git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux Pull perf tools updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: - Add support for AMD on 'perf mem' and 'perf c2c', the kernel enablement patches went via tip. Example: $ sudo perf mem record -- -c 10000 ^C[ perf record: Woken up 227 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 58.760 MB perf.data (836978 samples) ] $ sudo perf mem report -F mem,sample,snoop Samples: 836K of event 'ibs_op//', Event count (approx.): 8418762 Memory access Samples Snoop N/A 700620 N/A L1 hit 126675 N/A L2 hit 424 N/A L3 hit 664 HitM L3 hit 10 N/A Local RAM hit 2 N/A Remote RAM (1 hop) hit 8558 N/A Remote Cache (1 hop) hit 3 N/A Remote Cache (1 hop) hit 2 HitM Remote Cache (2 hops) hit 10 HitM Remote Cache (2 hops) hit 6 N/A Uncached hit 4 N/A $ - "perf lock" improvements: - Add -E/--entries option to limit the number of entries to display, say to ask for just the top 5 contended locks. - Add -q/--quiet option to suppress header and debug messages. - Add a 'perf test' kernel lock contention entry to test 'perf lock'. - "perf lock contention" improvements: - Ask BPF's bpf_get_stackid() to skip some callchain entries. The ones closer to the tooling are bpf related and not that interesting, the ones calling the locking function are the ones we're interested in, example of a full, unskipped callstack: - Allow changing the callstack depth and number of entries to skip. 1 10.74 us 10.74 us 10.74 us spinlock __bpf_trace_contention_begin+0xb 0xffffffffc03b5c47 bpf_prog_bf07ae9e2cbd02c5_contention_begin+0x117 0xffffffffc03b5c47 bpf_prog_bf07ae9e2cbd02c5_contention_begin+0x117 0xffffffffbb8b8e75 bpf_trace_run2+0x35 0xffffffffbb7eab9b __bpf_trace_contention_begin+0xb 0xffffffffbb7ebe75 queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x1f5 0xffffffffbc1c26ff _raw_spin_lock+0x1f 0xffffffffbb841015 tick_do_update_jiffies64+0x25 0xffffffffbb8409ee tick_irq_enter+0x9e - Show full callstack in verbose mode (-v option), sometimes this is desirable instead of showing just one callstack entry. - Allow multiple time ranges in 'perf record --delay' to help in reducing the amount of data collected from hardware tracing (Intel PT, etc) when there is a rough idea of periods of time where events of interest take time. - Add Intel PT to record only decoder debug messages when error happens. - Improve layout of Intel PT man page. - Add new branch types: alignment, data and inst faults and arch specific ones, such as fiq, debug_halt, debug_exit, debug_inst and debug_data on arm64. Kernel enablement went thru the tip tree. - Fix 'perf probe' error log check in 'perf test' when no debuginfo is available. - Fix 'perf stat' aggregation mode logic, it should be looking at the CPU not at the core number. - Fix flags parsing in 'perf trace' filters. - Introduce compact encoding of CPU range encoding on perf.data, to avoid having a bitmap with all the CPUs. - Improvements to the 'perf stat' metrics, including adding "core_wide", and computing "smt" from the CPU topology. - Add support to the new PERF_FORMAT_LOST perf_event_attr.read_format, that allows tooling to ask for the precise number of lost samples for a given event. - Add 'addr' sort key to see just the address of sampled instructions: $ perf record -o- true | perf report -i- -s addr [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.000 MB - ] # Samples: 12 of event 'cycles:u' # Event count (approx.): 252512 # # Overhead Address # ........ .................. 42.96% 0x7f96f08443d7 29.55% 0x7f96f0859b50 14.76% 0x7f96f0852e02 8.30% 0x7f96f0855028 4.43% 0xffffffff8de01087 perf annotate: Toggle full address <-> offset display - Add 'f' hotkey to the 'perf annotate' TUI interface when in 'disassembler output' mode ('o' hotkey) to toggle showing full virtual address or just the offset. - Cache DSO build-ids when synthesizing PERF_RECORD_MMAP records for pre-existing threads, at the start of a 'perf record' session, speeding up that record startup phase. - Add a command line option to specify build ids in 'perf inject'. - Update JSON event files for the Intel alderlake, broadwell, broadwellde, broadwellx, cascadelakex, haswell, haswellx, icelake, icelakex, ivybridge, ivytown, jaketown, sandybridge, sapphirerapids, skylake, skylakex, and tigerlake processors. - Update vendor JSON event files for the ARM Neoverse V1 and E1 platforms. - Add a 'perf test' entry for 'perf mem' where a struct has false sharing and this gets detected in the 'perf mem' output, tested with Intel, AMD and ARM64 systems. - Add a 'perf test' entry to test the resolution of java symbols, where an output like this is expected: 8.18% jshell jitted-50116-29.so [.] Interpreter 0.75% Thread-1 jitted-83602-1670.so [.] jdk.internal.jimage.BasicImageReader.getString(int) - Add tests for the ARM64 CoreSight hardware tracing feature, with specially crafted pureloop, memcpy, thread loop and unroll tread that then gets traced and the output compared with expected output. Documentation explaining it is also included. - Add per thread Intel PT 'perf test' entry to check that PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE events are recorded per CPU, resulting in a mixture of per thread and per CPU events and mmaps, verify that this gets all recorded correctly. - Introduce pthread mutex wrappers to allow for building with clang's -Wthread-safety, i.e. using the "guarded_by" "pt_guarded_by" "lockable", "exclusive_lock_function", "exclusive_trylock_function", "exclusive_locks_required", and "no_thread_safety_analysis" compiler function attributes. - Fix empty version number when building outside of a git repo. - Improve feature detection display when multiple versions of a feature are present, such as for binutils libbfd, that has a mix of possible ways to detect according to the Linux distribution. Previously in some cases we had: Auto-detecting system features <SNIP> ... libbfd: [ on ] ... libbfd-liberty: [ on ] ... libbfd-liberty-z: [ on ] <SNIP> Now for this case we show just the main feature: Auto-detecting system features <SNIP> ... libbfd: [ on ] <SNIP> - Remove some unused structs, variables, macros, function prototypes and includes from various places. * tag 'perf-tools-for-v6.1-1-2022-10-07' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux: (169 commits) perf script: Add missing fields in usage hint perf mem: Print "LFB/MAB" for PERF_MEM_LVLNUM_LFB perf mem/c2c: Avoid printing empty lines for unsupported events perf mem/c2c: Add load store event mappings for AMD perf mem/c2c: Set PERF_SAMPLE_WEIGHT for LOAD_STORE events perf mem: Add support for printing PERF_MEM_LVLNUM_{CXL|IO} perf amd ibs: Sync arch/x86/include/asm/amd-ibs.h header with the kernel tools headers UAPI: Sync include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h header with the kernel perf stat: Fix cpu check to use id.cpu.cpu in aggr_printout() perf test coresight: Add relevant documentation about ARM64 CoreSight testing perf test: Add git ignore for tmp and output files of ARM CoreSight tests perf test coresight: Add unroll thread test shell script perf test coresight: Add unroll thread test tool perf test coresight: Add thread loop test shell scripts perf test coresight: Add thread loop test tool perf test coresight: Add memcpy thread test shell script perf test coresight: Add memcpy thread test tool perf test: Add git ignore for perf data generated by the ARM CoreSight tests perf test: Add arm64 asm pureloop test shell script perf test: Add asm pureloop test tool ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Major changes: - Changed location of tracing repo from personal git repo to: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace.git - Added Masami Hiramatsu as co-maintainer - Updated MAINTAINERS file to separate out FTRACE as it is more than just TRACING. Minor changes: - Added Mark Rutland as FTRACE reviewer - Updated user_events to make it on its way to remove the BROKEN tag. The changes should now be acceptable but will run it through a cycle and hopefully we can remove the BROKEN tag next release. - Added filtering to eprobes - Added a delta time to the benchmark trace event - Have the histogram and filter callbacks called via a switch statement instead of indirect functions. This speeds it up to avoid retpolines. - Add a way to wake up ring buffer waiters waiting for the ring buffer to fill up to its watermark. - New ioctl() on the trace_pipe_raw file to wake up ring buffer waiters. - Wake up waiters when the ring buffer is disabled. A reader may block when the ring buffer is disabled, but if it was blocked when the ring buffer is disabled it should then wake up. Fixes: - Allow splice to read partially read ring buffer pages. This fixes splice never moving forward. - Fix inverted compare that made the "shortest" ring buffer wait queue actually the longest. - Fix a race in the ring buffer between resetting a page when a writer goes to another page, and the reader. - Fix ftrace accounting bug when function hooks are added at boot up before the weak functions are set to "disabled". - Fix bug that freed a user allocated snapshot buffer when enabling a tracer. - Fix possible recursive locks in osnoise tracer - Fix recursive locking direct functions - Other minor clean ups and fixes" * tag 'trace-v6.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: (44 commits) ftrace: Create separate entry in MAINTAINERS for function hooks tracing: Update MAINTAINERS to reflect new tracing git repo tracing: Do not free snapshot if tracer is on cmdline ftrace: Still disable enabled records marked as disabled tracing/user_events: Move pages/locks into groups to prepare for namespaces tracing: Add Masami Hiramatsu as co-maintainer tracing: Remove unused variable 'dups' MAINTAINERS: add myself as a tracing reviewer ring-buffer: Fix race between reset page and reading page tracing/user_events: Update ABI documentation to align to bits vs bytes tracing/user_events: Use bits vs bytes for enabled status page data tracing/user_events: Use refcount instead of atomic for ref tracking tracing/user_events: Ensure user provided strings are safely formatted tracing/user_events: Use WRITE instead of READ for io vector import tracing/user_events: Use NULL for strstr checks tracing: Fix spelling mistake "preapre" -> "prepare" tracing: Wake up waiters when tracing is disabled tracing: Add ioctl() to force ring buffer waiters to wake up tracing: Wake up ring buffer waiters on closing of the file ring-buffer: Add ring_buffer_wake_waiters() ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Runtime verification infrastructure This is the biggest change here. It introduces the runtime verification that is necessary for running Linux on safety critical systems. It allows for deterministic automata models to be inserted into the kernel that will attach to tracepoints, where the information on these tracepoints will move the model from state to state. If a state is encountered that does not belong to the model, it will then activate a given reactor, that could just inform the user or even panic the kernel (for which safety critical systems will detect and can recover from). - Two monitor models are also added: Wakeup In Preemptive (WIP - not to be confused with "work in progress"), and Wakeup While Not Running (WWNR). - Added __vstring() helper to the TRACE_EVENT() macro to replace several vsnprintf() usages that were all doing it wrong. - eprobes now can have their event autogenerated when the event name is left off. - The rest is various cleanups and fixes. * tag 'trace-v6.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (50 commits) rv: Unlock on error path in rv_unregister_reactor() tracing: Use alignof__(struct {type b;}) instead of offsetof() tracing/eprobe: Show syntax error logs in error_log file scripts/tracing: Fix typo 'the the' in comment tracepoints: It is CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS not CONFIG_TRACEPOINT tracing: Use free_trace_buffer() in allocate_trace_buffers() tracing: Use a struct alignof to determine trace event field alignment rv/reactor: Add the panic reactor rv/reactor: Add the printk reactor rv/monitor: Add the wwnr monitor rv/monitor: Add the wip monitor rv/monitor: Add the wip monitor skeleton created by dot2k Documentation/rv: Add deterministic automata instrumentation documentation Documentation/rv: Add deterministic automata monitor synthesis documentation tools/rv: Add dot2k Documentation/rv: Add deterministic automaton documentation tools/rv: Add dot2c Documentation/rv: Add a basic documentation rv/include: Add instrumentation helper functions rv/include: Add deterministic automata monitor definition via C macros ...
2022-07-30rv/monitor: Add the wwnr monitorDaniel Bristot de Oliveira2-0/+46
Per task wakeup while not running (wwnr) monitor. This model is broken, the reason is that a task can be running in the processor without being set as RUNNABLE. Think about a task about to sleep: 1: set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE); 2: schedule(); And then imagine an IRQ happening in between the lines one and two, waking the task up. BOOM, the wakeup will happen while the task is running. Q: Why do we need this model, so? A: To test the reactors.

The wakeup in preemptive (wip) monitor verifies if the wakeup events always take place with preemption disabled: | | v #==================# H preemptive H <+ #==================# | | | | preempt_disable | preempt_enable v | sched_waking +------------------+ | +--------------- | | | | | non_preemptive | | +--------------> | | -+ +------------------+ The wakeup event always takes place with preemption disabled because of the scheduler synchronization.

2022-07-25tracing: Auto generate event name when creating a group of eventsLinyu Yuan2-8/+8
Currently when creating a specific group of trace events, take kprobe event as example, the user must use the following format: p:GRP/EVENT [MOD:]KSYM[+OFFS]|KADDR [FETCHARGS], which means user must enter EVENT name, one example is: echo 'p:usb_gadget/config_usb_cfg_link config_usb_cfg_link $arg1' >> kprobe_events It is not simple if there are too many entries because the event name is the same as symbol name. This change allows user to specify no EVENT name, format changed as: p:GRP/ [MOD:]KSYM[+OFFS]|KADDR [FETCHARGS] It will generate event name automatically and one example is: echo 'p:usb_gadget/ config_usb_cfg_link $arg1' >> kprobe_events.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "The sprinkling of SPI drivers is because we added a new one and Mark sent us a SPI driver interface conversion pull request. Core ---- - Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO). - Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little. Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns. Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration to complete out of order. - Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect). - Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the stack. - Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically allocated per-CPU counters. - Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT. - Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs. BPF --- - Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity. Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting split. - Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers. - Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the user-mode-driver dependency. - Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling its use as a packet generator. - Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if called from a hook allowed to sleep. - Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch bits to come later). - Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF kfunc infra. - Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space. - Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching. - Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers. - Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64. - Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels without BTF info. - Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations. Protocols --------- - Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev. - Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames. - Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable, via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client behavior. - VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge. - Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames. - Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.) - Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets. - Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS. Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules. - Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X). - tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs, doubling the performance in some scenarios. - IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch. - Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port. Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor. - SMC - improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile() - support auto-corking - support TCP_NODELAY - MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol) - add user space tag control interface - I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237) - Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi. - Bluetooth: - handle MSFT Monitor Device Event - add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events - Multi-Path TCP: - add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option - lots of selftest cleanups and improvements - Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB. Driver API ---------- - Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to software interfaces such as tunnels. - Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8. - Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks. - Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of TCP zero-copy Rx. - Allow configuring completion queue event size. - Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation. - Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool. - Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches. - DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture): - replay and offload of host VLAN entries - offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces - FDB isolation and unicast filtering New hardware / drivers ---------------------- - Ethernet: - LAN937x T1 PHYs - Davicom DM9051 SPI NIC driver - Realtek RTL8367S, RTL8367RB-VB switch and MDIO - Microchip ksz8563 switches - Netronome NFP3800 SmartNICs - Fungible SmartNICs - MediaTek MT8195 switches - WiFi: - mt76: MediaTek mt7916 - mt76: MediaTek mt7921u USB adapters - brcmfmac: Broadcom BCM43454/6 - Mobile: - iosm: Intel M.2 7360 WWAN card Drivers ------- - Convert many drivers to the new phylink API built for split PCS designs but also simplifying other cases. - Intel Ethernet NICs: - add TTY for GNSS module for E810T device - improve AF_XDP performance - GTP-C and GTP-U filter offload - QinQ VLAN support - Mellanox Ethernet NICs (mlx5): - support xdp->data_meta - multi-buffer XDP - offload tc push_eth and pop_eth actions - Netronome Ethernet NICs (nfp): - flow-independent tc action hardware offload (police / meter) - AF_XDP - Other Ethernet NICs: - at803x: fiber and SFP support - xgmac: mdio: preamble suppression and custom MDC frequencies - r8169: enable ASPM L1.2 if system vendor flags it as safe - macb/gem: ZynqMP SGMII - hns3: add TX push mode - dpaa2-eth: software TSO - lan743x: multi-queue, mdio, SGMII, PTP - axienet: NAPI and GRO support - Mellanox Ethernet switches (mlxsw): - source and dest IP address rewrites - RJ45 ports - Marvell Ethernet switches (prestera): - basic routing offload - multi-chain TC ACL offload - NXP embedded Ethernet switches (ocelot & felix): - PTP over UDP with the ocelot-8021q DSA tagging protocol - basic QoS classification on Felix DSA switch using dcbnl - port mirroring for ocelot switches - Microchip high-speed industrial Ethernet (sparx5): - offloading of bridge port flooding flags - PTP Hardware Clock - Other embedded switches: - lan966x: PTP Hardward Clock - qca8k: mdio read/write operations via crafted Ethernet packets - Qualcomm 802.11ax WiFi (ath11k): - add LDPC FEC type and 802.11ax High Efficiency data in radiotap - enable RX PPDU stats in monitor co-exist mode - Intel WiFi (iwlwifi): - UHB TAS enablement via BIOS - band disablement via BIOS - channel switch offload - 32 Rx AMPDU sessions in newer devices - MediaTek WiFi (mt76): - background radar detection - thermal management improvements on mt7915 - SAR support for more mt76 platforms - MBSSID and 6 GHz band on mt7915 - RealTek WiFi: - rtw89: AP mode - rtw89: 160 MHz channels and 6 GHz band - rtw89: hardware scan - Bluetooth: - mt7921s: wake on Bluetooth, SCO over I2S, wide-band-speed (WBS) - Microchip CAN (mcp251xfd): - multiple RX-FIFOs and runtime configurable RX/TX rings - internal PLL, runtime PM handling simplification - improve chip detection and error handling after wakeup" * tag 'net-next-5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next: (2521 commits) llc: fix netdevice reference leaks in llc_ui_bind() drivers: ethernet: cpsw: fix panic when interrupt coaleceing is set via ethtool ice: don't allow to run ice_send_event_to_aux() in atomic ctx ice: fix 'scheduling while atomic' on aux critical err interrupt net/sched: fix incorrect vlan_push_eth dest field net: bridge: mst: Restrict info size queries to bridge ports net: marvell: prestera: add missing destroy_workqueue() in prestera_module_init() drivers: net: xgene: Fix regression in CRC stripping net: geneve: add missing netlink policy and size for IFLA_GENEVE_INNER_PROTO_INHERIT net: dsa: fix missing host-filtered multicast addresses net/mlx5e: Fix build warning, detected write beyond size of field iwlwifi: mvm: Don't fail if PPAG isn't supported selftests/bpf: Fix kprobe_multi test.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task can then enable that event like any other event, which will change the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start writing the event to the tracing buffer. - Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot up has tracing as well. - Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum, the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that array. - Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports. - Fixes to tracing error logging. - Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events for mapping). * tag 'trace-v5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (30 commits) tracing: Have type enum modifications copy the strings user_events: Add trace event call as root for low permission cases tracing/user_events: Use alloc_pages instead of kzalloc() for register pages tracing: Add snapshot at end of kernel boot up tracing: Have TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM affect trace event types as well tracing: Fix strncpy warning in trace_events_synth.c user_events: Prevent dyn_event delete racing with ioctl add/delete tracing: Add TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro tracing: Move the defines to create TRACE_EVENTS into their own files tracing: Add sample code for custom trace events tracing: Allow custom events to be added to the tracefs directory tracing: Fix last_cmd_set() string management in histogram code user_events: Fix potential uninitialized pointer while parsing field tracing: Fix allocation of last_cmd in last_cmd_set() user_events: Add documentation file user_events: Add sample code for typical usage user_events: Add self-test for validator boundaries user_events: Add self-test for perf_event integration user_events: Add self-test for dynamic_events integration user_events: Add self-test for ftrace integration ...

2022-01-14tracing: Add ustring operation to filtering string pointersSteven Rostedt1-0/+9
Since referencing user space pointers is special, if the user wants to filter on a field that is a pointer to user space, then they need to specify it. Add a ".ustring" attribute to the field name for filters to state that the field is pointing to user space such that the kernel can take the appropriate action to read that pointer.

2022-01-14tracing: Add test for user space strings when filtering on string pointersSteven Rostedt1-0/+10
Pingfan reported that the following causes a fault: echo "filename ~ \"cpu\"" > events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/filter echo 1 > events/syscalls/sys_enter_at/enable The reason is that trace event filter treats the user space pointer defined by "filename" as a normal pointer to compare against the "cpu" string.

Worse yet, the memory could not even be loaded yet, and a SEGFAULT could happen as well. This could be true for kernel space accessing as well. To be even more robust, test both kernel and user space strings. If the string fails to read, then simply have the filter fail. Note, TASK_SIZE is used to determine if the pointer is user or kernel space and the appropriate strncpy_from_kernel/user_nofault() function is used to copy the memory. For some architectures, the compare to TASK_SIZE may always pick user space or kernel space. If it gets it wrong, the only thing is that the filter will fail to match. In the future, this needs to be fixed to have the event denote which should be used. But failing a filter is much better than panicing the machine, and that can be solved later.
