- Fix eventfs to check creating new files for events with names greater than NAME_MAX. The eventfs lookup needs to check the return result of simple_lookup(). - Fix the ring buffer to check the proper max data size. Events must be able to fit on the ring buffer sub-buffer, if it cannot, then it fails to be written and the logic to add the event is avoided. The code to check if an event can fit failed to add the possible absolute timestamp which may make the event not be able to fit. This causes the ring buffer to go into an infinite loop trying to find a sub-buffer that would fit the event. Luckily, there's a check that will bail out if it looped over a 1000 times and it also warns. The real fix is not to add the absolute timestamp to an event that is starting at the beginning of a sub-buffer because it uses the sub-buffer timestamp. By avoiding the timestamp at the start of the sub-buffer allows events that pass the first check to always find a sub-buffer that it can fit on. - Have large events that do not fit on a trace_seq to print "LINE TOO BIG" like it does for the trace_pipe instead of what it does now which is to silently drop the output. - Fix a memory leak of forgetting to free the spare page that is saved by a trace instance. - Update the size of the snapshot buffer when the main buffer is updated if the snapshot buffer is allocated. - Fix ring buffer timestamp logic by removing all the places that tried to put the before_stamp back to the write stamp so that the next event doesn't add an absolute timestamp. But each of these updates added a race where by making the two timestamp equal, it was validating the write_stamp so that it can be incorrectly used for calculating the delta of an event. - There's a temp buffer used for printing the event that was using the event data size for allocation when it needed to use the size of the entire event (meta-data and payload data) - For hardening, use "%.*s" for printing the trace_marker output, to limit the amount that is printed by the size of the event. This was discovered by development that added a bug that truncated the '\0' and caused a crash. - Fix a use-after-free bug in the use of the histogram files when an instance is being removed. - Remove a useless update in the rb_try_to_discard of the write_stamp. The before_stamp was already changed to force the next event to add an absolute timestamp that the write_stamp is not used. But the write_stamp is modified again using an unneeded 64-bit cmpxchg. - Fix several races in the 32-bit implementation of the rb_time_cmpxchg() that does a 64-bit cmpxchg. - While looking at fixing the 64-bit cmpxchg, I noticed that because the ring buffer uses normal cmpxchg, and this can be done in NMI context, there's some architectures that do not have a working cmpxchg in NMI context. For these architectures, fail recording events that happen in NMI context. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZX0nChQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qlOMAQD3iegTcceQl9lAsroa3tb3xdweC1GP 51MsX5athxSyoQEAutI/2pBCtLFXgTLMHAMd5F23EM1U9rha7W0myrnvKQY= =d3bS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.7-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix eventfs to check creating new files for events with names greater than NAME_MAX.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
