Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Add missing LOCKDOWN checks for eventfs callers When LOCKDOWN is active for tracing, it causes inconsistent state when some functions succeed and others fail. - Use dput() to free the top level eventfs descriptor There was a race between accesses and freeing it. - Fix a long standing bug that eventfs exposed due to changing timings by dynamically creating files. That is, If a event file is opened for an instance, there's nothing preventing the instance from being removed which will make accessing the files cause use-after-free bugs. - Fix a ring buffer race that happens when iterating over the ring buffer while writers are active. Check to make sure not to read the event meta data if it's beyond the end of the ring buffer sub buffer. - Fix the print trigger that disappeared because the test to create it was looking for the event dir field being filled, but now it has the "ef" field filled for the eventfs structure. - Remove the unused "dir" field from the event structure. - Fix the order of the trace_dynamic_info as it had it backwards for the offset and len fields for which one was for which endianess. - Fix NULL pointer dereference with eventfs_remove_rec() If an allocation fails in one of the eventfs_add_*() functions, the caller of it in event_subsystem_dir() or event_create_dir() assigns the result to the structure. But it's assigning the ERR_PTR and not NULL. This was passed to eventfs_remove_rec() which expects either a good pointer or a NULL, not ERR_PTR. The fix is to not assign the ERR_PTR to the structure, but to keep it NULL on error. - Fix list_for_each_rcu() to use list_for_each_srcu() in dcache_dir_open_wrapper(). One iteration of the code used RCU but because it had to call sleepable code, it had to be changed to use SRCU, but one of the iterations was missed. - Fix synthetic event print function to use "as_u64" instead of passing in a pointer to the union. To fix big/little endian issues, the u64 that represented several types was turned into a union to define the types properly. * tag 'trace-v6.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: eventfs: Fix the NULL pointer dereference bug in eventfs_remove_rec() tracefs/eventfs: Use list_for_each_srcu() in dcache_dir_open_wrapper() tracing/synthetic: Print out u64 values properly tracing/synthetic: Fix order of struct trace_dynamic_info selftests/ftrace: Fix dependencies for some of the synthetic event tests tracing: Remove unused trace_event_file dir field tracing: Use the new eventfs descriptor for print trigger ring-buffer: Do not attempt to read past "commit" tracefs/eventfs: Free top level files on removal ring-buffer: Avoid softlockup in ring_buffer_resize() tracing: Have event inject files inc the trace array ref count tracing: Have option files inc the trace array ref count tracing: Have current_trace inc the trace array ref count tracing: Have tracing_max_latency inc the trace array ref count tracing: Increase trace array ref count on enable and filter files tracefs/eventfs: Use dput to free the toplevel events directory tracefs/eventfs: Add missing lockdown checks tracefs: Add missing lockdown check to tracefs_create_dir()
