[ Upstream commit bc4f359b3b607daac0290d0038561237a86b38cb ]

Overwriting the error code with the deletion result may cause the
function to return 0 despite encountering an error. Commit b111545d26c0
("tracing: Remove the useless value assignment in
test_create_synth_event()") solves a similar issue by
returning the original error code, so this patch does the same.

<title>tracing/hwlat: Replace sched_setaffinity with set_cpus_allowed_ptr</title>

[ Upstream commit 71c7a30442b724717a30d5e7d1662ba4904eb3d4 ]

There is a problem with the behavior of hwlat in a container,
resulting in incorrect output. A warning message is generated:
"cpumask changed while in round-robin mode, switching to mode none",
and the tracing_cpumask is ignored. This issue arises because
the kernel thread, hwlatd, is not a part of the container, and
the function sched_setaffinity is unable to locate it using its PID.
Additionally, the task_struct of hwlatd is already known.
Ultimately, the function set_cpus_allowed_ptr achieves
the same outcome as sched_setaffinity, but employs task_struct
instead of PID.

Test case:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
  # echo 0 &gt; tracing_on
  # echo round-robin &gt; hwlat_detector/mode
  # echo hwlat &gt; current_tracer
  # unshare --fork --pid bash -c 'echo 1 &gt; tracing_on'
  # dmesg -c

Actual behavior:

<title>trace/hwlat: Do not start per-cpu thread if it is already running</title>

commit 08697bca9bbba15f2058fdbd9f970bd5f6a8a2e8 upstream.

The hwlatd tracer will end up starting multiple per-cpu threads with
the following script:

    #!/bin/sh
    cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
    echo 0 &gt; tracing_on
    echo hwlat &gt; current_tracer
    echo per-cpu &gt; hwlat_detector/mode
    echo 100000 &gt; hwlat_detector/width
    echo 200000 &gt; hwlat_detector/window
    echo 1 &gt; tracing_on

To fix the issue, check if the hwlatd thread for the cpu is already
running, before starting a new one. Along with the previous patch, this
avoids running multiple instances of the same CPU thread on the system.

commit 4c42f5f0d1dd20bddd9f940beb1e6ccad60c4498 upstream.

Do not wipe the contents of the per-cpu kthread data when starting the
tracer, as this will completely forget about already running instances
and can later start new additional per-cpu threads.

<title>ftrace: Fix invalid address access in lookup_rec() when index is 0</title>

commit ee92fa443358f4fc0017c1d0d325c27b37802504 upstream.

KASAN reported follow problem:

 BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in lookup_rec
 Read of size 8 at addr ffff000199270ff0 by task modprobe
 CPU: 2 Comm: modprobe
 Call trace:
  kasan_report
  __asan_load8
  lookup_rec
  ftrace_location
  arch_check_ftrace_location
  check_kprobe_address_safe
  register_kprobe

When checking pg-&gt;records[pg-&gt;index - 1].ip in lookup_rec(), it can get a
pg which is newly added to ftrace_pages_start in ftrace_process_locs().
Before the first pg-&gt;index++, index is 0 and accessing pg-&gt;records[-1].ip
will cause this problem.

Don't check the ip when pg-&gt;index is 0.

commit 9f116f76fa8c04c81aef33ad870dbf9a158e5b70 upstream.

The function hist_field_name() cannot handle being passed a NULL field
parameter. It should never be NULL, but due to a previous bug, NULL was
passed to the function and the kernel crashed due to a NULL dereference.
Mark Rutland reported this to me on IRC.

The bug was fixed, but to prevent future bugs from crashing the kernel,
check the field and add a WARN_ON() if it is NULL.

commit e0213434fe3e4a0d118923dc98d31e7ff1cd9e45 upstream.

Histogram values can not be strings, stacktraces, graphs, symbols,
syscalls, or grouped in buckets or log. Give an error if a value is set to
do so.

Note, the histogram code was not prepared to handle these modifiers for
histograms and caused a bug.

commit e0213434fe3e4a0d118923dc98d31e7ff1cd9e45 upstream.

Histogram values can not be strings, stacktraces, graphs, symbols,
syscalls, or grouped in buckets or log. Give an error if a value is set to
do so.

Note, the histogram code was not prepared to handle these modifiers for
histograms and caused a bug.

<title>tracing: Make splice_read available again</title>

commit e400be674a1a40e9dcb2e95f84d6c1fd2d88f31d upstream.

Since the commit 36e2c7421f02 ("fs: don't allow splice read/write
without explicit ops") is applied to the kernel, splice() and
sendfile() calls on the trace file (/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
/trace) return EINVAL.

This patch restores these system calls by initializing splice_read
in file_operations of the trace file. This patch only enables such
functionalities for the read case.

<title>tracing: Add NULL checks for buffer in ring_buffer_free_read_page()</title>

[ Upstream commit 3e4272b9954094907f16861199728f14002fcaf6 ]

In a previous commit 7433632c9ff6, buffer, buffer-&gt;buffers and
buffer-&gt;buffers[cpu] in ring_buffer_wake_waiters() can be NULL,
and thus the related checks are added.

However, in the same call stack, these variables are also used in
ring_buffer_free_read_page():

tracing_buffers_release()
  ring_buffer_wake_waiters(iter-&gt;array_buffer-&gt;buffer)
    cpu_buffer = buffer-&gt;buffers[cpu] -&gt; Add checks by previous commit
  ring_buffer_free_read_page(iter-&gt;array_buffer-&gt;buffer)
    cpu_buffer = buffer-&gt;buffers[cpu] -&gt; No check

Thus, to avod possible null-pointer derefernces, the related checks
should be added.

These results are reported by a static tool designed by myself.
