4f7969bcd6 tracing: Have the user copy of synthetic event address use correct context
A synthetic event is created by the synthetic event interface that can
read both user or kernel address memory. In reality, it reads any
arbitrary memory location from within the kernel. If the address space is
in USER (where CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE is set) then
it uses strncpy_from_user_nofault() to copy strings otherwise it uses
strncpy_from_kernel_nofault().

But since both functions use the same variable there's no annotation to
what that variable is (ie. __user). This makes sparse complain.

Quiet sparse by typecasting the strncpy_from_user_nofault() variable to
a __user pointer.

bb32500fb9 tracing: Have trace_event_file have ref counters
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!

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000028
 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode

 CPU: 6 PID: 877 Comm: bash Not tainted 6.5.0-rc4-test-00008-g2c6b6b1029d4-dirty #186
 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.2-debian-1.16.2-1 04/01/2014
 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.

dcc4e5728e seq_buf: Introduce DECLARE_SEQ_BUF and seq_buf_str()
Solve two ergonomic issues with struct seq_buf;

1) Too much boilerplate is required to initialize:

	struct seq_buf s;
	char buf[32];

	seq_buf_init(s, buf, sizeof(buf));

Instead, we can build this directly on the stack. Provide
DECLARE_SEQ_BUF() macro to do this:

	DECLARE_SEQ_BUF(s, 32);

2) %NUL termination is fragile and requires 2 steps to get a valid
   C String (and is a layering violation exposing the "internals" of
   seq_buf):

	seq_buf_terminate(s);
	do_something(s->buffer);

Instead, we can just return s->buffer directly after terminating it in
the refactored seq_buf_terminate(), now known as seq_buf_str():

	do_something(seq_buf_str(s));

d0ed46b603 tracing: Move readpos from seq_buf to trace_seq
To make seq_buf more lightweight as a string buf, move the readpos member
from seq_buf to its container, trace_seq.  That puts the responsibility
of maintaining the readpos entirely in the tracing code.  If some future
users want to package up the readpos with a seq_buf, we can define a
new struct then.

2819f23ac1 eventfs: Use eventfs_remove_events_dir()
The update to removing the eventfs_file changed the way the events top
level directory was handled. Instead of returning a dentry, it now returns
the eventfs_inode. In this changed, the removing of the events top level
directory is not much different than removing any of the other
directories. Because of this, the removal just called eventfs_remove_dir()
instead of eventfs_remove_events_dir().

Although eventfs_remove_dir() does the clean up, it misses out on the
dget() of the ei->dentry done in eventfs_create_events_dir(). It makes
more sense to match eventfs_create_events_dir() with a specific function
eventfs_remove_events_dir() and this specific function can then perform
the dput() to the dentry that had the dget() when it was created.

5790b1fb3d eventfs: Remove eventfs_file and just use eventfs_inode
Instead of having a descriptor for every file represented in the eventfs
directory, only have the directory itself represented. Change the API to
send in a list of entries that represent all the files in the directory
(but not other directories). The entry list contains a name and a callback
function that will be used to create the files when they are accessed.

struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_events_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent,
						const struct eventfs_entry *entries,
						int size, void *data);

is used for the top level eventfs directory, and returns an eventfs_inode
that will be used by:

struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct eventfs_inode *parent,
					 const struct eventfs_entry *entries,
					 int size, void *data);

where both of the above take an array of struct eventfs_entry entries for
every file that is in the directory.

The entries are defined by:

typedef int (*eventfs_callback)(const char *name, umode_t *mode, void **data,
				const struct file_operations **fops);

struct eventfs_entry {
	const char			*name;
	eventfs_callback		callback;
};

Where the name is the name of the file and the callback gets called when
the file is being created. The callback passes in the name (in case the
same callback is used for multiple files), a pointer to the mode, data and
fops. The data will be pointing to the data that was passed in
eventfs_create_dir() or eventfs_create_events_dir() but may be overridden
to point to something else, as it will be used to point to the
inode->i_private that is created. The information passed back from the
callback is used to create the dentry/inode.

If the callback fills the data and the file should be created, it must
return a positive number. On zero or negative, the file is ignored.

This logic may also be used as a prototype to convert entire pseudo file
systems into just-in-time allocation.

The "show_events_dentry" file has been updated to show the directories,
and any files they have.

With just the eventfs_file allocations:

5dbd04eddb tracing/user_events: Allow events to persist for perfmon_capable users
There are several scenarios that have come up where having a user_event
persist even if the process that registered it exits. The main one is
having a daemon create events on bootup that shouldn't get deleted if
the daemon has to exit or reload. Another is within OpenTelemetry
exporters, they wish to potentially check if a user_event exists on the
system to determine if exporting the data out should occur. The
user_event in this case must exist even in the absence of the owning
process running (such as the above daemon case).

Expose the previously internal flag USER_EVENT_REG_PERSIST to user
processes. Upon register or delete of events with this flag, ensure the
user is perfmon_capable to prevent random user processes with access to
tracefs from creating events that persist after exit.

a1f157c7a3 tracing: Expand all ring buffers individually
The ring buffer of global_trace is set to the minimum size in
order to save memory on boot up and then it will be expand when
some trace feature enabled.

However currently operations under an instance can also cause
global_trace ring buffer being expanded, and the expanded memory
would be wasted if global_trace then not being used.

See following case, we enable 'sched_switch' event in instance 'A', then
ring buffer of global_trace is unexpectedly expanded to be 1410KB, also
the '(expanded: 1408)' from 'buffer_size_kb' of instance is confusing.

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
  # mkdir instances/A
  # cat buffer_size_kb
  7 (expanded: 1408)
  # cat instances/A/buffer_size_kb
  1410 (expanded: 1408)
  # echo sched:sched_switch > instances/A/set_event
  # cat buffer_size_kb
  1410
  # cat instances/A/buffer_size_kb
  1410

To fix it, we can:
  - Make 'ring_buffer_expanded' as a member of 'struct trace_array';
  - Make 'ring_buffer_expanded' of instance is defaultly true,
    global_trace is defaultly false;
  - In order not to expose 'global_trace' outside of file
    'kernel/trace/trace.c', introduce trace_set_ring_buffer_expanded()
    to set 'ring_buffer_expanded' as 'true';
  - Pass the expected trace_array to tracing_update_buffers().

 - Fix premature wake ups of polling processes in the tracing ring

   the polling's percentage to the "shortest_full" list to tell the

 - For eventfs dir lookups on dynamic events, an event system's only
   event could be removed, leaving its dentry with no children. This is
   totally legitimate. But in eventfs_release() it must not access the

2de9ee9405 tracing/user_events: Align set_bit() address for all archs
All architectures should use a long aligned address passed to set_bit().
User processes can pass either a 32-bit or 64-bit sized value to be
updated when tracing is enabled when on a 64-bit kernel. Both cases are
ensured to be naturally aligned, however, that is not enough. The
address must be long aligned without affecting checks on the value
within the user process which require different adjustments for the bit
for little and big endian CPUs.

Add a compat flag to user_event_enabler that indicates when a 32-bit
value is being used on a 64-bit kernel. Long align addresses and correct
the bit to be used by set_bit() to account for this alignment. Ensure
compat flags are copied during forks and used during deletion clears.

23cce5f254 tracing: relax trace_event_eval_update() execution with cond_resched()
When kernel is compiled without preemption, the eval_map_work_func()
(which calls trace_event_eval_update()) will not be preempted up to its
complete execution. This can actually cause a problem since if another
CPU call stop_machine(), the call will have to wait for the
eval_map_work_func() function to finish executing in the workqueue
before being able to be scheduled. This problem was observe on a SMP
system at boot time, when the CPU calling the initcalls executed
clocksource_done_booting() which in the end calls stop_machine(). We
observed a 1 second delay because one CPU was executing
eval_map_work_func() and was not preempted by the stop_machine() task.

Adding a call to cond_resched() in trace_event_eval_update() allows
other tasks to be executed and thus continue working asynchronously
like before without blocking any pending task at boot time.

1e0cb399c7 ring-buffer: Update "shortest_full" in polling
It was discovered that the ring buffer polling was incorrectly stating
that read would not block, but that's because polling did not take into
account that reads will block if the "buffer-percent" was set. Instead,
the ring buffer polling would say reads would not block if there was any
data in the ring buffer. This was incorrect behavior from a user space
point of view. This was fixed by commit 42fb0a1e84 by having the polling
code check if the ring buffer had more data than what the user specified
"buffer percent" had.

The problem now is that the polling code did not register itself to the
writer that it wanted to wait for a specific "full" value of the ring
buffer. The result was that the writer would wake the polling waiter
whenever there was a new event. The polling waiter would then wake up, see
that there's not enough data in the ring buffer to notify user space and
then go back to sleep. The next event would wake it up again.

Before the polling fix was added, the code would wake up around 100 times
for a hackbench 30 benchmark. After the "fix", due to the constant waking
of the writer, it would wake up over 11,0000 times! It would never leave
the kernel, so the user space behavior was still "correct", but this
definitely is not the desired effect.

To fix this, have the polling code add what it's waiting for to the
"shortest_full" variable, to tell the writer not to wake it up if the
buffer is not as full as it expects to be.

Note, after this fix, it appears that the waiter is now woken up around 2x
the times it was before (~200). This is a tremendous improvement from the
11,000 times, but I will need to spend some time to see why polling is
more aggressive in its wakeups than the read blocking code.

e2a8f20dd8 Crash: add lock to serialize crash hotplug handling
Eric reported that handling corresponding crash hotplug event can be
failed easily when many memory hotplug event are notified in a short
period.  They failed because failing to take __kexec_lock.

=======

The memory hotplug events are notified very quickly and very many, while
the handling of crash hotplug is much slower relatively.  So the atomic
variable __kexec_lock and kexec_trylock() can't guarantee the
serialization of crash hotplug handling.

Here, add a new mutex lock __crash_hotplug_lock to serialize crash hotplug
handling specifically.  This doesn't impact the usage of __kexec_lock.

fc09027786 sched/rt: Fix live lock between select_fallback_rq() and RT push
During RCU-boost testing with the TREE03 rcutorture config, I found that
after a few hours, the machine locks up.

On tracing, I found that there is a live lock happening between 2 CPUs.
One CPU has an RT task running, while another CPU is being offlined
which also has an RT task running.  During this offlining, all threads
are migrated. The migration thread is repeatedly scheduled to migrate
actively running tasks on the CPU being offlined. This results in a live
lock because select_fallback_rq() keeps picking the CPU that an RT task
is already running on only to get pushed back to the CPU being offlined.

It is anyway pointless to pick CPUs for pushing tasks to if they are
being offlined only to get migrated away to somewhere else. This could
also add unwanted latency to this task.

Fix these issues by not selecting CPUs in RT if they are not 'active'
for scheduling, using the cpu_active_mask. Other parts in core.c already
use cpu_active_mask to prevent tasks from being put on CPUs going
offline.

With this fix I ran the tests for days and could not reproduce the
hang. Without the patch, I hit it in a few hours.

2d5780bbef swiotlb: fix the check whether a device has used software IO TLB
When CONFIG_SWIOTLB_DYNAMIC=y, devices which do not use the software IO TLB
can avoid swiotlb lookup. A flag is added by commit 1395706a14 ("swiotlb:
search the software IO TLB only if the device makes use of it"), the flag
is correctly set, but it is then never checked. Add the actual check here.

Note that this code is an alternative to the default pool check, not an
additional check, because:

1. swiotlb_find_pool() also searches the default pool;
2. if dma_uses_io_tlb is false, the default swiotlb pool is not used.

Tested in a KVM guest against a QEMU RAM-backed SATA disk over virtio and
*not* using software IO TLB, this patch increases IOPS by approx 2% for
4-way parallel I/O.

The write memory barrier in swiotlb_dyn_alloc() is not needed, because a
newly allocated pool must always be observed by swiotlb_find_slots() before
an address from that pool is passed to is_swiotlb_buffer().

Correctness was verified using the following litmus test:

C swiotlb-new-pool

(*
 * Result: Never
 *
 * Check that a newly allocated pool is always visible when the
 *  corresponding swiotlb buffer is visible.
 *)

{
	mem_pools = default;
}

P0(int **mem_pools, int *pool)
{
	/* add_mem_pool() */
	WRITE_ONCE(*pool, 999);
	rcu_assign_pointer(*mem_pools, pool);
}

P1(int **mem_pools, int *flag, int *buf)
{
	/* swiotlb_find_slots() */
	int *r0;
	int r1;

	rcu_read_lock();
	r0 = READ_ONCE(*mem_pools);
	r1 = READ_ONCE(*r0);
	rcu_read_unlock();

	if (r1) {
		WRITE_ONCE(*flag, 1);
		smp_mb();
	}

	/* device driver (presumed) */
	WRITE_ONCE(*buf, r1);
}

P2(int **mem_pools, int *flag, int *buf)

 - Fix the "bytes" output of the per_cpu stat file

   The tracefs/per_cpu/cpu*/stats "bytes" was giving bogus values as the
   accounting was not accurate. It is suppose to show how many used
   bytes are still in the ring buffer, but even when the ring buffer was
   empty it would still show there were bytes used.

 - Fix a bug in eventfs where reading a dynamic event directory (open)
   and then creating a dynamic event that goes into that diretory screws
   up the accounting.

   On close, the newly created event dentry will get a "dput" without
   ever having a "dget" done for it. The fix is to allocate an array on
   dir open to save what dentries were actually "dget" on, and what ones
   to "dput" on close.
