2013-09-03ftrace: Fix a slight race in modifying what function callback gets tracedSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
There's a slight race when going from a list function to a non list function. That is, when only one callback is registered to the function tracer, it gets called directly by the mcount trampoline. But if this function has filters, it may be called by the wrong functions. As the list ops callback that handles multiple callbacks that are registered to ftrace, it also handles what functions they call. While the transaction is taking place, use the list function always, and after all the updates are finished (only the functions that should be traced are being traced), then we can update the trampoline to call the function directly.

2013-08-03tracing: Fix reset of time stamps during trace_clock changesAlexander Z Lam
Fixed two issues with changing the timestamp clock with trace_clock: - The global buffer was reset on instance clock changes. Change this to pass the correct per-instance buffer - ftrace_now() is used to set buf->time_start in tracing_reset_online_cpus(). This was incorrect because ftrace_now() used the global buffer's clock to return the current time. Change this to use buffer_ftrace_now() which returns the current time for the correct per-instance buffer. Also removed tracing_reset_current() because it is not used anywhere Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1375493777-17261-2-git-send-email-azl@google.com Cc: Vaibhav Nagarnaik <vnagarnaik@google.com> Cc: David Sharp <dhsharp@google.com> Cc: Alexander Z Lam <lambchop468@gmail.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 3.10 Signed-off-by: Alexander Z Lam <azl@google.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2013-08-03tracing: Fix fields of struct trace_iterator that are zeroed by mistakeAndrew Vagin
tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains a comment about that, but it doesn't help. The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed. The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344), in other words it was converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask. Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed. The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

2013-08-01tracing/uprobes: Fail to unregister if probe event files are in useSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Uprobes suffer the same problem that kprobes have. There's a race between writing to the "enable" file and removing the probe. The probe checks for it being in use and if it is not, goes about deleting the probe and the event that represents it. But the problem with that is, after it checks if it is in use it can be enabled, and the deletion of the event (access to the probe) will fail, as it is in use. But the uprobe will still be deleted. This is a problem as the event can reference the uprobe that was deleted. The fix is to remove the event first, and check to make sure the event removal succeeds. Then it is safe to remove the probe. When the event exists, either ftrace or perf can enable the probe and prevent the event from being removed.

When a probe is being removed, it cleans up the event files that correspond to the probe. But there is a race between writing to one of these files and deleting the probe.

2013-07-31tracing: Add comment to describe special break case in probe_remove_event_call()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The "break" used in the do_for_each_event_file() is used as an optimization as the loop is really a double loop. The loop searches all event files for each trace_array. There's only one matching event file per trace_array and after we find the event file for the trace_array, the break is used to jump to the next trace_array and start the search there. As this is not a standard way of using "break" in C code, it requires a comment right before the break to let people know what is going on. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2013-07-31tracing: trace_remove_event_call() should fail if call/file is in useOleg Nesterov
Change trace_remove_event_call(call) to return the error if this call is active. This is what the callers assume but can't verify outside of the tracing locks. Both trace_kprobe.c/trace_uprobe.c need the additional changes, unregister_trace_probe() should abort if trace_remove_event_call() fails. The caller is going to free this call/file so we must ensure that nobody can use them after trace_remove_event_call() succeeds. debugfs should be fine after the previous changes and event_remove() does TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER, but still there are 2 reasons why we need the additional checks: - There could be a perf_event(s) attached to this tp_event, so the patch checks ->perf_refcount. - TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER can be suppressed by FTRACE_EVENT_FL_SOFT_MODE, so we simply check FTRACE_EVENT_FL_ENABLED protected by event_mutex.

It was actually more than that. When functions are being traced, there's a table of all functions that have a ref count of the number of active tracers attached to that function. When a function trace callback is registered to a function, the function's record ref count is incremented. When it is unregistered, the function's record ref count is decremented. If an inconsistency is detected (ref count goes below zero) the above warning is shown and the function tracing is permanently disabled until reboot. The ftrace callback ops holds a hash of functions that it filters on (and/or filters off). If the hash is empty, the default means to filter all functions (for the filter_hash) or to disable no functions (for the notrace_hash). When a module is unloaded, it frees the function records that represent the module functions. These records exist on their own pages, that is function records for one module will not exist on the same page as function records for other modules or even the core kernel. Now when a module unloads, the records that represents its functions are freed. When the module is loaded again, the records are recreated with a default ref count of zero (unless there's a callback that traces all functions, then they will also be traced, and the ref count will be incremented). The problem is that if an ftrace callback hash includes functions of the module being unloaded, those hash entries will not be removed. If the module is reloaded in the same location, the hash entries still point to the functions of the module but the module's ref counts do not reflect that. With the help of Steve and Joern, we found a reproducer: Using uinput module and uinput_release function. cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing modprobe uinput echo uinput_release > set_ftrace_filter echo function > current_tracer rmmod uinput modprobe uinput # check /proc/modules to see if loaded in same addr, otherwise try again echo nop > current_tracer [BOOM] The above loads the uinput module, which creates a table of functions that can be traced within the module. We add uinput_release to the filter_hash to trace just that function. Enable function tracincg, which increments the ref count of the record associated to uinput_release. Remove uinput, which frees the records including the one that represents uinput_release. Load the uinput module again (and make sure it's at the same address). This recreates the function records all with a ref count of zero, including uinput_release. Disable function tracing, which will decrement the ref count for uinput_release which is now zero because of the module removal and reload, and we have a mismatch (below zero ref count). The solution is to check all currently tracing ftrace callbacks to see if any are tracing any of the module's functions when a module is loaded (it already does that with callbacks that trace all functions). If a callback happens to have a module function being traced, it increments that records ref count and starts tracing that function. There may be a strange side effect with this, where tracing module functions on unload and then reloading a new module may have that new module's functions being traced. This may be something that confuses the user, but it's not a big deal. Another approach is to disable all callback hashes on module unload, but this leaves some ftrace callbacks that may not be registered, but can still have hashes tracing the module's function where ftrace doesn't know about it. That situation can cause the same bug. This solution solves that case too. Another benefit of this solution, is it is possible to trace a module's function on unload and load.

2013-07-30tracing: Change remove_event_file_dir() to clear "d_subdirs"->i_privateOleg Nesterov
Change remove_event_file_dir() to clear ->i_private for every file we are going to remove. We need to check file->dir != NULL because event_create_dir() can fail. debugfs_remove_recursive(NULL) is fine but the patch moves it under the same check anyway for readability. spin_lock(d_lock) and "d_inode != NULL" check are not needed afaics, but I do not understand this code enough. tracing_open_generic_file() and tracing_release_generic_file() can go away, ftrace_enable_fops and ftrace_event_filter_fops() use tracing_open_generic() but only to check tracing_disabled. This fixes all races with event_remove() or instance_delete(). f_op->read/write/whatever can never use the freed file/call, all event/* files were changed to check and use ->i_private under event_mutex. Note: this doesn't not fix other problems, event_remove() can destroy the active ftrace_event_call, we need more changes but those changes are completely orthogonal.

2013-07-26tracing: Remove locking trace_types_lock from tracing_reset_all_online_cpus()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Commit a82274151af "tracing: Protect ftrace_trace_arrays list in trace_events.c" added taking the trace_types_lock mutex in trace_events.c as there were several locations that needed it for protection. Unfortunately, it also encapsulated a call to tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() which also takes the trace_types_lock, causing a deadlock. This happens when a module has tracepoints and has been traced. When the module is removed, the trace events module notifier will grab the trace_types_lock, do a bunch of clean ups, and also clears the buffer by calling tracing_reset_all_online_cpus. This doesn't happen often which explains why it wasn't caught right away. Commit a82274151af was marked for stable, which means this must be sent to stable too.

2013-07-24ftrace: Add check for NULL regs if ops has SAVE_REGS setSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
If a ftrace ops is registered with the SAVE_REGS flag set, and there's already a ops registered to one of its functions but without the SAVE_REGS flag, there's a small race window where the SAVE_REGS ops gets added to the list of callbacks to call for that function before the callback trampoline gets set to save the regs. The problem is, the function is not currently saving regs, which opens a small race window where the ops that is expecting regs to be passed to it, wont. This can cause a crash if the callback were to reference the regs, as the SAVE_REGS guarantees that regs will be set. To fix this, we add a check in the loop case where it checks if the ops has the SAVE_REGS flag set, and if so, it will ignore it if regs is not set.

2013-07-24tracing: Introduce trace_create_cpu_file() and tracing_get_cpu()Oleg Nesterov
Every "file_operations" used by tracing_init_debugfs_percpu is buggy. f_op->open/etc does: 1. struct trace_cpu *tc = inode->i_private; struct trace_array *tr = tc->tr; 2. trace_array_get(tr) or fail; 3. do_something(tc); But tc (and tr) can be already freed before trace_array_get() is called. And it doesn't matter whether this file is per-cpu or it was created by init_tracer_debugfs(), free_percpu() or kfree() are equally bad. Note that even 1. is not safe, the freed memory can be unmapped. But even if it was safe trace_array_get() can wrongly succeed if we also race with the next new_instance_create() which can re-allocate the same tr, or tc was overwritten and ->tr points to the valid tr. In this case 3. uses the freed/reused memory. Add the new trivial helper, trace_create_cpu_file() which simply calls trace_create_file() and encodes "cpu" in "struct inode". Another helper, tracing_get_cpu() will be used to read cpu_nr-or-RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS. The patch abuses ->i_cdev to encode the number, it is never used unless the file is S_ISCHR(). But we could use something else, say, i_bytes or even ->d_fsdata. In any case this hack is hidden inside these 2 helpers, it would be trivial to change them if needed. This patch only changes tracing_init_debugfs_percpu() to use the new trace_create_cpu_file(), the next patches will change file_operations. Note: tracing_get_cpu(inode) is always safe but you can't trust the result unless trace_array_get() was called, without trace_types_lock which acts as a barrier it can wrongly return RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS.

Note: "if (*ppos) return 0" looks strange and even wrong, simple_read_from_buffer() handles ppos != 0 case corrrectly. And it seems that almost every user of trace_seq in this file should be converted too.

2013-07-19tracing: Simplify the iteration logic in f_start/f_nextOleg Nesterov
f_next() looks overcomplicated, and it is not strictly correct even if this doesn't matter. Say, FORMAT_FIELD_SEPERATOR should not return NULL (means EOF) if trace_get_fields() returns an empty list, we should simply advance to FORMAT_PRINTFMT as we do when we find the end of list. 1. Change f_next() to return "struct list_head *" rather than "ftrace_event_field *", and change f_show() to do list_entry(). This simplifies the code a bit, only f_show() needs to know about ftrace_event_field, and f_next() can play with ->prev directly 2. Change f_next() to not play with ->prev / return inside the switch() statement. It can simply set node = head/common_head, the prev-or-advance-to-the-next-magic below does all work. While at it. f_start() looks overcomplicated too. I don't think *pos == 0 makes sense as a separate case, just change this code to do "while" instead of "do/while". The patch also moves f_start() down, close to f_stop(). This is purely cosmetic, just to make the locking added by the next patch more clear/visible.

The selftest for function and function graph tracers are defined as __init, as they are only executed at boot up. The "tracer" structs that are associated to those tracers are not setup as __init as they are used after boot. To stop mismatch warnings, those structures need to be annotated with __ref_data. Currently, the tracer structures are defined to __read_mostly, as they do not really change. But in the future they should be converted to consts, but that will take a little work because they have a "next" pointer that gets updated when they are registered. That will have to wait till the next major release.
