The default NR_CPUS can be very large, but actual possible nr_cpu_ids usually is very small. For my x86 distribution, the NR_CPUS is 8192 and nr_cpu_ids is 4. About 2 pages are wasted. Most machines don't have so many CPUs, so define a array with NR_CPUS just wastes memory. So let's allocate the buffer dynamically when need. With this change, the mutext tracing_cpumask_update_lock also can be removed now, which was used to protect mask_str.

traceprobe_probes_write() and traceprobe_command() actually contain nothing that ties them to kprobes - the code is generically useful for similar types of parsing elsewhere, so separate it out and move it to trace.c/trace.h. Other than moving it, the only change is in naming: traceprobe_probes_write() becomes trace_parse_run_command() and traceprobe_command() becomes trace_run_command().

In order to make future changes where we need to call tracing_set_clock() from within an event command, the order of trace_types_lock and event_mutex must be reversed, as the event command will hold event_mutex and the trace_types_lock is taken from within tracing_set_clock().

When reading data from trace_pipe, tracing_wait_pipe() performs a check to see if tracing has been turned off after some data was read. Currently, this check always looks at global trace state, but it should be checking the trace instance where trace_pipe is located at. Because of this bug, cat instances/i1/trace_pipe in the following script will immediately exit instead of waiting for data: cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing echo 0 > tracing_on mkdir -p instances/i1 echo 1 > instances/i1/tracing_on echo 1 > instances/i1/events/sched/sched_process_exec/enable cat instances/i1/trace_pipe Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170917102348.1615-1-tahsin@google.com Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 10246fa3 ("tracing: give easy way to clear trace buffer") Signed-off-by: Tahsin Erdogan <tahsin@google.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

One convenient way to erase trace is "echo > trace". However, this is currently broken if the current tracer is irqsoff tracer. This is because irqsoff tracer use max_buffer as the default trace buffer. Set the max_buffer as the one to be cleared when it's the trace buffer currently in use.

Currently trace_clock timestamps are applied to both regular and max buffers only for global trace. For instance trace, trace_clock timestamps are applied only to regular buffer. But, regular and max buffers can be swapped, for example, following a snapshot. So, for instance trace, bad timestamps can be seen following a snapshot. Let's apply trace_clock timestamps to instance max buffer as well.

trace_printk() uses 4 buffers, one for each context (normal, softirq, irq and NMI), such that it does not need to worry about one context preempting the other. There's a nesting counter that gets incremented to figure out which buffer to use. If the context gets preempted by another context which calls trace_printk() it will increment the counter and use the next buffer, and restore the counter when it is finished. The problem is that gcc may optimize the modification of the buffer nesting counter and it may not be incremented in memory before the buffer is used. If this happens, and the context gets interrupted by another context, it could pick the same buffer and corrupt the one that is being used. Compiler barriers need to be added after the nesting variable is incremented and before it is decremented to prevent usage of the context buffers by more than one context at the same time.

Currently, when a module event is enabled, when that module is removed, it clears all ring buffers. This is to prevent another module from being loaded and having one of its trace event IDs from reusing a trace event ID of the removed module. This could cause undesirable effects as the trace event of the new module would be using its own processing algorithms to process raw data of another event. To prevent this, when a module is loaded, if any of its events have been used (signified by the WAS_ENABLED event call flag, which is never cleared), all ring buffers are cleared, just in case any one of them contains event data of the removed event. The problem is, there's no reason to clear all ring buffers if only one (or less than all of them) uses one of the events. Instead, only clear the ring buffers that recorded the events of a module that is being removed. To do this, instead of keeping the WAS_ENABLED flag with the trace event call, move it to the per instance (per ring buffer) event file descriptor. The event file descriptor maps each event to a separate ring buffer instance. Then when the module is removed, only the ring buffers that activated one of the module's events get cleared. The rest are not touched. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Chunyu Hu reported: "per_cpu trace directories and files are created for all possible cpus, but only the cpus which have ever been on-lined have their own per cpu ring buffer (allocated by cpuhp threads). While trace_buffers_open, the open handler for trace file 'trace_pipe_raw' is always trying to access field of ring_buffer_per_cpu, and would panic with the NULL pointer. Align the behavior of trace_pipe_raw with trace_pipe, that returns -NODEV when openning it if that cpu does not have trace ring buffer. Reproduce: cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/per_cpu/cpu31/trace_pipe_raw (cpu31 is never on-lined, this is a 16 cores x86_64 box) Tested with: 1) boot with maxcpus=14, read trace_pipe_raw of cpu15. Got -NODEV. 2) oneline cpu15, read trace_pipe_raw of cpu15. Get the raw trace data. Call trace: [ 5760.950995] RIP: 0010:ring_buffer_alloc_read_page+0x32/0xe0 [ 5760.961678] tracing_buffers_read+0x1f6/0x230 [ 5760.962695] __vfs_read+0x37/0x160 [ 5760.963498] ? __vfs_read+0x5/0x160 [ 5760.964339] ? security_file_permission+0x9d/0xc0 [ 5760.965451] ? __vfs_read+0x5/0x160 [ 5760.966280] vfs_read+0x8c/0x130 [ 5760.967070] SyS_read+0x55/0xc0 [ 5760.967779] do_syscall_64+0x67/0x150 [ 5760.968687] entry_SYSCALL64_slow_path+0x25/0x25" This was introduced by the addition of the feature to reuse reader pages instead of re-allocating them. The problem is that the allocation of a reader page (which is per cpu) does not check if the cpu is online and set up for the ring buffer.

The clear_boot_tracer function is used to reset the default_bootup_tracer string to prevent it from being accessed after boot, as it originally points to init data. But since clear_boot_tracer() is called via the init_lateinit() call, it races with the initcall for registering the hwlat tracer. If someone adds "ftrace=hwlat" to the kernel command line, depending on how the linker sets up the text, the saved command line may be cleared, and the hwlat tracer never is initialized. Simply have the clear_boot_tracer() be called by initcall_lateinit_sync() as that's for tasks to be called after lateinit.

The addition of TGID to the tracing header added a check to see if TGID shoudl be displayed or not, and updated the header accordingly. Unfortunately, it broke the default header.

When doing the following command: # echo ":mod:kvm_intel" > /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter it triggered a crash. This happened with the clean up of probes. It required all callers to the regex function (doing ftrace filtering) to have ops->private be a pointer to a trace_array. But for the stack tracer, that is not the case. Allow for the ops->private to be NULL, and change the function command callbacks to handle the trace_array pointer being NULL as well.

Inorder to support recording of tgid, the following changes are made: * Introduce a new API (tracing_record_taskinfo) to additionally record the tgid along with the task's comm at the same time. This has has the benefit of not setting trace_cmdline_save before all the information for a task is saved. * Add a new API tracing_record_taskinfo_sched_switch to record task information for 2 tasks at a time (previous and next) and use it from sched_switch probe. * Preserve the old API (tracing_record_cmdline) and create it as a wrapper around the new one so that existing callers aren't affected. * Reuse the existing sched_switch and sched_wakeup probes to record tgid information and add a new option 'record-tgid' to enable recording of tgid When record-tgid option isn't enabled to being with, we take care to make sure that there's isn't memory or runtime overhead.

It appears that synchronize_rcu_tasks() is not set up at early_initcall(), but it is at core_initcall(). By moving the tests down to that location works out properly.

Strcpy is inherently not safe, and strlcpy() should be used instead. __trace_find_cmdline() uses strcpy() because the comms saved must have a terminating nul character, but it doesn't hurt to add the extra protection of using strlcpy() instead of strcpy().

When reading the ring buffer for consuming, it is optimized for splice, where a page is taken out of the ring buffer (zero copy) and sent to the reading consumer. When the read is finished with the page, it calls ring_buffer_free_read_page(), which simply frees the page. The next time the reader needs to get a page from the ring buffer, it must call ring_buffer_alloc_read_page() which allocates and initializes a reader page for the ring buffer to be swapped into the ring buffer for a new filled page for the reader. The problem is that there's no reason to actually free the page when it is passed back to the ring buffer. It can hold it off and reuse it for the next iteration. This completely removes the interaction with the page_alloc mechanism. Using the trace-cmd utility to record all events (causing trace-cmd to require reading lots of pages from the ring buffer, and calling ring_buffer_alloc/free_read_page() several times), and also assigning a stack trace trigger to the mm_page_alloc event, we can see how many times the ring_buffer_alloc_read_page() needed to allocate a page for the ring buffer. Before this change: # trace-cmd record -e all -e mem_page_alloc -R stacktrace sleep 1 # trace-cmd report |grep ring_buffer_alloc_read_page | wc -l 9968 After this change: # trace-cmd record -e all -e mem_page_alloc -R stacktrace sleep 1 # trace-cmd report |grep ring_buffer_alloc_read_page | wc -l 4 Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
