tracing: Show real address for trace event arguments

2023-08-11T09:57:33+00:00

[ Upstream commit efbbdaa22bb78761bff8dfdde027ad04bedd47ce ] To help debugging kernel, show real address for trace event arguments in tracefs/trace{,pipe} instead of hashed pointer value. Since ftrace human-readable format uses vsprintf(), all %p are translated to hash values instead of pointer address. However, when debugging the kernel, raw address value gives a hint when comparing with the memory mapping in the kernel. (Those are sometimes used with crash log, which is not hashed too) So converting %p with %px when calling trace_seq_printf(). Moreover, this is not improving the security because the tracefs can be used only by root user and the raw address values are readable from tracefs/percpu/cpu*/trace_pipe_raw file.

tracing: Use alignof__(struct {type b;}) instead of offsetof()

2023-01-24T06:20:01+00:00

commit 09794a5a6c348f629b35fc1687071a1622ef4265 upstream. Simplify: #define ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) ((int)(offsetof(struct {char a; type b;}, b))) with #define ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) __alignof__(struct {type b;}) Which works just the same.

tracing: Use a struct alignof to determine trace event field alignment

2022-08-21T13:16:23+00:00

commit 4c3d2f9388d36eb28640a220a6f908328442d873 upstream. alignof() gives an alignment of types as they would be as standalone variables. But alignment in structures might be different, and when building the fields of events, the alignment must be the actual alignment otherwise the field offsets may not match what they actually are. This caused trace-cmd to crash, as libtraceevent did not check if the field offset was bigger than the event. The write_msr and read_msr events on 32 bit had their fields incorrect, because it had a u64 field between two ints. alignof(u64) would give 8, but the u64 field was at a 4 byte alignment. Define a macro as: ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) ((int)(offsetof(struct {char a; type b;}, b))) which gives the actual alignment of types in a structure.

treewide: Convert macro and uses of section(foo) to section("foo")

2020-10-25T21:51:49+00:00

Use a more generic form for __section that requires quotes to avoid complications with clang and gcc differences. Remove the quote operator # from compiler_attributes.h __section macro. Convert all unquoted __section(foo) uses to quoted __section("foo"). Also convert __attribute__((section("foo"))) uses to __section("foo") even if the __attribute__ has multiple list entry forms.

tracing: not necessary to define DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT to be empty again

2020-06-30T18:29:32+00:00

After the previous cleanup, DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT's definition has no relationship with DEFINE_EVENT. So After we re-define DEFINE_EVENT, it is not necessary to define DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT to be empty again.

2020-06-30T18:29:32+00:00

Current definition define DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT to be DEFINE_EVENT. Actually, at this point DEFINE_EVENT is already an empty macro. Let's cut the relationship between DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT and DEFINE_EVENT.

The definition of DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT is not changed after previous one, so not necessary to re-define is as the same form. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200612092844.56107-3-richard.weiyang@linux.alibaba.com Signed-off-by: Wei Yang Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware)

After un-define DEFINE_EVENT in Stage 2, DEFINE_EVENT is not defined to a specific form. It is not necessary to un-define it again. Let's skip this.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Added new "bootconfig". This looks for a file appended to initrd to add boot config options, and has been discussed thoroughly at Linux Plumbers. Very useful for adding kprobes at bootup. Only enabled if "bootconfig" is on the real kernel command line. - Created dynamic event creation. Merges common code between creating synthetic events and kprobe events. - Rename perf "ring_buffer" structure to "perf_buffer" - Rename ftrace "ring_buffer" structure to "trace_buffer" Had to rename existing "trace_buffer" to "array_buffer" - Allow trace_printk() to work withing (some) tracing code. - Sort of tracing configs to be a little better organized - Fixed bug where ftrace_graph hash was not being protected properly - Various other small fixes and clean ups * tag 'trace-v5.6-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (88 commits) bootconfig: Show the number of nodes on boot message tools/bootconfig: Show the number of bootconfig nodes bootconfig: Add more parse error messages bootconfig: Use bootconfig instead of boot config ftrace: Protect ftrace_graph_hash with ftrace_sync ftrace: Add comment to why rcu_dereference_sched() is open coded tracing: Annotate ftrace_graph_notrace_hash pointer with __rcu tracing: Annotate ftrace_graph_hash pointer with __rcu bootconfig: Only load bootconfig if "bootconfig" is on the kernel cmdline tracing: Use seq_buf for building dynevent_cmd string tracing: Remove useless code in dynevent_arg_pair_add() tracing: Remove check_arg() callbacks from dynevent args tracing: Consolidate some synth_event_trace code tracing: Fix now invalid var_ref_vals assumption in trace action tracing: Change trace_boot to use synth_event interface tracing: Move tracing selftests to bottom of menu tracing: Move mmio tracer config up with the other tracers tracing: Move tracing test module configs together tracing: Move all function tracing configs together tracing: Documentation for in-kernel synthetic event API ...

tracing: Fix comments about trace/ftrace.h

2020-01-24T23:57:24+00:00

commit f42c85e74faa422cf0bc747ed808681145448f88 moved tracepoint's ftrace creation into include/trace/ftrace.h and trace/define_trace.h was deleted as a result. However some comment info does not adapt to the change, which is such a misguiding when reading related code. This patch fix this by moving trace/trace_events.h to , since tracepoint headers have already been moved to tarce/events/.
