The function hrtimer_init() doesn't exist anymore. It was replaced by
hrtimer_setup().
Thus, rename the hrtimer_init trace event to hrtimer_setup to keep it
consistent.

Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Persistent buffer cleanups and simplifications.
It was mistaken that the physical memory returned from "reserve_mem"
had to be vmap()'d to get to it from a virtual address. But
reserve_mem already maps the memory to the virtual address of the
kernel so a simple phys_to_virt() can be used to get to the virtual
address from the physical memory returned by "reserve_mem". With this
new found knowledge, the code can be cleaned up and simplified.
- Enforce that the persistent memory is page aligned
As the buffers using the persistent memory are all going to be
mapped via pages, make sure that the memory given to the tracing
infrastructure is page aligned. If it is not, it will print a
warning and fail to map the buffer.
- Use phys_to_virt() to get the virtual address from reserve_mem
Instead of calling vmap() on the physical memory returned from
"reserve_mem", use phys_to_virt() instead.
As the memory returned by "memmap" or any other means where a
physical address is given to the tracing infrastructure, it still
needs to be vmap(). Since this memory can never be returned back to
the buddy allocator nor should it ever be memmory mapped to user
space, flag this buffer and up the ref count. The ref count will
keep it from ever being freed, and the flag will prevent it from
ever being memory mapped to user space.
- Use vmap_page_range() for memmap virtual address mapping
For the memmap buffer, instead of allocating an array of struct
pages, assigning them to the contiguous phsycial memory and then
passing that to vmap(), use vmap_page_range() instead
- Replace flush_dcache_folio() with flush_kernel_vmap_range()
Instead of calling virt_to_folio() and passing that to
flush_dcache_folio(), just call flush_kernel_vmap_range() directly.
This also fixes a bug where if a subbuffer was bigger than
PAGE_SIZE only the PAGE_SIZE portion would be flushed"

Pull latency tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add some trace events to osnoise and timerlat sample generation
This adds more information to the osnoise and timerlat tracers as
well as allows BPF programs to be attached to these locations to
extract even more data.
- Fix to DECLARE_TRACE_CONDITION() macro
It wasn't used but now will be and it happened to be broken causing
the build to fail.
- Add scheduler specification monitors to runtime verifier (RV)
This is a continuation of Daniel Bristot's work.
RV allows monitors to run and react concurrently. Running the
cumulative model is equivalent to running single components using the
same reactors, with the advantage that it's easier to point out which
specification failed in case of error.
This update introduces nested monitors to RV, in short, the sysfs
monitor folder will contain a monitor named sched, which is nothing
but an empty container for other monitors. Controlling the sched
monitor (enable, disable, set reactors) controls all nested monitors.
The following scheduling monitors are added:
- sco: scheduling context operations
Monitor to ensure sched_set_state happens only in thread context
- tss: task switch while scheduling
Monitor to ensure sched_switch happens only in scheduling context
- snroc: set non runnable on its own context
Monitor to ensure set_state happens only in the respective task's context
- scpd: schedule called with preemption disabled
Monitor to ensure schedule is called with preemption disabled
- snep: schedule does not enable preempt
Monitor to ensure schedule does not enable preempt

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers
There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in
the error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was
allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the
guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free
memory when the function exits.
- Update the Rust tracepoint code to use the C code too
There was some duplication of the tracepoint code for Rust that did
the same logic as the C code. Add a helper that makes it possible for
both algorithms to use the same logic in one place.
- Add poll to trace event hist files
It is useful to know when an event is triggered, or even with some
filtering. Since hist files of events get updated when active and the
event is triggered, allow applications to poll the hist file and wake
up when an event is triggered. This will let the application know
that the event it is waiting for happened.
- Add :mod: command to enable events for current or future modules
The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be
traced in modules by writing ":mod:<module>" into set_ftrace_filter.
That will enable either all the functions for the module if it is
loaded, or if it is not, it will cache that command, and when the
module is loaded that matches <module>, its functions will be
enabled. This also allows init functions to be traced. But currently
events do not have that feature.
Add the command where if ':mod:<module>' is written into set_event,
then either all the modules events are enabled if it is loaded, or
cache it so that the module's events are enabled when it is loaded.
This also works from the kernel command line, where
"trace_event=:mod:<module>", when the module is loaded at boot up,
its events will be enabled then.

Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Have fprobes built on top of function graph infrastructure
The fprobe logic is an optimized kprobe that uses ftrace to attach to
functions when a probe is needed at the start or end of the function.
The fprobe and kretprobe logic implements a similar method as the
function graph tracer to trace the end of the function. That is to
hijack the return address and jump to a trampoline to do the trace
when the function exits. To do this, a shadow stack needs to be
created to store the original return address. Fprobes and function
graph do this slightly differently. Fprobes (and kretprobes) has
slots per callsite that are reserved to save the return address. This
is fine when just a few points are traced. But users of fprobes, such
as BPF programs, are starting to add many more locations, and this
method does not scale.
The function graph tracer was created to trace all functions in the
kernel. In order to do this, when function graph tracing is started,
every task gets its own shadow stack to hold the return address that
is going to be traced. The function graph tracer has been updated to
allow multiple users to use its infrastructure. Now have fprobes be
one of those users. This will also allow for the fprobe and kretprobe
methods to trace the return address to become obsolete. With new
technologies like CFI that need to know about these methods of
hijacking the return address, going toward a solution that has only
one method of doing this will make the kernel less complex.
- Cleanup with guard() and free() helpers
There were several places in the code that had a lot of "goto out" in
the error paths to either unlock a lock or free some memory that was
allocated. But this is error prone. Convert the code over to use the
guard() and free() helpers that let the compiler unlock locks or free
memory when the function exits.
- Remove disabling of interrupts in the function graph tracer
When function graph tracer was first introduced, it could race with
interrupts and NMIs. To prevent that race, it would disable
interrupts and not trace NMIs. But the code has changed to allow NMIs
and also interrupts. This change was done a long time ago, but the
disabling of interrupts was never removed. Remove the disabling of
interrupts in the function graph tracer is it is not needed. This
greatly improves its performance.
- Allow the :mod: command to enable tracing module functions on the
kernel command line.
The function tracer already has a way to enable functions to be
traced in modules by writing ":mod:<module>" into set_ftrace_filter.
That will enable either all the functions for the module if it is
loaded, or if it is not, it will cache that command, and when the
module is loaded that matches <module>, its functions will be
enabled. This also allows init functions to be traced. But currently
events do not have that feature.
Because enabling function tracing can be done very early at boot up
(before scheduling is enabled), the commands that can be done when
function tracing is started is limited. Having the ":mod:" command to
trace module functions as they are loaded is very useful. Update the
kernel command line function filtering to allow it.

When the :mod: command is written into /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event (or
that file within an instance), if the module specified after the ":mod:"
is not yet loaded, it will store that string internally. When the module
is loaded, it will enable the events as if the module was loaded when the
string was written into the set_event file.
This can also be useful to enable events that are in the init section of
the module, as the events are enabled before the init section is executed.
This also works on the kernel command line:
trace_event=:mod:<module>
Will enable the events for <module> when it is loaded.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Addition of faultable tracepoints
There's a tracepoint attached to both a system call entry and exit.
This location is known to allow page faults. The tracepoints are
called under an rcu_read_lock() which does not allow faults that can
sleep. This limits the ability of tracepoint handlers to page fault
in user space system call parameters. Now these tracepoints have been
made "faultable", allowing the callbacks to fault in user space
parameters and record them.
Note, only the infrastructure has been implemented. The consumers
(perf, ftrace, BPF) now need to have their code modified to allow
faults.
- Fix up of BPF code for the tracepoint faultable logic
- Update tracepoints to use the new static branch API
- Remove trace_*_rcuidle() variants and the SRCU protection they used
- Remove unused TRACE_EVENT_FL_FILTERED logic
- Replace strncpy() with strscpy() and memcpy()
- Use replace per_cpu_ptr(smp_processor_id()) with this_cpu_ptr()
- Fix perf events to not duplicate samples when tracing is enabled
- Replace atomic64_add_return(1, counter) with
atomic64_inc_return(counter)
- Make stack trace buffer 4K instead of PAGE_SIZE
- Remove TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_NOSUPPORT flag as it was never used
- Get the true return address for function tracer when function graph
tracer is also running.
When function_graph trace is running along with function tracer, the
parent function of the function tracer sometimes is
"return_to_handler", which is the function graph trampoline to record
the exit of the function. Use existing logic that calls into the
fgraph infrastructure to find the real return address.
- Remove (un)regfunc pointers out of tracepoint structure
- Added last minute bug fix for setting pending modules in stack
function filter.
echo "write*:mod:ext3" > /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter
Would cause a kernel NULL dereference.
- Minor clean ups

It was possible to enable tracing with no IRQ tracing support. The
tracing infrastructure would then record TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_NOSUPPORT as
the only tracing flag and show an 'X' in the output.
The last user of this feature was PPC32 which managed to implement it
during PowerPC merge in 2009. Since then, it was unused and the PPC32
dependency was finally removed in commit 0ea5ee035133a ("tracing: Remove
PPC32 wart from config TRACING_SUPPORT").
Since the PowerPC merge the code behind !CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT
with TRACING enabled can no longer be selected used and the 'X' is not
displayed or recorded.
Remove the CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT from the tracing code. Remove
TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_NOSUPPORT.

Add a option "trace_printk_dest" that will make the tracing instance the
location that trace_printk() will go to. This is useful if the
trace_printk or one of the top level tracers is too noisy and there's a
need to separate the two. Then an instance can be created, the
trace_printk can be set to go there instead, where it will not be lost in
the noise of the top level tracer.
Note, only one instance can be the destination of trace_printk at a time.
If an instance sets this flag, the instance that had it set will have it
cleared. There is always one instance that has this set. By default, that
is the top instance. This flag cannot be cleared from the top instance.
Doing so will result in an -EINVAL. The only way this flag can be cleared
from the top instance is by another instance setting it.

Pull ftrace updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Rewrite of function graph tracer to allow multiple users
Up until now, the function graph tracer could only have a single user
attached to it. If another user tried to attach to the function graph
tracer while one was already attached, it would fail. Allowing
function graph tracer to have more than one user has been asked for
since 2009, but it required a rewrite to the logic to pull it off so
it never happened. Until now!
There's three systems that trace the return of a function. That is
kretprobes, function graph tracer, and BPF. kretprobes and function
graph tracing both do it similarly. The difference is that kretprobes
uses a shadow stack per callback and function graph tracer creates a
shadow stack for all tasks. The function graph tracer method makes it
possible to trace the return of all functions. As kretprobes now needs
that feature too, allowing it to use function graph tracer was needed.
BPF also wants to trace the return of many probes and its method
doesn't scale either. Having it use function graph tracer would
improve that.
By allowing function graph tracer to have multiple users allows both
kretprobes and BPF to use function graph tracer in these cases. This
will allow kretprobes code to be removed in the future as it's version
will no longer be needed.
Note, function graph tracer is only limited to 16 simultaneous users,
due to shadow stack size and allocated slots"

Pull tracing ring buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Add ring_buffer memory mappings.
The tracing ring buffer was created based on being mostly used with
the splice system call. It is broken up into page ordered sub-buffers
and the reader swaps a new sub-buffer with an existing sub-buffer
that's part of the write buffer. It then has total access to the
swapped out sub-buffer and can do copyless movements of the memory
into other mediums (file system, network, etc).
The buffer is great for passing around the ring buffer contents in the
kernel, but is not so good for when the consumer is the user space
task itself.
A new interface is added that allows user space to memory map the ring
buffer. It will get all the write sub-buffers as well as reader
sub-buffer (that is not written to). It can send an ioctl to change
which sub-buffer is the new reader sub-buffer.
The ring buffer is read only to user space. It only needs to call the
ioctl when it is finished with a sub-buffer and needs a new sub-buffer
that the writer will not write over.
A self test program was also created for testing and can be used as an
example for the interface to user space. The libtracefs (external to
the kernel) also has code that interacts with this, although it is
disabled until the interface is in a official release. It can be
enabled by compiling the library with a special flag. This was used
for testing applications that perform better with the buffer being
mapped.
Memory mapped buffers have limitations. The main one is that it can
not be used with the snapshot logic. If the buffer is mapped,
snapshots will be disabled. If any logic is set to trigger snapshots
on a buffer, that buffer will not be allowed to be mapped"
