[ Upstream commit 1cc111b9cddc71ce161cd388f11f0e9048edffdb ]
KASAN report following issue. The root cause is when opening 'hist'
file of an instance and accessing 'trace_event_file' in hist_show(),
but 'trace_event_file' has been freed due to the instance being removed.
'hist_debug' file has the same problem. To fix it, call
tracing_{open,release}_file_tr() in file_operations callback to have
the ref count and avoid 'trace_event_file' being freed.

commit bb32500fb9b78215e4ef6ee8b4345c5f5d7eafb4 upstream.
The following can crash the kernel:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 'p:sched schedule' > kprobe_events
# exec 5>>events/kprobes/sched/enable
# > kprobe_events
# exec 5>&-
The above commands:
1. Change directory to the tracefs directory
2. Create a kprobe event (doesn't matter what one)
3. Open bash file descriptor 5 on the enable file of the kprobe event
4. Delete the kprobe event (removes the files too)
5. Close the bash file descriptor 5
The above causes a crash!

RIP: 0010:tracing_release_file_tr+0xc/0x50
What happens here is that the kprobe event creates a trace_event_file
"file" descriptor that represents the file in tracefs to the event. It
maintains state of the event (is it enabled for the given instance?).
Opening the "enable" file gets a reference to the event "file" descriptor
via the open file descriptor. When the kprobe event is deleted, the file is
also deleted from the tracefs system which also frees the event "file"
descriptor.
But as the tracefs file is still opened by user space, it will not be
totally removed until the final dput() is called on it. But this is not
true with the event "file" descriptor that is already freed. If the user
does a write to or simply closes the file descriptor it will reference the
event "file" descriptor that was just freed, causing a use-after-free bug.
To solve this, add a ref count to the event "file" descriptor as well as a
new flag called "FREED". The "file" will not be freed until the last
reference is released. But the FREE flag will be set when the event is
removed to prevent any more modifications to that event from happening,
even if there's still a reference to the event "file" descriptor.

[ Upstream commit c2489bb7e6be2e8cdced12c16c42fa128403ac03 ]
There is race issue when concurrently splice_read main trace_pipe and
per_cpu trace_pipes which will result in data read out being different
from what actually writen.
As suggested by Steven:
> I believe we should add a ref count to trace_pipe and the per_cpu
> trace_pipes, where if they are opened, nothing else can read it.
>
> Opening trace_pipe locks all per_cpu ref counts, if any of them are
> open, then the trace_pipe open will fail (and releases any ref counts
> it had taken).
>
> Opening a per_cpu trace_pipe will up the ref count for just that
> CPU buffer. This will allow multiple tasks to read different per_cpu
> trace_pipe files, but will prevent the main trace_pipe file from
> being opened.
But because we only need to know whether per_cpu trace_pipe is open or
not, using a cpumask instead of using ref count may be easier.
After this patch, users will find that:
- Main trace_pipe can be opened by only one user, and if it is
opened, all per_cpu trace_pipes cannot be opened;
- Per_cpu trace_pipes can be opened by multiple users, but each per_cpu
trace_pipe can only be opened by one user. And if one of them is
opened, main trace_pipe cannot be opened.

[ Upstream commit 00cf3d672a9dd409418647e9f98784c339c3ff63 ]
Allow a stacktrace from one event to be displayed by the end event of a
synthetic event. This is very useful when looking for the longest latency
of a sleep or something blocked on I/O.
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# echo 's:block_lat pid_t pid; u64 delta; unsigned long[] stack;' > dynamic_events
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs,st=stacktrace if prev_state == 1||prev_state == 2' > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
# echo 'hist:keys=prev_pid:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts,s=$st:onmax($delta).trace(block_lat,prev_pid,$delta,$s)' >> events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
The above creates a "block_lat" synthetic event that take the stacktrace of
when a task schedules out in either the interruptible or uninterruptible
states, and on a new per process max $delta (the time it was scheduled
out), will print the process id and the stacktrace.

commit 3bb06eb6e9acf7c4a3e1b5bc87aed398ff8e2253 upstream.
Currently trace_printk() can be used as soon as early_trace_init() is
called from start_kernel(). But if a crash happens, and
"ftrace_dump_on_oops" is set on the kernel command line, all you get will
be:
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 347519us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 353141us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 358684us : Unknown type 6
This is because the trace_printk() event (type 6) hasn't been registered
yet. That gets done via an early_initcall(), which may be early, but not
early enough.
Instead of registering the trace_printk() event (and other ftrace events,
which are not trace events) via an early_initcall(), have them registered at
the same time that trace_printk() can be used. This way, if there is a
crash before early_initcall(), then the trace_printk()s will actually be
useful.

commit 575b76cb885532aae13a9d979fd476bb2b156cb9 upstream.
When creating probe names, a check is done to make sure it matches basic C
standard variable naming standards. Basically, starts with alphabetic or
underline, and then the rest of the characters have alpha-numeric or
underline in them.
But system names do not have any true naming conventions, as they are
created by the TRACE_SYSTEM macro and nothing tests to see what they are.
The "xhci-hcd" trace events has a '-' in the system name. When trying to
attach a eprobe to one of these trace points, it fails because the system
name does not follow the variable naming convention because of the
hyphen, and the eprobe checks fail on this.
Allow hyphens in the system name so that eprobes can attach to the
"xhci-hcd" trace events.

Currently the tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() requires the
trace_types_lock held. But only one caller of this function actually has
that lock held before calling it, and the other just takes the lock so
that it can call it. More users of this function is needed where the lock
is not held.
Add a tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() function for the one use
case that calls it without being held, and also add a lockdep_assert to
make sure it is held when called.
Then have tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() take the lock internally, such
that callers do not need to worry about taking it.

RV is a lightweight (yet rigorous) method that complements classical
exhaustive verification techniques (such as model checking and
theorem proving) with a more practical approach to complex systems.
RV works by analyzing the trace of the system's actual execution,
comparing it against a formal specification of the system behavior.
RV can give precise information on the runtime behavior of the
monitored system while enabling the reaction for unexpected
events, avoiding, for example, the propagation of a failure on
safety-critical systems.
The development of this interface roots in the development of the
paper:
De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot; Cucinotta, Tommaso; De Oliveira, Romulo
Silva. Efficient formal verification for the Linux kernel. In:
International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods.
Springer, Cham, 2019. p. 315-332.
And:
De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot. Automata-based formal analysis
and verification of the real-time Linux kernel. PhD Thesis, 2020.
The RV interface resembles the tracing/ interface on purpose. The current
path for the RV interface is /sys/kernel/tracing/rv/.
It presents these files:
"available_monitors"
- List the available monitors, one per line.
For example:
# cat available_monitors
wip
wwnr
"enabled_monitors"
- Lists the enabled monitors, one per line;
- Writing to it enables a given monitor;
- Writing a monitor name with a '!' prefix disables it;
- Truncating the file disables all enabled monitors.
For example:
# cat enabled_monitors
# echo wip > enabled_monitors
# echo wwnr >> enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
wip
wwnr
# echo '!wip' >> enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
wwnr
# echo > enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
#
Note that more than one monitor can be enabled concurrently.
"monitoring_on"
- It is an on/off general switcher for monitoring. Note
that it does not disable enabled monitors or detach events,
but stop the per-entity monitors of monitoring the events
received from the system. It resembles the "tracing_on" switcher.
"monitors/"
Each monitor will have its one directory inside "monitors/". There
the monitor specific files will be presented.
The "monitors/" directory resembles the "events" directory on
tracefs.
For example:
# cd monitors/wip/
# ls
desc enable
# cat desc
wakeup in preemptive per-cpu testing monitor.
# cat enable
0

kernel/trace/rv/rv.c from this patch.

Code for registering triggers assumes it's possible to register more
than one trigger at a time. In fact, it's unimplemented and there
doesn't seem to be a reason to do that.
Remove the n_registered param from event_trigger_register() and fix up
callers.
Doing so simplifies the logic in event_trigger_register to the point
that it just becomes a wrapper calling event_command.reg().
It also removes the problematic call to event_command.unreg() in case
of failure. A new function, event_trigger_unregister() is also added
for callers to call themselves.
The changes to trace_events_hist.c simply allow compilation; a
separate patch follows which updates the hist triggers to work
correctly with the new changes.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the
kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a
byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task
can then enable that event like any other event, which will change
the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start
writing the event to the tracing buffer.
- Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When
set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot
up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep
the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot
up has tracing as well.
- Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type
descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum,
the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that
array.
- Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the
TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This
will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not
be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports.
- Fixes to tracing error logging.
- Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events
for mapping).

The __probe_type adds 4 bytes to every event.
One of the reasons for creating eprobes is to limit what is traced in an
event to be able to limit what is written into the ring buffer. Having
this redundant 4 bytes to every event takes away from this.
The event that is recorded can be retrieved from the event probe itself,
that is available when the trace is happening. For user space tools, it
could simply read the dynamic_event file to find the event they are for.
So there is really no reason to write this information into the ring
buffer for every event.

The event_command.parse() callback is responsible for parsing and
registering triggers. The existing command implementions for this
callback duplicate a lot of the same code, so to clean up and
consolidate those implementations, introduce a handful of helper
functions for implementors to use.
This also makes it easier for new commands to be implemented and
allows them to focus more on the customizations they provide rather
than obscuring and complicating it with boilerplate code.

In this case, the main purpose of the callback is to implement an
event trigger, so call it trigger() instead.
Also add some more documentation to event_trigger_ops describing the
callbacks a bit better.

In case trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() is called with preemption
enabled, the algorithm that defines the usage of the per cpu filter buffer
may fail if the task schedules to another CPU after determining which
buffer it will use.
Disable preemption when using the filter buffer. And because that same
buffer must be used throughout the call, keep preemption disabled until
the filter buffer is released.
This will also keep the semantics between the use case of when the filter
buffer is used, and when the ring buffer itself is used, as that case also
disables preemption until the ring buffer is released.
