The following can crash the kernel:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 'p:sched schedule' > kprobe_events
# exec 5>>events/kprobes/sched/enable
# > kprobe_events
# exec 5>&-
The above commands:
1. Change directory to the tracefs directory
2. Create a kprobe event (doesn't matter what one)
3. Open bash file descriptor 5 on the enable file of the kprobe event
4. Delete the kprobe event (removes the files too)
5. Close the bash file descriptor 5
The above causes a crash!

RIP: 0010:tracing_release_file_tr+0xc/0x50
What happens here is that the kprobe event creates a trace_event_file
"file" descriptor that represents the file in tracefs to the event. It
maintains state of the event (is it enabled for the given instance?).
Opening the "enable" file gets a reference to the event "file" descriptor
via the open file descriptor. When the kprobe event is deleted, the file is
also deleted from the tracefs system which also frees the event "file"
descriptor.
But as the tracefs file is still opened by user space, it will not be
totally removed until the final dput() is called on it. But this is not
true with the event "file" descriptor that is already freed. If the user
does a write to or simply closes the file descriptor it will reference the
event "file" descriptor that was just freed, causing a use-after-free bug.
To solve this, add a ref count to the event "file" descriptor as well as a
new flag called "FREED". The "file" will not be freed until the last
reference is released. But the FREE flag will be set when the event is
removed to prevent any more modifications to that event from happening,
even if there's still a reference to the event "file" descriptor.

Solve two ergonomic issues with struct seq_buf;
1) Too much boilerplate is required to initialize:
struct seq_buf s;
char buf[32];
seq_buf_init(s, buf, sizeof(buf));
Instead, we can build this directly on the stack. Provide
DECLARE_SEQ_BUF() macro to do this:
DECLARE_SEQ_BUF(s, 32);
2) %NUL termination is fragile and requires 2 steps to get a valid
C String (and is a layering violation exposing the "internals" of
seq_buf):
seq_buf_terminate(s);
do_something(s->buffer);
Instead, we can just return s->buffer directly after terminating it in
the refactored seq_buf_terminate(), now known as seq_buf_str():
do_something(seq_buf_str(s));

To make seq_buf more lightweight as a string buf, move the readpos member
from seq_buf to its container, trace_seq. That puts the responsibility
of maintaining the readpos entirely in the tracing code. If some future
users want to package up the readpos with a seq_buf, we can define a
new struct then.

Instead of having a descriptor for every file represented in the eventfs
directory, only have the directory itself represented. Change the API to
send in a list of entries that represent all the files in the directory
(but not other directories). The entry list contains a name and a callback
function that will be used to create the files when they are accessed.
struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_events_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent,
const struct eventfs_entry *entries,
int size, void *data);
is used for the top level eventfs directory, and returns an eventfs_inode
that will be used by:
struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct eventfs_inode *parent,
const struct eventfs_entry *entries,
int size, void *data);
where both of the above take an array of struct eventfs_entry entries for
every file that is in the directory.
The entries are defined by:
typedef int (*eventfs_callback)(const char *name, umode_t *mode, void **data,
const struct file_operations **fops);
struct eventfs_entry {
const char *name;
eventfs_callback callback;
};
Where the name is the name of the file and the callback gets called when
the file is being created. The callback passes in the name (in case the
same callback is used for multiple files), a pointer to the mode, data and
fops. The data will be pointing to the data that was passed in
eventfs_create_dir() or eventfs_create_events_dir() but may be overridden
to point to something else, as it will be used to point to the
inode->i_private that is created. The information passed back from the
callback is used to create the dentry/inode.
If the callback fills the data and the file should be created, it must
return a positive number. On zero or negative, the file is ignored.
This logic may also be used as a prototype to convert entire pseudo file
systems into just-in-time allocation.
The "show_events_dentry" file has been updated to show the directories,
and any files they have.
With just the eventfs_file allocations:

The ring buffer of global_trace is set to the minimum size in
order to save memory on boot up and then it will be expand when
some trace feature enabled.
However currently operations under an instance can also cause
global_trace ring buffer being expanded, and the expanded memory
would be wasted if global_trace then not being used.
See following case, we enable 'sched_switch' event in instance 'A', then
ring buffer of global_trace is unexpectedly expanded to be 1410KB, also
the '(expanded: 1408)' from 'buffer_size_kb' of instance is confusing.
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# mkdir instances/A
# cat buffer_size_kb
7 (expanded: 1408)
# cat instances/A/buffer_size_kb
1410 (expanded: 1408)
# echo sched:sched_switch > instances/A/set_event
# cat buffer_size_kb
1410
# cat instances/A/buffer_size_kb
1410
To fix it, we can:
- Make 'ring_buffer_expanded' as a member of 'struct trace_array';
- Make 'ring_buffer_expanded' of instance is defaultly true,
global_trace is defaultly false;
- In order not to expose 'global_trace' outside of file
'kernel/trace/trace.c', introduce trace_set_ring_buffer_expanded()
to set 'ring_buffer_expanded' as 'true';
- Pass the expected trace_array to tracing_update_buffers().

assigns the result to the structure. But it's assigning the ERR_PTR

assign the ERR_PTR to the structure, but to keep it NULL on error.
- Fix list_for_each_rcu() to use list_for_each_srcu() in

but because it had to call sleepable code, it had to be changed
to use SRCU, but one of the iterations was missed.

Merge tag 'probes-v6.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull probes updates from Masami Hiramatsu:
- kprobes: use struct_size() for variable size kretprobe_instance data
structure.
- eprobe: Simplify trace_eprobe list iteration.
- probe events: Data structure field access support on BTF argument.
- Update BTF argument support on the functions in the kernel
loadable modules (only loaded modules are supported).
- Move generic BTF access function (search function prototype and
get function parameters) to a separated file.
- Add a function to search a member of data structure in BTF.
- Support accessing BTF data structure member from probe args by
C-like arrow('->') and dot('.') operators. e.g.
't sched_switch next=next->pid vruntime=next->se.vruntime'
- Support accessing BTF data structure member from $retval. e.g.
'f getname_flags%return +0($retval->name):string'
- Add string type checking if BTF type info is available. This will
reject if user specify ":string" type for non "char pointer"
type.
- Automatically assume the fprobe event as a function return event
if $retval is used.
- selftests/ftrace: Add BTF data field access test cases.
- Documentation: Update fprobe event example with BTF data field.

The pipe cpumask used to serialize opens between the main and percpu
trace pipes is not zeroed or initialized. This can result in
spurious -EBUSY returns if underlying memory is not fully zeroed.
This has been observed by immediate failure to read the main
trace_pipe file on an otherwise newly booted and idle system:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
cat: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe: Device or resource busy
Zero the allocation of pipe_cpumask to avoid the problem.

``` bash

dmesg -n 7
sysctl -w kernel.panic_on_warn=1

while [ true ]; do
echo 1 > ${TR}/per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot

while [ true ]; do

```
To fix it, IIUC, we can use smp_call_function_single() to do the swap on
the target cpu where the buffer is located, so that above race would be
avoided.

There is race issue when concurrently splice_read main trace_pipe and
per_cpu trace_pipes which will result in data read out being different
from what actually writen.
As suggested by Steven:
> I believe we should add a ref count to trace_pipe and the per_cpu
> trace_pipes, where if they are opened, nothing else can read it.
>
> Opening trace_pipe locks all per_cpu ref counts, if any of them are
> open, then the trace_pipe open will fail (and releases any ref counts
> it had taken).
>
> Opening a per_cpu trace_pipe will up the ref count for just that
> CPU buffer. This will allow multiple tasks to read different per_cpu
> trace_pipe files, but will prevent the main trace_pipe file from
> being opened.
But because we only need to know whether per_cpu trace_pipe is open or
not, using a cpumask instead of using ref count may be easier.
After this patch, users will find that:
- Main trace_pipe can be opened by only one user, and if it is
opened, all per_cpu trace_pipes cannot be opened;
- Per_cpu trace_pipes can be opened by multiple users, but each per_cpu
trace_pipe can only be opened by one user. And if one of them is
opened, main trace_pipe cannot be opened.

__tracing_open() { // 1. File 'trace' is being opened;
...
*iter->trace = *tr->current_trace; // 2. Tracer 'function_graph' is
// currently set;
...
iter->trace->open(iter); // 3. Call graph_trace_open() here,

...
*iter->trace = *tr->current_trace; // 5. If tracer is switched to
// 'nop' or others, then memory
// in step 3 are leaked!!!
...
}
To fix it, in s_start(), close tracer before switching then reopen the
new tracer after switching. And some tracers like 'wakeup' may not update
'iter->private' in some cases when reopen, then it should be cleared
to avoid being mistakenly closed again.

Trace ring buffer can no longer record anything after executing
following commands at the shell prompt:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# cat tracing_cpumask

# echo 0 > tracing_cpumask
# echo 1 > snapshot
# echo fff > tracing_cpumask
# echo 1 > tracing_on
# echo "hello world" > trace_marker
-bash: echo: write error: Bad file descriptor
The root cause is that:
1. After `echo 0 > tracing_cpumask`, 'record_disabled' of cpu buffers
in 'tr->array_buffer.buffer' became 1 (see tracing_set_cpumask());
2. After `echo 1 > snapshot`, 'tr->array_buffer.buffer' is swapped
with 'tr->max_buffer.buffer', then the 'record_disabled' became 0
(see update_max_tr());
3. After `echo fff > tracing_cpumask`, the 'record_disabled' become -1;
Then array_buffer and max_buffer are both unavailable due to value of
'record_disabled' is not 0.
To fix it, enable or disable both array_buffer and max_buffer at the same
time in tracing_set_cpumask().

Currently we can resize trace ringbuffer by writing a value into file
'buffer_size_kb', then by reading the file, we get the value that is
usually what we wrote. However, this value may be not actual size of
trace ring buffer because of the round up when doing resize in kernel,
and the actual size would be more useful.

The iterator allocated a descriptor to copy the current_trace. This was done
with the assumption that the function pointers might change. But this was a
false assuption, as it does not change. There's no reason to make a copy of the
current_trace and just use the pointer it points to. This removes needing to
manage freeing the descriptor. Worse yet, there's locations that the iterator
is used but does make a copy and just uses the pointer. This could cause the
actual pointer to the trace descriptor to be freed and not the allocated copy.
This is more of a clean up than a fix.

For backward compatibility, older tooling expects to see the kernel_stack
event with a "caller" field that is a fixed size array of 8 addresses. The
code now supports more than 8 with an added "size" field that states the
real number of entries. But the "caller" field still just looks like a
fixed size to user space.
Since the tracing macros that create the user space format files also
creates the structures that those files represent, the kernel_stack event
structure had its "caller" field a fixed size of 8, but in reality, when
it is allocated on the ring buffer, it can hold more if the stack trace is
bigger that 8 functions. The copying of these entries was simply done with
a memcpy():
size = nr_entries * sizeof(unsigned long);
memcpy(entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);
The FORTIFY_SOURCE logic noticed at runtime that when the nr_entries was
larger than 8, that the memcpy() was writing more than what the structure
stated it can hold and it complained about it. This is because the
FORTIFY_SOURCE code is unaware that the amount allocated is actually
enough to hold the size. It does not expect that a fixed size field will
hold more than the fixed size.
This was originally solved by hiding the caller assignment with some
pointer arithmetic.
ptr = ring_buffer_data();
entry = ptr;
ptr += offsetof(typeof(*entry), caller);
memcpy(ptr, fstack->calls, size);
But it is considered bad form to hide from kernel hardening. Instead, make
it work nicely with FORTIFY_SOURCE by adding a new __stack_array() macro
that is specific for this one special use case. The macro will take 4
arguments: type, item, len, field (whereas the __array() macro takes just
the first three). This macro will act just like the __array() macro when
creating the code to deal with the format file that is exposed to user
space. But for the kernel, it will turn the caller field into:
type item[] __counted_by(field);
or for this instance:
unsigned long caller[] __counted_by(size);
Now the kernel code can expose the assignment of the caller to the
FORTIFY_SOURCE and everyone is happy!

The stack_trace event is an event created by the tracing subsystem to
store stack traces. It originally just contained a hard coded array of 8
words to hold the stack, and a "size" to know how many entries are there.
This is exported to user space as:
name: kernel_stack
ID: 4
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:int size; offset:8; size:4; signed:1;
field:unsigned long caller[8]; offset:16; size:64; signed:0;
print fmt: "\t=> %ps\n\t=> %ps\n\t=> %ps\n" "\t=> %ps\n\t=> %ps\n\t=> %ps\n" "\t=> %ps\n\t=> %ps\n",i
(void *)REC->caller[0], (void *)REC->caller[1], (void *)REC->caller[2],
(void *)REC->caller[3], (void *)REC->caller[4], (void *)REC->caller[5],
(void *)REC->caller[6], (void *)REC->caller[7]
Where the user space tracers could parse the stack. The library was
updated for this specific event to only look at the size, and not the
array. But some older users still look at the array (note, the older code
still checks to make sure the array fits inside the event that it read.
That is, if only 4 words were saved, the parser would not read the fifth
word because it will see that it was outside of the event size).
This event was changed a while ago to be more dynamic, and would save a
full stack even if it was greater than 8 words. It does this by simply
allocating more ring buffer to hold the extra words. Then it copies in the
stack via:
memcpy(&entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);
As the entry is struct stack_entry, that is created by a macro to both
create the structure and export this to user space, it still had the caller
field of entry defined as: unsigned long caller[8].
When the stack is greater than 8, the FORTIFY_SOURCE code notices that the
amount being copied is greater than the source array and complains about
it. It has no idea that the source is pointing to the ring buffer with the
required allocation.
To hide this from the FORTIFY_SOURCE logic, pointer arithmetic is used:
ptr = ring_buffer_event_data(event);
entry = ptr;
ptr += offsetof(typeof(*entry), caller);
memcpy(ptr, fstack->calls, size);

- Fix bad git merge of #endif in arm64 code
A merge of the arm64 tree caused #endif to go into the wrong place
- Fix crash on lseek of write access to tracefs/error_log
Opening error_log as write only, and then doing an lseek() causes
a kernel panic, because the lseek() handle expects a "seq_file"
to exist (which is not done on write only opens). Use tracing_lseek()
that tests for this instead of calling the default seq lseek handler.
- Check for negative instead of -E2BIG for error on strscpy() returns
Instead of testing for -E2BIG from strscpy(), to be more robust,
check for less than zero, which will make sure it catches any error
that strscpy() may someday return.

tracing/boot: Test strscpy() against less than zero for error
arm64: ftrace: fix build error with CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=n
tracing: Fix null pointer dereference in tracing_err_log_open()
Fix an issue in function 'tracing_err_log_open'.
The function doesn't call 'seq_open' if the file is opened only with
write permissions, which results in 'file->private_data' being left as null.
If we then use 'lseek' on that opened file, 'seq_lseek' dereferences
'file->private_data' in 'mutex_lock(&m->lock)', resulting in a kernel panic.
Writing to this node requires root privileges, therefore this bug
has very little security impact.

Pull hardening updates from Kees Cook:
"There are three areas of note:
A bunch of strlcpy()->strscpy() conversions ended up living in my tree
since they were either Acked by maintainers for me to carry, or got
ignored for multiple weeks (and were trivial changes).
The compiler option '-fstrict-flex-arrays=3' has been enabled
globally, and has been in -next for the entire devel cycle. This
changes compiler diagnostics (though mainly just -Warray-bounds which
is disabled) and potential UBSAN_BOUNDS and FORTIFY _warning_
coverage. In other words, there are no new restrictions, just
potentially new warnings. Any new FORTIFY warnings we've seen have
been fixed (usually in their respective subsystem trees). For more
details, see commit df8fc4e934c12b.
The under-development compiler attribute __counted_by has been added
so that we can start annotating flexible array members with their
associated structure member that tracks the count of flexible array
elements at run-time. It is possible (likely?) that the exact syntax
of the attribute will change before it is finalized, but GCC and Clang
are working together to sort it out. Any changes can be made to the
macro while we continue to add annotations.
As an example of that last case, I have a treewide commit waiting with
such annotations found via Coccinelle:
https://git.kernel.org/linus/adc5b3cb48a049563dc673f348eab7b6beba8a9b

Pull splice updates from Jens Axboe:
"This kills off ITER_PIPE to avoid a race between truncate,
iov_iter_revert() on the pipe and an as-yet incomplete DMA to a bio
with unpinned/unref'ed pages from an O_DIRECT splice read. This causes
memory corruption.
Instead, we either use (a) filemap_splice_read(), which invokes the
buffered file reading code and splices from the pagecache into the
pipe; (b) copy_splice_read(), which bulk-allocates a buffer, reads
into it and then pushes the filled pages into the pipe; or (c) handle
it in filesystem-specific code.
Summary:
- Rename direct_splice_read() to copy_splice_read()
- Simplify the calculations for the number of pages to be reclaimed
in copy_splice_read()
- Turn do_splice_to() into a helper, vfs_splice_read(), so that it
can be used by overlayfs and coda to perform the checks on the
lower fs
- Make vfs_splice_read() jump to copy_splice_read() to handle
direct-I/O and DAX
- Provide shmem with its own splice_read to handle non-existent pages
in the pagecache. We don't want a ->read_folio() as we don't want
to populate holes, but filemap_get_pages() requires it
- Provide overlayfs with its own splice_read to call down to a lower
layer as overlayfs doesn't provide ->read_folio()
- Provide coda with its own splice_read to call down to a lower layer
as coda doesn't provide ->read_folio()
- Direct ->splice_read to copy_splice_read() in tty, procfs, kernfs
and random files as they just copy to the output buffer and don't
splice pages
- Provide wrappers for afs, ceph, ecryptfs, ext4, f2fs, nfs, ntfs3,
ocfs2, orangefs, xfs and zonefs to do locking and/or revalidation
- Make cifs use filemap_splice_read()
- Replace pointers to generic_file_splice_read() with pointers to
filemap_splice_read() as DIO and DAX are handled in the caller;
filesystems can still provide their own alternate ->splice_read()
op
- Remove generic_file_splice_read()
- Remove ITER_PIPE and its paraphernalia as generic_file_splice_read
was the only user"

Support function or tracepoint parameters by name if BTF support is enabled
and the event is for function entry (this feature can be used with kprobe-
events, fprobe-events and tracepoint probe events.)
Note that the BTF variable syntax does not require a prefix. If it starts
with an alphabetic character or an underscore ('_') without a prefix like
'$' and '%', it is considered as a BTF variable.
If you specify only the BTF variable name, the argument name will also
be the same name instead of 'arg*'.

Allow fprobe_events to trace raw tracepoints so that user can trace
tracepoints which don't have traceevent wrappers. This new event is
always available if the fprobe_events is enabled (thus no kconfig),
because the fprobe_events depends on the trace-event and traceporint.
e.g.
# echo 't sched_overutilized_tp' >> dynamic_events
# echo 't 9p_client_req' >> dynamic_events
# cat dynamic_events
t:tracepoints/sched_overutilized_tp sched_overutilized_tp
t:tracepoints/_9p_client_req 9p_client_req
The event name is based on the tracepoint name, but if it is started
with digit character, an underscore '_' will be added.
NOTE: to avoid further confusion, this renames TPARG_FL_TPOINT to
TPARG_FL_TEVENT because this flag is used for eprobe (trace-event probe).
And reuse TPARG_FL_TPOINT for this raw tracepoint probe.

Add fprobe events for tracing function entry and exit instead of kprobe
events. With this change, we can continue to trace function entry/exit
even if the CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is not available. Since
CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE requires the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS,
it is not available if the architecture only supports
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. And that means kprobe events can not
probe function entry/exit effectively on such architecture.
But this can be solved if the dynamic events supports fprobe events.
The fprobe event is a new dynamic events which is only for the function
(symbol) entry and exit. This event accepts non register fetch arguments
so that user can trace the function arguments and return values.
The fprobe events syntax is here;
f[:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION [FETCHARGS]
f[MAXACTIVE][:[GRP/][EVENT]] FUNCTION%return [FETCHARGS]
E.g.
# echo 'f vfs_read $arg1' >> dynamic_events
# echo 'f vfs_read%return $retval' >> dynamic_events
# cat dynamic_events
f:fprobes/vfs_read__entry vfs_read arg1=$arg1
f:fprobes/vfs_read__exit vfs_read%return arg1=$retval

The tracing_selftest_running and tracing_selftest_disabled variables were
to keep trace_printk() and other writes from affecting the tracing
selftests, as the tracing selftests would examine the ring buffer to see
if it contained what it expected or not. trace_printk() and friends could
add to the ring buffer and cause the selftests to fail (and then disable
the tracer that was being tested). To keep that from happening, these
variables were added and would keep trace_printk() and friends from
writing to the ring buffer while the tests were going on.
But this was only the top level ring buffer (owned by the global_trace
instance). There is no reason to prevent writing into ring buffers of
other instances via the trace_array_printk() and friends. For the
functions that could be used by other instances, check if the global_trace
is the tracer instance that is being written to before deciding to not
allow the write.

As there are more and more internal selftests being added to the Linux
kernel (KSAN, lockdep, etc) the selftests are taking longer to run when
these are enabled. Add a cond_resched() to the calling of
do_run_tracer_selftest() to force a schedule if NEED_RESCHED is set,
otherwise the soft lockup watchdog may trigger on boot up.

The variables tracing_selftest_running and tracing_selftest_disabled are
only used for when CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST is enabled. Make them only
visible within the selftest code. The setting of those variables are in
the register_tracer() call, and set in a location where they do not need
to be. Create a wrapper around run_tracer_selftest() called
do_run_tracer_selftest() which sets those variables, and have
register_tracer() call that instead.
Having those variables only set within the CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST
scope gets rid of them (and also the ability to remove testing against
them) when the startup tests are not enabled (most cases).

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first.
This read may exceed the destination size limit.
This is both inefficient and can lead to linear read
overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated [1].
In an effort to remove strlcpy() completely [2], replace
strlcpy() here with strscpy().
No return values were used, so direct replacement with strlcpy is safe.

The histogram and synthetic events can use a pseudo event called
"stacktrace" that will create a stacktrace at the time of the event and
use it just like it was a normal field. We have other pseudo events such
as "common_cpu" and "common_timestamp". To stay consistent with that,
convert "stacktrace" to "common_stacktrace". As this was used in older
kernels, to keep backward compatibility, this will act just like
"common_cpu" did with "cpu". That is, "cpu" will be the same as
"common_cpu" unless the event has a "cpu" field. In which case, the
event's field is used. The same is true with "stacktrace".
Also update the documentation to reflect this change.

- Make buffer_percent read/write. The buffer_percent file is how users can
state how long to block on the tracing buffer depending on how much
is in the buffer. When it hits the "buffer_percent" it will wake the
task waiting on the buffer. For some reason it was set to read-only.
This was not noticed because testing was done as root without SELinux,
but with SELinux it will prevent even root to write to it without having
CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE.
- The "touched_functions" was added this merge window, but one of the
reasons for adding it was not implemented. That was to show what functions
were not only touched, but had either a direct trampoline attached to
it, or a kprobe or live kernel patching that can "hijack" the function
to run a different function. The point is to know if there's functions
in the kernel that may not be behaving as the kernel code shows. This can
be used for debugging. TODO: Add this information to kernel oops too.

- User events are finally ready!
After lots of collaboration between various parties, we finally locked
down on a stable interface for user events that can also work with user
space only tracing. This is implemented by telling the kernel (or user
space library, but that part is user space only and not part of this
patch set), where the variable is that the application uses to know if
something is listening to the trace. There's also an interface to tell
the kernel about these events, which will show up in the
/sys/kernel/tracing/events/user_events/ directory, where it can be
enabled. When it's enabled, the kernel will update the variable, to tell
the application to start writing to the kernel.

- Cleaned up the direct trampolines code to simplify arm64 addition of
direct trampolines. Direct trampolines use the ftrace interface but
instead of jumping to the ftrace trampoline, applications (mostly BPF)
can register their own trampoline for performance reasons.
- Some updates to the fprobe infrastructure. fprobes are more efficient than
kprobes, as it does not need to save all the registers that kprobes on
ftrace do. More work needs to be done before the fprobes will be exposed
as dynamic events.
- More updates to references to the obsolete path of
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing for the new /sys/kernel/tracing path.
- Add a seq_buf_do_printk() helper to seq_bufs, to print a large buffer line
by line instead of all at once. There's users in production kernels that
have a large data dump that originally used printk() directly, but the
data dump was larger than what printk() allowed as a single print.
Using seq_buf() to do the printing fixes that.
- Add /sys/kernel/tracing/touched_functions that shows all functions that
was every traced by ftrace or a direct trampoline. This is used for
debugging issues where a traced function could have caused a crash by
a bpf program or live patching.
- Add a "fields" option that is similar to "raw" but outputs the fields of
the events. It's easier to read by humans.

The kernel command line ftrace_boot_snapshot by itself is supposed to
trigger a snapshot at the end of boot up of the main top level trace
buffer. A ftrace_boot_snapshot=foo will do the same for an instance called
foo that was created by trace_instance=foo,...
The logic was broken where if ftrace_boot_snapshot was by itself, it would
trigger a snapshot for all instances that had tracing enabled, regardless
if it asked for a snapshot or not.
When a snapshot is requested for a buffer, the buffer's
tr->allocated_snapshot is set to true. Use that to know if a trace buffer
wants a snapshot at boot up or not.
Since the top level buffer is part of the ftrace_trace_arrays list,
there's no reason to treat it differently than the other buffers. Just
iterate the list if ftrace_boot_snapshot was specified.

If a trace instance has a failure with its snapshot code, the error
message is to be written to that instance's buffer. But currently, the
message is written to the top level buffer. Worse yet, it may also disable
the top level buffer and not the instance that had the issue.
