Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "The major update to this release is that there's a new arch config
  option called CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS.

  Currently, only x86_64 enables it. All the ftrace callbacks now take a
  struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct pt_regs. If the architecture
  has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then the ftrace_regs will
  have enough information to read the arguments of the function being
  traced, as well as access to the stack pointer.

  This way, if a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the
  arguments, then it can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback,
  that puts in enough information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate
  a breakpoint exception (needed for kprobes).

  A new config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring
  buffer at most every event recorded.

  Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection
  to the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those
  callbacks).

  Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace
  to do it for it (saving on that extra function call).

  New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that
  lists all the places that triggered the recursion protection of the
  function tracer. This will show where things need to be fixed as
  recursion slows down the function tracer.

  The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a
  work queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.

  Various clean ups and last minute fixes"

block: remove the nr_sects field in struct hd_struct

2020-12-01T21:53:40+00:00

Now that the hd_struct always has a block device attached to it, there is
no need for having two size field that just get out of sync.

Additionally the field in hd_struct did not use proper serialization,
possibly allowing for torn writes.  By only using the block_device field
this problem also gets fixed.

pstore: Move kmsg_bytes default into Kconfig

2020-12-01T20:09:17+00:00

While kmsg_bytes can be set for pstore via mount, if a crash occurs
before the mount only partial console log will be stored as kmsg_bytes
defaults to a potentially different hardcoded value in the kernel
(PSTORE_DEFAULT_KMSG_BYTES). This makes it impossible to analyze valuable
post-mortem data especially on the embedded development or in the process
of bringing up new boards. Change this value to be a Kconfig option
with the default of old PSTORE_DEFAULT_KMSG_BYTES

ftrace: Have the callbacks receive a struct ftrace_regs instead of pt_regs

2020-11-13T17:14:55+00:00

In preparation to have arguments of a function passed to callbacks attached
to functions as default, change the default callback prototype to receive a
struct ftrace_regs as the forth parameter instead of a pt_regs.

For callbacks that set the FL_SAVE_REGS flag in their ftrace_ops flags, they
will now need to get the pt_regs via a ftrace_get_regs() helper call. If
this is called by a callback that their ftrace_ops did not have a
FL_SAVE_REGS flag set, it that helper function will return NULL.

This will allow the ftrace_regs to hold enough just to get the parameters
and stack pointer, but without the worry that callbacks may have a pt_regs
that is not completely filled.

ftrace: Add recording of functions that caused recursion

2020-11-06T13:42:26+00:00

This adds CONFIG_FTRACE_RECORD_RECURSION that will record to a file
"recursed_functions" all the functions that caused recursion while a
callback to the function tracer was running.

pstore/ftrace: Add recursion protection to the ftrace callback

2020-11-06T13:33:23+00:00

If a ftrace callback does not supply its own recursion protection and
does not set the RECURSION_SAFE flag in its ftrace_ops, then ftrace will
make a helper trampoline to do so before calling the callback instead of
just calling the callback directly.

The default for ftrace_ops is going to change. It will expect that handlers
provide their own recursion protection, unless its ftrace_ops states
otherwise.
