      tracing: Add a probe that attaches to trace events · 7491e2c4
      Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) authored
      A new dynamic event is introduced: event probe. The event is attached
      to an existing tracepoint and uses its fields as arguments. The user
      can specify custom format string of the new event, select what tracepoint
      arguments will be printed and how to print them.
      An event probe is created by writing configuration string in
      'dynamic_events' ftrace file:
       e[:[SNAME/]ENAME] SYSTEM/EVENT [FETCHARGS]	- Set an event probe
       -:SNAME/ENAME					- Delete an event probe
      
      Where:
       SNAME	- System name, if omitted 'eprobes' is used.
       ENAME	- Name of the new event in SNAME, if omitted the SYSTEM_EVENT is used.
       SYSTEM	- Name of the system, where the tracepoint is defined, mandatory.
       EVENT	- Name of the tracepoint event in SYSTEM, mandatory.
       FETCHARGS - Arguments:
        <name>=$<field>[:TYPE] - Fetch given filed of the tracepoint and print
      			   it as given TYPE with given name. Supported
      			   types are:
      	                    (u8/u16/u32/u64/s8/s16/s32/s64), basic type
              	            (x8/x16/x32/x64), hexadecimal types
      			    "string", "ustring" and bitfield.
      
      Example, attach an event probe on openat system call and print name of the
      file that will be opened:
       echo "e:esys/eopen syscalls/sys_enter_openat file=\$filename:string" >> dynamic_events
      A new dynamic event is created in events/esys/eopen/ directory. It
      can be deleted with:
       echo "-:esys/eopen" >> dynamic_events
      
      Filters, triggers and histograms can be attached to the new event, it can
      be matched in synthetic events. There is one limitation - an event probe
      can not be attached to kprobe, uprobe or another event probe.

      The problem was the "trace(read_max,count)" where the "count" should be
      "$count" as "onmax()" only handles variables (although it really should be
      able to figure out that "count" is a field of sys_enter_read). But there's
      a path that does not find the variable and ends up passing a NULL for the
      event, which ends up getting passed to "strcmp()".
      
      Add a check for NULL to return and error on the command with:
      
       # cat error_log
        hist:syscalls:sys_enter_read: error: Couldn't create or find variable
        Command: hist:keys=common_pid:count=count:onmax($count).trace(read_max,count)

      init: Suppress wrong warning for bootconfig cmdline parameter · d0ac5fba
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      Since the 'bootconfig' command line parameter is handled before
      parsing the command line, it doesn't use early_param(). But in
      this case, kernel shows a wrong warning message about it.
      
      [    0.013714] Kernel command line: ro console=ttyS0  bootconfig console=tty0
      [    0.013741] Unknown command line parameters: bootconfig
      
      To suppress this message, add a dummy handler for 'bootconfig'.

      tracing: define needed config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS · 12f9951d
      Lukas Bulwahn authored
      Commit 2860cd8a ("livepatch: Use the default ftrace_ops instead of
      REGS when ARGS is available") intends to enable config LIVEPATCH when
      ftrace with ARGS is available. However, the chain of configs to enable
      LIVEPATCH is incomplete, as HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is available,
      but the definition of DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, combining DYNAMIC_FTRACE
      and HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, needed to enable LIVEPATCH, is missing
      in the commit.
      
      Fortunately, ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py detects this and warns:
      
      DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS
      Referencing files: kernel/livepatch/Kconfig
      
      So, define the config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS analogously to the already
      existing similar configs, DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and
      DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS, in ./kernel/trace/Kconfig to connect the
      chain of configs.

      trace/osnoise: Print a stop tracing message · 0e05ba49
      Daniel Bristot de Oliveira authored
      When using osnoise/timerlat with stop tracing, sometimes it is
      not clear in which CPU the stop condition was hit, mainly
      when using some extra events.
      
      Print a message informing in which CPU the trace stopped, like
      in the example below:

      trace/timerlat: Add a header with PREEMPT_RT additional fields · e1c4ad4a

      Some extra flags are printed to the trace header when using the

      Without printing these fields, the timerlat specific fields are
