When CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is available, the ftrace call
will be able to set the ip of the calling function. This will improve the
performance of live kernel patching where it does not need all the regs to
be stored just to change the instruction pointer.
If all archs that support live kernel patching also support
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, then the architecture specific function
klp_arch_set_pc() could be made generic.
It is possible that an arch can support HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS but
not HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and then have access to live patching.

Currently, the only way to get access to the registers of a function via a
ftrace callback is to set the "FL_SAVE_REGS" bit in the ftrace_ops. But as this
saves all regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger (for use with kprobes), it
is expensive.
The regs are already saved on the stack for the default ftrace callbacks, as
that is required otherwise a function being traced will get the wrong
arguments and possibly crash. And on x86, the arguments are already stored
where they would be on a pt_regs structure to use that code for both the
regs version of a callback, it makes sense to pass that information always
to all functions.
If an architecture does this (as x86_64 now does), it is to set
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, and this will let the generic code that it
could have access to arguments without having to set the flags.
This also includes having the stack pointer being saved, which could be used
for accessing arguments on the stack, as well as having the function graph
tracer not require its own trampoline!

In preparation to have arguments of a function passed to callbacks attached
to functions as default, change the default callback prototype to receive a
struct ftrace_regs as the forth parameter instead of a pt_regs.
For callbacks that set the FL_SAVE_REGS flag in their ftrace_ops flags, they
will now need to get the pt_regs via a ftrace_get_regs() helper call. If
this is called by a callback that their ftrace_ops did not have a
FL_SAVE_REGS flag set, it that helper function will return NULL.
This will allow the ftrace_regs to hold enough just to get the parameters
and stack pointer, but without the worry that callbacks may have a pt_regs
that is not completely filled.

Inspecting the data structures of the function graph tracer, I found that
the overrun value is unsigned long, which is 8 bytes on a 64 bit machine,
and not only that, the depth is an int (4 bytes). The overrun can be simply
an unsigned int (4 bytes) and pack the ftrace_graph_ret structure better.
The depth is moved up next to the func, as it is used more often with func,
and improves cache locality.

Currently, if a callback is registered to a ftrace function and its
ftrace_ops does not have the RECURSION flag set, it is encapsulated in a
helper function that does the recursion for it.
Really, all the callbacks should have their own recursion protection for
performance reasons. But they should not all implement their own. Move the
recursion helpers to global headers, so that all callbacks can use them.

Symbols are needed for tools to describe instruction addresses. Pages
allocated for ftrace's purposes need symbols to be created for them.
Add such symbols to be visible via /proc/kallsyms.
Example on x86 with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y
# echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# cat /proc/kallsyms | grep '\[__builtin__ftrace\]'
ffffffffc0238000 t ftrace_trampoline [__builtin__ftrace]
Note: This patch adds "__builtin__ftrace" as a module name in /proc/kallsyms for
symbols for pages allocated for ftrace's purposes, even though "__builtin__ftrace"
is not a module.

I was able to trigger it on other machines, when I added to the kernel
command line of both "ftrace=function" and "trace_options=func_stack_trace".
The cause is the "ftrace=function" would register the function tracer
and create a trampoline, and it will set it as executable and
read-only. Then the "trace_options=func_stack_trace" would then update
the same trampoline to include the stack tracer version of the function
tracer. But since the trampoline already exists, it updates it with
text_poke_bp(). The problem is that text_poke_bp() called while
system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING, it will simply do a memcpy() and not
the page mapping, as it would think that the text is still read-write.
But in this case it is not, and we take a fault and crash.
Instead, lets keep the ftrace trampolines read-write during boot up,
and then when the kernel executable text is set to read-only, the
ftrace trampolines get set to read-only as well.

Instead of having all the sysctl handlers deal with user pointers, which
is rather hairy in terms of the BPF interaction, copy the input to and
from userspace in common code. This also means that the strings are
always NUL-terminated by the common code, making the API a little bit
safer.
As most handler just pass through the data to one of the common handlers
a lot of the changes are mechnical.

patch, and then using "git commit -a --amend", which pulled in some
other changes I was playing with.
- Remove an used variable in trace_events_inject code
- Fix function graph tracer when it traces a ftrace direct function.
It will now ignore tracing a function that has a ftrace direct
tramploine attached. This is needed for eBPF to use the ftrace direct
code.

Depending on type of BPF programs served by BPF trampoline it can call original

returning. That will confuse function_graph tracer and will cause crashes with
bad RIP. Teach graph tracer to skip functions that have BPF trampoline attached.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"New tracing features:
- New PERMANENT flag to ftrace_ops when attaching a callback to a
function.
As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable
all attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on
live kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a
ftrace_ops is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it
will prevent ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if
ftrace_enabled is already disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops
with PREMANENT flag set from being registered.
- New register_ftrace_direct().
As eBPF would like to register its own trampolines to be called by
the ftrace nop locations directly, without going through the ftrace
trampoline, this function has been added. This allows for eBPF
trampolines to live along side of ftrace, perf, kprobe and live
patching. It also utilizes the ftrace enabled_functions file that
keeps track of functions that have been modified in the kernel, to
allow for security auditing.
- Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances.
Subsystems in the kernel can now create and destroy their own
tracing instances which allows them to have their own tracing
buffer, and be able to record events without worrying about other
users from writing over their data.
- New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their
seq_buf usage.
- Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space
to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency
tracers.
- Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch
and friends.
- More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16)
- Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the
system call trace events.
This along with small clean ups and fixes"

...
If a direct ftrace callback is at a location that does not have any other
ftrace helpers attached to it, it is possible to simply just change the
text to call the new caller (if the architecture supports it). But this
requires special architecture code. Currently, modify_ftrace_direct() uses a
trick to add a stub ftrace callback to the location forcing it to call the
ftrace iterator. Then it can change the direct helper to call the new
function in C, and then remove the stub. Removing the stub will have the
location now call the new location that the direct helper is using.
The new helper function does the registering the stub trick, but is a weak
function, allowing an architecture to override it to do something a bit more
direct.

As testing for direct calls from the function graph tracer adds a little
overhead (which is a lot when tracing every function), add a counter that
can be used to test if function_graph tracer needs to test for a direct
caller or not.
It would have been nicer if we could use a static branch, but the static
branch logic fails when used within the function graph tracer trampoline.
