5f7fb89a11 function_graph: Everyone uses HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR, remove it
All architectures that implement function graph also implements
HAVE_FUNCTION_GRAPH_RET_ADDR_PTR. Remove it, as it is no longer a
differentiator.

5f16eb0549 Char/Misc and other driver subsystem changes for 6.10-rc1
Here is the big set of char/misc and other driver subsystem updates for
 6.10-rc1.  Nothing major here, just lots of new drivers and updates for
 apis and new hardware types.  Included in here are:
   - big IIO driver updates with more devices and drivers added
   - fpga driver updates
   - hyper-v driver updates
   - uio_pruss driver removal, no one uses it, other drivers control the
     same hardware now
   - binder minor updates
   - mhi driver updates
   - excon driver updates
   - counter driver updates
   - accessability driver updates
   - coresight driver updates
   - other hwtracing driver updates
   - nvmem driver updates
   - slimbus driver updates
   - spmi driver updates
   - other smaller misc and char driver updates
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.

53683e4080 tracing ring buffer updates for v6.10:
- Add ring_buffer memory mappings
 
   The tracing ring buffer was created based on being mostly used with the
   splice system call. It is broken up into page ordered sub-buffers and the
   reader swaps a new sub-buffer with an existing sub-buffer that's part
   of the write buffer. It then has total access to the swapped out
   sub-buffer and can do copyless movements of the memory into other mediums
   (file system, network, etc).
 
   The buffer is great for passing around the ring buffer contents in the
   kernel, but is not so good for when the consumer is the user space task
   itself.
 
   A new interface is added that allows user space to memory map the ring
   buffer. It will get all the write sub-buffers as well as reader sub-buffer
   (that is not written to). It can send an ioctl to change which sub-buffer
   is the new reader sub-buffer.
 
   The ring buffer is read only to user space. It only needs to call the
   ioctl when it is finished with a sub-buffer and needs a new sub-buffer
   that the writer will not write over.
 
   A self test program was also created for testing and can be used as
   an example for the interface to user space. The libtracefs (external
   to the kernel) also has code that interacts with this, although it is
   disabled until the interface is in a official release. It can be enabled
   by compiling the library with a special flag. This was used for testing
   applications that perform better with the buffer being mapped.
 
   Memory mapped buffers have limitations. The main one is that it can not be
   used with the snapshot logic. If the buffer is mapped, snapshots will be
   disabled. If any logic is set to trigger snapshots on a buffer, that
   buffer will not be allowed to be mapped.

a2ded784cd tracing updates for 6.8:
- Allow kernel trace instance creation to specify what events are created
   Inside the kernel, a subsystem may create a tracing instance that it can

   thousands of events that exist in eventfs. Allow the sub-system to specify
   what sub-systems of events it cares about, and only those events are exposed
   to this instance.
 
 - Allow the ring buffer to be broken up into bigger sub-buffers than just the
   architecture page size. A new tracefs file called "buffer_subbuf_size_kb"
   is created. The user can now specify a minimum size the sub-buffer may be
   in kilobytes. Note, that the implementation currently make the sub-buffer
   size a power of 2 pages (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...) but the user only writes in
   kilobyte size, and the sub-buffer will be updated to the next size that
   it will can accommodate it. If the user writes in 10, it will change the
   size to be 4 pages on x86 (16K), as that is the next available size that
   can hold 10K pages.
 
 - Update the debug output when a corrupt time is detected in the ring buffer.
   If the ring buffer detects inconsistent timestamps, there's a debug config
   options that will dump the contents of the meta data of the sub-buffer that
   is used for debugging. Add some more information to this dump that helps
   with debugging.
 
 - Add more timestamp debugging checks (only triggers when the config is enabled)
 
 - Increase the trace_seq iterator to 2 page sizes.
 
 - Allow strings written into tracefs_marker to be larger. Up to just under
   2 page sizes (based on what trace_seq can hold).
 
 - Increase the trace_maker_raw write to be as big as a sub-buffer can hold.
 
 - Remove 32 bit time stamp logic, now that the rb_time_cmpxchg() has been

2f84b39f48 tracing: Update subbuffer with kilobytes not page order
Using page order for deciding what the size of the ring buffer sub buffers
are is exposing a bit too much of the implementation. Although the sub
buffers are only allocated in orders of pages, allow the user to specify
the minimum size of each sub-buffer via kilobytes like they can with the
buffer size itself.

If the user specifies 3 via:

  echo 3 > buffer_subbuf_size_kb

Then the sub-buffer size will round up to 4kb (on a 4kb page size system).

If they specify:

  echo 6 > buffer_subbuf_size_kb

The sub-buffer size will become 8kb.

and so on.

e49c0b1401 Documentation: coresight: fix make refcheckdocs warning
This reference uses a glob pattern to match multiple files, but the
asterisk was escaped as \* in order to not be interpreted by sphinx
as reStructuredText markup.

refcheckdocs/documentation-file-ref-check doesn't know about rST syntax
and tries to interpret the \* literally (instead of as a glob).

We can work around the warning by putting the Documentation reference
inside double backticks (``..``), which allows us to not escape the
asterisk.

31e5f934ff Tracing updates for v6.7:
- Remove eventfs_file descriptor
 
   This is the biggest change, and the second part of making eventfs
   create its files dynamically.
 
   In 6.6 the first part was added, and that maintained a one to one
   mapping between eventfs meta descriptors and the directories and
   file inodes and dentries that were dynamically created. The
   directories were represented by a eventfs_inode and the files
   were represented by a eventfs_file.
 
   In v6.7 the eventfs_file is removed. As all events have the same
   directory make up (sched_switch has an "enable", "id", "format",
   etc files), the handing of what files are underneath each leaf
   eventfs directory is moved back to the tracing subsystem via a
   callback. When a event is added to the eventfs, it registers
   an array of evenfs_entry's. These hold the names of the files and
   the callbacks to call when the file is referenced. The callback gets
   the name so that the same callback may be used by multiple files.
   The callback then supplies the filesystem_operations structure needed
   to create this file.
 
   This has brought the memory footprint of creating multiple eventfs
   instances down by 2 megs each!
 
 - User events now has persistent events that are not associated
   to a single processes. These are privileged events that hang around
   even if no process is attached to them.
 
 - Clean up of seq_buf.
   There's talk about using seq_buf more to replace strscpy() and friends.
   But this also requires some minor modifications of seq_buf to be
   able to do this.
 
 - Expand instance ring buffers individually
   Currently if boot up creates an instance, and a trace event is
   enabled on that instance, the ring buffer for that instance and the
   top level ring buffer are expanded (1.4 MB per CPU). This wastes
   memory as this happens when nothing is using the top level instance.
 
 - Other minor clean ups and fixes.

3dfbb555c9 mm, vmscan: remove ISOLATE_UNMAPPED
This isolate_mode_t flag is effectively unused since 89f6c88a6a ("mm:
__isolate_lru_page_prepare() in isolate_migratepages_block()") as
sc->may_unmap is now checked directly (and only node_reclaim has a mode
that sets it to 0).  The last remaining place is mm_vmscan_lru_isolate
tracepoint for the isolate_mode parameter.  That one was mainly used to
indicate the active/inactive mode, which the trace-vmscan-postprocess.pl
script consumed, but that got silently broken.  After fixing the script by
the previous patch, it does not need the isolate_mode anymore.  So just
remove the parameter and with that the whole ISOLATE_UNMAPPED flag.

83121580f2 trace-vmscan-postprocess: sync with tracepoints updates
The script has fallen behind tracepoint changes for a while, fix it up.

Most changes are mechanical (renames, removal of tracepoint parameters
that are not used by the script).  More notable change involves
mm_vmscan_lru_isolate which is relying on the isolate_mode to determine if
the inactive list is being scanned.  However the parameter currently only
indicates ISOLATE_UNMAPPED.  We can use the lru parameter instead to
determine which list is scanned, and stop checking isolate_mode.

Users need to know how to make events persist now that we allow for
that. We also now allow the dynamic_events file to create events by
utilizing the persist flag during event register.

Add back in to documentation how /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events can
be used to create persistent user_events. Add a section under registering
for the currently supported flags (USER_EVENT_REG_PERSIST) and the
required permissions. Add a note under deleting that deleting a
persistent event also requires sufficient permission.

34232fcfe9 Tracing updates for 6.6:
User visible changes:
 
   - Added a way to easier filter with cpumasks:
      # echo 'cpumask & CPUS{17-42}' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ipi_send_cpumask/filter
 
   - Show actual size of ring buffer after modifying the ring buffer size via
     buffer_size_kb. Currently it just returns what was written, but the actual
     size rounds up to the sub buffer size. Show that real size instead.
 
  Major changes:
 
   - Added "eventfs". This is the code that handles the inodes and dentries of
     tracefs/events directory. As there are thousands of events, and each event
     has several inodes and dentries that currently exist even when tracing is
     never used, they take up precious memory. Instead, eventfs will allocate
     the inodes and dentries in a JIT way (similar to what procfs does). There
     is now metadata that handles the events and subdirectories, and will create
     the inodes and dentries when they are used.
 
     Note, I also have patches that remove the subdirectory meta data, but will
     wait till the next merge window before applying them. It's a little more
     complex, and I want to make sure the dynamic code works properly before
     adding more complexity, making it easier to revert if need be.
 
  Minor changes:
 
   - Optimization to user event list traversal.
 
   - Remove intermediate permission of tracefs files (note the intermediate
     permission removes all access to the files so it is not a security concern,
     but just a clean up.)
 
   - Add the complex fix to FORTIFY_SOURCE to the kernel stack event logic.
 
   - Other minor clean ups.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "User visible changes:

   - Added a way to easier filter with cpumasks:

       # echo 'cpumask & CPUS{17-42}' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ipi_send_cpumask/filter

   - Show actual size of ring buffer after modifying the ring buffer
     size via buffer_size_kb.

     Currently it just returns what was written, but the actual size
     rounds up to the sub buffer size. Show that real size instead.

  Major changes:

   - Added "eventfs". This is the code that handles the inodes and
     dentries of tracefs/events directory. As there are thousands of
     events, and each event has several inodes and dentries that
     currently exist even when tracing is never used, they take up
     precious memory. Instead, eventfs will allocate the inodes and
     dentries in a JIT way (similar to what procfs does). There is now
     metadata that handles the events and subdirectories, and will
     create the inodes and dentries when they are used.

     Note, I also have patches that remove the subdirectory meta data,
     but will wait till the next merge window before applying them. It's
     a little more complex, and I want to make sure the dynamic code

- fprobe: Pass return address to the fprobe entry/exit callbacks so that
   the callbacks don't need to analyze pt_regs/stack to find the function
   return address.
 
 - kprobe events: cleanup usage of TPARG_FL_FENTRY and TPARG_FL_RETURN
   flags so that those are not set at once.
 
 - fprobe events:
  . Add a new fprobe events for tracing arbitrary function entry and
    exit as a trace event.
  . Add a new tracepoint events for tracing raw tracepoint as a trace
    event. This allows user to trace non user-exposed tracepoints.
  . Move eprobe's event parser code into probe event common file.
  . Introduce BTF (BPF type format) support to kernel probe (kprobe,
    fprobe and tracepoint probe) events so that user can specify traced
    function arguments by name. This also applies the type of argument
    when fetching the argument.
  . Introduce '$arg*' wildcard support if BTF is available. This expands
    the '$arg*' meta argument to all function argument automatically.
  . Check the return value types by BTF. If the function returns 'void',
    '$retval' is rejected.
  . Add some selftest script for fprobe events, tracepoint events and
    BTF support.
  . Update documentation about the fprobe events.
  . Some fixes for above features, document and selftests.
 
 - selftests for ftrace (except for new fprobe events):
  . Add a test case for multiple consecutive probes in a function which
    checks if ftrace based kprobe, optimized kprobe and normal kprobe
    can be defined in the same target function.
  . Add a test case for optimized probe, which checks whether kprobe
    can be optimized or not.

 - Also add the option: funcgraph-retval-hex where if it is not set, and
   the return value is an error code, then it will return the decimal of
   the error code, otherwise it still reports the hex value.
 
 - Add the file /sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/per_cpu/cpu<cpu>/timerlat_fd
   That when a application opens it, it becomes the task that the timer lat
   tracer traces. The application can also read this file to find out how
   it's being interrupted.
 
 - Add the file /sys/kernel/tracing/available_filter_functions_addrs
   that works just the same as available_filter_functions but also shows
   the addresses of the functions like kallsyms, except that it gives the
   address of where the fentry/mcount jump/nop is. This is used by BPF to
   make it easier to attach BPF programs to ftrace hooks.

e88ed227f6 tracing/timerlat: Add user-space interface
Going a step further, we propose a way to use any user-space
workload as the task waiting for the timerlat timer. This is done
via a per-CPU file named osnoise/cpu$id/timerlat_fd file.

The tracef_fd allows a task to open at a time. When a task reads
the file, the timerlat timer is armed for future osnoise/timerlat_period_us
time. When the timer fires, it prints the IRQ latency and
wakes up the user-space thread waiting in the timerlat_fd.

The thread then starts to run, executes the timerlat measurement, prints
the thread scheduling latency and returns to user-space.

When the thread rereads the timerlat_fd, the tracer will print the
user-ret(urn) latency, which is an additional metric.

This additional metric is also traced by the tracer and can be used, for
example of measuring the context switch overhead from kernel-to-user and
user-to-kernel, or the response time for an arbitrary execution in
user-space.

The tracer supports one thread per CPU, the thread must be pinned to
the CPU, and it cannot migrate while holding the timerlat_fd. The reason
is that the tracer is per CPU (nothing prohibits the tracer from
allowing migrations in the future). The tracer monitors the migration
of the thread and disables the tracer if detected.

The timerlat_fd is only available for opening/reading when timerlat
tracer is enabled, and NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD is set.

The simplest way to activate this feature from user-space is:

 -------------------------------- %< -----------------------------------
 int main(void)
 {
	char buffer[1024];
	int timerlat_fd;
	int retval;
	long cpu = 0;	/* place in CPU 0 */
	cpu_set_t set;

	CPU_ZERO(&set);
	CPU_SET(cpu, &set);

	if (sched_setaffinity(gettid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1)
		return 1;

	snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer),
		"/sys/kernel/tracing/osnoise/per_cpu/cpu%ld/timerlat_fd",
		cpu);

	timerlat_fd = open(buffer, O_RDONLY);
	if (timerlat_fd < 0) {
		printf("error opening %s: %s\n", buffer, strerror(errno));
		exit(1);
	}

	for (;;) {
		retval = read(timerlat_fd, buffer, 1024);
		if (retval < 0)
			break;
	}

	close(timerlat_fd);
	exit(0);
}
 -------------------------------- >% -----------------------------------

When disabling timerlat, if there is a workload holding the timerlat_fd,
the SIGKILL will be sent to the thread.

83f74441bc ftrace: Show all functions with addresses in available_filter_functions_addrs
Adding new available_filter_functions_addrs file that shows all available
functions (same as available_filter_functions) together with addresses,
like:

  # cat available_filter_functions_addrs | head
  ffffffff81000770 __traceiter_initcall_level
  ffffffff810007c0 __traceiter_initcall_start
  ffffffff81000810 __traceiter_initcall_finish
  ffffffff81000860 trace_initcall_finish_cb
  ...

Note displayed address is the patch-site address and can differ from
/proc/kallsyms address.

It's useful to have address avilable for traceable symbols, so we don't
need to allways cross check kallsyms with available_filter_functions
(or the other way around) and have all the data in single file.

For backwards compatibility reasons we can't change the existing
available_filter_functions file output, but we need to add new file.

The problem is that we need to do 2 passes:

 - through available_filter_functions and find out if the function is traceable
 - through /proc/kallsyms to get the address for traceable function

Having available_filter_functions symbols together with addresses allow
us to skip the kallsyms step and we are ok with the address in
available_filter_functions_addr not being the function entry, because
kprobe_multi uses fprobe and that handles both entry and patch-site
address properly.

We have 2 interfaces how to create kprobe_multi link:

  a) passing symbols to kernel

     1) user gathers symbols and need to ensure that they are
        trace-able -> pass through available_filter_functions file

     2) kernel takes those symbols and translates them to addresses
        through kallsyms api

     3) addresses are passed to fprobe/ftrace through:

         register_fprobe_ips
         -> ftrace_set_filter_ips

  b) passing addresses to kernel

     1) user gathers symbols and needs to ensure that they are
        trace-able -> pass through available_filter_functions file

     2) user takes those symbols and translates them to addresses
       through /proc/kallsyms

     3) addresses are passed to the kernel and kernel calls:

         register_fprobe_ips
         -> ftrace_set_filter_ips

The new available_filter_functions_addrs file helps us with option b),
because we can make 'b 1' and 'b 2' in one step - while filtering traceable
functions, we get the address directly.

6373c463ac hwtracing: hisi_ptt: Export available filters through sysfs
The PTT can only filter the traced TLP headers by the Root Ports or the
Requester ID of the Endpoint, which are located on the same PCIe core of
the PTT device. The filter value used is derived from the BDF number of
the supported Root Port or the Endpoint. It's not friendly enough for the
users since it requires the user to be familiar enough with the platform
and calculate the filter value manually.

This patch export the available filters through sysfs. Each available
filters is presented as an individual file with the name of the BDF
number of the related PCIe device. The files are created under
$(PTT PMU dir)/available_root_port_filters and
$(PTT PMU dir)/available_requester_filters respectively. The filter
value can be known by reading the related file.

Then the users can easily know the available filters for trace and get
the filter values without calculating.

4b512860bd tracing: Rename stacktrace field to common_stacktrace
The histogram and synthetic events can use a pseudo event called
"stacktrace" that will create a stacktrace at the time of the event and
use it just like it was a normal field. We have other pseudo events such
as "common_cpu" and "common_timestamp". To stay consistent with that,
convert "stacktrace" to "common_stacktrace". As this was used in older
kernels, to keep backward compatibility, this will act just like
"common_cpu" did with "cpu". That is, "cpu" will be the same as
"common_cpu" unless the event has a "cpu" field. In which case, the
event's field is used. The same is true with "stacktrace".

Also update the documentation to reflect this change.

e919a3f705 Minor tracing updates:
- Make buffer_percent read/write. The buffer_percent file is how users can
   state how long to block on the tracing buffer depending on how much
   is in the buffer. When it hits the "buffer_percent" it will wake the
   task waiting on the buffer. For some reason it was set to read-only.
   This was not noticed because testing was done as root without SELinux,
   but with SELinux it will prevent even root to write to it without having
   CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE.
 
 - The "touched_functions" was added this merge window, but one of the
   reasons for adding it was not implemented. That was to show what functions
   were not only touched, but had either a direct trampoline attached to
   it, or a kprobe or live kernel patching that can "hijack" the function
   to run a different function. The point is to know if there's functions
   in the kernel that may not be behaving as the kernel code shows. This can
   be used for debugging. TODO: Add this information to kernel oops too.

If a function had ever had IPMODIFY or DIRECT attached to it, where this

an "M" in the enabled_functions and touched_functions files. This can be
used for debugging. If a function had been modified and later there's a bug
in the code related to that function, this can be used to know if the cause
is possibly from a live kernel patch or a BPF program that changed the
behavior of the code.

touched_functions output, as it was missing direct callers and CALL_OPS.
And include this new modify attribute.

- User events are finally ready!
   After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally locked
   down on a stable interface for user events that can also work with user
   space only tracing. This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user
   space library, but that part is user space only and not part of this
   patch set), where the variable is that the application uses to know if
   something is listening to the trace. There's also an interface to tell
   the kernel about these events, which will show up in the
   /sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/ directory, where it can be
    enabled. When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell
   the application to start writing to the kernel.
   See https://lwn.net/Articles/927595/
 
 - Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of
   direct trampolines. Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but
   instead of jumping to the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF)
   can register their own trampoline for performance reasons.
 
 - Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient than
   kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that kprobes on
   ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes will be exposed
   as dynamic events.
 
 - More updates to references to the obsolete path of
   /sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path.
 
 - Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer line
   by line instead of all at once. There's users in production kernels that
   have a large data dump that originally used printk() directly, but the
   data dump was larger than what printk() allowed as a single print.
   Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that.
 
 - Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions that
   was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used for
   debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a crash by
   a bpf program or live patching.

8478cca1e3 tracing/probe: add a char type to show the character value of traced arguments
There are scenes that we want to show the character value of traced
arguments other than a decimal or hexadecimal or string value for debug
convinience. I add a new type named 'char' to do it and a new test case
file named 'kprobe_args_char.tc' to do selftest for char type.

For example:

The to be traced function is 'void demo_func(char type, char *name);', we
can add a kprobe event as follows to show argument values as we want:

echo  'p:myprobe demo_func $arg1:char +0($arg2):char[5]' > kprobe_events

we will get the following trace log:

... myprobe: (demo_func+0x0/0x29) arg1='A' arg2={'b','p','f','1',''}

2abfcd293b docs: ftrace: always use canonical ftrace path
The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.

But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:

  Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
  file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
  For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
  the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:

  /sys/kernel/debug/tracing

Many parts of Documentation still reference this older debugfs path, so
let's update them to avoid confusion.

e6745a4da9 tracing: Add a way to filter function addresses to function names
There's been several times where an event records a function address in
its field and I needed to filter on that address for a specific function
name. It required looking up the function in kallsyms, finding its size,
and doing a compare of "field >= function_start && field < function_end".

But this would change from boot to boot and is unreliable in scripts.
Also, it is useful to have this at boot up, where the addresses will not
be known. For example, on the boot command line:

  trace_trigger="initcall_finish.traceoff if func.function == acpi_init"

To implement this, add a ".function" prefix, that will check that the
field is of size long, and the only operations allowed (so far) are "=="
and "!=".

b26a124cbf tracing/probes: Add symstr type for dynamic events
Add 'symstr' type for storing the kernel symbol as a string data
instead of the symbol address. This allows us to filter the
events by wildcard symbol name.

e.g.
  # echo 'e:wqfunc workqueue.workqueue_execute_start symname=$function:symstr' >> dynamic_events
  # cat events/eprobes/wqfunc/format
  name: wqfunc
  ID: 2110
  format:
  	field:unsigned short common_type;	offset:0;	size:2;	signed:0;
  	field:unsigned char common_flags;	offset:2;	size:1;	signed:0;
  	field:unsigned char common_preempt_count;	offset:3;	size:1;	signed:0;
  	field:int common_pid;	offset:4;	size:4;	signed:1;

  	field:__data_loc char[] symname;	offset:8;	size:4;	signed:1;

  print fmt: " symname=\"%s\"", __get_str(symname)

Note that there is already 'symbol' type which just change the
print format (so it still stores the symbol address in the tracing
ring buffer.) On the other hand, 'symstr' type stores the actual
"symbol+offset/size" data as a string.

3b7ddab8a1 kprobes: kretprobe events missing on 2-core KVM guest
Default value of maxactive is set as num_possible_cpus() for nonpreemptable
systems. For a 2-core system, only 2 kretprobe instances would be allocated
in default, then these 2 instances for execve kretprobe are very likely to
be used up with a pipelined command.

Here's the testcase: a shell script was added to crontab, and the content
of the script is:

  #!/bin/sh
  do_something_magic `tr -dc a-z < /dev/urandom | head -c 10`

cron will trigger a series of program executions (4 times every hour). Then
events loss would be noticed normally after 3-4 hours of testings.

The issue is caused by a burst of series of execve requests. The best number
of kretprobe instances could be different case by case, and should be user's
duty to determine, but num_possible_cpus() as the default value is inadequate
especially for systems with small number of cpus.

This patch enables the logic for preemption as default, thus increases the
minimum of maxactive to 10 for nonpreemptable systems.

Pull setgid inheritance updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains the work to make setgid inheritance consistent between
  modifying a file and when changing ownership or mode as this has been
  a repeated source of very subtle bugs. The gist is that we perform the
  same permission checks in the write path as we do in the ownership and
  mode changing paths after this series where we're currently doing
  different things.

  We've already made setgid inheritance a lot more consistent and
  reliable in the last releases by moving setgid stripping from the
  individual filesystems up into the vfs. This aims to make the logic
  even more consistent and easier to understand and also to fix
  long-standing overlayfs setgid inheritance bugs. Miklos was nice
  enough to just let me carry the trivial overlayfs patches from Amir
  too.

  Below is a more detailed explanation how the current difference in
  setgid handling lead to very subtle bugs exemplified via overlayfs
  which is a victim of the current rules. I hope this explains why I
  think taking the regression risk here is worth it.

  A long while ago I found a few setgid inheritance bugs in overlayfs in
  the write path in certain conditions. Amir recently picked this back
  up in [1] and I jumped on board to fix this more generally.

  On the surface all that overlayfs would need to fix setgid inheritance
  would be to call file_remove_privs() or file_modified() but actually
  that isn't enough because the setgid inheritance api is wildly
  inconsistent in that area.

  Before this pr setgid stripping in file_remove_privs()'s old
  should_remove_suid() helper was inconsistent with other parts of the
  vfs. Specifically, it only raises ATTR_KILL_SGID if the inode is
  S_ISGID and S_IXGRP but not if the inode isn't in the caller's groups
  and the caller isn't privileged over the inode although we require
  this already in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and so all
  filesystem implement this requirement implicitly because they have to
  use setattr_{prepare,copy}() anyway.

  But the inconsistency shows up in setgid stripping bugs for overlayfs
  in xfstests (e.g., generic/673, generic/683, generic/685, generic/686,
  generic/687). For example, we test whether suid and setgid stripping
  works correctly when performing various write-like operations as an
  unprivileged user (fallocate, reflink, write, etc.):

      echo "Test 1 - qa_user, non-exec file $verb"
      setup_testfile
      chmod a+rws $junk_file
      commit_and_check "$qa_user" "$verb" 64k 64k

  The test basically creates a file with 6666 permissions. While the
  file has the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits set it does not have the S_IXGRP
  set.

  On a regular filesystem like xfs what will happen is:

      sys_fallocate()
      -> vfs_fallocate()
         -> xfs_file_fallocate()
            -> file_modified()
               -> __file_remove_privs()
                  -> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
                     -> should_remove_suid()
                  -> __remove_privs()
                     newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
                     -> notify_change()
                        -> setattr_copy()

  In should_remove_suid() we can see that ATTR_KILL_SUID is raised
  unconditionally because the file in the test has S_ISUID set.

  But we also see that ATTR_KILL_SGID won't be set because while the
  file is S_ISGID it is not S_IXGRP (see above) which is a condition for
  ATTR_KILL_SGID being raised.

  So by the time we call notify_change() we have attr->ia_valid set to
  ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_FORCE.

  Now notify_change() sees that ATTR_KILL_SUID is set and does:

      ia_valid      = attr->ia_valid |= ATTR_MODE
      attr->ia_mode = (inode->i_mode & ~S_ISUID);

  which means that when we call setattr_copy() later we will definitely
  update inode->i_mode. Note that attr->ia_mode still contains S_ISGID.

  Now we call into the filesystem's ->setattr() inode operation which
  will end up calling setattr_copy(). Since ATTR_MODE is set we will
  hit:

      if (ia_valid & ATTR_MODE) {
              umode_t mode = attr->ia_mode;
              vfsgid_t vfsgid = i_gid_into_vfsgid(mnt_userns, inode);
              if (!vfsgid_in_group_p(vfsgid) &&
                  !capable_wrt_inode_uidgid(mnt_userns, inode, CAP_FSETID))
                      mode &= ~S_ISGID;
              inode->i_mode = mode;
      }

  and since the caller in the test is neither capable nor in the group
  of the inode the S_ISGID bit is stripped.

  But assume the file isn't suid then ATTR_KILL_SUID won't be raised
  which has the consequence that neither the setgid nor the suid bits
  are stripped even though it should be stripped because the inode isn't
  in the caller's groups and the caller isn't privileged over the inode.

  If overlayfs is in the mix things become a bit more complicated and
  the bug shows up more clearly.

  When e.g., ovl_setattr() is hit from ovl_fallocate()'s call to
  file_remove_privs() then ATTR_KILL_SUID and ATTR_KILL_SGID might be
  raised but because the check in notify_change() is questioning the
  ATTR_KILL_SGID flag again by requiring S_IXGRP for it to be stripped
  the S_ISGID bit isn't removed even though it should be stripped:

      sys_fallocate()
      -> vfs_fallocate()
         -> ovl_fallocate()
            -> file_remove_privs()
               -> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
                  -> should_remove_suid()
               -> __remove_privs()
                  newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
                  -> notify_change()
                     -> ovl_setattr()
                        /* TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS */
                        -> ovl_do_notify_change()
                           -> notify_change()
                        /* GIVE UP MOUNTER'S CREDS */
           /* TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS */
           -> vfs_fallocate()
              -> xfs_file_fallocate()
                 -> file_modified()
                    -> __file_remove_privs()
                       -> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
                          -> should_remove_suid()
                       -> __remove_privs()
                          newattrs.ia_valid = attr_force | kill;
                          -> notify_change()

  The fix for all of this is to make file_remove_privs()'s
  should_remove_suid() helper perform the same checks as we already
  require in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and have
  notify_change() not pointlessly requiring S_IXGRP again. It doesn't
  make any sense in the first place because the caller must calculate
  the flags via should_remove_suid() anyway which would raise
  ATTR_KILL_SGID

  Note that some xfstests will now fail as these patches will cause the
  setgid bit to be lost in certain conditions for unprivileged users
  modifying a setgid file when they would've been kept otherwise. I
  think this risk is worth taking and I explained and mentioned this
  multiple times on the list [2].

  Enforcing the rules consistently across write operations and
  chmod/chown will lead to losing the setgid bit in cases were it
  might've been retained before.

  While I've mentioned this a few times but it's worth repeating just to
  make sure that this is understood. For the sake of maintainability,
  consistency, and security this is a risk worth taking.

  If we really see regressions for workloads the fix is to have special
  setgid handling in the write path again with different semantics from
  chmod/chown and possibly additional duct tape for overlayfs. I'll
  update the relevant xfstests with if you should decide to merge this
  second setgid cleanup.

  Before that people should be aware that there might be failures for
  fstests where unprivileged users modify a setgid file"

attr: use consistent sgid stripping checks
Currently setgid stripping in file_remove_privs()'s should_remove_suid()
helper is inconsistent with other parts of the vfs. Specifically, it only
raises ATTR_KILL_SGID if the inode is S_ISGID and S_IXGRP but not if the
inode isn't in the caller's groups and the caller isn't privileged over the
inode although we require this already in setattr_prepare() and
setattr_copy() and so all filesystem implement this requirement implicitly
because they have to use setattr_{prepare,copy}() anyway.

But the inconsistency shows up in setgid stripping bugs for overlayfs in
xfstests (e.g., generic/673, generic/683, generic/685, generic/686,
generic/687). For example, we test whether suid and setgid stripping works
correctly when performing various write-like operations as an unprivileged
user (fallocate, reflink, write, etc.):

echo "Test 1 - qa_user, non-exec file $verb"
setup_testfile
chmod a+rws $junk_file
commit_and_check "$qa_user" "$verb" 64k 64k

The test basically creates a file with 6666 permissions. While the file has
the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits set it does not have the S_IXGRP set. On a
regular filesystem like xfs what will happen is:

sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
   -> xfs_file_fallocate()
      -> file_modified()
         -> __file_remove_privs()
            -> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
               -> should_remove_suid()
            -> __remove_privs()
               newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
               -> notify_change()
                  -> setattr_copy()

In should_remove_suid() we can see that ATTR_KILL_SUID is raised
unconditionally because the file in the test has S_ISUID set.

But we also see that ATTR_KILL_SGID won't be set because while the file
is S_ISGID it is not S_IXGRP (see above) which is a condition for
ATTR_KILL_SGID being raised.

So by the time we call notify_change() we have attr->ia_valid set to
ATTR_KILL_SUID | ATTR_FORCE. Now notify_change() sees that
ATTR_KILL_SUID is set and does:

ia_valid = attr->ia_valid |= ATTR_MODE
attr->ia_mode = (inode->i_mode & ~S_ISUID);

which means that when we call setattr_copy() later we will definitely
update inode->i_mode. Note that attr->ia_mode still contains S_ISGID.

Now we call into the filesystem's ->setattr() inode operation which will
end up calling setattr_copy(). Since ATTR_MODE is set we will hit:

if (ia_valid & ATTR_MODE) {
        umode_t mode = attr->ia_mode;
        vfsgid_t vfsgid = i_gid_into_vfsgid(mnt_userns, inode);
        if (!vfsgid_in_group_p(vfsgid) &&
            !capable_wrt_inode_uidgid(mnt_userns, inode, CAP_FSETID))
                mode &= ~S_ISGID;
        inode->i_mode = mode;
}

and since the caller in the test is neither capable nor in the group of the
inode the S_ISGID bit is stripped.

But assume the file isn't suid then ATTR_KILL_SUID won't be raised which
has the consequence that neither the setgid nor the suid bits are stripped
even though it should be stripped because the inode isn't in the caller's
groups and the caller isn't privileged over the inode.

If overlayfs is in the mix things become a bit more complicated and the bug
shows up more clearly. When e.g., ovl_setattr() is hit from
ovl_fallocate()'s call to file_remove_privs() then ATTR_KILL_SUID and
ATTR_KILL_SGID might be raised but because the check in notify_change() is
questioning the ATTR_KILL_SGID flag again by requiring S_IXGRP for it to be
stripped the S_ISGID bit isn't removed even though it should be stripped:

sys_fallocate()
-> vfs_fallocate()
   -> ovl_fallocate()
      -> file_remove_privs()
         -> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
            -> should_remove_suid()
         -> __remove_privs()
            newattrs.ia_valid = ATTR_FORCE | kill;
            -> notify_change()
               -> ovl_setattr()
                  // TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS
                  -> ovl_do_notify_change()
                     -> notify_change()
                  // GIVE UP MOUNTER'S CREDS
     // TAKE ON MOUNTER'S CREDS
     -> vfs_fallocate()
        -> xfs_file_fallocate()
           -> file_modified()
              -> __file_remove_privs()
                 -> dentry_needs_remove_privs()
                    -> should_remove_suid()
                 -> __remove_privs()
                    newattrs.ia_valid = attr_force | kill;
                    -> notify_change()

The fix for all of this is to make file_remove_privs()'s
should_remove_suid() helper to perform the same checks as we already
require in setattr_prepare() and setattr_copy() and have notify_change()
not pointlessly requiring S_IXGRP again. It doesn't make any sense in the
first place because the caller must calculate the flags via
should_remove_suid() anyway which would raise ATTR_KILL_SGID.

While we're at it we move should_remove_suid() from inode.c to attr.c
where it belongs with the rest of the iattr helpers. Especially since it
returns ATTR_KILL_S{G,U}ID flags. We also rename it to
setattr_should_drop_suidgid() to better reflect that it indicates both
setuid and setgid bit removal and also that it returns attr flags.

Running xfstests with this doesn't report any regressions. We should really
try and use consistent checks.

   mode ('o' hotkey) to toggle showing full virtual address or just the offset.
 
 - Cache DSO build-ids when synthesizing PERF_RECORD_MMAP records for pre-existing threads,

   broadwellx, cascadelakex, haswell, haswellx, icelake, icelakex, ivybridge,
   ivytown, jaketown, sandybridge, sapphirerapids, skylake, skylakex, and
   tigerlake processors.
 
 - Update vendor JSON event files for the ARM Neoverse V1 and E1 platforms.
 
 - Add a 'perf test' entry for 'perf mem' where a struct has false sharing and
   this gets detected in the 'perf mem' output, tested with Intel, AMD and ARM64
   systems.
 
 - Add a 'perf test' entry to test the resolution of java symbols, where an
   output like this is expected:
 
      8.18%  jshell    jitted-50116-29.so    [.] Interpreter
      0.75%  Thread-1  jitted-83602-1670.so  [.] jdk.internal.jimage.BasicImageReader.getString(int)
 
 - Add tests for the ARM64 CoreSight hardware tracing feature, with specially
   crafted pureloop, memcpy, thread loop and unroll tread that then gets
   traced and the output compared with expected output.
 
   Documentation explaining it is also included.
 
 - Add per thread Intel PT 'perf test' entry to check that PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE events
   are recorded per CPU, resulting in a mixture of per thread and per CPU events and mmaps,
   verify that this gets all recorded correctly.
 
 - Introduce pthread mutex wrappers to allow for building with clang's
   -Wthread-safety, i.e. using the "guarded_by" "pt_guarded_by" "lockable",
   "exclusive_lock_function", "exclusive_trylock_function",
   "exclusive_locks_required", and "no_thread_safety_analysis" compiler function
   attributes.
 
 - Fix empty version number when building outside of a git repo.
 
 - Improve feature detection display when multiple versions of a feature are present, such
   as for binutils libbfd, that has a mix of possible ways to detect according to the
   Linux distribution.
 
   Previously in some cases we had:
 
   Auto-detecting system features
   <SNIP>
   ...                                  libbfd: [ on  ]
   ...                          libbfd-liberty: [ on  ]
   ...                        libbfd-liberty-z: [ on  ]
   <SNIP>
 
   Now for this case we show just the main feature:
 
   Auto-detecting system features
   <SNIP>
   ...                                  libbfd: [ on  ]
   <SNIP>
 
 - Remove some unused structs, variables, macros, function prototypes and
   includes from various places.

      perf annotate: Toggle full address <-> offset display

 - Add 'f' hotkey to the 'perf annotate' TUI interface when in
   'disassembler output' mode ('o' hotkey) to toggle showing full
   virtual address or just the offset.

 - Cache DSO build-ids when synthesizing PERF_RECORD_MMAP records for
   pre-existing threads, at the start of a 'perf record' session,
   speeding up that record startup phase.

 - Add a command line option to specify build ids in 'perf inject'.

 - Update JSON event files for the Intel alderlake, broadwell,
   broadwellde, broadwellx, cascadelakex, haswell, haswellx, icelake,
   icelakex, ivybridge, ivytown, jaketown, sandybridge, sapphirerapids,
   skylake, skylakex, and tigerlake processors.

 - Update vendor JSON event files for the ARM Neoverse V1 and E1
   platforms.

 - Add a 'perf test' entry for 'perf mem' where a struct has false
   sharing and this gets detected in the 'perf mem' output, tested with
   Intel, AMD and ARM64 systems.

 - Add a 'perf test' entry to test the resolution of java symbols, where
   an output like this is expected:

       8.18%  jshell    jitted-50116-29.so    [.] Interpreter
       0.75%  Thread-1  jitted-83602-1670.so  [.] jdk.internal.jimage.BasicImageReader.getString(int)

 - Add tests for the ARM64 CoreSight hardware tracing feature, with
   specially crafted pureloop, memcpy, thread loop and unroll tread that
   then gets traced and the output compared with expected output.

   Documentation explaining it is also included.

 - Add per thread Intel PT 'perf test' entry to check that
   PERF_RECORD_TEXT_POKE events are recorded per CPU, resulting in a
   mixture of per thread and per CPU events and mmaps, verify that this
   gets all recorded correctly.

 - Introduce pthread mutex wrappers to allow for building with clang's
   -Wthread-safety, i.e. using the "guarded_by" "pt_guarded_by"
   "lockable", "exclusive_lock_function", "exclusive_trylock_function",
   "exclusive_locks_required", and "no_thread_safety_analysis" compiler
   function attributes.

 - Fix empty version number when building outside of a git repo.

 - Improve feature detection display when multiple versions of a feature
   are present, such as for binutils libbfd, that has a mix of possible
   ways to detect according to the Linux distribution.

   Previously in some cases we had:

      Auto-detecting system features
      <SNIP>
      ...                                  libbfd: [ on  ]
      ...                          libbfd-liberty: [ on  ]
      ...                        libbfd-liberty-z: [ on  ]
      <SNIP>

   Now for this case we show just the main feature:

      Auto-detecting system features
      <SNIP>
      ...                                  libbfd: [ on  ]
      <SNIP>

 - Remove some unused structs, variables, macros, function prototypes
   and includes from various places.

Linus Torvalds
cdf072acb5 Tracing updates for 6.1:
Major changes:
 
  - Changed location of tracing repo from personal git repo to:
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace.git
 
  - Added Masami Hiramatsu as co-maintainer
 
  - Updated MAINTAINERS file to separate out FTRACE as it is
    more than just TRACING.
 
 Minor changes:
 
  - Added Mark Rutland as FTRACE reviewer
 
  - Updated user_events to make it on its way to remove the BROKEN tag.
    The changes should now be acceptable but will run it through
    a cycle and hopefully we can remove the BROKEN tag next release.
 
  - Added filtering to eprobes
 
  - Added a delta time to the benchmark trace event
 
  - Have the histogram and filter callbacks called via a switch
    statement instead of indirect functions. This speeds it up to
    avoid retpolines.
 
  - Add a way to wake up ring buffer waiters waiting for the
    ring buffer to fill up to its watermark.
 
  - New ioctl() on the trace_pipe_raw file to wake up ring buffer
    waiters.
 
  - Wake up waiters when the ring buffer is disabled.
    A reader may block when the ring buffer is disabled,
    but if it was blocked when the ring buffer is disabled
    it should then wake up.
 
 Fixes:
 
  - Allow splice to read partially read ring buffer pages
    Fixes splice never moving forward.
 
  - Fix inverted compare that made the "shortest" ring buffer
    wait queue actually the longest.
 
  - Fix a race in the ring buffer between resetting a page when
    a writer goes to another page, and the reader.
 
  - Fix ftrace accounting bug when function hooks are added at
    boot up before the weak functions are set to "disabled".
 
  - Fix bug that freed a user allocated snapshot buffer when
    enabling a tracer.
 
  - Fix possible recursive locks in osnoise tracer
 
  - Fix recursive locking direct functions
 
  - And other minor clean ups and fixes
