Chenghao DuanandHuacai Chen bb85d206be samples/ftrace: Adjust LoongArch register restore order in direct calls
Ensure that in the ftrace direct call logic, the CPU register state
(with ra = parent return address) is restored to the correct state after
the execution of the custom trampoline function and before returning to
the traced function. Additionally, guarantee the correctness of the jump
logic for jr t0 (traced function address).

Steven Rostedt 1b0c192c92 tracing: samples: Initialize trace_array_printk() with the correct function
When using trace_array_printk() on a created instance, the correct
function to use to initialize it is:

  trace_array_init_printk()

Not

  trace_printk_init_buffer()

The former is a proper function to use, the latter is for initializing
trace_printk() and causes the NOTICE banner to be displayed.

Steven Rostedt (Google) d23569979c tracing: Allow creating instances with specified system events
A trace instance may only need to enable specific events. As the eventfs
directory of an instance currently creates all events which adds overhead,
allow internal instances to be created with just the events in systems
that they care about. This currently only deals with systems and not
individual events, but this should bring down the overhead of creating
instances for specific use cases quite bit.

The trace_array_get_by_name() now has another parameter "systems". This
parameter is a const string pointer of a comma/space separated list of
event systems that should be created by the trace_array. (Note if the
trace_array already exists, this parameter is ignored).

The list of systems is saved and if a module is loaded, its events will
not be added unless the system for those events also match the systems
string.

Florent RevestandSteven Rostedt (Google) 8c3526fb86 arm64: ftrace: Add direct call trampoline samples support
The ftrace samples need per-architecture trampoline implementations
to save and restore argument registers around the calls to
my_direct_func* and to restore polluted registers (eg: x30).

These samples also include <asm/asm-offsets.h> which, on arm64, is not
necessary and redefines previously defined macros (resulting in
warnings) so these includes are guarded by !CONFIG_ARM64.

Florent RevestandSteven Rostedt (Google) 8564c31587 samples: ftrace: Save required argument registers in sample trampolines
The ftrace-direct-too sample traces the handle_mm_fault function whose
signature changed since the introduction of the sample. Since:
commit bce617edec ("mm: do page fault accounting in handle_mm_fault")
handle_mm_fault now has 4 arguments. Therefore, the sample trampoline
should save 4 argument registers.

s390 saves all argument registers already so it does not need a change
but x86_64 needs an extra push and pop.

This also evolves the signature of the tracing function to make it
mirror the signature of the traced function.

A common pattern when using the ftrace_direct_multi API is to unregister

easy for users to miss calling ftrace_free_filter().

This adds a "free_filters" argument to unregister_ftrace_direct_multi()
to both remind the user they should free filters and also to make their
life easier.

Mark RutlandandSteven Rostedt (Google) b56c68f705 ftrace: Add sample with custom ops
When reworking core ftrace code or architectural ftrace code, it's often
necessary to test/analyse/benchmark a number of ftrace_ops
configurations. This patch adds a module which can be used to explore
some of those configurations.

I'm using this to benchmark various options for changing the way
trampolines and handling of ftrace_ops work on arm64, and ensuring other
architectures aren't adversely affected.

For example, in a QEMU+KVM VM running on a 2GHz Xeon E5-2660
workstation, loading the module in various configurations produces:

Mark RutlandandSteven Rostedt (Google) 8be9fbd534 ftrace: Export ftrace_free_filter() to modules
Setting filters on an ftrace ops results in some memory being allocated
for the filter hashes, which must be freed before the ops can be freed.
This can be done by removing every individual element of the hash by
calling ftrace_set_filter_ip() or ftrace_set_filter_ips() with `remove`
set, but this is somewhat error prone as it's easy to forget to remove
an element.

Make it easier to clean this up by exporting ftrace_free_filter(), which
can be used to clean up all of the filter hashes after an ftrace_ops has
been unregistered.

Using this, fix the ftrace-direct* samples to free hashes prior to being
unloaded. All other code either removes individual filters explicitly or
is built-in and already calls ftrace_free_filter().

Peter Zijlstra ee3e2469b3 x86/ftrace: Make it call depth tracking aware
Since ftrace has trampolines, don't use thunks for the __fentry__ site
but instead require that every function called from there includes
accounting. This very much includes all the direct-call functions.

Additionally, ftrace uses ROP tricks in two places:

 - return_to_handler(), and
 - ftrace_regs_caller() when pt_regs->orig_ax is set by a direct-call.

return_to_handler() already uses a retpoline to replace an
indirect-jump to defeat IBT, since this is a jump-type retpoline, make
sure there is no accounting done and ALTERNATIVE the RET into a ret.

ftrace_regs_caller() does much the same and gets the same treatment.

Linus Torvalds 64ad946152 Merge tag 'x86_core_for_v5.17_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 core updates from Borislav Petkov:

 - Get rid of all the .fixup sections because this generates
   misleading/wrong stacktraces and confuse RELIABLE_STACKTRACE and
   LIVEPATCH as the backtrace misses the function which is being fixed
   up.

 - Add Straight Line Speculation mitigation support which uses a new
   compiler switch -mharden-sls= which sticks an INT3 after a RET or an
   indirect branch in order to block speculation after them. Reportedly,
   CPUs do speculate behind such insns.

 - The usual set of cleanups and improvements
