blktrace: fix pdu_len when tracing packet command requests
Impact: output all of packet commands - not just the first 4 / 8 bytes
Since commit
d7e3c3249ef23b4617393c69fe464765b4ff1645 ("block: add
large command support"), struct request->cmd has been changed from
unsinged char cmd[BLK_MAX_CDB] to unsigned char *cmd.
v1 -> v2: by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp>
- make sure rq->cmd_len is always intialized, and then we can use
rq->cmd_len instead of BLK_MAX_CDB.

blktrace: fix blk_probes_ref chaos
Impact: fix mixed ioctl and ftrace-plugin blktrace use refcount bugs
ioctl-based blktrace allocates bt and registers tracepoints when
ioctl(BLKTRACESETUP), and do all cleanups when ioctl(BLKTRACETEARDOWN).
while ftrace-based blktrace allocates/frees bt when:
# echo 1/0 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/trace/enable
and registers/unregisters tracepoints when:
# echo blk/nop > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
or
# echo 1/0 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_enable
The separatation of allocation and registeration causes 2 problems:
1. current user-space blktrace still calls ioctl(TEARDOWN) when
ioctl(SETUP) failed:
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/trace/enable
# blktrace /dev/sda
BLKTRACESETUP: Device or resource busy
^C
and now blk_probes_ref == -1
2. Another way to make blk_probes_ref == -1:
# plugin sdb && mount sdb1
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sdb/sdb1/trace/enable
# remove sdb
This patch does the allocation and registeration when writing
sdaX/trace/enable.

tracing: fix memory leak in trace_stat
If the function profiler does not have any items recorded and one were
to cat the function stat file, the kernel would take a BUG with a NULL
pointer dereference.
Looking further into this, I found that returning NULL from stat_start
did not stop the stat logic, and would later call stat_next. This breaks
from the way seq_file works, so I looked into fixing the stat code.
This is where I noticed that the last next_entry is never freed.
It is allocated, and if the stat_next returns NULL, the code breaks out
of the loop, unlocks the mutex and exits. We never link the next_entry
nor do we free it. Thus it is a real memory leak.
This patch rearranges the code a bit to not only fix the memory leak,
but also to act more like seq_file where nothing is printed if there
is nothing to print. That is, stat_start returns NULL.

Sometimes one can observe an imbalance in the traces between function
calls and function return traces:

The curly brace inside func1() is the return of another function nested
inside func1. The return trace have been inserted in the buffer but not
the entry.
We are storing a return address on the function traces stack while we
haven't inserted its entry on the buffer, hence the imbalance on the
traces.
This is because the tracers doesn't check all failures that can happen
on buffer insertion.
This patch reports the tracing recursion failures and the ring buffer

tracing: Fix TRACING_SUPPORT dependency for PPC32
commit
40ada30f9621fbd831ac2437b9a2a399aa ("tracing: clean up menu"),
despite the "clean up" in its purpose, introduced a behavioural
change for Kconfig symbols: we no longer able to select tracing
support on PPC32 (because IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT isn't yet implemented).
The IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT is not mandatory for most tracers, tracing core
has a special case for platforms w/o irqflags (which, by the way, has
become useless as of the commit above).
Though according to Ingo Molnar, there was periodic build failures on
weird, unmaintained architectures that had no irqflags-tracing support
and hence didn't know the raw_irqs_save/restore primitives. Thus we'd
better not enable irqflags-less tracing for all architectures.
This patch restores the old behaviour for PPC32, and thus brings the
tracing back. Other architectures can either add themselves to the
exception list or (better) implement TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT.

This patch adds per-event filtering to the event tracing subsystem.
It adds a 'filter' debugfs file to each event directory. This file can
be written to to set filters; reading from it will display the current
set of filters set for that event.
Basically, any field listed in the 'format' file for an event can be
filtered on (including strings, but not yet other array types) using
either matching ('==') or non-matching ('!=') 'predicates'. A
'predicate' can be either a single expression:
# echo pid != 0 > filter
# cat filter
pid != 0
or a compound expression of up to 8 sub-expressions combined using '&&'
or '||':
# echo comm == Xorg > filter
# echo "&& sig != 29" > filter
# cat filter
comm == Xorg
&& sig != 29
Only events having field values matching an expression will be available
in the trace output; non-matching events are discarded.
Note that a compound expression is built up by echoing each
sub-expression separately - it's not the most efficient way to do
things, but it keeps the parser simple and assumes that compound
expressions will be relatively uncommon. In any case, a subsequent
patch introducing a way to set filters for entire subsystems should
mitigate any need to do this for lots of events.
Setting a filter without an '&&' or '||' clears the previous filter
completely and sets the filter to the new expression:
# cat filter
comm == Xorg
&& sig != 29
# echo comm != Xorg
# cat filter
comm != Xorg
To clear a filter, echo 0 to the filter file:
# echo 0 > filter
# cat filter
none
The limit of 8 predicates for a compound expression is arbitrary - for
efficiency, it's implemented as an array of pointers to predicates, and
8 seemed more than enough for any filter...

tracing/function-graph-tracer: prevent hangs during self-tests
Impact: detect tracing related hangs
Sometimes, with some configs, the function graph tracer can make
the timer interrupt too much slow, hanging the kernel in an endless
loop of timer interrupts servicing.
As suggested by Ingo, this patch brings a watchdog which stops the
selftest after a defined number of functions traced, definitely
disabling this tracer.
For those who want to debug the cause of the function graph trace
hang, you can pass the ftrace_dump_on_oops kernel parameter to dump
the traces after this hang detection.

tracing/ring-buffer: don't annotate rb_cpu_notify with __cpuinit

CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH raises the following warning on -tip:
WARNING: kernel/trace/built-in.o(.text+0x5bc5): Section mismatch in
reference from the function ring_buffer_alloc() to the function
.cpuinit.text:rb_cpu_notify()
The function ring_buffer_alloc() references
the function __cpuinit rb_cpu_notify().
This is actually harmless. The code in the ring buffer don't build
rb_cpu_notify and other cpu hotplug stuffs when !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
so we have no risk to reference freed memory here (it would even
be harmless if we unconditionally build it because register_cpu_notifier
would do nothing when !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.
But since ring_buffer_alloc() can be called everytime, we don't want it
to be annotated with __cpuinit so we drop the __cpuinit from
rb_cpu_notify.
This is not a waste of memory because it is only defined and used on
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

aio: lookup_ioctx can return the wrong value when looking up a bogus context
The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a

Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process
exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio
(since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0).

tracing/ring-buffer: fix non cpu hotplug case
Impact: fix warning with irqsoff tracer
The ring buffer allocates its buffers on pre-smp time (early_initcall).
It means that, at first, only the boot cpu buffer is allocated and
the ring-buffer cpumask only has the boot cpu set (cpu_online_mask).
Later, the secondary cpu will show up and the ring-buffer will be notified
about this event: the appropriate buffer will be allocated and the cpumask
will be updated.
Unfortunately, if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG, the ring-buffer will not be
notified about the secondary cpus, meaning that the cpumask will have
only the cpu boot set, and only one cpu buffer allocated.
We fix that by using cpu_possible_mask if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG.

ftrace: protect running nmi (V3)
When I review the sensitive code ftrace_nmi_enter(), I found
the atomic variable nmi_running does protect NMI VS do_ftrace_mod_code(),
but it can not protects NMI(entered nmi) VS NMI(ftrace_nmi_enter()).
cpu#1 | cpu#2 | cpu#3
ftrace_nmi_enter() | do_ftrace_mod_code() |
not modify | |
------------------------|-----------------------|--
executing | set mod_code_write = 1|
executing --|-----------------------|--------------------
executing | | ftrace_nmi_enter()
executing | | do modify
------------------------|-----------------------|-----------------
ftrace_nmi_exit() | |
cpu#3 may be being modified the code which is still being executed on cpu#1,
it will have undefined results and possibly take a GPF, this patch
prevents it occurred.
