Pull more tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Two fixes and one patch that was missed: Fixes: - Missing __print_hex_dump undef for processing new function in trace events - Stop WARN_ON messages when lockdown disables tracing on boot up Enhancement: - Debug option to inject trace events from userspace (for rasdaemon)" The enhancement has its own config option and is non invasive. It's been discussed for sever months and should have been added to my original push, but I never pulled it into my queue. * tag 'trace-v5.5-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Do not create directories if lockdown is in affect tracing: Introduce trace event injection tracing: Fix __print_hex_dump scope

tracing: Introduce trace event injection

2019-12-02T16:07:00Z

We have been trying to use rasdaemon to monitor hardware errors like correctable memory errors. rasdaemon uses trace events to monitor various hardware errors. In order to test it, we have to inject some hardware errors, unfortunately not all of them provide error injections. MCE does provide a way to inject MCE errors, but errors like PCI error and devlink error don't, it is not easy to add error injection to each of them. Instead, it is relatively easier to just allow users to inject trace events in a generic way so that all trace events can be injected. This patch introduces trace event injection, where a new 'inject' is added to each tracepoint directory. Users could write into this file with key=value pairs to specify the value of each fields of the trace event, all unspecified fields are set to zero values by default. For example, for the net/net_dev_queue tracepoint, we can inject: INJECT=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/inject echo "" > $INJECT echo "name='test'" > $INJECT echo "name='test' len=1024" > $INJECT cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace ... <...>-614 [000] .... 36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 <...>-614 [001] .... 136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 <...>-614 [001] .N.. 208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024 Triggers could be triggered as usual too: echo "stacktrace if len == 1025" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/trigger echo "len=1025" > $INJECT cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace ... bash-614 [000] .... 36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 bash-614 [001] .... 136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 bash-614 [001] .N.. 208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024 bash-614 [001] .N.1 284.236349: => event_inject_write => vfs_write => ksys_write => do_syscall_64 => entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe The only thing that can't be injected is string pointers as they require constant string pointers, this can't be done at run time.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "New tracing features: - New PERMANENT flag to ftrace_ops when attaching a callback to a function. As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable all attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on live kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a ftrace_ops is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it will prevent ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if ftrace_enabled is already disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops with PREMANENT flag set from being registered. - New register_ftrace_direct(). As eBPF would like to register its own trampolines to be called by the ftrace nop locations directly, without going through the ftrace trampoline, this function has been added. This allows for eBPF trampolines to live along side of ftrace, perf, kprobe and live patching. It also utilizes the ftrace enabled_functions file that keeps track of functions that have been modified in the kernel, to allow for security auditing. - Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances. Subsystems in the kernel can now create and destroy their own tracing instances which allows them to have their own tracing buffer, and be able to record events without worrying about other users from writing over their data. - New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their seq_buf usage. - Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency tracers. - Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch and friends. - More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16) - Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the system call trace events.

preemptirq_delay_test: Add the burst feature and a sysfs trigger

2019-11-13T14:37:28Z

This burst feature enables the user to generate a burst of preempt/irqsoff latencies. This makes it possible to test whether we are able to detect latencies that systematically occur very close to each other. The maximum burst size is 10. We also create 10 identical test functions, so that we get 10 different backtraces; this is useful when we want to test whether we can detect all the latencies in a burst. Otherwise, there would be no easy way of differentiating between which latency in a burst was captured by the tracer. In addition, there is a sysfs trigger, so that it's not necessary to reload the module to repeat the test. The trigger will appear as /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger in sysfs.

ftrace: Add register_ftrace_direct()

2019-11-13T14:36:41Z

Add the start of the functionality to allow other trampolines to use the ftrace mcount/fentry/nop location. This adds two new functions: register_ftrace_direct() and unregister_ftrace_direct() Both take two parameters: the first is the instruction address of where the mcount/fentry/nop exists, and the second is the trampoline to have that location called. This will handle cases where ftrace is already used on that same location, and will make it still work, where the registered direct called trampoline will get called after all the registered ftrace callers are handled. Currently, it will not allow for IP_MODIFY functions to be called at the same locations, which include some kprobes and live kernel patching. At this point, no architecture supports this. This is only the start of implementing the framework. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware)
