commit 8bcebc77e85f3d7536f96845a0fe94b1dddb6af0 upstream.

While working on a tool to convert SQL syntex into the histogram language of
the kernel, I discovered the following bug:

 # echo 'first u64 start_time u64 end_time pid_t pid u64 delta' &gt;&gt; synthetic_events
 # echo 'hist:keys=pid:start=common_timestamp' &gt; events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
 # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:delta=common_timestamp-$start,start2=$start:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(first,$start2,common_timestamp,next_pid,$delta)' &gt; events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

Would not display any histograms in the sched_switch histogram side.

But if I were to swap the location of

  "delta=common_timestamp-$start" with "start2=$start"

Such that the last line had:

 # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:start2=$start,delta=common_timestamp-$start:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(first,$start2,common_timestamp,next_pid,$delta)' &gt; events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

The histogram works as expected.

What I found out is that the expressions clear out the value once it is
resolved. As the variables are resolved in the order listed, when
processing:

  delta=common_timestamp-$start

The $start is cleared. When it gets to "start2=$start", it errors out with
"unresolved symbol" (which is silent as this happens at the location of the
trace), and the histogram is dropped.

When processing the histogram for variable references, instead of adding a
new reference for a variable used twice, use the same reference. That way,
not only is it more efficient, but the order will no longer matter in
processing of the variables.

From Tom Zanussi:

 "Just to clarify some more about what the problem was is that without
  your patch, we would have two separate references to the same variable,
  and during resolve_var_refs(), they'd both want to be resolved
  separately, so in this case, since the first reference to start wasn't
  part of an expression, it wouldn't get the read-once flag set, so would
  be read normally, and then the second reference would do the read-once
  read and also be read but using read-once.  So everything worked and
  you didn't see a problem:

   from: start2=$start,delta=common_timestamp-$start

  In the second case, when you switched them around, the first reference
  would be resolved by doing the read-once, and following that the second
  reference would try to resolve and see that the variable had already
  been read, so failed as unset, which caused it to short-circuit out and
  not do the trigger action to generate the synthetic event:

   to: delta=common_timestamp-$start,start2=$start

  With your patch, we only have the single resolution which happens
  correctly the one time it's resolved, so this can't happen."

commit de40f033d4e84e843d6a12266e3869015ea9097c upstream.

Have create_var_ref() manage the hist trigger's var_ref list, rather
than having similar code doing it in multiple places.  This cleans up
the code and makes sure var_refs are always accounted properly.

Also, document the var_ref-related functions to make what their
purpose clearer.

<title>tracing: Use hist trigger's var_ref array to destroy var_refs</title>

commit 656fe2ba85e81d00e4447bf77b8da2be3c47acb2 upstream.

Since every var ref for a trigger has an entry in the var_ref[] array,
use that to destroy the var_refs, instead of piecemeal via the field
expressions.

This allows us to avoid having to keep and treat differently separate
lists for the action-related references, which future patches will
remove.

commit aeed8aa3874dc15b9d82a6fe796fd7cfbb684448 upstream.

With CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST, I had many suspicious RCU warnings
when I ran ftracetest trigger testcases.

-----
  # dmesg -c &gt; /dev/null
  # ./ftracetest test.d/trigger
  ...
  # dmesg | grep "RCU-list traversed" | cut -f 2 -d ] | cut -f 2 -d " "

-----

I investigated those warnings and found that the RCU-list
traversals in event trigger and hist didn't need to use
RCU version because those were called only under event_mutex.

I also checked other RCU-list traversals related to event
trigger list, and found that most of them were called from
event_hist_trigger_func() or hist_unregister_trigger() or
register/unregister functions except for a few cases.

Replace these unneeded RCU-list traversals with normal list
traversal macro and lockdep_assert_held() to check the
event_mutex is held.

On some archs with some configurations, MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE is not defined, and
this makes the stack tracer fail to compile. Just define it to zero in this
case.

commit e31f7939c1c27faa5d0e3f14519eaf7c89e8a69d upstream.

The ftrace_profile-&gt;counter is unsigned long and
do_div truncates it to 32 bits, which means it can test
non-zero and be truncated to zero for division.
Fix this issue by using div64_ul() instead.

commit e31f7939c1c27faa5d0e3f14519eaf7c89e8a69d upstream.

The ftrace_profile-&gt;counter is unsigned long and
do_div truncates it to 32 bits, which means it can test
non-zero and be truncated to zero for division.
Fix this issue by using div64_ul() instead.

commit fe6e096a5bbf73a142f09c72e7aa2835026eb1a3 upstream.

At least on PA-RISC and s390 synthetic histogram triggers are failing
selftests because trace_event_raw_event_synth() always writes a 64 bit
values, but the reader expects a field-&gt;size sized value. On little endian
machines this doesn't hurt, but on big endian this makes the reader always
read zero values.

<title>tracing: Have the histogram compare functions convert to u64 first</title>

commit 106f41f5a302cb1f36c7543fae6a05de12e96fa4 upstream.

The compare functions of the histogram code would be specific for the size
of the value being compared (byte, short, int, long long). It would
reference the value from the array via the type of the compare, but the
value was stored in a 64 bit number. This is fine for little endian
machines, but for big endian machines, it would end up comparing zeros or
all ones (depending on the sign) for anything but 64 bit numbers.

To fix this, first derference the value as a u64 then convert it to the type
being compared.

<title>tracing: Avoid memory leak in process_system_preds()</title>

commit 79e65c27f09683fbb50c33acab395d0ddf5302d2 upstream.

When failing in the allocation of filter_item, process_system_preds()
goes to fail_mem, where the allocated filter is freed.

However, this leads to memory leak of filter-&gt;filter_string and
filter-&gt;prog, which is allocated before and in process_preds().
This bug has been detected by kmemleak as well.

Fix this by changing kfree to __free_fiter.
