regex_match_full() calls strncmp(str, r->pattern, len) where len is the
target field buffer size. When len is smaller than r->len (the filter
pattern length), strncmp() checks only len bytes of r->pattern against
str. If those len bytes match, strncmp() returns 0, resulting in a
false-positive match where a shorter string in a fixed-size field
matches a longer filter pattern.
For example, a 4-byte static string field containing "abcd" matched the
filter pattern "abcdefgh" because strncmp("abcd", "abcdefgh", 4)
returned 0. In this case, @len does NOT include '\0' because it is
fixed-size array.
Fix this by returning 0 (no match) early when len < r->len.

trace_module_add_events() ignores the return value of __register_event()
and unconditionally calls __add_event_to_tracers() for each event.
If __register_event() fails (for example, if event_init() fails), the
trace_event_call is not added to ftrace_events list, but
__add_event_to_tracers() still creates a trace_event_file pointing to it.
If module loading subsequently fails and module memory is freed, tracing
state retains a stale trace_event_call pointer in trace_event_file,
leading to a use-after-free when tracefs or tracing subsystem operations
are later executed.
Fix this by checking the return value of __register_event() and only
calling __add_event_to_tracers() if event registration succeeded.

MAX_COMMON_HEAD_LEN (63) was used to allocate a temporary buffer for
formatting command heads in trace_kprobe_match_command_head() and
trace_uprobe_match_command_head(). However, the buffer size is too
short for some longer symbols. Especially, with rust code, the symbol
can be mangled and become very long.
Refactor trace_kprobe_match_command_head() to perform direct string
comparisons using strcmp() and strncmp(), eliminating the need for a
temporary buffer and removing the MAX_COMMON_HEAD_LEN string length
restriction on probe symbol names.
For trace_uprobe_match_command_head(), since tu->filename is already
matched via strncmp(), use a fixed 64-byte stack buffer solely for
formatting offset and ref_ctr_offset (which requires at most 39 bytes).
With all users converted, remove the MAX_COMMON_HEAD_LEN definition from

Currently on boot up and when modules are loaded, the trace event
infrastructure will examine the TP_printk's of every event looking to see
if it dereferences pointers on the ring buffer via printk formats like
"%pB" and such. What it doesn't do is check if the arguments themselves
do a dereference from a pointer.
This was brought with a fix[1] to the fsl_edma event that had in the
arguments of the TP_printk(): "__entry->edma->membase"
The __entry->edma is a pointer saved in the ring buffer. The dereference
from TP_printk() happens when the user reads the "trace" file which can be
seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, or even months later! There is no
guarantee that the __entry->edma pointer will still be pointing to what it
was when it was recorded, and could crash the kernel when a user reads the
event.
Add logic to the test_event_printk() that also checks for this case and
warn if the event dereferences a pointer from the ring buffer.

Move the increment of the counted by value before the array element is

- Propagate errors from remote event bulk updates
The return value of trace_remote_enable_event() was not being checked by
remote_events_dir_enable_write() where it would silently fail. Have it
check the return value and propagate that back up to user space.
- Fix resource leak on mmiotrace trace_pipe close
The mmiotrace tracer was created in 2008 before the trace_pipe had a close
callback to allow tracers to do clean up from trace_pipe open. The
trace_pipe close cleanup callback was added in 2009 but the mmiotrace
tracer was not updated. It had a hack to do the cleanup in the read call,
where it may leak if user space did not read the entire buffer.
Add a callback to mmiotrace trace_pipe close do to the cleanup properly.
- Fix a possible NULL pointer dereference in the mmiotrace tracer
If the mmio_pipe_open() fails to find a PCI device, it will set the
hiter->dev pointer to NULL. The read function will blindly dereference
that pointer. Fix the read call to check to see if that pointer is
populated before dereferencing it.
- Fix union collision of module and refcnt for dynamic events
In 'struct trace_event_call', the 'module' pointer and the 'refcnt' atomic
variable share the same memory space in a union. The filter on module
logic only checked if the 'module' was set to determine if the event
belonged to the module. As dynamic events are always builtin, it doesn't
need the 'module' field of the structure and used a refcount. But the
module filtering logic would then mistaken these dynamic events as a
module and call module_name(event->module) on it.
Add a check to see if the event is a dynamic event and if so, do not check
it for being part of the given module.
- Reset the top level buffer in selftests before running instances
The ftracetest selftest initializes each instance before executing the
tests. But it does not reset the top level buffer. Dynamic events are only
added and removed by the top level so any left over dynamic events will
not be removed by the reset in the instances.
Left over dynamic events can cause the tests to incorrectly fail. Reset
the top level buffer before running the instances.
- Make the context_switch counter 64 bit
The code to read user space for a system call trace event or for a
trace_marker will disable migration, enable preemption, read user space
into a per CPU buffer, disable preemption and enable migration again.
It checks if the per CPU context switch counter to see if it changed, and
if it did not, it would know that the per CPU buffer was not touched by
another task.
But the save counter was 32 bit and it would compare it to the 64 bit
context_switch variable. A long running system could have the
context_switch variable greater that 1<<32 in which case the compare will
always fail. The compare will promote the 32 bit int saved value to 64 bit
and compare it to the full 64 bit counter. Since the top 32 bits of the
saved value was zero, it would never match.
- Fix a use-after-free of the event_enable trigger
The event_enable trigger allows for enabling one event when another event
is triggered. When the trigger is removed, it must go through a
synchronization phase to make sure it is not triggered again. The trigger
itself is delayed by the "bulk delay" logic that was recently added.
But the code that frees the event_enable data used to rely on the trigger
code to do the synchronization. Now that the code uses the call RCU
functions (and a workqueue), that delay no longer is there.
Add a callback private_data_free() function that allows triggers to clean
up data after the synchronization phase has completed.
- Move the module_ref counter into the delay callback
Since an event of the event_enable trigger can enable an event for a
module, it ups the module ref count for that event's module. This prevents
the event from trying to enable an event that no longer exists and cause a
use-after-free bug.
The ref counter was set back down when the trigger was removed but not
after thy synchronization phase. This could lead to the module data being
accessed after module was unloaded.
Move the module ref decrement into the private_data_free() callback of the
event_enable trigger.
- Add mutex to protect parser in ftrace filtering
The set_ftrace_filter file uses a parsing descriptor that is allocated at
open and modified by writes. If multiple threads were to write to the
descriptor at the same time, it can corrupt the parser.
Add a mutex around the modifications of the parser descriptor.
- Fix possible corruption in perf syscall tracing
The perf system call trace events can now read user space. To do so, the
reads of user space enable preemption and disables it again. During this
time that preemption is enabled, the task can migrate. The perf event list
head is assigned via a per CPU pointer. It is done before the user space
part is called. If the user space reading migrates the task to another
CPU, then the head pointer is no longer valid.
Re-assign the head pointer after the reading of user space to keep it
using the correct data.

In ftrace, the trace_parser structure is allocated and initialized when
a trace file is opened, and is subsequently used across write and release
handlers to parse user input.
The affected handler paths and their specific functions are:
- Open paths: ftrace_regex_open(), ftrace_graph_open()
- Write paths: ftrace_regex_write(), ftrace_graph_write()
- Release paths: ftrace_regex_release(), ftrace_graph_release()
If userspace opens a trace file descriptor and shares it across multiple
threads, concurrent write calls will race on the parser's internal state,
specifically the 'idx', 'cont', and 'buffer' fields, leading to corrupted
input or undefined behavior.
Fix this by adding a global mutex, parser_lock, to serialize all access
to trace_parser across write and release paths, preventing concurrent
corruption of parser state.

Triggers are now delayed from freeing, but can still be triggered until
after the RCU grace period has ended. The freeing of the enable_event data
is put into the private_data_free() callback, but the put of the module
refcount is done immediately.
It is possible that if a module is removed that has an event that would
enable (or disable) it is still active, it can read the data of the module
after it is removed causing a use-after-free bug.
Move the trace_event_put_ref() that releases the module into the delayed
callback so that the module can not be removed until any reference to its
events are finished.

Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Commit 61d445af0a ("tracing: Add bulk garbage collection of freeing
event_trigger_data") moved the kfree() of event_trigger_data to a kthread
that runs tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() before freeing. That removed
the synchronization the trigger .free callbacks used to get implicitly and
inline from trigger_data_free().
event_hist_trigger_free(), event_hist_trigger_named_free() and
event_enable_trigger_free() free their satellite data (hist_data, cmd_ops,
enable_data) right after trigger_data_free() returns. With the
synchronization now deferred to the kthread, a concurrent tracepoint
handler can still reach that data through the list_del_rcu()'d trigger,
causing a use-after-free.
The histogram teardown must stay synchronous: remove_hist_vars() and
unregister_field_var_hists() have to detach a synthetic event from the
histogram before the trigger-removal write returns, otherwise a following
command races in and the synthetic-event removal fails with -EBUSY, as the
trigger-synthetic-eprobe.tc selftest catches. Make those callbacks wait
with the correct barrier - tracepoint_synchronize_unregister(), matching
the free kthread - before freeing.
The enable trigger has no such synchronous requirement, and a blocking
synchronize there would re-serialize the path that commit deliberately
deferred. Give it an optional private_data_free() callback that the free
kthread runs after its grace period, and free enable_data from there.

trace_user_fault_read() samples nr_context_switches_cpu() before enabling
preemption and retries the user copy if the counter changes. The helper
returns unsigned long long because rq->nr_switches is u64, but the saved
value is unsigned int.
Once a CPU has performed 2^32 context switches, assigning the counter to
cnt discards its upper bits. The comparison after the copy promotes cnt
back to unsigned long long, but the lost bits remain zero, so it reports a
change even when the task was never scheduled out. Every retry then fails
the same way until the 100-try guard warns and the user copy is abandoned.
This affects long-running systems and workloads with high context-switch
rates. A CPU switching 1,000 times per second takes about 50 days.
Store the sampled count in unsigned long long so the full value is
preserved.

In 'struct trace_event_call', the 'module' pointer and the 'refcnt'
atomic variable share the same memory space in a union. For dynamic
events, the union member is 'refcnt', which acts as an active
reference counter.
When a dynamic event (such as kprobe, uprobe, fprobe, eprobe, or
wprobe) has a non-zero reference count (e.g. due to active event
triggers or perf attachments), its 'call->module' evaluates to a
small non-zero integer instead of NULL.
When filtering or setting events for a specific module (e.g., writing
':mod:<module>' to 'set_event'), the code in
'__ftrace_set_clr_event_nolock()' and 'update_event_fields()' reads
'call->module' directly without checking whether the event is dynamic.
This causes the kernel to treat the small integer (refcnt) as a
'struct module' pointer, leading to a NULL/invalid pointer dereference
(Oops) when dereferencing the module name.
Fix this by ensuring that the 'TRACE_EVENT_FL_DYNAMIC' flag is checked
before treating 'call->module' as a valid pointer in these code paths.

Add a wakeup monitor to detect a lower-priority task waking up a
higher-priority task.
The rtapp/sleep monitor already detects this. However, that monitor
triggers an error in the context of the wakee task and user only gets
the stacktrace of that task. It is also extremely useful to get the
stacktrace of the waker task, which this monitor offers. In other
words, this monitor complements the rtapp/sleep monitor.

The rtapp/sleep monitor's primary purpose is detecting common mistakes
with user-space real-time design. Monitoring real-time issues with
kernel threads is a bonus.
However, accomodating kernel threads complicates the monitor due to
the edge cases which is seen by the monitor as lower-priority task
waking higher-priority task:
- kthread_stop() wakes up the task in order to stop it.
- The rcu thread and migration thread can be woken by any task.
- The ktimerd thread is woken near the end of irq_exit_rcu(), where
the preempt counter is "broken" and falsely says this is task
context. This requires the monitor to use the hardirq_context flag
instead of the preempt counter.
Beside complicating the monitor, the final case also requires enabling
CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS (so that "hardirq_context" can be used). This
adds overhead to the kernel even when the monitor is not active. This
may be an obstacle to enabling this monitor in distros' kernels.
Furthermore, kernel threads usually are started before the monitor is
enabled. Consequently, the threads' states (i.o.w. the monitor's
atomic propositions for the threads) are not fully known to the
monitor. As a result, the kernel threads mostly cannot be monitored.
Overall, the downsides of accomodating kernel threads outweights the
benefits. Thus, exclude kernel threads to simplify the monitor.

The rtapp/sleep monitor detects real-time tasks which go to sleep in an
real-time-unsafe manner. If this happen, the monitor triggers a trace event
in the sched_wakeup tracepoint's handler.
However, the invoking context of that trace event is not the most
informative, because of the stack trace of that event is the wakeup's code
path which is not very helpful:

What would be much more valuable is the stack trace of the task itself.
Instead of using the sched_wakeup tracepoint, use the sched_exit
tracepoint. This makes the event happen in the task's context, making
the stack trace far more informative for user:

The mmiotrace tracer was added May 12th 2008. At that time, resources
created in pipe_open() could not be freed because there was not
pipe_close function pointer of the tracer. The pipe_close function pointer
was added in December 7th, 2009, but the mmiotrace tracer was not updated.
mmio_pipe_open() allocates a header_iter and takes a pci_dev reference
when trace_pipe is opened. mmio_close() frees them, but it was only
wired to the tracer's .close callback.
tracing_release_pipe() invokes .pipe_close, not .close, when the
trace_pipe file is released. As a result, closing trace_pipe with the
mmiotrace tracer active leaked the header_iter allocation and left a
stale pci_dev reference.
Set .pipe_close to mmio_close, matching how function_graph wires both
callbacks to the same handler.
Note, if the trace_pipe is read to completion, it will clean up the
resources, but if one were to run:
# head -n 1 /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe
VERSION 20070824
Over and over again, it would trigger a massive leak.

page_va[] is annotated __counted_by(nr_page_va), so nr_page_va must
cover an index before that element is accessed. The allocation loop
writes page_va[id] while nr_page_va is still id and increments it only
afterwards, so every write is one element past the declared count.
The store is out of bounds with respect to the annotation: a build with
CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS on a toolchain that honours __counted_by
(clang >= 20.1, gcc >= 15.1) flags it as an array-index overflow.
Increment nr_page_va before writing the element it now covers. A failed
allocation then leaves the slot counted but NULL; the error path frees
it with free_page(0), which is a no-op.

Hybrid automata monitors's clock variables have two different
representations:
- The invariant representation, which is the timestamp when the invariant
expires
- The guard representation, which is the timestamp when the clock is last
reset
This dual representation makes the logic quite difficult to follow (well,
at least for me). It also complicates the monitors and the generation tool,
as it requires conversion back and forth between the representation.
Simplify by using the clock variables for a single purpose: storing the
time stamp since the clock is last reset.
This also allows simplifying rvgen, which will be done in a follow-up
commit.

To avoid potential stack overflows on limited kernel stacks, convert
parse_probe_arg() from a recursive function into a loop-based
implementation with a simple local state stack.
Since recursion is eliminated using a loop with a fixed-size
stack in the context, this restricts the dereference nesting
depth. The maximum nesting depth of dereferences is now restricted
to the same limit as typecasts (TRACEPROBE_MAX_NESTED_LEVEL, which
is 8) and reports the same TOO_MANY_NESTED error. Update ftrace
selftests to reflect this restriction and simplify the checks.
Note that this change slightly alters the behavior of nested
dereferencing in fetcharg. Previously, dereferencing without BTF
allowed for up to 14 levels of nesting, whereas dereferencing
with BTF was limited to 3 levels. With this change, the nesting
depth is now limited to 8 levels in both cases.

fp pointer and unsigned long have the same size on all relevant
architectures that build Linux. Furthermore this struct is only used in
architectures that do not set ARCH_DEFINE_ENCODE_FPROBE_HEADER which is
set only for 64bit architectures (apart from LoongArch).
Both fields are aligned on these architectures so the struct with
__packed and without it are the same.
Remove the __packed as it is unnecessary.

When tracing the kernel local variables, sometimes we need to get the
CPU local variables. To access it, current simple dereference is not
enough.
Thus, introduce a special this_cpu_read() dereference to access per-cpu
variable for the current CPU (accessing other CPU variable may race with
updates on other CPUs). Also this_cpu_ptr() is for accessing per-cpu
pointer.
Those are working as same as the kernel percpu macro.

Add a field specifier option for the typecast. This works like
container_of() macro.
(STRUCT[,FIELD[.FIELD2...]])VAR
This is equivalent to :
container_of(VAR, struct STRUCT, FIELD[.FIELD2...])
For example:
echo "f tick_nohz_handler next_tick=(tick_sched,sched_timer)timer->next_tick" >> dynamic_events
This will trace tick_nohz_handler() with its tick_sched::next_tick which
is converted from @timer by contianer_of(tick, struct tick_sched, sched_timer).
So, if you enabkle both fprobes:tick_nohz_handler__entry and
timer:hrtimer_expire_entry events, we will see something like:
<idle>-0 [002] d.h1. 3778.087272: hrtimer_expire_entry: hrtimer=00000000d63db328 f

This allows type casting to various fetchargs without parentheses
by recursively calling parse_probe_arg on the target when type
casting is used.
For example, this allows the following expressions:
- (STRUCT)%REG->FIELD
- (STRUCT)$stackN->FIELD
- (STRUCT)@SYM->FIELD
Note that @SYM+/-OFFSET with typecast needs parentheses like:
- (STRUCT)(@SYM-8)->FIELD

When we hit an open parenthesis right after typecast closing
parenthesis, it means we have nested typecast. This allows us to
typecast a generic data member in a structure to a pointer to
another structure.
For example, to cast a DATA_MEMBER of VAR structure to STRUCT pointer
and get MEMBER value.
(STRUCT)(VAR->DATA_MEMBER)->MEMBER
Also, we can nest typecast.
(STRUCT1)((STRUCT2)$ARG->FIELD2)->FIELD1
Currently the max nest level is limited to 3.
This also allows user to use typecasting for registers or stacks on
kprobe events. e.g.
(STRUCT)(%ax)->MEMBER
(STRUCT)($stack0)->MEMBER

Support BTF typecast feature on other probe events, but only if it is
kernel function entry or return, and must use function parameter name
or $retval. This means you can do:
(STRUCT)PARAM->MEMBER
Note: you can not use other variables like $stackN, %reg etc. That
needs nesting support.
To support other probe events, we just need to use last_struct type
when we find a function parameter in parse_btf_arg().
This also updates <tracefs>/README file to show struct typecast.

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 9764e731ef ("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 8928e4a3be ("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.

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)

...
# 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.

Pull probes fixes from Masami Hiramatsu:
"fprobe fixes and spelling typos:
- Fix NULL pointer dereference in fprobe_fgraph_entry(). Prevent
general protection faults by checking shadow-stack reservation
bounds. Skip mid-flight registered fprobes that were not counted
during sizing.
eprobe: fix string pointer extraction
- Correct the casting of string pointers read from the ringbuffer to
prevent truncation of base event pointer variables when
dereferencing FILTER_PTR_STRING fields.
tracing/probes: clean up argument parsing and BTF helper logic
- Make the $ prefix mandatory for comm access: Require the $ prefix
for special fetcharg variables like $comm and $COMM, preventing
naming conflicts with regular BTF-based event fields.
- Fix double addition of offset for @+FOFFSET: Clear the temporary
offset variable after setting the FETCH_OP_FOFFS instruction to
avoid applying the offset multiple times.
- Remove WARN_ON_ONCE from parse_btf_arg: Prevent triggering a kernel
warning via user-space input when creating a kprobe event on a raw
address.
- Fix typo in a log message: Correct a spelling error ("$-valiable")
in trace probe log messages.
samples/trace_events: improve error checking
- Validate the thread pointer returned from kthread_run() in the
trace events sample code to properly handle thread creation

fprobe_fgraph_entry() sizes a shadow-stack reservation in one walk of
the per-ip fprobe list and fills it in a second walk, both under
rcu_read_lock() only. A fprobe registered on an already-live ip can
become visible between the two walks, so the fill walk processes an
exit_handler the sizing walk did not count and used runs past
reserved_words. If the sizing walk counted nothing, fgraph_data is NULL
and the first write_fprobe_header() faults:
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address ...

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.

The problem is in get_event_field
val = (unsigned long)(*(char *)addr);
addr points to the position in the ringbuffer where the pointer was
stored. The assignment reads only the lowest byte of the pointer.
Fix the cast to read the whole pointer. The output of the test above

- 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.

- 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 called 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.

"Major changes:
- Recover from BPF arena page faults using a scratch page and add
ptep_try_set() for lockless empty-slot installs on x86 and arm64.
This allows BPF kfuncs to access arena pointers directly.
The 'arena_direct_access' stable branch was created for this work
and was pulled into sched-ext and bpf-next trees (Tejun Heo, Kumar
Kartikeya Dwivedi)
- Lift old restriction and support 6+ arguments in BPF programs and
kfuncs on x86 and arm64 (Yonghong Song, Puranjay Mohan)
Other features and fixes:

addition of new BTF kinds (Alan Maguire)
- Raise the maximum BPF call chain depth from 8 to 16 frames (Alexei
Starovoitov)
- Refactor object relationship tracking in the verifier and fix a
dynptr use-after-free bug (Amery Hung)
- Harden the signed program loader and reject exclusive maps as inner
maps (Daniel Borkmann)
- Replace the verifier min/max bounds fields with a circular number
(cnum) representation and improve 32->64 bit range refinements
(Eduard Zingerman)
- Introduce the arena library and runtime (libarena) with a buddy
allocator, rbtree and SPMC queue data structures, ASAN support and
a parallel test harness. Allow subprograms to return arena pointers
and switch to a BTF type-tag based __arena annotation (Emil
Tsalapatis)
- Cache build IDs in the sleepable stackmap path and avoid faultable
build ID reads under mm locks (Ihor Solodrai)
- Introduce the tracing_multi link to attach a single BPF program to
many kernel functions at once. Allow specifying the uprobe_multi
target via FD (Jiri Olsa)
- Extend the bpf_list family of kfuncs with bpf_list_add/del(), and
bpf_list_is_first/is_last/empty() (Kaitao Cheng)
- Extend the BPF syscall with common attributes support for
prog_load, btf_load and map_create (Leon Hwang)
- Wrap rhashtable as BPF map (Mykyta Yatsenko, Herbert Xu)
- Add sleepable support for tracepoint programs and fix deadlocks in
LRU map due to NMI reentry (Mykyta Yatsenko)
- Fix OOB access in bpf_flow_keys, fix nullness analysis of inner
arrays, enforce write checks for global subprograms (Nuoqi Gui)
- Report the maximum combined stack depth and print a breakdown of
instructions processed per subprogram (Paul Chaignon)
- Add an XDP load-balancer benchmark and arm64 JIT support for stack
arguments (Puranjay Mohan)
- Add kfuncs to traverse over wakeup_sources (Samuel Wu)
- Allow sleepable BPF programs to use LPM trie maps directly (Vlad
Poenaru)

SMP load-balancing updates:
- A large series to introduce infrastructure for cache-aware load

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.

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

ring buffer. When events are dropped in the normal ring buffer, that
information is stored in the cpu_buffer descriptor and the
RB_MISSED_EVENTS is set in the buffer page at the time the page is
consumed. It is never set in the writeable portion of the buffer.
Add comments to describe this better as it can be confusing to know when
the RB_MISSED_EVENTS are set in the commit portion of the buffer page.

Fix to point the error offset correctly for eprobe argument error.
In the cleanup commit 1b8b0cd754 ("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.

perf_ftrace_function_unregister() unconditionally calls
unregister_ftrace_function() without checking whether the ftrace_ops
was ever successfully registered. This triggers a WARN_ON in
__unregister_ftrace_function() when the ops doesn't have
FTRACE_OPS_FL_ENABLED set.
This can happen during perf_event_alloc() error cleanup when
perf_trace_destroy() is called via __free_event() on an event whose
ftrace_ops registration failed or was already torn down by
perf_try_init_event()'s err_destroy path.
The call path is:
perf_event_alloc() error cleanup
-> __free_event()
-> event->destroy() [tp_perf_event_destroy]
-> perf_trace_destroy()
-> perf_trace_event_close()
-> TRACE_REG_PERF_CLOSE
-> perf_ftrace_function_unregister()
-> unregister_ftrace_function()
-> __unregister_ftrace_function()
-> WARN_ON(!(ops->flags & FTRACE_OPS_FL_ENABLED))
Fix this by checking FTRACE_OPS_FL_ENABLED before attempting to
unregister. If the ops is not enabled, just free the filter and
return success.

When KCOV runs its boot selftest with whole-kernel instrumentation
enabled, it sets current->kcov_mode to KCOV_MODE_TRACE_PC without
installing a coverage area. Any instrumented code accepted as task-context
coverage in that window dereferences current->kcov_area and crashes.
On ARMv5 Versatile PB with CONFIG_KCOV_SELFTEST=y,
CONFIG_KCOV_INSTRUMENT_ALL=y and CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER=y, boot hits a
NULL pointer fault during the selftest:
kcov: running self test
Internal error: Oops: 5 [#1] ARM
PC is at __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc+0x4c/0x90
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
A diagnostic run showed the unwanted coverage comes from the IRQs-off
tracer callbacks reached from ARM IRQ entry before hardirq context is
visible to KCOV:
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc from tracer_hardirqs_off+0x18/0x1cc

trace_hardirqs_off from __irq_svc+0x58/0xb0
__irq_svc from kcov_init+0x7c/0xdc
and similarly through tracer_hardirqs_on().
trace_preemptirq.o is already excluded because this tracing path can run
from early interrupt code and produce coverage unrelated to syscall
inputs. Exclude trace_irqsoff.o as well, instead of requiring users to
turn off CONFIG_KCOV_INSTRUMENT_ALL=y, which is the default whole-kernel
KCOV mode.
With the exclusion in place, the same ARMv5 Versatile PB QEMU test boots
through the KCOV selftest and reaches userspace.

The field_var_str array was allocated separately via kcalloc() with its
length already known at elt_data allocation time. Convert it to a
flexible array member and fold the two allocations into a single
kzalloc_flex(), reordering hist_trigger_elt_data_alloc() so n_str is
computed and bounds-checked before the struct allocation.
hist_elt_data is only reached through tracing_map_elt::private_data
(a void *), never embedded, so adding a FAM imposes no tail-position
constraint on any enclosing struct.

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.

When the persistent ring buffer detects a corrupted subbuffer, it will
zero its size and report dropped pages in the dmesg, then it continues
normally.
But if a reboot happens without clearing or restarting tracing on the
persistent ring buffer, the next boot will show no pages are dropped.
If the persistent ring buffer is still the same, then it should still
report dropped pages so the user knows that the buffer has missing events.
Add the RB_MISSED_EVENTS flag to the commit value of the subbuffer so that
the next boot will still show that pages were dropped.

Add a self-corrupting test for the persistent ring buffer.
This will inject an erroneous value to some sub-buffer pages (where
the index is even or multiples of 5) in the persistent ring buffer
when the kernel panics, and checks whether the number of detected
invalid pages and the total entry_bytes are the same as the recorded
values after reboot.
This ensures that the kernel can correctly recover a partially
corrupted persistent ring buffer after a reboot or panic.
The test only runs on the persistent ring buffer whose name is
"ptracingtest". The user has to fill it with events before a
kernel panic.
To run the test, enable CONFIG_RING_BUFFER_PERSISTENT_INJECT
and add the following kernel cmdline:
reserve_mem=20M:2M:trace trace_instance=ptracingtest^traceoff@trace
panic=1
Run the following commands after the 1st boot:
cd /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/ptracingtest
echo 1 > tracing_on
echo 1 > events/enable
sleep 3
echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
After panic message, the kernel will reboot and run the verification
on the persistent ring buffer, e.g.
Ring buffer meta [2] invalid buffer page detected
Ring buffer meta [2] is from previous boot! (318 pages discarded)
Ring buffer testing [2] invalid pages: PASSED (318/318)
Ring buffer testing [2] entry_bytes: PASSED (1300476/1300476)

Build both strings with seq_buf and propagate -E2BIG if either the
