<id>urn:sha1:fcb88dc66b72f6b0617a1d3e964fbcfbfe802b13</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 23a4b108accc29a6125ed14de4a044689ffeda78 upstream.

The kprobe_eventname.tc test checks if a function with .isra. can have a
kprobe attached to it. It loops through the kallsyms file for all the
functions that have the .isra. name, and checks if it exists in the
available_filter_functions file, and if it does, it uses it to attach a
kprobe to it.

The issue is that kprobes can not attach to functions that are listed more
than once in available_filter_functions. With the latest kernel, the
function that is found is: rapl_event_update.isra.0

  # grep rapl_event_update.isra.0 /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions
  rapl_event_update.isra.0
  rapl_event_update.isra.0

It is listed twice. This causes the attached kprobe to it to fail which in
turn fails the test. Instead of just picking the function function that is
found in available_filter_functions, pick the first one that is listed
only once in available_filter_functions.

Commit eb50d0f250e9 ("selftests/ftrace: Choose target function for filter
test from samples") choose the target function from samples, but sometimes
this test failes randomly because the target function does not hit at the
next time. So retry getting samples up to 10 times.

[ Upstream commit f6c3c83db1d939ebdb8c8922748ae647d8126d91 ]

The dynevent/test_duplicates.tc test case uses `syscalls/sys_enter_openat`
event for defining eprobe on it. Since this `syscalls` events depend on
CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS=y, if it is not set, the test will fail.

Add the event file to `required` line so that the test will return
`unsupported` result.

commit 2fd3ef1b9265eda7f53b9506f1ebfb67eb6435a2 upstream.

Since the dynevent/add_remove_btfarg.tc test case forgets to ensure that
fprobe is enabled for some structure field access tests which uses the
fprobe, it fails if CONFIG_FPROBE=n or CONFIG_FPROBE_EVENTS=n.
Fixes it to ensure the fprobe events are supported.

<title>selftests/ftrace: Fix event filter target_func selection</title>

<id>urn:sha1:926e8bc0cfeff8fe34b56128246df5a003110f9d</id>

[ Upstream commit 8ecab2e64572f1aecdfc5a8feae748abda6e3347 ]

The event filter function test has been failing in our internal test
farm:

| # not ok 33 event filter function - test event filtering on functions

Running the test in verbose mode indicates that this is because the test
erroneously determines that kmem_cache_free() is the most common caller
of kmem_cache_free():

  # # + cut -d: -f3 trace
  # # + sed s/call_site=([^+]*)+0x.*/1/
  # # + sort
  # # + uniq -c
  # # + sort
  # # + tail -n 1
  # # + sed s/^[ 0-9]*//
  # # + target_func=kmem_cache_free

... and as kmem_cache_free() doesn't call itself, setting this as the
filter function for kmem_cache_free() results in no hits, and
consequently the test fails:

  # # + grep kmem_cache_free trace
  # # + grep kmem_cache_free
  # # + wc -l
  # # + hitcnt=0
  # # + grep kmem_cache_free trace
  # # + grep -v kmem_cache_free
  # # + wc -l
  # # + misscnt=0
  # # + [ 0 -eq 0 ]
  # # + exit_fail

This seems to be because the system in question has tasks with ':' in
their name (which a number of kernel worker threads have). These show up
in the trace, e.g.

  test:.sh-1299    [004] .....  2886.040608: kmem_cache_free: call_site=putname+0xa4/0xc8 ptr=000000000f4d22f4 name=names_cache

... and so when we try to extact the call_site with:

  cut -d: -f3 trace | sed 's/call_site=\([^+]*\)+0x.*/\1/'

... the 'cut' command will extrace the column containing
'kmem_cache_free' rather than the column containing 'call_site=...', and
the 'sed' command will leave this unchanged. Consequently, the test will
decide to use 'kmem_cache_free' as the filter function, resulting in the
failure seen above.

Fix this by matching the 'call_site=&lt;func&gt;' part specifically to extract
the function name.

commit 1a4ea83a6e67f1415a1f17c1af5e9c814c882bb5 upstream.

While sched* events being traced and sched* events continuously happen,
"[xx] event tracing - enable/disable with subsystem level files" would
not stop as on some slower systems it seems to take forever.
Select the first 100 lines of output would be enough to judge whether
there are more than 3 types of sched events.

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.

 "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"

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.
