Add support for hist:handlerXXX($var).snapshot(), which will take a snapshot of the current trace buffer whenever handlerXXX is hit. As a first user, this also adds snapshot() action support for the onmax() handler i.e. hist:onmax($var).snapshot(). Also, the hist trigger key printing is moved into a separate function so the snapshot() action can print a histogram key outside the histogram display - add and use hist_trigger_print_key() for that purpose.

Currently, tracing snapshots are context-free - they capture the ring buffer contents at the time the tracing_snapshot() function was invoked, and nothing else. Additionally, they're always taken unconditionally - the calling code can decide whether or not to take a snapshot, but the data used to make that decision is kept separately from the snapshot itself. This change adds the ability to associate with each trace instance some user data, along with an 'update' function that can use that data to determine whether or not to actually take a snapshot. The update function can then update that data along with any other state (as part of the data presumably), if warranted. Because snapshots are 'global' per-instance, only one user can enable and use a conditional snapshot for any given trace instance. To enable a conditional snapshot (see details in the function and data structure comments), the user calls tracing_snapshot_cond_enable(). Similarly, to disable a conditional snapshot and free it up for other users, tracing_snapshot_cond_disable() should be called. To actually initiate a conditional snapshot, tracing_snapshot_cond() should be called. tracing_snapshot_cond() will invoke the update() callback, allowing the user to decide whether or not to actually take the snapshot and update the user-defined data associated with the snapshot. If the callback returns 'true', tracing_snapshot_cond() will then actually take the snapshot and return. This scheme allows for flexibility in snapshot implementations - for example, by implementing slightly different update() callbacks, snapshots can be taken in situations where the user is only interested in taking a snapshot when a new maximum in hit versus when a value changes in any way at all. Future patches will demonstrate both cases. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1bea07828d5fd6864a585f83b1eed47ce097eb45.1550100284.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by:

The action refactor code allowed actions and handlers to be separated, but the existing onmax handler and save action code is still not flexible enough to handle arbitrary coupling. This change generalizes them and in the process makes additional handlers and actions easier to implement. The onmax action can be broken up and thought of as two separate components - a variable to be tracked (the parameter given to the onmax($var_to_track) function) and an invisible variable created to save the ongoing result of doing something with that variable, such as saving the max value of that variable so far seen. Separating it out like this and renaming it appropriately allows us to use the same code for similar tracking functions such as onchange($var_to_track), which would just track the last value seen rather than the max seen so far, which is useful in some situations. Additionally, because different handlers and actions may want to save and access data differently e.g. save and retrieve tracking values as local variables vs something more global, save_val() and get_val() interface functions are introduced and max-specific implementations are used instead. The same goes for the code that checks whether a maximum has been hit - a generic check_val() interface and max-checking implementation is used instead, which allows future patches to make use of he same code using their own implemetations of similar functionality.

Currently, the onmatch action data binds the onmatch action to data related to synthetic event generation. Since we want to allow the onmatch handler to potentially invoke a different action, and because we expect other handlers to generate synthetic events, we need to separate the data related to these two functions. Also rename the onmatch data to something more descriptive, and create and use common action data destroy function.

The action/handler code refactoring didn't change the action/handler syntax, but did generalize it - the Documentation should reflect that. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/c2fe4144678829c70cad67aaa847dca27d57cb83.1550100284.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by:

The hist trigger action code currently implements two essentially hard-coded pairs of 'actions' - onmax(), which tracks a variable and saves some event fields when a max is hit, and onmatch(), which is hard-coded to generate a synthetic event. These hardcoded pairs (track max/save fields and detect match/generate synthetic event) should really be decoupled into separate components that can then be arbitrarily combined. The first component of each pair (track max/detect match) is called a 'handler' in the new code, while the second component (save fields/generate synthetic event) is called an 'action' in this scheme. This change refactors the action code to reflect this split by adding two handlers, HANDLER_ONMATCH and HANDLER_ONMAX, along with two actions, ACTION_SAVE and ACTION_TRACE. The new code combines them to produce the existing ONMATCH/TRACE and ONMAX/SAVE functionality, but doesn't implement the other combinations now possible. Future patches will expand these to further useful cases, such as ONMAX/TRACE, as well as add additional handlers and actions such as ONCHANGE and SNAPSHOT. Also, add abbreviated documentation for handlers and actions to README.

Commit d716ff71 ("tracing: Remove taking of trace_types_lock in pipe files") use the current tracer instead of the copy in tracing_open_pipe(), but it forget to remove the freeing sentence in the error path. There's an error path that can call kfree(iter->trace) after the iter->trace was assigned to tr->current_trace, which would be bad to free.

atomic_t variables are currently used to implement reference counters with the following properties: - counter is initialized to 1 using atomic_set() - a resource is freed upon counter reaching zero - once counter reaches zero, its further increments aren't allowed - counter schema uses basic atomic operations (set, inc, inc_not_zero, dec_and_test, etc.) Such atomic variables should be converted to a newly provided refcount_t type and API that prevents accidental counter overflows and underflows. This is important since overflows and underflows can lead to use-after-free situation and be exploitable. The variable uprobe.ref is used as pure reference counter. Convert it to refcount_t and fix up the operations. **Important note for maintainers: Some functions from refcount_t API defined in lib/refcount.c have different memory ordering guarantees than their atomic counterparts. The full comparison can be seen in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/15/57 and it is hopefully soon in state to be merged to the documentation tree. Normally the differences should not matter since refcount_t provides enough guarantees to satisfy the refcounting use cases, but in some rare cases it might matter. Please double check that you don't have some undocumented memory guarantees for this variable usage. For the uprobe.ref it might make a difference in following places: - put_uprobe(): decrement in refcount_dec_and_test() only provides RELEASE ordering and control dependency on success vs. fully ordered atomic counterpart Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1547637627-29526-1-git-send-email-elena.reshetova@intel.comSuggested-by:

Enabling of large number of functions by echoing in a large subset of the functions in available_filter_functions can take a very long time. The process requires testing all functions registered by the function tracer (which is in the 10s of thousands), and doing a kallsyms lookup to convert the ip address into a name, then comparing that name with the string passed in. When a function causes the function tracer to crash the system, a binary bisect of the available_filter_functions can be done to find the culprit. But this requires passing in half of the functions in available_filter_functions over and over again, which makes it basically a O(n^2) operation. With 40,000 functions, that ends up bing 1,600,000,000 opertions! And enabling this can take over 20 minutes. As a quick speed up, if a number is passed into one of the filter files, instead of doing a search, it just enables the function at the corresponding line of the available_filter_functions file. That is: # echo 50 > set_ftrace_filter # cat set_ftrace_filter x86_pmu_commit_txn # head -50 available_filter_functions | tail -1 x86_pmu_commit_txn This allows setting of half the available_filter_functions to take place in less than a second! # time seq 20000 > set_ftrace_filter real 0m0.042s user 0m0.005s sys 0m0.015s # wc -l set_ftrace_filter 20000 set_ftrace_filter Signed-off-by:

When reading 'efi_page_tables' debugfs triggers an out-of-bounds access here: arch/arm64/mm/dump.c: 282 if (addr >= st->marker[1].start_address) { called from: arch/arm64/mm/dump.c: 331 note_page(st, addr, 2, pud_val(pud)); because st->marker++ is is called after "UEFI runtime end" which is the last element in addr_marker[]. Therefore, add a terminator like the one for kernel_page_tables, so it can be skipped to print out non-existent markers. Here's the KASAN bug report: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/efi_page_tables ---[ UEFI runtime start ]--- 0x0000000020000000-0x0000000020010000 64K PTE RW NX SHD AF ... 0x0000000020200000-0x0000000021340000 17664K PTE RW NX SHD AF ... ... 0x0000000021920000-0x0000000021950000 192K PTE RW x SHD AF ... 0x0000000021950000-0x00000000219a0000 320K PTE RW NX SHD AF ... ---[ UEFI runtime end ]--- ---[ (null) ]--- ---[ (null) ]--- BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in note_page+0x1f0/0xac0 Read of size 8 at addr ffff2000123f2ac0 by task read_all/42464 Call trace: dump_backtrace+0x0/0x298 show_stack+0x24/0x30 dump_stack+0xb0/0xdc print_address_description+0x64/0x2b0 kasan_report+0x150/0x1a4 __asan_report_load8_noabort+0x30/0x3c note_page+0x1f0/0xac0 walk_pgd+0xb4/0x244 ptdump_walk_pgd+0xec/0x140 ptdump_show+0x40/0x50 seq_read+0x3f8/0xad0 full_proxy_read+0x9c/0xc0 __vfs_read+0xfc/0x4c8 vfs_read+0xec/0x208 ksys_read+0xd0/0x15c __arm64_sys_read+0x84/0x94 el0_svc_handler+0x258/0x304 el0_svc+0x8/0xc The buggy address belongs to the variable: __compound_literal.0+0x20/0x800 Memory state around the buggy address: ffff2000123f2980: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ffff2000123f2a00: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fa >ffff2000123f2a80: fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 fa fa fa fa 00 00 00 00 ^ ffff2000123f2b00: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ffff2000123f2b80: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0 [ ardb: fix up whitespace ] [ mingo: fix up some moar ] Signed-off-by:Qian Cai <cai@lca.pw> Signed-off-by:

"Resource Control" is a very broad term for this CPU feature, and a term that is also associated with containers, cgroups etc. This can easily cause confusion. Make the user prompt more specific.

autofs_expire_run() calls dput(dentry) to drop the reference count of dentry. However, dentry is read via autofs_dentry_ino(dentry) after that. This may result in a use-free-bug. The patch drops the reference count of dentry only when it is never used. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/154725122396.11260.16053424107144453867.stgit@pluto-themaw-netSigned-off-by:

When superblock has lots of inodes without any pagecache (like is the case for /proc), drop_pagecache_sb() will iterate through all of them without dropping sb->s_inode_list_lock which can lead to softlockups (one of our customers hit this). Fix the problem by going to the slow path and doing cond_resched() in case the process needs rescheduling. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190114085343.15011-1-jack@suse.czSigned-off-by:

We had a race in the old balloon compaction code before b1123ea6 ("mm: balloon: use general non-lru movable page feature") refactored it that became visible after backporting 195a8c43 ("virtio-balloon: deflate via a page list") without the refactoring. The bug existed from commit d6d86c0a ("mm/balloon_compaction: redesign ballooned pages management") till b1123ea6 ("mm: balloon: use general non-lru movable page feature"). d6d86c0a ("mm/balloon_compaction: redesign ballooned pages management") was backported to 3.12, so the broken kernels are stable kernels [3.12 - 4.7]. There was a subtle race between dropping the page lock of the newpage in __unmap_and_move() and checking for __is_movable_balloon_page(newpage). Just after dropping this page lock, virtio-balloon could go ahead and deflate the newpage, effectively dequeueing it and clearing PageBalloon, in turn making __is_movable_balloon_page(newpage) fail. This resulted in dropping the reference of the newpage via putback_lru_page(newpage) instead of put_page(newpage), leading to page->lru getting modified and a !LRU page ending up in the LRU lists. With 195a8c43 ("virtio-balloon: deflate via a page list") backported, one would suddenly get corrupted lists in release_pages_balloon(): - WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 6586 at lib/list_debug.c:59 __list_del_entry+0xa1/0xd0 - list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffffe253961090a0, but was dead000000000100 Nowadays this race is no longer possible, but it is hidden behind very ugly handling of __ClearPageMovable() and __PageMovable(). __ClearPageMovable() will not make __PageMovable() fail, only PageMovable(). So the new check (__PageMovable(newpage)) will still hold even after newpage was dequeued by virtio-balloon. If anybody would ever change that special handling, the BUG would be introduced again. So instead, make it explicit and use the information of the original isolated page before migration. This patch can be backported fairly easy to stable kernels (in contrast to the refactoring).
