The patch ec5ce09875: "tracing: Allow whitespace to surround hist
trigger filter" from Jan 15, 2018, leads to the following Smatch
static checker warning:
kernel/trace/trace_events_hist.c:6199 event_hist_trigger_parse()
warn: 'p' can't be NULL.
Since p is always checked for a NULL value at the top of loop and
nothing in the rest of the loop will set it to NULL, the warning
is correct and might as well be 1 to silence the warning.

The recent rename of event_hist_trigger_parse() caused smatch
re-evaluation of trace_events_hist.c and as a result an old warning
was found:
kernel/trace/trace_events_hist.c:6174 event_hist_trigger_parse()
error: we previously assumed 'glob' could be null (see line 6166)
glob should never be null (and apparently smatch can also figure that
out and skip the warning when using the cross-function DB (but which
can't be used with a 0day build as it takes too much time to
generate)).
Nonetheless for clarity, remove the test but add a WARN_ON() in case
the code ever changes.

First S390 complained that the sorting of the mcount sections at build
time caused the kernel to crash on their architecture. Now PowerPC is
complaining about it too. And also ARM64 appears to be having issues.
It may be necessary to also update the relocation table for the values
in the mcount table. Not only do we have to sort the table, but also
update the relocations that may be applied to the items in the table.
If the system is not relocatable, then it is fine to sort, but if it is,
some architectures may have issues (although x86 does not as it shifts all
addresses the same).
Add a HAVE_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT that an architecture can set to say it is
safe to do the sorting at build time.
Also update the config to compile in build time sorting in the sorttable
code in scripts/ to depend on CONFIG_BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT.

Pull ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Fix s390 breakage from sorting mcount tables.
The latest merge of the tracing tree sorts the mcount table at build
time. But s390 appears to do things differently (like always) and
replaces the sorted table back to the original unsorted one. As the
ftrace algorithm depends on it being sorted, bad things happen when it
is not, and s390 experienced those bad things.
Add a new config to tell the boot if the mcount table is sorted or
not, and allow s390 to opt out of it"
* tag 'trace-v5.17-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
ftrace: Fix assuming build time sort works for s390
To speed up the boot process, as mcount_loc needs to be sorted for ftrace
to work properly, sorting it at build time is more efficient than boot up
and can save milliseconds of time. Unfortunately, this change broke s390
as it will modify the mcount_loc location after the sorting takes place
and will put back the unsorted locations. Since the sorting is skipped at
boot up if it is believed that it was sorted at run time, ftrace can crash
as its algorithms are dependent on the list being sorted.
Add a new config BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT that is set when
BUILDTIME_TABLE_SORT but not if S390 is set. Use this config to determine
if sorting should take place at boot up.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"New:
- The Real Time Linux Analysis (RTLA) tool is added to the tools
directory.
- Can safely filter on user space pointers with: field.ustring ~
"match-string"
- eprobes can now be filtered like any other event.
- trace_marker(_raw) now uses stream_open() to allow multiple threads
to safely write to it. Note, this could possibly break existing
user space, but we will not know until we hear about it, and then
can revert the change if need be.
- New field in events to display when bottom halfs are disabled.
- Sorting of the ftrace functions are now done at compile time
instead of at bootup.
Infrastructure changes to support future efforts:
- Added __rel_loc type for trace events. Similar to __data_loc but
the offset to the dynamic data is based off of the location of the
descriptor and not the beginning of the event. Needed for user
defined events.
- Some simplification of event trigger code.
- Make synthetic events process its callback better to not hinder
other event callbacks that are registered. Needed for user defined
events.
And other small fixes and cleanups"

Since referencing user space pointers is special, if the user wants to
filter on a field that is a pointer to user space, then they need to
specify it.
Add a ".ustring" attribute to the field name for filters to state that the
field is pointing to user space such that the kernel can take the
appropriate action to read that pointer.

If start_per_cpu_kthreads() called from osnoise_workload_start() returns
error, event hooks are left in broken state: unhook_irq_events() called
but unhook_thread_events() and unhook_softirq_events() not called, and
trace_osnoise_callback_enabled flag not cleared.
On the next tracer enable, hooks get not installed due to
trace_osnoise_callback_enabled flag.
And on the further tracer disable an attempt to remove non-installed
hooks happened, hitting a WARN_ON_ONCE() in tracepoint_remove_func().
Fix the error path by adding the missing part of cleanup.
While at this, introduce osnoise_unhook_events() to avoid code
duplication between this error path and normal tracer disable.

Pingfan reported that the following causes a fault:
echo "filename ~ \"cpu\"" > events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/filter
echo 1 > events/syscalls/sys_enter_at/enable
The reason is that trace event filter treats the user space pointer
defined by "filename" as a normal pointer to compare against the "cpu"
string. The following bug happened:

The above happened because the kernel tried to access user space directly
and triggered a "supervisor read access in kernel mode" fault. Worse yet,
the memory could not even be loaded yet, and a SEGFAULT could happen as
well. This could be true for kernel space accessing as well.
To be even more robust, test both kernel and user space strings. If the
string fails to read, then simply have the filter fail.
Note, TASK_SIZE is used to determine if the pointer is user or kernel space
and the appropriate strncpy_from_kernel/user_nofault() function is used to
copy the memory. For some architectures, the compare to TASK_SIZE may always
pick user space or kernel space. If it gets it wrong, the only thing is that
the filter will fail to match. In the future, this needs to be fixed to have
the event denote which should be used. But failing a filter is much better
than panicing the machine, and that can be solved later.

Disabling only bottom halves via local_bh_disable() disables also
preemption but this remains invisible to tracing. On a CONFIG_PREEMPT
kernel one might wonder why there is no scheduling happening despite the
N flag in the trace. The reason might be the a rcu_read_lock_bh()
section.
Add a 'b' to the tracing output if in task context with disabled bottom
halves.
