Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:
- fprobe: Pass return address to the fprobe entry/exit callbacks so
that the callbacks don't need to analyze pt_regs/stack to find the
function return address.
- kprobe events: cleanup usage of TPARG_FL_FENTRY and TPARG_FL_RETURN
flags so that those are not set at once.
- fprobe events:
- Add a new fprobe events for tracing arbitrary function entry and
exit as a trace event.
- Add a new tracepoint events for tracing raw tracepoint as a
trace event. This allows user to trace non user-exposed
tracepoints.
- Move eprobe's event parser code into probe event common file.
- Introduce BTF (BPF type format) support to kernel probe (kprobe,
fprobe and tracepoint probe) events so that user can specify
traced function arguments by name. This also applies the type of
argument when fetching the argument.
- Introduce '$arg*' wildcard support if BTF is available. This
expands the '$arg*' meta argument to all function argument
automatically.
- Check the return value types by BTF. If the function returns
'void', '$retval' is rejected.
- Add some selftest script for fprobe events, tracepoint events
and BTF support.
- Update documentation about the fprobe events.
- Some fixes for above features, document and selftests.
- selftests for ftrace (in addition to the new fprobe events):
- Add a test case for multiple consecutive probes in a function
which checks if ftrace based kprobe, optimized kprobe and normal
kprobe can be defined in the same target function.
- Add a test case for optimized probe, which checks whether kprobe
can be optimized or not.

Analyzing system call failures with the function_graph tracer can be a
time-consuming process, particularly when locating the kernel function
that first returns an error in the trace logs. This change aims to
simplify the process by recording the function return value to the
'retval' member of 'ftrace_graph_ret' and printing it when outputting
the trace log.
We have introduced new trace options: funcgraph-retval and
funcgraph-retval-hex. The former controls whether to display the return
value, while the latter controls the display format.
Please note that even if a function's return type is void, a return
value will still be printed. You can simply ignore it.
This patch only establishes the fundamental infrastructure. Subsequent
patches will make this feature available on some commonly used processor
architectures.
Here is an example:
I attempted to attach the demo process to a cpu cgroup, but it failed:
echo `pidof demo` > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/tasks
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
The strace logs indicate that the write system call returned -EINVAL(-22):
...
write(1, "273\n", 4) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
...
To capture trace logs during a write system call, use the following
commands:
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo 0 > tracing_on
echo > trace
echo *sys_write > set_graph_function
echo *spin* > set_graph_notrace
echo *rcu* >> set_graph_notrace
echo *alloc* >> set_graph_notrace
echo preempt* >> set_graph_notrace
echo kfree* >> set_graph_notrace
echo $$ > set_ftrace_pid
echo function_graph > current_tracer
echo 1 > options/funcgraph-retval
echo 0 > options/funcgraph-retval-hex
echo 1 > tracing_on
echo `pidof demo` > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/tasks
echo 0 > tracing_on
cat trace > ~/trace.log
To locate the root cause, search for error code -22 directly in the file
trace.log and identify the first function that returned -22. Once you
have identified this function, examine its code to determine the root
cause.
For example, in the trace log below, cpu_cgroup_can_attach
returned -22 first, so we can focus our analysis on this function to
identify the root cause.
...

1) 0.651 us | cgroup_migrate_add_task(); /* = 0xffff93fcfd346c00 */

Support function or tracepoint parameters by name if BTF support is enabled
and the event is for function entry (this feature can be used with kprobe-
events, fprobe-events and tracepoint probe events.)
Note that the BTF variable syntax does not require a prefix. If it starts
with an alphabetic character or an underscore ('_') without a prefix like
'$' and '%', it is considered as a BTF variable.
If you specify only the BTF variable name, the argument name will also
be the same name instead of 'arg*'.

Add fprobe events for tracing function entry and exit instead of kprobe
events. With this change, we can continue to trace function entry/exit
even if the CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is not available. Since
CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE requires the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS,
it is not available if the architecture only supports
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. And that means kprobe events can not
probe function entry/exit effectively on such architecture.
But this can be solved if the dynamic events supports fprobe events.
The fprobe event is a new dynamic events which is only for the function
(symbol) entry and exit. This event accepts non register fetch arguments
so that user can trace the function arguments and return values.
The fprobe events syntax is here;
f[:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION [FETCHARGS]
f[MAXACTIVE][:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION%return [FETCHARGS]
E.g.
# echo 'f vfs_read $arg1' >> dynamic_events
# echo 'f vfs_read%return $retval' >> dynamic_events
# cat dynamic_events
f:fprobes/vfs_read__entry vfs_read arg1=$arg1
f:fprobes/vfs_read__exit vfs_read%return arg1=$retval
# echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
# head -n 20 trace | tail

The user events was added a bit prematurely, and there were a few kernel
developers that had issues with it. The API also needed a bit of work to
make sure it would be stable. It was decided to make user events "broken"
until this was settled. Now it has a new API that appears to be as stable
as it will be without the use of a crystal ball. It's being used within
Microsoft as is, which means the API has had some testing in real world
use cases. It went through many discussions in the bi-weekly tracing
meetings, and there's been no more comments about updates.
I feel this is good to go.

As part of the discussions for user_events aligned with user space
tracers, it was determined that user programs should register a aligned
value to set or clear a bit when an event becomes enabled. Currently a
shared page is being used that requires mmap(). Remove the shared page
implementation and move to a user registered address implementation.
In this new model during the event registration from user programs 3 new
values are specified. The first is the address to update when the event
is either enabled or disabled. The second is the bit to set/clear to
reflect the event being enabled. The third is the size of the value at
the specified address.
This allows for a local 32/64-bit value in user programs to support
both kernel and user tracers. As an example, setting bit 31 for kernel
tracers when the event becomes enabled allows for user tracers to use
the other bits for ref counts or other flags. The kernel side updates
the bit atomically, user programs need to also update these values
atomically.
User provided addresses must be aligned on a natural boundary, this
allows for single page checking and prevents odd behaviors such as a
enable value straddling 2 pages instead of a single page. Currently
page faults are only logged, future patches will handle these.

Direct called trampolines can be called in two ways:
- either from the ftrace callsite. In this case, they do not access any
struct ftrace_regs nor pt_regs
- Or, if a ftrace ops is also attached, from the end of a ftrace
trampoline. In this case, the call_direct_funcs ops is in charge of
setting the direct call trampoline's address in a struct ftrace_regs
Since:
commit 9705bc709604 ("ftrace: pass fregs to arch_ftrace_set_direct_caller()")
The later case no longer requires a full pt_regs. It only needs a struct
ftrace_regs so DIRECT_CALLS can work with both WITH_ARGS or WITH_REGS.
With architectures like arm64 already abandoning WITH_REGS in favor of
WITH_ARGS, it's important to have DIRECT_CALLS work WITH_ARGS only.

support to the Marvell DDR and TAD PMU drivers, reset DTM_PMU_CONFIG
(ARM CMN) at probe time
- Support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS on arm64
- Permit EFI boot with MMU and caches on. Instead of cleaning the
entire loaded kernel image to the PoC and disabling the MMU and
caches before branching to the kernel bare metal entry point, leave
the MMU and caches enabled and rely on EFI's cacheable 1:1 mapping of
all of system RAM to populate the initial page tables
- Expose the AArch32 (compat) ELF_HWCAP features to user in an arm64

The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.
But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:
Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
Many comments and Kconfig help messages in the tracing code still refer
to this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

Architectures without dynamic ftrace trampolines incur an overhead when
multiple ftrace_ops are enabled with distinct filters. in these cases,
each call site calls a common trampoline which uses
ftrace_ops_list_func() to iterate over all enabled ftrace functions, and
so incurs an overhead relative to the size of this list (including RCU
protection overhead).
Architectures with dynamic ftrace trampolines avoid this overhead for
call sites which have a single associated ftrace_ops. In these cases,
the dynamic trampoline is customized to branch directly to the relevant
ftrace function, avoiding the list overhead.
On some architectures it's impractical and/or undesirable to implement
dynamic ftrace trampolines. For example, arm64 has limited branch ranges
and cannot always directly branch from a call site to an arbitrary
address (e.g. from a kernel text address to an arbitrary module
address). Calls from modules to core kernel text can be indirected via
PLTs (allocated at module load time) to address this, but the same is
not possible from calls from core kernel text.
Using an indirect branch from a call site to an arbitrary trampoline is
possible, but requires several more instructions in the function
prologue (or immediately before it), and/or comes with far more complex
requirements for patching.
Instead, this patch adds a new option, where an architecture can
associate each call site with a pointer to an ftrace_ops, placed at a
fixed offset from the call site. A shared trampoline can recover this
pointer and call ftrace_ops::func() without needing to go via
ftrace_ops_list_func(), avoiding the associated overhead.
This avoids issues with branch range limitations, and avoids the need to
allocate and manipulate dynamic trampolines, making it far simpler to
implement and maintain, while having similar performance
characteristics.
Note that this allows for dynamic ftrace_ops to be invoked directly from
an architecture's ftrace_caller trampoline, whereas existing code forces
the use of ftrace_ops_get_list_func(), which is in part necessary to
permit the ftrace_ops to be freed once unregistered *and* to avoid
branch/address-generation range limitation on some architectures (e.g.
where ops->func is a module address, and may be outside of the direct
branch range for callsites within the main kernel image).
The CALL_OPS approach avoids this problems and is safe as:
* The existing synchronization in ftrace_shutdown() using
ftrace_shutdown() using synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() (and
synchronize_rcu_tasks()) ensures that no tasks hold a stale reference
to an ftrace_ops (e.g. in the middle of the ftrace_caller trampoline,
or while invoking ftrace_ops::func), when that ftrace_ops is
unregistered.
Arguably this could also be relied upon for the existing scheme,
permitting dynamic ftrace_ops to be invoked directly when ops->func is
in range, but this will require additional logic to handle branch
range limitations, and is not handled by this patch.
* Each callsite's ftrace_ops pointer literal can hold any valid kernel
address, and is updated atomically. As an architecture's ftrace_caller
trampoline will atomically load the ops pointer then dereference
ops->func, there is no risk of invoking ops->func with a mismatches
ops pointer, and updates to the ops pointer do not require special
care.
A subsequent patch will implement architectures support for arm64. There
should be no functional change as a result of this patch alone.

Both CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER and CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER partially enables the
CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE code, but that is complicated and has
introduced a bug; It declares tracing_max_lat_fops data structure outside
of #ifdefs, but since it is defined only when CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE=y
or CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER=y, if only CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER=y, that
declaration comes to a definition(!).
To fix this issue, and do not repeat the similar problem, makes
CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER and CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER enables the
CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE always. It has there benefits;
- Fix the tracing_max_lat_fops bug
- Simplify the #ifdefs
- CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE code is fully enabled, or not.

In subsequent patches we'll arrange for architectures to have an
ftrace_regs which is entirely distinct from pt_regs. In preparation for
this, we need to minimize the use of pt_regs to where strictly necessary
in the core ftrace code.
This patch adds new ftrace_regs_{get,set}_*() helpers which can be used
to manipulate ftrace_regs. When CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS=y,
these can always be used on any ftrace_regs, and when
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS=n these can be used when regs are
available. A new ftrace_regs_has_args(fregs) helper is added which code
can use to check when these are usable.

Some architectures (powerpc) may not support ftrace locations being nop'ed
out at build time. Introduce CONFIG_HAVE_OBJTOOL_NOP_MCOUNT for objtool, as
a means for architectures to enable nop'ing of ftrace locations. Add --mnop
as an option to objtool --mcount, to indicate support for the same.
Also, make sure that --mnop can be passed as an option to objtool only when
--mcount is passed.

RV is a lightweight (yet rigorous) method that complements classical
exhaustive verification techniques (such as model checking and
theorem proving) with a more practical approach to complex systems.
RV works by analyzing the trace of the system's actual execution,
comparing it against a formal specification of the system behavior.
RV can give precise information on the runtime behavior of the
monitored system while enabling the reaction for unexpected
events, avoiding, for example, the propagation of a failure on
safety-critical systems.
The development of this interface roots in the development of the
paper:
De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot; Cucinotta, Tommaso; De Oliveira, Romulo
Silva. Efficient formal verification for the Linux kernel. In:
International Conference on Software Engineering and Formal Methods.
Springer, Cham, 2019. p. 315-332.
And:
De Oliveira, Daniel Bristot. Automata-based formal analysis
and verification of the real-time Linux kernel. PhD Thesis, 2020.
The RV interface resembles the tracing/ interface on purpose. The current
path for the RV interface is /sys/kernel/tracing/rv/.
It presents these files:
"available_monitors"
- List the available monitors, one per line.
For example:
# cat available_monitors
wip
wwnr
"enabled_monitors"
- Lists the enabled monitors, one per line;
- Writing to it enables a given monitor;
- Writing a monitor name with a '!' prefix disables it;
- Truncating the file disables all enabled monitors.
For example:
# cat enabled_monitors
# echo wip > enabled_monitors
# echo wwnr >> enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
wip
wwnr
# echo '!wip' >> enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
wwnr
# echo > enabled_monitors
# cat enabled_monitors
#
Note that more than one monitor can be enabled concurrently.
"monitoring_on"
- It is an on/off general switcher for monitoring. Note
that it does not disable enabled monitors or detach events,
but stop the per-entity monitors of monitoring the events
received from the system. It resembles the "tracing_on" switcher.
"monitors/"
Each monitor will have its one directory inside "monitors/". There
the monitor specific files will be presented.
The "monitors/" directory resembles the "events" directory on
tracefs.
For example:
# cd monitors/wip/
# ls
desc enable
# cat desc
wakeup in preemptive per-cpu testing monitor.
# cat enable
0

kernel/trace/rv/rv.c from this patch.

It was brought up that on ARMv7, that because the FUNCTION_TRACER does not
use nops to keep function tracing disabled because of the use of a link
register, it does have some performance impact.
The start of functions when -pg is used to compile the kernel is:
push {lr}
bl 8010e7c0 <__gnu_mcount_nc>
When function tracing is tuned off, it becomes:
push {lr}
add sp, sp, #4
Which just puts the stack back to its normal location. But these two
instructions at the start of every function does incur some overhead.
Be more honest in the Kconfig FUNCTION_TRACER description and specify that
the overhead being in the noise was x86 specific, but other architectures
may vary.

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Comprehensive interface overhaul:
=================================
Objtool's interface has some issues:
- Several features are done unconditionally, without any way to
turn them off. Some of them might be surprising. This makes
objtool tricky to use, and prevents porting individual features
to other arches.
- The config dependencies are too coarse-grained. Objtool
enablement is tied to CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION, but it has several
other features independent of that.
- The objtool subcmds ("check" and "orc") are clumsy: "check" is
really a subset of "orc", so it has all the same options.
The subcmd model has never really worked for objtool, as it only
has a single purpose: "do some combination of things on an object
file".
- The '--lto' and '--vmlinux' options are nonsensical and have
surprising behavior.
Overhaul the interface:
- get rid of subcmds
- make all features individually selectable
- remove and/or clarify confusing/obsolete options
- update the documentation
- fix some bugs found along the way
- Fix x32 regression
- Fix Kbuild cleanup bugs
- Add scripts/objdump-func helper script to disassemble a single
function from an object file.
- Rewrite scripts/faddr2line to be section-aware, by basing it on
'readelf', moving it away from 'nm', which doesn't handle multiple
sections well, which can result in decoding failure.
- Rewrite & fix symbol handling - which had a number of bugs wrt.
object files that don't have global symbols - which is rare but
possible. Also fix a bunch of symbol handling bugs found along the
way.

Now that stack validation is an optional feature of objtool, add
CONFIG_OBJTOOL and replace most usages of CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION with
it.
CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION can now be considered to be frame-pointer
specific. CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC is already inherently valid for live
patching, so no need to "validate" it.

Currently, any kernel built with CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y also gets
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU=y, which is not helpful to people trying to build
preemptible kernels of minimal size.
Because CONFIG_TASKS_RCU=y is needed only in kernels doing tracing of
one form or another, this commit moves from TASKS_RCU deciding when it
should be enabled to the tracing Kconfig options explicitly selecting it.
This allows building preemptible kernels without TASKS_RCU, if desired.
This commit also updates the SRCU-N and TREE09 rcutorture scenarios
in order to avoid Kconfig errors that would otherwise result from
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU being selected without its CONFIG_RCU_EXPERT dependency
being met.

After being merged, user_events become more visible to a wider audience
that have concerns with the current API.
It is too late to fix this for this release, but instead of a full
revert, just mark it as BROKEN (which prevents it from being selected in
make config). Then we can work finding a better API. If that fails,
then it will need to be completely reverted.
To not have the code silently bitrot, still allow building it with
COMPILE_TEST.
And to prevent the uapi header from being installed, then later changed,
and then have an old distro user space see the old version, move the
header file out of the uapi directory.
Surround the include with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST to the current location,
but when the BROKEN tag is taken off, it will use the uapi directory,
and fail to compile. This is a good way to remind us to move the header
back.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"The sprinkling of SPI drivers is because we added a new one and Mark
sent us a SPI driver interface conversion pull request.
Core
----
- Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with
jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).
- Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
to complete out of order.
- Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).
- Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the
stack.
- Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
allocated per-CPU counters.
- Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
- Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.
BPF
---
- Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB
pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting
split.
- Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.
- Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the
user-mode-driver dependency.
- Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
its use as a packet generator.
- Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if
called from a hook allowed to sleep.
- Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
bits to come later).
- Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
kfunc infra.
- Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.
- Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.
- Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.
- Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.
- Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
without BTF info.
- Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.
Protocols
---------
- Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.
- Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.
- Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
behavior.
- VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.
- Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.
- Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)
- Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.
- Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.
- Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).
- tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
doubling the performance in some scenarios.
- IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.
- Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.
- SMC
- improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
- support auto-corking
- support TCP_NODELAY
- MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
- add user space tag control interface
- I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)
- Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.
- Bluetooth:
- handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
- add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events
- Multi-Path TCP:
- add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
- lots of selftest cleanups and improvements
- Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.
Driver API
----------
- Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
software interfaces such as tunnels.
- Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.
- Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.
- Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of
TCP zero-copy Rx.
- Allow configuring completion queue event size.
- Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.
- Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.
- Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.
- DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
- replay and offload of host VLAN entries
- offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
- FDB isolation and unicast filtering
New hardware / drivers
----------------------
- Ethernet:
- LAN937x T1 PHYs
- Davicom DM9051 SPI NIC driver
- Realtek RTL8367S, RTL8367RB-VB switch and MDIO
- Microchip ksz8563 switches
- Netronome NFP3800 SmartNI |
