<content type='text'>
Now that some trace events can be protected by srcu_read_lock(tracepoint_srcu),
we need to make sure all locations that depend on this are also protected.
There were many places that did a synchronize_sched() thinking that it was
enough to protect againts access to trace events. This use to be the case,
but now that we use SRCU for _rcuidle() trace events, they may not be
protected by synchronize_sched(), as they may be called in paths that RCU is
not watching for preempt disable.

<title>trace: Use rcu_dereference_raw for hooks from trace-event subsystem</title>

<id>urn:sha1:da25a672cf0e2c143bffb40acb507a342e25b4f4</id>
<content type='text'>
Since we switched to using SRCU for tracepoints used in the idle path,
we can no longer use rcu_dereference_sched for dereferencing points in
trace-event hooks.

Since tracepoints can now use either SRCU or sched-RCU, just use
rcu_dereference_raw for traceevents just like we're doing when
dereferencing the tracepoint table.

This prevents an RCU warning reported by Masami:

<title>tracing: Do not show filter file for ftrace internal events</title>

<content type='text'>
The filter file in the ftrace internal events, like in
/sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/function/filter is not attached to any
functionality. Do not create them as they are meaningless.

In the future, if an ftrace internal event gets filter functionality, then
it will need to create it directly.

<content type='text'>
Instead of having both trace_init_tracefs() and event_trace_init() be called
by fs_initcall() routines, have event_trace_init() called directly by
trace_init_tracefs(). This will guarantee order of how the events are
created with respect to the rest of the ftrace infrastructure. This is
needed to be able to assoctiate event files with ftrace internal events,
such as the trace_marker.

<title>tracing: Add __find_event_file() to find event files without restrictions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3c96529c0739959e2aa235d44e47f5c68c1e40de</id>
<content type='text'>
By adding the function __find_event_file() that can search for files without
restrictions, such as if the event associated with the file has a reg
function, or if it has the "ignore" flag set, the files that are associated
to ftrace internal events (like trace_marker and function events) can be
found and used.

find_event_file() still returns a "filtered" file, as most callers need a
valid trace event file. One created by the trace_events.h macros and not one
created for parsing ftrace specific events.

Always mark the parsed string with a terminated nul '\0' character. This removes
the need for the users to have to append the '\0' before using the parsed string.

<title>tracing: Fix converting enum's from the map in trace_event_eval_update()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1ebe1eaf2f02784921759992ae1fde1a9bec8fd0</id>
<content type='text'>
Since enums do not get converted by the TRACE_EVENT macro into their values,
the event format displaces the enum name and not the value. This breaks
tools like perf and trace-cmd that need to interpret the raw binary data. To
solve this, an enum map was created to convert these enums into their actual
numbers on boot up. This is done by TRACE_EVENTS() adding a
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro.

Some enums were not being converted. This was caused by an optization that
had a bug in it.

All calls get checked against this enum map to see if it should be converted
or not, and it compares the call's system to the system that the enum map
was created under. If they match, then they call is processed.

To cut down on the number of iterations needed to find the maps with a
matching system, since calls and maps are grouped by system, when a match is
made, the index into the map array is saved, so that the next call, if it
belongs to the same system as the previous call, could start right at that
array index and not have to scan all the previous arrays.

The problem was, the saved index was used as the variable to know if this is
a call in a new system or not. If the index was zero, it was assumed that
the call is in a new system and would keep incrementing the saved index
until it found a matching system. The issue arises when the first matching
system was at index zero. The next map, if it belonged to the same system,
would then think it was the first match and increment the index to one. If
the next call belong to the same system, it would begin its search of the
maps off by one, and miss the first enum that should be converted. This left
a single enum not converted properly.

Also add a comment to describe exactly what that index was for. It took me a
bit too long to figure out what I was thinking when debugging this issue.

In order to make future changes where we need to call
tracing_set_clock() from within an event command, the order of
trace_types_lock and event_mutex must be reversed, as the event command
will hold event_mutex and the trace_types_lock is taken from within
tracing_set_clock().
