Pass the trace_array associated to a ftrace_probe_ops into the probe_ops
func(), init() and free() functions. The trace_array is the descriptor that
describes a tracing instance. This will help create the infrastructure that
will allow having function probes unique to tracing instances.

Add a link list to the trace_array to hold func probes that are registered.
Currently, all function probes are the same for all instances as it was
before, that is, only the top level trace_array holds the function probes.
But this lays the ground work to have function probes be attached to
individual instances, and having the event trigger only affect events in the
given instance. But that work is still to be done.

Now that the function probes have their own ftrace_ops, there's no reason to

No users of the function probes uses the data field anymore. Remove it, and
change the init function to take a void *data parameter instead of a
void **data, because the init will just get the data that the registering
function was received, and there's no state after it is called.
The other functions for ftrace_probe_ops still take the data parameter, but
it will currently only be passed NULL. It will stay as a parameter for
future data to be passed to these functions.

The trace_event benchmark thread runs in kernel space in an infinite loop
while also calling cond_resched() in case anything else wants to schedule
in. Unfortunately, on a PREEMPT kernel, that makes it a nop, in which case,
this will never voluntarily schedule. That will cause synchronize_rcu_tasks()
to forever block on this thread, while it is running.
This is exactly what cond_resched_rcu_qs() is for. Use that instead.

t_hash_start() does not increment *pos, where as t_next() must. But when

# echo do_IRQ:traceoff > set_ftrace_filter
# echo call_rcu > set_ftrace_filter
# cat set_ftrace_filter

do_IRQ:traceoff:unlimited

# echo xfrm_policy_destroy_rcu >> set_ftrace_filter
# cat set_ftrace_filter

Tracing uses rcu_irq_enter() as a way to make sure that RCU is watching when
it needs to use rcu_read_lock() and friends. This is because tracing can
happen as RCU is about to enter user space, or about to go idle, and RCU
does not watch for RCU read side critical sections as it makes the
transition.
There is a small location within the RCU infrastructure that rcu_irq_enter()
itself will not work. If tracing were to occur in that section it will break
if it tries to use rcu_irq_enter().
Originally, this happens with the stack_tracer, because it will call
save_stack_trace when it encounters stack usage that is greater than any
stack usage it had encountered previously. There was a case where that
happened in the RCU section where rcu_irq_enter() did not work, and lockdep
complained loudly about it. To fix it, stack tracing added a call to be
disabled and RCU would disable stack tracing during the critical section
that rcu_irq_enter() was inoperable. This solution worked, but there are
other cases that use rcu_irq_enter() and it would be a good idea to let RCU
give a way to let others know that rcu_irq_enter() will not work. For
example, in trace events.
Another helpful aspect of this change is that it also moves the per cpu
variable called in the RCU critical section into a cache locale along with
other RCU per cpu variables used in that same location.
I'm keeping the stack_trace_disable() code, as that still could be used in
the future by places that really need to disable it. And since it's only a
static inline, it wont take up any kernel text if it is not used.

The function tracer needs to be more careful than other subsystems when it
comes to freeing data. Especially if that data is actually executable code.
When a single function is traced, a trampoline can be dynamically allocated
which is called to jump to the function trace callback. When the callback is
no longer needed, the dynamic allocated trampoline needs to be freed. This
is where the issues arise. The dynamically allocated trampoline must not be
used again. As function tracing can trace all subsystems, including
subsystems that are used to serialize aspects of freeing (namely RCU), it
must take extra care when doing the freeing.
Before synchronize_rcu_tasks() was around, there was no way for the function
tracer to know that nothing was using the dynamically allocated trampoline
when CONFIG_PREEMPT was enabled. That's because a task could be indefinitely
preempted while sitting on the trampoline. Now with synchronize_rcu_tasks(),
it will wait till all tasks have either voluntarily scheduled (not on the
trampoline) or goes into userspace (not on the trampoline). Then it is safe
to free the trampoline even with CONFIG_PREEMPT set.

When a kretprobe is installed on a kernel function, there is a maximum
limit of how many calls in parallel it can catch (aka "maxactive"). A
kernel module could call register_kretprobe() and initialize maxactive
(see example in samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c).
But that is not exposed to userspace and it is currently not possible to
choose maxactive when writing to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
The default maxactive can be as low as 1 on single-core with a
non-preemptive kernel. This is too low and we need to increase it not
only for recursive functions, but for functions that sleep or resched.
This patch updates the format of the command that can be written to
kprobe_events so that maxactive can be optionally specified.
I need this for a bpf program attached to the kretprobe of
inet_csk_accept, which can sleep for a long time.

Relying on free_reserved_area() to call ftrace to free init memory proved to
not be sufficient. The issue is that on x86, when debug_pagealloc is
enabled, the init memory is not freed, but simply set as not present. Since
ftrace was uninformed of this, starting function tracing still tries to
update pages that are not present according to the page tables, causing
ftrace to bug, as well as killing the kernel itself.
Instead of relying on free_reserved_area(), have init/main.c call ftrace
directly just before it frees the init memory. Then it needs to use
__init_begin and __init_end to know where the init memory location is.
Looking at all archs (and testing what I can), it appears that this should
work for each of them.

This is due to the way t_start() calls t_next() as well as the seq_file
calls t_next() and the state is slightly different between the two. Namely,
t_start() will call t_next() with a local "pos" variable.
By separating out the function listing from t_next() into its own function,
we can have better control of outputting the functions and the hash of
triggers. This simplifies the code.

If all functions are enabled, there's a comment displayed in the file to
denote that:

If a function trigger is set, those are displayed as well:
# echo schedule:traceoff >> /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
# cat set_ftrace_filter
#### all functions enabled ####
schedule:traceoff:unlimited
But if you read that file with dd, the output can change:
# dd if=/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter bs=1
#### all functions enabled ####
32+0 records in

This is because the "pos" variable is updated for the comment, but func_pos
is not. "func_pos" is used by the triggers (or hashes) to know how many
functions were printed and it bases its index from the pos - func_pos.
func_pos should be 1 to count for the comment printed. But since it is not,
t_hash_start() thinks that one trigger was already printed.
The cat gets to t_hash_start() via t_next() and not t_start() which updates
both pos and func_pos.

static inline enum print_line_t trace_handle_return(struct trace_seq *s)
{
return trace_seq_has_overflowed(s) ?
TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE : TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED;
}
Where trace_seq_overflowed(s) is:
static inline bool trace_seq_has_overflowed(struct trace_seq *s)
{
return s->full || seq_buf_has_overflowed(&s->seq);
}
And seq_buf_has_overflowed(&s->seq) is:
static inline bool
seq_buf_has_overflowed(struct seq_buf *s)
{
return s->len > s->size;
}
Making trace_handle_return() into:
return (s->full || (s->seq->len > s->seq->size)) ?
TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE :
TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED;
One would think this is not an issue to keep as an inline. But because this
is used in the TRACE_EVENT() macro, it is extended for every tracepoint in
the system. Taking a look at a single tracepoint x86_irq_vector (was the
first one I randomly chosen). As trace_handle_return is used in the
TRACE_EVENT() macro of trace_raw_output_##call() we disassemble
trace_raw_output_x86_irq_vector and do a diff:
- is the original
+ is the out-of-line code
I removed identical lines that were different just due to different
addresses.

Adding an alignment in the module linker script appeared to be the best
solution.
Jump labels also added an anonymous union to access those LSB bits as a

older compilers that could not statically initialize anonymous unions
without brackets.
The command line parameter for setting function graph filter broke the

hold the entries.
The command line parameter ftrace_graph_max_depth was added to allow its

Merge tag 'trace-v4.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"There was some breakage with the changes for jump labels in the 4.11
merge window:
- powerpc broke as jump labels uses the two LSB bits as flags in
initialization.
A check was added to make sure that all jump label entries were 4
bytes aligned, but powerpc didn't work that way for modules. Adding
an alignment in the module linker script appeared to be the best
solution.
- Jump labels also added an anonymous union to access those LSB bits
as a normal long. But because this structure had static
initialization, it broke older compilers that could not statically
initialize anonymous unions without brackets.
- The command line parameter for setting function graph filter broke
the "EMPTY_HASH" descriptor by modifying it instead of creating a
new hash to hold the entries.
- The command line parameter ftrace_graph_max_depth was added to
allow its setting at boot time. It uses existing code and only the
command line hook was added.
This is not really a fix, but as it uses existing code without
affecting anything else, I added it to this release. It was ready
before the merge window closed, but I wanted to let it sit in
linux-next for a couple of days first"
* tag 'trace-v4.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
ftrace/graph: Add ftrace_graph_max_depth kernel parameter
tracing: Add #undef to fix compile error
jump_label: Add comment about initialization order for anonymous unions
jump_label: Fix anonymous union initialization
module: set __jump_table alignment to 8
ftrace/graph: Do not modify the EMPTY_HASH for the function_graph filter
tracing: Fix code comment for ftrace_ops_get_func()
Early trace callgraphs can be extremely large on systems with
several seconds of boot time. The max_depth parameter limits how
deep the graph trace goes and reduces the output size. This
parameter is the same as the max_graph_depth file in tracefs.

[ changed comments about debugfs to tracefs ]

On boot up, if the kernel command line sets a graph funtion with the kernel
command line options "ftrace_graph_filter" or "ftrace_graph_notrace" then it
updates the corresponding function graph hash, ftrace_graph_hash or
ftrace_graph_notrace_hash respectively. Unfortunately, at boot up, these
variables are pointers to the "EMPTY_HASH" which is a constant used as a
placeholder when a hash has no entities. The problem was that the comand
line version to set the hashes updated the actual EMPTY_HASH instead of
creating a new hash for the function graph. This broke the EMPTY_HASH
because not only did it modify a constant (not sure how that was allowed to
happen, except maybe because it was done at early boot, const variables were
still mutable), but it made the filters have functions listed in them when
they were actually empty.
The kernel command line function needs to allocate a new hash for the
function graph filters and assign the necessary variables to that new hash
instead.

We don't actually need the full rculist.h header in sched.h anymore,
we will be able to include the smaller rcupdate.h header instead.
But first update code that relied on the implicit header inclusion.

We are going to split <linux/sched/task_stack.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.
Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/task_stack.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.
Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.
