Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Optionally, provide an index of possible printk messages via
<debugfs>/printk/index/. It can be used when monitoring important
kernel messages on a farm of various hosts. The monitor has to be
updated when some messages has changed or are not longer available by
a newly deployed kernel.
- Add printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter. It allows to
generate crash dump even with slow consoles in a reasonable time
frame.
- Remove printk_safe buffers. The messages are always stored directly
to the main logbuffer, even in NMI or recursive context. Also it
allows to serialize syslog operations by a mutex instead of a spin
lock.
- Misc clean up and build fixes.

All NMI contexts are handled the same as the safe context: store the
message and defer printing. There is no need to have special NMI
context tracking for this. Using in_nmi() is enough.
There are several parts of the kernel that are manually calling into
the printk NMI context tracking in order to cause general printk
deferred printing:
arch/arm/kernel/smp.c
arch/powerpc/kexec/crash.c
kernel/trace/trace.c
For arm/kernel/smp.c and powerpc/kexec/crash.c, provide a new
function pair printk_deferred_enter/exit that explicitly achieves the
same objective.
For ftrace, remove the printk context manipulation completely. It was
added in commit 03fc7f9c99 ("printk/nmi: Prevent deadlock when
accessing the main log buffer in NMI"). The purpose was to enforce
storing messages directly into the ring buffer even in NMI context.
It really should have only modified the behavior in NMI context.
There is no need for a special behavior any longer. All messages are
always stored directly now. The console deferring is handled
transparently in vprintk().

Currently the histogram logic allows the user to write "cpu" in as an
event field, and it will record the CPU that the event happened on.
The problem with this is that there's a lot of events that have "cpu"
as a real field, and using "cpu" as the CPU it ran on, makes it
impossible to run histograms on the "cpu" field of events.
For example, if I want to have a histogram on the count of the
workqueue_queue_work event on its cpu field, running:
># echo 'hist:keys=cpu' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger
Gives a misleading and wrong result.
Change the command to "common_cpu" as no event should have "common_*"
fields as that's a reserved name for fields used by all events. And
this makes sense here as common_cpu would be a field used by all events.
Now we can even do:
># echo 'hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu if cpu < 100' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger
># cat events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/hist
# event histogram
#
# trigger info: hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu:vals=hitcount:sort=hitcount:size=2048 if cpu < 100 [active]
#
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 7, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 1
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 2
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 2
{ common_cpu: 1, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 4
{ common_cpu: 6, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 4
{ common_cpu: 5, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 14
{ common_cpu: 4, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 26
{ common_cpu: 0, cpu: 0 } hitcount: 39
{ common_cpu: 2, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 184
Now for backward compatibility, I added a trick. If "cpu" is used, and
the field is not found, it will fall back to "common_cpu" and work as
it did before. This way, it will still work for old programs that use
"cpu" to get the actual CPU, but if the event has a "cpu" as a field, it
will get that event's "cpu" field, which is probably what it wants
anyway.
I updated the tracefs/README to include documentation about both the
common_timestamp and the common_cpu. This way, if that text is present in
the README, then an application can know that common_cpu is supported over
just plain "cpu".

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Added option for per CPU threads to the hwlat tracer
- Have hwlat tracer handle hotplug CPUs
- New tracer: osnoise, that detects latency caused by interrupts,
softirqs and scheduling of other tasks.
- Added timerlat tracer that creates a thread and measures in detail
what sources of latency it has for wake ups.
- Removed the "success" field of the sched_wakeup trace event. This has
been hardcoded as "1" since 2015, no tooling should be looking at it
now. If one exists, we can revert this commit, fix that tool and try
to remove it again in the future.
- tgid mapping fixed to handle more than PID_MAX_DEFAULT pids/tgids.
- New boot command line option "tp_printk_stop", as tp_printk causes
trace events to write to console. When user space starts, this can
easily live lock the system. Having a boot option to stop just after
boot up is useful to prevent that from happening.
- Have ftrace_dump_on_oops boot command line option take numbers that
match the numbers shown in /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops.
- Bootconfig clean ups, fixes and enhancements.
- New ktest script that tests bootconfig options.
- Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() to register a tracepoint
without triggering a WARN*() if it already exists. BPF has a path
from user space that can do this. All other paths are considered a
bug.

Currently tgid_map is sized at PID_MAX_DEFAULT entries, which means that
on systems where pid_max is configured higher than PID_MAX_DEFAULT the
ftrace record-tgid option doesn't work so well. Any tasks with PIDs
higher than PID_MAX_DEFAULT are simply not recorded in tgid_map, and
don't show up in the saved_tgids file.
In particular since systemd v243 & above configure pid_max to its
highest possible 1<<22 value by default on 64 bit systems this renders
the record-tgids option of little use.
Increase the size of tgid_map to the configured pid_max instead,
allowing it to cover the full range of PIDs up to the maximum value of
PID_MAX_LIMIT if the system is configured that way.
On 64 bit systems with pid_max == PID_MAX_LIMIT this will increase the
size of tgid_map from 256KiB to 16MiB. Whilst this 64x increase in
memory overhead sounds significant 64 bit systems are presumably best
placed to accommodate it, and since tgid_map is only allocated when the
record-tgid option is actually used presumably the user would rather it
spends sufficient memory to actually record the tgids they expect.
The size of tgid_map could also increase for CONFIG_BASE_SMALL=y
configurations, but these seem unlikely to be systems upon which people
are both configuring a large pid_max and running ftrace with record-tgid
anyway.
Of note is that we only allocate tgid_map once, the first time that the
record-tgid option is enabled. Therefore its size is only set once, to
the value of pid_max at the time the record-tgid option is first
enabled. If a user increases pid_max after that point, the saved_tgids
file will not contain entries for any tasks with pids beyond the earlier
value of pid_max.

The tgid_map array records a mapping from pid to tgid, where the index
of an entry within the array is the pid & the value stored at that index
is the tgid.
The saved_tgids_next() function iterates over pointers into the tgid_map
array & dereferences the pointers which results in the tgid, but then it
passes that dereferenced value to trace_find_tgid() which treats it as a
pid & does a further lookup within the tgid_map array. It seems likely
that the intent here was to skip over entries in tgid_map for which the
recorded tgid is zero, but instead we end up skipping over entries for
which the thread group leader hasn't yet had its own tgid recorded in
tgid_map.
A minimal fix would be to remove the call to trace_find_tgid, turning:
if (trace_find_tgid(*ptr))
into:
if (*ptr)
..but it seems like this logic can be much simpler if we simply let
seq_read() iterate over the whole tgid_map array & filter out empty
entries by returning SEQ_SKIP from saved_tgids_show(). Here we take that
approach, removing the incorrect logic here entirely.

The hwlat detector and (in preparation for) the osnoise/timerlat tracers
have a set of u64 parameters that the user can read/write via tracefs.
For instance, we have hwlat_detector's window and width.
To reduce the code duplication, hwlat's window and width share the same
read function. However, they do not share the write functions because
they do different parameter checks. For instance, the width needs to
be smaller than the window, while the window needs to be larger
than the window. The same pattern repeats on osnoise/timerlat, and
a large portion of the code was devoted to the write function.
Despite having different checks, the write functions have the same
structure:
read a user-space buffer
take the lock that protects the value
check for minimum and maximum acceptable values
save the value
release the lock
return success or error
To reduce the code duplication also in the write functions, this patch
provides a generic read and write implementation for u64 values that
need to be within some minimum and/or maximum parameters, while
(potentially) being protected by a lock.
To use this interface, the structure trace_min_max_param needs to be
filled:
struct trace_min_max_param {
struct mutex *lock;
u64 *val;
u64 *min;
u64 *max;
};
The desired value is stored on the variable pointed by *val. If *min
points to a minimum acceptable value, it will be checked during the
write operation. Likewise, if *max points to a maximum allowable value,
it will be checked during the write operation. Finally, if *lock points
to a mutex, it will be taken at the beginning of the operation and
released at the end.
The definition of a trace_min_max_param needs to passed as the
(private) *data for tracefs_create_file(), and the trace_min_max_fops
(added by this patch) as the *fops file_operations.

A while ago, when the "trace" file was opened, tracing was stopped, and
code was added to stop recording the comms to saved_cmdlines, for mapping

and there's no reason to not trace it if the trace file is opened.

The saved_cmdlines is used to map pids to the task name, such that the
output of the tracing does not just show pids, but also gives a human
readable name for the task.
If the name is not mapped, the output looks like this:
<...>-1316 [005] ...2 132.044039: ...
Instead of this:
gnome-shell-1316 [005] ...2 132.044039: ...
The names are updated when tracing is running, but are skipped if tracing
is stopped. Unfortunately, this stops the recording of the names if the
top level tracer is stopped, and not if there's other tracers active.
The recording of a name only happens when a new event is written into a
ring buffer, so there is no need to test if tracing is on or not. If
tracing is off, then no event is written and no need to test if tracing is
off or not.
Remove the check, as it hides the names of tasks for events in the
instance buffers.

When filtering is enabled, the event is copied into a temp buffer instead
of being written into the ring buffer directly, because the discarding of
events from the ring buffer is very expensive, and doing the extra copy is
much faster than having to discard most of the time.
As that logic is subtle, add comments to explain in more detail to what is
going on and how it works.

When filtering trace events, a temp buffer is used because the extra copy
from the temp buffer into the ring buffer is still faster than the direct
write into the ring buffer followed by a discard if the filter does not
match.
But the data that can be stored in the temp buffer is a PAGE_SIZE minus the
ring buffer event header. The calculation of that header size is complex,
but using the helper macro "struct_size()" can simplify it.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"New feature:
- A new "func-no-repeats" option in tracefs/options directory.
When set the function tracer will detect if the current function
being traced is the same as the previous one, and instead of
recording it, it will keep track of the number of times that the
function is repeated in a row. And when another function is
recorded, it will write a new event that shows the function that
repeated, the number of times it repeated and the time stamp of
when the last repeated function occurred.
Enhancements:
- In order to implement the above "func-no-repeats" option, the ring
buffer timestamp can now give the accurate timestamp of the event
as it is being recorded, instead of having to record an absolute
timestamp for all events. This helps the histogram code which no
longer needs to waste ring buffer space.
- New validation logic to make sure all trace events that access
dereferenced pointers do so in a safe way, and will warn otherwise.
Fixes:
- No longer limit the PIDs of tasks that are recorded for
"saved_cmdlines" to PID_MAX_DEFAULT (32768), as systemd now allows
for a much larger range. This caused the mapping of PIDs to the
task names to be dropped for all tasks with a PID greater than
32768.
- Change trace_clock_global() to never block. This caused a deadlock.
Clean ups:
- Typos, prototype fixes, and removing of duplicate or unused code.

...
The default max PID is set by PID_MAX_DEFAULT, and the tracing
infrastructure uses this number to map PIDs to the comm names of the
tasks, such output of the trace can show names from the recorded PIDs in
the ring buffer. This mapping is also exported to user space via the
"saved_cmdlines" file in the tracefs directory.
But currently the mapping expects the PIDs to be less than
PID_MAX_DEFAULT, which is the default maximum and not the real maximum.
Recently, systemd will increases the maximum value of a PID on the system,
and when tasks are traced that have a PID higher than PID_MAX_DEFAULT, its
comm is not recorded. This leads to the entire trace to have "<...>" as
the comm name, which is pretty useless.
Instead, keep the array mapping the size of PID_MAX_DEFAULT, but instead
of just mapping the index to the comm, map a mask of the PID
(PID_MAX_DEFAULT - 1) to the comm, and find the full PID from the
map_cmdline_to_pid array (that already exists).
This bug goes back to the beginning of ftrace, but hasn't been an issue
until user space started increasing the maximum value of PIDs.

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The usual updates from the irq departement:
Core changes:
- Provide IRQF_NO_AUTOEN as a flag for request*_irq() so drivers can
be cleaned up which either use a seperate mechanism to prevent
auto-enable at request time or have a racy mechanism which disables
the interrupt right after request.
- Get rid of the last usage of irq_create_identity_mapping() and
remove the interface.
- An overhaul of tasklet_disable().
Most usage sites of tasklet_disable() are in task context and
usually in cleanup, teardown code pathes. tasklet_disable()
spinwaits for a tasklet which is currently executed. That's not
only a problem for PREEMPT_RT where this can lead to a live lock
when the disabling task preempts the softirq thread. It's also
problematic in context of virtualization when the vCPU which runs
the tasklet is scheduled out and the disabling code has to spin
wait until it's scheduled back in.
There are a few code pathes which invoke tasklet_disable() from
non-sleepable context. For these a new disable variant which still
spinwaits is provided which allows to switch tasklet_disable() to a
sleep wait mechanism. For the atomic use cases this does not solve
the live lock issue on PREEMPT_RT. That is mitigated by blocking on
the RT specific softirq lock.
- The PREEMPT_RT specific implementation of softirq processing and
local_bh_disable/enable().
On RT enabled kernels soft interrupt processing happens always in
task context and all interrupt handlers, which are not explicitly
marked to be invoked in hard interrupt context are forced into task
context as well. This allows to protect against softirq processing
with a per CPU lock, which in turn allows to make BH disabled
regions preemptible.
Most of the softirq handling code is still shared. The RT/non-RT
specific differences are addressed with a set of inline functions
which provide the context specific functionality. The
local_bh_disable() / local_bh_enable() mechanism are obviously
seperate.

Pointers in events that are printed are unhashed if the flags allow it,
and the logic to do so is called before processing the event output from
the raw ring buffer. In most cases, this is done when a user reads one of
the trace files.
But if tp_printk is added on the kernel command line, this logic is done
for trace events when they are triggered, and their output goes out via
printk. The unhash logic (and even the validation of the output) did not
support the tp_printk output, and would crash.

The field is used to keep track of the consecutive (on the same CPU) calls
of a single function. This information is needed in order to consolidate
the function tracing record in the cases when a single function is called
number of times.

Since bitmap_parse() from cpumask_parse_user() calls find_next_bit(),
any alloc_cpumask_var() + cpumask_parse_user() sequence has possibility
that find_next_bit() accesses uninitialized cpu mask variable. Fix this
problem by replacing alloc_cpumask_var() with zalloc_cpumask_var().

Needed to merge trace/ftrace/urgent to get:
Commit 59300b36f8 ("ftrace: Check if pages were allocated before calling free_pages()")
To clean up the code that is affected by it as well.
Commit cbc3b92ce0 fixed an issue to modify the macros of the stack trace
event so that user space could parse it properly. Originally the stack
trace format to user space showed that the called stack was a dynamic
array. But it is not actually a dynamic array, in the way that other
dynamic event arrays worked, and this broke user space parsing for it. The
update was to make the array look to have 8 entries in it. Helper
functions were added to make it parse it correctly, as the stack was
dynamic, but was determined by the size of the event stored.
Although this fixed user space on how it read the event, it changed the
internal structure used for the stack trace event. It changed the array
size from [0] to [8] (added 8 entries). This increased the size of the
stack trace event by 8 words. The size reserved on the ring buffer was the
size of the stack trace event plus the number of stack entries found in
the stack trace. That commit caused the amount to be 8 more than what was
needed because it did not expect the caller field to have any size. This
produced 8 entries of garbage (and reading random data) from the stack
trace event:
<idle>-0 [002] d... 1976396.837549: <stack trace>
=> trace_event_raw_event_sched_switch
=> __traceiter_sched_switch
=> __schedule
=> schedule_idle
=> do_idle
=> cpu_startup_entry
=> secondary_startup_64_no_verify
=> 0xc8c5e150ffff93de
=> 0xffff93de
=> 0

=> 0xc8c5e17800000000
=> 0x1f30affff93de
=> 0x00000004
=> 0x200000000
Instead, subtract the size of the caller field from the size of the event
to make sure that only the amount needed to store the stack trace is
reserved.

It is a common mistake for someone writing a trace event to save a pointer
to a string in the TP_fast_assign() and then display that string pointer
in the TP_printk() with %s. The problem is that those two events may happen
a long time apart, where the source of the string may no longer exist.
The proper way to handle displaying any string that is not guaranteed to be
in the kernel core rodata section, is to copy it into the ring buffer via
the __string(), __assign_str() and __get_str() helper macros.
Add a check at run time while displaying the TP_printk() of events to make
sure that every %s referenced is safe to dereference, and if it is not,
trigger a warning and only show the address of the pointer, and the
dereferenced string if it can be safely retrieved with a
strncpy_from_kernel_nofault() call.
In order to not have to copy the parsing of vsnprintf() formats, or even
exporting its code, the verifier relies on vsnprintf() being able to
modify the va_list that is passed to it, and it remains modified after it
is called. This is the case for some architectures like x86_64, but other
architectures like x86_32 pass the va_list to vsnprintf() as a value not a
reference, and the verifier can not use it to parse the non string
arguments. Thus, at boot up, it is checked if vsnprintf() modifies the
passed in va_list or not, and a static branch will disable the verifier if
it's not compatible.

Add a tracing_event_time_stamp() API that checks if the event passed in is
not on the ring buffer but a pointer to the per CPU trace_buffered_event
which does not have its time stamp set yet.
If it is a pointer to the trace_buffered_event, then just return the
current time stamp that the ring buffer would produce.
Otherwise, return the time stamp from the event.

Currently, the trace histograms relies on it using absolute time stamps to
trigger the tracing to not use the temp buffer if filters are set. That's
because the histograms need the full timestamp that is saved in the ring
buffer. That is no longer the case, as the ring_buffer_event_time_stamp()
can now return the time stamp for all events without all triggering a full
absolute time stamp.
Now that the absolute time stamp is an unrelated dependency to not using
the filters. There's nothing about having absolute timestamps to keep from
using the filter buffer. Instead, change the interface to explicitly state
to disable filter buffering that the histogram logic can use.

The ring_buffer_event_time_stamp() is going to be updated to extract the
time stamp for the event without needing it to be set to have absolute
values for all events. But to do so, it needs the buffer that the event is
on as the buffer saves information for the event before it is committed to
the buffer.
If the trace buffer is disabled, a temporary buffer is used, and there's
no access to this buffer from the current histogram triggers, even though
it is passed to the trace event code.
Pass the buffer that the event is on all the way down to the histogram
triggers.
