Pull tracepoint cleanup from Steven Rostedt:
"Remove or hide unused tracepoints
Tracepoints take up memory (around 5K per tracepoint) even when they
are unused. Changes are being made to detect when a tracepoint is
defined but unused and a warning is shown at build. But those changes
are not yet ready for inclusion.
- Fix some of the unused tracepoints that it detected
Some tracepoints were removed and others were hidden by config
settings to match the config settings of where they are
instantiated. Some tracepoints were moved into architecture
specific code as only one architecture used them.
- Call the ftrace_test_filter tracepoint in an unreachable if
statement
The ftrace_test_filter tracepoint which is defined when ftrace
selftests are configured and is used to test the filter logic, but
the tracepoint is not actually called. It is put into an if
statement to not have it get compiled out, but also not warn for
not being used"

Pull runtime verification updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Added Linear temporal logic monitors for RT application
Real-time applications may have design flaws causing them to have
unexpected latency. For example, the applications may raise page
faults, or may be blocked trying to take a mutex without priority
inheritance.
However, while attempting to implement DA monitors for these
real-time rules, deterministic automaton is found to be inappropriate
as the specification language. The automaton is complicated, hard to
understand, and error-prone.
For these cases, linear temporal logic is found to be more suitable.
The LTL is more concise and intuitive.
- Make printk_deferred() public
The new monitors needed access to printk_deferred(). Make them
visible for the entire kernel.
- Add a vpanic() to allow for va_list to be passed to panic.
- Add rtapp container monitor.
A collection of monitors that check for common problems with
real-time applications that cause unexpected latency.
- Add page fault tracepoints to risc-v
These tracepoints are necessary to for the RV monitor to run on
risc-v.
- Fix the behaviour of the rv tool with -s and idle tasks.
- Allow the rv tool to gracefully terminate with SIGTERM
- Adjusts dot2c not to create lines over 100 columns
- Properly order nested monitors in the RV Kconfig file
- Return the registration error in all DA monitor instead of 0
- Update and add new sched collection monitors
Replace tss and sncid monitors with more complete sts:
Not only prove that switches occur in scheduling context and scheduling
needs interrupt disabled but also that each call to the scheduler
disables interrupts to (optionally) switch.
New monitor: nrp
Preemption requires need resched which is cleared by any switch
(includes a non optimal workaround for /nested/ preemptions)
New monitor: sssw
suspension requires setting the task to sleepable and, after the
switch occurs, the task requires a wakeup to come back to runnable
New monitor: opid
waking and need-resched operations occur with interrupts and
preemption disabled or in IRQ without explicitly disabling
preemption"

Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Rewind persistent ring buffer on boot
When the persistent ring buffer is being used for live kernel tracing
and the system crashes, the tool that is reading the trace may not
have recorded the data when the system crashed.
Although the persistent ring buffer still has that data, when reading
it after a reboot, it will start where it left off. That is, what was
read will not be accessible.
Instead, on reboot, have the persistent ring buffer restart where the
data starts and this will allow the tooling to recover what was lost
when the crash occurred.
- Remove the ring_buffer_read_prepare_sync() logic
Reading the trace file required stopping writing to the ring buffer
as the trace file is only an iterator and does not consume what it
read. It was originally not safe to read the ring buffer in this mode
and required disabling writing. The ring_buffer_read_prepare_sync()
logic was used to stop each per_cpu ring buffer, call
synchronize_rcu() and then start the iterator. This was used instead
of calling synchronize_rcu() for each per_cpu buffer.
Today, the iterator has been updated where it is safe to read the
trace file while writing to the ring buffer is still occurring. There
is no more need to do this synchronization and it is causing large
delays on machines with many CPUs. Remove this unneeded
synchronization.
- Make static string array a constant in show_irq_str()
Making the string array into a constant has shown to decrease code
text/data size.

Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Keep track of when fgraph_ops are registered or not
Keep accounting of when fgraph_ops are registered as if a fgraph_ops
is registered twice it can mess up the accounting and it will not
work as expected later. Trigger a warning if something registers it
twice as to catch bugs before they are found by things just not
working as expected.
- Make DYNAMIC_FTRACE always enabled for architectures that support it
As static ftrace (where all functions are always traced) is very
expensive and only exists to help architectures support ftrace, do
not make it an option. As soon as an architecture supports
DYNAMIC_FTRACE make it use it. This simplifies the code.
- Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD
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.
- Make pid_ptr string size match the comment
In print_graph_proc() the pid_ptr string is of size 11, but the
comment says /* sign + log10(MAX_INT) + '\0' */ which is actually 12.

Since preempt_count_add/del() are tracable functions, it is not allowed
to use preempt_disable/enable() in ftrace handlers. Without this fix,
probing on `preempt_count_add%return` will cause an infinite recursion
of fprobes.
To fix this problem, use preempt_disable/enable_notrace() in
fprobe_return().

DA monitor can be accessed from multiple cores simultaneously, this is
likely, for instance when dealing with per-task monitors reacting on
events that do not always occur on the CPU where the task is running.
This can cause race conditions where two events change the next state
and we see inconsistent values. E.g.:
[62] event_srs: 27: sleepable x sched_wakeup -> running (final)
[63] event_srs: 27: sleepable x sched_set_state_sleepable -> sleepable
[63] error_srs: 27: event sched_switch_suspend not expected in the state running
In this case the monitor fails because the event on CPU 62 wins against
the one on CPU 63, although the correct state should have been
sleepable, since the task get suspended.
Detect if the current state was modified by using try_cmpxchg while
storing the next value. If it was, try again reading the current state.
After a maximum number of failed retries, react by calling a special
tracepoint, print on the console and reset the monitor.
Remove the functions da_monitor_curr_state() and da_monitor_set_state()
as they only hide the underlying implementation in this case.
Monitors where this type of condition can occur must be able to account
for racing events in any possible order, as we cannot know the winner.

on PREEMPT_TRACER and IRQSOFF_TRACER. In fact, those configurations do
enable the tracepoints but are not the minimal configurations enabling
them, which are TRACE_PREEMPT_TOGGLE and TRACE_IRQFLAGS (not selectable
manually).

Using DA monitors tracepoints with KASAN enabled triggers the following
warning:
BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in do_trace_event_raw_event_event_da_monitor+0xd6/0x1a0

Call Trace:

trace_event_sncid+0x163/0x200
[...]
The buggy address belongs to the variable:
automaton_snep+0x4e0/0x5e0
This is caused by the tracepoints reading 32 bytes __array instead of
__string from the automata definition. Such strings are literals and
reading 32 bytes ends up in out of bound memory accesses (e.g. the next
automaton's data in this case).
The error is harmless as, while printing the string, we stop at the null
terminator, but it should still be fixed.
Use the __string facilities while defining the tracepoints to avoid
reading out of bound memory.

RV event tracepoints print a line with the format:
"event_xyz: S0 x event -> S1 "
"event_xyz: S1 x event -> S0 (final)"
While printing an event leading to a non-final state, the line
has a trailing white space (visible above before the closing ").
Adapt the format string not to print the trailing whitespace if we are
not printing "(final)".

Argument 'p' of reactors_show() and monitor_reactor_show() is not a pointer
to struct rv_reactor, it is actually a pointer to the list_head inside
struct rv_reactor. Therefore it's wrong to cast 'p' to struct rv_reactor *.
This wrong type cast has been there since the beginning. But it still
worked because the list_head was the first field in struct rv_reactor_def.
This is no longer true since commit 3d3c376118b5 ("rv: Merge struct
rv_reactor_def into struct rv_reactor") moved the list_head, and this wrong
type cast became a functional problem.
Properly use container_of() instead.

rv_reactor has a reference counter to ensure it is not removed while
monitors are still using it.
However, this is futile, as __exit functions are not expected to fail and
will proceed normally despite rv_unregister_reactor() returning an error.
At the moment, reactors do not support being built as modules, therefore
they are never removed and the reference counters are not necessary.
If we support building RV reactors as modules in the future, kernel
module's centralized facilities such as try_module_get(), module_put() or
MODULE_SOFTDEP should be used instead of this custom implementation.
Remove this reference counter.

Each struct rv_reactor has a unique struct rv_reactor_def associated with
it. struct rv_reactor is statically allocated, while struct rv_reactor_def
is dynamically allocated.
This makes the code more complicated than it should be:
- Lookup is required to get the associated rv_reactor_def from rv_reactor
- Dynamic memory allocation is required for rv_reactor_def. This is
harder to get right compared to static memory. For instance, there is
an existing mistake: rv_unregister_reactor() does not free the memory
allocated by rv_register_reactor(). This is fortunately not a real
memory leak problem as rv_unregister_reactor() is never called.
Simplify and merge rv_reactor_def into rv_reactor.

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.

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 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.

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.

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

Remove the synchronization and put back the interface for the ring buffer
iterator back before commit 72c9ddfd4c5bf was applied.

As the trace event powernv_throttle is only used by the powernv code, move
it to a separate include file and have that code directly enable it.
Trace events can take up around 5K of memory when they are defined
regardless if they are used or not. It wastes memory to have them defined
in configurations where the tracepoint is not used.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix timerlat with use of FORTIFY_SOURCE
FORTIFY_SOURCE was added to the stack tracer where it compares the
entry->caller array to having entry->size elements.
timerlat has the following:
memcpy(&entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);
entry->size = size;
Which triggers FORTIFY_SOURCE as the caller is populated before the
entry->size is initialized.
Swap the order to satisfy FORTIFY_SOURCE logic.
- Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace events in modules
Trace events being added to the ftrace_events array are protected by
the trace_event_sem semaphore. But when loading modules that have
trace events, the addition of the events are not protected by the
semaphore and loading two modules that have events at the same time
can corrupt the list.
Also add a lockdep_assert_held(trace_event_sem) to
_trace_add_event_dirs() to confirm it is held when iterating the
list.

tracing: Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace event
tracing/osnoise: Fix crash in timerlat_dump_stack()

When a module is loaded, it adds trace events defined by the module. It
may also need to modify the modules trace printk formats to replace enum
names with their values.
If two modules are loaded at the same time, the adding of the event to the
ftrace_events list can corrupt the walking of the list in the code that is
modifying the printk format strings and crash the kernel.
The addition of the event should take the trace_event_sem for write while
it adds the new event.
Also add a lockdep_assert_held() on that semaphore in
__trace_add_event_dirs() as it iterates the list.

We have observed kernel panics when using timerlat with stack saving,
with the following dmesg output:

__timerlat_dump_stack() constructs the ftrace stack entry like this:
struct stack_entry *entry;
...
memcpy(&entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);
entry->size = fstack->nr_entries;
Since commit e7186af7fb26 ("tracing: Add back FORTIFY_SOURCE logic to
kernel_stack event structure"), struct stack_entry marks its caller
field with __counted_by(size). At the time of the memcpy, entry->size
contains garbage from the ringbuffer, which under some circumstances is
zero, triggering a kernel panic by buffer overflow.
Populate the size field before the memcpy so that the out-of-bounds
check knows the correct size. This is analogous to
__ftrace_trace_stack().

After a recent change in clang to strengthen uninitialized warnings [1],
it points out that in one of the error paths in parse_btf_arg(), params
is used uninitialized:
kernel/trace/trace_probe.c:660:19: warning: variable 'params' is uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]
660 | return PTR_ERR(params);
| ^~~~~~
Match many other NO_BTF_ENTRY error cases and return -ENOENT, clearing
up the warning.
