[for-next-3.11][PATCH 0/9] tracing: A few more fixes

[Steven Rostedt]

Oleg is working on fixing a very tight race between opening a event file
and deleting that event at the same time (both must be done as root).

I also found a bug while testing Oleg's patches which has to do with
a race with kprobes using the function tracer.

There's also a deadlock fix that was introduced with the previous fixes.

[for-next-3.11][PATCH 1/9] tracing: Introduce trace_create_cpu_file() and tracing_get_cpu()

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0001-tracing-Introduce-trace_create_cpu_file-and-tracing_.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4743 bytes --]

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

Every "file_operations" used by tracing_init_debugfs_percpu is buggy.
f_op->open/etc does:

	1. struct trace_cpu *tc = inode->i_private;
	   struct trace_array *tr = tc->tr;

	2. trace_array_get(tr) or fail;

	3. do_something(tc);

But tc (and tr) can be already freed before trace_array_get() is called.
And it doesn't matter whether this file is per-cpu or it was created by
init_tracer_debugfs(), free_percpu() or kfree() are equally bad.

Note that even 1. is not safe, the freed memory can be unmapped. But even
if it was safe trace_array_get() can wrongly succeed if we also race with
the next new_instance_create() which can re-allocate the same tr, or tc
was overwritten and ->tr points to the valid tr. In this case 3. uses the
freed/reused memory.

Add the new trivial helper, trace_create_cpu_file() which simply calls
trace_create_file() and encodes "cpu" in "struct inode". Another helper,
tracing_get_cpu() will be used to read cpu_nr-or-RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS.

The patch abuses ->i_cdev to encode the number, it is never used unless
the file is S_ISCHR(). But we could use something else, say, i_bytes or
even ->d_fsdata. In any case this hack is hidden inside these 2 helpers,
it would be trivial to change them if needed.

This patch only changes tracing_init_debugfs_percpu() to use the new
trace_create_cpu_file(), the next patches will change file_operations.

Note: tracing_get_cpu(inode) is always safe but you can't trust the
result unless trace_array_get() was called, without trace_types_lock
which acts as a barrier it can wrongly return RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS.

[for-next-3.11][PATCH 6/9] tracing: Change tracing_fops/snapshot_fops to rely on tracing_get_cpu()

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0006-tracing-Change-tracing_fops-snapshot_fops-to-rely-on.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 6308 bytes --]

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

tracing_open() and tracing_snapshot_open() are racy, the memory
inode->i_private points to can be already freed.

Convert these last users of "inode->i_private == trace_cpu" to
use "i_private = trace_array" and rely on tracing_get_cpu().

v2: incorporate the fix from Steven, tracing_release() must not
    blindly dereference file->private_data unless we know that
    the file was opened for reading.

[for-next-3.11][PATCH 7/9] tracing: Kill trace_cpu struct/members

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0007-tracing-Kill-trace_cpu-struct-members.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3201 bytes --]

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

After the previous changes trace_array_cpu->trace_cpu and
trace_array->trace_cpu becomes write-only. Remove these members
and kill "struct trace_cpu" as well.

As a side effect this also removes memset(per_cpu_memory, 0).
It was not needed, alloc_percpu() returns zero-filled memory.

[for-next-3.11][PATCH 8/9] ftrace: Add check for NULL regs if ops has SAVE_REGS set

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0008-ftrace-Add-check-for-NULL-regs-if-ops-has-SAVE_REGS-.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2985 bytes --]

From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

If a ftrace ops is registered with the SAVE_REGS flag set, and there's
already a ops registered to one of its functions but without the
SAVE_REGS flag, there's a small race window where the SAVE_REGS ops gets
added to the list of callbacks to call for that function before the
callback trampoline gets set to save the regs.

The problem is, the function is not currently saving regs, which opens
a small race window where the ops that is expecting regs to be passed
to it, wont. This can cause a crash if the callback were to reference
the regs, as the SAVE_REGS guarantees that regs will be set.

To fix this, we add a check in the loop case where it checks if the ops
has the SAVE_REGS flag set, and if so, it will ignore it if regs is
not set.

[for-next-3.11][PATCH 9/9] tracing: Remove locking trace_types_lock from tracing_reset_all_online_cpus()

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0009-tracing-Remove-locking-trace_types_lock-from-tracing.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1782 bytes --]

From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Commit a82274151af "tracing: Protect ftrace_trace_arrays list in trace_events.c"
added taking the trace_types_lock mutex in trace_events.c as there were
several locations that needed it for protection. Unfortunately, it also
encapsulated a call to tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() which also takes
the trace_types_lock, causing a deadlock.

This happens when a module has tracepoints and has been traced. When the
module is removed, the trace events module notifier will grab the
trace_types_lock, do a bunch of clean ups, and also clears the buffer
by calling tracing_reset_all_online_cpus. This doesn't happen often
which explains why it wasn't caught right away.

Commit a82274151af was marked for stable, which means this must be
sent to stable too.
