commit db9108e054700c96322b0f0028546aa4e643cf0b upstream.
Hit the kmemleak when executing instance_rmdir, it forgot releasing
mem of tracing_cpumask. With this fix, the warn does not appear any
more.

commit c59f29cb144a6a0dfac16ede9dc8eafc02dc56ca upstream.
The 's' flag is supposed to indicate that a softirq is running. This
can be detected by testing the preempt_count with SOFTIRQ_OFFSET.
The current code tests the preempt_count with SOFTIRQ_MASK, which
would be true even when softirqs are disabled but not serving a
softirq.

commit df62db5be2e5f070ecd1a5ece5945b590ee112e0 upstream.
Currently the snapshot trigger enables the probe and then allocates the
snapshot. If the probe triggers before the allocation, it could cause the
snapshot to fail and turn tracing off. It's best to allocate the snapshot
buffer first, and then enable the trigger. If something goes wrong in the
enabling of the trigger, the snapshot buffer is still allocated, but it can
also be freed by the user by writting zero into the snapshot buffer file.
Also add a check of the return status of alloc_snapshot().

commit d879d0b8c183aabeb9a65eba91f3f9e3c7e7b905 upstream.
When function tracer has a pid filter, it adds a probe to sched_switch
to track if current task can be ignored. The probe checks the
ftrace_ignore_pid from current tr to filter tasks. But it misses to
delete the probe when removing an instance so that it can cause a crash
due to the invalid tr pointer (use-after-free).
This is easily reproducible with the following:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# mkdir instances/buggy
# echo $$ > instances/buggy/set_ftrace_pid
# rmdir instances/buggy
============================================================================

commit 93faccbbfa958a9668d3ab4e30f38dd205cee8d8 upstream.
To support unprivileged users mounting filesystems two permission
checks have to be performed: a test to see if the user allowed to
create a mount in the mount namespace, and a test to see if
the user is allowed to access the specified filesystem.
The automount case is special in that mounting the original filesystem
grants permission to mount the sub-filesystems, to any user who
happens to stumble across the their mountpoint and satisfies the
ordinary filesystem permission checks.
Attempting to handle the automount case by using override_creds
almost works. It preserves the idea that permission to mount
the original filesystem is permission to mount the sub-filesystem.
Unfortunately using override_creds messes up the filesystems
ordinary permission checks.
Solve this by being explicit that a mount is a submount by introducing
vfs_submount, and using it where appropriate.
vfs_submount uses a new mount internal mount flags MS_SUBMOUNT, to let
sget and friends know that a mount is a submount so they can take appropriate
action.
sget and sget_userns are modified to not perform any permission checks
on submounts.
follow_automount is modified to stop using override_creds as that
has proven problemantic.
do_mount is modified to always remove the new MS_SUBMOUNT flag so
that we know userspace will never by able to specify it.
autofs4 is modified to stop using current_real_cred that was put in
there to handle the previous version of submount permission checking.
cifs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to vfs_submount.
debugfs is modified to pass the mountpoint all of the way down to
trace_automount by adding a new parameter. To make this change easier
a new typedef debugfs_automount_t is introduced to capture the type of
the debugfs automount function.

Fixes: aeaa4a79ff6a ("fs: Call d_automount with the filesystems creds")

The hardware latency tracer has been in the PREEMPT_RT patch for some time.
It is used to detect possible SMIs or any other hardware interruptions that
the kernel is unaware of. Note, NMIs may also be detected, but that may be
good to note as well.
The logic is pretty simple. It simply creates a thread that spins on a
single CPU for a specified amount of time (width) within a periodic window
(window). These numbers may be adjusted by their cooresponding names in
/sys/kernel/tracing/hwlat_detector/
The defaults are window = 1000000 us (1 second)
width = 500000 us (1/2 second)
The loop consists of:
t1 = trace_clock_local();
t2 = trace_clock_local();
Where trace_clock_local() is a variant of sched_clock().
The difference of t2 - t1 is recorded as the "inner" timestamp and also the
timestamp t1 - prev_t2 is recorded as the "outer" timestamp. If either of
these differences are greater than the time denoted in
/sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_thresh then it records the event.
When this tracer is started, and tracing_thresh is zero, it changes to the
default threshold of 10 us.
The hwlat tracer in the PREEMPT_RT patch was originally written by
Jon Masters. I have modified it quite a bit and turned it into a
tracer.

Commit 345ddcc882d8 ("ftrace: Have set_ftrace_pid use the bitmap like events
do") placed ftrace_init_tracefs into the instance creation, and encapsulated
the top level updating with an if conditional, as the top level only gets
updated at boot up. Unfortunately, this triggers section mismatch errors as
the init functions are called from a function that can be called later, and
the section mismatch logic is unaware of the if conditional that would
prevent it from happening at run time.
To make everyone happy, create a separate ftrace_init_tracefs_toplevel()
routine that only gets called by init functions, and this will be what calls
other init functions for the toplevel directory.

The stacktrace trigger isn't as bad, because it adds its own skip to the
stacktracing, but still has two events extra.
One issue is that if the stacktrace passes its own "regs" then there should
be no addition to the skip, as the regs will not include the functions being
called. This was an issue that was fixed by commit 7717c6be6999 ("tracing:
Fix stacktrace skip depth in trace_buffer_unlock_commit_regs()" as adding
the skip number for kprobes made the probes not have any stack at all.
But since this is only an issue when regs is being used, a skip should be
added if regs is NULL. Now we have:
# echo 1 > options/stacktrace
# echo 1 > events/sched/sched_switch/enable
# cat trace
<idle>-0 [000] d..2 1297.676333: <stack trace>

Currently, the trace_printk code chooses which static buffer to use based
on what type of atomic context (NMI, IRQ, etc) it's in. Simplify the
code and make it more robust: simply count the nesting depth and choose
a buffer based on the current nesting depth.
The new code will only drop an event if we nest more than 4 deep,
and the old code was guaranteed to malfunction if that happened.

Filtering of events requires the data to be written to the ring buffer
before it can be decided to filter or not. This is because the parameters of
the filter are based on the result that is written to the ring buffer and
not on the parameters that are passed into the trace functions.
The ftrace ring buffer is optimized for writing into the ring buffer and
committing. The discard procedure used when filtering decides the event
should be discarded is much more heavy weight. Thus, using a temporary
filter when filtering events can speed things up drastically.
Without a temp buffer we have:
# trace-cmd start -p nop
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
0.790706626 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.71% )
# trace-cmd start -e all
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.566904059 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.27% )
# trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count==20'
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.690598511 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.19% )
# trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count!=20'
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.707486364 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.30% )
The first run above is without any tracing, just to get a based figure.
hackbench takes ~0.79 seconds to run on the system.
The second run enables tracing all events where nothing is filtered. This
increases the time by 100% and hackbench takes 1.57 seconds to run.
The third run filters all events where the preempt count will equal "20"
(this should never happen) thus all events are discarded. This takes 1.69
seconds to run. This is 10% slower than just committing the events!
The last run enables all events and filters where the filter will commit all
events, and this takes 1.70 seconds to run. The filtering overhead is
approximately 10%. Thus, the discard and commit of an event from the ring
buffer may be about the same time.
With this patch, the numbers change:
# trace-cmd start -p nop
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
0.778233033 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.38% )
# trace-cmd start -e all
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.582102692 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.28% )
# trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count==20'
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.309230710 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.22% )
# trace-cmd start -e all -f 'common_preempt_count!=20'
# perf stat -r 10 hackbench 50
1.786001924 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.20% )
The first run is again the base with no tracing.
The second run is all tracing with no filtering. It is a little slower, but
that may be well within the noise.
The third run shows that discarding all events only took 1.3 seconds. This
is a speed up of 23%! The discard is much faster than even the commit.
The one downside is shown in the last run. Events that are not discarded by
the filter will take longer to add, this is due to the extra copy of the
event.

As the event-fork option requires doing work when enabled and disabled, it
can not be passed down to created instances. The instance must clear this
flag when it is created, and must clear it when its removed.
As more options may be created with this need, a macro ZEROED_TRACE_FLAGS is
created that holds the flags that must not be inherited by the top level
instance, and must be cleared on removal of instances.

Allow users to have numeric fields displayed as log2 values in case
value range is very wide by appending '.log2' to field names.
For example,
# echo 'hist:key=bytes_req' > kmalloc/trigger
# cat kmalloc/hist
{ bytes_req: 504 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 11 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 104 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 48 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 2048 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 4096 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 240 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 392 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 13 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 28 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 12 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: 64 } hitcount: 2
{ bytes_req: 128 } hitcount: 2
{ bytes_req: 32 } hitcount: 2
{ bytes_req: 8 } hitcount: 11
{ bytes_req: 10 } hitcount: 13
{ bytes_req: 24 } hitcount: 25
{ bytes_req: 160 } hitcount: 29
{ bytes_req: 16 } hitcount: 33
{ bytes_req: 80 } hitcount: 36
When using '.log2' modifier, the output looks like:
# echo 'hist:key=bytes_req.log2' > kmalloc/trigger
# cat kmalloc/hist
{ bytes_req: ~ 2^12 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: ~ 2^11 } hitcount: 1
{ bytes_req: ~ 2^9 } hitcount: 2

Allow users to define 'named' hist triggers. All triggers created
with the same 'name=xxx' option will update the same shared histogram
data.
This expands the hist trigger syntax from this:
# echo hist:keys=xxx ... [ if filter] > event/trigger
to this:
# echo hist:name=xxx:keys=xxx ... [ if filter] > event/trigger
Named histograms must use a 'compatible' set of keys and values, which
means each event added to a set of named triggers must have the same
names and types.
Reading the 'hist' file of any of the participating events will
produce the same output as any other participating event, which is to
be expected since they share the same data.

Similar to enable_event/disable_event triggers, these triggers enable
and disable the aggregation of events into maps rather than enabling
and disabling their writing into the trace buffer.
They can be used to automatically start and stop hist triggers based
on a matching filter condition.
If there's a paused hist trigger on system:event, the following would
start it when the filter condition was hit:
# echo enable_hist:system:event [ if filter] > event/trigger
And the following would disable a running system:event hist trigger:
# echo disable_hist:system:event [ if filter] > event/trigger
See Documentation/trace/events.txt for real examples.

'hist' triggers allow users to continually aggregate trace events,
which can then be viewed afterwards by simply reading a 'hist' file
containing the aggregation in a human-readable format.
The basic idea is very simple and boils down to a mechanism whereby
trace events, rather than being exhaustively dumped in raw form and
viewed directly, are automatically 'compressed' into meaningful tables
completely defined by the user.
This is done strictly via single-line command-line commands and
without the aid of any kind of programming language or interpreter.
A surprising number of typical use cases can be accomplished by users
via this simple mechanism. In fact, a large number of the tasks that
users typically do using the more complicated script-based tracing
tools, at least during the initial stages of an investigation, can be
accomplished by simply specifying a set of keys and values to be used
in the creation of a hash table.
The Linux kernel trace event subsystem happens to provide an extensive
list of keys and values ready-made for such a purpose in the form of
the event format files associated with each trace event. By simply
consulting the format file for field names of interest and by plugging
them into the hist trigger command, users can create an endless number
of useful aggregations to help with investigating various properties
of the system. See Documentation/trace/events.txt for examples.
hist triggers are implemented on top of the existing event trigger
infrastructure, and as such are consistent with the existing triggers
from a user's perspective as well.
The basic syntax follows the existing trigger syntax. Users start an
aggregation by writing a 'hist' trigger to the event of interest's
trigger file:
# echo hist:keys=xxx [ if filter] > event/trigger
Once a hist trigger has been set up, by default it continually
aggregates every matching event into a hash table using the event key
and a value field named 'hitcount'.
To view the aggregation at any point in time, simply read the 'hist'
file in the same directory as the 'trigger' file:
# cat event/hist
The detailed syntax provides additional options for user control, and
is described exhaustively in Documentation/trace/events.txt and in the
virtual tracing/README file in the tracing subsystem.

Add the infrastructure needed to have the PIDs in set_event_pid to
automatically add PIDs of the children of the tasks that have their PIDs in
set_event_pid. This will also remove PIDs from set_event_pid when a task
exits
This is implemented by adding hooks into the fork and exit tracepoints. On
fork, the PIDs are added to the list, and on exit, they are removed.
Add a new option called event_fork that when set, PIDs in set_event_pid will
automatically get their children PIDs added when they fork, as well as any
task that exits will have its PID removed from set_event_pid.
This works for instances as well.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Nothing major this round. Mostly small clean ups and fixes.
Some visible changes:
- A new flag was added to distinguish traces done in NMI context.
- Preempt tracer now shows functions where preemption is disabled but
interrupts are still enabled.
Other notes:
- Updates were done to function tracing to allow better performance
with perf.
- Infrastructure code has been added to allow for a new histogram
feature for recording live trace event histograms that can be
configured by simple user commands. The feature itself was just
finished, but needs a round in linux-next before being pulled.
This only includes some infrastructure changes that will be needed"

If tracing contains data and the trace_pipe file is read with sendfile(),
then it can trigger a NULL pointer dereference and various BUG_ON within the
VM code.
There's a patch to fix this in the splice_to_pipe() code, but it's also a
good idea to not let that happen from trace_pipe either.
