[ Upstream commit 6fe7c745f2acb73e4cc961d7f91125eef5a8861f ]

Fixes a build error when CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS=n with boot-time
tracing. Since the trigger_process_regex() is defined only
when CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS=y, if it is disabled, the 'actions'
event option also must be disabled.

<title>tracing/probes: Reject events which have the same name of existing one</title>

[ Upstream commit 8e242060c6a4947e8ae7d29794af6a581db08841 ]

Since kprobe_events and uprobe_events only check whether the
other same-type probe event has the same name or not, if the
user gives the same name of the existing tracepoint event (or
the other type of probe events), it silently fails to create
the tracefs entry (but registered.) as below.

/sys/kernel/tracing # ls events/task/task_rename
enable   filter   format   hist     id       trigger
/sys/kernel/tracing # echo p:task/task_rename vfs_read &gt;&gt; kprobe_events
[  113.048508] Could not create tracefs 'task_rename' directory
/sys/kernel/tracing # cat kprobe_events
p:task/task_rename vfs_read

To fix this issue, check whether the existing events have the
same name or not in trace_probe_register_event_call(). If exists,
it rejects to register the new event.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "Limit the shooting in the foot of tp_printk

  The "tp_printk" option redirects the trace event output to printk at
  boot up. This is useful when a machine crashes before boot where the
  trace events can not be retrieved by the in kernel ring buffer. But it
  can be "dangerous" because trace events can be located in high
  frequency locations such as interrupts and the scheduler, where a
  printk can slow it down that it live locks the machine (because by the
  time the printk finishes, the next event is triggered). Thus tp_printk
  must be used with care.

  It was discovered that the filter logic to trace events does not apply
  to the tp_printk events. This can cause a surprise and live lock when
  the user expects it to be filtered to limit the amount of events
  printed to the console when in fact it still prints everything"

The event filters are not applied on all of the output, which results in
the flood of printk when using tp_printk. Unfolding
event_trigger_unlock_commit_regs() into trace_event_buffer_commit(), so
the filters can be applied on every output.

The problem was the "trace(read_max,count)" where the "count" should be
"$count" as "onmax()" only handles variables (although it really should be
able to figure out that "count" is a field of sys_enter_read). But there's
a path that does not find the variable and ends up passing a NULL for the
event, which ends up getting passed to "strcmp()".

Add a check for NULL to return and error on the command with:

 # cat error_log
  hist:syscalls:sys_enter_read: error: Couldn't create or find variable
  Command: hist:keys=common_pid:count=count:onmax($count).trace(read_max,count)

The problem was the "trace(read_max,count)" where the "count" should be
"$count" as "onmax()" only handles variables (although it really should be
able to figure out that "count" is a field of sys_enter_read). But there's
a path that does not find the variable and ends up passing a NULL for the
event, which ends up getting passed to "strcmp()".

Add a check for NULL to return and error on the command with:

 # cat error_log
  hist:syscalls:sys_enter_read: error: Couldn't create or find variable
  Command: hist:keys=common_pid:count=count:onmax($count).trace(read_max,count)
                                ^

<title>tracing: define needed config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS</title>

Commit 2860cd8a2353 ("livepatch: Use the default ftrace_ops instead of
REGS when ARGS is available") intends to enable config LIVEPATCH when
ftrace with ARGS is available. However, the chain of configs to enable
LIVEPATCH is incomplete, as HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is available,
but the definition of DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, combining DYNAMIC_FTRACE
and HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, needed to enable LIVEPATCH, is missing
in the commit.

Fortunately, ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py detects this and warns:

DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS
Referencing files: kernel/livepatch/Kconfig

So, define the config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS analogously to the already
existing similar configs, DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and
DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS, in ./kernel/trace/Kconfig to connect the
chain of configs.

When using osnoise/timerlat with stop tracing, sometimes it is
not clear in which CPU the stop condition was hit, mainly
when using some extra events.

Print a message informing in which CPU the trace stopped, like
in the example below:

<title>trace/timerlat: Add a header with PREEMPT_RT additional fields</title>

<id>e1c4ad4a7f58417a6c483432b69c640670b6fe3d</id>
<content type='text'>
Some extra flags are printed to the trace header when using the
PREEMPT_RT config. The extra flags are: need-resched-lazy,
preempt-lazy-depth, and migrate-disable.

Without printing these fields, the timerlat specific fields are
shifted by three positions, for example:

 # tracer: timerlat
 #
 #                                _-----=&gt; irqs-off
 #                               / _----=&gt; need-resched
 #                              | / _---=&gt; hardirq/softirq
 #                              || / _--=&gt; preempt-depth
 #                              || /
 #                              ||||             ACTIVATION

           &lt;idle&gt;-0       [000] d..h...  3279.798871: #1     context    irq timer_latency       830 ns

Add a new header for timerlat with the missing fields, to be used
when the PREEMPT_RT is enabled.
