[ Upstream commit d6d1e6c17cab2dcb7b8530c599f00e7de906d380 ]

An abnormally big cnt may also be assigned to kprobe_multi.cnt when
attaching multiple kprobes. It will trigger the following warning in
kvmalloc_node():

	if (unlikely(size &gt; INT_MAX)) {
	    WARN_ON_ONCE(!(flags &amp; __GFP_NOWARN));
	    return NULL;
	}

Fix the warning by limiting the maximal number of kprobes in
bpf_kprobe_multi_link_attach(). If the number of kprobes is greater than
MAX_KPROBE_MULTI_CNT, the attachment will fail and return -E2BIG.

As the ring buffer recording requires cmpxchg() to work, if the
architecture does not support cmpxchg in NMI, then do not do any recording
within an NMI.

[ Upstream commit 1cc111b9cddc71ce161cd388f11f0e9048edffdb ]

KASAN report following issue. The root cause is when opening 'hist'
file of an instance and accessing 'trace_event_file' in hist_show(),
but 'trace_event_file' has been freed due to the instance being removed.
'hist_debug' file has the same problem. To fix it, call
tracing_{open,release}_file_tr() in file_operations callback to have
the ref count and avoid 'trace_event_file' being freed.

[ Upstream commit 60be76eeabb3d83858cc6577fc65c7d0f36ffd42 ]

If for some reason the trace_marker write does not have a nul byte for the
string, it will overflow the print:

  trace_seq_printf(s, ": %s", field-&gt;buf);

The field-&gt;buf could be missing the nul byte. To prevent overflow, add the
max size that the buf can be by using the event size and the field
location.

  int max = iter-&gt;ent_size - offsetof(struct print_entry, buf);

  trace_seq_printf(s, ": %*.s", max, field-&gt;buf);

If a large event was added to the ring buffer that is larger than what the
trace_seq can handle, it just drops the output:

 ~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace
 # tracer: nop
 #
 # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 2/2   #P:8
 #
 #                                _-----=&gt; irqs-off/BH-disabled

Instead, catch this case and add some context:

 ~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace
 # tracer: nop
 #
 # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 2/2   #P:8
 #
 #                                _-----=&gt; irqs-off/BH-disabled

 #                              |||| /     delay

            &lt;...&gt;-852     [001] .....   121.550581: tracing_mark_write: 78901234

This now emulates the same output as trace_pipe.

<title>tracing: Fix blocked reader of snapshot buffer</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ccd48707d51170a7518b77074f4053815ec58186</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 39a7dc23a1ed0fe81141792a09449d124c5953bd upstream.

If an application blocks on the snapshot or snapshot_raw files, expecting
to be woken up when a snapshot occurs, it will not happen. Or it may
happen with an unexpected result.

That result is that the application will be reading the main buffer
instead of the snapshot buffer. That is because when the snapshot occurs,
the main and snapshot buffers are swapped. But the reader has a descriptor
still pointing to the buffer that it originally connected to.

This is fine for the main buffer readers, as they may be blocked waiting
for a watermark to be hit, and when a snapshot occurs, the data that the
main readers want is now on the snapshot buffer.

But for waiters of the snapshot buffer, they are waiting for an event to
occur that will trigger the snapshot and they can then consume it quickly
to save the snapshot before the next snapshot occurs. But to do this, they
need to read the new snapshot buffer, not the old one that is now
receiving new data.

Also, it does not make sense to have a watermark "buffer_percent" on the
snapshot buffer, as the snapshot buffer is static and does not receive new
data except all at once.

<title>ftrace: Fix modification of direct_function hash while in use</title>

<content type='text'>
commit d05cb470663a2a1879277e544f69e660208f08f2 upstream.

Masami Hiramatsu reported a memory leak in register_ftrace_direct() where
if the number of new entries are added is large enough to cause two
allocations in the loop:

        for (i = 0; i &lt; size; i++) {
                hlist_for_each_entry(entry, &amp;hash-&gt;buckets[i], hlist) {
                        new = ftrace_add_rec_direct(entry-&gt;ip, addr, &amp;free_hash);
                        if (!new)
                                goto out_remove;
                        entry-&gt;direct = addr;
                }
        }

Where ftrace_add_rec_direct() has:

        if (ftrace_hash_empty(direct_functions) ||
            direct_functions-&gt;count &gt; 2 * (1 &lt;&lt; direct_functions-&gt;size_bits)) {
                struct ftrace_hash *new_hash;
                int size = ftrace_hash_empty(direct_functions) ? 0 :
                        direct_functions-&gt;count + 1;

                if (size &lt; 32)
                        size = 32;

                new_hash = dup_hash(direct_functions, size);
                if (!new_hash)
                        return NULL;

                *free_hash = direct_functions;
                direct_functions = new_hash;
        }

The "*free_hash = direct_functions;" can happen twice, losing the previous
allocation of direct_functions.

But this also exposed a more serious bug.

The modification of direct_functions above is not safe. As
direct_functions can be referenced at any time to find what direct caller
it should call, the time between:

                new_hash = dup_hash(direct_functions, size);
 and
                direct_functions = new_hash;

can have a race with another CPU (or even this one if it gets interrupted),
and the entries being moved to the new hash are not referenced.

That's because the "dup_hash()" is really misnamed and is really a
"move_hash()". It moves the entries from the old hash to the new one.

Now even if that was changed, this code is not proper as direct_functions
should not be updated until the end. That is the best way to handle
function reference changes, and is the way other parts of ftrace handles
this.

The following is done:

 1. Change add_hash_entry() to return the entry it created and inserted
    into the hash, and not just return success or not.

 2. Replace ftrace_add_rec_direct() with add_hash_entry(), and remove
    the former.

 3. Allocate a "new_hash" at the start that is made for holding both the
    new hash entries as well as the existing entries in direct_functions.

 4. Copy (not move) the direct_function entries over to the new_hash.

 5. Copy the entries of the added hash to the new_hash.

 6. If everything succeeds, then use rcu_pointer_assign() to update the
    direct_functions with the new_hash.

This simplifies the code and fixes both the memory leak as well as the
race condition mentioned above.

<title>ring-buffer: Fix wake ups when buffer_percent is set to 100</title>

commit 623b1f896fa8a669a277ee5a258307a16c7377a3 upstream.

The tracefs file "buffer_percent" is to allow user space to set a
water-mark on how much of the tracing ring buffer needs to be filled in
order to wake up a blocked reader.

 0 - is to wait until any data is in the buffer
 1 - is to wait for 1% of the sub buffers to be filled
 50 - would be half of the sub buffers are filled with data
 100 - is not to wake the waiter until the ring buffer is completely full

Unfortunately the test for being full was:

	dirty = ring_buffer_nr_dirty_pages(buffer, cpu);
	return (dirty * 100) &gt; (full * nr_pages);

Where "full" is the value for "buffer_percent".

There is two issues with the above when full == 100.

1. dirty * 100 &gt; 100 * nr_pages will never be true
   That is, the above is basically saying that if the user sets
   buffer_percent to 100, more pages need to be dirty than exist in the
   ring buffer!

2. The page that the writer is on is never considered dirty, as dirty
   pages are only those that are full. When the writer goes to a new
   sub-buffer, it clears the contents of that sub-buffer.

That is, even if the check was "&gt;=" it would still not be equal as the
most pages that can be considered "dirty" is nr_pages - 1.

To fix this, add one to dirty and use "&gt;=" in the compare.

<title>tracing / synthetic: Disable events after testing in synth_event_gen_test_init()</title>

commit 88b30c7f5d27e1594d70dc2bd7199b18f2b57fa9 upstream.

The synth_event_gen_test module can be built in, if someone wants to run
the tests at boot up and not have to load them.

The synth_event_gen_test_init() function creates and enables the synthetic
events and runs its tests.

The synth_event_gen_test_exit() disables the events it created and
destroys the events.

If the module is builtin, the events are never disabled. The issue is, the
events should be disable after the tests are run. This could be an issue
if the rest of the boot up tests are enabled, as they expect the events to
be in a known state before testing. That known state happens to be
disabled.

When CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENT_GEN_TEST=y and CONFIG_EVENT_TRACE_STARTUP_TEST=y
a warning will trigger:

 Running tests on trace events:
 Testing event create_synth_test:
 Enabled event during self test!

This is because the synth_event_gen_test_init() left the synthetic events
that it created enabled. By having it disable them after testing, the
other selftests will run fine.
