Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Extend tracing option mask to 64 bits
The trace options were defined by a 32 bit variable. This limits the
tracing instances to have a total of 32 different options. As that
limit has been hit, and more options are being added, increase the
option mask to a 64 bit number, doubling the number of options
available.
As this is required for the kprobe topic branches as well as the
tracing topic branch, a separate branch was created and merged into
both.
- Make trace_user_fault_read() available for the rest of tracing
The function trace_user_fault_read() is used by trace_marker file
read to allow reading user space to be done fast and without locking
or allocations. Make this available so that the system call trace
events can use it too.
- Have system call trace events read user space values
Now that the system call trace events callbacks are called in a
faultable context, take advantage of this and read the user space
buffers for various system calls. For example, show the path name of
the openat system call instead of just showing the pointer to that
path name in user space. Also show the contents of the buffer of the
write system call. Several system call trace events are updated to
make tracing into a light weight strace tool for all applications in
the system.
- Update perf system call tracing to do the same
- And a config and syscall_user_buf_size file to control the size of
the buffer
Limit the amount of data that can be read from user space. The
default size is 63 bytes but that can be expanded to 165 bytes.
- Allow the persistent ring buffer to print system calls normally
The persistent ring buffer prints trace events by their type and
ignores the print_fmt. This is because the print_fmt may change from
kernel to kernel. As the system call output is fixed by the system
call ABI itself, there's no reason to limit that. This makes reading
the system call events in the persistent ring buffer much nicer and
easier to understand.
- Add options to show text offset to function profiler
The function profiler that counts the number of times a function is
hit currently lists all functions by its name and offset. But this
becomes ambiguous when there are several functions with the same
name.
Add a tracing option that changes the output to be that of
'_text+offset' instead. Now a user space tool can use this
information to map the '_text+offset' to the unique function it is
counting.
- Report bad dynamic event command
If a bad command is passed to the dynamic_events file, report it
properly in the error log.
- Clean up tracer options
Clean up the tracer option code a bit, by removing some useless code
and also using switch statements instead of a series of if
statements.
- Have tracing options be instance specific
Tracers can have their own options (function tracer, irqsoff tracer,
function graph tracer, etc). But now that the same tracer can be
enabled in multiple trace instances, their options are still global.
The API is per instance, thus changing one affects other instances.
This isn't even consistent, as the option take affect differently
depending on when an tracer started in an instance. Make the options
for instances only affect the instance it is changed under.
- Optimize pid_list lock contention
Whenever the pid_list is read, it uses a spin lock. This happens at
every sched switch. Taking the lock at sched switch can be removed by
instead using a seqlock counter.
- Clean up the trace trigger structures
The trigger code uses two different structures to implement a single
tigger. This was due to trying to reuse code for the two different
types of triggers (always on trigger, and count limited trigger). But
by adding a single field to one structure, the other structure could
be absorbed into the first structure making he code easier to
understand.
- Create a bulk garbage collector for trace triggers
If user space has triggers for several hundreds of events and then
removes them, it can take several seconds to complete. This is
because each removal calls tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() that
can take hundreds of milliseconds to complete.
Instead, create a helper thread that will do the clean up. When a
trigger is removed, it will create the kthread if it isn't already
created, and then add the trigger to a llist. The kthread will take
the items off the llist, call tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(),
and then remove the items it took off. It will then check if there's
more items to free before sleeping.
This makes user space removing all these triggers to finish in less
than a second.
- Allow function tracing of some of the tracing infrastructure code
Because the tracing code can cause recursion issues if it is traced
by the function tracer the entire tracing directory disables function
tracing. But not all of tracing causes issues if it is traced.
Namely, the event tracing code. Add a config that enables some of the
tracing code to be traced to help in debugging it. Note, when this is
enabled, it does add noise to general function tracing, especially if
events are enabled as well (which is a common case).
- Add boot-time backup instance for persistent buffer
The persistent ring buffer is used mostly for kernel crash analysis
in the field. One issue is that if there's a crash, the data in the
persistent ring buffer must be read before tracing can begin using
it. This slows down the boot process. Once tracing starts in the
persistent ring buffer, the old data must be freed and the addresses
no longer match and old events can't be in the buffer with new
events.
Create a way to create a backup buffer that copies the persistent
ring buffer at boot up. Then after a crash, the always on tracer can
begin immediately as well as the normal boot process while the crash
analysis tooling uses the backup buffer. After the backup buffer is
finished being read, it can be removed.
- Enable function graph args and return address options at the same
time
Currently the when reading of arguments in the function graph tracer
is enabled, the option to record the parent function in the entry
event can not be enabled. Update the code so that it can.
- Add new struct_offset() helper macro
Add a new macro that takes a pointer to a structure and a name of one
of its members and it will return the offset of that member. This
allows the ring buffer code to simplify the following:
From: size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
To: size = struct_offset(entry, id) + cnt;
There should be other simplifications that this macro can help out
with as well

Now that there's pretty much a one to one mapping between the struct
event_trigger_ops and struct event_command, there's no reason to have two
different structures. Merge the function pointers of event_trigger_ops
into event_command.
There's one exception in trace_events_hist.c for the
event_hist_trigger_named_ops. This has special logic for the init and free
function pointers for "named histograms". In this case, allocate the
cmd_ops of the event_trigger_data and set it to the proper init and free
functions, which are used to initialize and free the event_trigger_data
respectively. Have the free function and the init function (on failure)
free the cmd_ops of the data element.

The struct event_command has a callback function called get_trigger_ops().
This callback returns the "trigger_ops" to use for the trigger. These ops
define the trigger function, how to init the trigger, how to print the
trigger and how to free it.
The only reason there's a callback function to get these ops is because
some triggers have two types of operations. One is an "always on"
operation, and the other is a "count down" operation. If a user passes in
a parameter to say how many times the trigger should execute. For example:
echo stacktrace:5 > events/kmem/kmem_cache_alloc/trigger
It will trigger the stacktrace for the first 5 times the kmem_cache_alloc
event is hit.
Instead of having two different trigger_ops since the only difference
between them is the tigger itself (the print, init and free functions are
all the same), just use a single ops that the event_command points to and
add a function field to the trigger_ops to have a count_func.
When a trigger is added to an event, if there's a count attached to it and
the trigger ops has the count_func field, the data allocated to represent
this trigger will have a new flag set called COUNT.
Then when the trigger executes, it will check if the COUNT data flag is
set, and if so, it will call the ops count_func(). If that returns false,
it returns without executing the trigger.
This removes the need for duplicate event_trigger_ops structures.

The function create_field_var() allocates memory for 'val' through
create_hist_field() inside parse_atom(), and for 'var' through
create_var(), which in turn allocates var->type and var->var.name
internally. Simply calling kfree() to release these structures will
result in memory leaks.
Use destroy_hist_field() to properly free 'val', and explicitly release
the memory of var->type and var->var.name before freeing 'var' itself.

The function event_trigger_alloc() creates an event_trigger_data
descriptor and states that it needs to be freed via event_trigger_free().
This is incorrect, it needs to be freed by trigger_data_free() as
event_trigger_free() adds ref counting.
Rename event_trigger_alloc() to trigger_data_alloc() and state that it
needs to be freed via trigger_data_free(). This naming convention
was introducing bugs.

If one wants to trace the name of the task that wakes up a process and
pass that to the synthetic events, there's nothing currently that lets the
synthetic events do that. Add a "common_comm" to the histogram logic that
allows histograms save the current->comm as a variable that can be passed
through and added to a synthetic event:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 's:wake_lat char[] waker; char[] wakee; u64 delta;' >> dynamic_events
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:comm=common_comm:ts=common_timestamp.usecs if !(common_flags & 0x18)' > events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wake_comm=$comm:delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(wake_lat,$wake_comm,next_comm,$delta)' > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
The above will create a synthetic trace event that will save both the name
of the waker and the wakee but only if the wakeup did not happen in a hard
or soft interrupt context.
The "common_comm" is used to save the task->comm at the time of the
initial event and is passed via the "comm" variable to the second event,
and that is saved as the "waker" field in the "wake_lat" synthetic event.

The histogram trigger has three somewhat large arrays on the kernel stack:
unsigned long entries[HIST_STACKTRACE_DEPTH];
u64 var_ref_vals[TRACING_MAP_VARS_MAX];
char compound_key[HIST_KEY_SIZE_MAX];
Checking the function event_hist_trigger() stack frame size, it currently
uses 816 bytes for its stack frame due to these variables!
Instead, allocate a per CPU structure that holds these arrays for each
context level (normal, softirq, irq and NMI). That is, each CPU will have
4 of these structures. This will be allocated when the first histogram
trigger is enabled and freed when the last is disabled. When the
histogram callback triggers, it will request this structure. The request
will disable preemption, get the per CPU structure at the index of the
per CPU variable, and increment that variable.
The callback will use the arrays in this structure to perform its work and
then release the structure. That in turn will simply decrement the per CPU
index and enable preemption.
Moving the variables from the kernel stack to the per CPU structure brings
the stack frame of event_hist_trigger() down to just 112 bytes.

The add_to_key() function tests if the key is a string or some data. If
it's a string it does some further calculations of the string size (still
truncating it to the max size it can be), and calls strncpy().
If the key isn't as string it calls memcpy(). The interesting point is
that both use the exact same parameters:
strncpy(compound_key + key_field->offset, (char *)key, size);
} else
memcpy(compound_key + key_field->offset, key, size);
As strncpy() is being used simply as a memcpy() for a string, and since
strncpy() is deprecated, just call memcpy() for both memory and string
keys.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Add option traceoff_after_boot
In order to debug kernel boot, it sometimes is helpful to enable
tracing via the kernel command line. Unfortunately, by the time the
login prompt appears, the trace is overwritten by the init process
and other user space start up applications.
Adding a "traceoff_after_boot" will disable tracing when the kernel
passes control to init which will allow developers to be able to see
the traces that occurred during boot.
- Clean up the mmflags macros that display the GFP flags in trace
events
The macros to print the GFP flags for trace events had a bit of
duplication. The code was restructured to remove duplication and in
the process it also adds some flags that were missed before.
- Removed some dead code and scripts/draw_functrace.py
draw_functrace.py hasn't worked in years and as nobody complained
about it, remove it.
- Constify struct event_trigger_ops
The event_trigger_ops is just a structure that has function pointers
that are assigned when the variables are created. These variables
should all be constants.
- Other minor clean ups and fixes

The function event_{hist,hist_debug}_open() maintains the refcount of
'file->tr' and 'file' through tracing_open_file_tr(). However, it does
not roll back these counts on subsequent failure paths, resulting in a
refcount leak.
A very obvious case is that if the hist/hist_debug file belongs to a
specific instance, the refcount leak will prevent the deletion of that
instance, as it relies on the condition 'tr->ref == 1' within
__remove_instance().
Fix this by calling tracing_release_file_tr() on all failure paths in
event_{hist,hist_debug}_open() to correct the refcount.

The next time a hist with name is registered, it causes an u-a-f bug and
the kernel can crash.
Move the code around such that if event_trigger_register() succeeds, the
next thing called is hist_trigger_enable() which adds it to the list.
A bunch of actions is called if get_named_trigger_data() returns false.
But that doesn't need to be called after event_trigger_register(), so it
can be moved up, allowing event_trigger_register() to be called just
before hist_trigger_enable() keeping them together and allowing the
file->triggers to be properly populated.

Since POLLIN will not be flushed until the hist file is read, the user
needs to repeatedly read() and poll() on the hist file for monitoring the
event continuously. But the read() is somewhat redundant when the user is
only monitoring for event updates.
Add POLLPRI poll event on the hist file so the event returns when a
histogram is updated after open(), poll() or read(). Thus it is possible
to wait for the next event without having to issue a read().

Add poll syscall support on the `hist` file. The Waiter will be waken
up when the histogram is updated with POLLIN.
Currently, there is no way to wait for a specific event in userspace.
So user needs to peek the `trace` periodicaly, or wait on `trace_pipe`.
But it is not a good idea to peek at the `trace` for an event that
randomly happens. And `trace_pipe` is not coming back until a page is
filled with events.
This allows a user to wait for a specific event on the `hist` file. User
can set a histogram trigger on the event which they want to monitor
and poll() on its `hist` file. Since this poll() returns POLLIN, the next
poll() will return soon unless a read() happens on that hist file.
NOTE: To read the hist file again, you must set the file offset to 0,
but just for monitoring the event, you may not need to read the
histogram.

There are a couple functions in trace_events_hist.c that have "goto out" or
equivalent on error in order to release locks that were taken. This can be
error prone or just simply make the code more complex.
Switch every location that ends with unlocking a mutex on error over to
using the guard(mutex)() infrastructure to let the compiler worry about
releasing locks. This makes the code easier to read and understand.

When eventfs was introduced, special care had to be done to coordinate the
freeing of the file meta data with the files that are exposed to user
space. The file meta data would have a ref count that is set when the file
is created and would be decremented and freed after the last user that
opened the file closed it. When the file meta data was to be freed, it
would set a flag (EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED) to denote that the file is freed,
and any new references made (like new opens or reads) would fail as it is
marked freed. This allowed other meta data to be freed after this flag was
set (under the event_mutex).
All the files that were dynamically created in the events directory had a
pointer to the file meta data and would call event_release() when the last
reference to the user space file was closed. This would be the time that it
is safe to free the file meta data.
A shortcut was made for the "format" file. It's i_private would point to
the "call" entry directly and not point to the file's meta data. This is
because all format files are the same for the same "call", so it was
thought there was no reason to differentiate them. The other files
maintain state (like the "enable", "trigger", etc). But this meant if the
file were to disappear, the "format" file would be unaware of it.
This caused a race that could be trigger via the user_events test (that
would create dynamic events and free them), and running a loop that would
read the user_events format files:
In one console run:
# cd tools/testing/selftests/user_events
# while true; do ./ftrace_test; done
And in another console run:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# while true; do cat events/user_events/__test_event/format; done 2>/dev/null
With KASAN memory checking, it would trigger a use-after-free bug report
(which was a real bug). This was because the format file was not checking
the file's meta data flag "EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED", so it would access the
event that the file meta data pointed to after the event was freed.
After inspection, there are other locations that were found to not check
the EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED flag when accessing the trace_event_file. Add a
new helper function: event_file_file() that will make sure that the
event_mutex is held, and will return NULL if the trace_event_file has the
EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED flag set. Have the first reference of the struct file
pointer use event_file_file() and check for NULL. Later uses can still use
the event_file_data() helper function if the event_mutex is still held and
was not released since the event_file_file() call.

The parse_actions() function uses 'len = str_has_prefix()' to test which
action is in the string being parsed. But then it goes and repeats the
logic for each different action. This logic can be simplified and
duplicate code can be removed as 'len' contains the length of the found
prefix which should be used for all actions.

KASAN report following issue. The root cause is when opening 'hist'
file of an instance and accessing 'trace_event_file' in hist_show(),
but 'trace_event_file' has been freed due to the instance being removed.
'hist_debug' file has the same problem. To fix it, call
tracing_{open,release}_file_tr() in file_operations callback to have
the ref count and avoid 'trace_event_file' being freed.

variables
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' >> synthetic_events
$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:vals=hitcount:comm=common_pid.execname' >> events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:onmatch(raw_syscalls.sys_enter).synthetic_sys_enter($comm, id)' >> events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
$ echo '!hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:vals=hitcount:comm=common_pid.execname' >> 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->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.

The histogram and synthetic events can use a pseudo event called
"stacktrace" that will create a stacktrace at the time of the event and
use it just like it was a normal field. We have other pseudo events such
as "common_cpu" and "common_timestamp". To stay consistent with that,
convert "stacktrace" to "common_stacktrace". As this was used in older
kernels, to keep backward compatibility, this will act just like
"common_cpu" did with "cpu". That is, "cpu" will be the same as
"common_cpu" unless the event has a "cpu" field. In which case, the
event's field is used. The same is true with "stacktrace".
Also update the documentation to reflect this change.

Modifiers are used to change the behavior of keys. For instance, they
can grouped into buckets, converted to syscall names (from the syscall
identifier), show task->comm of the current pid, be an array of longs
that represent a stacktrace, and more.
It was found that nothing stopped a value from taking a modifier. As
values are simple counters. If this happened, it would call code that
was not expecting a modifier and crash the kernel. This was fixed by
having the ___create_val_field() function test if a modifier was present
and fail if one was. This fixed the crash.
Now there's a problem with variables. Variables are used to pass fields
from one event to another. Variables are allowed to have some modifiers,
as the processing may need to happen at the time of the event (like
stacktraces and comm names of the current pid). The issue is that it too
uses __create_val_field(). Now that fails on modifiers, variables can no
longer use them (this is a regression).
As not all modifiers are for variables, have them use a separate check.

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.

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.

The current code will always use the current stacktrace as a key even
if a stacktrace contained in a specific event field was specified.
For example, we expect to use the 'unsigned long[] stack' field in the
below event in the histogram:
# echo 's:block_lat pid_t pid; u64 delta; unsigned long[] stack;' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/dynamic_events
# echo 'hist:keys=delta.buckets=100,stack.stacktrace:sort=delta' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/block_lat/trigger
But in fact, when we type out the trigger, we see that it's using the
plain old global 'stacktrace' as the key, which is just the stacktrace
when the event was hit and not the stacktrace contained in the event,
which is what we want:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/block_lat/trigger
hist:keys=delta.buckets=100,stacktrace:vals=hitcount:sort=delta.buckets=100:size=2048 [active]
And in fact, there's no code to actually retrieve it from the event,
so we need to add HIST_FIELD_FN_STACK and hist_field_stack() to get it
and hook it into the trigger code. For now, since the stack is just
using dynamic strings, this could just use the dynamic string
function, but it seems cleaner to have a dedicated function an be able
to tweak independently as necessary.

Currently, there are a few problems when printing hist triggers and
trace output when using stacktrace variables. This fixes the problems
seen below:
# echo 'hist:keys=delta.buckets=100,stack.stacktrace:sort=delta' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/block_lat/trigger
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/block_lat/trigger
hist:keys=delta.buckets=100,stacktrace:vals=hitcount:sort=delta.buckets=100:size=2048 [active]
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs,st=stacktrace if prev_state == 2' >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
hist:keys=next_pid:vals=hitcount:ts=common_timestamp.usecs,st=stacktrace.stacktrace:sort=hitcount:size=2048:clock=global if prev_state == 2 [active]
and also in the trace output (should be stack.stacktrace):

The max string length for a histogram variable is 256 bytes. The max depth
of a stacktrace is 16. With 8byte words, that's 16 * 8 = 128. Which can
easily fit in the string variable. The histogram stacktrace is being
stored in the string value (with the given max length), with the
assumption it will fit. To make sure that this is always the case (in the
case that the stack trace depth increases), add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to test
this.

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.

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;' > dynamic_events
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:ts=common_timestamp.usecs,st=stacktrace if prev_state == 1||prev_state == 2' > 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)' >> 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.

Allow to save stacktraces into a histogram variable. This will be used by
synthetic events to allow a stacktrace from one event to be passed and
displayed by another event.
The special keyword "stacktrace" is to be used to trigger a stack
trace for the event that the histogram trigger is attached to.
echo 'hist:keys=pid:st=stacktrace" > events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
Currently nothing can get access to the "$st" variable above that contains
the stack trace, but that will soon change.

Function 'create_hist_field' is called recursively at
trace_events_hist.c:1954 and can return NULL-value that's why we have
to check it to avoid null pointer dereference.

When input some constructed invalid 'trigger' command, command info
in 'error_log' are lost [1].
The root cause is that there is a path that event_hist_trigger_parse()
is recursely called once and 'last_cmd' which save origin command is
cleared, then later calling of hist_err() will no longer record origin
command info:
event_hist_trigger_parse() {
last_cmd_set() // <1> 'last_cmd' save origin command here at first
create_actions() {
onmatch_create() {
action_create() {
trace_action_create() {
trace_action_create_field_var() {
create_field_var_hist() {
event_hist_trigger_parse() { // <2> recursely called once
hist_err_clear() // <3> 'last_cmd' is cleared here
}
hist_err() // <4> No longer find origin command!!!
Since 'glob' is empty string while running into the recurse call, we
can trickly check it and bypass the call of hist_err_clear() to solve it.

When generate a synthetic event with many params and then create a trace
action for it [1], kernel panic happened [2].
It is because that in trace_action_create() 'data->n_params' is up to
SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX (current value is 64), and array 'data->var_ref_idx'
keeps indices into array 'hist_data->var_refs' for each synthetic event
param, but the length of 'data->var_ref_idx' is TRACING_MAP_VARS_MAX
(current value is 16), so out-of-bound write happened when 'data->n_params'
more than 16. In this case, 'data->match_data.event' is overwritten and
eventually cause the panic.
To solve the issue, adjust the length of 'data->var_ref_idx' to be
SYNTH_FIELDS_MAX and add sanity checks to avoid out-of-bound write.

The hitcount is treated specially in the histograms - since it's
always expected to be there regardless of whether the user specified
anything or not, it's always added as the first histogram value.
Currently the code doesn't allow it to be added more than once as a
value, which is inconsistent with all the other possible values. It
would seem to be a pointless thing to want to do, but other features
being added such as percent and graph modifiers don't work properly
with the current hitcount restrictions.
Fix this by allowing multiple hitcounts to be added.

commit 94eedf3dded5 ("tracing: Fix race where eprobes can be called before
the event") fixed an issue where if an event is soft disabled, and the
trigger is being added, there's a small window where the event sees that
there's a trigger but does not see that it requires reading the event yet,
and then calls the trigger with the record == NULL.
This could be solved with adding memory barriers in the hot path, or to
make sure that all the triggers requiring a record check for NULL. The
latter was chosen.
Commit 94eedf3dded5 set the eprobe trigger handle to check for NULL, but
the same needs to be done with histograms.

Due to retpolines, indirect calls are much more expensive than direct
calls. The histograms have a select set of functions it uses for the
histograms, instead of using function pointers to call them, create a
hist_fn_call() function that uses a switch statement to call the histogram
functions directly. This gives a 13% speedup to the histogram logic.
Using the histogram benchmark:

When I look into implements of create_hist_fields(), I think there can be
following two simplifications:
1. If something wrong happened in parse_var_defs(), free_var_defs() would
have been called in it, so no need goto free again after calling it;
2. After calling create_key_fields(), regardless of the value of 'ret', it
then always runs into 'out: ', so the judge of 'ret' is redundant.

This reverts commit 46bbe5c671e06f070428b9be142cc4ee5cedebac.
As commit 46bbe5c671e0 ("tracing: fix double free") said, the
"double free" problem reported by clang static analyzer is:
> In parse_var_defs() if there is a problem allocating
> var_defs.expr, the earlier var_defs.name is freed.
> This free is duplicated by free_var_defs() which frees
> the rest of the list.
However, if there is a problem allocating N-th var_defs.expr:
+ in parse_var_defs(), the freed 'earlier var_defs.name' is
actually the N-th var_defs.name;
+ then in free_var_defs(), the names from 0th to (N-1)-th are freed;
IF ALLOCATING PROBLEM HAPPENED HERE!!! -+
\
|
0th 1th (N-1)-th N-th V
+-------------+-------------+-----+-------------+-----------
var_defs: | name | expr | name | expr | ... | name | expr | name | ///
+-------------+-------------+-----+-------------+-----------
These two frees don't act on same name, so there was no "double free"
problem before. Conversely, after that commit, we get a "memory leak"
problem because the above "N-th var_defs.name" is not freed.
If enable CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK and inject a fault at where the N-th
var_defs.expr allocated, then execute on shell like:
$ echo 'hist:key=call_site:val=$v1,$v2:v1=bytes_req,v2=bytes_alloc' > \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
Then kmemleak reports:
