Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Remove code I accidentally applied when doing a minor fix up to a patch, and then using "git commit -a --amend", which pulled in some other changes I was playing with. - Remove an used variable in trace_events_inject code - Fix function graph tracer when it traces a ftrace direct function. It will now ignore tracing a function that has a ftrace direct tramploine attached. This is needed for eBPF to use the ftrace direct code. * tag 'trace-v5.5-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace: Fix function_graph tracer interaction with BPF trampoline tracing: remove set but not used variable 'buffer' module: Remove accidental change of module_enable_x()

ftrace: Fix function_graph tracer interaction with BPF trampoline

2019-12-10T18:53:59Z

Depending on type of BPF programs served by BPF trampoline it can call original function. In such case the trampoline will skip one stack frame while returning. That will confuse function_graph tracer and will cause crashes with bad RIP. Teach graph tracer to skip functions that have BPF trampoline attached.

Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Two fixes and one patch that was missed: Fixes: - Missing __print_hex_dump undef for processing new function in trace events - Stop WARN_ON messages when lockdown disables tracing on boot up Enhancement: - Debug option to inject trace events from userspace (for rasdaemon)" The enhancement has its own config option and is non invasive.

tracing: Do not create directories if lockdown is in affect

2019-12-04T13:27:15Z

If lockdown is disabling tracing on boot up, it prevents the tracing files from even bering created. But when that happens, there's several places that will give a warning that the files were not created as that is usually a sign of a bug. Add in strategic locations where a check is made to see if tracing is disabled by lockdown, and if it is, do not go further, and fail silently (but print that tracing is disabled by lockdown, without doing a WARN_ON()).

tracing: Introduce trace event injection

2019-12-02T16:07:00Z

We have been trying to use rasdaemon to monitor hardware errors like correctable memory errors. rasdaemon uses trace events to monitor various hardware errors. In order to test it, we have to inject some hardware errors, unfortunately not all of them provide error injections. MCE does provide a way to inject MCE errors, but errors like PCI error and devlink error don't, it is not easy to add error injection to each of them. Instead, it is relatively easier to just allow users to inject trace events in a generic way so that all trace events can be injected. This patch introduces trace event injection, where a new 'inject' is added to each tracepoint directory. Users could write into this file with key=value pairs to specify the value of each fields of the trace event, all unspecified fields are set to zero values by default. For example, for the net/net_dev_queue tracepoint, we can inject: INJECT=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/inject echo "" > $INJECT echo "name='test'" > $INJECT echo "name='test' len=1024" > $INJECT cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace ... <...>-614 [000] .... 36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 <...>-614 [001] .... 136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 <...>-614 [001] .N.. 208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024 Triggers could be triggered as usual too: echo "stacktrace if len == 1025" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/trigger echo "len=1025" > $INJECT cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace ... bash-614 [000] .... 36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 bash-614 [001] .... 136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 bash-614 [001] .N.. 208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024 bash-614 [001] .N.1 284.236349: => event_inject_write => vfs_write => ksys_write => do_syscall_64 => entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe The only thing that can't be injected is string pointers as they require constant string pointers, this can't be done at run time.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "New tracing features: - New PERMANENT flag to ftrace_ops when attaching a callback to a function. As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable all attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on live kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a ftrace_ops is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it will prevent ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if ftrace_enabled is already disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops with PREMANENT flag set from being registered. - New register_ftrace_direct(). As eBPF would like to register its own trampolines to be called by the ftrace nop locations directly, without going through the ftrace trampoline, this function has been added. This allows for eBPF trampolines to live along side of ftrace, perf, kprobe and live patching. It also utilizes the ftrace enabled_functions file that keeps track of functions that have been modified in the kernel, to allow for security auditing. - Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances. Subsystems in the kernel can now create and destroy their own tracing instances which allows them to have their own tracing buffer, and be able to record events without worrying about other users from writing over their data. - New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their seq_buf usage. - Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency tracers. - Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch and friends. - More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16) - Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the system call trace events. This along with small clean ups and fixes" * tag 'trace-v5.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (51 commits) tracing: Enable syscall optimization for MIPS tracing: Use xarray for syscall trace events tracing: Sample module to demonstrate kernel access to Ftrace instances. tracing: Adding new functions for kernel access to Ftrace instances tracing: Fix Kconfig indentation ring-buffer: Fix typos in function ring_buffer_producer ftrace: Use BIT() macro ftrace: Return ENOTSUPP when DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS is not configured ftrace: Rename ftrace_graph_stub to ftrace_stub_graph ftrace: Add a helper function to modify_ftrace_direct() to allow arch optimization ftrace: Add helper find_direct_entry() to consolidate code ftrace: Add another check for match in register_ftrace_direct() ftrace: Fix accounting bug with direct->count in register_ftrace_direct() ftrace/selftests: Fix spelling mistake "wakeing" -> "waking" tracing: Increase SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX for synthetic_events ftrace/samples: Add a sample module that implements modify_ftrace_direct() ftrace: Add modify_ftrace_direct() tracing: Add missing "inline" in stub function of latency_fsnotify() tracing: Remove stray tab in TRACE_EVAL_MAP_FILE's help text tracing: Use seq_buf_hex_dump() to dump buffers ...

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the "big" set of driver core patches for 5.5-rc1 There's a few minor cleanups and fixes in here, but the majority of the patches in here fall into two buckets: - debugfs api cleanups and fixes - driver core device link support for boot dependancy issues The debugfs api cleanups are working to slowly refactor the debugfs apis so that it is even harder to use incorrectly. That work has been happening for the past few kernel releases and will continue over time, it's a long-term project/goal The driver core device link support missed 5.4 by just a bit, so it's been sitting and baking for many months now. It's from Saravana Kannan to help resolve the problems that DT-based systems have at boot time with dependancy graphs and kernel modules. Turns out that no one has actually tried to build a generic arm64 kernel with loads of modules and have it "just work" for a variety of platforms (like a distro kernel). The big problem turned out to be a lack of dependency information between different areas of DT entries, and the work here resolves that problem and now allows devices to boot properly, and quicker than a monolith kernel. All of these patches have been in linux-next for a long time with no reported issues" * tag 'driver-core-5.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (68 commits) tracing: Remove unnecessary DEBUG_FS dependency of: property: Add device link support for interrupt-parent, dmas and -gpio(s) debugfs: Fix !DEBUG_FS debugfs_create_automount of: property: Add device link support for "iommu-map" of: property: Fix the semantics of of_is_ancestor_of() i2c: of: Populate fwnode in of_i2c_get_board_info() drivers: base: Fix Kconfig indentation firmware_loader: Fix labels with comma for builtin firmware driver core: Allow device link operations inside sync_state() driver core: platform: Declare ret variable only once cpu-topology: declare parse_acpi_topology in crypto: hisilicon: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions driver core: platform: use the correct callback type for bus_find_device firmware_class: make firmware caching configurable driver core: Clarify documentation for fwnode_operations.add_links() mailbox: tegra: Fix superfluous IRQ error message net: caif: Fix debugfs on 64-bit platforms mac80211: Use debugfs_create_xul() helper media: c8sectpfe: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions of: property: Add device link support for iommus, mboxes and io-channels ...
