State transitions from 1->0->1 and N->2->1 callbacks require RCU synchronization. Rather than performing the RCU synchronization every time the state change occurs, which is quite slow when many tracepoints are registered in batch, instead keep a snapshot of the RCU state on the most recent transitions which belong to a chain, and conditionally wait for a grace period on the last transition of the chain if one g.p. has not elapsed since the last snapshot. This applies to both RCU and SRCU. This brings the performance regression caused by commit 231264d6 ("Fix: tracepoint: static call function vs data state mismatch") back to what it was originally.

On a 1->0->1 callbacks transition, there is an issue with the new callback using the old callback's data. Considering __DO_TRACE_CALL: do { \ struct tracepoint_func *it_func_ptr; \ void *__data; \ it_func_ptr = \ rcu_dereference_raw((&__tracepoint_##name)->funcs); \ if (it_func_ptr) { \ __data = (it_func_ptr)->data; \ ----> [ delayed here on one CPU (e.g. vcpu preempted by the host) ] static_call(tp_func_##name)(__data, args); \ } \ } while (0) It has loaded the tp->funcs of the old callback, so it will try to use the old data. This can be fixed by adding a RCU sync anywhere in the 1->0->1 transition chain. On a N->2->1 transition, we need an rcu-sync because you may have a sequence of 3->2->1 (or 1->2->1) where the element 0 data is unchanged between 2->1, but was changed from 3->2 (or from 1->2), which may be observed by the static call. This can be fixed by adding an unconditional RCU sync in transition 2->1. Note, this fixes a correctness issue at the cost of adding a tremendous performance regression to the disabling of tracepoints. Before this commit: # trace-cmd start -e all # time trace-cmd start -p nop real 0m0.778s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.061s After this commit: # trace-cmd start -e all # time trace-cmd start -p nop real 0m10.593s user 0m0.017s sys 0m0.259s A follow up fix will introduce a more lightweight scheme based on RCU get_state and cond_sync, that will return the performance back to what it was. As both this change and the lightweight versions are complex on their own, for bisecting any issues that this may cause, they are kept as two separate changes.

On transition from 2->1 callees, we should be comparing .data rather than .func, because the same callback can be registered twice with different data, and what we care about here is that the data of array element 0 is unchanged to skip rcu sync.

The hardware latency detector (hwlat) has a mode that it runs one thread across CPUs. The logic to move from the currently running CPU to the next one in the list does a smp_processor_id() to find where it currently is. Unfortunately, it's done with preemption enabled, and this triggers a warning for using smp_processor_id() in a preempt enabled section. As it is only using smp_processor_id() to get information on where it currently is in order to simply move it to the next CPU, it doesn't really care if it got moved in the mean time. It will simply balance out later if such a case arises. Switch smp_processor_id() to raw_smp_processor_id() to quiet that warning.

When building ARCH=riscv allmodconfig with llvm-objcopy, the objcopy version warning from this script appears: WARNING: could not find objcopy version or version is less than 2.17. Local function references are disabled. The check_objcopy() function in scripts/recordmcount.pl is set up to parse GNU objcopy's version string, not llvm-objcopy's, which triggers the warning. Commit 799c4341 ("kbuild: thin archives make default for all archs") made binutils 2.20 mandatory and commit ba64beb1 ("kbuild: check the minimum assembler version in Kconfig") enforces this at configuration time so just remove check_objcopy() and $can_use_local instead, assuming --globalize-symbol is always available. llvm-objcopy has supported --globalize-symbol since LLVM 7.0.0 in 2018 and the minimum version for building the kernel with LLVM is 10.0.1 so there is no issue introduced: Link: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/ee5be798dae30d5f9414b01f76ff807edbc881aa Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210802210307.3202472-1-nathan@kernel.orgReviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

When working on my user space applications, I found a bug in the synthetic event code where the automated synthetic event field was not matching the event field calculation it was attached to. Looking deeper into it, it was because the calculation hist_field was not given a size. The synthetic event fields are matched to their hist_fields either by having the field have an identical string type, or if that does not match, then the size and signed values are used to match the fields. The problem arose when I tried to match a calculation where the fields were "unsigned int". My tool created a synthetic event of type "u32". But it failed to match. The string was: diff=field1-field2:onmatch(event).trace(synth,$diff) Adding debugging into the kernel, I found that the size of "diff" was 0. And since it was given "unsigned int" as a type, the histogram fallback code used size and signed. The signed matched, but the size of u32 (4) did not match zero, and the event failed to be created. This can be worse if the field you want to match is not one of the acceptable fields for a synthetic event. As event fields can have any type that is supported in Linux, this can cause an issue. For example, if a type is an enum. Then there's no way to use that with any calculations. Have the calculation field simply take on the size of what it is calculating.

Because of the significant overhead that retpolines pose on indirect calls, the tracepoint code was updated to use the new "static_calls" that can modify the running code to directly call a function instead of using an indirect caller, and this function can be changed at runtime. In the tracepoint code that calls all the registered callbacks that are attached to a tracepoint, the following is done: it_func_ptr = rcu_dereference_raw((&__tracepoint_##name)->funcs); if (it_func_ptr) { __data = (it_func_ptr)->data; static_call(tp_func_##name)(__data, args); } If there's just a single callback, the static_call is updated to just call that callback directly. Once another handler is added, then the static caller is updated to call the iterator, that simply loops over all the funcs in the array and calls each of the callbacks like the old method using indirect calling. The issue was discovered with a race between updating the funcs array and updating the static_call. The funcs array was updated first and then the static_call was updated. This is not an issue as long as the first element in the old array is the same as the first element in the new array. But that assumption is incorrect, because callbacks also have a priority field, and if there's a callback added that has a higher priority than the callback on the old array, then it will become the first callback in the new array. This means that it is possible to call the old callback with the new callback data element, which can cause a kernel panic. static_call = callback1() funcs[] = {callback1,data1}; callback2 has higher priority than callback1 CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- ----- new_funcs = {callback2,data2}, {callback1,data1} rcu_assign_pointer(tp->funcs, new_funcs); /* * Now tp->funcs has the new array * but the static_call still calls callback1 */ it_func_ptr = tp->funcs [ new_funcs ] data = it_func_ptr->data [ data2 ] static_call(callback1, data); /* Now callback1 is called with * callback2's data */ [ KERNEL PANIC ] update_static_call(iterator); To prevent this from happening, always switch the static_call to the iterator before assigning the tp->funcs to the new array. The iterator will always properly match the callback with its data. To trigger this bug: In one terminal: while :; do hackbench 50; done In another terminal echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/enable while :; do echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event_pid; sleep 0.5 echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event_pid; sleep 0.5 done And it doesn't take long to crash. This is because the set_event_pid adds a callback to the sched_waking tracepoint with a high priority, which will be called before the sched_waking trace event callback is called. Note, the removal to a single callback updates the array first, before changing the static_call to single callback, which is the proper order as the first element in the array is the same as what the static_call is being changed to.

alloc_synth_event() currently has the following code to initialize the event fields and dynamic_fields: for (i = 0, j = 0; i < n_fields; i++) { event->fields[i] = fields[i]; if (fields[i]->is_dynamic) { event->dynamic_fields[j] = fields[i]; event->dynamic_fields[j]->field_pos = i; event->dynamic_fields[j++] = fields[i]; event->n_dynamic_fields++; } } 1) It would make more sense to have all fields keep track of their field_pos. 2) event->dynmaic_fields[j] is assigned twice for no reason. 3) We can move updating event->n_dynamic_fields outside the loop, and just assign it to j. This combination makes the code much cleaner. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210721195341.29bb0f77@oasis.local.homeSigned-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Currently the histogram logic allows the user to write "cpu" in as an event field, and it will record the CPU that the event happened on. The problem with this is that there's a lot of events that have "cpu" as a real field, and using "cpu" as the CPU it ran on, makes it impossible to run histograms on the "cpu" field of events. For example, if I want to have a histogram on the count of the workqueue_queue_work event on its cpu field, running: ># echo 'hist:keys=cpu' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger Gives a misleading and wrong result. Change the command to "common_cpu" as no event should have "common_*" fields as that's a reserved name for fields used by all events. And this makes sense here as common_cpu would be a field used by all events. Now we can even do: ># echo 'hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu if cpu < 100' > events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/trigger ># cat events/workqueue/workqueue_queue_work/hist # event histogram # # trigger info: hist:keys=common_cpu,cpu:vals=hitcount:sort=hitcount:size=2048 if cpu < 100 [active] # { common_cpu: 0, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 1 { common_cpu: 0, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 1 { common_cpu: 7, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1 { common_cpu: 0, cpu: 7 } hitcount: 1 { common_cpu: 0, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 1 { common_cpu: 0, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 2 { common_cpu: 0, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 2 { common_cpu: 1, cpu: 1 } hitcount: 4 { common_cpu: 6, cpu: 6 } hitcount: 4 { common_cpu: 5, cpu: 5 } hitcount: 14 { common_cpu: 4, cpu: 4 } hitcount: 26 { common_cpu: 0, cpu: 0 } hitcount: 39 { common_cpu: 2, cpu: 2 } hitcount: 184 Now for backward compatibility, I added a trick. If "cpu" is used, and the field is not found, it will fall back to "common_cpu" and work as it did before. This way, it will still work for old programs that use "cpu" to get the actual CPU, but if the event has a "cpu" as a field, it will get that event's "cpu" field, which is probably what it wants anyway. I updated the tracefs/README to include documentation about both the common_timestamp and the common_cpu. This way, if that text is present in the README, then an application can know that common_cpu is supported over just plain "cpu".

The "rb_per_cpu_empty()" misinterpret the condition (as not-empty) when "head_page" and "commit_page" of "struct ring_buffer_per_cpu" points to the same buffer page, whose "buffer_data_page" is empty and "read" field is non-zero. An error scenario could be constructed as followed (kernel perspective): 1. All pages in the buffer has been accessed by reader(s) so that all of them will have non-zero "read" field. 2. Read and clear all buffer pages so that "rb_num_of_entries()" will return 0 rendering there's no more data to read. It is also required that the "read_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to the same page, while "head_page" is the next page of them. 3. Invoke "ring_buffer_lock_reserve()" with large enough "length" so that it shot pass the end of current tail buffer page. Now the "head_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to the same page. 4. Discard current event with "ring_buffer_discard_commit()", so that "head_page", "commit_page" and "tail_page" points to a page whose buffer data page is now empty. When the error scenario has been constructed, "tracing_read_pipe" will be trapped inside a deadloop: "trace_empty()" returns 0 since "rb_per_cpu_empty()" returns 0 when it hits the CPU containing such constructed ring buffer. Then "trace_find_next_entry_inc()" always return NULL since "rb_num_of_entries()" reports there's no more entry to read. Finally "trace_seq_to_user()" returns "-EBUSY" spanking "tracing_read_pipe" back to the start of the "waitagain" loop. I've also written a proof-of-concept script to construct the scenario and trigger the bug automatically, you can use it to trace and validate my reasoning above: https://github.com/aegistudio/RingBufferDetonator.git Tests has been carried out on linux kernel 5.14-rc2 (2734d6c1), my fixed version of kernel (for testing whether my update fixes the bug) and some older kernels (for range of affected kernels). Test result is also attached to the proof-of-concept repository.

When building modules(CONFIG_...=m), I found some of module versions are incorrect and set to 0. This can be found in build log for first clean build which shows WARNING: EXPORT symbol "XXXX" [drivers/XXX/XXX.ko] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned. But in second build(incremental build), the WARNING disappeared and the module version becomes valid CRC and make someone who want to change modules without updating kernel image can't insert their modules. The problematic code is + $(foreach n, $(filter-out FORCE,$^), \ + $(if $(wildcard $(n).symversions), \ + ; cat $(n).symversions >> $@.symversions)) For example: rm -f fs/notify/built-in.a.symversions ; rm -f fs/notify/built-in.a; \ llvm-ar cDPrST fs/notify/built-in.a fs/notify/fsnotify.o \ fs/notify/notification.o fs/notify/group.o ... `foreach n` shows nothing to `cat` into $(n).symversions because `if $(wildcard $(n).symversions)` return nothing, but actually they do exist during this line was executed. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 168580 Jun 13 19:10 fs/notify/fsnotify.o -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 111 Jun 13 19:10 fs/notify/fsnotify.o.symversions The reason is the $(n).symversions are generated at runtime, but Makefile wildcard function expends and checks the file exist or not during parsing the Makefile. Thus fix this by use `test` shell command to check the file existence in runtime. Rebase from both: 1. [https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210616080252.32046-1-lecopzer.chen@mediatek.com/] 2.

When a new CONFIG option is available, Kbuild shows a prompt to get the user input. $ make [ snip ] Core Scheduling for SMT (SCHED_CORE) [N/y/?] (NEW) This is the only interactive place in the build process. Commit 174a1dcc ("kbuild: sink stdout from cmd for silent build") suppressed Kconfig prompts as well because syncconfig is invoked by the 'cmd' macro. You cannot notice the fact that Kconfig is waiting for the user input. Use 'kecho' to show the equivalent short log without suppressing stdout from sub-make.

The commit 042da426 ("scripts/setlocalversion: simplify the short version part") reduces indentation. Unfortunately, it also changes behavior in a subtle way - if the user has empty "LOCALVERSION" variable, the plus sign is appended to the kernel version. It wasn't appended before. This patch reverts to the old behavior - we append the plus sign only if the LOCALVERSION variable is not set.

The "address" member of "struct probe_trace_point" uses long data type. If kernel is 64-bit and perf program is 32-bit, size of "address" variable is 32 bits. As a result, upper 32 bits of address read from kernel are truncated, an error occurs during address comparison in kprobe_warn_out_range().

This reverts commit 78869146. It's not clear why, but it causes unexplained problems in entirely unrelated xfs code. The most likely explanation is some slab corruption, possibly triggered due to CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. See [1]. It ends up having a few other problems too, like build errors on arch/arc, and Geert reporting it using much more memory on m68k [3] (it probably does so elsewhere too, but it is probably just more noticeable on m68k). The architecture issues (both build and memory use) are likely just because this change effectively force-enabled STACKDEPOT (along with a very bad default value for the stackdepot hash size). But together with the xfs issue, this all smells like "this commit was not ready" to me.

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon: "The bulk of the diffstat consists of changes to our uaccess routines so that they fall back to bytewise copying prior to reporting complete failure when the initial (multi-byte) access faults.
