tracing: Erase irqsoff trace with empty write

2017-10-05T07:41:44+00:00

commit 8dd33bcb7050dd6f8c1432732f930932c9d3a33e upstream.

One convenient way to erase trace is "echo > trace". However, this
is currently broken if the current tracer is irqsoff tracer. This
is because irqsoff tracer use max_buffer as the default trace
buffer.

Set the max_buffer as the one to be cleared when it's the trace
buffer currently in use.

tracing: Fix trace_pipe behavior for instance traces

2017-10-05T07:41:44+00:00

commit 75df6e688ccd517e339a7c422ef7ad73045b18a2 upstream.

When reading data from trace_pipe, tracing_wait_pipe() performs a
check to see if tracing has been turned off after some data was read.
Currently, this check always looks at global trace state, but it
should be checking the trace instance where trace_pipe is located at.

Because of this bug, cat instances/i1/trace_pipe in the following
script will immediately exit instead of waiting for data:

cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo 0 > tracing_on
mkdir -p instances/i1
echo 1 > instances/i1/tracing_on
echo 1 > instances/i1/events/sched/sched_process_exec/enable
cat instances/i1/trace_pipe

ftrace: Fix memleak when unregistering dynamic ops when tracing disabled

2017-09-27T09:00:17+00:00

commit edb096e00724f02db5f6ec7900f3bbd465c6c76f upstream.

If function tracing is disabled by the user via the function-trace option or
the proc sysctl file, and a ftrace_ops that was allocated on the heap is
unregistered, then the shutdown code exits out without doing the proper
clean up. This was found via kmemleak and running the ftrace selftests, as
one of the tests unregisters with function tracing disabled.

tracing: Apply trace_clock changes to instance max buffer

2017-09-27T09:00:16+00:00

commit 170b3b1050e28d1ba0700e262f0899ffa4fccc52 upstream.

Currently trace_clock timestamps are applied to both regular and max
buffers only for global trace. For instance trace, trace_clock
timestamps are applied only to regular buffer. But, regular and max
buffers can be swapped, for example, following a snapshot. So, for
instance trace, bad timestamps can be seen following a snapshot.
Let's apply trace_clock timestamps to instance max buffer as well.

ftrace: Fix selftest goto location on error

commit 46320a6acc4fb58f04bcf78c4c942cc43b20f986 upstream.

In the second iteration of trace_selftest_ops(), the error goto label is
wrong in the case where trace_selftest_test_global_cnt is off. In the
case of error, it leaks the dynamic ops that was allocated.

The function create_filter() is passed a 'filterp' pointer that gets
allocated, and if "set_str" is true, it is up to the caller to free it, even
on error. The problem is that the pointer is not freed by create_filter()
when set_str is false. This is a bug, and it is not up to the caller to free
the filter on error if it doesn't care about the string.

My static checker complains that if "func" is NULL then "clear_filter"

possible something subtle is happening that I haven't seen.

tracing: Use SOFTIRQ_OFFSET for softirq dectection for more accurate results

2017-07-21T05:44:59+00:00

commit c59f29cb144a6a0dfac16ede9dc8eafc02dc56ca upstream.

The 's' flag is supposed to indicate that a softirq is running. This
can be detected by testing the preempt_count with SOFTIRQ_OFFSET.

The current code tests the preempt_count with SOFTIRQ_MASK, which
would be true even when softirqs are disabled but not serving a
softirq.

tracing/kprobes: Allow to create probe with a module name starting with a digit

2017-07-15T09:57:45+00:00

commit 9e52b32567126fe146f198971364f68d3bc5233f upstream.

Always try to parse an address, since kstrtoul() will safely fail when
given a symbol as input. If that fails (which will be the case for a
symbol), try to parse a symbol instead.

This allows creating a probe such as:

    p:probe/vlan_gro_receive 8021q:vlan_gro_receive+0

Which is necessary for this command to work:

    perf probe -m 8021q -a vlan_gro_receive
