There are 6 function definitions in trace_probe_tmpl.h, they are:

1, fetch_store_strlen
2, fetch_store_string
3, fetch_store_strlen_user
4, fetch_store_string_user
5, probe_mem_read
6, probe_mem_read_user

Every C file which includes trace_probe_tmpl.h has to implement them,
otherwise it gets warnings and errors. However, some of them are identical,
like kprobe and eprobe, as a result, there is a lot redundant code in those
2 files.

This patch would like to provide default behaviors for those functions
which kprobe and eprobe can share by just including trace_probe_kernel.h
with trace_probe_tmpl.h together.

It removes redundant code, increases readability, and more importantly,
makes it easier to introduce a new feature based on trace probe
(it's possible).

<title>tracing/histogram: Don't use strlen to find length of stacktrace variables</title>

Because stacktraces are saved in dynamic strings,
trace_event_raw_event_synth() uses strlen to determine the length of
the stack.  Stacktraces may contain 0-bytes, though, in the saved
addresses, so the length found and passed to reserve() will be too
small.

Fix this by using the first unsigned long in the stack variables to
store the actual number of elements in the stack and have
trace_event_raw_event_synth() use that to determine the length of the
stack.

The test to check if the field is a stack is to be done if it is not a
string. But the code had:

    } if (event-&gt;fields[i]-&gt;is_stack) {

and not

   } else if (event-&gt;fields[i]-&gt;is_stack) {

which would cause it to always be tested. Worse yet, this also included an
"else" statement that was only to be called if the field was not a string
and a stack, but this code allows it to be called if it was a string (and
not a stack).

Also fixed some whitespace issues.

Allow a stacktrace from one event to be displayed by the end event of a
synthetic event. This is very useful when looking for the longest latency
of a sleep or something blocked on I/O.

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
 # echo 's:block_lat pid_t pid; u64 delta; unsigned long[] stack;' &gt; dynamic_events
 # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs,st=stacktrace  if prev_state == 1||prev_state == 2' &gt; events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
 # echo 'hist:keys=prev_pid:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts,s=$st:onmax($delta).trace(block_lat,prev_pid,$delta,$s)' &gt;&gt; events/sched/sched_switch/trigger

The above creates a "block_lat" synthetic event that take the stacktrace of
when a task schedules out in either the interruptible or uninterruptible
states, and on a new per process max $delta (the time it was scheduled
out), will print the process id and the stacktrace.

When tracing a dynamic string field for a synthetic event, the offset
calculation for where to write the next event can use struct_size() to
find what the current size of the structure is.

This simplifies the code and makes it less error prone.

The maximum number of synthetic fields supported is defined as
SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX which value currently is 64, but it actually fails
when try to generate a synthetic event with 64 fields by executing like:

  # echo "my_synth_event int v1; int v2; int v3; int v4; int v5; int v6;\
   int v7; int v8; int v9; int v10; int v11; int v12; int v13; int v14;\

<title>tracing: Add tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() function</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently the tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() requires the
trace_types_lock held. But only one caller of this function actually has
that lock held before calling it, and the other just takes the lock so
that it can call it. More users of this function is needed where the lock
is not held.

Add a tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() function for the one use
case that calls it without being held, and also add a lockdep_assert to
make sure it is held when called.

Then have tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() take the lock internally, such
that callers do not need to worry about taking it.

In register_synth_event(), if set_synth_event_print_fmt() failed, then
both trace_remove_event_call() and unregister_trace_event() will be
called, which means the trace_event_call will call
__unregister_trace_event() twice. As the result, the second unregister
will causes the wild-memory-access.

    set_synth_event_print_fmt failed

            __unregister_trace_event (first call)
    unregister_trace_event
        __unregister_trace_event (second call)

Fix the bug by avoiding to call the second __unregister_trace_event() by
checking if the first one is called.

<title>tracing: Fix reading strings from synthetic events</title>
<updated>2022-10-12T17:51:16+00:00</updated>

<id>0934ae9977c27133449b6dd8c6213970e7eece38</id>
<content type='text'>
The follow commands caused a crash:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
  # echo 's:open char file[]' &gt; dynamic_events
  # echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:file=filename:onchange($file).trace(open,$file)' &gt; events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/trigger'
  # echo 1 &gt; events/synthetic/open/enable

BOOM!

The problem is that the synthetic event field "char file[]" will read
the value given to it as a string without any memory checks to make sure
the address is valid. The above example will pass in the user space
address and the sythetic event code will happily call strlen() on it
and then strscpy() where either one will cause an oops when accessing
user space addresses.

Use the helper functions from trace_kprobe and trace_eprobe that can
read strings safely (and actually succeed when the address is from user
space and the memory is mapped in).

Now the above can show:
