tracing: Fix event trigger to accept redundant spaces

2020-06-24T01:51:40+00:00

Fix the event trigger to accept redundant spaces in
the trigger input.

For example, these return -EINVAL

echo " traceon" > events/ftrace/print/trigger
echo "traceon  if common_pid == 0" > events/ftrace/print/trigger
echo "disable_event:kmem:kmalloc " > events/ftrace/print/trigger

But these are hard to find what is wrong.

To fix this issue, use skip_spaces() to remove spaces
in front of actual tokens, and set NULL if there is no
token.

tracing: Fix the race between registering 'snapshot' event trigger and triggering 'snapshot' operation

2020-04-15T02:02:10+00:00

Traced event can trigger 'snapshot' operation(i.e. calls snapshot_trigger()
or snapshot_count_trigger()) when register_snapshot_trigger() has completed
registration but doesn't allocate buffer for 'snapshot' event trigger.  In
the rare case, 'snapshot' operation always detects the lack of allocated
buffer so make register_snapshot_trigger() allocate buffer first.

trigger-snapshot.tc in kselftest reproduces the issue on slow vm:

trigger_next should increase position index

2020-01-30T14:46:27+00:00

if seq_file .next fuction does not change position index,
read after some lseek can generate unexpected output.

Without patch:
 # dd bs=30 skip=1 if=/sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
 dd: /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger: cannot skip to specified offset
 n traceoff snapshot stacktrace enable_event disable_event enable_hist disable_hist hist

 6+1 records in
 6+1 records out
 206 bytes copied, 0.00027916 s, 738 kB/s

Notice the printing of "# Available triggers:..." after the line.

With the patch:
 # dd bs=30 skip=1 if=/sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
 dd: /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger: cannot skip to specified offset

It only prints the end of the file, and does not restart.

tracing: trigger: Replace unneeded RCU-list traversals

2020-01-13T20:59:11+00:00

With CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST, I had many suspicious RCU warnings
when I ran ftracetest trigger testcases.

  # ./ftracetest test.d/trigger

I investigated those warnings and found that the RCU-list
traversals in event trigger and hist didn't need to use
RCU version because those were called only under event_mutex.

I also checked other RCU-list traversals related to event
trigger list, and found that most of them were called from
event_hist_trigger_func() or hist_unregister_trigger() or
register/unregister functions except for a few cases.

Replace these unneeded RCU-list traversals with normal list
traversal macro and lockdep_assert_held() to check the
event_mutex is held.

tracing/boot: Add per-event settings

2020-01-13T18:19:41+00:00

Add per-event settings for boottime tracing. User can set filter,
actions and enable on each event on boot. The event entries are
under ftrace.event.GROUP.EVENT node (note that the option key
includes event's group name and event name.) This supports below
configs.

 - ftrace.event.GROUP.EVENT.enable
   Enables GROUP:EVENT tracing.

 - ftrace.event.GROUP.EVENT.filter = FILTER
   Set FILTER rule to the GROUP:EVENT.

 - ftrace.event.GROUP.EVENT.actions = ACTION[, ACTION2...]
   Set ACTIONs to the GROUP:EVENT.

For example,

  ftrace.event.sched.sched_process_exec {
                filter = "pid < 128"
		enable
  }

this will enable tracing "sched:sched_process_exec" event
with "pid < 128" filter.

tracing: Add locked_down checks to the open calls of files created for tracefs

2019-10-13T00:48:06+00:00

Added various checks on open tracefs calls to see if tracefs is in lockdown
mode, and if so, to return -EPERM.

Note, the event format files (which are basically standard on all machines)
as well as the enabled_functions file (which shows what is currently being
traced) are not lockde down. Perhaps they should be, but it seems counter
intuitive to lockdown information to help you know if the system has been
modified.

tracing: Add trace_array parameter to create_event_filter()

2019-04-08T13:22:28+00:00

Pass in the trace_array that represents the instance the filter being
changed is in to create_event_filter(). This will allow for error messages
that happen when writing to the filter can be displayed in the proper
instance "error_log" file.

Note, for calls to create_filter() (that was also modified to support
create_event_filter()), that changes filters that do not exist in a instance
(for perf for example), NULL may be passed in, which means that there will
not be any message to log for that filter.

tracing: Fix memory leak in set_trigger_filter()

2018-12-11T18:50:19+00:00

When create_event_filter() fails in set_trigger_filter(), the filter may
still be allocated and needs to be freed. The caller expects the
data->filter to be updated with the new filter, even if the new filter
failed (we could add an error message by setting set_str parameter of
create_event_filter(), but that's another update).

But because the error would just exit, filter was left hanging and
nothing could free it.

Found by kmemleak detector.

tracing: Fix synchronizing to event changes with tracepoint_synchronize_unregister()

2018-08-10T19:12:01+00:00

Now that some trace events can be protected by srcu_read_lock(tracepoint_srcu),
we need to make sure all locations that depend on this are also protected.
There were many places that did a synchronize_sched() thinking that it was
enough to protect againts access to trace events. This use to be the case,
but now that we use SRCU for _rcuidle() trace events, they may not be
protected by synchronize_sched(), as they may be called in paths that RCU is
not watching for preempt disable.
