[ Upstream commit 3572bd5689b0812b161b40279e39ca5b66d73e88 ]

The kprobes and synth event generation test modules add events and lock
(get a reference) those event file reference in module init function,
and unlock and delete it in module exit function. This is because those
are designed for playing as modules.

If we make those modules as built-in, those events are left locked in the
kernel, and never be removed. This causes kprobe event self-test failure
as below.

Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:

 - fprobe: Pass return address to the fprobe entry/exit callbacks so
   that the callbacks don't need to analyze pt_regs/stack to find the
   function return address.

 - kprobe events: cleanup usage of TPARG_FL_FENTRY and TPARG_FL_RETURN
   flags so that those are not set at once.

 - fprobe events:
      - Add a new fprobe events for tracing arbitrary function entry and
        exit as a trace event.
      - Add a new tracepoint events for tracing raw tracepoint as a
        trace event. This allows user to trace non user-exposed
        tracepoints.
      - Move eprobe's event parser code into probe event common file.
      - Introduce BTF (BPF type format) support to kernel probe (kprobe,
        fprobe and tracepoint probe) events so that user can specify
        traced function arguments by name. This also applies the type of
        argument when fetching the argument.
      - Introduce '$arg*' wildcard support if BTF is available. This
        expands the '$arg*' meta argument to all function argument
        automatically.
      - Check the return value types by BTF. If the function returns
        'void', '$retval' is rejected.
      - Add some selftest script for fprobe events, tracepoint events
        and BTF support.
      - Update documentation about the fprobe events.
      - Some fixes for above features, document and selftests.

 - selftests for ftrace (in addition to the new fprobe events):
      - Add a test case for multiple consecutive probes in a function
        which checks if ftrace based kprobe, optimized kprobe and normal
        kprobe can be defined in the same target function.
      - Add a test case for optimized probe, which checks whether kprobe
        can be optimized or not.

<title>function_graph: Support recording and printing the return value of function</title>
<updated>2023-06-20T22:38:37+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.exis.tech/linux.git/commit/?id=a1be9ccc57f07d54278be34eed6bd679bc941c97'/>

<content type='text'>
Analyzing system call failures with the function_graph tracer can be a
time-consuming process, particularly when locating the kernel function
that first returns an error in the trace logs. This change aims to
simplify the process by recording the function return value to the
'retval' member of 'ftrace_graph_ret' and printing it when outputting
the trace log.

We have introduced new trace options: funcgraph-retval and
funcgraph-retval-hex. The former controls whether to display the return
value, while the latter controls the display format.

Please note that even if a function's return type is void, a return
value will still be printed. You can simply ignore it.

This patch only establishes the fundamental infrastructure. Subsequent
patches will make this feature available on some commonly used processor
architectures.

Here is an example:

I attempted to attach the demo process to a cpu cgroup, but it failed:

echo `pidof demo` &gt; /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/tasks
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

The strace logs indicate that the write system call returned -EINVAL(-22):
...
write(1, "273\n", 4)                    = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
...

To capture trace logs during a write system call, use the following
commands:

cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo 0 &gt; tracing_on
echo &gt; trace
echo *sys_write &gt; set_graph_function
echo *spin* &gt; set_graph_notrace
echo *rcu* &gt;&gt; set_graph_notrace
echo *alloc* &gt;&gt; set_graph_notrace
echo preempt* &gt;&gt; set_graph_notrace
echo kfree* &gt;&gt; set_graph_notrace
echo $$ &gt; set_ftrace_pid
echo function_graph &gt; current_tracer
echo 1 &gt; options/funcgraph-retval
echo 0 &gt; options/funcgraph-retval-hex
echo 1 &gt; tracing_on
echo `pidof demo` &gt; /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/tasks
echo 0 &gt; tracing_on
cat trace &gt; ~/trace.log

To locate the root cause, search for error code -22 directly in the file
trace.log and identify the first function that returned -22. Once you
have identified this function, examine its code to determine the root
cause.

For example, in the trace log below, cpu_cgroup_can_attach
returned -22 first, so we can focus our analysis on this function to
identify the root cause.

...

 1)          | cgroup_migrate() {
 1) 0.651 us |   cgroup_migrate_add_task(); /* = 0xffff93fcfd346c00 */
 1)          |   cgroup_migrate_execute() {
 1)          |     cpu_cgroup_can_attach() {
 1)          |       cgroup_taskset_first() {
 1) 0.732 us |         cgroup_taskset_next(); /* = 0xffff93fc8fb20000 */
 1) 1.232 us |       } /* cgroup_taskset_first = 0xffff93fc8fb20000 */
 1) 0.380 us |       sched_rt_can_attach(); /* = 0x0 */
 1) 2.335 us |     } /* cpu_cgroup_can_attach = -22 */
 1) 4.369 us |   } /* cgroup_migrate_execute = -22 */
 1) 7.143 us | } /* cgroup_migrate = -22 */

Analyzing system call failures with the function_graph tracer can be a
time-consuming process, particularly when locating the kernel function
that first returns an error in the trace logs. This change aims to
simplify the process by recording the function return value to the
'retval' member of 'ftrace_graph_ret' and printing it when outputting
the trace log.

We have introduced new trace options: funcgraph-retval and
funcgraph-retval-hex. The former controls whether to display the return
value, while the latter controls the display format.

Support function or tracepoint parameters by name if BTF support is enabled
and the event is for function entry (this feature can be used with kprobe-
events, fprobe-events and tracepoint probe events.)

Note that the BTF variable syntax does not require a prefix. If it starts
with an alphabetic character or an underscore ('_') without a prefix like
'$' and '%', it is considered as a BTF variable.
If you specify only the BTF variable name, the argument name will also
be the same name instead of 'arg*'.

<title>tracing/probes: Add fprobe events for tracing function entry and exit.</title>

Add fprobe events for tracing function entry and exit instead of kprobe
events. With this change, we can continue to trace function entry/exit
even if the CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is not available. Since
CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE requires the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS,
it is not available if the architecture only supports
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. And that means kprobe events can not
probe function entry/exit effectively on such architecture.
But this can be solved if the dynamic events supports fprobe events.

The fprobe event is a new dynamic events which is only for the function
(symbol) entry and exit. This event accepts non register fetch arguments
so that user can trace the function arguments and return values.

The fprobe events syntax is here;

 f[:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION [FETCHARGS]
 f[MAXACTIVE][:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION%return [FETCHARGS]

E.g.

 # echo 'f vfs_read $arg1'  &gt;&gt; dynamic_events
 # echo 'f vfs_read%return $retval'  &gt;&gt; dynamic_events
 # cat dynamic_events
 f:fprobes/vfs_read__entry vfs_read arg1=$arg1
 f:fprobes/vfs_read__exit vfs_read%return arg1=$retval
 # echo 1 &gt; events/fprobes/enable
 # head -n 20 trace | tail
 #           TASK-PID     CPU#  |||||  TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
 #              | |         |   |||||     |         |
              sh-142     [005] ...1.   448.386420: vfs_read__entry: (vfs_read+0x4/0x340) arg1=0xffff888007f7c540

The user events was added a bit prematurely, and there were a few kernel
developers that had issues with it. The API also needed a bit of work to
make sure it would be stable. It was decided to make user events "broken"
until this was settled. Now it has a new API that appears to be as stable
as it will be without the use of a crystal ball. It's being used within
Microsoft as is, which means the API has had some testing in real world
use cases. It went through many discussions in the bi-weekly tracing
meetings, and there's been no more comments about updates.

I feel this is good to go.

As part of the discussions for user_events aligned with user space
tracers, it was determined that user programs should register a aligned
value to set or clear a bit when an event becomes enabled. Currently a
shared page is being used that requires mmap(). Remove the shared page
implementation and move to a user registered address implementation.

In this new model during the event registration from user programs 3 new
values are specified. The first is the address to update when the event
is either enabled or disabled. The second is the bit to set/clear to
reflect the event being enabled. The third is the size of the value at
the specified address.

This allows for a local 32/64-bit value in user programs to support
both kernel and user tracers. As an example, setting bit 31 for kernel
tracers when the event becomes enabled allows for user tracers to use
the other bits for ref counts or other flags. The kernel side updates
the bit atomically, user programs need to also update these values
atomically.

User provided addresses must be aligned on a natural boundary, this
allows for single page checking and prevents odd behaviors such as a
enable value straddling 2 pages instead of a single page. Currently
page faults are only logged, future patches will handle these.

<title>ftrace: Make DIRECT_CALLS work WITH_ARGS and !WITH_REGS</title>

Direct called trampolines can be called in two ways:
- either from the ftrace callsite. In this case, they do not access any
  struct ftrace_regs nor pt_regs
- Or, if a ftrace ops is also attached, from the end of a ftrace
  trampoline. In this case, the call_direct_funcs ops is in charge of
  setting the direct call trampoline's address in a struct ftrace_regs

Since:

commit 9705bc709604 ("ftrace: pass fregs to arch_ftrace_set_direct_caller()")

The later case no longer requires a full pt_regs. It only needs a struct
ftrace_regs so DIRECT_CALLS can work with both WITH_ARGS or WITH_REGS.
With architectures like arm64 already abandoning WITH_REGS in favor of
WITH_ARGS, it's important to have DIRECT_CALLS work WITH_ARGS only.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:

 - Add function names as a way to filter function addresses

 - Add sample module to test ftrace ops and dynamic trampolines

 - Allow stack traces to be passed from beginning event to end event for
   synthetic events. This will allow seeing the stack trace of when a
   task is scheduled out and recorded when it gets scheduled back in.

 - Add trace event helper __get_buf() to use as a temporary buffer when
   printing out trace event output.

 - Add kernel command line to create trace instances on boot up.

 - Add enabling of events to instances created at boot up.

 - Add trace_array_puts() to write into instances.

 - Allow boot instances to take a snapshot at the end of boot up.

 - Allow live patch modules to include trace events

 - Minor fixes and clean ups

* tag 'trace-v6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (31 commits)
  tracing: Remove unnecessary NULL assignment

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - Support for arm64 SME 2 and 2.1. SME2 introduces a new 512-bit
   architectural register (ZT0, for the look-up table feature) that
   Linux needs to save/restore

 - Include TPIDR2 in the signal context and add the corresponding
   kselftests

 - Perf updates: Arm SPEv1.2 support, HiSilicon uncore PMU updates, ACPI
   support to the Marvell DDR and TAD PMU drivers, reset DTM_PMU_CONFIG
   (ARM CMN) at probe time

 - Support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS on arm64

 - Permit EFI boot with MMU and caches on. Instead of cleaning the
   entire loaded kernel image to the PoC and disabling the MMU and
   caches before branching to the kernel bare metal entry point, leave
   the MMU and caches enabled and rely on EFI's cacheable 1:1 mapping of
   all of system RAM to populate the initial page tables

 - Expose the AArch32 (compat) ELF_HWCAP features to user in an arm64
   kernel (the arm32 kernel only defines the values)

 - Harden the arm64 shadow call stack pointer handling: stash the shadow
   stack pointer in the task struct on interrupt, load it directly from
   this structure

 - Signal handling cleanups to remove redundant validation of size
   information and avoid reading the same data from userspace twice

 - Refactor the hwcap macros to make use of the automatically generated
   ID registers. It should make new hwcaps writing less error prone

 - Further arm64 sysreg conversion and some fixes

 - arm64 kselftest fixes and improvements

 - Pointer authentication cleanups: don't sign leaf functions, unify
   asm-arch manipulation

 - Pseudo-NMI code generation optimisations

 - Minor fixes for SME and TPIDR2 handling

 - Miscellaneous updates: ARCH_FORCE_MAX_ORDER is now selectable,
   replace strtobool() to kstrtobool() in the cpufeature.c code, apply
   dynamic shadow call stack in two passes, intercept pfn changes in
   set_pte_at() without the required break-before-make sequence, attempt
   to dump all instructions on unhandled kernel faults
