Currently if an arch supports function graph tracing, the core code will just assign the function graph trampoline to the function graph addr that gets called. But as the old method for function graph tracing always calls the function trampoline first and that calls the function graph trampoline, some archs may have the function graph trampoline dependent on operations that were done in the function trampoline. This causes function graph tracer to break on those archs. Instead of having the default be to set the function graph ftrace_ops to the function graph trampoline, have it instead just set it to zero which will keep it from jumping to a trampoline that is not set up to be jumped directly too.

Disabling reading and writing to the trace file should not be able to disable all function tracing callbacks. There's other users today (like kprobes and perf). Reading a trace file should not stop those from happening.

There's several locations in the kernel that open code the calculation of the next location in the trace_seq buffer.

Currently trace_seq_putmem_hex() can only take as a parameter a pointer to something that is 8 bytes or less, otherwise it will overflow the buffer. This is protected by a macro that encompasses the call to trace_seq_putmem_hex() that has a BUILD_BUG_ON() for the variable before it is passed in. This is not very robust and if trace_seq_putmem_hex() ever gets used outside that macro it will cause issues. Instead of only being able to produce a hex output of memory that is for a single word, change it to be more robust and allow any size input. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

For using trace_seq_*() functions in NMI context, I posted a patch to move it to the lib/ directory. This caused Andrew Morton to take a look at the code. He went through and gave a lot of comments about missing kernel doc, inconsistent types for the save variable, mix match of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() and EXPORT_SYMBOL() as well as missing EXPORT_SYMBOL*()s. There were a few comments about the way variables were being compared (int vs uint). All these were good review comments and should be implemented regardless of if trace_seq.c should be moved to lib/ or not. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Function graph tracing is a bit different than the function tracers, as it is processed after either the ftrace_caller or ftrace_regs_caller and we only have one place to modify the jump to ftrace_graph_caller, the jump needs to happen after the restore of registeres. The function graph tracer is dependent on the function tracer, where even if the function graph tracing is going on by itself, the save and restore of registers is still done for function tracing regardless of if function tracing is happening, before it calls the function graph code. If there's no function tracing happening, it is possible to just call the function graph tracer directly, and avoid the wasted effort to save and restore regs for function tracing. This requires adding new flags to the dyn_ftrace records: FTRACE_FL_TRAMP FTRACE_FL_TRAMP_EN The first is set if the count for the record is one, and the ftrace_ops associated to that record has its own trampoline. That way the mcount code can call that trampoline directly. In the future, trampolines can be added to arbitrary ftrace_ops, where you can have two or more ftrace_ops registered to ftrace (like kprobes and perf) and if they are not tracing the same functions, then instead of doing a loop to check all registered ftrace_ops against their hashes, just call the ftrace_ops trampoline directly, which would call the registered ftrace_ops function directly. Without this patch perf showed: 0.05% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] ftrace_caller 0.05% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] arch_local_irq_save 0.05% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] native_sched_clock 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __buffer_unlock_commit 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] preempt_trace 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] prepare_ftrace_return 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __this_cpu_preempt_check 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] ftrace_graph_caller See that the ftrace_caller took up more time than the ftrace_graph_caller did.

The usage of uprobe_buffer_enable() added by dcad1a20 is very wrong, 1. uprobe_buffer_enable() and uprobe_buffer_disable() are not balanced, _enable() should be called only if !enabled. 2. If uprobe_buffer_enable() fails probe_event_enable() should clear tp.flags and free event_file_link. 3. If uprobe_register() fails it should do uprobe_buffer_disable().

I do not know why dd9fa555 "tracing/uprobes: Move argument fetching to uprobe_dispatcher()" added the UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE, but it looks wrong. OK, perhaps it makes sense to avoid store_trace_args() if the tracee is nacked by uprobe_perf_filter(). But then we should kill the same code in uprobe_perf_func() and unify the TRACE/PROFILE filtering (we need to do this anyway to mix perf/ftrace). Until then this code actually adds the pessimization because uprobe_perf_filter() will be called twice and return T in likely case.

Add WARN_ON's into uprobe_unregister() and uprobe_apply() to ensure that nobody tries to play with the dead uprobe/consumer. This helps to catch the bugs like the one fixed by the previous patch. In the longer term we should fix this poorly designed interface. uprobe_register() should return "struct uprobe *" which should be passed to apply/unregister. Plus other semantic changes, see the changelog in commit 41ccba02.

This reverts commit 43fe9891. This patch is very wrong. Firstly, this change leads to unbalanced uprobe_unregister(). Just for example, # perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall # echo 1 >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe_libc/enable # perf record -e probe_libc:syscall whatever after that uprobe is dead (unregistered) but the user of ftrace/perf can't know this, and it looks as if nobody hits this probe. This would be easy to fix, but there are other reasons why it is not simple to mix ftrace and perf. If nothing else, they can't share the same ->consumer.filter. This is fixable too, but probably we need to fix the poorly designed uprobe_register() interface first. At least "register" and "apply" should be clearly separated.

As new flags will be added to the ftrace dynamic record, and since the flags field is also a counter, converting the numbers used to do the shifting and masking into a set of macros where we only need to deal with the max bit count of the counter and the number of bits for the flags will prevent mistakes in the future. Dealing with only two numbers is much easier than updating all the macros that deal with shifting and masking. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

When registering a function callback for the function tracer, the ops can specify if it wants to save full regs (like an interrupt would) for each function that it traces, or if it does not care about regs and just wants to have the fastest return possible. Once a ops has registered a function, if other ops register that function they all will receive the regs too. That's because it does the work once, it does it for everyone. Now if the ops wanting regs unregisters the function so that there's only ops left that do not care about regs, those ops will still continue getting regs and going through the work for it on that function. This is because the disabling of the rec counter only sees the ops registered, and does not see the ops that are still attached, and does not know if the current ops that are still attached want regs or not. To play it safe, it just keeps regs being processed until no function is registered anymore. Instead of doing that, check the ops that are still registered for that function and if none want regs for it anymore, then disable the processing of regs.

On the syscall tracing path, we call out to secure_computing() to allow seccomp to check the syscall number being attempted. As part of this, a SIGTRAP may be sent to the tracer and the syscall could be re-written by a subsequent SET_SYSCALL ptrace request. Unfortunately, this new syscall is ignored by the current code unless TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE is also set on the current thread. This patch slightly reworks the enter path of the syscall tracing code so that we always reload the syscall number from current_thread_info()->syscall after the potential ptrace traps.

When a PL310 cache is used on a system that provides hardware coherency, the outer cache sync operation is useless, and can be skipped. Moreover, on some systems, it is harmful as it causes deadlocks between the Marvell coherency mechanism, the Marvell PCIe controller and the Cortex-A9. To avoid this, this commit introduces a new Device Tree property 'arm,io-coherent' for the L2 cache controller node, valid only for the PL310 cache. It identifies the usage of the PL310 cache in an I/O coherent configuration. Internally, it makes the driver disable the outer cache sync operation. Note that technically speaking, a fully coherent system wouldn't require any of the other .outer_cache operations. However, in practice, when booting secondary CPUs, these are not yet coherent, and therefore a set of cache maintenance operations are necessary at this point. This explains why we keep the other .outer_cache operations and only ->sync is disabled. While in theory any write to a PL310 register could cause the deadlock, in practice, disabling ->sync is sufficient to workaround the deadlock, since the other cache maintenance operations are only used in very specific situations. Contrary to previous versions of this patch, this new version does not simply NULL-ify the ->sync member, because the l2c_init_data structures are now 'const' and therefore cannot be modified, which is a good thing. Therefore, this patch introduces a separate l2c_init_data instance, called of_l2c310_coherent_data.
