The current code will truncate the ftrace files contents if O_APPEND
is not set and the file is opened in write mode. This is incorrect.
It should only truncate the file if O_TRUNC is set. Otherwise
if one of these files is opened by a C program with fopen "r+",
it will incorrectly truncate the file.

Many developers use "/debug/" or "/debugfs/" or "/sys/kernel/debug/"
directory name to mount debugfs filesystem for ftrace according to
./Documentation/tracers/ftrace.txt file.

And, three directory names(ex:/debug/, /debugfs/, /sys/kernel/debug/) is
existed in kernel source like ftrace, DRM, Wireless, Documentation,
Network[sky2]files to mount debugfs filesystem.

debugfs means debug filesystem for debugging easy to use by greg kroah

of debugfs filesystem.

I found that there is nothing to protect event_hash in
ftrace_find_event(). Rcu protects the event hashlist
but not the event itself while we use it after its extraction
through ftrace_find_event().

This lack of a proper locking in this spot opens a race
window between any event dereferencing and module removal.

Eg:

--Task A--

print_trace_line(trace) {
  event = find_ftrace_event(trace)

--Task B--

trace_module_remove_events(mod) {
  list_trace_events_module(ev, mod) {
    unregister_ftrace_event(ev->event) {
      hlist_del(ev->event->node)
        list_del(....)
    }
  }
}
|--> module removed, the event has been dropped

--Task A--

  event->print(trace); // Dereferencing freed memory

If the event retrieved belongs to a module and this module
is concurrently removed, we may end up dereferencing a data
from a freed module.

RCU could solve this, but it would add latency to the kernel and
forbid tracers output callbacks to call any sleepable code.
So this fix converts 'trace_event_mutex' to a read/write semaphore,
and adds trace_event_read_lock() to protect ftrace_find_event().

Li Zefan found that there's a race using the event ids of events and
modules. When a module is loaded, an event id is incremented. We only
have 16 bits for event ids (65536) and there is a possible (but highly
unlikely) race that we could load and unload a module that registers
events so many times that the event id counter overflows.

When it overflows, it then restarts and goes looking for available
ids. An id is available if it was added by a module and released.

The race is if you have one module add an id, and then is removed.
Another module loaded can use that same event id. But if the old module
still had events in the ring buffer, the new module's call back would
get bogus data.  At best (and most likely) the output would just be
garbage. But if the module for some reason used pointers (not recommended)
then this could potentially crash.

The safest thing to do is just reset the ring buffer if a module that
registered events is removed.

This patch adds stats to the ftrace ring buffers:

 # cat /debugfs/tracing/per_cpu/cpu0/stats
 entries: 42360
 overrun: 30509326
 commit overrun: 0
 nmi dropped: 0

Where entries are the total number of data entries in the buffer.

overrun is the number of entries not consumed and were overwritten by
the writer.

commit overrun is the number of entries dropped due to nested writers
wrapping the buffer before the initial writer finished the commit.

nmi dropped is the number of entries dropped due to the ring buffer
lock being held when an nmi was going to write to the ring buffer.
Note, this field will be meaningless and will go away when the ring
buffer becomes lockless.

Splice works with pages, it is much more effecient to use an entire
page than to copy bits over several pages.

Using logdev to trace the internals of the splice mechanism, I was
able to see that splice can be very aggressive. When tracing is
occurring, and the reader caught up to the writer, and the writer
is on the reader page, the reader will copy what is there into the
splice page. Splice may iterate over several pages and if the
writer is still writing to the page, the reader will keep copying
bits to new pages to pass to userspace.

This patch changes it to only pass data to userspace if the page
is full (the writer has left the page). This has a small side effect
that splice can not read a partial page, and must wait for the
page to fill. This should not be an issue. If tracing has stopped,
then a use of "read" will still read all of the page.

[ Impact: better performance for ring buffer splice code ]
Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The splice code allocates a page even when the ring buffer is empty.
It detects the ring buffer being empty when it it fails to copy

before allocating a page.

ftrace_dump is used for printing out the contents of the ftrace ring buffer
to the console on failure. Currently it uses a spinlock to synchronize
the output from multiple failures on different CPUs. This spin lock
currently is a normal spinlock and can cause issues with lockdep and
lock tracing.

This patch converts it to raw since it is for error handling only.

infrastructure.

This patch adds run-time field descriptions to all the event formats
exported using TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT.  It also hooks up all the tracers
that use them (i.e. the tracers in the 'ftrace subsystem') so they can
also have their output filtered by the event-filtering mechanism.

When I was testing this, there were a couple of things that fooled me
into thinking the filters weren't working, when actually they were -
I'll mention them here so others don't make the same mistakes (and file
bug reports. ;-)

One is that some of the tracers trace multiple events e.g. the
sched_switch tracer uses the context_switch and wakeup events, and if
you don't set filters on all of the traced events, the unfiltered output
from the events without filters on them can make it look like the
filtering as a whole isn't working properly, when actually it is doing
what it was asked to do - it just wasn't asked to do the right thing.

The other is that for the really high-volume tracers e.g. the function
tracer, the volume of filtered events can be so high that it pushes the
unfiltered events out of the ring buffer before they can be read so e.g.
cat'ing the trace file repeatedly shows either no output, or once in
awhile some output but that isn't there the next time you read the
trace, which isn't what you normally expect when reading the trace file.
If you read from the trace_pipe file though, you can catch them before
they disappear.

It is because the return value of tracing_buffers_splice_read()

This is because we alloc the iter->started cpumask on tracing_pipe_open but
not on tracing_open.

It hadn't been noticed until now because we need to have ring buffer overruns
to activate the starting of cpu buffer detection.

Also, we need a check to not print the messagge for the first trace on the file.

Impact: fix time output bug in 32bits system

ns2usecs() returns 'long', it's incorrect.

(In i386)

....
(It always print the time less than 2200 seconds besides ...)
Because 'long' is 32bits in i386. ( (1<<31) useconds is about 2200 seconds)

          <idle>-0     [001] 4154502640.134761: idle_cpu <-irq_exit
...
(very large value)
Because 'long' is a signed type and it is 32bits in i386.

Changes in v2:
return 'unsigned long long' instead of 'cycle_t'

graph time is the time that a function is executing another function.
Thus if function A calls B, if graph-time is set, then the time for
A includes B. This is the default behavior. But if graph-time is off,
then the time spent executing B is subtracted from A.

If the function graph trace is enabled, the function profiler will
use it to take the timing of the functions.
