If the divisor is a constant use specific division functions to
avoid extra branches when the trigger is hit.
If the divisor constant but not a power of 2, the division can be
replaced with a multiplication and shift in the following case:
Let X = dividend and Y = divisor.
Choose Z = some power of 2. If Y <= Z, then:
X / Y = (X * (Z / Y)) / Z
(Z / Y) is a constant (mult) which is calculated at parse time, so:
X / Y = (X * mult) / Z
The division by Z can be replaced by a shift since Z is a power of 2:
X / Y = (X * mult) >> shift
As long, as X < Z the results will not be off by more than 1.

Currently, the user can start only one instance of timerlat/osnoise
tracers and the tracers cannot run in parallel.
As starting point to add more flexibility, let's allow the same tracer to
run on different trace instances. The workload will start when the first
trace_array (instance) is registered and stop when the last instance
is unregistered.
So, while this patch allows the same tracer to run in multiple
instances (e.g., two instances running osnoise), it still does not allow
instances of timerlat and osnoise in parallel (e.g., one timerlat and
osnoise). That is because the osnoise: events have different behavior
depending on which tracer is enabled (osnoise or timerlat). Enabling
the parallel usage of these two tracers is in my TODO list.

osnoise/timerlat were built to run a single instance, and for this,
a single variable is enough to store the current struct trace_array
*tr with information about the tracing instance. This is done via
the *osnoise_trace variable. A trace_array represents a trace instance.
In preparation to support multiple instances, replace the
*osnoise_trace variable with an RCU protected list of instances.
The operations that refer to an instance now propagate to all
elements of the list (all instances).
Also, replace the osnoise_busy variable with a check if the list
has elements (busy).
No functional change is expected with this patch, i.e., only one
instance is allowed yet.

When writing a new CPU mask via osnoise/cpus, if the tracer is running,
the workload is restarted to follow the new cpumask. The restart is
currently done using osnoise_workload_start/stop(), which disables the
workload *and* the instrumentation. However, disabling the
instrumentation is not necessary.
Calling start/stop_per_cpu_kthreads() is enough to apply the new
osnoise/cpus config.

In preparation to support multiple instances, decouple the
osnoise/timelat workload from instance-specific tracing_cpumask.
Different instances can have conflicting cpumasks, making osnoise
workload management needlessly complex. Osnoise already has its
global cpumask.
I also thought about using the first instance mask, but the
"first" instance could be removed before the others.
This also fixes the problem that changing the tracing_mask was not
re-starting the trace.

As the documentation explained, ftrace_test_recursion_trylock()
and ftrace_test_recursion_unlock() were supposed to disable and
enable preemption properly, however currently this work is done
outside of the function, which could be missing by mistake.
And since the internal using of trace_test_and_set_recursion()
and trace_clear_recursion() also require preemption disabled, we
can just merge the logical.
This patch will make sure the preemption has been disabled when
trace_test_and_set_recursion() return bit >= 0, and
trace_clear_recursion() will enable the preemption if previously
enabled.

The division is a slow operation. If the divisor is a power of 2, use a

Results were obtained using Android's version of perf (simpleperf[1]) as
described below:
1. hist_field_div() is modified to call 2 test functions:
test_hist_field_div_[not]_optimized(); passing them the
same args. Use noinline and volatile to ensure these are
not optimized out by the compiler.
2. Create a hist event trigger that uses division:
events/kmem/rss_stat$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=size/<divisor>'
>> trigger
events/kmem/rss_stat$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:vals=$x'
>> trigger
3. Run Android's lmkd_test[2] to generate rss_stat events, and
record CPU samples with Android's simpleperf:
simpleperf record -a --exclude-perf --post-unwind=yes -m 16384 -g
-f 2000 -o perf.data
== Results ==
Divisor is a power of 2 (divisor == 32):
test_hist_field_div_not_optimized | 8,717,091 cpu-cycles
test_hist_field_div_optimized | 1,643,137 cpu-cycles
If the divisor is a power of 2, the optimized version is ~5.3x faster.

If the divisor is not a power of 2, as expected, the optimized version is
slightly slower (~24% slower).

The '-' in .sym-offset can confuse the hist trigger arithmetic
expression parsing. Simplify the handling of this by replacing the
'sym-offset' with 'symXoffset'. This allows us to correctly evaluate
expressions where the user may have inadvertently added a .sym-offset
modifier to one of the operands in an expression, instead of bailing
out. In this case the .sym-offset has no effect on the evaluation of the
expression. The only valid use of the .sym-offset is as a hist key
modifier.

The current histogram expression evaluation logic evaluates the
expression from right to left. This can lead to incorrect results
if the operations are not associative (as is the case for subtraction
and, the now added, division operators).
e.g. 16-8-4-2 should be 2 not 10 --> 16-8-4-2 = ((16-8)-4)-2
64/8/4/2 should be 1 not 16 --> 64/8/4/2 = ((64/8)/4)/2
Division and multiplication are currently limited to single operation
expression due to operator precedence support not yet implemented.
Rework the expression parsing to support the correct evaluation of
expressions containing operators of different precedences; and fix
the associativity error by evaluating expressions with operators of
the same precedence from left to right.
Examples:
(1) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:a=8,b=4,c=2,d=1,w=$a-$b-$c-$d' \
>> event/trigger
(2) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=$a/$b/3/2' >> event/trigger
(3) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:y=$a+10/$c*1024' >> event/trigger
(4) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:z=$a/$b+$c*$d' >> event/trigger

Adds basic support for division and multiplication operations for
hist trigger variable expressions.
For simplicity this patch only supports, division and multiplication
for a single operation expression (e.g. x=$a/$b), as currently
expressions are always evaluated right to left. This can lead to some
incorrect results:
e.g. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=8-4-2' >> event/trigger
8-4-2 should evaluate to 2 i.e. (8-4)-2
but currently x evaluate to 6 i.e. 8-(4-2)
Multiplication and division in sub-expressions will work correctly, once
correct operator precedence support is added (See next patch in this
series).
For the undefined case of division by 0, the histogram expression
evaluates to (u64)(-1). Since this cannot be detected when the
expression is created, it is the responsibility of the user to be
aware and account for this possibility.
Examples:
echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:a=8,b=4,x=$a/$b' \
>> event/trigger
echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:y=5*$b' \
>> event/trigger

Currently hist trigger expressions don't support the use of numeric

e.g. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=$y-1234'
--> is not valid expression syntax
Having the ability to use numeric constants in hist triggers supports
a wider range of expressions for creating variables.
Add support for creating trace event histogram variables from numeric
literals.
e.g. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=1234,y=size-1024' >> event/trigger
A negative numeric constant is created, using unary minus operator
(parentheses are required).
e.g. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:z=-(2)' >> event/trigger
Constants can be used with division/multiplication (added in the
next patch in this series) to implement granularity filters for frequent
trace events. For instance we can limit emitting the rss_stat
trace event to when there is a 512KB cross over in the rss size:
# Create a synthetic event to monitor instead of the high frequency
# rss_stat event
echo 'rss_stat_throttled unsigned int mm_id; unsigned int curr;
int member; long size' >> tracing/synthetic_events
# Create a hist trigger that emits the synthetic rss_stat_throttled
# event only when the rss size crosses a 512KB boundary.
echo 'hist:keys=keys=mm_id,member:bucket=size/0x80000:onchange($bucket)
.rss_stat_throttled(mm_id,curr,member,size)'
>> events/kmem/rss_stat/trigger
A use case for using constants with addition/subtraction is not yet
known, but for completeness the use of constants are supported for all
operators.

Stop tracing while reading the trace file by default, to prevent
the test results while checking it and to avoid taking a long time
to check the result.
If there is any testcase which wants to test the tracing while reading
the trace file, please override this setting inside the test case.
This also recovers the pause-on-trace when clean it up.

Add a test case for stacktrace from kretprobe handler and
nested kretprobe handlers.
This test checks both of stack trace inside kretprobe handler
and stack trace from pt_regs. Those stack trace must include
actual function return address instead of kretprobe trampoline.
The nested kretprobe stacktrace test checks whether the unwinder
can correctly unwind the call frame on the stack which has been
modified by the kretprobe.
Since the stacktrace on kretprobe is correctly fixed only on x86,
this introduces a meta kconfig ARCH_CORRECT_STACKTRACE_ON_KRETPROBE
which tells user that the stacktrace on kretprobe is correct or not.
The test results will be shown like below;

Using the linker script to fix an issue where some archs call the
function tracer with just the ip (instruction pointer) and pip (parent
instruction pointer) where as more up to date archs also pass in the
associated ftrace_ops and the ftrace_regs pointer, the generic code
will be called either with two parameters or four. To avoid any C
undefined behavior of calling two parameters to four or four to two
parameter function, two functions are created, where a preprocessor
macro uses the one that matches the architecture. As the function
pointers for them may be different, a typecast is used. But this
triggers issues with newer compilers that will fail due to -Werror.
A linker trick is now used to map the generic function to the function
that is used (note the generic function is only used to set the default
function callback). The linker trick defines ftrace_ops_list_func (the
generic function) to arch_ftrace_ops_list_func (the arch defined one).
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200617165616.52241bde@oasis.local.home/
But this fails sh arch because their linker script is included in their
compressed image that does not define arch_ftrace_ops_list_func at all
sh4-linux-ld:arch/sh/boot/compressed/../../kernel/vmlinux.lds:32: undefined symbol `arch_ftrace_ops_list_func' referenced in expression
Included a stub by that name in the misc.c to allow the code to
compile and link, even though it's not used.

Since the kretprobe replaces the function return address with
the kretprobe_trampoline on the stack, arm unwinder shows it
instead of the correct return address.
This finds the correct return address from the per-task
kretprobe_instances list and verify it is in between the
caller fp and callee fp.
Note that this supports both GCC and clang if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y
and CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND=n. For the ARM unwinder, this is still
not working correctly.

Currently kretprobe on ARM just fills r0-r11 of pt_regs, but
that is not enough for the stacktrace. Moreover, from the user
kretprobe handler, stacktrace needs a frame pointer on the
__kretprobe_trampoline.
This adds a frame pointer on __kretprobe_trampoline for both gcc
and clang case. Those have different frame pointer so we need
different but similar stack on pt_regs.
Gcc makes the frame pointer (fp) to point the 'pc' address of
the {fp, ip (=sp), lr, pc}, this means {r11, r13, r14, r15}.
Thus if we save the r11 (fp) on pt_regs->r12, we can make this
set on the end of pt_regs.
On the other hand, Clang makes the frame pointer to point the
'fp' address of {fp, lr} on stack. Since the next to the
pt_regs->lr is pt_regs->sp, I reused the pair of pt_regs->fp
and pt_regs->ip.
So this stores the 'lr' on pt_regs->ip and make the fp to point
pt_regs->fp.
For both cases, saves __kretprobe_trampoline address to
pt_regs->lr, so that the stack tracer can identify this frame
pointer has been made by the __kretprobe_trampoline.
Note that if the CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not set, this keeps
fp as is.

Currently the stacktrace on clang compiled arm kernel uses the 'lr'
register to find the first frame address from pt_regs. However, that
is wrong after calling another function, because the 'lr' register
is used by 'bl' instruction and never be recovered.
As same as gcc arm kernel, directly use the frame pointer (r11) of
the pt_regs to find the first frame address.
Note that this fixes kretprobe stacktrace issue only with
CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER=y. For the CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM,
we need another fix.

Since the kretprobe replaces the function return address with

instead of the correct return address.
This checks whether the next return address is the
__kretprobe_trampoline(), and if so, try to find the correct
return address from the kretprobe instance list. For this purpose
this adds 'kr_cur' loop cursor to memorize the current kretprobe
instance.
