<id>urn:sha1:0531e84bc8ac750b7a15c18d478804c0d98f0a86</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 9913d5745bd720c4266805c8d29952a3702e4eca upstream.

All internal use cases for tracepoint_probe_register() is set to not ever
be called with the same function and data. If it is, it is considered a
bug, as that means the accounting of handling tracepoints is corrupted.
If the function and data for a tracepoint is already registered when
tracepoint_probe_register() is called, it will call WARN_ON_ONCE() and
return with EEXISTS.

The BPF system call can end up calling tracepoint_probe_register() with
the same data, which now means that this can trigger the warning because
of a user space process. As WARN_ON_ONCE() should not be called because
user space called a system call with bad data, there needs to be a way to
register a tracepoint without triggering a warning.

Enter tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist(), which can be called, but will
not cause a WARN_ON() if the probe already exists. It will still error out
with EEXIST, which will then be sent to the user space that performed the
BPF system call.

This keeps the previous testing for issues with other users of the
tracepoint code, while letting BPF call it with duplicated data and not
warn about it.

<title>tracepoint: Fix race between tracing and removing tracepoint</title>

commit c8b186a8d54d7e12d28e9f9686cb00ff18fc2ab2 upstream.

When executing a tracepoint, the tracepoint's func is dereferenced twice -
in __DO_TRACE() (where the returned pointer is checked) and later on in
__traceiter_##_name where the returned pointer is dereferenced without
checking which leads to races against tracepoint_removal_sync() and
crashes.

This adds a check before referencing the pointer in tracepoint_ptr_deref.

Use a more generic form for __section that requires quotes to avoid
complications with clang and gcc differences.

Remove the quote operator # from compiler_attributes.h __section macro.

Convert all unquoted __section(foo) uses to quoted __section("foo").
Also convert __attribute__((section("foo"))) uses to __section("foo")
even if the __attribute__ has multiple list entry forms.

Conversion done using the script at:

Stephen Rothwell reported:

&gt; Exported symbols need to be &lt;= (64 - sizeof(Elf_Addr)) long.  This is
&gt; presumably 56 on 64 bit arches and the above symbol (including the '.')
&gt; is 56 characters long.

Shorten the tracepoint symbol name.

Currently the tracepoint site will iterate a vector and issue indirect
calls to however many handlers are registered (ie. the vector is
long).

Using static_call() it is possible to optimize this for the common
case of only having a single handler registered. In this case the
static_call() can directly call this handler. Otherwise, if the vector
is longer than 1, call a function that iterates the whole vector like
the current code.

Just a small cleanup while I was touching this header.
compiler_attributes.h does feature detection of these __attributes__(())
and provides more concise ways to invoke them.

<title>tracepoint: Mark __tracepoint_string's __used</title>

__tracepoint_string's have their string data stored in .rodata, and an
address to that data stored in the "__tracepoint_str" section. Functions
that refer to those strings refer to the symbol of the address. Compiler
optimization can replace those address references with references
directly to the string data. If the address doesn't appear to have other
uses, then it appears dead to the compiler and is removed. This can
break the /tracing/printk_formats sysfs node which iterates the
addresses stored in the "__tracepoint_str" section.

Like other strings stored in custom sections in this header, mark these
__used to inform the compiler that there are other non-obvious users of
the address, so they should still be emitted.

This macro was intentionally broken so that the kernel code is not
poluted with such noargs macro used simply as markers. This use case
can be satisfied by using dummy no inline functions. Just remove it.

Sometimes we want to define a tracepoint as a do-nothing function.
So I introduce TRACE_EVENT_NOP, DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS_NOP and
DEFINE_EVENT_NOP for this kind of usage.
