Currently the top level debug file system function tracer shares its
ftrace_ops with the function graph tracer. This was thought to be fine
because the tracers are not used together, as one can only enable
function or function_graph tracer in the current_tracer file.
But that assumption proved to be incorrect. The function profiler
can use the function graph tracer when function tracing is enabled.
Since all function graph users uses the function tracing ftrace_ops
this causes a conflict and when a user enables both function profiling
as well as the function tracer it will crash ftrace and disable it.
The quick solution so far is to move them as separate ftrace_ops like
it was earlier. The problem though is to synchronize the functions that
are traced because both function and function_graph tracer are limited
by the selections made in the set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace
files.
To handle this, a new structure is made called ftrace_ops_hash. This
structure will now hold the filter_hash and notrace_hash, and the
ftrace_ops will point to this structure. That will allow two ftrace_ops
to share the same hashes.
Since most ftrace_ops do not share the hashes, and to keep allocation
simple, the ftrace_ops structure will include both a pointer to the
ftrace_ops_hash called func_hash, as well as the structure itself,
called local_hash. When the ops are registered, the func_hash pointer
will be initialized to point to the local_hash within the ftrace_ops
structure. Some of the ftrace internal ftrace_ops will be initialized
statically. This will allow for the function and function_graph tracer
to have separate ops but still share the same hash tables that determine
what functions they trace.

Having two fields within the same struct that is off by one character
can be confusing and error prone. Rename the counter "trampolines"
to "nr_trampolines" to explicitly show it is a counter and not to
be confused by the "trampoline" field.

function_trace_stop is no longer used to disable function tracing.
This means that archs are no longer limited if it does not support
checking this variable in the mcount trampoline.
No need to use the list_func for archs that do not support this
obsolete method.

ftrace_stop() is going away as it disables parts of function tracing
that affects users that should not be affected. But ftrace_graph_stop()
is built on ftrace_stop(). Here's another example of killing all of
function tracing because something went wrong with function graph
tracing.
Instead of disabling all users of function tracing on function graph
error, disable only function graph tracing.
A new function is created called ftrace_graph_is_dead(). This is called
in strategic paths to prevent function graph from doing more harm and
allowing at least a warning to be printed before the system crashes.
NOTE: ftrace_stop() is still used until all the archs are converted over
to use ftrace_graph_is_dead(). After that, ftrace_stop() will be removed.

Currently if an arch supports function graph tracing, the core code will
just assign the function graph trampoline to the function graph addr that
gets called.
But as the old method for function graph tracing always calls the function
trampoline first and that calls the function graph trampoline, some
archs may have the function graph trampoline dependent on operations that
were done in the function trampoline. This causes function graph tracer
to break on those archs.
Instead of having the default be to set the function graph ftrace_ops
to the function graph trampoline, have it instead just set it to zero
which will keep it from jumping to a trampoline that is not set up
to be jumped directly too.

Function graph tracing is a bit different than the function tracers, as
it is processed after either the ftrace_caller or ftrace_regs_caller
and we only have one place to modify the jump to ftrace_graph_caller,
the jump needs to happen after the restore of registeres.
The function graph tracer is dependent on the function tracer, where
even if the function graph tracing is going on by itself, the save and
restore of registers is still done for function tracing regardless of
if function tracing is happening, before it calls the function graph
code.
If there's no function tracing happening, it is possible to just call
the function graph tracer directly, and avoid the wasted effort to save
and restore regs for function tracing.
This requires adding new flags to the dyn_ftrace records:
FTRACE_FL_TRAMP
FTRACE_FL_TRAMP_EN
The first is set if the count for the record is one, and the ftrace_ops
associated to that record has its own trampoline. That way the mcount code
can call that trampoline directly.
In the future, trampolines can be added to arbitrary ftrace_ops, where you
can have two or more ftrace_ops registered to ftrace (like kprobes and perf)
and if they are not tracing the same functions, then instead of doing a
loop to check all registered ftrace_ops against their hashes, just call the
ftrace_ops trampoline directly, which would call the registered ftrace_ops
function directly.
Without this patch perf showed:

As new flags will be added to the ftrace dynamic record, and since
the flags field is also a counter, converting the numbers used to
do the shifting and masking into a set of macros where we only need
to deal with the max bit count of the counter and the number of bits
for the flags will prevent mistakes in the future.
Dealing with only two numbers is much easier than updating all the
macros that deal with shifting and masking.

Most archs with HAVE_ARCH_CALLER_ADDR have pretty much the same
definitions of CALLER_ADDRx(n). Instead of duplicating the code for all
the archs, define a ftrace_return_address0() and
ftrace_return_address(n) that can be overwritten by the archs if they
need to do something different. Instead of 7 macros in every arch, we
now only have at most 2 (and actually only 1 as
ftrace_return_address0() should be the same for all archs).
The CALLER_ADDRx(n) will now be defined in linux/ftrace.h and use the
ftrace_return_address*(n?) macros. This removes a lot of the duplicate
code.

As the decision to what needs to be done (converting a call to the
ftrace_caller to ftrace_caller_regs or to convert from ftrace_caller_regs
to ftrace_caller) can easily be determined from the rec->flags of
FTRACE_FL_REGS and FTRACE_FL_REGS_EN, there's no need to have the
ftrace_check_record() return either a UPDATE_MODIFY_CALL_REGS or a
UPDATE_MODIFY_CALL. Just he latter is enough. This added flag causes

Move and rename get_ftrace_addr() and get_ftrace_addr_old() to
ftrace_get_addr_new() and ftrace_get_addr_curr() respectively.
This moves these two helper functions in the generic code out from
the arch specific code, and renames them to have a better generic
name. This will allow other archs to use them as well as makes it
a bit easier to work on getting separate trampolines for different
functions.
ftrace_get_addr_new() returns the trampoline address that the mcount
call address will be converted to.
ftrace_get_addr_curr() returns the trampoline address of what the
mcount call address currently jumps to.

A race exists between module loading and enabling of function tracer.
CPU 1 CPU 2
----- -----
load_module()
module->state = MODULE_STATE_COMING
register_ftrace_function()
mutex_lock(&ftrace_lock);
ftrace_startup()
update_ftrace_function();
ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare()
set_all_module_text_rw();
<enables-ftrace>
ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process()
set_all_module_text_ro();
[ here all module text is set to RO,
including the module that is
loading!! ]
blocking_notifier_call_chain(MODULE_STATE_COMING);
ftrace_init_module()
[ tries to modify code, but it's RO, and fails!
ftrace_bug() is called]
When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and
all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot.
The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core
kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification
of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c
there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives
a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the
module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be
treated as such.
The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be
called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored
by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.

Instead of having a list of global functions that are called,
as only one global function is allow to be enabled at a time, there's
no reason to have a list.
Instead, simply have all the users of the global ops, use the global ops
directly, instead of registering their own ftrace_ops. Just switch what
function is used before enabling the function tracer.
This removes a lot of code as well as the complexity involved with it.

Passing data to the function callback was originally done by adding the
ftrace_ops in another structure, and using the container_of() to get
the field. But this adds a bit more complexity than it is worth, and
adding a simple .private field to ftrace_ops makes things a lot easier.
But be warned, the .private data should not be freed once it is used
unless the ftrace_ops itself has gone through the necessary freeing
routines. A simple synchronize_sched() is not enough as functions
can be traced that are called outside the view of RCU and all its
concoctions.

Trace event triggers added a lseek that uses the ftrace_filter_lseek()
function. Unfortunately, when function tracing is not configured in
that function is not defined and the kernel fails to build.
This is the second time that function was added to a file ops and
it broke the build due to requiring special config dependencies.
Make a generic tracing_lseek() that all the tracing utilities may
use.
Also, modify the old ftrace_filter_lseek() to return 0 instead of
1 on WRONLY. Not sure why it was a 1 as that does not make sense.
This also changes the old tracing_seek() to modify the file pos
pointer on WRONLY as well.

Add a traceoff_on_warning option in both the kernel command line as well
as a sysctl option. When set, any WARN*() function that is hit will cause
the tracing_on variable to be cleared, which disables writing to the
ring buffer.
This is useful especially when tracing a bug with function tracing. When
a warning is hit, the print caused by the warning can flood the trace with
the functions that producing the output for the warning. This can make the
resulting trace useless by either hiding where the bug happened, or worse,
by overflowing the buffer and losing the trace of the bug totally.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"Along with the usual minor fixes and clean ups there are a few major
changes with this pull request.
1) Multiple buffers for the ftrace facility
This feature has been requested by many people over the last few
years. I even heard that Google was about to implement it themselves.
I finally had time and cleaned up the code such that you can now
create multiple instances of the ftrace buffer and have different
events go to different buffers. This way, a low frequency event will
not be lost in the noise of a high frequency event.
Note, currently only events can go to different buffers, the tracers
(ie function, function_graph and the latency tracers) still can only
be written to the main buffer.
2) The function tracer triggers have now been extended.
The function tracer had two triggers. One to enable tracing when a
function is hit, and one to disable tracing. Now you can record a
stack trace on a single (or many) function(s), take a snapshot of the
buffer (copy it to the snapshot buffer), and you can enable or disable
an event to be traced when a function is hit.
3) A perf clock has been added.
A "perf" clock can be chosen to be used when tracing. This will cause
ftrace to use the same clock as perf uses, and hopefully this will
make it easier to interleave the perf and ftrace data for analysis."

Currently set_ftrace_pid and set_graph_function files use seq_lseek
for their fops. However seq_open() is called only for FMODE_READ in
the fops->open() so that if an user tries to seek one of those file
when she open it for writing, it sees NULL seq_file and then panic.
It can be easily reproduced with following command:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing

In this example, GNU coreutils' tee opens the file with fopen(, "a")

The function tracing control loop used by perf spits out a warning
if the called function is not a control function. This is because
the control function references a per cpu allocated data structure
on struct ftrace_ops that is not allocated for other types of
functions.
commit 0a016409e42 "ftrace: Optimize the function tracer list loop"
Had an optimization done to all function tracing loops to optimize
for a single registered ops. Unfortunately, this allows for a slight
race when tracing starts or ends, where the stub function might be
called after the current registered ops is removed. In this case we
get the following dump:
root# perf stat -e ftrace:function sleep 1

To fix this a new ftrace_ops flag is added that denotes the ftrace_list_end
ftrace_ops stub as just that, a stub. This flag is now checked in the
control loop and the function is not called if the flag is set.
Thanks to Jovi for not just reporting the bug, but also pointing out
where the bug was in the code.

When a function probe is created, each function that the probe is
attached to, a "callback" method is called. On release of the probe,
each function entry calls the "free" method.
First, "callback" is a confusing name and does not really match what
it does. Callback sounds like it will be called when the probe
triggers. But that's not the case. This is really an "init" function,
so lets rename it as such.
Secondly, both "init" and "free" do not pass enough information back
to the handlers. Pass back the ops, ip and data for each time the
method is called. We have the information, might as well use it.

Move SAVE_REGS support flag into Kconfig and rename
it to CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS. This also introduces
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS which indicates
the architecture depending part of ftrace has a code

On the other hand, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS indicates
the code is enabled.

Add selftests to test the function tracing recursion protection actually
does work. It also tests if a ftrace_ops states it will perform its own
protection. Although, even if the ftrace_ops states it will protect itself,
the ftrace infrastructure may still provide protection if the arch does
not support all features or another ftrace_ops is registered.

As more users of the function tracer utility are being added, they do
not always add the necessary recursion protection. To protect from
function recursion due to tracing, if the callback ftrace_ops does not
specifically specify that it protects against recursion (by setting
the FTRACE_OPS_FL_RECURSION_SAFE flag), the list operation will be
called by the mcount trampoline which adds recursion protection.
If the flag is set, then the function will be called directly with no
extra protection.
Note, the list operation is called if more than one function callback
is registered, or if the arch does not support all of the function
tracer features.

Add a way to have different functions calling different trampolines.
If a ftrace_ops wants regs saved on the return, then have only the
functions with ops registered to save regs. Functions registered by
other ops would not be affected, unless the functions overlap.
If one ftrace_ops registered functions A, B and C and another ops
registered fucntions to save regs on A, and D, then only functions
A and D would be saving regs. Function B and C would work as normal.
Although A is registered by both ops: normal and saves regs; this is fine
as saving the regs is needed to satisfy one of the ops that calls it
but the regs are ignored by the other ops function.
x86_64 implements the full regs saving, and i386 just passes a NULL
for regs to satisfy the ftrace_ops passing. Where an arch must supply
both regs and ftrace_ops parameters, even if regs is just NULL.
It is OK for an arch to pass NULL regs. All function trace users that
require regs passing must add the flag FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS when
registering the ftrace_ops. If the arch does not support saving regs
then the ftrace_ops will fail to register. The flag
FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS_IF_SUPPORTED may be set that will prevent the
ftrace_ops from failing to register. In this case, the handler may
either check if regs is not NULL or check if ARCH_SUPPORTS_FTRACE_SAVE_REGS.
If the arch supports passing regs it will set this macro and pass regs
for ops that request them. All other archs will just pass NULL.

Return as the 4th paramater to the function tracer callback the pt_regs.
Later patches that implement regs passing for the architectures will require
having the ftrace_ops set the SAVE_REGS flag, which will tell the arch
to take the time to pass a full set of pt_regs to the ftrace_ops callback
function. If the arch does not support it then it should pass NULL.
If an arch can pass full regs, then it should define:
ARCH_SUPPORTS_FTRACE_SAVE_REGS to 1

As the function tracer starts to get more features, the support for
theses features will spread out throughout the different architectures
over time. These features boil down to what each arch does in the
mcount trampoline (the ftrace_caller).
Currently there's two features that are not the same throughout the
archs.
1) Support to stop function tracing before the callback
2) passing of the ftrace ops
Both of these require placing an indirect function to support the
features if the mcount trampoline does not.
On a side note, for all architectures, when more than one callback
is registered to the function tracer, an intermediate 'list' function
is called by the mcount trampoline to iterate through the callbacks
that are registered.
Instead of making a separate function for each of these features,
and requiring several indirect calls, just use the single 'list' function
as the intermediate, to handle all cases. If an arch does not support
the 'stop function tracing' or the passing of ftrace ops, just force
it to use the list function that will handle the features required.
This makes the code cleaner and simpler and removes a lot of
#ifdefs in the code.

Currently the function trace callback receives only the ip and parent_ip
of the function that it traced. It would be more powerful to also return
the ops that registered the function as well. This allows the same function
to act differently depending on what ftrace_ops registered it.

ftrace_location() is passed an addr, and returns 1 if the addr is
on a ftrace nop (or caller to ftrace_caller), and 0 otherwise.
To let kprobes know if it should move a breakpoint or not, it
must return the actual addr that is the start of the ftrace nop.
This way a kprobe placed on the location of a ftrace nop, can
instead be placed on the instruction after the nop. Even if the
probe addr is on the second or later byte of the nop, it can
simply be moved forward.

This method changes x86 to add a breakpoint to the mcount locations
instead of calling stop machine.
Now that iret can be handled by NMIs, we perform the following to
update code:
1) Add a breakpoint to all locations that will be modified
2) Sync all cores
3) Update all locations to be either a nop or call (except breakpoint
op)
4) Sync all cores
5) Remove the breakpoint with the new code.
6) Sync all cores
[
Added updates that Masami suggested:
Use unlikely(modifying_ftrace_code) in int3 trap to keep kprobes efficient.
Don't use NOTIFY_* in ftrace handler in int3 as it is not a notifier.

Adding support to filter function trace event via perf
interface. It is now possible to use filter interface
in the perf tool like:
perf record -e ftrace:function --filter="(ip == mm_*)" ls
The filter syntax is restricted to the the 'ip' field only,
and following operators are accepted '==' '!=' '||', ending
up with the filter strings like:
ip == f1[, ]f2 ... || ip != f3[, ]f4 ...
with comma ',' or space ' ' as a function separator. If the
space ' ' is used as a separator, the right side of the
assignment needs to be enclosed in double quotes '"', e.g.:
perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == do_execve,sys_*,ext*)' ls
perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve,sys_*,ext*")' ls
perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve sys_* ext*")' ls
The '==' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would
be added via set_ftrace_filter file.
The '!=' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would
be added via set_ftrace_notrace file.
The right side of the '!=', '==' operators is list of functions
or regexp. to be added to filter separated by space.
The '||' operator is used for connecting multiple filter definitions
together. It is possible to have more than one '==' and '!='
operators within one filter string.

Adding a way to temporarily enable/disable ftrace_ops. The change
follows the same way as 'global' ftrace_ops are done.
Introducing 2 global ftrace_ops - control_ops and ftrace_control_list
which take over all ftrace_ops registered with FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL
flag. In addition new per cpu flag called 'disabled' is also added to
ftrace_ops to provide the control information for each cpu.
When ftrace_ops with FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL is registered, it is
set as disabled for all cpus.
The ftrace_control_list contains all the registered 'control' ftrace_ops.
The control_ops provides function which iterates ftrace_control_list
and does the check for 'disabled' flag on current cpu.
Adding 3 inline functions:
ftrace_function_local_disable/ftrace_function_local_enable
- enable/disable the ftrace_ops on current cpu
ftrace_function_local_disabled
- get disabled ftrace_ops::disabled value for current cpu

Currently the ftrace_set_filter and ftrace_set_notrace functions
do not return any return code. So there's no way for ftrace_ops
user to tell wether the filter was correctly applied.
The set_ftrace_filter interface returns error in case the filter
did not match:
# echo krava > set_ftrace_filter
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
Changing both ftrace_set_filter and ftrace_set_notrace functions
to return zero if the filter was applied correctly or -E* values
in case of error.
