Pull tracing latency updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Dump the stack to the buffer on timerlat uret threashold event
Record the stack trace in the buffer for THREAD_URET as well as
THREAD_CONTEXT when the threshold is hit. Otherwise, if the threshold
was not hit at task wakeup, but was at task return, it will not
produce a stack trace making it harder to debug.
- Have osnoise trace prints print to all buffers
The osnoise tracer is allowed to print to the main buffer. Add a
osnoise_print() helper function and use trace_array_vprintk() to
print osnoise output.

Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:
- BTF support for dereferencing pointers
Add syntax to the parsing of eprobes to typecast structure pointer
trace event fields, enabling BTF-based dereferencing instead of
relying on manual offsets.
- Improvements and robustness enhancements
- Use flexible array for entry fetch code.
Store probe entry fetch instructions in the probe_entry_arg
allocation via a flexible array member to simplify memory
allocation and lifetime management.
- Replace BUG_ON with lockdep_assert_held in uprobe_buffer functions
Replace BUG_ON() calls with lockdep_assert_held() in uprobe buffer
enable/disable paths to prevent kernel crashes and better verify
lock ownership.
- Ensure the uprobe buffer size is bigger than event size.
Add a BUILD_BUG_ON() assertion to guarantee that the per-CPU
uprobe working buffer size is always larger than the maximum probe
event size.

Pull runtime verifier fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix reset ordering on per-task destruction
Reset the task before dropping the slot instead of after, which was
causing out-of-bound memory accesses.
- Fix HA monitor synchronization and cleanup
Ensure synchronous cleanup for HA monitors by running timer callbacks
in RCU read-side critical sections and using synchronize_rcu() during
destruction.
- Avoid armed timers after tasks exit
Add automatic cleanup for per-task HA monitors to prevent timers from
firing after task exit.
- Fix memory ordering for DA/HA monitors
Fix race conditions during monitor start by using release-acquire
semantics for the monitoring flag.
- Fix initialization for DA/HA monitors
Ensure monitors are not initialized relying on potentially corrupted
state like the monitoring flag, that is not reset by all monitors
type and may have an unknown state in monitors reusing the storage
(per-task).
- Fix memory safety in per-task and per-object monitors
Prevent use-after-free and out-of-bounds access by synchronizing with
in-flight tracepoint probes using tracepoint_synchronize_unregister()
before freeing monitor storage or releasing task slots.
- Adjust monitors for preemptible tracepoints
Fix monitors that relied on tracepoints disabling preemption.
Explicitly disable task migration when per-CPU monitors handle events
to avoid accessing the wrong state and update the opid monitor logic.
- Fix incorrect __user specifier usage
Remove __user from a non-pointer variable in the extract_params()
helper.
- Fix bugs in the rv tool

Tracepoint handlers no longer run with preemption disabled by default
since a46023d5616 ("tracing: Guard __DECLARE_TRACE() use of

Hybrid automata monitors may start timers, depending on the model, these
may remain active on an exiting task and cause false positives or even
access freed memory.
Add an enable/disable hook in the HA code, currently only populated by
the per-task handler for registration and deregistration.
This hooks to the sched_process_exit event and ensures the timer is
stopped for every exiting task. The handler is enabled automatically but
may be disabled, for instance if the monitor uses the event for another
purpose (but should still manually ensure timers are stopped).

Add syntax to the parsing of eprobes to be able to typecast a trace event
field that is a pointer to a structure.
Currently, a dereference must be a number, where the user has to figure
out manually the offset of a member of a structure that they want to
dereference.
But for event probes that records a field that happens to be a pointer to
a structure, it cannot dereference these values with BTF naming, but
must use numerical offsets.
For example, to find out what device a sk_buff is pointing to in the
net_dev_xmit trace event, one must first use gdb to find the offsets of the
members of the structures:
(gdb) p &((struct sk_buff *)0)->dev
$1 = (struct net_device **) 0x10
(gdb) p &((struct net_device *)0)->name
$2 = (char (*)[16]) 0x118
And then use the raw numbers to dereference:
# echo 'e:xmit net.net_dev_xmit +0x118(+0x10($skbaddr)):string' >> dynamic_events
If BTF is in the kernel, then instead, the skbaddr can be typecast to
sk_buff and use the normal dereference logic.
# echo 'e:xmit net.net_dev_xmit (sk_buff)skbaddr->dev->name:string' >> dynamic_events
# echo 1 > events/eprobes/xmit/enable
# cat trace

Fix to point the error offset correctly for eprobe argument error.
In the cleanup commit 1b8b0cd754cd ("tracing/probes: Move event parameter
fetching code to common parser"), due to incorrect backward compatibility
aimed at conforming to the test specifications, the error location was set
to 0 when a non-existent formal parameter was specified for Eprobe.
However, this should be corrected in both the test and the implementation
to point correct error position.

None of the calls to trace_array_printk_buf() will do anything
if we don't initialize the buffer on instance creation (unless
some other tracer called it), so do that.
Add an osnoise_print() function to facilitate adding debug prints
(without tainting).
Use trace_array_printk() instead of trace_array_printk_buf(), as we're
only writing to the main buffer (of a non-main instance) anyway -- and
trace_array_printk_buf() skips the check to make sure we're not printing
to the global instance.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Avoid NULL return from hist_field_name()
The function hist_field_name() is directly passed to a strcat() which
does not handle "NULL" characters. Return a zero length string when
size is greater than the limit.
This is used only to output already created histograms and no field
currently is greater than the limit. But it should still not return
NULL.
- Do not call map->ops->elt_free() on allocation failure
When elt_alloc() fails, it should not call the map->ops->elt_free()
function if it exists, as that function may not be able to handle the
free on allocation failures. The ->elt_free() should only be called
when elt_alloc() succeeds.

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.
To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

When tracing is active while reading the trace file, if the iterator
reading the buffer detects that the writer has passed the iterator head,
it will reset and set a "missed events" flag. This flag is passed to the
output processing to show the user that events were missed:
CPU:4 [LOST EVENTS]
The problem is that the flag is reset after it is checked in
ring_buffer_iter_dropped(). But the "trace" file iterates over all the CPU
ring buffers and it will check if they are dropped when figuring out which
buffer to print next. This prematurely clears the missed_events flag if
the CPU buffer with the missed events is not the one that is printed next.
On the iteration where the CPU buffer with the missed events is printed,
the check if it had missed events would return false and the output does
not show that events were missed.
Do not reset the missed_events flag when checking if there were missed
events, but instead clear it when moving the iterator head to the next
event.

Dump the saved IRQ stack trace regardless of whether the event was
THREAD_CONTEXT or THREAD_URET.
In the uret case, the latency presumably had not yet crossed the
threshold at IRQ time (or else it would have dumped the stack at thread
wakeup time, unless we're racing with a change to the threshold), but it
may have at least contributed -- and this is possible with THREAD_CONTEXT
as well.
In any case, it helps with writing reliable rtla tests if we always get
a stack trace on a threshold event.

hist_field_name() returns "" everywhere except the fully-qualified
VAR_REF/EXPR case, where snprintf() truncation returns NULL early
and bypasses the bottom NULL->"" guard. Callers don't expect NULL:
strcat(expr, hist_field_name(field, 0)) at trace_events_hist.c:1758
and the strcmp() in the sort-key match loop at :4804 both deref it.
system and event_name are bounded by MAX_EVENT_NAME_LEN, but the
field name on a VAR_REF is kstrdup'd from a histogram variable
name parsed out of the trigger string and has no length cap, so
a long enough var name in a fully qualified reference can reach
the truncation path.
Keep the length check but leave field_name as "" on overflow.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Add more functions to the remote allowed list
randconfig found more functions that are allowed for the remote code
for s390 and arm. Add them to the allowed list.
- Fix remote_test error path
If one of the simple ring buffers fails to load, the code is supposed
to rollback its initialized buffers. Instead of rolling back the
buffers for the failed load, it uses the global variable and rolls
back all the successfully loaded buffers.

ring-buffer remote: Avoid unexpected symbol warnings (arm, s390)
|
|
During initialisation in remote_test_load(), if one of the
simple_ring_buffer fails to initialise, the error path attempts to
rollback initialised buffers. However, the rollback incorrectly uses the
global pointer to the trace descriptor, which is only set upon
successful load completion. Fix the error path by using the local
pointer to the descriptor.

Commit 4346ba1604093 ("fprobe: Rewrite fprobe on function-graph tracer")
changed fprobe to register struct fprobe to an rcu-hlist, but it forgot
to wait for RCU GP. Thus there can be use-after-free if the fprobe is
released right after unregistering. This can be happened on fprobe
event and sample module code.
To fix this issue, add synchronize_rcu() in unregister_fprobe().
Note that BPF is OK because fprobe is used as a part of
bpf_kprobe_multi_link. This unregisters its fprobe in
bpf_kprobe_multi_link_release() and it is deallocated via
bpf_kprobe_multi_link_dealloc(), which is invoked from
bpf_link_defer_dealloc_rcu_gp() RCU callback.
For BPF, this also introduced unregister_fprobe_async() which does
NOT wait for RCU grace priod.

There currently isn't a max limit an event probe can be. One could make an
event greater than PAGE_SIZE, which makes the event useless because if
it's bigger than the max event that can be recorded into the ring buffer,
then it will never be recorded.
A event probe should never need to be greater than 3K, so make that the
max size. As long as the max is less than the max that can be recorded
onto the ring buffer, it should be fine.

init_annotated_branch_stats() and all_annotated_branch_stats() check the
return value of register_stat_tracer() with "if (!ret)", but
register_stat_tracer() returns 0 on success and a negative errno on
failure. The inverted check causes the warning to be printed on every
successful registration, e.g.:
Warning: could not register annotated branches stats
while leaving real failures silent. The initcall also returned a
hard-coded 1 instead of the actual error.
Invert the check and propagate ret so that the warning fires on real
errors and the initcall reports the correct status.

Pull ring-buffer fix from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix accounting of persistent ring buffer rewind
On boot up, the head page is moved back to the earliest point of the
saved ring buffer. This is because the ring buffer being read by user
space on a crash may not save the part it read. Rewinding the head
page back to the earliest saved position helps keep those events from
being lost.
The number of events is also read during boot up and displayed in the
stats file in the tracefs directory. It's also used for other
accounting as well. On boot up, the "reader page" is accounted for
but a rewind may put it back into the buffer and then the reader page
may be accounted for again.
Save off the original reader page and skip accounting it when
scanning the pages in the ring buffer.

Since the cpu_buffer->reader_page is updated if there are unwound
pages. After that update, we should skip the page if it is the
original reader_page, because the original reader_page is already

Pull ring-buffer fix from Steven Rostedt:
- Make undefsyms_base.c into a real file
The file undefsyms_base.c is used to catch any symbols used by a
remote ring buffer that is made for use of a pKVM hypervisor. As it
doesn't share the same text as the rest of the kernel, referencing
any symbols within the kernel will make it fail to be built for the
standalone hypervisor.
A file was created by the Makefile that checked for any symbols that
could cause issues. There's no reason to have this file created by
the Makefile, just create it as a normal file instead.

Linus points out that dumping undefsyms_base.c form the Makefile
is rather ugly, and that a much better course of action would be

the .gitignore file in kernel/trace.

Fix fprobe to unregister ftrace_ops if corresponding type of fprobe
does not exist on the fprobe_ip_table and it is expected to be empty
when unloading modules.
Since ftrace thinks that the empty hash means everything to be traced,
if we set fprobes only on the unloaded module, all functions are traced
unexpectedly after unloading module.
e.g.
# modprobe xt_LOG.ko
# echo 'f:test log_tg*' > dynamic_events
# echo 1 > events/fprobes/test/enable
# cat enabled_functions
log_tg [xt_LOG] (1) tramp: 0xffffffffa0004000 (fprobe_ftrace_entry+0x0/0x490) ->fprobe_ftrace_entry+0x0/0x490

Commit 2c67dc457bc6 ("tracing: fprobe: optimization for entry only case")
introduced a different ftrace_ops for entry-only fprobes.
However, when unregistering an fprobe, the kernel only checks if another
fprobe exists at the same address, without checking which type of fprobe
it is.
If different fprobes are registered at the same address, the same address
will be registered in both fgraph_ops and ftrace_ops, but only one of
them will be deleted when unregistering. (the one removed first will not
be deleted from the ops).
This results in junk entries remaining in either fgraph_ops or ftrace_ops.
For example:
=======
cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# 'Add entry and exit events on the same place'
echo 'f:event1 vfs_read' >> dynamic_events
echo 'f:event2 vfs_read%return' >> dynamic_events
# 'Enable both of them'
echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
cat enabled_functions
vfs_read (2) ->arch_ftrace_ops_list_func+0x0/0x210
# 'Disable and remove exit event'
echo 0 > events/fprobes/event2/enable
echo -:event2 >> dynamic_events
# 'Disable and remove all events'
echo 0 > events/fprobes/enable
echo > dynamic_events
# 'Add another event'
echo 'f:event3 vfs_open%return' > dynamic_events
cat dynamic_events
f:fprobes/event3 vfs_open%return
echo 1 > events/fprobes/enable
cat enabled_functions
vfs_open (1) tramp: 0xffffffffa0001000 (ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60) ->ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60 subops: {ent:fprobe_fgraph_entry+0x0/0x620 ret:fprobe_return+0x0/0x150}
vfs_read (1) tramp: 0xffffffffa0001000 (ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60) ->ftrace_graph_func+0x0/0x60 subops: {ent:fprobe_fgraph_entry+0x0/0x620 ret:fprobe_return+0x0/0x150}
=======
As you can see, an entry for the vfs_read remains.
To fix this issue, when unregistering, the kernel should also check if
there is the same type of fprobes still exist at the same address, and
if not, delete its entry from either fgraph_ops or ftrace_ops.

When register_fprobe_ips() fails, it tries to remove a list of
fprobe_hash_node from fprobe_ip_table, but it missed to remove
fprobe itself from fprobe_table. Moreover, when removing
the fprobe_hash_node which is added to rhltable once, it must
use kfree_rcu() after removing from rhltable.
To fix these issues, this reuses unregister_fprobe() internal
code to rollback the half-way registered fprobe.

unregister_fprobe() can fail under memory pressure because of memory
allocation failure, but this maybe called from module unloading, and
usually there is no way to retry it. Moreover. trace_fprobe does not
check the return value.
To fix this problem, unregister fprobe and fprobe_hash_node even if
working memory allocation fails.
Anyway, if the last fprobe is removed, the filter will be freed.

Reject registration of a registered fprobe which is on the fprobe
hash table before initializing fprobe.
The add_fprobe_hash() checks this re-register fprobe, but since
fprobe_init() clears hlist_array field, it is too late to check it.
It has to check the re-registration before touncing fprobe.

Honestly, it *should* have been just a real honest-to-goodness regular
