Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:
- kprobes: use struct_size() for variable size kretprobe_instance data
structure.
- eprobe: Simplify trace_eprobe list iteration.
- probe events: Data structure field access support on BTF argument.
- Update BTF argument support on the functions in the kernel
loadable modules (only loaded modules are supported).
- Move generic BTF access function (search function prototype and
get function parameters) to a separated file.
- Add a function to search a member of data structure in BTF.
- Support accessing BTF data structure member from probe args by
C-like arrow('->') and dot('.') operators. e.g.
't sched_switch next=next->pid vruntime=next->se.vruntime'
- Support accessing BTF data structure member from $retval. e.g.
'f getname_flags%return +0($retval->name):string'
- Add string type checking if BTF type info is available. This will
reject if user specify ":string" type for non "char pointer"
type.
- Automatically assume the fprobe event as a function return event
if $retval is used.
- selftests/ftrace: Add BTF data field access test cases.
- Documentation: Update fprobe event example with BTF data field.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"User visible changes:
- Added a way to easier filter with cpumasks:
# echo 'cpumask & CPUS{17-42}' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ipi_send_cpumask/filter
- Show actual size of ring buffer after modifying the ring buffer
size via buffer_size_kb.
Currently it just returns what was written, but the actual size
rounds up to the sub buffer size. Show that real size instead.
Major changes:
- Added "eventfs". This is the code that handles the inodes and
dentries of tracefs/events directory. As there are thousands of
events, and each event has several inodes and dentries that
currently exist even when tracing is never used, they take up
precious memory. Instead, eventfs will allocate the inodes and
dentries in a JIT way (similar to what procfs does). There is now
metadata that handles the events and subdirectories, and will
create the inodes and dentries when they are used.
Note, I also have patches that remove the subdirectory meta data,
but will wait till the next merge window before applying them. It's
a little more complex, and I want to make sure the dynamic code
works properly before adding more complexity, making it easier to
revert if need be.
Minor changes:
- Optimization to user event list traversal
- Remove intermediate permission of tracefs files (note the
intermediate permission removes all access to the files so it is
not a security concern, but just a clean up)
- Add the complex fix to FORTIFY_SOURCE to the kernel stack event
logic
- Other minor cleanups"

The PTT can only filter the traced TLP headers by the Root Ports or the
Requester ID of the Endpoint, which are located on the same PCIe core of
the PTT device. The filter value used is derived from the BDF number of
the supported Root Port or the Endpoint. It's not friendly enough for the
users since it requires the user to be familiar enough with the platform
and calculate the filter value manually.
This patch export the available filters through sysfs. Each available
filters is presented as an individual file with the name of the BDF
number of the related PCIe device. The files are created under
$(PTT PMU dir)/available_root_port_filters and
$(PTT PMU dir)/available_requester_filters respectively. The filter
value can be known by reading the related file.
Then the users can easily know the available filters for trace and get
the filter values without calculating.

The PCIe devices supported by the PTT trace can be removed/rescanned by
hotplug or through sysfs. Add support for dynamically updating the
available filter list by registering a PCI bus notifier block. Then user
can always get latest information about available tracing filters and
driver can block the invalid filters of which related devices no longer
exist in the system.

Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:
- fprobe: Pass return address to the fprobe entry/exit callbacks so
that the callbacks don't need to analyze pt_regs/stack to find the
function return address.
- kprobe events: cleanup usage of TPARG_FL_FENTRY and TPARG_FL_RETURN
flags so that those are not set at once.
- fprobe events:
- Add a new fprobe events for tracing arbitrary function entry and
exit as a trace event.
- Add a new tracepoint events for tracing raw tracepoint as a
trace event. This allows user to trace non user-exposed
tracepoints.
- Move eprobe's event parser code into probe event common file.
- Introduce BTF (BPF type format) support to kernel probe (kprobe,
fprobe and tracepoint probe) events so that user can specify
traced function arguments by name. This also applies the type of
argument when fetching the argument.
- Introduce '$arg*' wildcard support if BTF is available. This
expands the '$arg*' meta argument to all function argument
automatically.
- Check the return value types by BTF. If the function returns
'void', '$retval' is rejected.
- Add some selftest script for fprobe events, tracepoint events
and BTF support.
- Update documentation about the fprobe events.
- Some fixes for above features, document and selftests.
- selftests for ftrace (in addition to the new fprobe events):
- Add a test case for multiple consecutive probes in a function
which checks if ftrace based kprobe, optimized kprobe and normal
kprobe can be defined in the same target function.
- Add a test case for optimized probe, which checks whether kprobe
can be optimized or not.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add new feature to have function graph tracer record the return
value. Adds a new option: funcgraph-retval ; when set, will show the
return value of a function in the function graph tracer.
- Also add the option: funcgraph-retval-hex where if it is not set, and
the return value is an error code, then it will return the decimal of
the error code, otherwise it still reports the hex value.
- Add the file /sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/per_cpu/cpu<cpu>/timerlat_fd
That when a application opens it, it becomes the task that the timer
lat tracer traces. The application can also read this file to find
out how it's being interrupted.
- Add the file /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions_addrs
that works just the same as available_filter_functions but also shows
the addresses of the functions like kallsyms, except that it gives
the address of where the fentry/mcount jump/nop is. This is used by
BPF to make it easier to attach BPF programs to ftrace hooks.
- Replace strlcpy with strscpy in the tracing boot code.

Going a step further, we propose a way to use any user-space
workload as the task waiting for the timerlat timer. This is done
via a per-CPU file named osnoise/cpu$id/timerlat_fd file.
The tracef_fd allows a task to open at a time. When a task reads
the file, the timerlat timer is armed for future osnoise/timerlat_period_us
time. When the timer fires, it prints the IRQ latency and
wakes up the user-space thread waiting in the timerlat_fd.
The thread then starts to run, executes the timerlat measurement, prints
the thread scheduling latency and returns to user-space.
When the thread rereads the timerlat_fd, the tracer will print the
user-ret(urn) latency, which is an additional metric.
This additional metric is also traced by the tracer and can be used, for
example of measuring the context switch overhead from kernel-to-user and
user-to-kernel, or the response time for an arbitrary execution in
user-space.
The tracer supports one thread per CPU, the thread must be pinned to
the CPU, and it cannot migrate while holding the timerlat_fd. The reason
is that the tracer is per CPU (nothing prohibits the tracer from
allowing migrations in the future). The tracer monitors the migration
of the thread and disables the tracer if detected.
The timerlat_fd is only available for opening/reading when timerlat
tracer is enabled, and NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD is set.
The simplest way to activate this feature from user-space is:
-------------------------------- %< -----------------------------------
int main(void)
{
char buffer[1024];
int timerlat_fd;
int retval;
long cpu = 0; /* place in CPU 0 */
cpu_set_t set;
CPU_ZERO(&set);
CPU_SET(cpu, &set);
if (sched_setaffinity(gettid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1)
return 1;
snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer),
"/sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/per_cpu/cpu%ld/timerlat_fd",
cpu);
timerlat_fd = open(buffer, O_RDONLY);
if (timerlat_fd < 0) {
printf("error opening %s: %s\n", buffer, strerror(errno));
exit(1);
}
for (;;) {
retval = read(timerlat_fd, buffer, 1024);
if (retval < 0)
break;
}
close(timerlat_fd);
exit(0);
}
-------------------------------- >% -----------------------------------
When disabling timerlat, if there is a workload holding the timerlat_fd,
the SIGKILL will be sent to the thread.

Adding new available_filter_functions_addrs file that shows all available
functions (same as available_filter_functions) together with addresses,
like:
# cat available_filter_functions_addrs | head
ffffffff81000770 __traceiter_initcall_level
ffffffff810007c0 __traceiter_initcall_start
ffffffff81000810 __traceiter_initcall_finish
ffffffff81000860 trace_initcall_finish_cb
...
Note displayed address is the patch-site address and can differ from
/proc/kallsyms address.
It's useful to have address avilable for traceable symbols, so we don't
need to allways cross check kallsyms with available_filter_functions
(or the other way around) and have all the data in single file.
For backwards compatibility reasons we can't change the existing
available_filter_functions file output, but we need to add new file.
The problem is that we need to do 2 passes:
- through available_filter_functions and find out if the function is traceable
- through /proc/kallsyms to get the address for traceable function
Having available_filter_functions symbols together with addresses allow
us to skip the kallsyms step and we are ok with the address in
available_filter_functions_addr not being the function entry, because
kprobe_multi uses fprobe and that handles both entry and patch-site
address properly.
We have 2 interfaces how to create kprobe_multi link:
a) passing symbols to kernel
1) user gathers symbols and need to ensure that they are
trace-able -> pass through available_filter_functions file
2) kernel takes those symbols and translates them to addresses
through kallsyms api
3) addresses are passed to fprobe/ftrace through:
register_fprobe_ips
-> ftrace_set_filter_ips
b) passing addresses to kernel
1) user gathers symbols and needs to ensure that they are
trace-able -> pass through available_filter_functions file
2) user takes those symbols and translates them to addresses
through /proc/kallsyms
3) addresses are passed to the kernel and kernel calls:
register_fprobe_ips
-> ftrace_set_filter_ips
The new available_filter_functions_addrs file helps us with option b),
because we can make 'b 1' and 'b 2' in one step - while filtering traceable
functions, we get the address directly.

Document that auto-cleanup is enabled by default and remove the refernce
to /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events file to make this clear.

The histogram and synthetic events can use a pseudo event called
"stacktrace" that will create a stacktrace at the time of the event and
use it just like it was a normal field. We have other pseudo events such
as "common_cpu" and "common_timestamp". To stay consistent with that,
convert "stacktrace" to "common_stacktrace". As this was used in older
kernels, to keep backward compatibility, this will act just like
"common_cpu" did with "cpu". That is, "cpu" will be the same as
"common_cpu" unless the event has a "cpu" field. In which case, the
event's field is used. The same is true with "stacktrace".
Also update the documentation to reflect this change.

Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Make buffer_percent read/write.
The buffer_percent file is how users can state how long to block on
the tracing buffer depending on how much is in the buffer. When it
hits the "buffer_percent" it will wake the task waiting on the
buffer. For some reason it was set to read-only.
This was not noticed because testing was done as root without
SELinux, but with SELinux it will prevent even root to write to it
without having CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE.
- The "touched_functions" was added this merge window, but one of the
reasons for adding it was not implemented.
That was to show what functions were not only touched, but had either
a direct trampoline attached to it, or a kprobe or live kernel
patching that can "hijack" the function to run a different function.
The point is to know if there's functions in the kernel that may not
be behaving as the kernel code shows. This can be used for debugging.
TODO: Add this information to kernel oops too.
* tag 'trace-v6.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:

If a function had ever had IPMODIFY or DIRECT attached to it, where this
is how live kernel patching and BPF overrides work, mark them and display
an "M" in the enabled_functions and touched_functions files. This can be
used for debugging. If a function had been modified and later there's a bug
in the code related to that function, this can be used to know if the cause
is possibly from a live kernel patch or a BPF program that changed the
behavior of the code.
Also update the documentation on the enabled_functions and
touched_functions output, as it was missing direct callers and CALL_OPS.
And include this new modify attribute.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- User events are finally ready!
After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally
locked down on a stable interface for user events that can also work
with user space only tracing.
This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user space library, but
that part is user space only and not part of this patch set), where
the variable is that the application uses to know if something is
listening to the trace.
There's also an interface to tell the kernel about these events,
which will show up in the /sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/
directory, where it can be enabled.
When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell the
application to start writing to the kernel.
See https://lwn.net/Articles/927595/
- Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of
direct trampolines.
Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but instead of jumping to
the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF) can register their
own trampoline for performance reasons.
- Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient
than kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that
kprobes on ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes
will be exposed as dynamic events.
- More updates to references to the obsolete path of
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path.
- Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer
line by line instead of all at once.
There are users in production kernels that have a large data dump
that originally used printk() directly, but the data dump was larger
than what printk() allowed as a single print.
Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that.
- Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions
that was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used
for debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a
crash by a bpf program or live patching.
- Add a "fields" option that is similar to "raw" but outputs the fields
of the events. It's easier to read by humans.
- Some minor fixes and clean ups.

The hex, raw and bin formats come from the old PREEMPT_RT patch set
latency tracer. That actually gave real alternatives to reading the ascii
buffer. But they have started to bit rot and they do not give a good
representation of the tracing data.

"Here is the large set of driver changes for char/misc drivers and
other smaller driver subsystems that flow through this git tree.
Included in here are:
- New IIO drivers and features and improvments in that subsystem
- New hwtracing drivers and additions to that subsystem
- lots of interconnect changes and new drivers as that subsystem
seems under very active development recently. This required also
merging in the icc subsystem changes through this tree.

There are scenes that we want to show the character value of traced
arguments other than a decimal or hexadecimal or string value for debug
convinience. I add a new type named 'char' to do it and a new test case
file named 'kprobe_args_char.tc' to do selftest for char type.
For example:
The to be traced function is 'void demo_func(char type, char *name);', we
can add a kprobe event as follows to show argument values as we want:
echo 'p:myprobe demo_func $arg1:char +0($arg2):char[5]' > kprobe_events
we will get the following trace log:
... myprobe: (demo_func+0x0/0x29) arg1='A' arg2={'b','p','f','1',''}

There's been several times where an event records a function address in
its field and I needed to filter on that address for a specific function
name. It required looking up the function in kallsyms, finding its size,
and doing a compare of "field >= function_start && field < function_end".
But this would change from boot to boot and is unreliable in scripts.
Also, it is useful to have this at boot up, where the addresses will not
be known. For example, on the boot command line:
trace_trigger="initcall_finish.traceoff if func.function == acpi_init"
To implement this, add a ".function" prefix, that will check that the
field is of size long, and the only operations allowed (so far) are "=="
and "!=".

The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.
But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:
Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
Many parts of Documentation still reference this older debugfs path, so
let's update them to avoid confusion.

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' >> 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.

Default value of maxactive is set as num_possible_cpus() for nonpreemptable
systems. For a 2-core system, only 2 kretprobe instances would be allocated
in default, then these 2 instances for execve kretprobe are very likely to
be used up with a pipelined command.
Here's the testcase: a shell script was added to crontab, and the content
of the script is:
#!/bin/sh
do_something_magic `tr -dc a-z < /dev/urandom | head -c 10`
cron will trigger a series of program executions (4 times every hour). Then
events loss would be noticed normally after 3-4 hours of testings.
The issue is caused by a burst of series of execve requests. The best number
of kretprobe instances could be different case by case, and should be user's
duty to determine, but num_possible_cpus() as the default value is inadequate
especially for systems with small number of cpus.
This patch enables the logic for preemption as default, thus increases the
minimum of maxactive to 10 for nonpreemptable systems.

- 'preempt' option, to test noise while preemption is disabled
- 'irq' option, to test noise when interrupts are disabled
- Add .percent and .graph suffix to histograms to give different
outputs
- Add nohitcount to disable showing hitcount in histogram output
- Add new __cpumask() to trace event fields to annotate that a unsigned
long array is a cpumask to user space and should be treated as one.
- Add trace_trigger kernel command line parameter to enable trace event
triggers at boot up. Useful to trace stack traces, disable tracing
and take snapshots.
- Fix x86/kmmio mmio tracer to work with the updates to lockdep
- Unify the panic and die notifiers
- Add back ftrace_expect reference that is used to extract more
information in the ftrace_bug() code.
- Have trigger filter parsing errors show up in the tracing error log.
- Updated MAINTAINERS file to add kernel tracing mailing list and
patchwork info
- Use IDA to keep track of event type numbers.
- And minor fixes and clean ups
