Pull ftrace fixes from Steven Rostedt:

 - Add needed READ_ONCE() around access to the fgraph array element

   The updates to the fgraph array can happen when callbacks are
   registered and unregistered. The __ftrace_return_to_handler() can
   handle reading either the old value or the new value. But once it
   reads that value it must stay consistent otherwise the check that
   looks to see if the value is a stub may show false, but if the
   compiler decides to re-read after that check, it can be true which
   can cause the code to crash later on.

 - Make function profiler use the top level ops for filtering again

   When function graph became available for instances, its filter ops
   became independent from the top level set_ftrace_filter. In the
   process the function profiler received its own filter ops as well.
   But the function profiler uses the top level set_ftrace_filter file
   and does not have one of its own. In giving it its own filter ops, it
   lost any user interface it once had. Make it use the top level
   set_ftrace_filter file again. This fixes a regression.

Commit c132be2c4fcc ("function_graph: Have the instances use their own
ftrace_ops for filtering"), function profiler (enabled via
function_profile_enabled) has been showing statistics for all functions,
ignoring set_ftrace_filter settings.

While tracers are instantiated, the function profiler is not. Therefore, it
should use the global set_ftrace_filter for consistency.  This patch
modifies the function profiler to use the global filter, fixing the
filtering functionality.

<title>fgraph: Add READ_ONCE() when accessing fgraph_array[]</title>

<content type='text'>
In __ftrace_return_to_handler(), a loop iterates over the fgraph_array[]
elements, which are fgraph_ops. The loop checks if an element is a
fgraph_stub to prevent using a fgraph_stub afterward.

However, if the compiler reloads fgraph_array[] after this check, it might
race with an update to fgraph_array[] that introduces a fgraph_stub. This
could result in the stub being processed, but the stub contains a null
"func_hash" field, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.

To ensure that the gops compared against the fgraph_stub matches the gops
processed later, add a READ_ONCE(). A similar patch appears in commit
63a8dfb ("function_graph: Add READ_ONCE() when accessing fgraph_array[]").

<title>tracing: Have process_string() also allow arrays</title>
<updated>2024-12-31T05:10:32+00:00</updated>

<id>afc6717628f959941d7b33728570568b4af1c4b8</id>
<content type='text'>
In order to catch a common bug where a TRACE_EVENT() TP_fast_assign()
assigns an address of an allocated string to the ring buffer and then
references it in TP_printk(), which can be executed hours later when the
string is free, the function test_event_printk() runs on all events as
they are registered to make sure there's no unwanted dereferencing.

It calls process_string() to handle cases in TP_printk() format that has
"%s". It returns whether or not the string is safe. But it can have some
false positives.

For instance, xe_bo_move() has:

 TP_printk("move_lacks_source:%s, migrate object %p [size %zu] from %s to %s device_id:%s",
            __entry-&gt;move_lacks_source ? "yes" : "no", __entry-&gt;bo, __entry-&gt;size,
            xe_mem_type_to_name[__entry-&gt;old_placement],
            xe_mem_type_to_name[__entry-&gt;new_placement], __get_str(device_id))

Where the "%s" references into xe_mem_type_to_name[]. This is an array of
pointers that should be safe for the event to access. Instead of flagging
this as a bad reference, if a reference points to an array, where the
record field is the index, consider it safe.

If gcc decides not to inline in_softirq_really(), objtool warns about a
function call with UACCESS enabled:

kernel/kcov.o: warning: objtool: __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc+0x1e: call to in_softirq_really() with UACCESS enabled
kernel/kcov.o: warning: objtool: check_kcov_mode+0x11: call to in_softirq_really() with UACCESS enabled

Mark this as __always_inline to avoid the problem.
