All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.===== begin semantic patch =====

The enums for FTRACE_ENABLE_MCOUNT and FTRACE_DISABLE_MCOUNT were
used as commands to ftrace_run_update_code(). But these commands
were used by the old nasty ftrace daemon that has long been slain.This is a clean up patch to remove the references to these enums
and simplify the code a little.Reported-by: Wu Zhangjin

If we do:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug
# echo 'do_IRQ:traceon schedule:traceon sys_write:traceon' > \
set_ftrace_filter
# cat set_ftrace_filterWe get the following output:
#### all functions enabled ####
sys_write:traceon:unlimited
schedule:traceon:unlimited
do_IRQ:traceon:unlimitedThis outputs two lists. One is the fact that all functions are
currently enabled for function tracing, the other has three probed
functions, which happen to have 'traceon' as their commands.Currently, when reading the first list (functions enabled) the
seq_file code will receive a "NULL" from the t_next() function
causing it to exit early. This makes "read()" from userspace stop
reading the code at this boarder. Although read is allowed to do this,
some (broken) applications might consider this an end of file and
stop early.This patch adds the start of the second list to t_next() when it
finishes the first list. It is a simple change and gives the
set_ftrace_filter file nicer reading ability.Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

This patch keeps track of the index within the elements of
set_ftrace_filter and if the position goes backwards, it nicely
resets and starts from the beginning again.This allows for lseek and pread to work properly now.

The set_ftrace_filter uses seq_file and reads from two lists. The
pointer returned by t_next() can either be of type struct dyn_ftrace
or struct ftrace_func_probe. If there is a bug (there was one)
the wrong pointer may be used and the reference can cause an oops.This patch makes t_next() and friends only return the iterator structure
which now has a pointer of type struct dyn_ftrace and struct
ftrace_func_probe. The t_show() can now test if the pointer is NULL or
not and if the pointer exists, it is guaranteed to be of the correct type.Now if there's a bug, only wrong data will be shown but not an oops.

After the filtered functions are read, the probed functions are read
from the hash in set_ftrace_filter. When the hashed probed functions
are read, the *pos passed in is reset. Instead of modifying the pos
given to the read function, just record the pos where the filtered
functions ended and subtract from that.Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

Be sure to avoid entering t_show() with FTRACE_ITER_HASH set without
having properly started the iterator to iterate the hash. This case is
degenerate and, as discovered by Robert Swiecki, can cause t_hash_show()
to misuse a pointer. This causes a NULL ptr deref with possible security
implications. Tracked as CVE-2010-3079.Cc: Robert Swiecki

Reading the file set_ftrace_filter does three things.
1) shows whether or not filters are set for the function tracer
2) shows what functions are set for the function tracer
3) shows what triggers are set on any functions3 is independent from 1 and 2.
The way this file currently works is that it is a state machine,
and as you read it, it may change state. But this assumption breaks
when you use lseek() on the file. The state machine gets out of sync
and the t_show() may use the wrong pointer and cause a kernel oops.Luckily, this will only kill the app that does the lseek, but the app
dies while holding a mutex. This prevents anyone else from using the
set_ftrace_filter file (or any other function tracing file for that matter).A real fix for this is to rewrite the code, but that is too much for
a -rc release or stable. This patch simply disables llseek on the
set_ftrace_filter() file for now, and we can do the proper fix for the
next major release.Reported-by: Robert Swiecki

The ftrace_preempt_disable/enable functions were to address a
recursive race caused by the function tracer. The function tracer
traces all functions which makes it easily susceptible to recursion.
One area was preempt_enable(). This would call the scheduler and
the schedulre would call the function tracer and loop.
(So was it thought).The ftrace_preempt_disable/enable was made to protect against recursion
inside the scheduler by storing the NEED_RESCHED flag. If it was
set before the ftrace_preempt_disable() it would not call schedule
on ftrace_preempt_enable(), thinking that if it was set before then
it would have already scheduled unless it was already in the scheduler.This worked fine except in the case of SMP, where another task would set
the NEED_RESCHED flag for a task on another CPU, and then kick off an
IPI to trigger it. This could cause the NEED_RESCHED to be saved at
ftrace_preempt_disable() but the IPI to arrive in the the preempt
disabled section. The ftrace_preempt_enable() would not call the scheduler
because the flag was already set before entring the section.This bug would cause a missed preemption check and cause lower latencies.
Investigating further, I found that the recusion caused by the function
tracer was not due to schedule(), but due to preempt_schedule(). Now
that preempt_schedule is completely annotated with notrace, the recusion
no longer is an issue.Reported-by: Thomas Gleixner

This patch adds data to be passed to tracepoint callbacks.
The created functions from DECLARE_TRACE() now need a mandatory data
parameter. For example:DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, int value, value)
Will create the register function:
int register_trace_mytracepoint((void(*)(void *data, int value))probe,
void *data);As the first argument, all callbacks (probes) must take a (void *data)
parameter. So a callback for the above tracepoint will look like:void myprobe(void *data, int value)
{
}The callback may choose to ignore the data parameter.
This change allows callbacks to register a private data pointer along
with the function probe.void mycallback(void *data, int value);
register_trace_mytracepoint(mycallback, mydata);
Then the mycallback() will receive the "mydata" as the first parameter
before the args.A more detailed example:
DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(int status), TP_ARGS(status));
/* In the C file */
DEFINE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(int status), TP_ARGS(status));
[...]
trace_mytracepoint(status);
/* In a file registering this tracepoint */
int my_callback(void *data, int status)
{
struct my_struct my_data = data;
[...]
}[...]
my_data = kmalloc(sizeof(*my_data), GFP_KERNEL);
init_my_data(my_data);
register_trace_mytracepoint(my_callback, my_data);The same callback can also be registered to the same tracepoint as long
as the data registered is different. Note, the data must also be used
to unregister the callback:unregister_trace_mytracepoint(my_callback, my_data);
Because of the data parameter, tracepoints declared this way can not have
no args. That is:DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(void), TP_ARGS());
will cause an error.
If no arguments are needed, a new macro can be used instead:
DECLARE_TRACE_NOARGS(mytracepoint);
Since there are no arguments, the proto and args fields are left out.
This is part of a series to make the tracepoint footprint smaller:
text data bss dec hex filename
4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig
4914025 1088868 861512 6864405 68be15 vmlinux.class
4918492 1084612 861512 6864616 68bee8 vmlinux.tracepointAgain, this patch also increases the size of the kernel, but
lays the ground work for decreasing it.v5: Fixed net/core/drop_monitor.c to handle these updates.
v4: Moved the DECLARE_TRACE() DECLARE_TRACE_NOARGS out of the
#ifdef CONFIG_TRACE_POINTS, since the two are the same in both
cases. The __DECLARE_TRACE() is what changes.
Thanks to Frederic Weisbecker for pointing this out.v3: Made all register_* functions require data to be passed and
all callbacks to take a void * parameter as its first argument.
This makes the calling functions comply with C standards.Also added more comments to the modifications of DECLARE_TRACE().
v2: Made the DECLARE_TRACE() have the ability to pass arguments
and added a new DECLARE_TRACE_NOARGS() for tracepoints that
do not need any arguments.Acked-by: Mathieu Desnoyers

When sleep_time is off the function profiler ignores the time that a task
is scheduled out. When the task is scheduled out a timestamp is taken.
When the task is scheduled back in, the timestamp is compared to the
current time and the saved calltimes are adjusted accordingly.But when stopping the function profiler, the sched switch hook that
does this adjustment was stopped before shutting down the tracer.
This allowed some tasks to not get their timestamps set when they
scheduled out. When the function profiler started again, this would
skew the times of the scheduler functions.This patch moves the stopping of the sched switch to after the function
profiler is stopped. It also ignores zero set calltimes, which may
happen on start up.Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

When combined with function graph tracing the ftrace function profiler
also prints the average run time of functions. While this gives us some
good information, it doesn't tell us anything about the variance of the
run times of the function. This change prints out the s^2 sample
standard deviation alongside the average.This change adds one entry to the profile record structure. This
increases the memory footprint of the function profiler by 1/3 on a
32-bit system, and by 1/5 on a 64-bit system when function graphing is
enabled, though the memory is only allocated when the profiler is turned
on. During the profiling, one extra line of code adds the squared
calltime to the new record entry, so this should not adversly affect
performance.Note that the square of the sample standard deviation is printed because
there is no sqrt implementation for unsigned long long in the kernel.Signed-off-by: Chase Douglas

…it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

If the graph tracer is active, and a task is forked but the allocating of
the processes graph stack fails, it can cause crash later on.This is due to the temporary stack being NULL, but the curr_ret_stack
variable is copied from the parent. If it is not -1, then in
ftrace_graph_probe_sched_switch() the following:for (index = next->curr_ret_stack; index >= 0; index--)
next->ret_stack[index].calltime += timestamp;Will cause a kernel OOPS.

Replace the calls to read_barrier_depends() in
ftrace_list_func() with rcu_dereference_raw() to improve
readability. The reason that we use rcu_dereference_raw() here
is that removed entries are never freed, instead they are simply
leaked. This is one of a very few cases where use of
rcu_dereference_raw() is the long-term right answer. And I
don't yet know of any others. ;-)Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

The declaration of ftrace_set_func() is at the start of the ftrace.c file
and wrapped with a #ifdef CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH condition. If function
graph tracing is enabled but CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE is not, a warning
about that function being declared static and unused is given.This really should have been placed within the CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH
condition that uses ftrace_set_func().Moving the declaration down fixes the warning and makes the code cleaner.

I don't see why we can only clear all functions from the filter.
After patching:
# echo sys_open > set_graph_function
# echo sys_close >> set_graph_function
# cat set_graph_function
sys_open
sys_close
# echo '!sys_close' >> set_graph_function
# cat set_graph_function

Remove record freezing. Because kprobes never puts probe on
ftrace's mcount call anymore, it doesn't need ftrace to check
whether kprobes on it.Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu

Introducing *_text_reserved functions for checking the text
address range is partially reserved or not. This patch provides
checking routines for x86 smp alternatives and dynamic ftrace.
Since both functions modify fixed pieces of kernel text, they
should reserve and protect those from other dynamic text
modifier, like kprobes.This will also be extended when introducing other subsystems
which modify fixed pieces of kernel text. Dynamic text modifiers
should avoid those.Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu

For '*foo' pattern, we should allow any string ending with
'foo', but ftrace filter incorrectly disallows strings
like bar_foo_foo:# echo '*io' > set_ftrace_filter
# cat set_ftrace_filter | grep 'req_bio_endio'
# cat available_filter_functions | grep 'req_bio_endio'

I found a weird behavior:

bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# cat set_ftrace_filter
fuse_dev_fasync
fuse_dev_poll
fuse_copy_doWe should call trace_parser_clear() no matter ftrace_process_regex()
returns 0 or -errno, otherwise we will actually take the unaccepted

Currently it doesn't warn user on invald value:
# echo nonexist_symbol > set_ftrace_filter
or:
# echo 'nonexist_symbol:mod:fuse' > set_ftrace_filterBetter make it return failure.

We are using strncpy in the wrong way to copy the ftrace_graph_filter
boot param because we pass the buffer size instead of the max string
size it can contain (buffer size - 1). The end result might not be
NULL terminated as we are abusing the max string size.Lets use strlcpy() instead.
