commit 46cc0b44428d0f0e81f11ea98217fc0edfbeab07 upstream.

Current snapshot implementation swaps two ring_buffers even though their
sizes are different from each other, that can cause an inconsistency
between the contents of buffer_size_kb file and the current buffer size.

For example:

  # cat buffer_size_kb
  7 (expanded: 1408)
  # echo 1 > events/enable
  # grep bytes per_cpu/cpu0/stats
  bytes: 1441020
  # echo 1 > snapshot             // current:1408, spare:1408
  # echo 123 > buffer_size_kb     // current:123,  spare:1408
  # echo 1 > snapshot             // current:1408, spare:123
  # grep bytes per_cpu/cpu0/stats
  bytes: 1443700
  # cat buffer_size_kb
  123                             // != current:1408

And also, a similar per-cpu case hits the following WARNING:

Reproducer:

  # echo 1 > per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot
  # echo 123 > buffer_size_kb
  # echo 1 > per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot

commit 0c97bf863efce63d6ab7971dad811601e6171d2f upstream.

Starting with GCC 9, -Warray-bounds detects cases when memset is called
starting on a member of a struct but the size to be cleared ends up
writing over further members.

Such a call happens in the trace code to clear, at once, all members
after and including `seq` on struct trace_iterator:

    In function 'memset',
        inlined from 'ftrace_dump' at kernel/trace/trace.c:8914:3:
    ./include/linux/string.h:344:9: warning: '__builtin_memset' offset
    [8505, 8560] from the object at 'iter' is out of the bounds of

    4368 [-Warray-bounds]
      344 |  return __builtin_memset(p, c, size);
          |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In order to avoid GCC complaining about it, we compute the address
ourselves by adding the offsetof distance instead of referring
directly to the member.

Since there are two places doing this clear (trace.c and trace_kdb.c),
take the chance to move the workaround into a single place in
the internal header.

It should be easy to actually support ->steal, but the only current users of pipe_buf_steal() are the virtio console and FUSE, and they also only use it as an optimization. So it's probably not worth the effort. - The ->get() and ->release() handlers can be invoked concurrently on pipe buffers backed by the same struct buffer_ref. Make them safe against concurrency by using refcount_t. - The pointers stored in ->private were only zeroed out when the last reference to the buffer_ref was dropped.

[ Upstream commit 31b265b3baaf55f209229888b7ffea523ddab366 ]

As reported back in 2016-11 [1], the "ftdump" kdb command triggers a
BUG for "sleeping function called from invalid context".

kdb's "ftdump" command wants to call ring_buffer_read_prepare() in
atomic context.  A very simple solution for this is to add allocation
flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare() so kdb can call it without
triggering the allocation error.  This patch does that.

Note that in the original email thread about this, it was suggested
that perhaps the solution for kdb was to either preallocate the buffer
ahead of time or create our own iterator.  I'm hoping that this
alternative of adding allocation flags to ring_buffer_read_prepare()
can be considered since it means I don't need to duplicate more of the
core trace code into "trace_kdb.c" (for either creating my own
iterator or re-preparing a ring allocator whose memory was already
allocated).

NOTE: another option for kdb is to actually figure out how to make it
reuse the existing ftrace_dump() function and totally eliminate the
duplication.  This sounds very appealing and actually works (the "sr
z" command can be seen to properly dump the ftrace buffer).  The
downside here is that ftrace_dump() fully consumes the trace buffer.
Unless that is changed I'd rather not use it because it means "ftdump
| grep xyz" won't be very useful to search the ftrace buffer since it
will throw away the whole trace on the first grep.  A future patch to
dump only the last few lines of the buffer will also be hard to
implement.

tracing: Do not free iter->trace in fail path of tracing_open_pipe() 2019-03-23T13:35:19+00:00 zhangyi (F) yi.zhang@huawei.com 2019-02-13T12:29:06+00:00 219397048238608f9fafe8d160063fa72ecdaeff commit e7f0c424d0806b05d6f47be9f202b037eb701707 upstream. Commit d716ff71dd12 ("tracing: Remove taking of trace_types_lock in pipe files") use the current tracer instead of the copy in tracing_open_pipe(), but it forget to remove the freeing sentence in the error path. There's an error path that can call kfree(iter->trace) after the iter->trace was assigned to tr->current_trace, which would be bad to free.

tracing: Fix number of entries in trace header 2019-02-27T09:08:01+00:00 Quentin Perret quentin.perret@arm.com 2019-02-14T15:29:50+00:00 ee6e4d34b4d9b5da00ac502e68e4d2ac04c5c1f3 commit 9e7382153f80ba45a0bbcd540fb77d4b15f6e966 upstream. The following commit 441dae8f2f29 ("tracing: Add support for display of tgid in trace output") removed the call to print_event_info() from print_func_help_header_irq() which results in the ftrace header not reporting the number of entries written in the buffer.

tracing: Do not call start/stop() functions when tracing_on does not change 2018-09-09T17:55:57+00:00 Steven Rostedt (VMware) rostedt@goodmis.org 2018-08-01T19:40:57+00:00 4c9016757e3bf695a6716946d7fd5f0f486a475a commit f143641bfef9a4a60c57af30de26c63057e7e695 upstream. Currently, when one echo's in 1 into tracing_on, the current tracer's "start()" function is executed, even if tracing_on was already one. This can lead to strange side effects. One being that if the hwlat tracer is enabled, and someone does "echo 1 > tracing_on" into tracing_on, the hwlat tracer's start() function is called again which will recreate another kernel thread, and make it unable to remove the old one.

commit 03fc7f9c99c1e7ae2925d459e8487f1a6f199f79 upstream.

The commit 719f6a7040f1bdaf96 ("printk: Use the main logbuf in NMI
when logbuf_lock is available") brought back the possible deadlocks
in printk() and NMI.

The check of logbuf_lock is done only in printk_nmi_enter() to prevent
mixed output. But another CPU might take the lock later, enter NMI, and:

      + Both NMIs might be serialized by yet another lock, for example,
	the one in nmi_cpu_backtrace().

      + The other CPU might get stopped in NMI, see smp_send_stop()
	in panic().

The only safe solution is to use trylock when storing the message
into the main log-buffer. It might cause reordering when some lines
go to the main lock buffer directly and others are delayed via
the per-CPU buffer. It means that it is not useful in general.

This patch replaces the problematic NMI deferred context with NMI
direct context. It can be used to mark a code that might produce
many messages in NMI and the risk of losing them is more critical
than problems with eventual reordering.

The context is then used when dumping trace buffers on oops. It was
the primary motivation for the original fix. Also the reordering is
even smaller issue there because some traces have their own time stamps.

Finally, nmi_cpu_backtrace() need not longer be serialized because
it will always us the per-CPU buffers again.
