This ensures that a NOP is a NOP and not a random other instruction that
is also a NOP. It allows simplification of dynamic code patching that
wants to verify existing code before writing new instructions (ftrace,
jump_label, static_call, etc..).
Differentiating on NOPs is not a feature.
This pessimises 32bit (DONTCARE) and 32bit on 64bit CPUs (CARELESS).
32bit is not a performance target.
Everything x86_64 since AMD K10 (2007) and Intel IvyBridge (2012) is
fine with using NOPL (as opposed to prefix NOP). And per FEATURE_NOPL
being required for x86_64, all x86_64 CPUs can use NOPL. So stop
caring about NOPs, simplify things and get on with life.
[ The problem seems to be that some uarchs can only decode NOPL on a
single front-end port while others have severe decode penalties for
excessive prefixes. All modern uarchs can handle both, except Atom,
which has prefix penalties. ]
[ Also, much doubt you can actually measure any of this on normal
workloads. ]
After this, FEATURE_NOPL is unused except for required-features for
x86_64. FEATURE_K8 is only used for PTI.
[ bp: Kernel build measurements showed ~0.3s slowdown on Sandybridge
which is hardly a slowdown. Get rid of X86_FEATURE_K7, while at it. ]

If a direct hook is attached to a function that ftrace also has a function
attached to it, then it is required that the ftrace_ops_list_func() is used
to iterate over the registered ftrace callbacks. This will also include the
direct ftrace_ops helper, that tells ftrace_regs_caller where to return to
(the direct callback and not the function that called it).
As this direct helper is only to handle the case of ftrace callbacks
attached to the same function as the direct callback, the ftrace callback
allocated trampolines (used to only call them), should never be used to
return back to a direct callback.
Only copy the portion of the ftrace_regs_caller that will return back to
what called it, and not the portion that returns back to the direct caller.
The direct ftrace_ops must then pick the ftrace_regs_caller builtin function
as its own trampoline to ensure that it will never have one allocated for
it (which would not include the handling of direct callbacks).

I was able to trigger it on other machines, when I added to the kernel
command line of both "ftrace=function" and "trace_options=func_stack_trace".
The cause is the "ftrace=function" would register the function tracer
and create a trampoline, and it will set it as executable and
read-only. Then the "trace_options=func_stack_trace" would then update
the same trampoline to include the stack tracer version of the function
tracer. But since the trampoline already exists, it updates it with
text_poke_bp(). The problem is that text_poke_bp() called while
system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING, it will simply do a memcpy() and not
the page mapping, as it would think that the text is still read-write.
But in this case it is not, and we take a fault and crash.
Instead, lets keep the ftrace trampolines read-write during boot up,
and then when the kernel executable text is set to read-only, the
ftrace trampolines get set to read-only as well.

The ftrace_regs_caller() trampoline does something 'funny' when there
is a direct-caller present. In that case it stuffs the 'direct-caller'
address on the return stack and then exits the function. This then
results in 'returning' to the direct-caller with the exact registers
we came in with -- an indirect tail-call without using a register.
This however (rightfully) confuses objtool because the function shares
a few instruction in order to have a single exit path, but the stack
layout is different for them, depending through which path we came
there.
This is currently cludged by forcing the stack state to the non-direct
case, but this generates actively wrong (ORC) unwind information for
the direct case, leading to potential broken unwinds.
Fix this issue by fully separating the exit paths. This results in
having to poke a second RET into the trampoline copy, see
ftrace_regs_caller_ret.
This brings us to a second objtool problem, in order for it to
perceive the 'jmp ftrace_epilogue' as a function exit, it needs to be
recognised as a tail call. In order to make that happen,
ftrace_epilogue needs to be the start of an STT_FUNC, so re-arrange
code to make this so.
Finally, a third issue is that objtool requires functions to exit with
the same stack layout they started with, which is obviously violated
in the direct case, employ the new HINT_RET_OFFSET to tell objtool
this is an expected exception.
Together, this results in generating correct ORC unwind information
for the ftrace_regs_caller() function and it's trampoline copies.

This also avoids ftrace violating the (new) W^X rule and avoids

overhead (which is a lot when tracing every function), add a counter that

It would have been nicer if we could use a static branch, but the static

after cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem.
This can't be achieved easily with the current ftrace design.
For example, arm calls set_all_modules_text_rw() already in
ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare(), see arch/arm/kernel/ftrace.c.
This functions is called:
+ outside stop_machine() from ftrace_run_update_code()
+ without stop_machine() from ftrace_module_enable()
Fortunately, the problematic fix is needed only on x86_64. It is
the only architecture that calls set_all_modules_text_rw()
in ftrace path and supports livepatching at the same time.
Therefore it is enough to move text_mutex handling from the generic
kernel/trace/ftrace.c into arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c:
ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare()
ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process()
This patch basically reverts the ftrace part of the problematic
commit 9f255b632b ("module: Fix livepatch/ftrace module
text permissions race"). And provides x86_64 specific-fix.
Some refactoring of the ftrace code will be needed when livepatching
is implemented for arm or nds32. These architectures call
set_all_modules_text_rw() and use stop_machine() at the same time.

Nicolai Stange discovered[1] that if live kernel patching is enabled, and the
function tracer started tracing the same function that was patched, the
conversion of the fentry call site during the translation of going from
calling the live kernel patch trampoline to the iterator trampoline, would
have as slight window where it didn't call anything.
As live kernel patching depends on ftrace to always call its code (to
prevent the function being traced from being called, as it will redirect
it). This small window would allow the old buggy function to be called, and
this can cause undesirable results.
Nicolai submitted new patches[2] but these were controversial. As this is
similar to the static call emulation issues that came up a while ago[3].
But after some debate[4][5] adding a gap in the stack when entering the
breakpoint handler allows for pushing the return address onto the stack to
easily emulate a call.

The ftrace_jmp_replace() function now only has a single user and should be
simply moved by that user. But looking at the code, it shows that
ftrace_jmp_replace() is similar to ftrace_call_replace() except that instead
of using the opcode of 0xe8 it uses 0xe9. It makes more sense to consolidate
that function into one implementation that both ftrace_jmp_replace() and
ftrace_call_replace() use by passing in the op code separate.
The structure in ftrace_code_union is also modified to replace the "e8"

Since commit 79922b8009 ("ftrace: Optimize function graph to be
called directly"), dynamic trampolines should not be calling the
function graph tracer at the end. If they do, it could cause the function
graph tracer to trace functions that it filtered out.
Right now it does not cause a problem because there's a test to check if
the function graph tracer is attached to the same function as the
function tracer, which for now is true. But the function graph tracer is
undergoing changes that can make this no longer true which will cause
the function graph tracer to trace other functions.
For example:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# echo do_IRQ > set_ftrace_filter
# mkdir instances/foo
# echo ip_rcv > instances/foo/set_ftrace_filter
# echo function_graph > current_tracer
# echo function > instances/foo/current_tracer
Would cause the function graph tracer to trace both do_IRQ and ip_rcv,
if the current tests change.
As the current tests prevent this from being a problem, this code does
not need to be backported. But it does make the code cleaner.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

o Pretty much a full rewrite of the processing of function plugins.
i.e. echo do_IRQ:stacktrace > set_ftrace_filter
o The rewrite was needed to add plugins to be unique to tracing instances.
i.e. mkdir instance/foo; cd instances/foo; echo do_IRQ:stacktrace > set_ftrace_filter
The old way was written very hacky. This removes a lot of those hacks.
o New "function-fork" tracing option. When set, pids in the set_ftrace_pid
will have their children added when the processes with their pids
listed in the set_ftrace_pid file forks.
o Exposure of "maxactive" for kretprobe in kprobe_events
o Allow for builtin init functions to be traced by the function tracer
(via the kernel command line). Module init function tracing will come
in the next release.
o Added more selftests, and have selftests also test in an instance.

For pre-4.6.0 versions of GCC, which don't have '-mfentry', the
'-maccumulate-outgoing-args' option is required for function graph
tracing in order to avoid GCC bug 42109.
However, GCC ignores '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' when '-Os' is
also set.
Currently we force a build error to prevent that scenario, but that
breaks randconfigs. So change the error to a warning which also
disables CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE.

On x86-32, with CONFIG_FIRMWARE and multiple CPUs, if you enable function
graph tracing and then suspend to RAM, it will triple fault and reboot when
it resumes.
The first fault happens when booting a secondary CPU:
startup_32_smp()
load_ucode_ap()
prepare_ftrace_return()
ftrace_graph_is_dead()
(accesses 'kill_ftrace_graph')
The early head_32.S code calls into load_ucode_ap(), which has an an
ftrace hook, so it calls prepare_ftrace_return(), which calls
ftrace_graph_is_dead(), which tries to access the global
'kill_ftrace_graph' variable with a virtual address, causing a fault
because the CPU is still in real mode.
The fix is to add a check in prepare_ftrace_return() to make sure it's
running in protected mode before continuing. The check makes sure the
stack pointer is a virtual kernel address. It's a bit of a hack, but
it's not very intrusive and it works well enough.
For reference, here are a few other (more difficult) ways this could
have potentially been fixed:
- Move startup_32_smp()'s call to load_ucode_ap() down to *after* paging
is enabled. (No idea what that would break.)
- Track down load_ucode_ap()'s entire callee tree and mark all the
functions 'notrace'. (Probably not realistic.)
- Pause graph tracing in ftrace_suspend_notifier_call() or bringup_cpu()
or __cpu_up(), and ensure that the pause facility can be queried from
real mode.

The GCC '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' flag is enabled for most configs,
mostly because of issues which are no longer relevant. For most
configs, and with most recent versions of GCC, it's no longer needed.
Clarify which cases need it, and only enable it for those cases. Also
produce a compile-time error for the ftrace graph + mcount + '-Os' case,
which will otherwise cause runtime failures.
The main benefit of '-maccumulate-outgoing-args' is that it prevents an
ugly prologue for functions which have aligned stacks. But removing the
option also has some benefits: more readable argument saves, smaller
text size, and (presumably) slightly improved performance.
Here are the object size savings for 32-bit and 64-bit defconfig
kernels:
text data bss dec hex filename
10006710 3543328 1773568 15323606 e9d1d6 vmlinux.x86-32.before
9706358 3547424 1773568 15027350 e54c96 vmlinux.x86-32.after
text data bss dec hex filename
10652105 4537576 843776 16033457 f4a6b1 vmlinux.x86-64.before
10639629 4537576 843776 16020981 f475f5 vmlinux.x86-64.after
That comes out to a 3% text size improvement on x86-32 and a 0.1% text
size improvement on x86-64.

Moving enabling of function tracing to early boot, even before scheduling is
enabled, means that it is not safe to enable interrupts. When function
tracing was enabled at boot up, it use to happen after scheduling and the
other CPUs were brought up. That required running a sync across all CPUs
when modifying the function hook locations in the code. To do the
synchronization, interrupts had to be enabled. Now function tracing can be
started before the other CPUs are brought up, and enabling interrupts in
that case is dangerous. As only tho boot CPU is active, there is no reason
to run the synchronization. If the online CPU count is one, do not bother
doing the synchronization. This removes the need to enable interrupts.

Use the more reliable version of ftrace_graph_ret_addr() so we no longer
have to worry about the unwinder getting out of sync with the function
graph ret_stack index, which can happen if the unwinder skips any frames
before calling ftrace_graph_ret_addr().
This fixes this issue (and several others like it):

Enabling function graph tracing causes the stack trace to change in two
ways:
First, the real call addresses are confusingly interspersed with
'return_to_handler' addresses. This issue will be fixed by the next
patch.
Second, the stack trace is offset by two frames, because the unwinder
skipped the first two frames and got out of sync with the ret_stack
index. This patch fixes this issue.

Storing this value will help prevent unwinders from getting out of sync
with the function graph tracer ret_stack. Now instead of needing a
stateful iterator, they can compare the return address pointer to find
the right ret_stack entry.
Note that an array of 50 ftrace_ret_stack structs is allocated for every
task. So when an arch implements this, it will add either 200 or 400
bytes of memory usage per task (depending on whether it's a 32-bit or
64-bit platform).

A new flag was added to distinguish traces done in NMI context.
Preempt tracer now shows functions where preemption is disabled but
interrupts are still enabled.
Other notes:
Updates were done to function tracing to allow better performance
with perf.
Infrastructure code has been added to allow for a new histogram
feature for recording live trace event histograms that can be
configured by simple user commands. The feature itself was just
finished, but needs a round in linux-next before being pulled.
This only includes some infrastructure changes that will be needed.

One of ftrace_caller_end and ftrace_return is redundant so unify them.
Rename ftrace_return to ftrace_epilogue to mean that everything after
that label represents, like an afterword, work which happens *after* the
ftrace call, e.g., the function graph tracer for one.
Steve wants this to rather mean "[a]n event which reflects meaningfully
on a recently ended conflict or struggle." I can imagine that ftrace can
be a struggle sometimes.
Anyway, beef up the comment about the code contents and layout before
ftrace_epilogue label.
