2022-08-05T16:41:12+00:00

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Runtime verification infrastructure

   This is the biggest change here. It introduces the runtime
   verification that is necessary for running Linux on safety critical
   systems.

   It allows for deterministic automata models to be inserted into the
   kernel that will attach to tracepoints, where the information on
   these tracepoints will move the model from state to state.

   If a state is encountered that does not belong to the model, it will
   then activate a given reactor, that could just inform the user or
   even panic the kernel (for which safety critical systems will detect
   and can recover from).

 - Two monitor models are also added: Wakeup In Preemptive (WIP - not to
   be confused with "work in progress"), and Wakeup While Not Running
   (WWNR).

 - Added __vstring() helper to the TRACE_EVENT() macro to replace
   several vsnprintf() usages that were all doing it wrong.

 - eprobes now can have their event autogenerated when the event name is
   left off.

 - The rest is various cleanups and fixes.

tracepoints: It is CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS not CONFIG_TRACEPOINT

2022-08-02T19:15:56+00:00

When reading this note, CONFIG_TRACEPOINT searches my configuration
file, and the result is CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS, the search results are
consistent with the following macro definitions. I think it should be
repaired.

context_tracking: Take IRQ eqs entrypoints over RCU

2022-07-05T20:32:59+00:00

The RCU dynticks counter is going to be merged into the context tracking
subsystem. Prepare with moving the IRQ extended quiescent states
entrypoints to context tracking. For now those are dumb redirection to
existing RCU calls.

tracepoint: Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() for BPF tracing

2021-06-29T15:51:25+00:00

All internal use cases for tracepoint_probe_register() is set to not ever
be called with the same function and data. If it is, it is considered a
bug, as that means the accounting of handling tracepoints is corrupted.
If the function and data for a tracepoint is already registered when
tracepoint_probe_register() is called, it will call WARN_ON_ONCE() and
return with EEXISTS.

The BPF system call can end up calling tracepoint_probe_register() with
the same data, which now means that this can trigger the warning because
of a user space process. As WARN_ON_ONCE() should not be called because
user space called a system call with bad data, there needs to be a way to
register a tracepoint without triggering a warning.

Enter tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist(), which can be called, but will
not cause a WARN_ON() if the probe already exists. It will still error out
with EEXIST, which will then be sent to the user space that performed the
BPF system call.

This keeps the previous testing for issues with other users of the
tracepoint code, while letting BPF call it with duplicated data and not
warn about it.

tracepoints: Code clean up

2021-02-09T17:27:29+00:00

Restructure the code a bit to make it simpler, fix some formatting problems
and add READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE to make sure there's no compiler load/store
tearing to the variables that can be accessed across CPUs.

Started with Mathieu Desnoyers's patch:

And will keep his signature, but I will take the responsibility of this

tracepoints: Do not punish non static call users

2021-02-09T17:16:27+00:00

With static calls, a tracepoint can call the callback directly if there is
only one callback registered to that tracepoint. When there is more than
one, the static call will call the tracepoint's "iterator" function, which
needs to reload the tracepoint's "funcs" array again, as it could have
changed since the first time it was loaded.

But an arch without static calls is punished by having to load the
tracepoint's "funcs" array twice. Once in the DO_TRACE macro, and once
again in the iterator macro.

For archs without static calls, there's no reason to load the array macro
in the first place, since the iterator function will do it anyway.

Change the __DO_TRACE_CALL() macro to do the load and call of the
tracepoints funcs array only for architectures with static calls, and just
call the iterator function directly for architectures without static calls.

tracepoints: Remove unnecessary "data_args" macro parameter

2021-02-09T17:16:27+00:00

While working on a clean up that would restructure the difference between
architectures that have static calls vs those that do not, I was stumbling
over the "data_args" parameter that includes "__data" in the arguments. The
issue was that one version didn't even need it, while the other one did.
Instead of injecting a "__data = NULL;" into the macro for the unneeded
version, just remove it completely.

The original idea behind data_args is that there may be a case of a
tracepoint with no arguments. But this is considered bad practice, and all
tracepoints should pass something to that location (that's what tracepoints
were created for).

tracepoint: Fix race between tracing and removing tracepoint

2021-02-02T14:32:02+00:00

When executing a tracepoint, the tracepoint's func is dereferenced twice -
in __DO_TRACE() (where the returned pointer is checked) and later on in
__traceiter_##_name where the returned pointer is dereferenced without
checking which leads to races against tracepoint_removal_sync() and
crashes.

This adds a check before referencing the pointer in tracepoint_ptr_deref.
