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

tracing: Allow backup to save persistent ring buffer before it starts
When the persistent ring buffer was first introduced, it did not make sense to start tracing for it on the kernel command line. That's because if there was a crash, the start of events would invalidate the events from the previous boot that had the crash. But now that there's a "backup" instance that can take a snapshot of the persistent ring buffer when boot starts, it is possible to have the persistent ring buffer start events at boot up and not lose the old events. Update the code where the boot events start after all boot time instances are created. This will allow the backup instance to copy the persistent ring buffer from the previous boot, and allow the persistent ring buffer to start tracing new events for the current boot. reserve_mem=100M:12M:trace trace_instance=boot_mapped^@trace,sched trace_instance=backup=boot_mapped The above will create a boot_mapped persistent ring buffer and enabled the scheduler events. If there's a crash, a "backup" instance will be created holding the events of the persistent ring buffer from the previous boot, while the persistent ring buffer will once again start tracing scheduler events of the current boot. Now the user doesn't have to remember to start the persistent ring buffer. It will always have the events started at each boot.

tracing: Remove the backup instance automatically after read
Since the backup instance is readonly, after reading all data via pipe, no data is left on the instance. Thus it can be removed safely after closing all files.

tracing: Make the backup instance non-reusable
Since there is no reason to reuse the backup instance, make it readonly (but erasable). Note that only backup instances are readonly, because other trace instances will be empty unless it is writable. Only backup instances have copy entries from the original. With this change, most of the trace control files are removed from the backup instance, including eventfs enable/filter etc. # find /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/backup/events/ | wc -l 4093 # find /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_map/events/ | wc -l 9573 Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/177502546939.1311542.1826814401724828930.stgit@mhiramat.tok.corp.google.com Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org> |

tracing: Remove duplicate latency_fsnotify() stub
When the SNAPSHOT is defined but FSNOTIFY is not the latency_fsnotify()
function is turned into a static inline stub. But this stub was defined in
both trace.h and trace_snapshot.c causing a error in build when
CONFIG_SNAPSHOT is defined but FSNOTIFY is not. The stub is not needed in
trace_snapshot.c as it will be defined in trace.h, remove it from the C
file.

tracing: Append repeated boot-time tracing parameters
Some tracing boot parameters already accept delimited value lists, but their __setup() handlers keep only the last instance seen at boot. Make repeated instances append to the same boot-time buffer in the format each parser already consumes. Use a shared trace_append_boot_param() helper for the ftrace filters, trace_options, and kprobe_event boot parameters. This also lets Bootconfig array values work naturally when they expand to repeated param=value entries. Before this change, only the last instance from each repeated parameter survived boot.

tracing: Clean up access to trace_event_file from a file pointer
The tracing code provides two functions event_file_file() and event_file_data() to obtain a trace_event_file pointer from a file struct. The primary method to use is event_file_file(), as it checks for the EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED flag to determine whether the event is being removed. The second function event_file_data() is an optimization for retrieving the same data when the event_mutex is still held. In the past, when removing an event directory in remove_event_file_dir(), the code set i_private to NULL for all event files and readers were expected to check for this state to recognize that the event is being removed. In the case of event_id_read(), the value was read using event_file_data() without acquiring the event_mutex. This required event_file_data() to use READ_ONCE() when retrieving the i_private data. With the introduction of eventfs, i_private is assigned when an eventfs inode is allocated and remains set throughout its lifetime. Remove the now unnecessary READ_ONCE() access to i_private in both event_file_file() and event_file_data(). Inline the access to i_private in remove_event_file_dir(), which allows event_file_data() to handle i_private solely as a trace_event_file pointer. Add a check in event_file_data() to ensure that the event_mutex is held and that file->flags doesn't have the EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED flag set. Finally, move event_file_data() immediately after event_file_code() since the latter provides a comment explaining how both functions should be used together.

tracing: Introduce trace remotes
A trace remote relies on ring-buffer remotes to read and control compatible tracing buffers, written by entity such as firmware or hypervisor. Add a Tracefs directory remotes/ that contains all instances of trace remotes. Each instance follows the same hierarchy as any other to ease the support by existing user-space tools. This currently does not provide any event support, which will come later.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"User visible changes:
- Add an entry into MAINTAINERS file for RUST versions of code
There's now RUST code for tracing and static branches. To
differentiate that code from the C code, add entries in for the
RUST version (with "[RUST]" around it) so that the right
maintainers get notified on changes.
- New bitmask-list option added to tracefs
When this is set, bitmasks in trace event are not displayed as hex
numbers, but instead as lists: e.g. 0-5,7,9 instead of 0000015f
- New show_event_filters file in tracefs
Instead of having to search all events/*/*/filter for any active
filters enabled in the trace instance, the file show_event_filters
will list them so that there's only one file that needs to be
examined to see if any filters are active.
- New show_event_triggers file in tracefs
Instead of having to search all events/*/*/trigger for any active
triggers enabled in the trace instance, the file
show_event_triggers will list them so that there's only one file
that needs to be examined to see if any triggers are active.
- Have traceoff_on_warning disable trace pintk buffer too
Recently recording of trace_printk() could go to other trace
instances instead of the top level instance. But if
traceoff_on_warning triggers, it doesn't stop the buffer with
trace_printk() and that data can easily be lost by being
overwritten. Have traceoff_on_warning also disable the instance
that has trace_printk() being written to it.
- Update the hist_debug file to show what function the field uses
When CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS_DEBUG is enabled, a hist_debug file
exists for every event. This displays the internal data of any
histogram enabled for that event. But it is lacking the function
that is called to process one of its fields. This is very useful
information that was missing when debugging histograms.
- Up the histogram stack size from 16 to 31
Stack traces can be used as keys for event histograms. Currently
the size of the stack that is stored is limited to just 16 entries.
But the storage space in the histogram is 256 bytes, meaning that
it can store up to 31 entries (plus one for the count of entries).
Instead of letting that space go to waste, up the limit from 16 to
31. This makes the keys much more useful.
- Fix permissions of per CPU file buffer_size_kb
The per CPU file of buffer_size_kb was incorrectly set to read only
in a previous cleanup. It should be writable.
- Reset "last_boot_info" if the persistent buffer is cleared
The last_boot_info shows address information of a persistent ring
buffer if it contains data from a previous boot. It is cleared when
recording starts again, but it is not cleared when the buffer is
reset. The data is useless after a reset so clear it on reset too.
Internal changes:
- A change was made to allow tracepoint callbacks to have preemption
enabled, and instead be protected by SRCU. This required some
updates to the callbacks for perf and BPF.
perf needed to disable preemption directly in its callback because
it expects preemption disabled in the later code.
BPF needed to disable migration, as its code expects to run
completely on the same CPU.
- Have irq_work wake up other CPU if current CPU is "isolated"
When there's a waiter waiting on ring buffer data and a new event
happens, an irq work is triggered to wake up that waiter. This is
noisy on isolated CPUs (running NO_HZ_FULL). Trigger an IPI to a
house keeping CPU instead.
- Use proper free of trigger_data instead of open coding it in.
- Remove redundant call of event_trigger_reset_filter()
It was called immediately in a function that was called right after
it.
- Workqueue cleanups
- Report errors if tracing_update_buffers() were to fail.
- Make the enum update workqueue generic for other parts of tracing
On boot up, a work queue is created to convert enum names into
their numbers in the trace event format files. This work queue can
also be used for other aspects of tracing that takes some time and
shouldn't be called by the init call code.
The blk_trace initialization takes a bit of time. Have the
initialization code moved to the new tracing generic work queue
function.
- Skip kprobe boot event creation call if there's no kprobes defined
on cmdline
The kprobe initialization to set up kprobes if they are defined on
the cmdline requires taking the event_mutex lock. This can be held
by other tracing code doing initialization for a long time. Since
kprobes added to the kernel command line need to be setup
immediately, as they may be tracing early initialization code, they
cannot be postponed in a work queue and must be setup in the
initcall code.
If there's no kprobe on the kernel cmdline, there's no reason to
take the mutex and slow down the boot up code waiting to get the
lock only to find out there's nothing to do. Simply exit out early
if there's no kprobes on the kernel cmdline.
If there are kprobes on the cmdline, then someone cares more about
tracing over the speed of boot up.
- Clean up the trigger code a bit
- Move code out of trace.c and into their own files
trace.c is now over 11,000 lines of code and has become more
difficult to maintain. Start splitting it up so that related code
is in their own files.
Move all the trace_printk() related code into trace_printk.c.
Move the __always_inline stack functions into trace.h.
Move the pid filtering code into a new trace_pid.c file.
- Better define the max latency and snapshot code
The latency tracers have a "max latency" buffer that is a copy of
the main buffer and gets swapped with it when a new high latency is
detected. This keeps the trace up to the highest latency around
where this max_latency buffer is never written to. It is only used
to save the last max latency trace.
A while ago a snapshot feature was added to tracefs to allow user
space to perform the same logic. It could also enable events to
trigger a "snapshot" if one of their fields hit a new high. This
was built on top of the latency max_latency buffer logic.
Because snapshots came later, they were dependent on the latency
tracers to be enabled. In reality, the latency tracers depend on
the snapshot code and not the other way around. It was just that
they came first.
Restructure the code and the kconfigs to have the latency tracers
depend on snapshot code instead. This actually simplifies the logic
a bit and allows to disable more when the latency tracers are not
defined and the snapshot code is.
- Fix a "false sharing" in the hwlat tracer code
The loop to search for latency in hardware was using a variable
that could be changed by user space for each sample. If the user
change this variable, it could cause a bus contention, and reading
that variable can show up as a large latency in the trace causing a
false positive. Read this variable at the start of the sample with
a READ_ONCE() into a local variable and keep the code from sharing
cache lines with readers.
- Fix function graph tracer static branch optimization code
When only one tracer is defined for function graph tracing, it uses
a static branch to call that tracer directly. When another tracer
is added, it goes into loop logic to call all the registered
callbacks.
The code was incorrect when going back to one tracer and never
re-enabled the static branch again to do the optimization code.
- And other small fixes and cleanups"

tracing: Better separate SNAPSHOT and MAX_TRACE options
The latency tracers (scheduler, irqsoff, etc) were created when tracing was first added. These tracers required a "snapshot" buffer that was the same size as the ring buffer being written to. When a new max latency was hit, the main ring buffer would swap with the snapshot buffer so that the trace leading up to the latency would be saved in the snapshot buffer (The snapshot buffer is never written to directly and the data within it can be viewed without fear of being overwritten). Later, a new feature was added to allow snapshots to be taken by user space or even event triggers. This created a "snapshot" file that allowed users to trigger a snapshot from user space to save the current trace. The config for this new feature (CONFIG_TRACER_SNAPSHOT) would select the latency tracer config (CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_LATENCY) as it would need all the functionality from it as it already existed. But this was incorrect. As the snapshot feature is really what the latency tracers need and not the other way around. Have CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE select CONFIG_TRACER_SNAPSHOT where the tracers that needs the max latency buffer selects the TRACE_MAX_TRACE which will then select TRACER_SNAPSHOT. Also, go through trace.c and trace.h and make the code that only needs the TRACER_MAX_TRACE protected by that and the code that always requires the snapshot to be protected by TRACER_SNAPSHOT.

tracing: Rename trace_array field max_buffer to snapshot_buffer
When tracing was first added, there were latency tracers that would take a snapshot of the current trace when a new max latency was hit. This snapshot buffer was called "max_buffer". Since then, a snapshot feature was added that allowed user space or event triggers to trigger a snapshot of the current buffer using the same max_buffer of the trace_array. As this snapshot buffer now has a more generic use case, calling it "max_buffer" is confusing. Rename it to snapshot_buffer.

tracing: Make printk_trace global for tracing system
The printk_trace is used to determine which trace_array trace_printk() writes to. By making it a global variable among the tracing subsystem it will allow the trace_printk functions to be moved out of trace.c and still have direct access to that variable.

tracing: Move ftrace_trace_stack() out of trace.c and into trace.h
The file trace.c has become a catchall for most things tracing. Start making it smaller by breaking out various aspects into their own files. Make ftrace_trace_stack() into a static inline that tests if stack tracing is enabled and if so to call __ftrace_trace_stack() to do the stack trace. This keeps the test inlined in the fast paths and only does the function call if stack tracing is enabled.

The file trace.c has become a catchall for most things tracing. Start making it smaller by breaking out various aspects into their own files. Move the __always_inline functions __trace_buffer_lock_reserve(), __trace_buffer_unlock_commit() and trace_event_setup() into trace.h. The trace.c file will be split up and these functions will be used in more than one of these files. As they are already __always_inline they can easily be moved into the trace.h header file.

tracing: Make tracing_disabled global for tracing system
The tracing_disabled variable is set to one on boot up to prevent some parts of tracing to access the tracing infrastructure before it is set up. It also can be set after boot if an anomaly is discovered. It is currently a static variable in trace.c and can be accessed via a function call trace_is_disabled(). There's really no reason to use a function call as the tracing subsystem should be able to access it directly. By making the variable accessed directly, code can be moved out of trace.c without adding overhead of a function call to see if tracing is disabled or not. Make tracing_disabled global and remove the tracing_is_disabled() helper function. Also add some "unlikely()"s around tracing_disabled where it's checked in hot paths.

tracing: Rename eval_map_wq and allow other parts of tracing use it
The eval_map_work_func() function, though queued in eval_map_wq, holds the trace_event_sem read-write lock for a long time during kernel boot. This causes blocking issues for other functions. Rename eval_map_wq to trace_init_wq and make it global, thereby allowing other parts of tracing to schedule work on this queue asynchronously and avoiding blockage of the main boot thread.

tracing: Fix ftrace event field alignments
The fields of ftrace specific events (events used to save ftrace internal
events like function traces and trace_printk) are generated similarly to
how normal trace event fields are generated. That is, the fields are added
to a trace_events_fields array that saves the name, offset, size,
alignment and signness of the field. It is used to produce the output in
the format file in tracefs so that tooling knows how to parse the binary
data of the trace events.
The issue is that some of the ftrace event structures are packed. The
function graph exit event structures are one of them. The 64 bit calltime
and rettime fields end up 4 byte aligned, but the algorithm to show to
userspace shows them as 8 byte aligned.
The macros that create the ftrace events has one for embedded structure
fields. There's two macros for theses fields:
__field_desc() and __field_packed()
The difference of the latter macro is that it treats the field as packed.
Rename that field to __field_desc_packed() and create replace the
__field_packed() to be a normal field that is packed and have the calltime
and rettime use those.
This showed up on 32bit architectures for function graph time fields. It
had:
~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/funcgraph_exit/format
[..]
field:unsigned long func; offset:8; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned int depth; offset:12; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned int overrun; offset:16; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned long long calltime; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
field:unsigned long long rettime; offset:32; size:8; signed:0;
Notice that overrun is at offset 16 with size 4, where in the structure
calltime is at offset 20 (16 + 4), but it shows the offset at 24. That's
because it used the alignment of unsigned long long when used as a
declaration and not as a member of a structure where it would be aligned
by word size (in this case 4).
By using the proper structure alignment, the format has it at the correct
offset:
~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/funcgraph_exit/format
[..]
field:unsigned long func; offset:8; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned int depth; offset:12; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned int overrun; offset:16; size:4; signed:0;
field:unsigned long long calltime; offset:20; size:8; signed:0;
field:unsigned long long rettime; offset:28; size:8; signed:0;
