ftrace: Handle tracing when switching between context

2020-11-10T09:22:19Z

commit 726b3d3f141fba6f841d715fc4d8a4a84f02c02a upstream. When an interrupt or NMI comes in and switches the context, there's a delay from when the preempt_count() shows the update. As the preempt_count() is used to detect recursion having each context have its own bit get set when tracing starts, and if that bit is already set, it is considered a recursion and the function exits. But if this happens in that section where context has changed but preempt_count() has not been updated, this will be incorrectly flagged as a recursion. To handle this case, create another bit call TRANSITION and test it if the current context bit is already set. Flag the call as a recursion if the TRANSITION bit is already set, and if not, set it and continue. The TRANSITION bit will be cleared normally on the return of the function that set it, or if the current context bit is clear, set it and clear the TRANSITION bit to allow for another transition between the current context and an even higher one.

ftrace: Fix recursion check for NMI test

2020-11-10T09:22:19Z

commit ee11b93f95eabdf8198edd4668bf9102e7248270 upstream. The code that checks recursion will work to only do the recursion check once if there's nested checks. The top one will do the check, the other nested checks will see recursion was already checked and return zero for its "bit". On the return side, nothing will be done if the "bit" is zero. The problem is that zero is returned for the "good" bit when in NMI context. This will set the bit for NMIs making it look like *all* NMI tracing is recursing, and prevent tracing of anything in NMI context! The simple fix is to return "bit + 1" and subtract that bit on the end to get the real bit.

ring-buffer: Return 0 on success from ring_buffer_resize()

tracing: Use address-of operator on section symbols

2020-10-01T09:11:53Z

[ Upstream commit bf2cbe044da275021b2de5917240411a19e5c50d ] Clang warns: ../kernel/trace/trace.c:9335:33: warning: array comparison always evaluates to true [-Wtautological-compare] if (__stop___trace_bprintk_fmt != __start___trace_bprintk_fmt) ^ 1 warning generated. These are not true arrays, they are linker defined symbols, which are just addresses. Using the address of operator silences the warning and does not change the runtime result of the check (tested with some print statements compiled in with clang + ld.lld and gcc + ld.bfd in QEMU).

tracing: Set kernel_stack's caller size properly

2020-10-01T09:11:52Z

[ Upstream commit cbc3b92ce037f5e7536f6db157d185cd8b8f615c ] I noticed when trying to use the trace-cmd python interface that reading the raw buffer wasn't working for kernel_stack events. This is because it uses a stubbed version of __dynamic_array that doesn't do the __data_loc trick and encode the length of the array into the field. Instead it just shows up as a size of 0. So change this to __array and set the len to FTRACE_STACK_ENTRIES since this is what we actually do in practice and matches how user_stack_trace works.

ftrace: Setup correct FTRACE_FL_REGS flags for module

2020-10-01T09:11:49Z

[ Upstream commit 8a224ffb3f52b0027f6b7279854c71a31c48fc97 ] When module loaded and enabled, we will use __ftrace_replace_code for module if any ftrace_ops referenced it found. But we will get wrong ftrace_addr for module rec in ftrace_get_addr_new, because rec->flags has not been setup correctly. It can cause the callback function of a ftrace_ops has FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS to be called with pt_regs set to NULL. So setup correct FTRACE_FL_REGS flags for rec when we call referenced_filters to find ftrace_ops references it.

tracing: Fix event trigger to accept redundant spaces

2020-06-30T00:08:04Z

commit 6784beada631800f2c5afd567e5628c843362cee upstream. Fix the event trigger to accept redundant spaces in the trigger input. For example, these return -EINVAL echo " traceon" > events/ftrace/print/trigger echo "traceon if common_pid == 0" > events/ftrace/print/trigger echo "disable_event:kmem:kmalloc " > events/ftrace/print/trigger But these are hard to find what is wrong. To fix this issue, use skip_spaces() to remove spaces in front of actual tokens, and set NULL if there is no token.

blktrace: break out of blktrace setup on concurrent calls

2020-06-30T00:08:02Z

[ Upstream commit 1b0b283648163dae2a214ca28ed5a99f62a77319 ] We use one blktrace per request_queue, that means one per the entire disk. So we cannot run one blktrace on say /dev/vda and then /dev/vda1, or just two calls on /dev/vda. We check for concurrent setup only at the very end of the blktrace setup though. If we try to run two concurrent blktraces on the same block device the second one will fail, and the first one seems to go on. However when one tries to kill the first one one will see things like this: The kernel will show these: ``` debugfs: File 'dropped' in directory 'nvme1n1' already present! debugfs: File 'msg' in directory 'nvme1n1' already present! debugfs: File 'trace0' in directory 'nvme1n1' already present! `` And userspace just sees this error message for the second call: ``` blktrace /dev/nvme1n1 BLKTRACESETUP(2) /dev/nvme1n1 failed: 5/Input/output error ``` The first userspace process #1 will also claim that the files were taken underneath their nose as well. The files are taken away form the first process given that when the second blktrace fails, it will follow up with a BLKTRACESTOP and BLKTRACETEARDOWN. This means that even if go-happy process #1 is waiting for blktrace data, we *have* been asked to take teardown the blktrace. This can easily be reproduced with break-blktrace [0] run_0005.sh test. Just break out early if we know we're already going to fail, this will prevent trying to create the files all over again, which we know still exist.

Stop the ad-hoc games with -Wno-maybe-initialized

2020-05-20T06:11:49Z

commit 78a5255ffb6a1af189a83e493d916ba1c54d8c75 upstream. We have some rather random rules about when we accept the "maybe-initialized" warnings, and when we don't. For example, we consider it unreliable for gcc versions < 4.9, but also if -O3 is enabled, or if optimizing for size. And then various kernel config options disabled it, because they know that they trigger that warning by confusing gcc sufficiently (ie PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES). And now gcc-10 seems to be introducing a lot of those warnings too, so it falls under the same heading as 4.9 did. At the same time, we have a very straightforward way to _enable_ that warning when wanted: use "W=2" to enable more warnings. So stop playing these ad-hoc games, and just disable that warning by default, with the known and straight-forward "if you want to work on the extra compiler warnings, use W=123". Would it be great to have code that is always so obvious that it never confuses the compiler whether a variable is used initialized or not? Yes, it would. In a perfect world, the compilers would be smarter, and our source code would be simpler. That's currently not the world we live in, though.
