Pull probes fixes from Masami Hiramatsu:
- Clean up tprobe correctly when module unload
Tracepoint probes do not set TRACEPOINT_STUB on the 'tpoint' pointer
when unloading a module, thus they show as a normal 'fprobe' instead
of 'tprobe' and never come back
- Fix leakage of tprobe module refcount
When a tprobe's target module is loaded, it gets the module's
refcount in the module notifier but forgot to put it after
registering the probe on it.
Fix it by getting the refcount only when registering tprobe.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Fix ref count of trace_array in error path of histogram file open
Tracing instances have a ref count to keep them around while files
within their directories are open. This prevents them from being
deleted while they are used.
The histogram code had some files that needed to take the ref count
and that was added, but the error paths did not decrement the ref
counts. This caused the instances from ever being removed if a
histogram file failed to open due to some error"

tracing: Correct the refcount if the hist/hist_debug file fails to open
When enabling the tracepoint at loading module, the target module
refcount is incremented by find_tracepoint_in_module(). But it is
unnecessary because the module is not unloaded while processing
module loading callbacks.
Moreover, the refcount is not decremented in that function.
To be clear the module refcount handling, move the try_module_get()
callsite to trace_fprobe_create_internal(), where it is actually
required.

When unloading module, the tprobe events are not correctly cleaned
up. Thus it becomes `fprobe-event` and never be enabled again even
if loading the same module again.
For example;
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# modprobe trace_events_sample
# echo 't:my_tprobe foo_bar' >> dynamic_events
# cat dynamic_events
t:tracepoints/my_tprobe foo_bar
# rmmod trace_events_sample
# cat dynamic_events
f:tracepoints/my_tprobe foo_bar
As you can see, the second time my_tprobe starts with 'f' instead
of 't'.
This unregisters the fprobe and tracepoint callback when module is
unloaded but marks the fprobe-event is tprobe-event.

The function event_{hist,hist_debug}_open() maintains the refcount of
'file->tr' and 'file' through tracing_open_file_tr(). However, it does
not roll back these counts on subsequent failure paths, resulting in a
refcount leak.
A very obvious case is that if the hist/hist_debug file belongs to a
specific instance, the refcount leak will prevent the deletion of that
instance, as it relies on the condition 'tr->ref == 1' within
__remove_instance().
Fix this by calling tracing_release_file_tr() on all failure paths in
event_{hist,hist_debug}_open() to correct the refcount.

Pull probe events fixes from Masami Hiramatsu:
- probe-events: Remove unused MAX_ARG_BUF_LEN macro - it is not used
- fprobe-events: Log error for exceeding the number of entry args.
Since the max number of entry args is limited, it should be checked
and rejected when the parser detects it.
- tprobe-events: Reject invalid tracepoint name

then the new event is not defined correctly in the eventfs.

The next time a hist with name is registered, it causes an u-a-f bug and
the kernel can crash.
Move the code around such that if event_trigger_register() succeeds, the
next thing called is hist_trigger_enable() which adds it to the list.
A bunch of actions is called if get_named_trigger_data() returns false.
But that doesn't need to be called after event_trigger_register(), so it
can be moved up, allowing event_trigger_register() to be called just
before hist_trigger_enable() keeping them together and allowing the
file->triggers to be properly populated.

Commit 57a7e6de9e ("tracing/fprobe: Support raw tracepoints on
future loaded modules") allows user to set a tprobe on non-exist
tracepoint but it does not check the tracepoint name is acceptable.
So it leads tprobe has a wrong character for events (e.g. with
subsystem prefix). In this case, the event is not shown in the
events directory.
Reject such invalid tracepoint name.
The tracepoint name must consist of alphabet or digit or '_'.

The root cause is that s_next() returns NULL when nothing is found.
This results in s_stop() attempting to free a NULL pointer because its

The function tracer should record the preemption level at the point when
the function is invoked. If the tracing subsystem decrement the
preemption counter it needs to correct this before feeding the data into
the trace buffer. This was broken in the commit cited below while
shifting the preempt-disabled section.
Use tracing_gen_ctx_dec() which properly subtracts one from the
preemption counter on a preemptible kernel.

When adding a new fprobe, it will update the function hash to the
functions the fprobe is attached to and register with function graph to
have it call the registered functions. The fprobe_graph_active variable
keeps track of the number of fprobes that are using function graph.
If two fprobes attach to the same function, it increments the
fprobe_graph_active for each of them. But when they are removed, the first
fprobe to be removed will see that the function it is attached to is also
used by another fprobe and it will not remove that function from
function_graph. The logic will skip decrementing the fprobe_graph_active
variable.
This causes the fprobe_graph_active variable to not go to zero when all
fprobes are removed, and in doing so it does not unregister from
function graph. As the fgraph ops hash will now be empty, and an empty
filter hash means all functions are enabled, this triggers function graph
to add a callback to the fprobe infrastructure for every function!

When the last fprobe is removed, it calls unregister_ftrace_graph() to
remove the graph_ops from function graph. The issue is when it does so, it
calls return before removing the function from its graph ops via
ftrace_set_filter_ips(). This leaves the last function lingering in the
fprobe's fgraph ops and if a probe is added it also enables that last
function (even though the callback will just drop it, it does add unneeded
overhead to make that call).

The above enabled a fprobe on kernel_clone, and then on schedule_timeout.
The content of the enabled_functions shows the functions that have a
callback attached to them. The fprobe attached to those functions
properly. Then the fprobes were cleared, and enabled_functions was empty
after that. But after adding a fprobe on kmem_cache_free, the
enabled_functions shows that the schedule_timeout was attached again. This
is because it was still left in the fprobe ops that is used to tell
function graph what functions it wants callbacks from.

Function graph uses a subops and manager ops mechanism to attach to
ftrace. The manager ops connects to ftrace and the functions it connects
to is defined by a list of subops that it manages.
The function hash that defines what the above ops attaches to limits the
functions to attach if the hash has any content. If the hash is empty, it
means to trace all functions.
The creation of the manager ops hash is done by iterating over all the
subops hashes. If any of the subops hashes is empty, it means that the
manager ops hash must trace all functions as well.
The issue is in the creation of the manager ops. When a second subops is
attached, a new hash is created by starting it as NULL and adding the
subops one at a time. But the NULL ops is mistaken as an empty hash, and
once an empty hash is found, it stops the loop of subops and just enables
all functions.

Fix this by initializing the new hash to NULL and if the hash is NULL do
not treat it as an empty hash but instead allocate by copying the content
of the first sub ops. Then on subsequent iterations, the new hash will not
be NULL, but the content of the previous subops. If that first subops
attached to all functions, then new hash may assume that the manager ops
also needs to attach to all functions.

The pages_touched field represents the number of subbuffers in the ring
buffer that have content that can be read. This is used in accounting of
"dirty_pages" and "buffer_percent" to allow the user to wait for the
buffer to be filled to a certain amount before it reads the buffer in
blocking mode.
The persistent buffer never updated this value so it was set to zero, and
this accounting would take it as it had no content. This would cause user
space to wait for content even though there's enough content in the ring
buffer that satisfies the buffer_percent.

The reason was that the code that maps the ring buffer pages to user space
has:
page = virt_to_page((void *)cpu_buffer->subbuf_ids[s]);
And uses that in:
vm_insert_pages(vma, vma->vm_start, pages, &nr_pages);
But virt_to_page() does not work with vmap()'d memory which is what the
persistent ring buffer has. It is rather trivial to allow this, but for
now just disable mmap() of instances that have their ring buffer from the
reserve_mem option.
If an mmap() is performed on a persistent buffer it will return -ENODEV
just like it would if the .mmap field wasn't defined in the
file_operations structure.

The meta data for a mapped ring buffer contains an array of indexes of all
the subbuffers. The first entry is the reader page, and the rest of the
entries lay out the order of the subbuffers in how the ring buffer link
list is to be created.
The validator currently makes sure that all the entries are within the
range of 0 and nr_subbufs. But it does not check if there are any
duplicates.
While working on the ring buffer, I corrupted this array, where I added
duplicates. The validator did not catch it and created the ring buffer
link list on top of it. Luckily, the corruption was only that the reader
page was also in the writer path and only presented corrupted data but did
not crash the kernel. But if there were duplicates in the writer side,
then it could corrupt the ring buffer link list and cause a crash.
Create a bitmask array with the size of the number of subbuffers. Then
clear it. When walking through the subbuf array checking to see if the
entries are within the range, test if its bit is already set in the
subbuf_mask. If it is, then there is duplicates and fail the validation.
If not, set the corresponding bit and continue.

Currently if __tracing_resize_ring_buffer() returns an error, the
tracing_resize_ringbuffer() returns -ENOMEM. But it may not be a memory
issue that caused the function to fail. If the ring buffer is memory
mapped, then the resizing of the ring buffer will be disabled. But if the
user tries to resize the buffer, it will get an -ENOMEM returned, which is
confusing because there is plenty of memory. The actual error returned was
-EBUSY, which would make much more sense to the user.

The code was restructured where the function graph notrace code, that
would not trace a function and all its children is done by setting a
NOTRACE flag when the function that is not to be traced is hit.
There's a TRACE_GRAPH_NOTRACE_BIT which defines the bit in the flags and a
TRACE_GRAPH_NOTRACE which is the mask with that bit set. But the
restructuring used TRACE_GRAPH_NOTRACE_BIT when it should have used
TRACE_GRAPH_NOTRACE.
For example:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo set_track_prepare stack_trace_save > set_graph_notrace
# echo function_graph > current_tracer
# cat trace
[..]
0) | __slab_free() {
0) | free_to_partial_list() {
0) | arch_stack_walk() {
0) | __unwind_start() {
0) 0.501 us | get_stack_info();
Where a non filter trace looks like:
# echo > set_graph_notrace
# cat trace
0) | free_to_partial_list() {
0) | set_track_prepare() {
0) | stack_trace_save() {
0) | arch_stack_walk() {
0) | __unwind_start() {
Where the filter should look like:
# cat trace
0) | free_to_partial_list() {
0) | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave() {
0) 0.350 us | preempt_count_add();
0) 0.351 us | do_raw_spin_lock();
0) 2.440 us | }

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.
Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command:
