eventfs: Remove eventfs_file and just use eventfs_inode

eventfs: Remove eventfs_file and just use eventfs_inode
commit 5790b1fb3d672d9a1fe3881a7181dfdbe741568f upstream.
Instead of having a descriptor for every file represented in the eventfs directory, only have the directory itself represented. Change the API to send in a list of entries that represent all the files in the directory (but not other directories). The entry list contains a name and a callback function that will be used to create the files when they are accessed.
struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_events_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent, const struct eventfs_entry *entries, int size, void *data);
is used for the top level eventfs directory, and returns an eventfs_inode that will be used by:
struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct eventfs_inode *parent, const struct eventfs_entry *entries, int size, void *data);
where both of the above take an array of struct eventfs_entry entries for every file that is in the directory.
The entries are defined by:
typedef int (*eventfs_callback)(const char *name, umode_t *mode, void **data, const struct file_operations **fops);
struct eventfs_entry { const char *name; eventfs_callback callback; };
Where the name is the name of the file and the callback gets called when the file is being created. The callback passes in the name (in case the same callback is used for multiple files), a pointer to the mode, data and fops. The data will be pointing to the data that was passed in eventfs_create_dir() or eventfs_create_events_dir() but may be overridden to point to something else, as it will be used to point to the inode->i_private that is created. The information passed back from the callback is used to create the dentry/inode.
If the callback fills the data and the file should be created, it must return a positive number. On zero or negative, the file is ignored.
This logic may also be used as a prototype to convert entire pseudo file systems into just-in-time allocation.
The "show_events_dentry" file has been updated to show the directories, and any files they have.
With just the eventfs_file allocations:

tracing: Fix uaf issue when open the hist or hist_debug file
[ Upstream commit 1cc111b9cddc71ce161cd388f11f0e9048edffdb ]
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.

tracing: Have trace_event_file have ref counters
commit bb32500fb9b78215e4ef6ee8b4345c5f5d7eafb4 upstream
The following can crash the kernel:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing # echo 'p:sched schedule' > kprobe_events # exec 5>>events/kprobes/sched/enable # > kprobe_events # exec 5>&-
The above commands:
1. Change directory to the tracefs directory 2. Create a kprobe event (doesn't matter what one) 3. Open bash file descriptor 5 on the enable file of the kprobe event 4. Delete the kprobe event (removes the files too) 5. Close the bash file descriptor 5
The above causes a crash!
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000028 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI CPU: 6 PID: 877 Comm: bash Not tainted 6.5.0-rc4-test-00008-g2c6b6b1029d4-dirty #186 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.2-debian-1.16.2-1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:tracing_release_file_tr+0xc/0x50
What happens here is that the kprobe event creates a trace_event_file "file" descriptor that represents the file in tracefs to the event. It maintains state of the event (is it enabled for the given instance?). Opening the "enable" file gets a reference to the event "file" descriptor via the open file descriptor. When the kprobe event is deleted, the file is also deleted from the tracefs system which also frees the event "file" descriptor.
But as the tracefs file is still opened by user space, it will not be totally removed until the final dput() is called on it. But this is not true with the event "file" descriptor that is already freed. If the user does a write to or simply closes the file descriptor it will reference the event "file" descriptor that was just freed, causing a use-after-free bug.
To solve this, add a ref count to the event "file" descriptor as well as a new flag called "FREED". The "file" will not be freed until the last reference is released. But the FREE flag will be set when the event is removed to prevent any more modifications to that event from happening, even if there's still a reference to the event "file" descriptor.

tracing: Introduce pipe_cpumask to avoid race on trace_pipes
There is race issue when concurrently splice_read main trace_pipe and per_cpu trace_pipes which will result in data read out being different from what actually writen.
As suggested by Steven: > I believe we should add a ref count to trace_pipe and the per_cpu > trace_pipes, where if they are opened, nothing else can read it. > > Opening trace_pipe locks all per_cpu ref counts, if any of them are > open, then the trace_pipe open will fail (and releases any ref counts > it had taken). > > Opening a per_cpu trace_pipe will up the ref count for just that > CPU buffer. This will allow multiple tasks to read different per_cpu > trace_pipe files, but will prevent the main trace_pipe file from > being opened.
But because we only need to know whether per_cpu trace_pipe is open or not, using a cpumask instead of using ref count may be easier.
After this patch, users will find that: - Main trace_pipe can be opened by only one user, and if it is opened, all per_cpu trace_pipes cannot be opened; - Per_cpu trace_pipes can be opened by multiple users, but each per_cpu trace_pipe can only be opened by one user. And if one of them is opened, main trace_pipe cannot be opened.

eventfs: Move tracing/events to eventfs
Up until now, /sys/kernel/tracing/events was no different than any other part of tracefs. The files and directories within the events directory was created when the tracefs was mounted, and also created for the instances in /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/<instance>/events. Most of these files and directories will never be referenced. Since there are thousands of these files and directories they spend their time wasting precious memory resources.
Move the "events" directory to the new eventfs. The eventfs will take the meta data of the events that they represent and store that. When the files in the events directory are referenced, the dentry and inodes to represent them are then created. When the files are no longer referenced, they are freed. This saves the precious memory resources that were wasted on these seldom referenced dentries and inodes.
Running the following:
~# cat /proc/meminfo /proc/slabinfo > before.out ~# mkdir /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/foo ~# cat /proc/meminfo /proc/slabinfo > after.out

tracing: Add back FORTIFY_SOURCE logic to kernel_stack event structure
For backward compatibility, older tooling expects to see the kernel_stack event with a "caller" field that is a fixed size array of 8 addresses. The code now supports more than 8 with an added "size" field that states the real number of entries. But the "caller" field still just looks like a fixed size to user space.
Since the tracing macros that create the user space format files also creates the structures that those files represent, the kernel_stack event structure had its "caller" field a fixed size of 8, but in reality, when it is allocated on the ring buffer, it can hold more if the stack trace is bigger that 8 functions. The copying of these entries was simply done with a memcpy():
size = nr_entries * sizeof(unsigned long); memcpy(entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);
The FORTIFY_SOURCE logic noticed at runtime that when the nr_entries was larger than 8, that the memcpy() was writing more than what the structure stated it can hold and it complained about it. This is because the FORTIFY_SOURCE code is unaware that the amount allocated is actually enough to hold the size. It does not expect that a fixed size field will hold more than the fixed size.
This was originally solved by hiding the caller assignment with some pointer arithmetic.
ptr = ring_buffer_data(); entry = ptr;
ptr += offsetof(typeof(*entry), caller); memcpy(ptr, fstack->calls, size);
But it is considered bad form to hide from kernel hardening. Instead, make it work nicely with FORTIFY_SOURCE by adding a new __stack_array() macro that is specific for this one special use case. The macro will take 4 arguments: type, item, len, field (whereas the __array() macro takes just the first three). This macro will act just like the __array() macro when creating the code to deal with the format file that is exposed to user space. But for the kernel, it will turn the caller field into:
type item[] __counted_by(field);
or for this instance:
unsigned long caller[] __counted_by(size);
Now the kernel code can expose the assignment of the caller to the FORTIFY_SOURCE and everyone is happy!

Revert "tracing: Add "(fault)" name injection to kernel probes"
This reverts commit 2e9906f84fc7c99388bb7123ade167250d50f1c0.
It was turned out that commit 2e9906f84fc7 ("tracing: Add "(fault)" name injection to kernel probes") did not work correctly and probe events still show just '(fault)' (instead of '"(fault)"'). Also, current '(fault)' is more explicit that it faulted.
This also moves FAULT_STRING macro to trace.h so that synthetic event can keep using it, and uses it in trace_probe.c too.

function_graph: Support recording and printing the return value of function
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.

tracing/probes: Add fprobe events for tracing function entry and exit.
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 # TASK-PID CPU# ||||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | ||||| | | sh-142 [005] ...1. 448.386420: vfs_read__entry: (vfs_read+0x4/0x340) arg1=0xffff888007f7c540 sh-142 [005] ..... 448.386436: vfs_read__exit: (ksys_read+0x75/0x100 <- vfs_read) arg1=0x1 sh-142 [005] ...1. 448.386451: vfs_read__entry: (vfs_read+0x4/0x340) arg1=0xffff888007f7c540 sh-142 [005] ..... 448.386458: vfs_read__exit: (ksys_read+0x75/0x100 <- vfs_read) arg1=0x1 sh-142 [005] ...1. 448.386469: vfs_read__entry: (vfs_read+0x4/0x340) arg1=0xffff888007f7c540 sh-142 [005] ..... 448.386476: vfs_read__exit: (ksys_read+0x75/0x100 <- vfs_read) arg1=0x1 sh-142 [005] ...1. 448.602073: vfs_read__entry: (vfs_read+0x4/0x340) arg1=0xffff888007f7c540 sh-142 [005] ..... 448.602089: vfs_read__exit: (ksys_read+0x75/0x100 <- vfs_read) arg1=0x1

tracing: Add "fields" option to show raw trace event fields
The hex, raw and bin formats come from the old PREEMPT_RT patch set latency tracer. That actually gave real alternatives to reading the ascii buffer. But they have started to bit rot and they do not give a good representation of the tracing data.
Add "fields" option that will read the trace event fields and parse the data from how the fields are defined:

It traces the data safely without using the trace print formatting.

tracing: Fix TASK_COMM_LEN in trace event format file
After commit 3087c61ed2c4 ("tools/testing/selftests/bpf: replace open-coded 16 with TASK_COMM_LEN"), the content of the format file under /sys/kernel/tracing/events/task/task_newtask was changed from field:char comm[16]; offset:12; size:16; signed:0; to field:char comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16; signed:0;
John reported that this change breaks older versions of perfetto. Then Mathieu pointed out that this behavioral change was caused by the use of __stringify(_len), which happens to work on macros, but not on enum labels. And he also gave the suggestion on how to fix it: :One possible solution to make this more robust would be to extend :struct trace_event_fields with one more field that indicates the length :of an array as an actual integer, without storing it in its stringified :form in the type, and do the formatting in f_show where it belongs.
The result as follows after this change, $ cat /sys/kernel/tracing/events/task/task_newtask/format field:char comm[16]; offset:12; size:16; signed:0;

tracing: Allow synthetic events to pass around stacktraces
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.

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.

tracing: Make sure trace_printk() can output as soon as it can be used
Currently trace_printk() can be used as soon as early_trace_init() is called from start_kernel(). But if a crash happens, and "ftrace_dump_on_oops" is set on the kernel command line, all you get will be:
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 347519us : Unknown type 6 [ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 353141us : Unknown type 6 [ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 358684us : Unknown type 6
This is because the trace_printk() event (type 6) hasn't been registered yet. That gets done via an early_initcall(), which may be early, but not early enough.
Instead of registering the trace_printk() event (and other ftrace events, which are not trace events) via an early_initcall(), have them registered at the same time that trace_printk() can be used. This way, if there is a crash before early_initcall(), then the trace_printk()s will actually be useful.

tracing: Fix complicated dependency of CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE
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.

tracing/probes: Handle system names with hyphens
When creating probe names, a check is done to make sure it matches basic C standard variable naming standards. Basically, starts with alphabetic or underline, and then the rest of the characters have alpha-numeric or underline in them.
But system names do not have any true naming conventions, as they are created by the TRACE_SYSTEM macro and nothing tests to see what they are. The "xhci-hcd" trace events has a '-' in the system name. When trying to attach a eprobe to one of these trace points, it fails because the system name does not follow the variable naming convention because of the hyphen, and the eprobe checks fail on this.
Allow hyphens in the system name so that eprobes can attach to the "xhci-hcd" trace events.

tracing: Add tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() function
Currently the tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() requires the trace_types_lock held. But only one caller of this function actually has that lock held before calling it, and the other just takes the lock so that it can call it. More users of this function is needed where the lock is not held.
Add a tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() function for the one use case that calls it without being held, and also add a lockdep_assert to make sure it is held when called.
Then have tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() take the lock internally, such that callers do not need to worry about taking it.

rv: Add Runtime Verification (RV) interface
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
For further information, see the comments in the header of kernel/trace/rv/rv.c from this patch.
