The failure path of allocating ei goes to a path that dereferences ei. Add another label that skips over the ei dereferences to do the rest of the clean up.

When building with clang and CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_FULL=y, there is an error due to a cast in eventfs_create_events_dir(): fs/tracefs/event_inode.c:734:10: error: casting from randomized structure pointer type 'struct dentry *' to 'struct eventfs_inode *' 734 | return (struct eventfs_inode *)dentry; | ^ 1 error generated. Use the ERR_CAST() function to resolve the error, as it was designed for this exact situation (casting an error pointer to another type).

The update to removing the eventfs_file changed the way the events top level directory was handled. Instead of returning a dentry, it now returns the eventfs_inode. In this changed, the removing of the events top level directory is not much different than removing any of the other directories. Because of this, the removal just called eventfs_remove_dir() instead of eventfs_remove_events_dir(). Although eventfs_remove_dir() does the clean up, it misses out on the dget() of the ei->dentry done in eventfs_create_events_dir(). It makes more sense to match eventfs_create_events_dir() with a specific function eventfs_remove_events_dir() and this specific function can then perform the dput() to the dentry that had the dget() when it was created.

The function that the kprobe_args_char and kprobes_arg_string attaches to for its test has changed its name once again. Now we need to check for eventfs_create_dir(), and if it exists, use that, otherwise check for eventfs_add_dir() and if that exists use that, otherwise use the original tracefs_create_dir()!

Instead of having a descriptor for every file represented in the eventfs directory, only have the directory itself represented. Change the API to send in a list of entries that represent all the files in the directory (but not other directories). The entry list contains a name and a callback function that will be used to create the files when they are accessed. struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_events_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent, const struct eventfs_entry *entries, int size, void *data); is used for the top level eventfs directory, and returns an eventfs_inode that will be used by: struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct eventfs_inode *parent, const struct eventfs_entry *entries, int size, void *data); where both of the above take an array of struct eventfs_entry entries for every file that is in the directory. The entries are defined by: typedef int (*eventfs_callback)(const char *name, umode_t *mode, void **data, const struct file_operations **fops); struct eventfs_entry { const char *name; eventfs_callback callback; }; Where the name is the name of the file and the callback gets called when the file is being created. The callback passes in the name (in case the same callback is used for multiple files), a pointer to the mode, data and fops. The data will be pointing to the data that was passed in eventfs_create_dir() or eventfs_create_events_dir() but may be overridden to point to something else, as it will be used to point to the inode->i_private that is created. The information passed back from the callback is used to create the dentry/inode. If the callback fills the data and the file should be created, it must return a positive number. On zero or negative, the file is ignored. This logic may also be used as a prototype to convert entire pseudo file systems into just-in-time allocation. The "show_events_dentry" file has been updated to show the directories, and any files they have.

Users need to know how to make events persist now that we allow for that. We also now allow the dynamic_events file to create events by utilizing the persist flag during event register. Add back in to documentation how /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events can be used to create persistent user_events. Add a section under registering for the currently supported flags (USER_EVENT_REG_PERSIST) and the required permissions. Add a note under deleting that deleting a persistent event also requires sufficient permission.

There are several scenarios that have come up where having a user_event persist even if the process that registered it exits. The main one is having a daemon create events on bootup that shouldn't get deleted if the daemon has to exit or reload. Another is within OpenTelemetry exporters, they wish to potentially check if a user_event exists on the system to determine if exporting the data out should occur. The user_event in this case must exist even in the absence of the owning process running (such as the above daemon case). Expose the previously internal flag USER_EVENT_REG_PERSIST to user processes. Upon register or delete of events with this flag, ensure the user is perfmon_capable to prevent random user processes with access to tracefs from creating events that persist after exit.

The ring buffer of global_trace is set to the minimum size in order to save memory on boot up and then it will be expand when some trace feature enabled. However currently operations under an instance can also cause global_trace ring buffer being expanded, and the expanded memory would be wasted if global_trace then not being used. See following case, we enable 'sched_switch' event in instance 'A', then ring buffer of global_trace is unexpectedly expanded to be 1410KB, also the '(expanded: 1408)' from 'buffer_size_kb' of instance is confusing. # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # mkdir instances/A # cat buffer_size_kb 7 (expanded: 1408) # cat instances/A/buffer_size_kb 1410 (expanded: 1408) # echo sched:sched_switch > instances/A/set_event # cat buffer_size_kb 1410 # cat instances/A/buffer_size_kb 1410 To fix it, we can: - Make 'ring_buffer_expanded' as a member of 'struct trace_array'; - Make 'ring_buffer_expanded' of instance is defaultly true, global_trace is defaultly false; - In order not to expose 'global_trace' outside of file 'kernel/trace/trace.c', introduce trace_set_ring_buffer_expanded() to set 'ring_buffer_expanded' as 'true'; - Pass the expected trace_array to tracing_update_buffers().

Drivers must not reference functions marked with __exit as these likely are not available when the code is built-in.

When a task polls waiting for a percentage of the ring buffer to be filled, the writer still will wake it up at every event. Add the polling's percentage to the "shortest_full" list to tell the writer when to wake it up. - For eventfs dir lookups on dynamic events, an event system's only event could be removed, leaving its dentry with no children. This is totally legitimate. But in eventfs_release() it must not access the children array, as it is only allocated when the dentry has children. * tag 'trace-v6.6-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: eventfs: Test for dentries array allocated in eventfs_release() tracing/user_events: Align set_bit() address for all archs tracing: relax trace_event_eval_update() execution with cond_resched() ring-buffer: Update "shortest_full" in polling

The dcache_dir_open_wrapper() could be called when a dynamic event is being deleted leaving a dentry with no children. In this case the dlist->dentries array will never be allocated. This needs to be checked for in eventfs_release(), otherwise it will trigger a NULL pointer dereference.

All architectures should use a long aligned address passed to set_bit(). User processes can pass either a 32-bit or 64-bit sized value to be updated when tracing is enabled when on a 64-bit kernel. Both cases are ensured to be naturally aligned, however, that is not enough. The address must be long aligned without affecting checks on the value within the user process which require different adjustments for the bit for little and big endian CPUs. Add a compat flag to user_event_enabler that indicates when a 32-bit value is being used on a 64-bit kernel. Long align addresses and correct the bit to be used by set_bit() to account for this alignment. Ensure compat flags are copied during forks and used during deletion clears.

When kernel is compiled without preemption, the eval_map_work_func() (which calls trace_event_eval_update()) will not be preempted up to its complete execution. This can actually cause a problem since if another CPU call stop_machine(), the call will have to wait for the eval_map_work_func() function to finish executing in the workqueue before being able to be scheduled. This problem was observe on a SMP system at boot time, when the CPU calling the initcalls executed clocksource_done_booting() which in the end calls stop_machine(). We observed a 1 second delay because one CPU was executing eval_map_work_func() and was not preempted by the stop_machine() task. Adding a call to cond_resched() in trace_event_eval_update() allows other tasks to be executed and thus continue working asynchronously like before without blocking any pending task at boot time.

It was discovered that the ring buffer polling was incorrectly stating that read would not block, but that's because polling did not take into account that reads will block if the "buffer-percent" was set. Instead, the ring buffer polling would say reads would not block if there was any data in the ring buffer. This was incorrect behavior from a user space point of view. This was fixed by commit 42fb0a1e by having the polling code check if the ring buffer had more data than what the user specified "buffer percent" had. The problem now is that the polling code did not register itself to the writer that it wanted to wait for a specific "full" value of the ring buffer. The result was that the writer would wake the polling waiter whenever there was a new event. The polling waiter would then wake up, see that there's not enough data in the ring buffer to notify user space and then go back to sleep. The next event would wake it up again. Before the polling fix was added, the code would wake up around 100 times for a hackbench 30 benchmark. After the "fix", due to the constant waking of the writer, it would wake up over 11,0000 times! It would never leave the kernel, so the user space behavior was still "correct", but this definitely is not the desired effect. To fix this, have the polling code add what it's waiting for to the "shortest_full" variable, to tell the writer not to wake it up if the buffer is not as full as it expects to be. Note, after this fix, it appears that the waiter is now woken up around 2x the times it was before (~200). This is a tremendous improvement from the 11,000 times, but I will need to spend some time to see why polling is more aggressive in its wakeups than the read blocking code.

So the atomic variable __kexec_lock and kexec_trylock() can't guarantee the serialization of crash hotplug handling. Here, add a new mutex lock __crash_hotplug_lock to serialize crash hotplug handling specifically. This doesn't impact the usage of __kexec_lock.

When calling mbind() with MPOL_MF_{MOVE|MOVEALL} | MPOL_MF_STRICT, kernel should attempt to migrate all existing pages, and return -EIO if there is misplaced or unmovable page. Then commit 6f4576e3 ("mempolicy: apply page table walker on queue_pages_range()") messed up the return value and didn't break VMA scan early ianymore when MPOL_MF_STRICT alone. The return value problem was fixed by commit a7f40cfe ("mm: mempolicy: make mbind() return -EIO when MPOL_MF_STRICT is specified"), but it broke the VMA walk early if unmovable page is met, it may cause some pages are not migrated as expected. The code should conceptually do: if (MPOL_MF_MOVE|MOVEALL) scan all vmas try to migrate the existing pages return success else if (MPOL_MF_MOVE* | MPOL_MF_STRICT) scan all vmas try to migrate the existing pages return -EIO if unmovable or migration failed else /* MPOL_MF_STRICT alone */ break early if meets unmovable and don't call mbind_range() at all else /* none of those flags */ check the ranges in test_walk, EFAULT without mbind_range() if discontig. Fixed the behavior.
