tracing: Fix memory leak of instance function hash filters

2018-12-21T13:09:51Z

commit 2840f84f74035e5a535959d5f17269c69fa6edc5 upstream. The following commands will cause a memory leak: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # mkdir instances/foo # echo schedule > instance/foo/set_ftrace_filter # rmdir instances/foo The reason is that the hashes that hold the filters to set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace are not freed if they contain any data on the instance and the instance is removed. Found by kmemleak detector.

tracing: Fix memory leak in set_trigger_filter()

2018-12-21T13:09:51Z

commit 3cec638b3d793b7cacdec5b8072364b41caeb0e1 upstream. When create_event_filter() fails in set_trigger_filter(), the filter may still be allocated and needs to be freed. The caller expects the data->filter to be updated with the new filter, even if the new filter failed (we could add an error message by setting set_str parameter of create_event_filter(), but that's another update). But because the error would just exit, filter was left hanging and nothing could free it. Found by kmemleak detector.

bpf: fix check of allowed specifiers in bpf_trace_printk

2018-12-17T20:55:10Z

[ Upstream commit 1efb6ee3edea57f57f9fb05dba8dcb3f7333f61f ] A format string consisting of "%p" or "%s" followed by an invalid specifier (e.g. "%p%\n" or "%s%") could pass the check which would make format_decode (lib/vsprintf.c) to warn.

tracing: Skip more functions when doing stack tracing of events

2018-11-10T15:41:35Z

[ Upstream commit be54f69c26193de31053190761e521903b89d098 ] # echo 1 > options/stacktrace # echo 1 > events/sched/sched_switch/enable # cat trace -0 [002] d..2 1982.525169: => save_stack_trace => __ftrace_trace_stack => trace_buffer_unlock_commit_regs => event_trigger_unlock_commit => trace_event_buffer_commit => trace_event_raw_event_sched_switch => __schedule => schedule => schedule_preempt_disabled => cpu_startup_entry => start_secondary The above shows that we are seeing 6 functions before ever making it to the caller of the sched_switch event. # echo stacktrace > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger # cat trace -0 [002] d..3 2146.335208: => trace_event_buffer_commit => trace_event_raw_event_sched_switch => __schedule => schedule => schedule_preempt_disabled => cpu_startup_entry => start_secondary The stacktrace trigger isn't as bad, because it adds its own skip to the stacktracing, but still has two events extra. One issue is that if the stacktrace passes its own "regs" then there should be no addition to the skip, as the regs will not include the functions being called. This was an issue that was fixed by commit 7717c6be6999 ("tracing: Fix stacktrace skip depth in trace_buffer_unlock_commit_regs()" as adding the skip number for kprobes made the probes not have any stack at all. But since this is only an issue when regs is being used, a skip should be added if regs is NULL. Now we have: # echo 1 > options/stacktrace # echo 1 > events/sched/sched_switch/enable # cat trace -0 [000] d..2 1297.676333: => __schedule => schedule => schedule_preempt_disabled => cpu_startup_entry => rest_init => start_kernel => x86_64_start_reservations => x86_64_start_kernel # echo stacktrace > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger # cat trace -0 [002] d..3 1370.759745: => __schedule => schedule => schedule_preempt_disabled => cpu_startup_entry => start_secondary And kprobes are not touched.

ring-buffer: Allow for rescheduling when removing pages

2018-09-29T10:08:52Z

commit 83f365554e47997ec68dc4eca3f5dce525cd15c3 upstream. When reducing ring buffer size, pages are removed by scheduling a work item on each CPU for the corresponding CPU ring buffer. After the pages are removed from ring buffer linked list, the pages are free()d in a tight loop. The loop does not give up CPU until all pages are removed. In a worst case behavior, when lot of pages are to be freed, it can cause system stall. After the pages are removed from the list, the free() can happen while the work is rescheduled. Call cond_resched() in the loop to prevent the system hangup.

uprobes: Use synchronize_rcu() not synchronize_sched()

2018-09-09T18:04:34Z

commit 016f8ffc48cb01d1e7701649c728c5d2e737d295 upstream. While debugging another bug, I was looking at all the synchronize*() functions being used in kernel/trace, and noticed that trace_uprobes was using synchronize_sched(), with a comment to synchronize with {u,ret}_probe_trace_func(). When looking at those functions, the data is protected with "rcu_read_lock()" and not with "rcu_read_lock_sched()". This is using the wrong synchronize_*() function.

tracing/blktrace: Fix to allow setting same value

2018-09-09T18:04:34Z

commit 757d9140072054528b13bbe291583d9823cde195 upstream. Masami Hiramatsu reported: Current trace-enable attribute in sysfs returns an error if user writes the same setting value as current one, e.g. # cat /sys/block/sda/trace/enable 0 # echo 0 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy But this is not a preferred behavior, it should ignore if new setting is same as current one. This fixes the problem as below. # cat /sys/block/sda/trace/enable 0 # echo 0 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180816103802.08678002@gandalf.local.home Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jens Axboe Cc: linux-block@vger.kernel.org Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: cd649b8bb830d ("blktrace: remove sysfs_blk_trace_enable_show/store()") Reported-by: Masami Hiramatsu Tested-by: Masami Hiramatsu Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tracing: Do not call start/stop() functions when tracing_on does not change

2018-09-09T18:04:34Z

commit f143641bfef9a4a60c57af30de26c63057e7e695 upstream. Currently, when one echo's in 1 into tracing_on, the current tracer's "start()" function is executed, even if tracing_on was already one. This can lead to strange side effects. One being that if the hwlat tracer is enabled, and someone does "echo 1 > tracing_on" into tracing_on, the hwlat tracer's start() function is called again which will recreate another kernel thread, and make it unable to remove the old one.

ring_buffer: tracing: Inherit the tracing setting to next ring buffer

2018-08-09T10:19:28Z

commit 73c8d8945505acdcbae137c2e00a1232e0be709f upstream. Maintain the tracing on/off setting of the ring_buffer when switching to the trace buffer snapshot. Taking a snapshot is done by swapping the backup ring buffer (max_tr_buffer). But since the tracing on/off setting is defined by the ring buffer, when swapping it, the tracing on/off setting can also be changed. This causes a strange result like below: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat tracing_on 1 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 0 > tracing_on /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat tracing_on 0 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 1 > snapshot /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat tracing_on 1 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 1 > snapshot /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat tracing_on 0 We don't touch tracing_on, but snapshot changes tracing_on setting each time. This is an anomaly, because user doesn't know that each "ring_buffer" stores its own tracing-enable state and the snapshot is done by swapping ring buffers.
