2022-12-10tracing: remove unnecessary trace_trigger ifdefRoss Zwisler1-6/+0
The trace_trigger command line option introduced by commit a01fdc897fa5 ("tracing: Add trace_trigger kernel command line option") doesn't need to depend on the CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS kernel config option. This code doesn't depend on the histogram code, and the run-time selection of triggers is usable without CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS.

2022-11-23tracing: Add trace_trigger kernel command line optionSteven Rostedt (Google)1-2/+70
Allow triggers to be enabled at kernel boot up. For example: trace_trigger="sched_switch.stacktrace if prev_state == 2" The above will enable the stacktrace trigger on top of the sched_switch event and only trigger if its prev_state is 2 (TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE). Then at boot up, a stacktrace will trigger and be recorded in the tracing ring buffer every time the sched_switch happens where the previous state is TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. Another useful trigger would be "traceoff" which can stop tracing on an event if a field of the event matches a certain value defined by the filter ("if" statement).

2022-11-23tracing: Free buffers when a used dynamic event is removedSteven Rostedt (Google)1-1/+10
After 65536 dynamic events have been added and removed, the "type" field of the event then uses the first type number that is available (not currently used by other events). A type number is the identifier of the binary blobs in the tracing ring buffer (known as events) to map them to logic that can parse the binary blob. The issue is that if a dynamic event (like a kprobe event) is traced and is in the ring buffer, and then that event is removed (because it is dynamic, which means it can be created and destroyed), if another dynamic event is created that has the same number that new event's logic on parsing the binary blob will be used. To show how this can be an issue, the following can crash the kernel: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # for i in `seq 65536`; do echo 'p:kprobes/foo do_sys_openat2 $arg1:u32' > kprobe_events # done For every iteration of the above, the writing to the kprobe_events will remove the old event and create a new one (with the same format) and increase the type number to the next available on until the type number reaches over 65535 which is the max number for the 16 bit type. After it reaches that number, the logic to allocate a new number simply looks for the next available number. When an dynamic event is removed, that number is then available to be reused by the next dynamic event created. That is, once the above reaches the max number, the number assigned to the event in that loop will remain the same. Now that means deleting one dynamic event and created another will reuse the previous events type number. This is where bad things can happen. After the above loop finishes, the kprobes/foo event which reads the do_sys_openat2 function call's first parameter as an integer. # echo 1 > kprobes/foo/enable # cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null # cat trace cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849603: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849620: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849838: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849880: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 # echo 0 > kprobes/foo/enable Now if we delete the kprobe and create a new one that reads a string: # echo 'p:kprobes/foo do_sys_openat2 +0($arg2):string' > kprobe_events And now we can the trace: # cat trace sendmail-1942 [002] ..... 530.136320: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1= cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.930817: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.930961: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.934278: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.934563: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" bash-1515 [007] ..... 534.299093: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk���������@��4Z����;Y�����U And dmesg has: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in string+0xd4/0x1c0 Read of size 1 at addr ffff88805fdbbfa0 by task cat/2049 CPU: 0 PID: 2049 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.1.0-rc6-test+ #641 Hardware name: Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF/339A, BIOS K01 v03.03 07/14/2016 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x5b/0x77 print_report+0x17f/0x47b kasan_report+0xad/0x130 string+0xd4/0x1c0 vsnprintf+0x500/0x840 seq_buf_vprintf+0x62/0xc0 trace_seq_printf+0x10e/0x1e0 print_type_string+0x90/0xa0 print_kprobe_event+0x16b/0x290 print_trace_line+0x451/0x8e0 s_show+0x72/0x1f0 seq_read_iter+0x58e/0x750 seq_read+0x115/0x160 vfs_read+0x11d/0x460 ksys_read+0xa9/0x130 do_syscall_64+0x3a/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd RIP: 0033:0x7fc2e972ade2 Code: c0 e9 b2 fe ff ff 50 48 8d 3d b2 3f 0a 00 e8 05 f0 01 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 f3 0f 1e fa 64 8b 04 25 18 00 00 00 85 c0 75 10 0f 05 <48> 3d 00 f0 ff ff 77 56 c3 0f 1f 44 00 00 48 83 ec 28 48 89 54 24 RSP: 002b:00007ffc64e687c8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000000 RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000000000020000 RCX: 00007fc2e972ade2 RDX: 0000000000020000 RSI: 00007fc2e980d000 RDI: 0000000000000003 RBP: 00007fc2e980d000 R08: 00007fc2e980c010 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000022 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000000000020f00 R13: 0000000000000003 R14: 0000000000020000 R15: 0000000000020000 </TASK> The buggy address belongs to the physical page: page:ffffea00017f6ec0 refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x5fdbb flags: 0xfffffc0000000(node=0|zone=1|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) raw: 000fffffc0000000 0000000000000000 ffffea00017f6ec8 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected Memory state around the buggy address: ffff88805fdbbe80: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff88805fdbbf00: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff >ffff88805fdbbf80: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ^ ffff88805fdbc000: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff88805fdbc080: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ================================================================== This was found when Zheng Yejian sent a patch to convert the event type number assignment to use IDA, which gives the next available number, and this bug showed up in the fuzz testing by Yujie Liu and the kernel test robot. But after further analysis, I found that this behavior is the same as when the event type numbers go past the 16bit max (and the above shows that). As modules have a similar issue, but is dealt with by setting a "WAS_ENABLED" flag when a module event is enabled, and when the module is freed, if any of its events were enabled, the ring buffer that holds that event is also cleared, to prevent reading stale events. The same can be done for dynamic events. If any dynamic event that is being removed was enabled, then make sure the buffers they were enabled in are now cleared.

2022-11-23tracing: Add tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() functionSteven Rostedt (Google)1-1/+1
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.

Commit fa2c3254d7cf (sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting sched_switch event, 2022-01-20) added a new prev_state argument to the sched_switch tracepoint, before the prev task_struct pointer. This reordering of arguments broke BPF programs that use the raw tracepoint (e.g. tp_btf programs). The type of the second argument has changed and existing programs that assume a task_struct* argument (e.g. for bpf_task_storage access) will now fail to verify. If we instead append the new argument to the end, all existing programs would continue to work and can conditionally extract the prev_state argument on supported kernel versions.

When list_for_each_entry() completes the iteration over the whole list without breaking the loop, the iterator value will be a bogus pointer computed based on the head element. While it is safe to use the pointer to determine if it was computed based on the head element, either with list_entry_is_head() or &pos->member == head, using the iterator variable after the loop should be avoided. In preparation to limit the scope of a list iterator to the list traversal loop, use a dedicated pointer to point to the found element [1].

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task can then enable that event like any other event, which will change the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start writing the event to the tracing buffer. - Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot up has tracing as well. - Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum, the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that array. - Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports. - Fixes to tracing error logging. - Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events for mapping). * tag 'trace-v5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (30 commits) tracing: Have type enum modifications copy the strings user_events: Add trace event call as root for low permission cases tracing/user_events: Use alloc_pages instead of kzalloc() for register pages tracing: Add snapshot at end of kernel boot up tracing: Have TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM affect trace event types as well tracing: Fix strncpy warning in trace_events_synth.c user_events: Prevent dyn_event delete racing with ioctl add/delete tracing: Add TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro tracing: Move the defines to create TRACE_EVENTS into their own files tracing: Add sample code for custom trace events tracing: Allow custom events to be added to the tracefs directory tracing: Fix last_cmd_set() string management in histogram code user_events: Fix potential uninitialized pointer while parsing field tracing: Fix allocation of last_cmd in last_cmd_set() user_events: Add documentation file user_events: Add sample code for typical usage user_events: Add self-test for validator boundaries user_events: Add self-test for perf_event integration user_events: Add self-test for dynamic_events integration user_events: Add self-test for ftrace integration ...

2022-03-20tracing: Have type enum modifications copy the stringsSteven Rostedt (Google)1-1/+61
When an enum is used in the visible parts of a trace event that is exported to user space, the user space applications like perf and trace-cmd do not have a way to know what the value of the enum is. To solve this, at boot up (or module load) the printk formats are modified to replace the enum with their numeric value in the string output. Array fields of the event are defined by [<nr-elements>] in the type portion of the format file so that the user space parsers can correctly parse the array into the appropriate size chunks. But in some trace events, an enum is used in defining the size of the array, which once again breaks the parsing of user space tooling. This was solved the same way as the print formats were, but it modified the type strings of the trace event. This caused crashes in some architectures because, as supposed to the print string, is a const string value. This was not detected on x86, as it appears that const strings are still writable (at least in boot up), but other architectures this is not the case, and writing to a const string will cause a kernel fault. To fix this, use kstrdup() to copy the type before modifying it. If the trace event is for the core kernel there's no need to free it because the string will be in use for the life of the machine being on line. For modules, create a link list to store all the strings being allocated for modules and when the module is removed, free them.

2022-03-11tracing: Have TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM affect trace event types as wellSteven Rostedt (Google)1-0/+28
The macro TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM is used to convert enums in the kernel to their actual value when they are exported to user space via the trace event format file. Currently only the enums in the "print fmt" (TP_printk in the TRACE_EVENT macro) have the enums converted.

Allow custom events to be added to the events directory in the tracefs file system. For example, a module could be installed that attaches to an event and wants to be enabled and disabled via the tracefs file system. It would use trace_add_event_call() to add the event to the tracefs directory, and trace_remove_event_call() to remove it. Make both those functions EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL().

When creating a new event (via a module, kprobe, eprobe, etc), the descriptors that are created must add flags for pid filtering if an instance has pid filtering enabled, as the flags are used at the time the event is executed to know if pid filtering should be done or not. The "Only trace this pid" case was added, but a cut and paste error made that case checked twice, instead of checking the "Trace all but this pid" case.

This will make it easier for admins who want to define a group for accessing tracefs and not having to first disable all the permission bits for "other" in the file system.

Instead of having the logic that does trace_pid_list open coded, wrap it in abstract functions. This will allow a rewrite of the logic that implements the trace_pid_list without affecting the users. Note, this causes a change in behavior. Every time a pid is written into the set_*_pid file, it creates a new list and uses RCU to update it. If pid_max is lowered, but there was a pid currently in the list that was higher than pid_max, those pids will now be removed on updating the list. The old behavior kept that from happening. The rewrite of the pid_list logic will no longer depend on pid_max, and will return the old behavior. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2021-09-03tracing: Add migrate-disabled counter to tracing output.Thomas Gleixner1-0/+1
migrate_disable() forbids task migration to another CPU. It is available since v5.11 and has already users such as highmem or BPF. It is useful to observe this task state in tracing which already has other states like the preemption counter. Instead of adding the migrate disable counter as a new entry to struct trace_entry, which would extend the whole struct by four bytes, it is squashed into the preempt-disable counter. The lower four bits represent the preemption counter, the upper four bits represent the migrate disable counter. Both counter shouldn't exceed 15 but if they do, there is a safety net which caps the value at 15. Add the migrate-disable counter to the trace entry so it shows up in the trace. Due to the users mentioned above, it is already possible to observe it: | bash-1108 [000] ...21 73.950578: rss_stat: mm_id=2213312838 curr=0 type=MM_ANONPAGES size=8192B | bash-1108 [000] d..31 73.951222: irq_disable: caller=flush_tlb_mm_range+0x115/0x130 parent=ptep_clear_flush+0x42/0x50 | bash-1108 [000] d..31 73.951222: tlb_flush: pages:1 reason:local mm shootdown (3) The last value is the migrate-disable counter. Things that popped up: - trace_print_lat_context() does not print the migrate counter. Not sure if it should. It is used in "verbose" mode and uses 8 digits and I'm not sure ther is something processing the value. - trace_define_common_fields() now defines a different variable. This probably breaks things. No ide what to do in order to preserve the old behaviour. Since this is used as a filter it should be split somehow to be able to match both nibbles here.

2021-03-18tracing: Add check of trace event print fmts for dereferencing pointersSteven Rostedt (VMware)1-0/+210
Trace events record data into the ring buffer at the time of the event. The trace event has a printf logic to display the recorded data at a much later time when the user reads the trace file. This makes using dereferencing pointers unsafe if the dereferenced pointer points to the original source. The safe way to handle this is to create an array within the trace event and copy the source into the array. Then the dereference pointer may point to that array. As this is a easy mistake to make, a check is added to examine all trace event print fmts to make sure that they are safe to use. This only checks the various %p* dereferenced pointers like %pB, %pR, etc. It does not handle dereferencing of strings, as there are some use cases that are OK to dereference the source. That will be dealt with differently. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The ftrace subsystem currently has both the "enable" and "filter" files that in other subsystems are used to enable/disable all events within the subsystem or set a filter for all the subsystem events.

2021-02-05tracing: Do not count ftrace events in top level enable outputSteven Rostedt (VMware)1-1/+2
The file /sys/kernel/tracing/events/enable is used to enable all events by echoing in "1", or disabling all events when echoing in "0". To know if all events are enabled, disabled, or some are enabled but not all of them, cating the file should show either "1" (all enabled), "0" (all disabled), or "X" (some enabled but not all of them). This works the same as the "enable" files in the individule system directories (like tracing/events/sched/enable). But when all events are enabled, the top level "enable" file shows "X". The reason is that its checking the "ftrace" events, which are special events that only exist for their format files. These include the format for the function tracer events, that are enabled when the function tracer is enabled, but not by the "enable" file. The check includes these events, which will always be disabled, and even though all true events are enabled, the top level "enable" file will show "X" instead of "1". To fix this, have the check test the event's flags to see if it has the "IGNORE_ENABLE" flag set, and if so, not test it.

2021-02-02tracing: Merge irqflags + preempt counter.Sebastian Andrzej Siewior1-12/+6
The state of the interrupts (irqflags) and the preemption counter are both passed down to tracing_generic_entry_update(). Only one bit of irqflags is actually required: The on/off state. The complete 32bit of the preemption counter isn't needed. Just whether of the upper bits (softirq, hardirq and NMI) are set and the preemption depth is needed. The irqflags and the preemption counter could be evaluated early and the information stored in an integer `trace_ctx'. tracing_generic_entry_update() would use the upper bits as the TRACE_FLAG_* and the lower 8bit as the disabled-preemption depth (considering that one must be substracted from the counter in one special cases). The actual preemption value is not used except for the tracing record. The `irqflags' variable is mostly used only for the tracing record. An exception here is for instance wakeup_tracer_call() or probe_wakeup_sched_switch() which explicilty disable interrupts and use that `irqflags' to save (and restore) the IRQ state and to record the state. Struct trace_event_buffer has also the `pc' and flags' members which can be replaced with `trace_ctx' since their actual value is not used outside of trace recording. This will reduce tracing_generic_entry_update() to simply assign values to struct trace_entry. The evaluation of the TRACE_FLAG_* bits is moved to _tracing_gen_ctx_flags() which replaces preempt_count() and local_save_flags() invocations. As an example, ftrace_syscall_enter() may invoke: - trace_buffer_lock_reserve() -> … -> tracing_generic_entry_update() - event_trigger_unlock_commit() -> ftrace_trace_stack() -> … -> tracing_generic_entry_update() -> ftrace_trace_userstack() -> … -> tracing_generic_entry_update() In this case the TRACE_FLAG_* bits were evaluated three times. By using the `trace_ctx' they are evaluated once and assigned three times.

If this is called by a callback that their ftrace_ops did not have a FL_SAVE_REGS flag set, it that helper function will return NULL. This will allow the ftrace_regs to hold enough just to get the parameters and stack pointer, but without the worry that callbacks may have a pt_regs that is not completely filled.

Now that all callbacks are recursion safe, reverse the meaning of the RECURSION flag and rename it from RECURSION_SAFE to simply RECURSION. Now only callbacks that request to have recursion protecting it will have the added trampoline to do so. Also remove the outdated comment about "PER_CPU" when determining to use the ftrace_ops_assist_func.

2020-09-01module: Fix up module_notifier return valuesPeter Zijlstra1-1/+1
While auditing all module notifiers I noticed a whole bunch of fail wrt the return value. Notifiers have a 'special' return semantics. As is; NOTIFY_DONE vs NOTIFY_OK is a bit vague; but notifier_from_errno(0) results in NOTIFY_OK and NOTIFY_DONE has a comment that says "Don't care". From this I've used NOTIFY_DONE when the function completely ignores the callback and notifier_to_error() isn't used.

2020-08-04tracing: Use trace_sched_process_free() instead of exit() for pid tracingSteven Rostedt (VMware)1-2/+2
On exit, if a process is preempted after the trace_sched_process_exit() tracepoint but before the process is done exiting, then when it gets scheduled in, the function tracers will not filter it properly against the function tracing pid filters. That is because the function tracing pid filters hooks to the sched_process_exit() tracepoint to remove the exiting task's pid from the filter list. Because the filtering happens at the sched_switch tracepoint, when the exiting task schedules back in to finish up the exit, it will no longer be in the function pid filtering tables. This was noticeable in the notrace self tests on a preemptable kernel, as the tests would fail as it exits and preempted after being taken off the notrace filter table and on scheduling back in it would not be in the notrace list, and then the ending of the exit function would trace. The test detected this and would fail.

2020-06-01tracing: Add hist_debug trace event files for histogram debuggingTom Zanussi1-0/+4
Add a new "hist_debug" file for each trace event, which when read will dump out a bunch of internal details about the hist triggers defined on that event. This is normally off but can be enabled by saying 'y' to the new CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS_DEBUG config option. This is in support of the new Documentation file describing histogram internals, Documentation/trace/histogram-design.rst, which was requested by developers trying to understand the internals when extending or making use of the hist triggers for higher-level tools. The histogram-design.rst documentation refers to the hist_debug files and demonstrates their use with output in the test examples.

There's currently a way to select a task that should only have its events traced, but there's no way to select a task not to have itsevents traced. Add a set_event_notrace_pid file that acts the same as set_event_pid (and is also affected by event-fork), but the task pids in this file will not be traced even if they are listed in the set_event_pid file. This makes it easy for tools like trace-cmd to "hide" itself from beint traced by events when it is recording other tasks. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
