Running the following two commands in parallel on a multi-processor
AArch64 machine can sporadically produce an unexpected warning about
duplicate histogram entries:
$ while true; do

The problem appears to be caused by CPU reordering of writes issued from
__tracing_map_insert().
The check for the presence of an element with a given key in this
function is:
val = READ_ONCE(entry->val);
if (val && keys_match(key, val->key, map->key_size)) ...
The write of a new entry is:
elt = get_free_elt(map);
memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);
entry->val = elt;
The "memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);" and "entry->val = elt;"
stores may become visible in the reversed order on another CPU. This
second CPU might then incorrectly determine that a new key doesn't match
an already present val->key and subsequently insert a new element,
resulting in a duplicate.
Fix the problem by adding a write barrier between
"memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);" and "entry->val = elt;", and for
good measure, also use WRITE_ONCE(entry->val, elt) for publishing the
element. The sequence pairs with the mentioned "READ_ONCE(entry->val);"
and the "val->key" check which has an address dependency.
The barrier is placed on a path executed when adding an element for
a new key. Subsequent updates targeting the same key remain unaffected.
From the user's perspective, the issue was introduced by commit
c193707dde ("tracing: Remove code which merges duplicates"), which
followed commit cbf4100efb ("tracing: Add support to detect and avoid
duplicates"). The previous code operated differently; it inherently
expected potential races which result in duplicates but merged them
later when they occurred.

commit b803d7c664 upstream.
To synchronize the timestamps with the ring buffer reservation, there are
two timestamps that are saved in the buffer meta data.
1. before_stamp
2. write_stamp
When the two are equal, the write_stamp is considered valid, as in, it may
be used to calculate the delta of the next event as the write_stamp is the
timestamp of the previous reserved event on the buffer.
This is done by the following:
/*A*/ w = current position on the ring buffer
before = before_stamp
after = write_stamp
ts = read current timestamp
if (before != after) {
write_stamp is not valid, force adding an absolute
timestamp.
}
/*B*/ before_stamp = ts
/*C*/ write = local_add_return(event length, position on ring buffer)
if (w == write - event length) {
/* Nothing interrupted between A and C */
/*E*/ write_stamp = ts;
delta = ts - after
/*
* If nothing interrupted again,
* before_stamp == write_stamp and write_stamp
* can be used to calculate the delta for
* events that come in after this one.
*/
} else {
/*
* The slow path!
* Was interrupted between A and C.
*/
This is the place that there's a bug. We currently have:
after = write_stamp
ts = read current timestamp
/*F*/ if (write == current position on the ring buffer &&
after < ts && cmpxchg(write_stamp, after, ts)) {
delta = ts - after;
} else {
delta = 0;
}
The assumption is that if the current position on the ring buffer hasn't
moved between C and F, then it also was not interrupted, and that the last
event written has a timestamp that matches the write_stamp. That is the
write_stamp is valid.
But this may not be the case:
If a task context event was interrupted by softirq between B and C.
And the softirq wrote an event that got interrupted by a hard irq between
C and E.
and the hard irq wrote an event (does not need to be interrupted)
We have:
/*B*/ before_stamp = ts of normal context
---> interrupted by softirq
/*B*/ before_stamp = ts of softirq context
---> interrupted by hardirq
/*B*/ before_stamp = ts of hard irq context
/*E*/ write_stamp = ts of hard irq context
/* matches and write_stamp valid */
<----
/*E*/ write_stamp = ts of softirq context
/* No longer matches before_stamp, write_stamp is not valid! */
<---
w != write - length, go to slow path
// Right now the order of events in the ring buffer is:
//
// |-- softirq event --|-- hard irq event --|-- normal context event --|
//
after = write_stamp (this is the ts of softirq)
ts = read current timestamp
if (write == current position on the ring buffer [true] &&
after < ts [true] && cmpxchg(write_stamp, after, ts) [true]) {
delta = ts - after [Wrong!]
The delta is to be between the hard irq event and the normal context
event, but the above logic made the delta between the softirq event and
the normal context event, where the hard irq event is between the two. This
will shift all the remaining event timestamps on the sub-buffer
incorrectly.
The write_stamp is only valid if it matches the before_stamp. The cmpxchg
does nothing to help this.
Instead, the following logic can be done to fix this:
before = before_stamp
ts = read current timestamp
before_stamp = ts
after = write_stamp
if (write == current position on the ring buffer &&
after == before && after < ts) {
delta = ts - after
} else {
delta = 0;
}
The above will only use the write_stamp if it still matches before_stamp
and was tested to not have changed since C.
As a bonus, with this logic we do not need any 64-bit cmpxchg() at all!
This means the 32-bit rb_time_t workaround can finally be removed. But
that's for a later time.

commit 083e9f65bd upstream.
When filtering is enabled, a temporary buffer is created to place the
content of the trace event output so that the filter logic can decide
from the trace event output if the trace event should be filtered out or
not. If it is to be filtered out, the content in the temporary buffer is
simply discarded, otherwise it is written into the trace buffer.
But if an interrupt were to come in while a previous event was using that
temporary buffer, the event written by the interrupt would actually go
into the ring buffer itself to prevent corrupting the data on the
temporary buffer. If the event is to be filtered out, the event in the
ring buffer is discarded, or if it fails to discard because another event
were to have already come in, it is turned into padding.
The update to the write_stamp in the rb_try_to_discard() happens after a
fix was made to force the next event after the discard to use an absolute
timestamp by setting the before_stamp to zero so it does not match the
write_stamp (which causes an event to use the absolute timestamp).
But there's an effort in rb_try_to_discard() to put back the write_stamp
to what it was before the event was added. But this is useless and
wasteful because nothing is going to be using that write_stamp for
calculations as it still will not match the before_stamp.
Remove this useless update, and in doing so, we remove another
cmpxchg64()!
Also update the comments to reflect this change as well as remove some
extra white space in another comment.

commit 39a7dc23a1 upstream.
If an application blocks on the snapshot or snapshot_raw files, expecting
to be woken up when a snapshot occurs, it will not happen. Or it may
happen with an unexpected result.
That result is that the application will be reading the main buffer
instead of the snapshot buffer. That is because when the snapshot occurs,
the main and snapshot buffers are swapped. But the reader has a descriptor
still pointing to the buffer that it originally connected to.
This is fine for the main buffer readers, as they may be blocked waiting
for a watermark to be hit, and when a snapshot occurs, the data that the
main readers want is now on the snapshot buffer.
But for waiters of the snapshot buffer, they are waiting for an event to
occur that will trigger the snapshot and they can then consume it quickly
to save the snapshot before the next snapshot occurs. But to do this, they
need to read the new snapshot buffer, not the old one that is now
receiving new data.
Also, it does not make sense to have a watermark "buffer_percent" on the
snapshot buffer, as the snapshot buffer is static and does not receive new
data except all at once.

commit 623b1f896f upstream.
The tracefs file "buffer_percent" is to allow user space to set a
water-mark on how much of the tracing ring buffer needs to be filled in
order to wake up a blocked reader.
0 - is to wait until any data is in the buffer
1 - is to wait for 1% of the sub buffers to be filled
50 - would be half of the sub buffers are filled with data
100 - is not to wake the waiter until the ring buffer is completely full
Unfortunately the test for being full was:
dirty = ring_buffer_nr_dirty_pages(buffer, cpu);
return (dirty * 100) > (full * nr_pages);
Where "full" is the value for "buffer_percent".
There is two issues with the above when full == 100.
1. dirty * 100 > 100 * nr_pages will never be true
That is, the above is basically saying that if the user sets
buffer_percent to 100, more pages need to be dirty than exist in the
ring buffer!
2. The page that the writer is on is never considered dirty, as dirty
pages are only those that are full. When the writer goes to a new
sub-buffer, it clears the contents of that sub-buffer.
That is, even if the check was ">=" it would still not be equal as the
most pages that can be considered "dirty" is nr_pages - 1.
To fix this, add one to dirty and use ">=" in the compare.

commit 88b30c7f5d upstream.
The synth_event_gen_test module can be built in, if someone wants to run
the tests at boot up and not have to load them.
The synth_event_gen_test_init() function creates and enables the synthetic
events and runs its tests.
The synth_event_gen_test_exit() disables the events it created and
destroys the events.
If the module is builtin, the events are never disabled. The issue is, the
events should be disable after the tests are run. This could be an issue
if the rest of the boot up tests are enabled, as they expect the events to

commit b022f0c7e4 upstream.
When a kprobe is attached to a function that's name is not unique (is
static and shares the name with other functions in the kernel), the
kprobe is attached to the first function it finds. This is a bug as the
function that it is attaching to is not necessarily the one that the
user wants to attach to.
Instead of blindly picking a function to attach to what is ambiguous,
error with EADDRNOTAVAIL to let the user know that this function is not
unique, and that the user must use another unique function with an
address offset to get to the function they want to attach to.

commit dd93942570 upstream.
If an update to an event is interrupted by another event between the time
the initial event allocated its buffer and where it wrote to the
write_stamp, the code try to reset the write stamp back to the what it had
just overwritten. It knows that it was overwritten via checking the
before_stamp, and if it didn't match what it wrote to the before_stamp
before it allocated its space, it knows it was overwritten.
To put back the write_stamp, it uses the before_stamp it read. The problem
here is that by writing the before_stamp to the write_stamp it makes the
two equal again, which means that the write_stamp can be considered valid
as the last timestamp written to the ring buffer. But this is not
necessarily true. The event that interrupted the event could have been
interrupted in a way that it was interrupted as well, and can end up
leaving with an invalid write_stamp. But if this happens and returns to
this context that uses the before_stamp to update the write_stamp again,
it can possibly incorrectly make it valid, causing later events to have in
correct time stamps.
As it is OK to leave this function with an invalid write_stamp (one that
doesn't match the before_stamp), there's no reason to try to make it valid
again in this case. If this race happens, then just leave with the invalid
write_stamp and the next event to come along will just add a absolute
timestamp and validate everything again.
Bonus points: This gets rid of another cmpxchg64!

commit fff88fa0fb upstream.
Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out an issue in the rb_time_cmpxchg() for 32 bit
architectures. That is:
static bool rb_time_cmpxchg(rb_time_t *t, u64 expect, u64 set)
{
unsigned long cnt, top, bottom, msb;
unsigned long cnt2, top2, bottom2, msb2;
u64 val;
/* The cmpxchg always fails if it interrupted an update */
if (!__rb_time_read(t, &val, &cnt2))
return false;
if (val != expect)
return false;
<<<< interrupted here!
cnt = local_read(&t->cnt);
The problem is that the synchronization counter in the rb_time_t is read
*after* the value of the timestamp is read. That means if an interrupt
were to come in between the value being read and the counter being read,
it can change the value and the counter and the interrupted process would
be clueless about it!
The counter needs to be read first and then the value. That way it is easy
to tell if the value is stale or not. If the counter hasn't been updated,
then the value is still good.

commit b3ae7b67b8 upstream.
The maximum ring buffer data size is the maximum size of data that can be
recorded on the ring buffer. Events must be smaller than the sub buffer
data size minus any meta data. This size is checked before trying to
allocate from the ring buffer because the allocation assumes that the size
will fit on the sub buffer.
The maximum size was calculated as the size of a sub buffer page (which is
currently PAGE_SIZE minus the sub buffer header) minus the size of the
meta data of an individual event. But it missed the possible adding of a
time stamp for events that are added long enough apart that the event meta
data can't hold the time delta.
When an event is added that is greater than the current BUF_MAX_DATA_SIZE
minus the size of a time stamp, but still less than or equal to
BUF_MAX_DATA_SIZE, the ring buffer would go into an infinite loop, looking
for a page that can hold the event. Luckily, there's a check for this loop
and after 1000 iterations and a warning is emitted and the ring buffer is
disabled. But this should never happen.
This can happen when a large event is added first, or after a long period
where an absolute timestamp is prefixed to the event, increasing its size
by 8 bytes. This passes the check and then goes into the algorithm that
causes the infinite loop.
For events that are the first event on the sub-buffer, it does not need to
add a timestamp, because the sub-buffer itself contains an absolute
timestamp, and adding one is redundant.
The fix is to check if the event is to be the first event on the
sub-buffer, and if it is, then do not add a timestamp.
This also fixes 32 bit adding a timestamp when a read of before_stamp or
write_stamp is interrupted. There's still no need to add that timestamp if
the event is going to be the first event on the sub buffer.
Also, if the buffer has "time_stamp_abs" set, then also check if the
length plus the timestamp is greater than the BUF_MAX_DATA_SIZE.

commit b049525855 upstream.
For the ring buffer iterator (non-consuming read), the event needs to be
copied into the iterator buffer to make sure that a writer does not
overwrite it while the user is reading it. If a write happens during the
copy, the buffer is simply discarded.
But the temp buffer itself was not big enough. The allocation of the
buffer was only BUF_MAX_DATA_SIZE, which is the maximum data size that can
be passed into the ring buffer and saved. But the temp buffer needs to
hold the meta data as well. That would be BUF_PAGE_SIZE and not
BUF_MAX_DATA_SIZE.

commit 9e45e39dc2 upstream.
The ring buffer timestamps are synchronized by two timestamp placeholders.
One is the "before_stamp" and the other is the "write_stamp" (sometimes
referred to as the "after stamp" but only in the comments. These two
stamps are key to knowing how to handle nested events coming in with a
lockless system.
When moving across sub-buffers, the before stamp is updated but the write
stamp is not. There's an effort to put back the before stamp to something
that seems logical in case there's nested events. But as the current event
is about to cross sub-buffers, and so will any new nested event that happens,
updating the before stamp is useless, and could even introduce new race
conditions.
The first event on a sub-buffer simply uses the sub-buffer's timestamp
and keeps a "delta" of zero. The "before_stamp" and "write_stamp" are not
used in the algorithm in this case. There's no reason to try to fix the
before_stamp when this happens.
As a bonus, it removes a cmpxchg() when crossing sub-buffers!

commit d06aff1cb1 upstream.
The snapshot buffer is to mimic the main buffer so that when a snapshot is
needed, the snapshot and main buffer are swapped. When the snapshot buffer
is allocated, it is set to the minimal size that the ring buffer may be at
and still functional. When it is allocated it becomes the same size as the
main ring buffer, and when the main ring buffer changes in size, it should
do.
Currently, the resize only updates the snapshot buffer if it's used by the
current tracer (ie. the preemptirqsoff tracer). But it needs to be updated
anytime it is allocated.
When changing the size of the main buffer, instead of looking to see if
the current tracer is utilizing the snapshot buffer, just check if it is
allocated to know if it should be updated or not.
Also fix typo in comment just above the code change.

commit 17d8017581 upstream.
Reading the ring buffer does a swap of a sub-buffer within the ring buffer
with a empty sub-buffer. This allows the reader to have full access to the
content of the sub-buffer that was swapped out without having to worry
about contention with the writer.
The readers call ring_buffer_alloc_read_page() to allocate a page that
will be used to swap with the ring buffer. When the code is finished with
the reader page, it calls ring_buffer_free_read_page(). Instead of freeing
the page, it stores it as a spare. Then next call to
ring_buffer_alloc_read_page() will return this spare instead of calling
into the memory management system to allocate a new page.
Unfortunately, on freeing of the ring buffer, this spare page is not
freed, and causes a memory leak.

[ Upstream commit d78ab79270 ]
When the ring buffer is being resized, it can cause side effects to the
running tracer. For instance, there's a race with irqsoff tracer that
swaps individual per cpu buffers between the main buffer and the snapshot
buffer. The resize operation modifies the main buffer and then the
snapshot buffer. If a swap happens in between those two operations it will
break the tracer.
Simply stop the running tracer before resizing the buffers and enable it
again when finished.

[ Upstream commit b2dd797543 ]
There's a race where if an event is discarded from the ring buffer and an
interrupt were to happen at that time and insert an event, the time stamp
is still used from the discarded event as an offset. This can screw up the
timings.
If the event is going to be discarded, set the "before_stamp" to zero.
When a new event comes in, it compares the "before_stamp" with the
"write_stamp" and if they are not equal, it will insert an absolute
timestamp. This will prevent the timings from getting out of sync due to
the discarded event.

commit c0591b1ccc upstream.
Function trace_buffered_event_disable() is responsible for freeing pages
backing buffered events and this process can run concurrently with
trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve().
The following race is currently possible:
* Function trace_buffered_event_disable() is called on CPU 0. It
increments trace_buffered_event_cnt on each CPU and waits via
synchronize_rcu() for each user of trace_buffered_event to complete.
* After synchronize_rcu() is finished, function
trace_buffered_event_disable() has the exclusive access to
trace_buffered_event. All counters trace_buffered_event_cnt are at 1
and all pointers trace_buffered_event are still valid.
* At this point, on a different CPU 1, the execution reaches
trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve(). The function calls
preempt_disable_notrace() and only now enters an RCU read-side
critical section. The function proceeds and reads a still valid
pointer from trace_buffered_event[CPU1] into the local variable
"entry". However, it doesn't yet read trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1]
which happens later.
* Function trace_buffered_event_disable() continues. It frees
trace_buffered_event[CPU1] and decrements
trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1] back to 0.
* Function trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() continues. It reads and
increments trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU1] from 0 to 1. This makes it
believe that it can use the "entry" that it already obtained but the
pointer is now invalid and any access results in a use-after-free.
Fix the problem by making a second synchronize_rcu() call after all
trace_buffered_event values are set to NULL. This waits on all potential
users in trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() that still read a previous
pointer from trace_buffered_event.

The warning indicates that the current ring_buffer_per_cpu is not in the
committing state. It happens because the active ring_buffer_event
doesn't actually come from the ring_buffer_per_cpu but is allocated from
trace_buffered_event.
The bug is in function trace_buffered_event_disable() where the
following normally happens:
* The code invokes disable_trace_buffered_event() via
smp_call_function_many() and follows it by synchronize_rcu(). This
increments the per-CPU variable trace_buffered_event_cnt on each
target CPU and grants trace_buffered_event_disable() the exclusive
access to the per-CPU variable trace_buffered_event.
* Maintenance is performed on trace_buffered_event, all per-CPU event
buffers get freed.
* The code invokes enable_trace_buffered_event() via
smp_call_function_many(). This decrements trace_buffered_event_cnt and
releases the access to trace_buffered_event.
A problem is that smp_call_function_many() runs a given function on all
target CPUs except on the current one. The following can then occur:
* Task X executing trace_buffered_event_disable() runs on CPU 0.
* The control reaches synchronize_rcu() and the task gets rescheduled on
another CPU 1.
* The RCU synchronization finishes. At this point,
trace_buffered_event_disable() has the exclusive access to all
trace_buffered_event variables except trace_buffered_event[CPU0]
because trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU0] is never incremented and if the
buffer is currently unused, remains set to 0.
* A different task Y is scheduled on CPU 0 and hits a trace event. The
code in trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() sees that
trace_buffered_event_cnt[CPU0] is set to 0 and decides the use the
buffer provided by trace_buffered_event[CPU0].
* Task X continues its execution in trace_buffered_event_disable(). The
code incorrectly frees the event buffer pointed by
trace_buffered_event[CPU0] and resets the variable to NULL.
* Task Y writes event data to the now freed buffer and later detects the
created inconsistency.
The issue is observable since commit dea499781a ("tracing: Fix warning
in trace_buffered_event_disable()") which moved the call of
trace_buffered_event_disable() in __ftrace_event_enable_disable()
earlier, prior to invoking call->class->reg(.. TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER ..).
The underlying problem in trace_buffered_event_disable() is however
present since the original implementation in commit 0fc1b09ff1
("tracing: Use temp buffer when filtering events").
Fix the problem by replacing the two smp_call_function_many() calls with
on_each_cpu_mask() which invokes a given callback on all CPUs.

It use to be that only the top level instance had a snapshot buffer (for

instance would not disable the snapshot buffer. This could have some
unintended consequences if the irqsoff tracer is enabled.
Consolidate the tracing_start/stop() with tracing_start/stop_tr() so that

[ Upstream commit 34209fe83e ]
Function trace_buffered_event_disable() produces an unexpected warning
when the previous call to trace_buffered_event_enable() fails to
allocate pages for buffered events.
The situation can occur as follows:
* The counter trace_buffered_event_ref is at 0.
* The soft mode gets enabled for some event and
trace_buffered_event_enable() is called. The function increments
trace_buffered_event_ref to 1 and starts allocating event pages.
* The allocation fails for some page and trace_buffered_event_disable()
is called for cleanup.
* Function trace_buffered_event_disable() decrements
trace_buffered_event_ref back to 0, recognizes that it was the last
use of buffered events and frees all allocated pages.
* The control goes back to trace_buffered_event_enable() which returns.
The caller of trace_buffered_event_enable() has no information that
the function actually failed.
* Some time later, the soft mode is disabled for the same event.
Function trace_buffered_event_disable() is called. It warns on
"WARN_ON_ONCE(!trace_buffered_event_ref)" and returns.
Buffered events are just an optimization and can handle failures. Make
trace_buffered_event_enable() exit on the first failure and left any
cleanup later to when trace_buffered_event_disable() is called.

RIP: 0010:tracing_release_file_tr+0xc/0x50
What happens here is that the kprobe event creates a trace_event_file
"file" descriptor that represents the file in tracefs to the event. It
maintains state of the event (is it enabled for the given instance?).
Opening the "enable" file gets a reference to the event "file" descriptor
via the open file descriptor. When the kprobe event is deleted, the file is
also deleted from the tracefs system which also frees the event "file"
descriptor.
But as the tracefs file is still opened by user space, it will not be
totally removed until the final dput() is called on it. But this is not
true with the event "file" descriptor that is already freed. If the user
does a write to or simply closes the file descriptor it will reference the
event "file" descriptor that was just freed, causing a use-after-free bug.
To solve this, add a ref count to the event "file" descriptor as well as a
new flag called "FREED". The "file" will not be freed until the last
reference is released. But the FREE flag will be set when the event is
removed to prevent any more modifications to that event from happening,
even if there's still a reference to the event "file" descriptor.

commit 4f7969bcd6 upstream.
A synthetic event is created by the synthetic event interface that can
read both user or kernel address memory. In reality, it reads any
arbitrary memory location from within the kernel. If the address space is
in USER (where CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NON_OVERLAPPING_ADDRESS_SPACE is set) then
it uses strncpy_from_user_nofault() to copy strings otherwise it uses
strncpy_from_kernel_nofault().
But since both functions use the same variable there's no annotation to
what that variable is (ie. __user). This makes sparse complain.
Quiet sparse by typecasting the strncpy_from_user_nofault() variable to
a __user pointer.

[ Upstream commit 23cce5f254 ]
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.

The 'bytes' info in file 'per_cpu/cpu<X>/stats' means the number of

after consuming data by reading file 'trace_pipe', the 'bytes' info
was not changed as expected.
# cat per_cpu/cpu0/stats

oldest event ts: 8651.371479

The root cause is incorrect stat on cpu_buffer->read_bytes. To fix it:
1. When stat 'read_bytes', account consumed event in rb_advance_reader();
2. When stat 'entries_bytes', exclude the discarded padding event which
is smaller than minimum size because it is invisible to reader. Then
use rb_page_commit() instead of BUF_PAGE_SIZE at where accounting for
page-based read/remove/overrun.
Also correct the comments of ring_buffer_bytes_cpu() in this patch.

commit 1e0cb399c7 upstream.
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 42fb0a1e84 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.

[ Upstream commit 95a404bd60 ]
When iterating over the ring buffer while the ring buffer is active, the
writer can corrupt the reader. There's barriers to help detect this and
handle it, but that code missed the case where the last event was at the
very end of the page and has only 4 bytes left.
The checks to detect the corruption by the writer to reads needs to see the
length of the event. If the length in the first 4 bytes is zero then the
length is stored in the second 4 bytes. But if the writer is in the process
of updating that code, there's a small window where the length in the first
4 bytes could be zero even though the length is only 4 bytes. That will
cause rb_event_length() to read the next 4 bytes which could happen to be off the
allocated page.
To protect against this, fail immediately if the next event pointer is
less than 8 bytes from the end of the commit (last byte of data), as all
events must be a minimum of 8 bytes anyway.

[ Upstream commit f6bd2c9248 ]
When user resize all trace ring buffer through file 'buffer_size_kb',
then in ring_buffer_resize(), kernel allocates buffer pages for each
cpu in a loop.
If the kernel preemption model is PREEMPT_NONE and there are many cpus
and there are many buffer pages to be allocated, it may not give up cpu
for a long time and finally cause a softlockup.
To avoid it, call cond_resched() after each cpu buffer allocation.

[ Upstream commit 2972e3050e ]
The tracing marker files are write-only streams with no meaningful
concept of file position. Using stream_open() to mark them as
stream-link indicates this and has the added advantage that a single
file descriptor can now be used from multiple threads without contention
thanks to clearing FMODE_ATOMIC_POS.
Note that this has the potential to break existing userspace by since
both lseek(2) and pwrite(2) will now return ESPIPE when previously lseek
would have updated the stored offset and pwrite would have appended to
the trace. A survey of libtracefs and several other projects found to
use trace_marker(_raw) [1][2][3] suggests that everyone limits
themselves to calling write(2) and close(2) on these file descriptors so
there is a good chance this will go unnoticed and the benefits of
reduced overhead and lock contention seem worth the risk.

spurious -EBUSY returns if underlying memory is not fully zeroed.
This has been observed by immediate failure to read the main
trace_pipe file on an otherwise newly booted and idle system:

cat: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe: Device or resource busy

It is because the race between writing event into cpu buffer and swapping
cpu buffer through file per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot:
Write on CPU 0 Swap buffer by per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot on CPU 1

[...]

[...]
cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu]; // 5. Now find 'cpu_buffer_b' !!!
rb_commit(cpu_buffer)
rb_end_commit() // 6. WARN for the wrong 'committing' state !!!
Based on above analysis, we can easily reproduce by following testcase:
``` bash
#!/bin/bash
dmesg -n 7
sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_warn=1
TR=/sys/kernel/tracing
echo 7 > ${TR}/buffer_size_kb
echo "sched:sched_switch" > ${TR}/set_event
while [ true ]; do
echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
done &
while [ true ]; do
echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
done &
while [ true ]; do
echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
done &
```
To fix it, IIUC, we can use smp_call_function_single() to do the swap on
the target cpu where the buffer is located, so that above race would be
avoided.

[ Upstream commit c2489bb7e6 ]
There is race issue when concurrently splice_read main trace_pipe and
per_cpu trace_pipes which will result in data read out being different
from what actually writen.
As suggested by Steven:
> I believe we should add a ref count to trace_pipe and the per_cpu
> trace_pipes, where if they are opened, nothing else can read it.
>
> Opening trace_pipe locks all per_cpu ref counts, if any of them are
> open, then the trace_pipe open will fail (and releases any ref counts
> it had taken).
>
> Opening a per_cpu trace_pipe will up the ref count for just that
> CPU buffer. This will allow multiple tasks to read different per_cpu
> trace_pipe files, but will prevent the main trace_pipe file from
> being opened.
But because we only need to know whether per_cpu trace_pipe is open or
not, using a cpumask instead of using ref count may be easier.
After this patch, users will find that:
- Main trace_pipe can be opened by only one user, and if it is
opened, all per_cpu trace_pipes cannot be opened;
- Per_cpu trace_pipes can be opened by multiple users, but each per_cpu
trace_pipe can only be opened by one user. And if one of them is
opened, main trace_pipe cannot be opened.
