if this doesn't matter.

Say, FORMAT_FIELD_SEPERATOR should not return NULL (means EOF)
if trace_get_fields() returns an empty list, we should simply
advance to FORMAT_PRINTFMT as we do when we find the end of list.

1. Change f_next() to return "struct list_head *" rather than
   "ftrace_event_field *", and change f_show() to do list_entry().

   This simplifies the code a bit, only f_show() needs to know
   about ftrace_event_field, and f_next() can play with ->prev
   directly

2. Change f_next() to not play with ->prev / return inside the
   switch() statement. It can simply set node = head/common_head,
   the prev-or-advance-to-the-next-magic below does all work.

While at it. f_start() looks overcomplicated too. I don't think
*pos == 0 makes sense as a separate case, just change this code
to do "while" instead of "do/while".

The patch also moves f_start() down, close to f_stop(). This is
purely cosmetic, just to make the locking added by the next patch
more clear/visible.

2a6c24afab tracing: Fix race between deleting buffer and setting events
While analyzing the code, I discovered that there's a potential race between
deleting a trace instance and setting events. There are a few races that can
occur if events are being traced as the buffer is being deleted. Mostly the
problem comes with freeing the descriptor used by the trace event callback.
To prevent problems like this, the events are disabled before the buffer is
deleted. The problem with the current solution is that the event_mutex is let
go between disabling the events and freeing the files, which means that the events
could be enabled again while the freeing takes place.

8e2e2fa471 tracing: Add trace_array_get/put() to event handling
Commit a695cb5816 "tracing: Prevent deleting instances when they are being read"
tried to fix a race between deleting a trace instance and reading contents
of a trace file. But it wasn't good enough. The following could crash the kernel:

 # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances
 # ( while :; do mkdir foo; rmdir foo; done ) &
 # ( while :; do echo 1 > foo/events/sched/sched_switch 2> /dev/null; done ) &

Luckily this can only be done by root user, but it should be fixed regardless.

The problem is that a delete of the file can happen after the write to the event
is opened, but before the enabling happens.

The solution is to make sure the trace_array is available before succeeding in
opening for write, and incerment the ref counter while opened.

Now the instance can be deleted when the events are writing to the buffer,
but the deletion of the instance will disable all events before the instance
is actually deleted.

3baa5e4cf2 tracing: Fix disabling of soft disable
The comment on the soft disable 'disable' case of
__ftrace_event_enable_disable() states that the soft disable bit
should be cleared in that case, but currently only the soft mode bit
is actually cleared.

This essentially leaves the standard non-soft-enable enable/disable
paths as the only way to clear the soft disable flag, but the soft
disable bit should also be cleared when removing a trigger with '!'.

Also, the SOFT_DISABLED bit should never be set if SOFT_MODE is
cleared.

This fixes the above discrepancies.

 # ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/
enable  filter  j

Notice that the 'i' is missing from the kprobes directory.

The console produces:

"Failed to create system directory kprobes"

This is because kprobes passes in a allocated name for the system
and the ftrace event subsystem saves off that name instead of creating
a duplicate for it. But the kprobes may free the system name making
the pointer to it invalid.

This bug was introduced by 92edca073c "tracing: Use direct field, type
and system names" which switched from using kstrdup() on the system name
in favor of just keeping apointer to it, as the internal ftrace event
system names are static and exist for the life of the computer being booted.

Instead of reverting back to duplicating system names again, we can use
core_kernel_data() to determine if the passed in name was allocated or
static. Then use the MSB of the ref_count to be a flag to keep track if
the name was allocated or not. Then we can still save from having to duplicate
strings that will always exist, but still copy the ones that may be freed.

register_ftrace_function_probe() returns the number of functions

a5b85bd155 tracing: Don't succeed if event_enable_func did not register anything
Return 0 instead of the number of activated ftrace function probes if
event_enable_func succeeded and return an error code if it failed or
did not register any functions. But it currently returns the number
of registered functions and if it didn't register anything, it returns 0,
but that is considered success.

This also fixes the return value. As if it succeeds, it returns the
number of functions that were enabled, which is returned back to
the user in ftrace_regex_write (the write() return code). If only
one function is enabled, then the return code of the write is one,
and this can confuse the user program in thinking it only wrote 1
byte.

3cd715de26 tracing: Add function probe triggers to enable/disable events
Add triggers to function tracer that lets an event get enabled or
disabled when a function is called:

format is:

 <function>:enable_event:<system>:<event>[:<count>]
 <function>:disable_event:<system>:<event>[:<count>]

 echo 'schedule:enable_event:sched:sched_switch' > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

Every time schedule is called, it will enable the sched_switch event.

 echo 'schedule:disable_event:sched:sched_switch:2' > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

The first two times schedule is called while the sched_switch
event is enabled, it will disable it. It will not count for a time
that the event is already disabled (or enabled for enable_event).

417944c4c7 tracing: Add a way to soft disable trace events
In order to let triggers enable or disable events, we need a 'soft'
method for doing so. For example, if a function probe is added that
lets a user enable or disable events when a function is called, that
change must be done without taking locks or a mutex, and definitely
it can't sleep. But the full enabling of a tracepoint is expensive.

By adding a 'SOFT_DISABLE' flag, and converting the flags to be updated
without the protection of a mutex (using set/clear_bit()), this soft
disable flag can be used to allow critical sections to enable or disable
events from being traced (after the event has been placed into "SOFT_MODE").

Some caveats though: The comm recorder (to map pids with a comm) can not
be soft disabled (yet). If you disable an event with with a "soft"
disable and wait a while before reading the trace, the comm cache may be
replaced and you'll get a bunch of <...> for comms in the trace.

Reading the "enable" file for an event that is disabled will now give
you "0*" where the '*' denotes that the tracepoint is still active but
the event itself is "disabled".

If debugging the kernel, and the developer wants to use
tracing_snapshot() in places where tracing_snapshot_alloc() may

Currently we do not know what buffer a module event was enabled in.
On unload, it is safest to clear all buffer instances, not just the

Todo: Clear only the buffer that the event was used in. The

575380da8b tracing: Only clear trace buffer on module unload if event was traced
Currently, when a module with events is unloaded, the trace buffer is
cleared. This is just a safety net in case the module might have some
strange callback when its event is outputted. But there's no reason
to reset the buffer if the module didn't have any of its events traced.

Add a flag to the event "call" structure called WAS_ENABLED and gets set
when the event is ever enabled, and this flag never gets cleared. When a
module gets unloaded, if any of its events have this flag set, then the
trace buffer will get cleared.

315326c16a tracing: Fix trace events build without modules
The new multi-buffers added a descriptor that kept track of module
events, and the directories they use, with struct ftace_module_file_ops.
This is used to add a ref count to keep modules from unloading while
their files are being accessed.

As the descriptor is only needed when CONFIG_MODULES is enabled, it
is only declared when the config is enabled. But that struct is
dereferenced in a few areas outside the #ifdef CONFIG_MODULES.

By adding some helper routines and moving code around a little,
events can be compiled again without modules.

d1a291437f tracing: Use kmem_cache_alloc instead of kmalloc in trace_events.c
The event structures used by the trace events are mostly persistent,
but they are also allocated by kmalloc, which is not the best at
allocating space for what is used. By converting these kmallocs
into kmem_cache_allocs, we can save over 50K of space that is
permanently allocated.

After boot we have:

 slab name          active allocated size
 ---------          ------ --------- ----
ftrace_event_file    979   1005     56   67    1
ftrace_event_field   2301   2310     48   77    1

The ftrace_event_file has at boot up 979 active objects out of
1005 allocated in the slabs. Each object is 56 bytes. In a normal
kmalloc, that would allocate 64 bytes for each object.

 1005 - 979  = 26 objects not used
 26 * 56 = 1456 bytes wasted

But if we used kmalloc:

 64 - 56 = 8 bytes unused per allocation
 8 * 979 = 7832 bytes wasted

 7832 - 1456 = 6376 bytes in savings

Doing the same for ftrace_event_field where there's 2301 objects
allocated in a slab that can hold 2310 with 48 bytes each we have:

 2310 - 2301 = 9 objects not used
 9 * 48 = 432 bytes wasted

A kmalloc would also use 64 bytes per object:

 64 - 48 = 16 bytes unused per allocation
 16 * 2301 = 36816 bytes wasted!

 36816 - 432 = 36384 bytes in savings

This change gives us a total of 42760 bytes in savings. At least
on my machine, but as there's a lot of these persistent objects
for all configurations that use trace points, this is a net win.

Thanks to Ezequiel Garcia for his trace_analyze presentation which
pointed out the wasted space in my code.

772482216f tracing: Get trace_events kernel command line working again
With the new descriptors used to allow multiple buffers in the
tracing directory added, the kernel command line parameter
trace_events=... no longer works. This is because the top level
(global) trace array now has a list of descriptors associated
with the events and the files in the debugfs directory. But in
early bootup, when the command line is processed and the events
enabled, the trace array list of events has not been set up yet.

Without the list of events in the trace array, the setting of
events to record will fail because it would not match any events.

The solution is to set up the top level array in two stages.
The first is to just add the ftrace file descriptors that just point
to the events. This will allow events to be enabled and start tracing.
The second stage is called after the filesystem is set up, and this
stage will create the debugfs event files and directories associated
with the trace array events.

0c8916c342 tracing: Add rmdir to remove multibuffer instances
Add a method to the hijacked dentry descriptor of the
"instances" directory to allow for rmdir to remove an
instance of a multibuffer.

Example:

  cd /debug/tracing/instances
  mkdir hello
  ls
hello/
  rmdir hello
  ls

Like the mkdir method, the i_mutex is dropped for the instances
directory. The instances directory is created at boot up and can
not be renamed or removed. The trace_types_lock mutex is used to
synchronize adding and removing of instances.

I've run several stress tests with different threads trying to
create and delete directories of the same name, and it has stood
up fine.

277ba04461 tracing: Add interface to allow multiple trace buffers
Add the interface ("instances" directory) to add multiple buffers
to ftrace. To create a new instance, simply do a mkdir in the
instances directory:

This will create a directory with the following:

 # cd instances
 # mkdir foo
 # ls foo
buffer_size_kb        free_buffer  trace_clock    trace_pipe
buffer_total_size_kb  set_event    trace_marker   tracing_enabled
events/               trace        trace_options  tracing_on

Currently only events are able to be set, and there isn't a way
to delete a buffer when one is created (yet).

Note, the i_mutex lock is dropped from the parent "instances"
directory during the mkdir operation. As the "instances" directory
can not be renamed or deleted (created on boot), I do not see
any harm in dropping the lock. The creation of the sub directories
is protected by trace_types_lock mutex, which only lets one
instance get into the code path at a time. If two tasks try to
create or delete directories of the same name, only one will occur
and the other will fail with -EEXIST.

ae63b31e4d tracing: Separate out trace events from global variables
The trace events for ftrace are all defined via global variables.
The arrays of events and event systems are linked to a global list.
This prevents multiple users of the event system (what to enable and
what not to).

By adding descriptors to represent the event/file relation, as well
as to which trace_array descriptor they are associated with, allows
for more than one set of events to be defined. Once the trace events
files have a link between the trace event and the trace_array they
are associated with, we can create multiple trace_arrays that can
record separate events in separate buffers.

b000c8065a tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events
Due to a userspace issue with PowerTop v2beta, which hardcoded
the offset of event fields that it was using, it broke when
we removed the Big Kernel Lock counter from the event header.

 (commit e6e1e2593 "tracing: Remove lock_depth from event entry")

Because this broke userspace, it was determined that we must
keep those 4 bytes around.

 (commit a3a4a5acd "Regression: partial revert "tracing: Remove lock_depth from event entry"")

This unfortunately wastes space in the ring buffer. 4 bytes per
event, where a lot of events are just 24 bytes. That's 16% of the
buffer wasted. A million events will add 4 megs of white space
into the buffer.

It was later noticed that PowerTop v2beta could not work on systems
where the kernel was 64 bit but the userspace was 32 bits.
The reason was because the offsets are different between the
two and the hard coded offset of one would not work with the other.

With PowerTop v2 final, it implemented the same interface that both
perf and trace-cmd use. That is, it reads the format file of
the event to find the offsets of the fields it needs. This fixes
the problem with running powertop on a 32 bit userspace running
on a 64 bit kernel. It also no longer requires the 4 byte padding.

As PowerTop v2 has been out for a while, and is included in all
major distributions, it is time that we can safely remove the
4 bytes of padding. Users of PowerTop v2beta should upgrade to
PowerTop v2 final.

0d5c6e1c19 tracing: Use irq_work for wake ups and remove *_nowake_*() functions
Have the ring buffer commit function use the irq_work infrastructure to
wake up any waiters waiting on the ring buffer for new data. The irq_work
was created for such a purpose, where doing the actual wake up at the
time of adding data is too dangerous, as an event or function trace may
be in the midst of the work queue locks and cause deadlocks. The irq_work
will either delay the action to the next timer interrupt, or trigger an IPI
to itself forcing an interrupt to do the work (in a safe location).

With irq_work, all ring buffer commits can safely do wakeups, removing
the need for the ring buffer commit "nowake" variants, which were used
by events and function tracing. All commits can now safely use the
normal commit, and the "nowake" variants can be removed.

This allows to capture trace events from an earlier point

Note that, in order to enable events at core_initcall,
it's necessary to move init_ftrace_syscalls() from
