Most of the syscalls metadata processing is done from arch.
But these operations are mostly generic accross archs. Especially now
that we have a common variable name that expresses the number of
syscalls supported by an arch: NR_syscalls, the only remaining bits
that need to reside in arch is the syscall nr to addr translation.

v2: Compare syscalls symbols only after the "sys" prefix so that we
    avoid spurious mismatches with archs that have syscalls wrappers,
    in which case syscalls symbols have "SyS" prefixed aliases.

In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return
from function code, we would like to detect that.

An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the
function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested
when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for
this purpose.

This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack
frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit.

There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a
few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the
return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and
not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go
to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function
graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do
this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function
was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes.

This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was.

This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch
specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate
the new prototype.

Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace.
This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be
used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

After upgrading from gcc 4.2.2 to 4.4.0, the function graph tracer broke.
Investigating, I found that in the asm that replaces the return value,
gcc was using the same register for the old value as it was for the
new value.

	mov	(addr), old
	mov	new, (addr)

But if old and new are the same register, we clobber new with old!
I first thought this was a bug in gcc 4.4.0 and reported it:

  http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40132

Andrew Pinski responded (quickly), saying that it was correct gcc behavior
and the code needed to denote old as an "early clobber".

Instead of "=r"(old), we need "=&r"(old).

Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.

Impact: fix to prevent NMI lockup

If the page fault handler produces a WARN_ON in the modifying of
text, and the system is setup to have a high frequency of NMIs,
we can lock up the system on a failure to modify code.

The modifying of code with NMIs allows all NMIs to modify the code
if it is about to run. This prevents a modifier on one CPU from
modifying code running in NMI context on another CPU. The modifying
is done through stop_machine, so only NMIs must be considered.

But if the write causes the page fault handler to produce a warning,
the print can slow it down enough that as soon as it is done
it will take another NMI before going back to the process context.
The new NMI will perform the write again causing another print and
this will hang the box.

This patch turns off the writing as soon as a failure is detected
and does not wait for it to be turned off by the process context.
This will keep NMIs from getting stuck in this back and forth
of print outs.

Impact: keep kernel text read only

Because dynamic ftrace converts the calls to mcount into and out of
nops at run time, we needed to always keep the kernel text writable.

But this defeats the point of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA. This patch converts
the kernel code to writable before ftrace modifies the text, and converts
it back to read only afterward.

The kernel text is converted to read/write, stop_machine is called to
modify the code, then the kernel text is converted back to read only.

The original version used SYSTEM_STATE to determine when it was OK
or not to change the code to rw or ro. Andrew Morton pointed out that
using SYSTEM_STATE is a bad idea since there is no guarantee to what
its state will actually be.

Instead, I moved the check into the set_kernel_text_* functions
themselves, and use a local variable to determine when it is
OK to change the kernel text RW permissions.

Impact: prevent deadlock in NMI

The ring buffers are not yet totally lockless with writing to
the buffer. When a writer crosses a page, it grabs a per cpu spinlock
to protect against a reader. The spinlocks taken by a writer are not
to protect against other writers, since a writer can only write to
its own per cpu buffer. The spinlocks protect against readers that
can touch any cpu buffer. The writers are made to be reentrant
with the spinlocks disabling interrupts.

The problem arises when an NMI writes to the buffer, and that write
crosses a page boundary. If it grabs a spinlock, it can be racing
with another writer (since disabling interrupts does not protect
against NMIs) or with a reader on the same CPU. Luckily, most of the
users are not reentrant and protects against this issue. But if a
user of the ring buffer becomes reentrant (which is what the ring
buffers do allow), if the NMI also writes to the ring buffer then
we risk the chance of a deadlock.

This patch moves the ftrace_nmi_enter called by nmi_enter() to the
ring buffer code. It replaces the current ftrace_nmi_enter that is
used by arch specific code to arch_ftrace_nmi_enter and updates
the Kconfig to handle it.

When an NMI is called, it will set a per cpu variable in the ring buffer
code and will clear it when the NMI exits. If a write to the ring buffer
crosses page boundaries inside an NMI, a trylock is used on the spin
lock instead. If the spinlock fails to be acquired, then the entry
is discarded.

This bug appeared in the ftrace work in the RT tree, where event tracing
is reentrant. This workaround solved the deadlocks that appeared there.

The reason is that it is not safe to call printk from this function.

Impact: extend and enable the function graph tracer to 64-bit x86

This patch implements the support for function graph tracer under x86-64.
Both static and dynamic tracing are supported.

This causes some small CPP conditional asm on arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c I
wanted to use probe_kernel_read/write to make the return address
saving/patching code more generic but it causes tracing recursion.

That would be perhaps useful to implement a notrace version of these
function for other archs ports.

Note that arch/x86/process_64.c is not traced, as in X86-32. I first
thought __switch_to() was responsible of crashes during tracing because I
believed current task were changed inside but that's actually not the
case (actually yes, but not the "current" pointer).

So I will have to investigate to find the functions that harm here, to
enable tracing of the other functions inside (but there is no issue at
this time, while process_64.c stays out of -pg flags).

A little possible race condition is fixed inside this patch too. When the
tracer allocate a return stack dynamically, the current depth is not
initialized before but after. An interrupt could occur at this time and,
after seeing that the return stack is allocated, the tracer could try to
trace it with a random uninitialized depth. It's a prevention, even if I
hadn't problems with it.

Impact: feature

This patch sets a C-like output for the function graph tracing.
For this aim, we now call two handler for each function: one on the entry
and one other on return. This way we can draw a well-ordered call stack.

The pid of the previous trace is loosely stored to be compared against
the one of the current trace to see if there were a context switch.

Without this little feature, the call tree would seem broken at
some locations.
We could use the sched_tracer to capture these sched_events but this
way of processing is much more simpler.

2 spaces have been chosen for indentation to fit the screen while deep
calls. The time of execution in nanosecs is printed just after closed
braces, it seems more easy this way to find the corresponding function.
If the time was printed as a first column, it would be not so easy to
find the corresponding function if it is called on a deep depth.

I plan to output the return value but on 32 bits CPU, the return value
can be 32 or 64, and its difficult to guess on which case we are.
I don't know what would be the better solution on X86-32: only print
eax (low-part) or even edx (high-part).

Actually it's thee same problem when a function return a 8 bits value, the
high part of eax could contain junk values...

Impact: cleanup

This patch changes the name of the "return function tracer" into
function-graph-tracer which is a more suitable name for a tracing
which makes one able to retrieve the ordered call stack during
the code flow.

Impact: use deeper function tracing depth safely

Some tests showed that function return tracing needed a more deeper depth
of function calls. But it could be unsafe to store these return addresses
to the stack.

So these arrays will now be allocated dynamically into task_struct of current
only when the tracer is activated.

Typical scheme when tracer is activated:
- allocate a return stack for each task in global list.
- fork: allocate the return stack for the newly created task
- exit: free return stack of current
- idle init: same as fork

I chose a default depth of 50. I don't have overruns anymore.

Impact: help to find the better depth of trace

We decided to arbitrary define the depth of function return trace as
"20". Perhaps this is not enough. To help finding an optimal depth, we
measure now the overrun: the number of functions that have been missed
for the current thread. By default this is not displayed, we have to
do set a particular flag on the return tracer: echo overrun >
/debug/tracing/trace_options And the overrun will be printed on the
right.

As the trace shows below, the current 20 depth is not enough.

This patch adds the support for dynamic tracing on the function return tracer.
The whole difference with normal dynamic function tracing is that we don't need
to hook on a particular callback. The only pro that we want is to nop or set
dynamically the calls to ftrace_caller (which is ftrace_return_caller here).

Some security checks ensure that we are not trying to launch dynamic tracing for
return tracing while normal function tracing is already running.

An example of trace with getnstimeofday set as a filter:

ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (2283 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1396 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1382 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1825 ns)

Impact: fix possible race condition in ftrace function return tracer

This fixes a possible race condition if index incrementation
is not immediately flushed in memory.

Thanks for Andi Kleen and Steven Rostedt for pointing out this issue
and give me this solution.
