Allow kprobe-events to record module symbols. Since data symbols in a non-loaded module doesn't exist, it fails to define such symbol as an argument of kprobe-event. But if the kprobe event is defined on that module, we can defer to resolve the symbol address. Note that if given symbol is not found, the event is kept unavailable. User can enable it but the event is not recorded.

Current kprobe event doesn't checks correctly whether the given event is on unloaded module or not. It just checks the event has ":" in the name. That is not enough because if we define a probe on non-exist symbol on loaded module, it allows to define that (with warning message) To ensure it correctly, this searches the module name on loaded module list and only if there is not, it allows to define it. (this event will be available when the target module is loaded) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/153547309528.26502.8300278470528281328.stgit@devboxSigned-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Fix probe_mem_read() to return -EFAULT if copy_from_user() failed. The copy_from_user() returns remaining bytes when it failed, but probe_mem_read() caller expects it returns error code like as probe_kernel_read().

Add $argN special fetch variable for accessing function arguments. This allows user to trace the Nth argument easily at the function entry. Note that this returns most probably assignment of registers and stacks. In some case, it may not work well. If you need to access correct registers or stacks you should use perf-probe.

Add regs_get_argument() which returns N th argument of the function call. Note that this chooses most probably assignment, in some case it can be incorrect (e.g. passing data structure or floating point etc.) This is expected to be called from kprobes or ftrace with regs where the top of stack is the return address.

Add array type support for probe events. This allows user to get arraied types from memory address. The array type syntax is TYPE[N] Where TYPE is one of types (u8/16/32/64,s8/16/32/64, x8/16/32/64, symbol, string) and N is a fixed value less than 64. The string array type is a bit different from other types. For other base types, <base-type>[1] is equal to <base-type> (e.g. +0(%di):x32[1] is same as +0(%di):x32.) But string[1] is not equal to string. The string type itself represents "char array", but string array type represents "char * array". So, for example, +0(%di):string[1] is equal to +0(+0(%di)):string.

Replace {k,u}probe event argument fetching framework with switch-case based. Currently that is implemented with structures, macros and chain of function-pointers, which is more complicated than necessary and may get a performance penalty by retpoline. This simplify that with an array of "fetch_insn" (opcode and oprands), and make process_fetch_insn() just interprets it. No function pointers are used.

We assume to have only one reference counter for one uprobe. Don't allow user to add multiple trace_uprobe entries having same inode+offset but different reference counter. Ex, # echo "p:sdt_tick/loop2 /home/ravi/tick:0x6e4(0x10036)" > uprobe_events # echo "p:sdt_tick/loop2_1 /home/ravi/tick:0x6e4(0xfffff)" >> uprobe_events bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # dmesg trace_kprobe: Reference counter offset mismatch. There is one exception though: When user is trying to replace the old entry with the new one, we allow this if the new entry does not conflict with any other existing entries.

Userspace Statically Defined Tracepoints[1] are dtrace style markers inside userspace applications. Applications like PostgreSQL, MySQL, Pthread, Perl, Python, Java, Ruby, Node.js, libvirt, QEMU, glib etc have these markers embedded in them. These markers are added by developer at important places in the code. Each marker source expands to a single nop instruction in the compiled code but there may be additional overhead for computing the marker arguments which expands to couple of instructions. In case the overhead is more, execution of it can be omitted by runtime if() condition when no one is tracing on the marker: if (reference_counter > 0) { Execute marker instructions; } Default value of reference counter is 0. Tracer has to increment the reference counter before tracing on a marker and decrement it when done with the tracing. Implement the reference counter logic in core uprobe. User will be able to use it from trace_uprobe as well as from kernel module. New trace_uprobe definition with reference counter will now be: <path>:<offset>[(ref_ctr_offset)] where ref_ctr_offset is an optional field. For kernel module, new variant of uprobe_register() has been introduced: uprobe_register_refctr(inode, offset, ref_ctr_offset, consumer) No new variant for uprobe_unregister() because it's assumed to have only one reference counter for one uprobe. [1] https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/UserSpaceProbeImplementation Note: 'reference counter' is called as 'semaphore' in original Dtrace (or Systemtap, bcc and even in ELF) documentation and code. But the term 'semaphore' is misleading in this context. This is just a counter used to hold number of tracers tracing on a marker. This is not really used for any synchronization. So we are calling it a 'reference counter' in kernel / perf code.

Klaus Kusche reported that the I/O busy time in /proc/diskstats was not updating properly on 4.18. This is because we started using ktime to track elapsed time, and we convert nanoseconds to jiffies when we update the partition counter. However, this gets rounded down, so any I/Os that take less than a jiffy are not accounted for. Previously in this case, the value of jiffies would sometimes increment while we were doing I/O, so at least some I/Os were accounted for. Let's convert the stats to use nanoseconds internally. We still report milliseconds as before, now more accurately than ever. The value is still truncated to 32 bits for backwards compatibility.

We met a kernel panic when enabling earlycon, which is due to the fixmap address of earlycon is not statically setup. Currently the static fixmap setup in head_64.S only covers 2M virtual address space, while it actually could be in 4M space with different kernel configurations, e.g. when VSYSCALL emulation is disabled. So increase the static space to 4M for now by defining FIXMAP_PMD_NUM to 2, and add a build time check to ensure that the fixmap is covered by the initial static page tables.

While reading block, it is possible that io error return due to underlying storage issue, in this case, BH_NeedsValidate was left in the buffer head. Then when reading the very block next time, if it was already linked into journal, that will trigger the following panic. [203748.702517] kernel BUG at fs/ocfs2/buffer_head_io.c:342!

9092c71b ("mm: use sc->priority for slab shrink targets") changed the way that the target slab pressure is calculated and made it priority-based: delta = freeable >> priority; delta *= 4; do_div(delta, shrinker->seeks); The problem is that on a default priority (which is 12) no pressure is applied at all, if the number of potentially reclaimable objects is less than 4096 (1<<12). This causes the last objects on slab caches of no longer used cgroups to (almost) never get reclaimed. It's obviously a waste of memory. It can be especially painful, if these stale objects are holding a reference to a dying cgroup. Slab LRU lists are reparented on memcg offlining, but corresponding objects are still holding a reference to the dying cgroup. If we don't scan these objects, the dying cgroup can't go away. Most likely, the parent cgroup hasn't any directly charged objects, only remaining objects from dying children cgroups. So it can easily hold a reference to hundreds of dying cgroups. If there are no big spikes in memory pressure, and new memory cgroups are created and destroyed periodically, this causes the number of dying cgroups grow steadily, causing a slow-ish and hard-to-detect memory "leak". It's not a real leak, as the memory can be eventually reclaimed, but it could not happen in a real life at all. I've seen hosts with a steadily climbing number of dying cgroups, which doesn't show any signs of a decline in months, despite the host is loaded with a production workload. It is an obvious waste of memory, and to prevent it, let's apply a minimal pressure even on small shrinker lists. E.g. if there are freeable objects, let's scan at least min(freeable, scan_batch) objects. This fix significantly improves a chance of a dying cgroup to be reclaimed, and together with some previous patches stops the steady growth of the dying cgroups number on some of our hosts.
