selftests/ftrace: Add new test case which checks non unique symbol

2023-10-20T13:11:49+00:00

If name_show() is non unique, this test will try to install a kprobe on this function which should fail returning EADDRNOTAVAIL. On kernel where name_show() is not unique, this test is skipped.

Pull more kselftest fixes from Shuah Khan "Fixes to user_events test and ftrace test. The user_events test was enabled by default in Linux 6.6-rc1. The following fixes are for bugs found since then: - add checks for dependencies and skip the test if they aren't met. The user_events test requires root access, and tracefs and user_events enabled. It leaves tracefs mounted and a fix is in progress for that missing piece. - create user_events test-specific Kconfig fragments ftrace test fixes: - unmount tracefs for recovering environment. Fix identified during the above mentioned user_events dependencies fix. - adds softlink to latest log directory improving usage" * tag 'linux-kselftest-fixes-6.6-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest: selftests: tracing: Fix to unmount tracefs for recovering environment selftests: user_events: create test-specific Kconfig fragments ftrace/selftests: Add softlink to latest log directory selftests/user_events: Fix failures when user_events is not installed

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Add missing LOCKDOWN checks for eventfs callers When LOCKDOWN is active for tracing, it causes inconsistent state when some functions succeed and others fail. - Use dput() to free the top level eventfs descriptor There was a race between accesses and freeing it. - Fix a long standing bug that eventfs exposed due to changing timings by dynamically creating files. That is, If a event file is opened for an instance, there's nothing preventing the instance from being removed which will make accessing the files cause use-after-free bugs. - Fix a ring buffer race that happens when iterating over the ring buffer while writers are active. Check to make sure not to read the event meta data if it's beyond the end of the ring buffer sub buffer. - Fix the print trigger that disappeared because the test to create it was looking for the event dir field being filled, but now it has the "ef" field filled for the eventfs structure. - Remove the unused "dir" field from the event structure. - Fix the order of the trace_dynamic_info as it had it backwards for the offset and len fields for which one was for which endianess. - Fix NULL pointer dereference with eventfs_remove_rec() If an allocation fails in one of the eventfs_add_*() functions, the caller of it in event_subsystem_dir() or event_create_dir() assigns the result to the structure. But it's assigning the ERR_PTR and not NULL. This was passed to eventfs_remove_rec() which expects either a good pointer or a NULL, not ERR_PTR. The fix is to not assign the ERR_PTR to the structure, but to keep it NULL on error. - Fix list_for_each_rcu() to use list_for_each_srcu() in dcache_dir_open_wrapper(). One iteration of the code used RCU but because it had to call sleepable code, it had to be changed to use SRCU, but one of the iterations was missed. - Fix synthetic event print function to use "as_u64" instead of passing in a pointer to the union. To fix big/little endian issues, the u64 that represented several types was turned into a union to define the types properly. * tag 'trace-v6.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: eventfs: Fix the NULL pointer dereference bug in eventfs_remove_rec() tracefs/eventfs: Use list_for_each_srcu() in dcache_dir_open_wrapper() tracing/synthetic: Print out u64 values properly tracing/synthetic: Fix order of struct trace_dynamic_info selftests/ftrace: Fix dependencies for some of the synthetic event tests tracing: Remove unused trace_event_file dir field tracing: Use the new eventfs descriptor for print trigger ring-buffer: Do not attempt to read past "commit" tracefs/eventfs: Free top level files on removal ring-buffer: Avoid softlockup in ring_buffer_resize() tracing: Have event inject files inc the trace array ref count tracing: Have option files inc the trace array ref count tracing: Have current_trace inc the trace array ref count tracing: Have tracing_max_latency inc the trace array ref count tracing: Increase trace array ref count on enable and filter files tracefs/eventfs: Use dput to free the toplevel events directory tracefs/eventfs: Add missing lockdown checks tracefs: Add missing lockdown check to tracefs_create_dir()

selftests: tracing: Fix to unmount tracefs for recovering environment

Fix to unmount the tracefs if the ftracetest mounted it for recovering system environment. If the tracefs is already mounted, this does nothing.

ftrace/selftests: Add softlink to latest log directory

2023-09-11T23:06:40+00:00

When I'm debugging something with the ftrace selftests and need to look at the logs, it becomes tedious that I need to do the following: ls -ltr logs [ copy the last directory ] ls logs/ to see where the logs are. Instead, do the common practice of having a "latest" softlink to the last run selftest. This way after running the selftest I only need to do: ls logs/latest/ and it will always give me the directory of the last run selftest logs!

selftests/ftrace: Fix dependencies for some of the synthetic event tests

2023-09-09T03:13:03+00:00

Commit b81a3a100cca1b ("tracing/histogram: Add simple tests for stacktrace usage of synthetic events") changed the output text in tracefs README, but missed updating some of the dependencies specified in selftests. This causes some of the tests to exit as unsupported. Fix this by changing the grep pattern. Since we want these tests to work on older kernels, match only against the common last part of the pattern.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "User visible changes: - Added a way to easier filter with cpumasks: # echo 'cpumask & CPUS{17-42}' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ipi_send_cpumask/filter - Show actual size of ring buffer after modifying the ring buffer size via buffer_size_kb. Currently it just returns what was written, but the actual size rounds up to the sub buffer size. Show that real size instead. Major changes: - Added "eventfs". This is the code that handles the inodes and dentries of tracefs/events directory. As there are thousands of events, and each event has several inodes and dentries that currently exist even when tracing is never used, they take up precious memory. Instead, eventfs will allocate the inodes and dentries in a JIT way (similar to what procfs does). There is now metadata that handles the events and subdirectories, and will create the inodes and dentries when they are used. Note, I also have patches that remove the subdirectory meta data, but will wait till the next merge window before applying them. It's a little more complex, and I want to make sure the dynamic code works properly before adding more complexity, making it easier to revert if need be. Minor changes: - Optimization to user event list traversal - Remove intermediate permission of tracefs files (note the intermediate permission removes all access to the files so it is not a security concern, but just a clean up) - Add the complex fix to FORTIFY_SOURCE to the kernel stack event logic - Other minor cleanups" * tag 'trace-v6.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (29 commits) tracefs: Remove kerneldoc from struct eventfs_file tracefs: Avoid changing i_mode to a temp value tracing/user_events: Optimize safe list traversals ftrace: Remove empty declaration ftrace_enable_daemon() and ftrace_disable_daemon() tracing: Remove unused function declarations tracing/filters: Document cpumask filtering tracing/filters: Further optimise scalar vs cpumask comparison tracing/filters: Optimise CPU vs cpumask filtering when the user mask is a single CPU tracing/filters: Optimise scalar vs cpumask filtering when the user mask is a single CPU tracing/filters: Optimise cpumask vs cpumask filtering when user mask is a single CPU tracing/filters: Enable filtering the CPU common field by a cpumask tracing/filters: Enable filtering a scalar field by a cpumask tracing/filters: Enable filtering a cpumask field by another cpumask tracing/filters: Dynamically allocate filter_pred.regex test: ftrace: Fix kprobe test for eventfs eventfs: Move tracing/events to eventfs eventfs: Implement removal of meta data from eventfs eventfs: Implement functions to create files and dirs when accessed eventfs: Implement eventfs lookup, read, open functions eventfs: Implement eventfs file add functions ...
