commit 9971c3f944489ff7aacb9d25e0cde841a5f6018a upstream.

The test to check if the field is a stack is to be done if it is not a
string. But the code had:

    } if (event-&gt;fields[i]-&gt;is_stack) {

and not

   } else if (event-&gt;fields[i]-&gt;is_stack) {

which would cause it to always be tested. Worse yet, this also included an
"else" statement that was only to be called if the field was not a string
and a stack, but this code allows it to be called if it was a string (and
not a stack).

Also fixed some whitespace issues.

<title>tracing: Fix warning in trace_buffered_event_disable()</title>

[ Upstream commit dea499781a1150d285c62b26659f62fb00824fce ]

Warning happened in trace_buffered_event_disable() at
  WARN_ON_ONCE(!trace_buffered_event_ref)

  Call Trace:
   ? __warn+0xa5/0x1b0
   ? trace_buffered_event_disable+0x189/0x1b0

   ftrace_filter_write+0xe6/0x140
   vfs_write+0x1c9/0x6f0
   [...]

The cause of the warning is in __ftrace_event_enable_disable(),
trace_buffered_event_enable() was called once while
trace_buffered_event_disable() was called twice.
Reproduction script show as below, for analysis, see the comments:
 ```
 #!/bin/bash

 cd /sys/kernel/tracing/

 # 1. Register a 'disable_event' command, then:
 #    1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was set;
 #    2) trace_buffered_event_enable() was called first time;
 echo 'cmdline_proc_show:disable_event:initcall:initcall_finish' &gt; \
     set_ftrace_filter

 # 2. Enable the event registered, then:
 #    1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was cleared;
 #    2) trace_buffered_event_disable() was called first time;
 echo 1 &gt; events/initcall/initcall_finish/enable

 # 3. Try to call into cmdline_proc_show(), then SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was
 #    set again!!!
 cat /proc/cmdline

 # 4. Unregister the 'disable_event' command, then:
 #    1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was cleared again;
 #    2) trace_buffered_event_disable() was called second time!!!
 echo '!cmdline_proc_show:disable_event:initcall:initcall_finish' &gt; \
     set_ftrace_filter
 ```

To fix it, IIUC, we can change to call trace_buffered_event_enable() at
fist time soft-mode enabled, and call trace_buffered_event_disable() at
last time soft-mode disabled.

[ Upstream commit 2d093282b0d4357373497f65db6a05eb0c28b7c8 ]

When pages are removed in rb_remove_pages(), 'cpu_buffer-&gt;read' is set
to 0 in order to make sure any read iterators reset themselves. However,
this will mess 'entries' stating, see following steps:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
  # 1. Enlarge ring buffer prepare for later reducing:
  # echo 20 &gt; per_cpu/cpu0/buffer_size_kb
  # 2. Write a log into ring buffer of cpu0:
  # taskset -c 0 echo "hello1" &gt; trace_marker
  # 3. Read the log:
  # cat per_cpu/cpu0/trace_pipe
       &lt;...&gt;-332     [000] .....    62.406844: tracing_mark_write: hello1
  # 4. Stop reading and see the stats, now 0 entries, and 1 event readed:
  # cat per_cpu/cpu0/stats
   entries: 0
   [...]
   read events: 1
  # 5. Reduce the ring buffer
  # echo 7 &gt; per_cpu/cpu0/buffer_size_kb
  # 6. Now entries became unexpected 1 because actually no entries!!!
  # cat per_cpu/cpu0/stats
   entries: 1
   [...]
   read events: 0

To fix it, introduce 'page_removed' field to count total removed pages
since last reset, then use it to let read iterators reset themselves
instead of changing the 'read' pointer.

[ Upstream commit 797311bce5c2ac90b8d65e357603cfd410d36ebb ]

Fix to record 0-length data to data_loc in fetch_store_string*() if it fails
to get the string data.
Currently those expect that the data_loc is updated by store_trace_args() if
it returns the error code. However, that does not work correctly if the
argument is an array of strings. In that case, store_trace_args() only clears
the first entry of the array (which may have no error) and leaves other
entries. So it should be cleared by fetch_store_string*() itself.
Also, 'dyndata' and 'maxlen' in store_trace_args() should be updated
only if it is used (ret &gt; 0 and argument is a dynamic data.)

[ Upstream commit 4ed8f337dee32df71435689c19d22e4ee846e15a ]

This reverts commit 2e9906f84fc7c99388bb7123ade167250d50f1c0.

It was turned out that commit 2e9906f84fc7 ("tracing: Add "(fault)"
name injection to kernel probes") did not work correctly and probe
events still show just '(fault)' (instead of '"(fault)"'). Also,
current '(fault)' is more explicit that it faulted.

This also moves FAULT_STRING macro to trace.h so that synthetic
event can keep using it, and uses it in trace_probe.c too.

[ Upstream commit 00cf3d672a9dd409418647e9f98784c339c3ff63 ]

Allow a stacktrace from one event to be displayed by the end event of a
synthetic event. This is very useful when looking for the longest latency
of a sleep or something blocked on I/O.

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
 # echo 's:block_lat pid_t pid; u64 delta; unsigned long[] stack;' &gt; dynamic_events
 # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs,st=stacktrace  if prev_state == 1||prev_state == 2' &gt; events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
 # echo 'hist:keys=prev_pid:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts,s=$st:onmax($delta).trace(block_lat,prev_pid,$delta,$s)' &gt;&gt; events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

The above creates a "block_lat" synthetic event that take the stacktrace of
when a task schedules out in either the interruptible or uninterruptible
states, and on a new per process max $delta (the time it was scheduled
out), will print the process id and the stacktrace.

  # echo 1 &gt; events/synthetic/block_lat/enable
  # cat trace

If an array is specified with the ustring or symstr, the length of the
strings are accumlated on both of 'ret' and 'total', which means the
length is double counted.
Just set the length to the 'ret' value for avoiding double counting.

[ Upstream commit b26a124cbfa80f42bfc4e63e1d5643ca98159d66 ]

Add 'symstr' type for storing the kernel symbol as a string data
instead of the symbol address. This allows us to filter the
events by wildcard symbol name.

e.g.
  # echo 'e:wqfunc workqueue.workqueue_execute_start symname=$function:symstr' &gt;&gt; dynamic_events
  # cat events/eprobes/wqfunc/format
  name: wqfunc
  ID: 2110
  format:
  	field:unsigned short common_type;	offset:0;	size:2;	signed:0;
  	field:unsigned char common_flags;	offset:2;	size:1;	signed:0;
  	field:unsigned char common_preempt_count;	offset:3;	size:1;	signed:0;
  	field:int common_pid;	offset:4;	size:4;	signed:1;

  	field:__data_loc char[] symname;	offset:8;	size:4;	signed:1;

  print fmt: " symname=\"%s\"", __get_str(symname)

Note that there is already 'symbol' type which just change the
print format (so it still stores the symbol address in the tracing
ring buffer.) On the other hand, 'symstr' type stores the actual
"symbol+offset/size" data as a string.

Commit 6018b585e8c6 ("tracing/histograms: Add histograms to hist_vars if
they have referenced variables") added a check to fail histogram creation
if save_hist_vars() failed to add histogram to hist_vars list. But the
commit failed to set ret to failed return code before jumping to
unregister histogram, fix it.

commit d0a3022f30629a208e5944022caeca3568add9e7 upstream.

When users register an event the name of the event and it's argument are
checked to ensure they match if the event already exists. Normally all
arguments are in the form of "type name", except for when the type
starts with "struct ". In those cases, the size of the struct is passed
in addition to the name, IE: "struct my_struct a 20" for an argument
that is of type "struct my_struct" with a field name of "a" and has the
size of 20 bytes.

The current code does not honor the above case properly when comparing
a match. This causes the event register to fail even when the same
string was used for events that contain a struct argument within them.
The example above "struct my_struct a 20" generates a match string of
"struct my_struct a" omitting the size field.

Add the struct size of the existing field when generating a comparison
string for a struct field to ensure proper match checking.
