Pull probe fixes from Masami Hiramatsu:

 - fprobe: Add a comment why fprobe will be skipped if another kprobe is
   running in fprobe_kprobe_handler().

 - probe-events: Fix some issues related to fetch-arguments:

    - Fix double counting of the string length for user-string and
      symstr. This will require longer buffer in the array case.

    - Fix not to count error code (minus value) for the total used
      length in array argument. This makes the total used length
      shorter.

    - Fix to update dynamic used data size counter only if fetcharg uses
      the dynamic size data. This may mis-count the used dynamic data
      size and corrupt data.

    - Revert "tracing: Add "(fault)" name injection to kernel probes"
      because that did not work correctly with a bug, and we agreed the
      current '(fault)' output (instead of '"(fault)"' like a string)
      explains what happened more clearly.

    - Fix to record 0-length (means fault access) data_loc data in fetch
      function itself, instead of store_trace_args(). If we record an
      array of string, this will fix to save fault access data on each
      entry of the array correctly.

Fix to record 0-length data to data_loc in fetch_store_string*() if it fails
to get the string data.
Currently those expect that the data_loc is updated by store_trace_args() if
it returns the error code. However, that does not work correctly if the
argument is an array of strings. In that case, store_trace_args() only clears
the first entry of the array (which may have no error) and leaves other
entries. So it should be cleared by fetch_store_string*() itself.
Also, 'dyndata' and 'maxlen' in store_trace_args() should be updated
only if it is used (ret &gt; 0 and argument is a dynamic data.)

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix some missing-prototype warnings

 - Fix user events struct args (did not include size of struct)

   When creating a user event, the "struct" keyword is to denote that
   the size of the field will be passed in. But the parsing failed to
   handle this case.

 - Add selftest to struct sizes for user events

 - Fix sample code for direct trampolines.

   The sample code for direct trampolines attached to handle_mm_fault().
   But the prototype changed and the direct trampoline sample code was
   not updated. Direct trampolines needs to have the arguments correct
   otherwise it can fail or crash the system.

 - Remove unused ftrace_regs_caller_ret() prototype.

 - Quiet false positive of FORTIFY_SOURCE

   Due to backward compatibility, the structure used to save stack
   traces in the kernel had a fixed size of 8. This structure is
   exported to user space via the tracing format file. A change was made
   to allow more than 8 functions to be recorded, and user space now
   uses the size field to know how many functions are actually in the
   stack.

   But the structure still has size of 8 (even though it points into the
   ring buffer that has the required amount allocated to hold a full
   stack.

   This was fine until the fortifier noticed that the
   memcpy(&amp;entry-&gt;caller, stack, size) was greater than the 8 functions
   and would complain at runtime about it.

   Hide this by using a pointer to the stack location on the ring buffer
   instead of using the address of the entry structure caller field.

 - Fix a deadloop in reading trace_pipe that was caused by a mismatch
   between ring_buffer_empty() returning false which then asked to read
   the data, but the read code uses rb_num_of_entries() that returned
   zero, and causing a infinite "retry".

 - Fix a warning caused by not using all pages allocated to store ftrace
   functions, where this can happen if the linker inserts a bunch of
   "NULL" entries, causing the accounting of how many pages needed to be
   off.

 - Fix histogram synthetic event crashing when the start event is
   removed and the end event is still using a variable from it

 - Fix memory leak in freeing iter-&gt;temp in tracing_release_pipe()

This reverts commit 2e9906f84fc7c99388bb7123ade167250d50f1c0.

It was turned out that commit 2e9906f84fc7 ("tracing: Add "(fault)"
name injection to kernel probes") did not work correctly and probe
events still show just '(fault)' (instead of '"(fault)"'). Also,
current '(fault)' is more explicit that it faulted.

This also moves FAULT_STRING macro to trace.h so that synthetic
event can keep using it, and uses it in trace_probe.c too.

If an array is specified with the ustring or symstr, the length of the
strings are accumlated on both of 'ret' and 'total', which means the
length is double counted.
Just set the length to the 'ret' value for avoiding double counting.

<title>tracing/histograms: Add histograms to hist_vars if they have referenced variables</title>

Hist triggers can have referenced variables without having direct
variables fields. This can be the case if referenced variables are added
for trigger actions. In this case the newly added references will not
have field variables. Not taking such referenced variables into
consideration can result in a bug where it would be possible to remove
hist trigger with variables being refenced. This will result in a bug
that is easily reproducable like so

$ cd /sys/kernel/tracing
$ echo 'synthetic_sys_enter char[] comm; long id' &gt;&gt; synthetic_events
$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:vals=hitcount:comm=common_pid.execname' &gt;&gt; events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:onmatch(raw_syscalls.sys_enter).synthetic_sys_enter($comm, id)' &gt;&gt; events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
$ echo '!hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:vals=hitcount:comm=common_pid.execname' &gt;&gt; events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger

We hit the bug because when second hist trigger has was created
has_hist_vars() returned false because hist trigger did not have
variables. As a result of that save_hist_vars() was not called to add
the trigger to trace_array-&gt;hist_vars. Later on when we attempted to
remove the first histogram find_any_var_ref() failed to detect it is
being used because it did not find the second trigger in hist_vars list.

With this change we wait until trigger actions are created so we can take
into consideration if hist trigger has variable references. Also, now we
check the return value of save_hist_vars() and fail trigger creation if
save_hist_vars() fails.

We hit the bug because when second hist trigger has was created
has_hist_vars() returned false because hist trigger did not have
variables. As a result of that save_hist_vars() was not called to add
the trigger to trace_array-&gt;hist_vars. Later on when we attempted to
remove the first histogram find_any_var_ref() failed to detect it is
being used because it did not find the second trigger in hist_vars list.

With this change we wait until trigger actions are created so we can take
into consideration if hist trigger has variable references. Also, now we
check the return value of save_hist_vars() and fail trigger creation if
save_hist_vars() fails.
