The trace event filter bootup self test tests a bunch of filter logic
against the ftrace_test_filter event, but does not actually call the
event. Work is being done to cause a warning if an event is defined but
not used. To quiet the warning call the trace event under an if statement
where it is disabled so it doesn't get optimized out.

A warning is raised when __request_region() detects a conflict with a
resource whose resource.desc is IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY.
But this warning is only valid for iomem_resources.
The hmem device resource uses resource.desc as the numa node id, which can
cause spurious warnings.
This warning appeared on a machine with multiple cxl memory expanders.
One of the NUMA node id is 6, which is the same as the value of
IORES_DESC_DEVICE_PRIVATE_MEMORY.
In this environment it was just a spurious warning, but when I saw the
warning I suspected a real problem so it's better to fix it.
This change fixes this by restricting the warning to only iomem_resource.
This also adds a missing new line to the warning message.

GCC appears to have kind of fragile inlining heuristics, in the
sense that it can change whether or not it inlines something based on
optimizations. It looks like the kcov instrumentation being added (or in
this case, removed) from a function changes the optimization results,
and some functions marked "inline" are _not_ inlined. In that case,
we end up with __init code calling a function not marked __init, and we
get the build warnings I'm trying to eliminate in the coming patch that
adds __no_sanitize_coverage to __init functions:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: xbc_exit+0x8 (section: .text.unlikely) -> _xbc_exit (section: .init.text)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: real_mode_size_needed+0x15 (section: .text.unlikely) -> real_mode_blob_end (section: .init.data)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: __set_percpu_decrypted+0x16 (section: .text.unlikely) -> early_set_memory_decrypted (section: .init.text)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: memblock_alloc_from+0x26 (section: .text.unlikely) -> memblock_alloc_try_nid (section: .init.text)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: acpi_arch_set_root_pointer+0xc (section: .text.unlikely) -> x86_init (section: .init.data)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: acpi_arch_get_root_pointer+0x8 (section: .text.unlikely) -> x86_init (section: .init.data)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: efi_config_table_is_usable+0x16 (section: .text.unlikely) -> xen_efi_config_table_is_usable (section: .init.text)
This problem is somewhat fragile (though using either __always_inline
or __init will deterministically solve it), but we've tripped over
this before with GCC and the solution has usually been to just use
__always_inline and move on.
For x86 this means forcing several functions to be inline with
__always_inline.

Monitors generated with dot2k have their registration function (the one
called during monitor initialisation) return always 0, even if the
registration failed on RV side.
This can hide potential errors.
Return the value returned by the RV register function.

The current behaviour of rvgen when running with the -a option is to
append the necessary lines at the end of the configuration for Kconfig,
Makefile and tracepoints.
This is not always the desired behaviour in case of nested monitors:
while tracepoints are not affected by nesting and the Makefile's only
requirement is that the parent monitor is built before its children, in
the Kconfig it is better to have children defined right after their
parent, otherwise the result has wrong indentation:
[*] foo_parent monitor
[*] foo_child1 monitor
[*] foo_child2 monitor
[*] bar_parent monitor
[*] bar_child1 monitor
[*] bar_child2 monitor
[*] foo_child3 monitor
[*] foo_child4 monitor
Adapt rvgen to look for a different marker for nested monitors in the
Kconfig file and append the line right after the last sibling, instead
of the last monitor.
Also add the marker when creating a new parent monitor.

The dot2c.py script generates all states in a single line. This breaks the
100 column limit when the state machines are non-trivial.
Change dot2c.py to generate the states in separate lines in case the
generated line is going to be too long.
Also adapt existing monitors with line length over the limit.

eprobes are dynamic events that can read other events using their fields
to create new events. Currently it doesn't work with arrays. When the new
event field is attached to the old event field, it looks at the size of
the field to determine what type of field the new field should be. For 1
byte fields it's a char, for 2 bytes, it's a short and for 4 bytes it's an
integer. For all other sizes it just defaults to "long". This also reads
the contents of the field for such cases.
For arrays that are bigger than the size of long, return the value of the
address of the content itself. This will allow eprobes to read other
values in the array of the old event.
This is useful when raw_syscalls is enabled but the syscall events are
not. The syscall events are created from the raw_syscalls as they have an
array of "args" that holds the 6 long words passed to the syscall entry
point. To read the value of "filename" from sys_openat, the eprobe could
attach to the raw_syscall and read the second value.
It can then even be passed to a synthetic event and converted back to
another eprobe to get the value of "filename" after it has been read by
the kernel during the system call:
[
Create an eprobe called "sys" and attach it to sys_enter.
Read the id of the system call and the second argument
]
# echo 'e:sys raw_syscalls.sys_enter nr=$id:u32 arg2=+8($args):u64' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
[
Create a synthetic event "path" that will hold the address of the
sys_openat filename. This is on a 64bit machine, so make it 64 bits
]
# echo 's:path u64 file;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
[
Add a histogram to the eprobe/sys which tiggers if the "nr" field is
257 (sys_openat), and save the filename in the "file" variable.
]
# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:file=arg2 if nr == 257' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/eprobes/sys/trigger
[
Attach a histogram to sys_exit event that triggers the "path" synthetic
event and records the "filename" that was passed from the sys eprobe.
]
# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:f=$file:onmatch(eprobes.sys).trace(path,$f)' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_exit/trigger
[
Create another eprobe that dereferences the "file" field as a user
space string and displays it.
]
# echo 'e:open synthetic.path file=+0($file):ustring' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events
# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/eprobes/open/enable

The following BPF program, simplified from a syzkaller repro, causes a
kernel warning:
r0 = *(u8 *)(r1 + 169);
exit;
With pointer field sk being at offset 168 in __sk_buff. This access is
detected as a narrower read in bpf_skb_is_valid_access because it
doesn't match offsetof(struct __sk_buff, sk). It is therefore allowed
and later proceeds to bpf_convert_ctx_access. Note that for the
"is_narrower_load" case in the convert_ctx_accesses(), the insn->off
is aligned, so the cnt may not be 0 because it matches the
offsetof(struct __sk_buff, sk) in the bpf_convert_ctx_access. However,
the target_size stays 0 and the verifier errors with a kernel warning:
verifier bug: error during ctx access conversion(1)
This patch fixes that to return a proper "invalid bpf_context access
off=X size=Y" error on the load instruction.
The same issue affects multiple other fields in context structures that
allow narrow access. Some other non-affected fields (for sk_msg,
sk_lookup, and sockopt) were also changed to use bpf_ctx_range_ptr for
consistency.
Note this syzkaller crash was reported in the "Closes" link below, which
used to be about a different bug, fixed in
commit fce7bd8e385a ("bpf/verifier: Handle BPF_LOAD_ACQ instructions
in insn_def_regno()"). Because syzbot somehow confused the two bugs,
the new crash and repro didn't get reported to the mailing list.
Fixes: f96da09473b52 ("bpf: simplify narrower ctx access")
Fixes: 0df1a55afa832 ("bpf: Warn on internal verifier errors")

The ipi tracepoints are mostly generic, but the tracepoints ipi_raise,
ipi_entry and ipi_exit are only used by arm and arm64. This means these
trace events are wasting memory in all the other architectures that do not
use them.
Add CONFIG_HAVE_EXTRA_IPI_TRACEPOINTS and have arm and arm64 select it to
enable these trace events. The config makes it easy if other architectures
decide to trace these as well.

In January 2015, tracefs was created to allow access to the tracing
infrastructure without needing to compile in debugfs. When tracefs is
configured, the directory /sys/kernel/tracing will exist and tooling is
expected to use that path to access the tracing infrastructure.
To allow backward compatibility, when debugfs is mounted, it would
automount tracefs in its "tracing" directory so that tooling that had hard
coded /sys/kernel/debug/tracing would still work.
It has been over 10 years since the new interface was introduced, and all
tooling should now be using it. Start the process of deprecating the old
path so that it doesn't need to be maintained anymore.
A new config is added to allow distributions to disable automounting of
tracefs on debugfs.
If /sys/kernel/debug/tracing is accessed, a pr_warn() will trigger stating:
"NOTICE: Automounting of tracing to debugfs is deprecated and will be removed in 2030"
Expect to remove this feature in 5 years (2030).

Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it
requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when
a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all
architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are
added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other
architectures can still function until they too have been updated.
The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the
DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements
DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant
with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE.
Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where
applicable.

When soft disabling of trace events was first created, it needed to have a
way to know if a file had a user that was using it with soft disabled (for
triggers that need to enable or disable events from a context that can not
really enable or disable the event, it would set SOFT_DISABLED to state it
is disabled). The flag SOFT_MODE was used to denote that an event had a
user that would enable or disable it via the SOFT_DISABLED flag.
Commit 1cf4c0732db3c ("tracing: Modify soft-mode only if there's no other
referrer") fixed a bug where if two users were using the SOFT_DISABLED
flag the accounting would get messed up as the SOFT_MODE flag could only
handle one user. That commit added the sm_ref counter which kept track of
how many users were using the event in "soft mode". This made the
SOFT_MODE flag redundant as it should only be set if the sm_ref counter is
non zero.
Remove the SOFT_MODE flag and just use the sm_ref counter to know the
event is in soft mode or not. This makes the code a bit simpler.

ftrace has two flavors:
1) static: Where every function always calls the ftrace trampoline
2) dynamic: Where each function has nops that can be changed on demand to
jump to the ftrace trampoline when needed.
The static flavor has very high performance overhead and was only created
to make it easier for architectures to implement the dynamic flavor. An
architecture developer can first implement the static ftrace to make sure
the trampolines work before working on the more complicated dynamic aspect
of ftrace. Once the architecture can support dynamic ftrace, there's no
reason to continue to support the static flavor. In fact, the static
flavor tends to bitrot and bugs start to appear in them.
Remove the prompt to pick DYNAMIC_FTRACE and simply enable it if the
architecture supports it.

When the ring buffer was first introduced, reading the non-consuming
"trace" file required disabling the writing of the ring buffer. To make
sure the writing was fully disabled before iterating the buffer with a
non-consuming read, it would set the disable flag of the buffer and then
call an RCU synchronization to make sure all the buffers were
synchronized.
The function ring_buffer_read_start() originally would initialize the
iterator and call an RCU synchronization, but this was for each individual
per CPU buffer where this would get called many times on a machine with
many CPUs before the trace file could be read. The commit 72c9ddfd4c5bf
("ring-buffer: Make non-consuming read less expensive with lots of cpus.")
separated ring_buffer_read_start into ring_buffer_read_prepare(),
ring_buffer_read_sync() and then ring_buffer_read_start() to allow each of
the per CPU buffers to be prepared, call the read_buffer_read_sync() once,
and then the ring_buffer_read_start() for each of the CPUs which made
things much faster.
The commit 1039221cc278 ("ring-buffer: Do not disable recording when there
is an iterator") removed the requirement of disabling the recording of the
ring buffer in order to iterate it, but it did not remove the
synchronization that was happening that was required to wait for all the
buffers to have no more writers. It's now OK for the buffers to have
writers and no synchronization is needed.
Remove the synchronization and put back the interface for the ring buffer
iterator back before commit 72c9ddfd4c5bf was applied.

Yicon reported and Liangyan debugged a live lock in handle_edge_irq()
related to interrupt migration.
If the interrupt affinity is moved to a new target CPU and the interrupt is
currently handled on the previous target CPU for edge type interrupts the
handler might get stuck on the previous target:
CPU 0 (previous target) CPU 1 (new target)
handle_edge_irq()
repeat:
handle_event() handle_edge_irq()
if (INPROGESS) {
set(PENDING);
mask();
return;
}
if (PENDING) {
clear(PENDING);
unmask();
goto repeat;
}
The migration in software never completes and CPU0 continues to handle the
pending events forever. This happens when the device raises interrupts with
a high rate and always before handle_event() completes and before the CPU0
handler can clear INPROGRESS so that CPU1 sets the PENDING flag over and
over. This has been observed in virtual machines.
Prevent this by checking whether the CPU which observes the INPROGRESS flag
is the new affinity target. If that's the case, do not set the PENDING flag
and wait for the INPROGRESS flag to be cleared instead, so that the new
interrupt is handled on the new target CPU and the previous CPU is released
from the action.
This is restricted to the edge type handler and only utilized on systems,
which use single CPU targets for interrupt affinity.

drivers
Most drivers only populate the fields cycles and cs_id of system_counterval
in their get_time_fn() callback for get_device_system_crosststamp(), unless
they explicitly provide nanosecond values.
When the use_nsecs field was added to struct system_counterval, most
drivers did not care. Clock sources other than CSID_GENERIC could then get
converted in convert_base_to_cs() based on an uninitialized use_nsecs field,
which usually results in -EINVAL during the following range check.
Pass in a fully zero initialized system_counterval_t to cure that.

The synchronization of CPU offlining with GP initialization is confusing
to put it mildly (rightfully so as the issue it deals with is complex).
Recent discussions brought up a question -- what prevents the
rcu_implicit_dyntick_qs() from warning about QS reports for offline
CPUs (missing QS reports for offline CPUs causing indefinite hangs).
QS reporting for now-offline CPUs should only happen from:
- gp_init()
- rcutree_cpu_report_dead()
Add some documentation on this and refer to it from comments in the code
explaining how QS reporting is not missed when these functions are
concurrently running.
I referred heavily to this post [1] about the need for the ofl_lock.
