commit 2b0b8499ae75df91455bbeb7491d45affc384fb0 upstream.

The trampoline allocated by function tracer was overwriten by function_graph
tracer, and caused a memory leak. The save_global_trampoline should have
saved the previous trampoline in register_ftrace_graph() and restored it in
unregister_ftrace_graph(). But as it is implemented, save_global_trampoline was
only used in unregister_ftrace_graph as default value 0, and it overwrote the
previous trampoline's value. Causing the previous allocated trampoline to be
lost.

commit edb096e00724f02db5f6ec7900f3bbd465c6c76f upstream.

If function tracing is disabled by the user via the function-trace option or
the proc sysctl file, and a ftrace_ops that was allocated on the heap is
unregistered, then the shutdown code exits out without doing the proper
clean up. This was found via kmemleak and running the ftrace selftests, as
one of the tests unregisters with function tracing disabled.

<title>ftrace: Check for null ret_stack on profile function graph entry function</title>

<id>a8f0f9e49956a74718874b800251455680085600</id>
<content type='text'>
There's a small race when function graph shutsdown and the calling of the
registered function graph entry callback. The callback must not reference
the task's ret_stack without first checking that it is not NULL. Note, when
a ret_stack is allocated for a task, it stays allocated until the task exits.
The problem here, is that function_graph is shutdown, and a new task was
created, which doesn't have its ret_stack allocated. But since some of the
functions are still being traced, the callbacks can still be called.

The normal function_graph code handles this, but starting with commit
8861dd303c ("ftrace: Access ret_stack-&gt;subtime only in the function
profiler") the profiler code references the ret_stack on function entry, but
doesn't check if it is NULL first.

Need to get the changes from 0f17976568b3 ("ftrace: Fix regression with
module command in stack_trace_filter") as it is required to fix some other
changes with stack_trace_filter and the new development code.

When doing the following command:

 # echo ":mod:kvm_intel" &gt; /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter

it triggered a crash.

This happened with the clean up of probes. It required all callers to the
regex function (doing ftrace filtering) to have ops-&gt;private be a pointer to
a trace_array. But for the stack tracer, that is not the case.

Allow for the ops-&gt;private to be NULL, and change the function command
callbacks to handle the trace_array pointer being NULL as well.

Fixes: d2afd57a4b96 ("tracing/ftrace: Allow instances to have their own function probes")
