Now that there are three different instances of doing the addition trick
to the preempt_count() and NMI_MASK, HARDIRQ_MASK and SOFTIRQ_OFFSET
macros, it deserves a helper function defined in the preempt.h header.
Add the interrupt_context_level() helper and replace the three instances
that do that logic with it.

If CONFIG_CFI_CLANG=y, attempting to read an event histogram will cause
the kernel to panic due to failed CFI check.
1. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid' >> events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
2. cat events/sched/sched_switch/hist
3. kernel panics on attempting to read hist
This happens because the sort() function expects a generic
int (*)(const void *, const void *) pointer for the compare function.
To prevent this CFI failure, change tracing map cmp_entries_* function
signatures to match this.
Also, fix the build error reported by the kernel test robot [1].

In an effort to enable -Wcast-function-type in the top-level Makefile to
support Control Flow Integrity builds, all function casts need to be
removed.
This means that ftrace_ops_list_func() can no longer be defined as
ftrace_ops_no_ops(). The reason for ftrace_ops_no_ops() is to use that when
an architecture calls ftrace_ops_list_func() with only two parameters
(called from assembly). And to make sure there's no C side-effects, those
archs call ftrace_ops_no_ops() which only has two parameters, as
ftrace_ops_list_func() has four parameters.
Instead of a typecast, use vmlinux.lds.h to define ftrace_ops_list_func() to
arch_ftrace_ops_list_func() that will define the proper set of parameters.

When building the files in the tracefs file system, do not by default set

As tracing can leak sensitive information, it should never by default

others to have access, which may be useful for creating a honeypot and
seeing who takes advantage of it and roots the machine.

The tracefs file system is by default mounted such that only root user can
access it. But there are legitimate reasons to create a group and allow
those added to the group to have access to tracing. By changing the
permissions of the tracefs mount point to allow access, it will allow
group access to the tracefs directory.
There should not be any real reason to allow all access to the tracefs
directory as it contains sensitive information. Have the default
permission of directories being created not have any OTH (other) bits set,
such that an admin that wants to give permission to a group has to first
disable all OTH bits in the file system.

Reported-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
When the trace_pid_list was created, the default pid max was 32768.
Creating a bitmask that can hold one bit for all 32768 took up 4096 (one
page). Having a one page bitmask was not much of a problem, and that was
used for mapping pids. But today, systems are bigger and can run more
tasks, and now the default pid_max is usually set to 4194304. Which means
to handle that many pids requires 524288 bytes. Worse yet, the pid_max can
be set to 2^30 (1073741824 or 1G) which would take 134217728 (128M) of
memory to store this array.
Since the pid_list array is very sparsely populated, it is a huge waste of
memory to store all possible bits for each pid when most will not be set.
Instead, use a page table scheme to store the array, and allow this to
handle up to 30 bit pids.
The pid_mask will start out with 256 entries for the first 8 MSB bits.
This will cost 1K for 32 bit architectures and 2K for 64 bit. Each of
these will have a 256 array to store the next 8 bits of the pid (another
1 or 2K). These will hold an 2K byte bitmask (which will cover the LSB
14 bits or 16384 pids).
When the trace_pid_list is allocated, it will have the 1/2K upper bits
allocated, and then it will allocate a cache for the next upper chunks and
the lower chunks (default 6 of each). Then when a bit is "set", these
chunks will be pulled from the free list and added to the array. If the
free list gets down to a lever (default 2), it will trigger an irqwork
that will refill the cache back up.
On clearing a bit, if the clear causes the bitmask to be zero, that chunk
will then be placed back into the free cache for later use, keeping the
need to allocate more down to a minimum.

Instead of having the logic that does trace_pid_list open coded, wrap it in
abstract functions. This will allow a rewrite of the logic that implements
the trace_pid_list without affecting the users.
Note, this causes a change in behavior. Every time a pid is written into
the set_*_pid file, it creates a new list and uses RCU to update it. If
pid_max is lowered, but there was a pid currently in the list that was
higher than pid_max, those pids will now be removed on updating the list.
The old behavior kept that from happening.
The rewrite of the pid_list logic will no longer depend on pid_max,
and will return the old behavior.

In x86, the fake return address on the stack saved by
__kretprobe_trampoline() will be replaced with the real return
address after returning from trampoline_handler(). Before fixing
the return address, the real return address can be found in the
'current->kretprobe_instances'.
However, since there is a window between updating the
'current->kretprobe_instances' and fixing the address on the stack,
if an interrupt happens at that timing and the interrupt handler
does stacktrace, it may fail to unwind because it can not get
the correct return address from 'current->kretprobe_instances'.
This will eliminate that window by fixing the return address
right before updating 'current->kretprobe_instances'.

The csky specific arch_check_ftrace_location() shadows a weak
implementation of the function in core code that offers the same
functionality but with additional error checking.
Drop the architecture specific function as a step towards further
cleanup in core code.

The function prepare_kprobe() is called during kprobe registration and
is responsible for ensuring any architecture related preparation for
the kprobe is done before returning.
One of two versions of prepare_kprobe() is chosen depending on the
availability of KPROBE_ON_FTRACE in the kernel configuration.
Simplify the code by dropping the version when KPROBE_ON_FTRACE is not
selected - instead relying on kprobe_ftrace() to return false when
KPROBE_ON_FTRACE is not set.
No functional change.

The "enabled" file provides a debugfs interface to arm / disarm
kprobes in the kernel. In order to parse the buffer containing the
values written from userspace, the callback manually parses the user
input to convert it to a boolean value.
As taking a string value from userspace and converting it to boolean
is a common operation, a helper kstrtobool_from_user() is already
available in the kernel. Update the callback to use the common helper
to parse the write buffer from userspace.

debugfs_create_file() takes a pointer argument that can be used during
file operation callbacks (accessible via i_private in the inode
structure). An obvious requirement is for the pointer to refer to
valid memory when used.
When creating the debugfs file to dynamically enable / disable
kprobes, a pointer to local variable is passed to
debugfs_create_file(); which will go out of scope when the init
function returns. The reason this hasn't triggered random memory
corruption is because the pointer is not accessed during the debugfs
file callbacks.
Since the enabled state is managed by the kprobes_all_disabled global
variable, the local variable is not needed. Fix the incorrect (and
unnecessary) usage of local variable during debugfs_file_create() by
passing NULL instead.
