commit 30fb6aa74011dcf595f306ca2727254d708b786e upstream.
Multiple users of the function tracer can register their functions
with the ftrace_ops structure. The accounting within ftrace will
update the counter on each function record that is being traced.
When the ftrace_ops filtering adds or removes functions, the
function records will be updated accordingly if the ftrace_ops is
still registered.
When a ftrace_ops is removed, the counter of the function records,
that the ftrace_ops traces, are decremented. When they reach zero
the functions that they represent are modified to stop calling the
mcount code.
When changes are made, the code is updated via stop_machine() with
a command passed to the function to tell it what to do. There is an
ENABLE and DISABLE command that tells the called function to enable
or disable the functions. But the ENABLE is really a misnomer as it
should just update the records, as records that have been enabled
and now have a count of zero should be disabled.
The DISABLE command is used to disable all functions regardless of
their counter values. This is the big off switch and is not the
complement of the ENABLE command.
To make matters worse, when a ftrace_ops is unregistered and there
is another ftrace_ops registered, neither the DISABLE nor the
ENABLE command are set when calling into the stop_machine() function
and the records will not be updated to match their counter. A command
is passed to that function that will update the mcount code to call
the registered callback directly if it is the only one left. This
means that the ftrace_ops that is still registered will have its callback
called by all functions that have been set for it as well as the ftrace_ops
that was just unregistered.
Here's a way to trigger this bug. Compile the kernel with
CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER set and with CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH not set:
CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER=y
# CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH is not set
This will force the function profiler to use the function tracer instead
of the function graph tracer.

The same problem could have happened with the trace_probe_ops,
but they are modified with the set_frace_filter file which does the
update at closure of the file.
The simple solution is to change ENABLE to UPDATE and call it every
time an ftrace_ops is unregistered.

commit 072126f4529196f71a97960248bca54fd4554c2d upstream.
Currently, if set_ftrace_filter() is called when the ftrace_ops is
active, the function filters will not be updated. They will only be updated
when tracing is disabled and re-enabled.
Update the functions immediately during set_ftrace_filter().

commit 41fb61c2d08107ce96a5dcb3a6289b2afd3e135c upstream.
Whenever the hash of the ftrace_ops is updated, the record counts
must be balance. This requires disabling the records that are set
in the original hash, and then enabling the records that are set
in the updated hash.
Moving the update into ftrace_hash_move() removes the bug where the
hash was updated but the records were not, which results in ftrace
triggering a warning and disabling itself because the ftrace_ops filter
is updated while the ftrace_ops was registered, and then the failure
happens when the ftrace_ops is unregistered.
The current code will not trigger this bug, but new code will.

commit cb59974742aea24adf6637eb0c4b8e7b48bca6fb upstream.
Fix a bug introduced by e9dbfae5, which prevents event_subsystem from
ever being released.
Ref_count was added to keep track of subsystem users, not for counting
events. Subsystem is created with ref_count = 1, so there is no need to
increment it for every event, we have nr_events for that. Fix this by
touching ref_count only when we actually have a new user -
subsystem_open().

commit 436fc280261dcfce5af38f08b89287750dc91cd2 upstream.
The trace_pipe_raw handler holds a cached page from the time the file
is opened to the time it is closed. The cached page is used to handle
the case of the user space buffer being smaller than what was read from
the ring buffer. The left over buffer is held in the cache so that the
next read will continue where the data left off.
After EOF is returned (no more data in the buffer), the index of
the cached page is set to zero. If a user app reads the page again
after EOF, the check in the buffer will see that the cached page
is less than page size and will return the cached page again. This
will cause reading the trace_pipe_raw again after EOF to return
duplicate data, making the output look like the time went backwards
but instead data is just repeated.
The fix is to not reset the index right after all data is read
from the cache, but to reset it after all data is read and more
data exists in the ring buffer.

commit f7bc8b61f65726ff98f52e286b28e294499d7a08 upstream.
Enabling function tracer to trace all functions, then load a module and
then disable function tracing will cause ftrace to fail.
This can also happen by enabling function tracing on the command line:
ftrace=function
and during boot up, modules are loaded, then you disable function tracing
with 'echo nop > current_tracer' you will trigger a bug in ftrace that
will shut itself down.
The reason is, the new ftrace code keeps ref counts of all ftrace_ops that
are registered for tracing. When one or more ftrace_ops are registered,
all the records that represent the functions that the ftrace_ops will
trace have a ref count incremented. If this ref count is not zero,
when the code modification runs, that function will be enabled for tracing.
If the ref count is zero, that function will be disabled from tracing.
To make sure the accounting was working, FTRACE_WARN_ON()s were added
to updating of the ref counts.
If the ref count hits its max (> 2^30 ftrace_ops added), or if
the ref count goes below zero, a FTRACE_WARN_ON() is triggered which
disables all modification of code.
Since it is common for ftrace_ops to trace all functions in the kernel,
instead of creating > 20,000 hash items for the ftrace_ops, the hash
count is just set to zero, and it represents that the ftrace_ops is
to trace all functions. This is where the issues arrise.
If you enable function tracing to trace all functions, and then add
a module, the modules function records do not get the ref count updated.
When the function tracer is disabled, all function records ref counts
are subtracted. Since the modules never had their ref counts incremented,
they go below zero and the FTRACE_WARN_ON() is triggered.
The solution to this is rather simple. When modules are loaded, and
their functions are added to the the ftrace pool, look to see if any
ftrace_ops are registered that trace all functions. And for those,
update the ref count for the module function records.

commit 43dd61c9a09bd413e837df829e6bfb42159be52a upstream.
The new code that allows different utilities to pick and choose
what functions they trace broke the :mod: hook that allows users
to trace only functions of a particular module.
The reason is that the :mod: hook bypasses the hash that is setup
to allow individual users to trace their own functions and uses
the global hash directly. But if the global hash has not been
set up, it will cause a bug:
echo '*:mod:radeon' > /sys/kernel/debug/set_ftrace_filter

commit 40ee4dffff061399eb9358e0c8fcfbaf8de4c8fe upstream.
The "enable" file for the event system can be removed when a module
is unloaded and the event system only has events from that module.
As the event system nr_events count goes to zero, it may be freed
if its ref_count is also set to zero.
Like the "filter" file, the "enable" file may be opened by a task and
referenced later, after a module has been unloaded and the events for
that event system have been removed.
Although the "filter" file referenced the event system structure,
the "enable" file only references a pointer to the event system
name. Since the name is freed when the event system is removed,
it is possible that an access to the "enable" file may reference
a freed pointer.
Update the "enable" file to use the subsystem_open() routine that
the "filter" file uses, to keep a reference to the event system
structure while the "enable" file is opened.

commit e9dbfae53eeb9fc3d4bb7da3df87fa9875f5da02 upstream.
The event system is freed when its nr_events is set to zero. This happens
when a module created an event system and then later the module is
removed. Modules may share systems, so the system is allocated when
it is created and freed when the modules are unloaded and all the
events under the system are removed (nr_events set to zero).
The problem arises when a task opened the "filter" file for the
system. If the module is unloaded and it removed the last event for
that system, the system structure is freed. If the task that opened
the filter file accesses the "filter" file after the system has
been freed, the system will access an invalid pointer.
By adding a ref_count, and using it to keep track of what
is using the event system, we can free it after all users
are finished with the event system.

Revert the commit that removed the disabling of interrupts around
the initial modifying of mcount callers to nops, and update the comment.
The original comment was outdated and stated that the interrupts were
being disabled to prevent kstop machine, which was required with the
old ftrace daemon, but was no longer the case.
What the comment failed to mention was that interrupts needed to be
disabled to keep interrupts from preempting the modifying of the code
and then executing the code that was partially modified.

With gcc 4.6, the self test kprobe function:
kprobe_trace_selftest_target()
is optimized such that kallsyms does not list it. The kprobes
test uses this function to insert a probe and test it. But
it will fail the test if the function is not listed in kallsyms.
Adding a __used annotation keeps the symbol in the kallsyms table.

Witold reported a reboot caused by the selftests of the dynamic function
tracer. He sent me a config and I used ktest to do a config_bisect on it
(as my config did not cause the crash). It pointed out that the problem
config was CONFIG_PROVE_RCU.
What happened was that if multiple callbacks are attached to the
function tracer, we iterate a list of callbacks. Because the list is
managed by synchronize_sched() and preempt_disable, the access to the
pointers uses rcu_dereference_raw().
When PROVE_RCU is enabled, the rcu_dereference_raw() calls some
debugging functions, which happen to be traced. The tracing of the debug
function would then call rcu_dereference_raw() which would then call the
debug function and then... well you get the idea.
I first wrote two different patches to solve this bug.
1) add a __rcu_dereference_raw() that would not do any checks.
2) add notrace to the offending debug functions.
Both of these patches worked.
Talking with Paul McKenney on IRC, he suggested to add recursion
detection instead. This seemed to be a better solution, so I decided to
implement it. As the task_struct already has a trace_recursion to detect
recursion in the ring buffer, and that has a very small number it
allows, I decided to use that same variable to add flags that can detect
the recursion inside the infrastructure of the function tracer.
I plan to change it so that the task struct bit can be checked in
mcount, but as that requires changes to all archs, I will hold that off
to the next merge window.

Since users of the function tracer can now pick and choose which
functions they want to trace agnostically from other users of the
function tracer, we need to pass the ops struct to the ftrace_set_filter()

Now that functions may be selected individually, it only makes sense
that we should allow dynamically allocated trace structures to
be traced. This will allow perf to allocate a ftrace_ops structure
at runtime and use it to pick and choose which functions that
structure will trace.
Note, a dynamically allocated ftrace_ops will always be called
indirectly instead of being called directly from the mcount in
entry.S. This is because there's no safe way to prevent mcount
from being preempted before calling the function, unless we
modify every entry.S to do so (not likely). Thus, dynamically allocated
functions will now be called by the ftrace_ops_list_func() that
loops through the ops that are allocated if there are more than
one op allocated at a time. This loop is protected with a
preempt_disable.
To determine if an ftrace_ops structure is allocated or not, a new
util function was added to the kernel/extable.c called
core_kernel_data(), which returns 1 if the address is between
_sdata and _edata.

ftrace_ops that are registered to trace functions can now be
agnostic to each other in respect to what functions they trace.
Each ops has their own hash of the functions they want to trace
and a hash to what they do not want to trace. A empty hash for
the functions they want to trace denotes all functions should
be traced that are not in the notrace hash.

When a hash is modified and might be in use, we need to perform
a schedule RCU operation on it, as the hashes will soon be used
directly in the function tracer callback.

This is a step towards each ops structure defining its own set
of functions to trace. As the current code with pid's and such
are specific to the global_ops, it is restructured to be used
with the global ops.

In order to allow different ops to enable different functions,
the ftrace_startup() and ftrace_shutdown() functions need the

Add the enabled_functions file that is used to show all the
functions that have been enabled for tracing as well as their
ref counts. This helps seeing if any function has been registered
and what functions are being traced.

Every function has its own record that stores the instruction
pointer and flags for the function to be traced. There are only
two flags: enabled and free. The enabled flag states that tracing
for the function has been enabled (actively traced), and the free
flag states that the record no longer points to a function and can
be used by new functions (loaded modules).
These flags are now moved to the MSB of the flags (actually just
the top 32bits). The rest of the bits (30 bits) are now used as
a ref counter. Everytime a tracer register functions to trace,
those functions will have its counter incremented.
When tracing is enabled, to determine if a function should be traced,
the counter is examined, and if it is non-zero it is set to trace.
When a ftrace_ops is registered to trace functions, its hashes
are examined. If the ftrace_ops filter_hash count is zero, then
all functions are set to be traced, otherwise only the functions
in the hash are to be traced. The exception to this is if a function
is also in the ftrace_ops notrace_hash. Then that function's counter
is not incremented for this ftrace_ops.

When filtering, allocate a hash to insert the function records.
After the filtering is complete, assign it to the ftrace_ops structure.
This allows the ftrace_ops structure to have a much smaller array of
hash buckets instead of wasting a lot of memory.
A read only empty_hash is created to be the minimum size that any ftrace_ops
can point to.
When a new hash is created, it has the following steps:
o Allocate a default hash.
o Walk the function records assigning the filtered records to the hash
o Allocate a new hash with the appropriate size buckets
o Move the entries from the default hash to the new hash.

Combine the filter and notrace hashes to be accessed by a single entity,
the global_ops. The global_ops is a ftrace_ops structure that is passed
to different functions that can read or modify the filtering of the
function tracer.
The ftrace_ops structure was modified to hold a filter and notrace
hashes so that later patches may allow each ftrace_ops to have its own
set of rules to what functions may be filtered.

When multiple users are allowed to have their own set of functions
to trace, having the FTRACE_FL_FILTER flag will not be enough to
handle the accounting of those users. Each user will need their own
set of functions.
Replace the FTRACE_FL_FILTER with a filter_hash instead. This is
temporary until the rest of the function filtering accounting
gets in.

To prepare for the accounting system that will allow multiple users of
the function tracer, having the FTRACE_FL_NOTRACE as a flag in the
dyn_trace record does not make sense.
All ftrace_ops will soon have a hash of functions they should trace
and not trace. By making a global hash of functions not to trace makes
this easier for the transition.

This partially reverts commit e6e1e2593592a8f6f6380496655d8c6f67431266.
That commit changed the structure layout of the trace structure, which
in turn broke PowerTOP (1.9x generation) quite badly.
I appreciate not wanting to expose the variable in question, and
PowerTOP was not using it, so I've replaced the variable with just a
padding field - that way if in the future a new field is needed it can
just use this padding field.

The updating of a function record is moved to a single function. This will allow
us to add specific changes in one location for both modules and kernel
functions.
Later patches will determine if the function record itself needs to be updated
(which enables the mcount caller), or just the ftrace_ops needs the update.

Since we disable all function tracer processing if we detect
that a modification of a instruction had failed, we do not need
to track that the record has failed. No more ftrace processing
is allowed, and the FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag is pointless.
The FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag was used to denote records that were
successfully converted from mcount calls into nops. But if a single
record fails, all of ftrace is disabled.

The failures file in the debugfs tracing directory would list the
functions that failed to convert when the old dead ftrace daemon
tried to update code but failed. Since this code is now dead along
with the daemon the failures file is useless. Remove it.

The disabling of interrupts around ftrace_update_code() was used
to protect against the evil ftrace daemon from years past. But that
daemon has long been killed. It is safe to keep interrupts enabled
while updating the initial mcount into nops.
The ftrace_mutex is also held which keeps other users at bay.
