No user currently relies on sparse CPU masks, but the descriptor logic already
supports them via linear fallback. Remove the arbitrary limitation.

If page allocation fails in trace_remote_alloc_buffer(), desc->nr_cpus
is not yet incremented for the current CPU. As a consequence, on error,
half-allocated rb_desc will not be freed in trace_remote_free_buffer().
Increment desc->nr_cpus as soon as the first allocation for the current
CPU has succeeded.

user_event_mm_dup() walks the parent mm's enabler list locklessly under
rcu_read_lock() during fork() (from copy_process()); it does not take
event_mutex:
rcu_read_lock();
list_for_each_entry_rcu(enabler, &old_mm->enablers, mm_enablers_link)
enabler->event = user_event_get(orig->event);
user_event_enabler_destroy() removes an enabler from that list with
list_del_rcu() and then, without waiting for a grace period, drops the
enabler's user_event reference with user_event_put() and frees the enabler
with kfree(). A reader that loaded the enabler before the list_del_rcu()
can still be walking it, which leads to two use-after-frees:
- kfree(enabler) frees the enabler while that reader dereferences
enabler->event.
- user_event_put() may drop the last reference to the user_event, which
is then freed (via delayed_destroy_user_event() on a work queue), while
the same reader does user_event_get(orig->event) on it.
Both are reachable by an unprivileged task that can open user_events_data:
one multithreaded process that registers an enabler and then concurrently
unregisters it and calls fork() triggers the race. KASAN reports a
slab-use-after-free in user_event_mm_dup() during clone(), with a
"refcount_t: addition on 0" warning when the user_event is freed.
The enabler use-after-free was found first; the user_event one was reported
by XIAO WU, and the earlier enabler-only fix did not address it.
Defer both the user_event_put() and the kfree(enabler) to a work item
queued with queue_rcu_work(), so they run only after an RCU grace period,
once all readers walking the enabler list have finished. The put must run
in process context because user_event_put() takes event_mutex on the last
reference, so a work queue is used rather than call_rcu(). The now-unlocked
put lets the locked argument of user_event_enabler_destroy() be removed;
all callers are updated.

Tracepoints require that RCU is watching. To prevent them from being used
in places that RCU is not watching, the trace_##event() macro always
calls rcu_is_watching() even when the event is not enabled and warns if
RCU is not watching. This is to make sure a warning is triggered even if
the tracepoint is never enabled (as it is only a bug when it is).
It was noticed that tracepoints could be hidden within
trace_#event#_enabled() calls, which are used to do extra work for the
tracepoint only if the tracepoint is enabled. But this also can hide the
fact that a tracepoint is placed in a location that can be called when RCU
is not watching.
Commit 9764e731ef6ab ("tracepoint: Add lockdep rcu_is_watching() check to
trace_##name##_enabled()") added a check to the trace_##event##_enabled()
macro to make sure RCU is watching when it is called to make sure not to
hide the bug of a tracepoint being called when RCU is not watching.
There is one case in the irq_disable tracepoint where it is within a
trace_irq_disable_enabled() block, but it checks if RCU is watching, and
if it isn't, it makes a call to ct_irq_enter() that makes RCU watch again.
But because trace_irq_disable_enabled() now checks if RCU is watching and
will trigger if it isn't. This is a false warning as the code within
the block handles this case.
Add a new internal macro __trace_##event##_enabled() that doesn't check if
RCU is watching, and convert the irq_enable/disable tracepoints over to
it.

String event fields are not necessarily NUL-terminated, so the filter
predicate functions (filter_pred_string(), filter_pred_strloc() and
filter_pred_strrelloc()) pass the field length to the regex match
callbacks, and the length-aware matchers honour it.
regex_match_glob() was the exception: it ignored the length and called
glob_match(), which scans the string until it hits a NUL byte. Some
string fields are not NUL-terminated. One example is the dynamic char
array of the xfs_* namespace tracepoints, which is copied without a
trailing NUL. For such a field, glob matching reads past the end of
the event field, causing a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read in
glob_match(), reached via regex_match_glob() and filter_match_preds()
from the xfs_lookup tracepoint.
Add a length-bounded glob_match_len() and use it from regex_match_glob()
so glob matching always stops at the field boundary. The matching loop
is factored into a shared helper so glob_match() keeps its behaviour.

func_set_flag() dereferences tr->current_trace_flags before verifying
that the current tracer is actually the function tracer. When the active
tracer has been switched away from "function" (e.g., to "wakeup_rt"),
tr->current_trace_flags can be NULL, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference and kernel crash.
The call chain that triggers this is:
trace_options_write()
-> __set_tracer_option()
-> trace->set_flag() /* func_set_flag */
In func_set_flag(), the first operation is:
if (!!set == !!(tr->current_trace_flags->val & bit))
This dereferences tr->current_trace_flags unconditionally. The safety
check that guards against a non-function tracer:
if (tr->current_trace != &function_trace)
return 0;
is placed *after* the dereference, which is too late.
This was observed with the following crash dump:
BUG: unable to handle page fault at 0000000000000000
RIP: func_set_flag+0xd
Call Trace:
__set_tracer_option+0x27

RDX: 0000000000000001 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffffffff93918080
The disassembly confirms the fault:
func_set_flag+0: mov 0x1f08(%rdi), %rax ; RAX = tr->current_trace_flags = NULL
func_set_flag+13: mov (%rax), %eax ; page fault: dereference NULL
At the time of the crash:
tr->current_trace_flags = 0x0 (NULL)
tr->current_trace = wakeup_rt_tracer (not function_trace)
The scenario is that a process opens a function tracer option file (such
as "func_stack_trace"), then the current tracer is switched to another
tracer (e.g., "wakeup_rt"), which sets current_trace_flags to NULL. When
the process subsequently writes to the option file, func_set_flag() is
invoked and crashes on the NULL dereference.
Fix this by moving the current_trace check before the
current_trace_flags dereference, so that func_set_flag() returns early
when the function tracer is not active.

Commit 8928e4a3be34 ("ring-buffer: Show persistent buffer dropped events
in trace_pipe file") split the "commit" variable in
ring_buffer_read_page() into "commit" (raw) and "size" (masked page
size), but the inner copy loop's terminator was changed to compare rpos
against "event_size" instead of "size".
rpos is the cumulative read offset within the page; event_size is the
length of the single event just copied. The loop thus breaks after the
first event, so only one event is copied per call. This regresses the
per-event memcpy path (partial reads, the active commit page, and
mapped/remote buffers) used by splice/trace_pipe_raw and mmap consumers
into a one-event-at-a-time read.
Compare rpos against the page size as the original code did.

In tracing_set_tracer(), the assignment 'ret = 0' following the
__tracing_resize_ring_buffer() error check is a dead store. After
this point, all subsequent code paths either return with a constant
value (-EINVAL, 0, -EBUSY) or reassign ret before reading it
(tracing_arm_snapshot_locked, tracer_init).
Remove the unnecessary assignment.

When RB_FORCE_8BYTE_ALIGNMENT is true, rb_calculate_event_length()
reserves the space of event->array[0] for placing the data length and
rb_update_event() stores the data length in event->array[0]
accordingly. As a result the whole event length will add extra 4 bytes
for sizeof(event.array[0]) unconditionally.
But ring_buffer_event_length() only subtracts the
sizeof(event->array[0]) for events larger than RB_MAX_SMALL_DATA +
sizeof(event->array[0]). As a result, small events on architectures
with RB_FORCE_8BYTE_ALIGNMENT=true report a data length that is 4
bytes larger than expected.
To fix it, add the RB_FORCE_8BYTE_ALIGNMENT as a condition to subtract
the size of that length field whenever RB_FORCE_8BYTE_ALIGNMENT is
true.
This issue is observed in a riscv64 kernel with
CONFIG_HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS set to y, when we run ftrace selftest
trace_marker_raw.tc, we get the weird log: for cases where the id is
1..100, the number of data field is 8*N, but once id exceeds 100, the
number of data field becomes 8*N+4:
# 1 buf: 58 00 00 00 80 5e d1 63 (number of data field is 8*1)
...
# a buf: 58 ... (number of data field is 8*2)
...
# 64 buf: 58 ... (number of data field is 8*13)
# 65 buf: 58 ... (number of data field is 8*13+4)
After applying this change, the number of data field keeps being 8*N+4
consistently.

For a char * element in an event, the FILTER_PTR_STRING filter type is
used. When the event occurs, a pointer is stored in the ringbuffer.
If an eprobe references such a char * element of a "base event", the
stored pointer is truncated when it's read from the ringbuffer.

Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt
- Do not invalidate entire buffer for invalid sub-buffers
For the persistent ring buffer, if one sub-buffer is found to be
invalid, it invalidates the entire per CPU ring buffer. This can lose
a lot of valuable data if there's some corruption with the writes to
the buffer not syncing properly on a hard crash. Instead, if a
sub-buffer is found to be invalid, simply zero it out and mark it for
"missed events".
When the persistent ring buffer is read and a sub-buffer that was
cleared due to being invalid on boot up is discovered, the output
will show "[LOST EVENTS]" to let the user know that events were
missing at that location. Displaying the events from valid buffers
can still be useful.
- Add a test to be able to test corrupted sub-buffers
If a persistent ring buffer is created as "ptraingtest" and the new
config that adds the test is enabled, when a panic happens, the
kernel will randomly corrupt one of the per CPU ring buffers. On boot
up, the sub-buffers with the corruption should be cleared and
flagged. When reading this buffer, the missed events should should
[LOST EVENTS].
- Add commit number in the sub-buffer meta debug info
The commit is used to know the content of a meta page. Add it to the
buffer_meta file that is shown for each per CPU buffer.
- Clean up the persistent ring buffer validation code
Add some helper functions and make variable names more consistent.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Remove a redundant IS_ERR() check
trace_pipe_open() already checks for IS_ERR() and does it again in
the return path. Remove the return check.
- Export seq_buf_putmem_hex() to allow kunit tests against them
To add Kunit tests on seq_buf_putmem_hex(), it needs to be exported.
- Replace strcat() and strcpy() with seq_buf() logic
The code for synthetic events uses a series of strcat() and strcpy()
which can be error prone. Replace them with seq_buf() logic that does
all the necessary bound checking.
- Add a lockdep rcu_is_watching() to trace_##event##_enabled() call
The trace_##event##_enabled() is a static branch that is true if the
"event" is enabled. But this can hide bugs if this logic is in a
location where RCU is disabled and not "watching". It would only
trigger if lockdep is enabled and the event is enabled.
Add a "rcu_is_watching()" warning if lockdep is enabled in that
helper function to trigger regardless if the event is enabled or not.
- Remove the local variable in the trace_printk() macro
For name space integrity, remove the _______STR variable in the
trace_printk() macro for using the sizeof() macro directly.
- Use guard()s for the trace_recursion_record.c file
- Fix typo in a comment of eventfs_callback() kerneldoc
- Use trace_call__##event() in events within trace_##event##_enabled()
A couple of events are called within an if block guarded by
trace_##event##_enabled(). That is a static key that is only enabled
when the event is enabled. The trace_call_##event() calls the
tracepoint code directly without adding a redundant static key for
that check.
- Allow perf to read synthetic events
Currently, perf does not have the ability to enable a synthetic
event. If it does, it will either cause a kernel warning or error
with "No such device". Synthetic events are not much different than
kprobes and perf can handle fine with a few modifications.
- Replace printk(KERN_WARNING ...) with pr_warn()
- Replace krealloc() on an array with krealloc_array()
- Fix README file path name for synthetic events
- Change tracing_map tracing_map_array to use a flexible array
Instead of allocating a separate pointer to hold the pages field of
tracing_map_array, allocate the pages field as a flexible array when
allocating the structure.
- Fold trace_iterator_increment() into trace_find_next_entry_inc()
The function trace_iterator_increment() was only used by
trace_find_next_entry_inc(). It's not big enough to be a helper
function for one user. Fold it into its caller.
- Make field_var_str field a flexible array of hist_elt_data
Instead of allocating a separate pointer for the field_var_str array
of the hist_elt_data structure, allocate it as a flexible array when
allocating the structure.
- Disable KCOV for trace_irqsoff.c
Like trace_preemptirq.c, trace_irqsoff.c has code that will crash
when KCOV is enabled on ARM. The irqsoff tracing can be called on ARM
because the irqsoff tracing code can be run from early interrupt code
and produce coverage unrelated to syscall inputs.
- Fix warning in __unregister_ftrace_function() called by perf
Perf calls unregister_ftrace_function() without checking if its
ftrace_ops has already been unregistered. There's an error path where
on clean up it will unregister the ftrace_ops even if it wasn't
registered and causes a warning.

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.

Allow uprobe_multi link to identify the target binary by an already
opened file descriptor.
Adding new BPF_F_UPROBE_MULTI_PATH_FD flag and the path_fd field for
the attr.link_create.uprobe_multi struct.
When the flag is set, we resolve the target from path_fd, without the
flag, we keep the existing string path behavior.
I don't see a use case for supporting O_PATH file descriptors, because
we need to read the binary first to get probes offsets, so I'm using
the CLASS(fd, f), which fails for O_PATH fds.

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
