      rv/include: Add deterministic automata monitor definition via C macros · 79257534
      Daniel Bristot de Oliveira authored 
      In Linux terms, the runtime verification monitors are encapsulated
inside the "RV monitor" abstraction. The "RV monitor" includes a set
of instances of the monitor (per-cpu monitor, per-task monitor, and
so on), the helper functions that glue the monitor to the system
reference model, and the trace output as a reaction for event parsing
and exceptions, as depicted below:

                                 +-------> <user-specified>

Add the rv/da_monitor.h, enabling automatic code generation for the
*Monitor Instance(s)* using C macros, and code to support it.

The benefits of the usage of macro for monitor synthesis are 3-fold as it:

- Reduces the code duplication;
- Facilitates the bug fix/improvement;
- Avoids the case of developers changing the core of the monitor code
  to manipulate the model in a (let's say) non-standard way.

This initial implementation presents three different types of monitor
instances:

- DECLARE_DA_MON_GLOBAL(name, type)
- DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_CPU(name, type)
- DECLARE_DA_MON_PER_TASK(name, type)

The first declares the functions for a global deterministic automata monitor,
the second for monitors with per-cpu instances, and the third with per-task
instances.

      rv/include: Add helper functions for deterministic automata · 09ecd8b8
      Daniel Bristot de Oliveira authored 
      Formally, a deterministic automaton, denoted by G, is defined as a
quintuple:

  G = { X, E, f, x_0, X_m }

where:
	- X is the set of states;
	- E is the finite set of events;
	- x_0 is the initial state;
	- X_m (subset of X) is the set of marked states.
	- f : X x E -> X $ is the transition function. It defines the
	  state transition in the occurrence of a event from E in
	  the state X. In the special case of deterministic automata,
	  the occurrence of the event in E in a state in X has a
	  deterministic next state from X.

An automaton can also be represented using a graphical format of
vertices (nodes) and edges. The open-source tool Graphviz can produce
this graphic format using the (textual) DOT language as the source code.

The dot2c tool presented in this paper:

Silva. Efficient formal verification for the Linux kernel. In:
International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods.
Springer, Cham, 2019. p. 315-332.

Translates a deterministic automaton in the DOT format into a C
source code representation that to be used for monitoring.

This header file implements helper functions to facilitate the usage
of the C output from dot2c/k for monitoring.

      rv: Add runtime reactors interface · 04acadcb
      Daniel Bristot de Oliveira authored 
      A runtime monitor can cause a reaction to the detection of an
exception on the model's execution. By default, the monitors have
tracing reactions, printing the monitor output via tracepoints.
But other reactions can be added (on-demand) via this interface.

The user interface resembles the kernel tracing interface and
presents these files:

"available_reactors"
  - Reading shows the available reactors, one per line.

   For example:
     # cat available_reactors
     nop
     panic
     printk

 "reacting_on"
   - It is an on/off general switch for reactors, disabling
   all reactions.

 "monitors/MONITOR/reactors"
   - List available reactors, with the select reaction for the given
   MONITOR inside []. The default one is the nop (no operation)
   reactor.
   - Writing the name of a reactor enables it to the given
   MONITOR.

   For example:
     # cat monitors/wip/reactors
     [nop]
     panic
     printk
     # echo panic > monitors/wip/reactors
     # cat monitors/wip/reactors
     nop
     [panic]
     printk

      rv: Add Runtime Verification (RV) interface · 102227b9
      Daniel Bristot de Oliveira authored 
      RV is a lightweight (yet rigorous) method that complements classical
exhaustive verification techniques (such as model checking and
theorem proving) with a more practical approach to complex systems.

RV works by analyzing the trace of the system's actual execution,
comparing it against a formal specification of the system behavior.
RV can give precise information on the runtime behavior of the
monitored system while enabling the reaction for unexpected
events, avoiding, for example, the propagation of a failure on
safety-critical systems.

The development of this interface roots in the development of the
paper:

De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot; Cucinotta, Tommaso; De Oliveira, Romulo
Silva. Efficient formal verification for the Linux kernel. In:
International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods.
Springer, Cham, 2019. p. 315-332.

And:

De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot. Automata-based formal analysis
and verification of the real-time Linux kernel. PhD Thesis, 2020.

The RV interface resembles the tracing/ interface on purpose. The current
path for the RV interface is /sys/kernel/tracing/rv/.

It presents these files:

 "available_monitors"
   - List the available monitors, one per line.

   For example:
     # cat available_monitors
     wip
     wwnr

 "enabled_monitors"
   - Lists the enabled monitors, one per line;
   - Writing to it enables a given monitor;
   - Writing a monitor name with a '!' prefix disables it;
   - Truncating the file disables all enabled monitors.

   For example:
     # cat enabled_monitors
     # echo wip > enabled_monitors
     # echo wwnr >> enabled_monitors
     # cat enabled_monitors
     wip
     wwnr
     # echo '!wip' >> enabled_monitors
     # cat enabled_monitors
     wwnr
     # echo > enabled_monitors
     # cat enabled_monitors
     #

   Note that more than one monitor can be enabled concurrently.

 "monitoring_on"
   - It is an on/off general switcher for monitoring. Note
   that it does not disable enabled monitors or detach events,
   but stop the per-entity monitors of monitoring the events
   received from the system. It resembles the "tracing_on" switcher.

 "monitors/"
   Each monitor will have its one directory inside "monitors/". There
   the monitor specific files will be presented.
   The "monitors/" directory resembles the "events" directory on
   tracefs.

   For example:
     # cd monitors/wip/
     # ls
     desc  enable
     # cat desc
     wakeup in preemptive per-cpu testing monitor.
     # cat enable
     0

kernel/trace/rv/rv.c from this patch.

      ftrace/x86: Add back ftrace_expected assignment · ac6c1b2c
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      When a ftrace_bug happens (where ftrace fails to modify a location) it is
helpful to have what was at that location as well as what was expected to
be there.

But with the conversion to text_poke() the variable that assigns the
expected for debugging was dropped. Unfortunately, I noticed this when I
needed it. Add it back.

      tracing: Use a copy of the va_list for __assign_vstr() · 3a2dcbaf
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      If an instance of tracing enables the same trace event as another
instance, or the top level instance, or even perf, then the va_list passed
into some tracepoints can be used more than once.

As va_list can only be traversed once, this can cause issues:

 # cat /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/qla2xxx/trace
             cat-56106   [012] ..... 2419873.470098: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1054:14:  Entered (null).

             cat-56106   [012] ..... 2419873.470100: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1000:14:  Entered qla2x00_mailbox_command.

The instance version is corrupted because the top level instance iterated
the va_list first.

Use va_copy() in the __assign_vstr() macro to make sure that each trace
event for each use case gets a fresh va_list.

__vstring() helper that will use a va_list and only write enough of the
string into the ring buffer that is needed.

      tracing/events: Add __vstring() and __assign_vstr() helper macros · 0563231f
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      There's several places that open code the following logic:

  TP_STRUCT__entry(__dynamic_array(char, msg, MSG_MAX)),
  TP_fast_assign(vsnprintf(__get_str(msg), MSG_MAX, vaf->fmt, *vaf->va);)

To load a string created by variable array va_list.

The main issue with this approach is that "MSG_MAX" usage in the
__dynamic_array() portion. That actually just reserves the MSG_MAX in the
event, and even wastes space because there's dynamic meta data also saved
in the event to denote the offset and size of the dynamic array. It would
have been better to just use a static __array() field.

Instead, create __vstring() and __assign_vstr() that work like __string
and __assign_str() but instead of taking a destination string to copy,
take a format string and a va_list pointer and fill in the values.

It uses the helper:

 #define __trace_event_vstr_len(fmt, va)		\
 ({							\
	va_list __ap;					\
	int __ret;					\
							\
	va_copy(__ap, *(va));				\
	__ret = vsnprintf(NULL, 0, fmt, __ap) + 1;	\
	va_end(__ap);					\
							\
	min(__ret, TRACE_EVENT_STR_MAX);		\
 })

To figure out the length to store the string. It may be slightly slower as
it needs to run the vsnprintf() twice, but it now saves space on the ring
buffer.

      neighbor: tracing: Have neigh_create event use __string() · 43b2aef3
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      The dev field of the neigh_create event uses __dynamic_array() with a
fixed size, which defeats the purpose of __dynamic_array(). Looking at the
logic, as it already uses __assign_str(), just use the same logic in
__string to create the size needed. It appears that because "dev" can be
NULL, it needs the check. But __string() can have the same checks as
__assign_str() so use them there too.

      tracing/ipv4/ipv6: Use static array for name field in fib*_lookup_table event · fca8300f
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      The fib_lookup_table and fib6_lookup_table events declare name as a
dynamic_array, but also give it a fixed size, which defeats the purpose of
the dynamic array, especially since the dynamic array also includes meta
data in the event to specify its size.

Since the size of the name is at most 16 bytes (defined by IFNAMSIZ),
it is not worth spending the effort to determine the size of the string.

Just use a fixed size array and copy into it. This will save 4 bytes that
are used for the meta data that saves the size and position of a dynamic
array, and even slightly speed up the event processing.
