tracing cleanups for v6.17:
- Remove unneeded goto out statements
Over time, the logic was restructured but left a "goto out" where the
out label simply did a "return ret;". Instead of jumping to this out
label, simply return immediately and remove the out label.
- Add guard(ring_buffer_nest)
Some calls to the tracing ring buffer can happen when the ring buffer is
already being written to at the same context (for example, a
trace_printk() in between a ring_buffer_lock_reserve() and a
ring_buffer_unlock_commit()).
In order to not trigger the recursion detection, these functions use
ring_buffer_nest_start() and ring_buffer_nest_end(). Create a guard() for
these functions so that their use cases can be simplified and not need to
use goto for the release.
- Clean up the tracing code with guard() and __free() logic
There were several locations that were prime candidates for using guard()
and __free() helpers. Switch them over to use them.
- Fix output of function argument traces for unsigned int values
The function tracer with "func-args" option set will record up to 6 argument
registers and then use BTF to format them for human consumption when the
trace file is read. There's several arguments that are "unsigned long" and
even "unsigned int" that are either and address or a mask. It is easier to
understand if they were printed using hexadecimal instead of decimal.
The old method just printed all non-pointer values as signed integers,
which made it even worse for unsigned integers.
For instance, instead of:
__local_bh_disable_ip(ip=-2127311112, cnt=256) <-handle_softirqs
Show:
__local_bh_disable_ip(ip=0xffffffff8133cef8, cnt=0x100) <-handle_softirqs

ring-buffer: Remove ring_buffer_read_prepare_sync()
When the ring buffer was first introduced, reading the non-consuming "trace" file required disabling the writing of the ring buffer. To make sure the writing was fully disabled before iterating the buffer with a non-consuming read, it would set the disable flag of the buffer and then call an RCU synchronization to make sure all the buffers were synchronized. The function ring_buffer_read_start() originally would initialize the iterator and call an RCU synchronization, but this was for each individual per CPU buffer where this would get called many times on a machine with many CPUs before the trace file could be read.

tracing: ring_buffer: Rewind persistent ring buffer on reboot
Rewind persistent ring buffer pages which have been read in the previous boot. Those pages are highly possible to be lost before writing it to the disk if the previous kernel crashed. In this case, the trace data is kept on the persistent ring buffer, but it can not be read because its commit size has been reset after read. This skips clearing the commit size of each sub-buffer and recover it after reboot. Note: If you read the previous boot data via trace_pipe, that is not accessible in that time. But reboot without clearing (or reusing) the read data, the read data is recovered again in the next boot. Thus, when you read the previous boot data, clear it by `echo > trace`.

ring-buffer changes for v6.16:
- Allow the persistent ring buffer to be memory mapped
In the last merge window there was issues with the implementation of
mapping the persistent ring buffer because it was assumed that the
persistent memory was just physical memory without being part of the
kernel virtual address space. But this was incorrect and the persistent
ring buffer can be mapped the same way as the allocated ring buffer is
mapped.
The meta data for the persistent ring buffer is different than the normal
ring buffer and the organization of mapping it to user space is a little
different. Make the updates needed to the meta data to allow the
persistent ring buffer to be mapped to user space.
- Fix cpus_read_lock() with buffer->mutex and cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
Mapping the ring buffer to user space uses the cpu_buffer->mapping_lock.
The buffer->mutex can be taken when the mapping_lock is held, giving the
locking order of: cpu_buffer->mapping_lock -->> buffer->mutex. But there
also exists the ordering:
buffer->mutex -->> cpus_read_lock()
mm->mmap_lock -->> cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
cpus_read_lock() -->> mm->mmap_lock
causing a circular chain of:
cpu_buffer->mapping_lock -> buffer->mutex -->> cpus_read_lock() -->>
mm->mmap_lock -->> cpu_buffer->mapping_lock
By moving the cpus_read_lock() outside the buffer->mutex where:
cpus_read_lock() -->> buffer->mutex, breaks the deadlock chain.
- Do not trigger WARN_ON() for commit overrun
When the ring buffer is user space mapped and there's a "commit overrun"
(where an interrupt preempted an event, and then added so many events it
filled the buffer having to drop events when it hit the preempted event)
a WARN_ON() was triggered if this was read via a memory mapped buffer.
This is due to "missed events" being non zero when the reader page ended
up with the commit page. The idea was, if the writer is on the reader page,
there's only one page that has been written to and there should be no
missed events. But if a commit overrun is done where the writer is off the
commit page and looped around to the commit page causing missed events, it
is possible that the reader page is the commit page with missed events.
Instead of triggering a WARN_ON() when the reader page is the commit page
with missed events, trigger it when the reader page is the tail_page with
missed events. That's because the writer is always on the tail_page if
an event was interrupted (which holds the commit event) and continues off
the commit page.
- Reset the persistent buffer if it is fully consumed
On boot up, if the user fully consumes the last boot buffer of the
persistent buffer, if it reboots without enabling it, there will still be
events in the buffer which can cause confusion. Instead, reset the buffer
when it is fully consumed, so that the data is not read again.
- Clean up some goto out jumps
There's a few cases that the code jumps to the "out:" label that simply
returns a value. There used to be more work done at those labels but now
that they simply return a value use a return instead of jumping to a
label.
- Use guard() to simplify some of the code
Add guard() around some locking instead of jumping to a label to do the
unlocking.
- Use free() to simplify some of the code
Use free(kfree) on variables that will get freed on error and use
return_ptr() to return the variable when its not freed. There's one
instance where free(kfree) simplifies the code on a temp variable that was
allocated just for the function use.

tracing updates for v6.16:
- Have module addresses get updated in the persistent ring buffer The addresses of the modules from the previous boot are saved in the persistent ring buffer. If the same modules are loaded and an address is in the old buffer points to an address that was both saved in the persistent ring buffer and is loaded in memory, shift the address to point to the address that is loaded in memory in the trace event. - Print function names for irqs off and preempt off callsites When ignoring the print fmt of a trace event and just printing the fields directly, have the fields for preempt off and irqs off events still show the function name (via kallsyms) instead of just showing the raw address. - Clean ups of the histogram code The histogram functions saved over 800 bytes on the stack to process events as they come in. Instead, create per-cpu buffers that can hold this information and have a separate location for each context level (thread, softirq, IRQ and NMI). Also add some more comments to the code. - Add "common_comm" field for histograms Add "common_comm" that uses the current->comm as a field in an event histogram and acts like any of the other fields of the event. - Show "subops" in the enabled_functions file When the function graph infrastructure is used, a subsystem has a "subops" that it attaches its callback function to. Instead of the enabled_functions just showing a function calling the function that calls the subops functions, also show the subops functions that will get called for that function too. - Add "copy_trace_marker" option to instances There are cases where an instance is created for tooling to write into, but the old tooling has the top level instance hardcoded into the application. New tools want to consume the data from an instance and not the top level buffer. By adding a copy_trace_marker option, whenever the top instance trace_marker is written into, a copy of it is also written into the instance with this option set. This allows new tools to read what old tools are writing into the top buffer. If this option is cleared by the top instance, then what is written into the trace_marker is not written into the top instance. This is a way to redirect the trace_marker writes into another instance. - Have tracepoints created by DECLARE_TRACE() use trace_<name>_tp() If a tracepoint is created by DECLARE_TRACE() instead of TRACE_EVENT(), then it will not be exposed via tracefs. Currently there's no way to differentiate in the kernel the tracepoint functions between those that are exposed via tracefs or not. A calling convention has been made manually to append a "_tp" prefix for events created by DECLARE_TRACE(). Instead of doing this manually, force it so that all DECLARE_TRACE() events have this notation. - Use __string() for task->comm in some sched events Instead of hardcoding the comm to be TASK_COMM_LEN in some of the scheduler events use __string() which makes it dynamic. Note, if these events are parsed by user space it they may break, and the event may have to be converted back to the hardcoded size. - Have function graph "depth" be unsigned to the user Internally to the kernel, the "depth" field of the function graph event is signed due to -1 being used for end of boundary. What actually gets recorded in the event itself is zero or positive. Reflect this to user space by showing "depth" as unsigned int and be consistent across all events. - Allow an arbitrary long CPU string to osnoise_cpus_write() The filtering of which CPUs to write to can exceed 256 bytes. If a machine has 256 CPUs, and the filter is to filter every other CPU, the write would take a string larger than 256 bytes. Instead of using a fixed size buffer on the stack that is 256 bytes, allocate it to handle what is passed in. - Stop having ftrace check the per-cpu data "disabled" flag The "disabled" flag in the data structure passed to most ftrace functions is checked to know if tracing has been disabled or not. This flag was added back in 2008 before the ring buffer had its own way to disable tracing. The "disable" flag is now not always set when needed, and the ring buffer flag should be used in all locations where the disabled is needed. Since the "disable" flag is redundant and incorrect, stop using it. Fix up some locations that use the "disable" flag to use the ring buffer info. - Use a new tracer_tracing_disable/enable() instead of data->disable flag There's a few cases that set the data->disable flag to stop tracing, but this flag is not consistently used. It is also an on/off switch where if a function set it and calls another function that sets it, the called function may incorrectly enable it. Use a new trace_tracing_disable() and tracer_tracing_enable() that uses a counter and can be nested. These use the ring buffer flags which are always checked making the disabling more consistent. - Save the trace clock in the persistent ring buffer Save what clock was used for tracing in the persistent ring buffer and set it back to that clock after a reboot. - Remove unused reference to a per CPU data pointer in mmiotrace functions - Remove unused buffer_page field from trace_array_cpu structure - Remove more strncpy() instances - Other minor clean ups and fixes -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYKADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCaDhiqRQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qkheAQDpyRHoXF1AIoEqyahDax8f3vpZQeCH B/mn+YJmU1wuVgEA7AFALov5SHKv4IzoARz68GXtR0jGhP5D8uebUhUqDAQ= =WmFG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Have module addresses get updated in the persistent ring buffer The addresses of the modules from the previous boot are saved in the persistent ring buffer.

ring-buffer: Simplify functions with __free(kfree) to free allocations
The function rb_allocate_pages() allocates cpu_buffer and on error needs to free it. It has a single return. Use __free(kfree) and return directly on errors and have the return use return_ptr(cpu_buffer). The function alloc_buffer() allocates buffer and on error needs to free it. It has a single return. Use __free(kfree) and return directly on errors and have the return use return_ptr(buffer). The function __rb_map_vma() allocates a temporary array "pages". Have it use __free() and not worry about freeing it when returning.

ring-buffer: Simplify ring_buffer_read_page() with guard()
The function ring_buffer_read_page() had two gotos. One was simply returning "ret" and the other was unlocking the reader_lock. There's no reason to use goto to simply return the "ret" variable. Instead just return the value. The jump to the unlocking of the reader_lock can be replaced by guard(raw_spinlock_irqsave)(&cpu_buffer->reader_lock). With these two changes the "ret" variable is no longer used and can be removed. The return value on non-error is what was read and is stored in the "read" variable.

ring-buffer: Remove jump to out label in ring_buffer_swap_cpu()
The function ring_buffer_swap_cpu() has a bunch of jumps to the label out
that simply returns "ret". There's no reason to jump to a label that
simply returns a value. Just return directly from there.
This goes back to almost the beginning when commit

ring-buffer: Removed unnecessary if() goto out where out is the next line
In the function ring_buffer_discard_commit() there's an if statement that
jumps to the next line:
if (rb_try_to_discard(cpu_buffer, event))
goto out;
out:
This was caused by the change that modified the way timestamps were taken
in interrupt context, and removed the code between the if statement and
the goto, but failed to update the conditional logic.

ring-buffer: Allow reserve_mem persistent ring buffers to be mmapped
When the persistent ring buffer is created from the memory returned by reserve_mem there is nothing prohibiting it to be memory mapped to user space. The memory is the same as the pages allocated by alloc_page(). The way the memory is managed by the ring buffer code is slightly different though and needs to be addressed. The persistent memory uses the page->id for its own purpose where as the user mmap buffer currently uses that for the subbuf array mapped to user space. If the buffer is a persistent buffer, use the page index into that buffer as the identifier instead of the page->id. That is, the page->id for a persistent buffer, represents the order of the buffer is in the link list. ->id == 0 means it is the reader page. When a reader page is swapped, the new reader page's ->id gets zero, and the old reader page gets the ->id of the page that it swapped with. The user space mapping has the ->id is the index of where it was mapped in user space and does not change while it is mapped. Since the persistent buffer is fixed in its location, the index of where a page is in the memory range can be used as the "id" to put in the meta page array, and it can be mapped in the same order to user space as it is in the persistent memory. A new rb_page_id() helper function is used to get and set the id depending on if the page is a normal memory allocated buffer or a physical memory mapped buffer.

ring-buffer: Do not trigger WARN_ON() due to a commit_overrun
When reading a memory mapped buffer the reader page is just swapped out
with the last page written in the write buffer. If the reader page is the
same as the commit buffer (the buffer that is currently being written to)
it was assumed that it should never have missed events. If it does, it
triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE().
But there just happens to be one scenario where this can legitimately
happen. That is on a commit_overrun. A commit overrun is when an interrupt
preempts an event being written to the buffer and then the interrupt adds
so many new events that it fills and wraps the buffer back to the commit.
Any new events would then be dropped and be reported as "missed_events".
In this case, the next page to read is the commit buffer and after the
swap of the reader page, the reader page will be the commit buffer, but
this time there will be missed events and this triggers the following
warning:

The above was triggered by running on a kernel with both lockdep and KASAN
as well as kmemleak enabled and executing the following command:
# perf record -o perf-test.dat -a -- trace-cmd record --nosplice -e all -p function hackbench 50
With perf interjecting a lot of interrupts and trace-cmd enabling all
events as well as function tracing, with lockdep, KASAN and kmemleak
enabled, it could cause an interrupt preempting an event being written to
add enough events to wrap the buffer. trace-cmd was modified to have
--nosplice use mmap instead of reading the buffer.
The way to differentiate this case from the normal case of there only
being one page written to where the swap of the reader page received that
one page (which is the commit page), check if the tail page is on the
reader page. The difference between the commit page and the tail page is
that the tail page is where new writes go to, and the commit page holds
the first write that hasn't been committed yet. In the case of an
interrupt preempting the write of an event and filling the buffer, it
would move the tail page but not the commit page.
Have the warning only trigger if the tail page is also on the reader page,
and also print out the number of events dropped by a commit overrun as
that can not yet be safely added to the page so that the reader can see
there were events dropped.

The issue is that cpus_read_lock() is taken within buffer->mutex. The
memory mapped pages are taken with the mmap_lock held. The buffer->mutex
is taken within the cpu_buffer->mapping_lock. There's quite a chain with
all these locks, where the deadlock can be fixed by moving the
cpus_read_lock() outside the taking of the buffer->mutex.

ring-buffer: Fix persistent buffer when commit page is the reader page
The ring buffer is made up of sub buffers (sometimes called pages as they
are by default PAGE_SIZE). It has the following "pages":
"tail page" - this is the page that the next write will write to
"head page" - this is the page that the reader will swap the reader page with.
"reader page" - This belongs to the reader, where it will swap the head
page from the ring buffer so that the reader does not
race with the writer.
The writer may end up on the "reader page" if the ring buffer hasn't
written more than one page, where the "tail page" and the "head page" are
the same.
The persistent ring buffer has meta data that points to where these pages
exist so on reboot it can re-create the pointers to the cpu_buffer
descriptor. But when the commit page is on the reader page, the logic is
incorrect.
The check to see if the commit page is on the reader page checked if the
head page was the reader page, which would never happen, as the head page
is always in the ring buffer. The correct check would be to test if the
commit page is on the reader page. If that's the case, then it can exit
out early as the commit page is only on the reader page when there's only
one page of data in the buffer. There's no reason to iterate the ring
buffer pages to find the "commit page" as it is already found.
To trigger this bug:
# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_mapped/events/syscalls/sys_enter_fchownat/enable
# touch /tmp/x
# chown sshd /tmp/x
# reboot
On boot up, the dmesg will have:
Ring buffer meta [0] is from previous boot!
Ring buffer meta [1] is from previous boot!
Ring buffer meta [2] is from previous boot!
Ring buffer meta [3] is from previous boot!
Ring buffer meta [4] commit page not found
Ring buffer meta [5] is from previous boot!
Ring buffer meta [6] is from previous boot!
Ring buffer meta [7] is from previous boot!
Where the buffer on CPU 4 had a "commit page not found" error and that
buffer is cleared and reset causing the output to be empty and the data lost.
When it works correctly, it has:

ring-buffer: Add ring_buffer_record_is_on_cpu()
Add the function ring_buffer_record_is_on_cpu() that returns true if the ring buffer for a give CPU is writable and false otherwise. Also add tracer_tracing_is_on_cpu() to return if the ring buffer for a given CPU is writeable for a given trace_array.

Persistent buffer cleanups and simplifications for v6.15:
It was mistaken that the physical memory returned from "reserve_mem" had to
be vmap()'d to get to it from a virtual address. But reserve_mem already
maps the memory to the virtual address of the kernel so a simple
phys_to_virt() can be used to get to the virtual address from the physical
memory returned by "reserve_mem". With this new found knowledge, the
code can be cleaned up and simplified.
- Enforce that the persistent memory is page aligned
As the buffers using the persistent memory are all going to be
mapped via pages, make sure that the memory given to the tracing
infrastructure is page aligned. If it is not, it will print a warning
and fail to map the buffer.
- Use phys_to_virt() to get the virtual address from reserve_mem
Instead of calling vmap() on the physical memory returned from
"reserve_mem", use phys_to_virt() instead.
As the memory returned by "memmap" or any other means where a physical
address is given to the tracing infrastructure, it still needs to
be vmap(). Since this memory can never be returned back to the buddy
allocator nor should it ever be memmory mapped to user space, flag
this buffer and up the ref count. The ref count will keep it from
ever being freed, and the flag will prevent it from ever being memory
mapped to user space.
- Use vmap_page_range() for memmap virtual address mapping
For the memmap buffer, instead of allocating an array of struct pages,
assigning them to the contiguous phsycial memory and then passing that to
vmap(), use vmap_page_range() instead
- Replace flush_dcache_folio() with flush_kernel_vmap_range()
Instead of calling virt_to_folio() and passing that to
flush_dcache_folio(), just call flush_kernel_vmap_range() directly.
This also fixes a bug where if a subbuffer was bigger than PAGE_SIZE
only the PAGE_SIZE portion would be flushed.

ring-buffer: Use flush_kernel_vmap_range() over flush_dcache_folio()
Some architectures do not have data cache coherency between user and
kernel space. For these architectures, the cache needs to be flushed on
both the kernel and user addresses so that user space can see the updates
the kernel has made.
Instead of using flush_dcache_folio() and playing with virt_to_folio()
within the call to that function, use flush_kernel_vmap_range() which
takes the virtual address and does the work for those architectures that
need it.
This also fixes a bug where the flush of the reader page only flushed one
page. If the sub-buffer order is 1 or more, where the sub-buffer size
would be greater than a page, it would miss the rest of the sub-buffer
content, as the "reader page" is not just a page, but the size of a
sub-buffer.

This has a callback to be called for each module. This is needed for when tracing is started in the persistent buffer and the currently loaded modules need to be saved in the scratch area. - Expose the last boot information where the kernel and modules were loaded The last_boot_info file is updated to print out the addresses of where the kernel "_text" location was loaded from a previous boot, as well as where the modules are loaded. If the buffer is recording the current boot, it only prints "# Current" so that it does not expose the KASLR offset of the currently running kernel. - Allow the persistent ring buffer to be released (freed) To have this in production environments, where the kernel command line can not be changed easily, the ring buffer needs to be freed when it is not going to be used. The memory for the buffer will always be allocated at boot up, but if the system isn't going to enable tracing, the memory needs to be freed. Allow it to be freed and added back to the kernel memory pool. - Allow stack traces to print the function names in the persistent buffer Now that the modules are saved in the persistent ring buffer, if the same modules are loaded, the printing of the function names will examine the saved modules. If the module is found in the scratch area and is also loaded, then it will do the offset shift and use kallsyms to display the function name.

ring-buffer: Update pages_touched to reflect persistent buffer content
The pages_touched field represents the number of subbuffers in the ring
buffer that have content that can be read. This is used in accounting of
"dirty_pages" and "buffer_percent" to allow the user to wait for the
buffer to be filled to a certain amount before it reads the buffer in
blocking mode.
The persistent buffer never updated this value so it was set to zero, and
this accounting would take it as it had no content. This would cause user
space to wait for content even though there's enough content in the ring
buffer that satisfies the buffer_percent.

ring-buffer: Validate the persistent meta data subbuf array
The meta data for a mapped ring buffer contains an array of indexes of all
the subbuffers. The first entry is the reader page, and the rest of the
entries lay out the order of the subbuffers in how the ring buffer link
list is to be created.
The validator currently makes sure that all the entries are within the
range of 0 and nr_subbufs. But it does not check if there are any
duplicates.
While working on the ring buffer, I corrupted this array, where I added
duplicates. The validator did not catch it and created the ring buffer
link list on top of it. Luckily, the corruption was only that the reader
page was also in the writer path and only presented corrupted data but did
not crash the kernel. But if there were duplicates in the writer side,
then it could corrupt the ring buffer link list and cause a crash.
Create a bitmask array with the size of the number of subbuffers. Then
clear it. When walking through the subbuf array checking to see if the
entries are within the range, test if its bit is already set in the
subbuf_mask. If it is, then there is duplicates and fail the validation.
If not, set the corresponding bit and continue.

ring-buffer: Make reading page consistent with the code logic
In the loop of __rb_map_vma(), the 's' variable is calculated from the same logic that nr_pages is and they both come from nr_subbufs. But the relationship is not obvious and there's a WARN_ON_ONCE() around the 's' variable to make sure it never becomes equal to nr_subbufs within the loop. If that happens, then the code is buggy and needs to be fixed. The 'page' variable is calculated from cpu_buffer->subbuf_ids[s] which is an array of 'nr_subbufs' entries. If the code becomes buggy and 's' becomes equal to or greater than 'nr_subbufs' then this will be an out of bounds hit before the WARN_ON() is triggered and the code exiting safely. Make the 'page' initialization consistent with the code logic and assign it after the out of bounds check.

One relying on the current status of the commit / reader page (rb_per_cpu_empty()) and the other on the write and read counters (rb_num_of_entries() used in rb_get_reader_page()). with rb_num_of_entries(). This intends to ease later introduction of ring-buffer writers which are out of the kernel control and with whom, the only information available is through the meta-page counters.

Revert: "ring-buffer: Do not have boot mapped buffers hook to CPU hotplug"
A crash happened when testing cpu hotplug with respect to the memory mapped ring buffers. It was assumed that the hot plug code was adding a per CPU buffer that was already created that caused the crash. The real problem was due to ref counting and was fixed by commit |

ring-buffer: Limit time with disabled interrupts in rb_check_pages()
The function rb_check_pages() validates the integrity of a specified per-CPU tracing ring buffer. It does so by traversing the underlying linked list and checking its next and prev links. To guarantee that the list isn't modified during the check, a caller typically needs to take cpu_buffer->reader_lock. This prevents the check from running concurrently, for example, with a potential reader which can make the list temporarily inconsistent when swapping its old reader page into the buffer. A problem with this approach is that the time when interrupts are disabled is non-deterministic, dependent on the ring buffer size. This particularly affects PREEMPT_RT because the reader_lock is a raw spinlock which doesn't become sleepable on PREEMPT_RT kernels. Modify the check so it still attempts to traverse the entire list, but gives up the reader_lock between checking individual pages. Introduce for this purpose a new variable ring_buffer_per_cpu.cnt which is bumped any time the list is modified. The value is used by rb_check_pages() to detect such a change and restart the check.

ring-buffer: Fix reader locking when changing the sub buffer order
The function ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() updates each
ring_buffer_per_cpu and installs new sub buffers that match the requested
page order. This operation may be invoked concurrently with readers that
rely on some of the modified data, such as the head bit (RB_PAGE_HEAD), or
the ring_buffer_per_cpu.pages and reader_page pointers. However, no
exclusive access is acquired by ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set(). Modifying
the mentioned data while a reader also operates on them can then result in
incorrect memory access and various crashes.
Fix the problem by taking the reader_lock when updating a specific
ring_buffer_per_cpu in ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set().

ring-buffer: Do not have boot mapped buffers hook to CPU hotplug
The boot mapped ring buffer has its buffer mapped at a fixed location
found at boot up. It is not dynamic. It cannot grow or be expanded when
new CPUs come online.
Do not hook fixed memory mapped ring buffers to the CPU hotplug callback,
otherwise it can cause a crash when it tries to add the buffer to the
memory that is already fully occupied.

ring-buffer: Align meta-page to sub-buffers for improved TLB usage
Previously, the mapped ring-buffer layout caused misalignment between the meta-page and sub-buffers when the sub-buffer size was not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE. This prevented hardware with larger TLB entries from utilizing them effectively. Add a padding with the zero-page between the meta-page and sub-buffers. Also update the ring-buffer map_test to verify that padding.

ring-buffer: Add magic and struct size to boot up meta data
Add a magic number as well as save the struct size of the ring_buffer_meta structure in the meta data to also use as validation. Updating the magic number could be used to force a invalidation between kernel versions, and saving the structure size is also a good method to make sure the content is what is expected.

ring-buffer: Don't reset persistent ring-buffer meta saved addresses
The text and data address is saved in the meta data so that it can be used
to know the delta of the text and data addresses of the last boot compared
to the text and data addresses of the current boot. The delta is used to
convert function pointer entries in the ring buffer to something that can
be used by kallsyms (note this only works for built-in functions).
But the saved addresses get reset on boot up. If the buffer is not used
and there's another reboot, then the saved text and data addresses will be
of the last boot and not that of the boot that created the content in the
ring buffer.
To get an idea of the issue:

By not updating the saved text and data addresses in the meta data at
every boot up and only updating them when the buffer is reset, it
allows multiple boots to see the same data.
