Have the trace_array that associates the trace instance of the histogram
passed around to functions so that error handling can display the error
message in the proper instance.

Pass in the trace_array that represents the instance the filter being
changed is in to create_event_filter(). This will allow for error messages
that happen when writing to the filter can be displayed in the proper
instance "error_log" file.
Note, for calls to create_filter() (that was also modified to support
create_event_filter()), that changes filters that do not exist in a instance
(for perf for example), NULL may be passed in, which means that there will
not be any message to log for that filter.

gpio tracing was made configurable in 4.4-rc1 (commit ddd70280bf0e
("tracing: gpio: Add Kconfig option for enabling/disabling trace
events")). Since then it is the only event type that can be compiled
conditionally. Given that there is only little overhead I don't
understand the reasoning and I was annoyed more than once that gpio
events were not available without recompiling.
So drop the Kconfig symbol and make gpio events available
unconditionally.

At Linux Plumbers, Andy Lutomirski approached me and pointed out that the
function call syscall_get_arguments() implemented in x86 was horribly
written and not optimized for the standard case of passing in 0 and 6 for
the starting index and the number of system calls to get. When looking at
all the users of this function, I discovered that all instances pass in only
0 and 6 for these arguments. Instead of having this function handle
different cases that are never used, simply rewrite it to return the first 6
arguments of a system call.
This should help out the performance of tracing system calls by ptrace,
ftrace and perf.

The only users that calls syscall_get_arguments() with a variable and not a
hard coded '6' is ftrace_syscall_enter(). syscall_get_arguments() can be
optimized by removing a variable input, and always grabbing 6 arguments
regardless of what the system call actually uses.
Change ftrace_syscall_enter() to pass the 6 args into a local stack array
and copy the necessary arguments into the trace event as needed.
This is needed to remove two parameters from syscall_get_arguments().

(except for -ENOMEM), because user can see better error message

Introduce a new ftrace file, tracing/error_log, for ftrace commands to
log errors. This is useful for allowing more complex commands such as
hist trigger and kprobe_event commands to point out specifically where
something may have gone wrong without forcing them to resort to more
ad hoc methods such as tacking error messages onto existing output
files.
To log a tracing error, call the event_log_err() function, passing it
a location string describing where it came from e.g. kprobe_events or
system:event, the command that caused the error, an array of static
error strings describing errors and an index within that array which
describes the specific error, along with the position to place the
error caret.
Reading the log displays the last (currently) 8 errors logged in the
following format:
[timestamp] <loc>: error: <static error text>
Command: <command that caused the error>
^
Memory for the error log isn't allocated unless there has been a trace
event error, and the error log can be cleared and have its memory
freed by writing the empty string in truncation mode to it:
# echo > tracing/error_log.

Ftrace provides the feature “instances” that provides the capability to
create multiple Ftrace ring buffers. However, currently these buffers
are created/accessed via userspace only. The kernel APIs providing these
features are not exported, hence cannot be used by other kernel
components.
This patch aims to extend this infrastructure to provide the
flexibility to create/log/remove/ enable-disable existing trace events
to these buffers from within the kernel.

Commit 656fe2ba85e8 (tracing: Use hist trigger's var_ref array to
destroy var_refs) centralized the destruction of all the var_refs
in one place so that other code didn't have to do it.
The track_data_destroy() added later ignored that and also destroyed
the track_data var_ref, causing a double-free error flagged by KASAN.

As reported back in 2016-11 [1], the "ftdump" kdb command triggers a
BUG for "sleeping function called from invalid context".
kdb's "ftdump" command wants to call ring_buffer_read_prepare() in
atomic context. A very simple solution for this is to add allocation
flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare() so kdb can call it without
triggering the allocation error. This patch does that.
Note that in the original email thread about this, it was suggested
that perhaps the solution for kdb was to either preallocate the buffer
ahead of time or create our own iterator. I'm hoping that this
alternative of adding allocation flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare()
can be considered since it means I don't need to duplicate more of the
core trace code into "trace_kdb.c" (for either creating my own
iterator or re-preparing a ring allocator whose memory was already
allocated).
NOTE: another option for kdb is to actually figure out how to make it
reuse the existing ftrace_dump() function and totally eliminate the
duplication. This sounds very appealing and actually works (the "sr
z" command can be seen to properly dump the ftrace buffer). The
downside here is that ftrace_dump() fully consumes the trace buffer.
Unless that is changed I'd rather not use it because it means "ftdump
| grep xyz" won't be very useful to search the ftrace buffer since it
will throw away the whole trace on the first grep. A future patch to
dump only the last few lines of the buffer will also be hard to
implement.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"The biggest change for this release is in the histogram code:
- Add "onchange(var)" histogram handler that executes a action when
$var changes.
- Add new "snapshot()" action for histogram handlers, that causes a
snapshot of the ring buffer when triggered. ie.
onchange(var).snapshot() will trigger a snapshot if var changes.
- Add alternative for "trace()" action. Currently, to trigger a
synthetic event, the name of that event is used as the handler
name, which is inconsistent with the other actions.
onchange(var).synthetic(param) where it can now be
onchange(var).trace(synthetic, param). The older method will still
be allowed, as long as the synthetic events do not overlap with
other handler names.
- The histogram documentation at testcases were updated for the new
changes.
Outside of the histogram code, we have:
- Added a quicker way to enable set_ftrace_filter files, that will
make it much quicker to bisect tracing a function that shouldn't be
traced and crashes the kernel. (You can echo in numbers to
set_ftrace_filter, and it will select the corresponding function
that is in available_filter_functions).
- Some better displaying of the tracing data (and more information
was added).
The rest are small fixes and more clean ups to the code"

Pull tracing fix/cleanup from Steven Rostedt:
"This is a "pre-pull". It's only one small fix and one small clean up.
I'm testing a few small patches for my real pull request which will
come at a later time. The second patch depends on your tree anyway so
I included it along with the urgent fix.
A small fix Pavel sent me back in august was accidentally lost due to
it being placed with some other patches that failed some tests, and
was rebased out of my local tree. Which was a regression that caused
event filters not to handle negative numbers.
The clean up is from Masami that realized that the code in kprobes
that calls probe_mem_read() wrapper, which is to be used in code used
by both kprobes and uprobes, was only in code for kprobes. It should
not use the wrapper there, but instead call probe_kernel_read()
directly"

Because there may be random garbage beyond a string's null terminator,

Because there may be random garbage beyond a string's null terminator,
it's not correct to copy the the complete character array for use as a
hist trigger key. This results in multiple histogram entries for the
'same' string key.
So, in the case of a string key, use strncpy instead of memcpy to
avoid copying in the extra bytes.
Before, using the gdbus entries in the following hist trigger as an
example:
# echo 'hist:key=comm' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/hist

Then tracing syscall exit event it is extremely useful to filter exit
codes equal to some negative value, to react only to required errors.
But negative numbers does not work:
[root@snorch sys_exit_read]# echo "ret == -1" > filter
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
[root@snorch sys_exit_read]# cat filter
ret == -1
^
parse_error: Invalid value (did you forget quotes)?
Similar thing happens when setting triggers.
These is a regression in v4.17 introduced by the commit mentioned below,
testing without these commit shows no problem with negative numbers.

various false positives:
- commit e74fc973b6e5 ("Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized when building

- commit 815eb71e7149 ("Kbuild: disable 'maybe-uninitialized' warning

The first version of this method was missing the check for
`ret == PATH_MAX`; then such a check was added, but it didn't call kfree()
on error, so there was still a small memory leak in the error case.
Fix it by using strndup_user() instead of open-coding it.

Before setting tr->cond_snapshot, it must be NULL before it can be updated.
It can go to NULL when a trace event hist trigger is created or removed, and
can only be modified under the max_lock spin lock. But because it can only
be set to something other than NULL under both the max_lock spin lock as
well as the trace_types_lock, we can perform the check if it is not NULL
only under the trace_types_lock and fail out without having to grab the
max_lock spin lock.
This is very subtle, and deserves a comment.

Add a 'trace(synthetic_event_name, params)' alternative to
synthetic_event_name(params).
Currently, the syntax used for generating synthetic events is to
invoke synthetic_event_name(params) i.e. use the synthetic event name
as a function call.
Users requested a new form that more explicitly shows that the
synthetic event is in effect being traced. In this version, a new
'trace()' keyword is used, and the synthetic event name is passed in
as the first argument.
In addition, for the sake of consistency with other actions, change
the documention to emphasize the trace() form over the function-call
form, which remains documented as equivalent.

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.

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 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.
