2025-07-28rv: Adjust monitor dependenciesGabriele Monaco
RV monitors relying on the preemptirqs tracepoints are set as dependent on PREEMPT_TRACER and IRQSOFF_TRACER. In fact, those configurations do enable the tracepoints but are not the minimal configurations enabling them, which are TRACE_PREEMPT_TOGGLE and TRACE_IRQFLAGS (not selectable manually). Set TRACE_PREEMPT_TOGGLE and TRACE_IRQFLAGS as dependencies for monitors.

2025-07-28rv: Use strings in da monitors tracepointsGabriele Monaco
Using DA monitors tracepoints with KASAN enabled triggers the following warning: BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in do_trace_event_raw_event_event_da_monitor+0xd6/0x1a0 Read of size 32 at addr ffffffffaada8980 by task ... Call Trace: <TASK> [...] do_trace_event_raw_event_event_da_monitor+0xd6/0x1a0 ? __pfx_do_trace_event_raw_event_event_da_monitor+0x10/0x10 ? trace_event_sncid+0x83/0x200 trace_event_sncid+0x163/0x200 [...] The buggy address belongs to the variable: automaton_snep+0x4e0/0x5e0 This is caused by the tracepoints reading 32 bytes __array instead of __string from the automata definition. Such strings are literals and reading 32 bytes ends up in out of bound memory accesses (e.g. the next automaton's data in this case). The error is harmless as, while printing the string, we stop at the null terminator, but it should still be fixed. Use the __string facilities while defining the tracepoints to avoid reading out of bound memory.

2025-07-28rv: Fix wrong type cast in reactors_show() and monitor_reactor_show()Nam Cao
Argument 'p' of reactors_show() and monitor_reactor_show() is not a pointer to struct rv_reactor, it is actually a pointer to the list_head inside struct rv_reactor. Therefore it's wrong to cast 'p' to struct rv_reactor *. This wrong type cast has been there since the beginning. But it still worked because the list_head was the first field in struct rv_reactor_def. This is no longer true since commit 3d3c376118b5 ("rv: Merge struct rv_reactor_def into struct rv_reactor") moved the list_head, and this wrong type cast became a functional problem.

2025-07-25rv: Remove rv_reactor's reference counterNam Cao
rv_reactor has a reference counter to ensure it is not removed while monitors are still using it. However, this is futile, as __exit functions are not expected to fail and will proceed normally despite rv_unregister_reactor() returning an error. At the moment, reactors do not support being built as modules, therefore they are never removed and the reference counters are not necessary. If we support building RV reactors as modules in the future, kernel module's centralized facilities such as try_module_get(), module_put() or MODULE_SOFTDEP should be used instead of this custom implementation. Remove this reference counter.

This is fortunately not a real memory leak problem as rv_unregister_reactor() is never called. Simplify and merge rv_reactor_def into rv_reactor.

2025-07-24verification/rvgen: Organise Kconfig entries for nested monitorsGabriele Monaco
The current behaviour of rvgen when running with the -a option is to append the necessary lines at the end of the configuration for Kconfig, Makefile and tracepoints. This is not always the desired behaviour in case of nested monitors: while tracepoints are not affected by nesting and the Makefile's only requirement is that the parent monitor is built before its children, in the Kconfig it is better to have children defined right after their parent, otherwise the result has wrong indentation: [*] foo_parent monitor [*] foo_child1 monitor [*] foo_child2 monitor [*] bar_parent monitor [*] bar_child1 monitor [*] bar_child2 monitor [*] foo_child3 monitor [*] foo_child4 monitor Adapt rvgen to look for a different marker for nested monitors in the Kconfig file and append the line right after the last sibling, instead of the last monitor. Also add the marker when creating a new parent monitor.

2025-07-24tracing: Have eprobes handle arraysSteven Rostedt
eprobes are dynamic events that can read other events using their fields to create new events. Currently it doesn't work with arrays. When the new event field is attached to the old event field, it looks at the size of the field to determine what type of field the new field should be. For 1 byte fields it's a char, for 2 bytes, it's a short and for 4 bytes it's an integer. For all other sizes it just defaults to "long". This also reads the contents of the field for such cases. For arrays that are bigger than the size of long, return the value of the address of the content itself. This will allow eprobes to read other values in the array of the old event. This is useful when raw_syscalls is enabled but the syscall events are not. The syscall events are created from the raw_syscalls as they have an array of "args" that holds the 6 long words passed to the syscall entry point. To read the value of "filename" from sys_openat, the eprobe could attach to the raw_syscall and read the second value. It can then even be passed to a synthetic event and converted back to another eprobe to get the value of "filename" after it has been read by the kernel during the system call: [ Create an eprobe called "sys" and attach it to sys_enter. Read the id of the system call and the second argument ] # echo 'e:sys raw_syscalls.sys_enter nr=$id:u32 arg2=+8($args):u64' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events [ Create a synthetic event "path" that will hold the address of the sys_openat filename. This is on a 64bit machine, so make it 64 bits ] # echo 's:path u64 file;' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events [ Add a histogram to the eprobe/sys which tiggers if the "nr" field is 257 (sys_openat), and save the filename in the "file" variable. ] # echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:file=arg2 if nr == 257' > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/eprobes/sys/trigger [ Attach a histogram to sys_exit event that triggers the "path" synthetic event and records the "filename" that was passed from the sys eprobe. ] # echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:f=$file:onmatch(eprobes.sys).trace(path,$f)' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_exit/trigger [ Create another eprobe that dereferences the "file" field as a user space string and displays it. ] # echo 'e:open synthetic.path file=+0($file):ustring' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/dynamic_events # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/eprobes/open/enable # cat trace_pipe cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.521912: open: (synthetic.path) file="/etc/ld.so.cache" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.521934: open: (synthetic.path) file="/etc/ld.so.cache" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522065: open: (synthetic.path) file="/etc/ld.so.cache" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522080: open: (synthetic.path) file="/etc/ld.so.cache" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522296: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522319: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6" less-1143 [005] ...5. 799.522327: open: (synthetic.path) file="/etc/ld.so.cache" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522333: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522348: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6" less-1143 [005] ...5. 799.522349: open: (synthetic.path) file="/etc/ld.so.cache" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522363: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6" less-1143 [005] ...5. 799.522477: open: (synthetic.path) file="/etc/ld.so.cache" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522489: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6" less-1143 [005] ...5. 799.522492: open: (synthetic.path) file="/etc/ld.so.cache" less-1143 [005] ...5. 799.522720: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.6" less-1143 [005] ...5. 799.522744: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.6" less-1143 [005] ...5. 799.522759: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtinfo.so.6" cat-1142 [003] ...5. 799.522850: open: (synthetic.path) file="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250723124202.4f7475be@batman.local.home/ Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

2025-07-23tracing: Deprecate auto-mounting tracefs in debugfsSteven Rostedt
In January 2015, tracefs was created to allow access to the tracing infrastructure without needing to compile in debugfs. When tracefs is configured, the directory /sys/kernel/tracing will exist and tooling is expected to use that path to access the tracing infrastructure. To allow backward compatibility, when debugfs is mounted, it would automount tracefs in its "tracing" directory so that tooling that had hard coded /sys/kernel/debug/tracing would still work. It has been over 10 years since the new interface was introduced, and all tooling should now be using it.

2025-07-22tracing: Remove redundant config HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORDSteven Rostedt
Ftrace is tightly coupled with architecture specific code because it requires the use of trampolines written in assembly. This means that when a new feature or optimization is made, it must be done for all architectures. To simplify the approach, CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_* configs are added to denote which architecture has the new enhancement so that other architectures can still function until they too have been updated. The CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT was added to help simplify the DYNAMIC_FTRACE work, but now every architecture that implements DYNAMIC_FTRACE also has HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT set too, making it redundant with the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE. Remove the HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT config and use DYNAMIC_FTRACE directly where applicable.

2025-07-22tracing: Remove EVENT_FILE_FL_SOFT_MODE flagSteven Rostedt
When soft disabling of trace events was first created, it needed to have a way to know if a file had a user that was using it with soft disabled (for triggers that need to enable or disable events from a context that can not really enable or disable the event, it would set SOFT_DISABLED to state it is disabled). The flag SOFT_MODE was used to denote that an event had a user that would enable or disable it via the SOFT_DISABLED flag. Commit 1cf4c0732db3c ("tracing: Modify soft-mode only if there's no other referrer") fixed a bug where if two users were using the SOFT_DISABLED flag the accounting would get messed up as the SOFT_MODE flag could only handle one user. That commit added the sm_ref counter which kept track of how many users were using the event in "soft mode". This made the SOFT_MODE flag redundant as it should only be set if the sm_ref counter is non zero. Remove the SOFT_MODE flag and just use the sm_ref counter to know the event is in soft mode or not. This makes the code a bit simpler.

2025-07-22ftrace: Make DYNAMIC_FTRACE always enabled for architectures that support itSteven Rostedt
ftrace has two flavors: 1) static: Where every function always calls the ftrace trampoline 2) dynamic: Where each function has nops that can be changed on demand to jump to the ftrace trampoline when needed. The static flavor has very high performance overhead and was only created to make it easier for architectures to implement the dynamic flavor. An architecture developer can first implement the static ftrace to make sure the trampolines work before working on the more complicated dynamic aspect of ftrace. Once the architecture can support dynamic ftrace, there's no reason to continue to support the static flavor. In fact, the static flavor tends to bitrot and bugs start to appear in them. Remove the prompt to pick DYNAMIC_FTRACE and simply enable it if the architecture supports it.

2025-07-22ring-buffer: Remove ring_buffer_read_prepare_sync()Steven Rostedt
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. The commit 72c9ddfd4c5bf ("ring-buffer: Make non-consuming read less expensive with lots of cpus.") separated ring_buffer_read_start into ring_buffer_read_prepare(), ring_buffer_read_sync() and then ring_buffer_read_start() to allow each of the per CPU buffers to be prepared, call the read_buffer_read_sync() once, and then the ring_buffer_read_start() for each of the CPUs which made things much faster. The commit 1039221cc278 ("ring-buffer: Do not disable recording when there is an iterator") removed the requirement of disabling the recording of the ring buffer in order to iterate it, but it did not remove the synchronization that was happening that was required to wait for all the buffers to have no more writers. It's now OK for the buffers to have writers and no synchronization is needed. Remove the synchronization and put back the interface for the ring buffer iterator back before commit 72c9ddfd4c5bf was applied.

2025-07-19tracing: Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace eventSteven Rostedt
When a module is loaded, it adds trace events defined by the module. It may also need to modify the modules trace printk formats to replace enum names with their values. If two modules are loaded at the same time, the adding of the event to the ftrace_events list can corrupt the walking of the list in the code that is modifying the printk format strings and crash the kernel. The addition of the event should take the trace_event_sem for write while it adds the new event. Also add a lockdep_assert_held() on that semaphore in __trace_add_event_dirs() as it iterates the list.

Patch series "relayfs: misc changes", v5. The series mostly focuses on the error counters which helps every user debug their own kernel module. This patch (of 5): prev_padding represents the unused space of certain subbuffer. If the content of a call of relay_write() exceeds the limit of the remainder of this subbuffer, it will skip storing in the rest space and record the start point as buf->prev_padding in relay_switch_subbuf(). Since the buf is a per-cpu big buffer, the point of prev_padding as a global value for the whole buffer instead of a single subbuffer (whose padding info is stored in buf->padding[]) seems meaningless from the real use cases, so we don't bother to record it any more.

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`.
