git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Fix printf format warning for bprintf sunrpc uses a trace_printk() that triggers a printf warning during the compile. Move the __printf() attribute around for when debugging is not enabled the warning will go away - Remove redundant check for EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED in event_filter_write() The FREED flag is checked in the call to event_file_file() and then checked again right afterward, which is unneeded - Clean up event_file_file() and event_file_data() helpers These helper functions played a different role in the past, but now with eventfs, the READ_ONCE() isn't needed. Simplify the code a bit and also add a warning to event_file_data() if the file or its data is not present - Remove updating file->private_data in tracing open All access to the file private data is handled by the helper functions, which do not use file->private_data. Stop updating it on open - Show ENUM names in function arguments via BTF in function tracing When showing the function arguments when func-args option is set for function tracing, if one of the arguments is found to be an enum, show the name of the enum instead of its number - Add new trace_call__##name() API for tracepoints Tracepoints are enabled via static_branch() blocks, where when not enabled, there's only a nop that is in the code where the execution will just skip over it. When tracing is enabled, the nop is converted to a direct jump to the tracepoint code. Sometimes more calculations are required to be performed to update the parameters of the tracepoint. In this case, trace_##name##_enabled() is called which is a static_branch() that gets enabled only when the tracepoint is enabled. This allows the extra calculations to also be skipped by the nop: if (trace_foo_enabled()) { x = bar(); trace_foo(x); } Where the x=bar() is only performed when foo is enabled. The problem with this approach is that there's now two static_branch() calls. One for checking if the tracepoint is enabled, and then again to know if the tracepoint should be called. The second one is redundant Introduce trace_call__foo() that will call the foo() tracepoint directly without doing a static_branch(): if (trace_foo_enabled()) { x = bar(); trace_call__foo(); } - Update various locations to use the new trace_call__##name() API - Move snapshot code out of trace.c Cleaning up trace.c to not be a "dump all", move the snapshot code out of it and into a new trace_snapshot.c file - Clean up some "%*.s" to "%*s" - Allow boot kernel command line options to be called multiple times Have options like: ftrace_filter=foo ftrace_filter=bar ftrace_filter=zoo Equal to: ftrace_filter=foo,bar,zoo - Fix ipi_raise event CPU field to be a CPU field The ipi_raise target_cpus field is defined as a __bitmask(). There is now a __cpumask() field definition. Update the field to use that - Have hist_field_name() use a snprintf() and not a series of strcat() It's safer to use snprintf() that a series of strcat() - Fix tracepoint regfunc balancing A tracepoint can define a "reg" and "unreg" function that gets called before the tracepoint is enabled, and after it is disabled respectively. But on error, after the "reg" func is called and the tracepoint is not enabled, the "unreg" function is not called to tear down what the "reg" function performed - Fix output that shows what histograms are enabled Event variables are displayed incorrectly in the histogram output Instead of "sched.sched_wakeup.$var", it is showing "$sched.sched_wakeup.var" where the '$' is in the incorrect location - Some other simple cleanups * tag 'trace-v7.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (24 commits) selftests/ftrace: Add test case for fully-qualified variable references tracing: Fix fully-qualified variable reference printing in histograms tracepoint: balance regfunc() on func_add() failure in tracepoint_add_func() tracing: Rebuild full_name on each hist_field_name() call tracing: Report ipi_raise target CPUs as cpumask tracing: Remove duplicate latency_fsnotify() stub tracing: Preserve repeated trace_trigger boot parameters tracing: Append repeated boot-time tracing parameters tracing: Remove spurious default precision from show_event_trigger/filter formats cpufreq: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites tracing: Remove tracing_alloc_snapshot() when snapshot isn't defined tracing: Move snapshot code out of trace.c and into trace_snapshot.c mm: damon: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites btrfs: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites spi: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites i2c: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites kernel: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites tracepoint: Add trace_call__##name() API tracing: trace_mmap.h: fix a kernel-doc warning tracing: Pretty-print enum parameters in function arguments ...

Pull kvm updates from Paolo Bonzini: "Arm: - Add support for tracing in the standalone EL2 hypervisor code, which should help both debugging and performance analysis. This uses the new infrastructure for 'remote' trace buffers that can be exposed by non-kernel entities such as firmware, and which came through the tracing tree - Add support for GICv5 Per Processor Interrupts (PPIs), as the starting point for supporting the new GIC architecture in KVM - Finally add support for pKVM protected guests, where pages are unmapped from the host as they are faulted into the guest and can be shared back from the guest using pKVM hypercalls. Protected guests are created using a new machine type identifier. As the elusive guestmem has not yet delivered on its promises, anonymous memory is also supported This is only a first step towards full isolation from the host; for example, the CPU register state and DMA accesses are not yet isolated. Because this does not really yet bring fully what it promises, it is hidden behind CONFIG_ARM_PKVM_GUEST + 'kvm-arm.mode=protected', and also triggers TAINT_USER when a VM is created. Caveat emptor - Rework the dreaded user_mem_abort() function to make it more maintainable, reducing the amount of state being exposed to the various helpers and rendering a substantial amount of state immutable - Expand the Stage-2 page table dumper to support NV shadow page tables on a per-VM basis - Tidy up the pKVM PSCI proxy code to be slightly less hard to follow - Fix both SPE and TRBE in non-VHE configurations so that they do not generate spurious, out of context table walks that ultimately lead to very bad HW lockups - A small set of patches fixing the Stage-2 MMU freeing in error cases - Tighten-up accepted SMC immediate value to be only #0 for host SMCCC calls - The usual cleanups and other selftest churn LoongArch: - Use CSR_CRMD_PLV for kvm_arch_vcpu_in_kernel() - Add DMSINTC irqchip in kernel support RISC-V: - Fix steal time shared memory alignment checks - Fix vector context allocation leak - Fix array out-of-bounds in pmu_ctr_read() and pmu_fw_ctr_read_hi() - Fix double-free of sdata in kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() - Fix integer overflow in kvm_pmu_validate_counter_mask() - Fix shift-out-of-bounds in make_xfence_request() - Fix lost write protection on huge pages during dirty logging - Split huge pages during fault handling for dirty logging - Skip CSR restore if VCPU is reloaded on the same core - Implement kvm_arch_has_default_irqchip() for KVM selftests - Factored-out ISA checks into separate sources - Added hideleg to struct kvm_vcpu_config - Factored-out VCPU config into separate sources - Support configuration of per-VM HGATP mode from KVM user space s390: - Support for ESA (31-bit) guests inside nested hypervisors - Remove restriction on memslot alignment, which is not needed anymore with the new gmap code - Fix LPSW/E to update the bear (which of course is the breaking event address register) x86: - Shut up various UBSAN warnings on reading module parameter before they were initialized - Don't zero-allocate page tables that are used for splitting hugepages in the TDP MMU, as KVM is guaranteed to set all SPTEs in the page table and thus write all bytes - As an optimization, bail early when trying to unsync 4KiB mappings if the target gfn can just be mapped with a 2MiB hugepage x86 generic: - Copy single-chunk MMIO write values into struct kvm_vcpu (more precisely struct kvm_mmio_fragment) to fix use-after-free stack bugs where KVM would dereference stack pointer after an exit to userspace - Clean up and comment the emulated MMIO code to try to make it easier to maintain (not necessarily "easy", but "easier") - Move VMXON+VMXOFF and EFER.SVME toggling out of KVM (not *all* of VMX and SVM enabling) as it is needed for trusted I/O - Advertise support for AVX512 Bit Matrix Multiply (BMM) instructions - Immediately fail the build if a required #define is missing in one of KVM's headers that is included multiple times - Reject SET_GUEST_DEBUG with -EBUSY if there's an already injected exception, mostly to prevent syzkaller from abusing the uAPI to trigger WARNs, but also because it can help prevent userspace from unintentionally crashing the VM - Exempt SMM from CPUID faulting on Intel, as per the spec - Misc hardening and cleanup changes x86 (AMD): - Fix and optimize IRQ window inhibit handling for AVIC; make it per-vCPU so that KVM doesn't prematurely re-enable AVIC if multiple vCPUs have to-be-injected IRQs - Clean up and optimize the OSVW handling, avoiding a bug in which KVM would overwrite state when enabling virtualization on multiple CPUs in parallel. This should not be a problem because OSVW should usually be the same for all CPUs - Drop a WARN in KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION where KVM complains about a "too large" size based purely on user input - Clean up and harden the pinning code for KVM_MEMORY_ENCRYPT_REG_REGION - Disallow synchronizing a VMSA of an already-launched/encrypted vCPU, as doing so for an SNP guest will crash the host due to an RMP violation page fault - Overhaul KVM's APIs for detecting SEV+ guests so that VM-scoped queries are required to hold kvm->lock, and enforce it by lockdep. Fix various bugs where sev_guest() was not ensured to be stable for the whole duration of a function or ioctl - Convert a pile of kvm->lock SEV code to guard() - Play nicer with userspace that does not enable KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD, for which KVM needs to set CR2 and DR6 as a response to ioctls such as KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS (even if the payload would end up in EXITINFO2 rather than CR2, for example). Only set CR2 and DR6 when consumption of the payload is imminent, but on the other hand force delivery of the payload in all paths where userspace retrieves CR2 or DR6 - Use vcpu->arch.cr2 when updating vmcb12's CR2 on nested #VMEXIT instead of vmcb02->save.cr2. The value is out of sync after a save/restore or after a #PF is injected into L2 - Fix a class of nSVM bugs where some fields written by the CPU are not synchronized from vmcb02 to cached vmcb12 after VMRUN, and so are not up-to-date when saved by KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE - Fix a class of bugs where the ordering between KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE and KVM_SET_{S}REGS could cause vmcb02 to be incorrectly initialized after save+restore - Add a variety of missing nSVM consistency checks - Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly update VMCB fields on nested #VMEXIT - Fix several bugs where KVM failed to correctly synthesize #UD or #GP for SVM-related instructions - Add support for save+restore of virtualized LBRs (on SVM) - Refactor various helpers and macros to improve clarity and (hopefully) make the code easier to maintain - Aggressively sanitize fields when copying from vmcb12, to guard against unintentionally allowing L1 to utilize yet-to-be-defined features - Fix several bugs where KVM botched rAX legality checks when emulating SVM instructions. There are remaining issues in that KVM doesn't handle size prefix overrides for 64-bit guests - Fail emulation of VMRUN/VMLOAD/VMSAVE if mapping vmcb12 fails instead of somewhat arbitrarily synthesizing #GP (i.e. don't double down on AMD's architectural but sketchy behavior of generating #GP for "unsupported" addresses) - Cache all used vmcb12 fields to further harden against TOCTOU bugs x86 (Intel): - Drop obsolete branch hint prefixes from the VMX instruction macros - Use ASM_INPUT_RM() in __vmcs_writel() to coerce clang into using a register input when appropriate - Code cleanups guest_memfd: - Don't mark guest_memfd folios as accessed, as guest_memfd doesn't support reclaim, the memory is unevictable, and there is no storage to write back to LoongArch selftests: - Add KVM PMU test cases s390 selftests: - Enable more memory selftests x86 selftests: - Add support for Hygon CPUs in KVM selftests - Fix a bug in the MSR test where it would get false failures on AMD/Hygon CPUs with exactly one of RDPID or RDTSCP - Add an MADV_COLLAPSE testcase for guest_memfd as a regression test for a bug where the kernel would attempt to collapse guest_memfd folios against KVM's will" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm: (373 commits) KVM: x86: use inlines instead of macros for is_sev_*guest x86/virt: Treat SVM as unsupported when running as an SEV+ guest KVM: SEV: Goto an existing error label if charging misc_cg for an ASID fails KVM: SVM: Move lock-protected allocation of SEV ASID into a separate helper KVM: SEV: use mutex guard in snp_handle_guest_req() KVM: SEV: use mutex guard in sev_mem_enc_unregister_region() KVM: SEV: use mutex guard in sev_mem_enc_ioctl() KVM: SEV: use mutex guard in snp_launch_update() KVM: SEV: Assert that kvm->lock is held when querying SEV+ support KVM: SEV: Document that checking for SEV+ guests when reclaiming memory is "safe" KVM: SEV: Hide "struct kvm_sev_info" behind CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV=y KVM: SEV: WARN on unhandled VM type when initializing VM KVM: LoongArch: selftests: Add PMU overflow interrupt test KVM: LoongArch: selftests: Add basic PMU event counting test KVM: LoongArch: selftests: Add cpucfg read/write helpers LoongArch: KVM: Add DMSINTC inject msi to vCPU LoongArch: KVM: Add DMSINTC device support LoongArch: KVM: Make vcpu_is_preempted() as a macro rather than function LoongArch: KVM: Move host CSR_GSTAT save and restore in context switch LoongArch: KVM: Move host CSR_EENTRY save and restore in context switch ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt: - Add remote buffers for pKVM pKVM has a hypervisor component that is used to protect the guest from the host kernel. This hypervisor is a black box to the kernel as the kernel is to user space. The remote buffers are used to have a memory mapping between the hypervisor and the kernel where kernel may send commands to enable tracing within the hypervisor. Then the kernel will read this memory mapping just like user space can read the memory mapped ring buffer of the kernel tracing system. Since the hypervisor only has a single context, it doesn't need to worry about races between normal context, interrupt context and NMIs like the kernel does. The ring buffer it uses doesn't need to be as complex. The remote buffers are a simple version of the ring buffer that works in a single context. They are still per-CPU and use sub buffers. The data layout is the same as the kernel's ring buffer to share the same parsing. Currently, only ARM64 implements pKVM, but there's work to implement it also in x86. The remote buffer code is separated out from the ARM implementation so that it can be used in the future by x86. The ARM64 updates for pKVM is in the ARM/KVM tree and it merged in the remote buffers of this tree. - Make the backup instance non reusable The backup instance is a copy of the persistent ring buffer so that the persistent ring buffer could start recording again without using the data from the previous boot. The backup isn't for normal tracing. It is made read-only, and after it is consumed, it is automatically removed. - Have backup copy persistent instance before it starts recording To allow the persistent ring buffer to start recording from the kernel command line commands, move the copy of the backup instance to before the the command line options start recording. - Report header_page overwrite field as "char" and not "int' The rust parser of the header_page file was triggering a warning when it defined the overwrite variable as "int" but it was only a single byte in size. - Fix memory barriers for the trace_buffer CPU mask When a CPU comes online, the bit is set to allow readers to know that the CPU buffer is allocated. The bit is set after the allocation is done, and a smp_wmb() is performed after the allocation and before the setting of the bit. But instead of adding a smp_rmb() to all readers, since once a buffer is created for a CPU it is not deleted if that CPU goes offline, so this allocation is almost always done at boot up before any readers exist. If for the unlikely case where a CPU comes online for the first time after the system boot has finished, send an IPI to all CPUs to force the smp_rmb() for each CPU. - Show clock function being used in debugging ring buffer data When the ring buffer checks are enabled and the ring buffer detects an inconsistency in the times of the invents, print out the clock being used when the error occurred. There was a very hard to hit bug that would happen every so often and it ended up being only triggered when the jiffies clock was being used. If the bug showed the clock being used, it would have been much easier to find the problem (which was an internal function was being traced which caused the clock accounting to go off). * tag 'trace-ringbuffer-v7.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (26 commits) ring-buffer: Prevent off-by-one array access in ring_buffer_desc_page() ring-buffer: Report header_page overwrite as char tracing: Allow backup to save persistent ring buffer before it starts tracing/Documentation: Add a section about backup instance tracing: Remove the backup instance automatically after read tracing: Make the backup instance non-reusable ring-buffer: Enforce read ordering of trace_buffer cpumask and buffers ring-buffer: Show what clock function is used on timestamp errors tracing: Check for undefined symbols in simple_ring_buffer tracing: load/unload page callbacks for simple_ring_buffer Documentation: tracing: Add tracing remotes tracing: selftests: Add trace remote tests tracing: Add a trace remote module for testing tracing: Introduce simple_ring_buffer ring-buffer: Export buffer_data_page and macros tracing: Add helpers to create trace remote events tracing: Add events/ root files to trace remotes tracing: Add events to trace remotes tracing: Add init callback to trace remotes tracing: Add non-consuming read to trace remotes ...

check_requires() compares requirement strings that can contain shell pattern characters such as '[' and ']'. Under /bin/sh, the unquoted test expressions can emit 'unexpected operator' warnings while parsing README-backed requirements.

The ftracetest script is a fairly complete test framework for tracefs-like subsystem, but it can only be used for ftrace selftests. If OPT_TEST_DIR is provided and includes a function file, use that as test directory going forward rather than just grabbing tests from it. Generalise function names like initialize_ftrace to initialize_system. Add the --rv argument to set up the test for rv, basically changing the trace directory to $TRACING_DIR/rv and displaying an error if that cannot be found. This prepares for rv selftests inclusion.

2025-11-10selftests/tracing: Run sample events to clear page cache eventsSteven Rostedt
The tracing selftest "event-filter-function.tc" was failing because it first runs the "sample_events" function that triggers the kmem_cache_free event and it looks at what function was used during a call to "ls". But the first time it calls this, it could trigger events that are used to pull pages into the page cache. The rest of the test uses the function it finds during that call to see if it will be called in subsequent "sample_events" calls. But if there's no need to pull pages into the page cache, it will not trigger that function and the test will fail. Call the "sample_events" twice to trigger all the page cache work before it calls it to find a function to use in subsequent checks.

Unfortunately, the self tests have tests for trace_marker but nothing for trace_marker_raw which allowed the bug to get upstream.

2025-07-24selftests/tracing: Fix false failure of subsystem event testSteven Rostedt
The subsystem event test enables all "sched" events and makes sure there's at least 3 different events in the output. It used to cat the entire trace file to | wc -l, but on slow machines, that could last a very long time. To solve that, it was changed to just read the first 100 lines of the trace file. This can cause false failures as some events repeat so often, that the 100 lines that are examined could possibly be of only one event. Instead, create an awk script that looks for 3 different events and will exit out after it finds them. This will find the 3 events the test looks for (eventually if it works), and still exit out after the test is satisfied and not cause slower machines to run forever.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Initialize hash variables in ftrace subops logic The fix that simplified the ftrace subops logic opened a path where some variables could be used without being initialized, and done subtly where the compiler did not catch it. Initialize those variables to the EMPTY_HASH, which is the default hash. - Reinitialize the hash pointers after they are freed Some of the hash pointers in the subop logic were freed but may still be referenced later. To prevent use-after-free bugs, initialize them back to the EMPTY_HASH. - Free the ftrace hashes when they are replaced The fix that simplified the subops logic updated some hash pointers, but left the original hash that they were pointing to where they are no longer used. This caused a memory leak. Free the hashes that are pointed to by the pointers when they are replaced. - Fix size initialization of ftrace direct function hash The ftrace direct function hash used by BPF initialized the hash size incorrectly. It checked the size of items to a hard coded 32, which made the hash bit size of 5. The hash size is supposed to be limited by the bit size of the hash, as the bitmask is allowed to be greater than 5. Rework the size check to first pass the number of elements to fls() and then compare that to FTRACE_HASH_MAX_BITS before allocating the hash. - Fix format output of ftrace_graph_ent_entry event The field depth of the ftrace_graph_ent_entry event is of size 4 but the output showed it as unsigned long and use "%lu". Change it to unsigned int and use "%u" in the print format that is displayed to user space. - Fix the trace event filter on strings Events can be filtered on numbers or string values. The return value checked from strncpy_from_kernel_nofault() and strncpy_from_user_nofault() was used to determine if reading the strings would fault or not. It would return fault if the value was non zero, which is basically meant that it was always considering the read as a fault. - Add selftest to test trace event string filtering In order to catch the breakage of the string filtering, add a self test to make sure that it continues to work. * tag 'trace-v6.15-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: tracing: selftests: Add testing a user string to filters tracing: Fix filter string testing ftrace: Fix type of ftrace_graph_ent_entry.depth ftrace: fix incorrect hash size in register_ftrace_direct() ftrace: Free ftrace hashes after they are replaced in the subops code ftrace: Reinitialize hash to EMPTY_HASH after freeing ftrace: Initialize variables for ftrace_startup/shutdown_subops()

2025-04-16selftests/ftrace: Differentiate bash and dash in dynevent_limitations.tcSteven Rostedt
bash and dash evaluate variables differently. dash will evaluate '\\' every time it is read whereas bash does not. TEST_STRING="$TEST_STRING \\$i" echo $TEST_STRING With i=123 On bash, that will print "\123" but on dash, that will print the escape sequence of \123 as the \ will be interpreted again in the echo. The dynevent_limitations.tc test created a very large list of arguments to test the maximum number of arguments to pass to the dynamic events file. It had a loop of: TEST_STRING=$1 # Acceptable for i in `seq 1 $MAX_ARGS`; do TEST_STRING="$TEST_STRING \\$i" done echo "$TEST_STRING" >> dynamic_events This worked fine on bash, but when run on dash it failed. This was due to dash interpreting the "\\$i" twice. Once when it was assigned to TEST_STRING and a second time with the echo $TEST_STRING. bash does not process the backslash more than the first time. To solve this, assign a double backslash to a variable "bs" and then echo it to "ts". If "ts" changes, it is dash, if not, it is bash. Then update "bs" accordingly, and use that to assign TEST_STRING. Now this could possibly just check if "$BASH" is defined or not, but this is testing if the issue exists and not just which shell is being used.

This assumption is not necessarily true. Therefore use "readelf -h" to find the entry point address of /bin/sh and use this address when adding the uprobe event. This adds a dependency to readelf which is not always installed. Therefore add a check and exit with exit_unresolved if it is not installed.

2025-02-21selftests/ftrace: Update fprobe test to check enabled_functions fileSteven Rostedt
A few bugs were found in the fprobe accounting logic along with it using the function graph infrastructure. Update the fprobe selftest to catch those bugs in case they or something similar shows up in the future. The test now checks the enabled_functions file which shows all the functions attached to ftrace or fgraph. When enabling a fprobe, make sure that its corresponding function is also added to that file. Also add two more fprobes to enable to make sure that the fprobe logic works properly with multiple probes.

2025-02-20selftests/tracing: Test only toplevel README file not the instancesSteven Rostedt
For the tests that have both a README attribute as well as the instance flag to run the tests as an instance, the instance version will always exit with UNSUPPORTED. That's because the instance directory does not contain a README file. Currently, the tests check for a README file in the directory that the test runs in and if there's a requirement for something to be present in the README file, it will not find it, as the instance directory doesn't have it. Have the tests check if the current directory is an instance directory, and if it is, check two directories above the current directory for the README file: /sys/kernel/tracing/README /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/foo/../../README Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250220185846.130216270@goodmis.org Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in the error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free memory when the function exits. - Update the Rust tracepoint code to use the C code too There was some duplication of the tracepoint code for Rust that did the same logic as the C code. Add a helper that makes it possible for both algorithms to use the same logic in one place. - Add poll to trace event hist files It is useful to know when an event is triggered, or even with some filtering. Since hist files of events get updated when active and the event is triggered, allow applications to poll the hist file and wake up when an event is triggered. This will let the application know that the event it is waiting for happened. - Add :mod: command to enable events for current or future modules The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be traced in modules by writing ":mod:<module>" into set_ftrace_filter. That will enable either all the functions for the module if it is loaded, or if it is not, it will cache that command, and when the module is loaded that matches <module>, its functions will be enabled. This also allows init functions to be traced. But currently events do not have that feature. Add the command where if ':mod:<module>' is written into set_event, then either all the modules events are enabled if it is loaded, or cache it so that the module's events are enabled when it is loaded. This also works from the kernel command line, where "trace_event=:mod:<module>", when the module is loaded at boot up, its events will be enabled then. * tag 'trace-v6.14-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (26 commits) tracing: Fix output of set_event for some cached module events tracing: Fix allocation of printing set_event file content tracing: Rename update_cache() to update_mod_cache() tracing: Fix #if CONFIG_MODULES to #ifdef CONFIG_MODULES selftests/ftrace: Add test that tests event :mod: commands tracing: Cache ":mod:" events for modules not loaded yet tracing: Add :mod: command to enabled module events selftests/tracing: Add hist poll() support test tracing/hist: Support POLLPRI event for poll on histogram tracing/hist: Add poll(POLLIN) support on hist file tracing: Fix using ret variable in tracing_set_tracer() tracepoint: Reduce duplication of __DO_TRACE_CALL tracing/string: Create and use __free(argv_free) in trace_dynevent.c tracing: Switch trace_stat.c code over to use guard() tracing: Switch trace_stack.c code over to use guard() tracing: Switch trace_osnoise.c code over to use guard() and __free() tracing: Switch trace_events_synth.c code over to use guard() tracing: Switch trace_events_filter.c code over to use guard() tracing: Switch trace_events_trigger.c code over to use guard() tracing: Switch trace_events_hist.c code over to use guard() ...
