Rename xbc_node_find_child() to xbc_node_find_subkey() for
clarifying that function returns a key node (no value node).
Since there are xbc_node_for_each_child() (loop on all child
nodes) and xbc_node_for_each_subkey() (loop on only subkey
nodes), this name distinction is necessary to avoid confusing
users.

Since xbc_node_find_child() doesn't ensure the returned node
is a leaf node (key-value pair or do not have subkeys),
use xbc_node_find_value to ensure the histogram control

trace_boot_hist_add_array() uses the combination of
xbc_node_find_child() and xbc_node_get_child() to get the
child node of the key node. But since it missed to check
the child node is data node or not, user can pass the
subkey node for the array node (anode).
To avoid this issue, check the array node is a data node.
Actually, there is xbc_node_find_value(node, key, vnode),
which ensures the @vnode is a value node, so use it in
trace_boot_hist_add_array() to fix this issue.

Since the commit e5efaeb8a8 ("bootconfig: Support mixing
a value and subkeys under a key") allows to co-exist a value
node and key nodes under a node, xbc_node_for_each_child()
is not only returning key node but also a value node.
In the boot-time tracing using xbc_node_for_each_child() to
iterate the events, groups and instances, but those must be
key nodes. Thus it must use xbc_node_for_each_subkey().

The original test for adding and removing eprobes used synthetic events
and retrieved the filename from the open system call at the end of the
system call. This would allow it to always be loaded into the page tables
when accessed.
Masami suggested that the test was too complex for just testing add and
remove, so it was changed to test just adding and removing an event probe
on top of the start of the open system call event. Now it is possible that
the filename will not be loaded into memory at the time the eprobe is
triggered, and will result in "(fault)" being displayed in the event. This
causes the test to fail.
Account for "(fault)" also being one of the values of the filename field
of the event probe.

Setting the hist_elt_data.field_var_str[] array unconditionally to a
size of SYNTH_FIELD_MAX elements wastes space unnecessarily. The
actual number of elements needed can be calculated at run-time
instead.
In most cases, this will save a lot of space since it's a per-elt
array which isn't normally close to being full. It also allows us to
increase SYNTH_FIELD_MAX without worrying about even more wastage when
we do that.

migrate_disable() forbids task migration to another CPU. It is available
since v5.11 and has already users such as highmem or BPF. It is useful
to observe this task state in tracing which already has other states
like the preemption counter.
Instead of adding the migrate disable counter as a new entry to struct
trace_entry, which would extend the whole struct by four bytes, it is
squashed into the preempt-disable counter. The lower four bits represent
the preemption counter, the upper four bits represent the migrate
disable counter. Both counter shouldn't exceed 15 but if they do, there
is a safety net which caps the value at 15.
Add the migrate-disable counter to the trace entry so it shows up in the
trace. Due to the users mentioned above, it is already possible to
observe it:
| bash-1108 [000] ...21 73.950578: rss_stat: mm_id=2213312838 curr=0 type=MM_ANONPAGES size=8192B

| bash-1108 [000] d..31 73.951222: tlb_flush: pages:1 reason:local mm shootdown (3)
The last value is the migrate-disable counter.
Things that popped up:
- trace_print_lat_context() does not print the migrate counter. Not sure
if it should. It is used in "verbose" mode and uses 8 digits and I'm
not sure ther is something processing the value.
- trace_define_common_fields() now defines a different variable. This
probably breaks things. No ide what to do in order to preserve the old
behaviour. Since this is used as a filter it should be split somehow
to be able to match both nibbles here.

A new dynamic event is introduced: event probe. The event is attached
to an existing tracepoint and uses its fields as arguments. The user
can specify custom format string of the new event, select what tracepoint
arguments will be printed and how to print them.
An event probe is created by writing configuration string in
'dynamic_events' ftrace file:
e[:[SNAME/]ENAME] SYSTEM/EVENT [FETCHARGS] - Set an event probe
-:SNAME/ENAME - Delete an event probe
Where:
SNAME - System name, if omitted 'eprobes' is used.
ENAME - Name of the new event in SNAME, if omitted the SYSTEM_EVENT is used.
SYSTEM - Name of the system, where the tracepoint is defined, mandatory.
EVENT - Name of the tracepoint event in SYSTEM, mandatory.
FETCHARGS - Arguments:
<name>=$<field>[:TYPE] - Fetch given filed of the tracepoint and print
it as given TYPE with given name. Supported
types are:
(u8/u16/u32/u64/s8/s16/s32/s64), basic type
(x8/x16/x32/x64), hexadecimal types
"string", "ustring" and bitfield.
Example, attach an event probe on openat system call and print name of the
file that will be opened:
echo "e:esys/eopen syscalls/sys_enter_openat file=\$filename:string" >> dynamic_events
A new dynamic event is created in events/esys/eopen/ directory. It
can be deleted with:
echo "-:esys/eopen" >> dynamic_events
Filters, triggers and histograms can be attached to the new event, it can
be matched in synthetic events. There is one limitation - an event probe
can not be attached to kprobe, uprobe or another event probe.

Since kprobe_events and uprobe_events only check whether the

the other type of probe events), it silently fails to create
the tracefs entry (but registered.) as below.
/sys/kernel/tracing # ls events/task/task_rename

/sys/kernel/tracing # cat kprobe_events
p:task/task_rename vfs_read
To fix this issue, check whether the existing events have the
same name or not in trace_probe_register_event_call(). If exists,
it rejects to register the new event.

Kprobe and uprobe events can add a "system" to the events that are created
via the kprobe_events and uprobe_events files respectively. If they do not
include a "system" in the name, then the default "kprobes" or "uprobes" is
used. The current notation to specify a system for one of these probe
events is to add a '/' delimiter in the name, where the content before the
'/' will be the system to use, and the content after will be the event
name.
echo 'p:my_system/my_event' > kprobe_events
But this is inconsistent with the way histogram triggers separate their
system / event names. The histogram triggers use a '.' delimiter, which
can be confusing.
To allow this to be more consistent, as well as keep backward
compatibility, allow the kprobe and uprobe events to denote a system name
with either a '/' or a '.'.
That is:
echo 'p:my_system/my_event' > kprobe_events
is equivalent to:
echo 'p:my_system.my_event' > kprobe_events

The two places that call traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() allocate a temporary
buffer to copy the argv[i] into, because argv[i] is constant and the
traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() will modify it to do the parsing. These two
places allocate this buffer and then free it right after calling this
function, leaving the onus of this allocation to the caller.
As there's about to be a third user of this function that will have to do
the same thing, instead of having the caller allocate the temporary
buffer, simply move that allocation into the traceprobe_parse_probe_arg()
itself, which will simplify the code of the callers.

As dynamic events are not created by modules, if something is attached to
one, calling "try_module_get()" on its "mod" field, is not going to keep
the dynamic event from going away.
Since dynamic events do not need the "mod" pointer of the event structure,
make a union out of it in order to save memory (there's one structure for
each of the thousand+ events in the kernel), and have any event with the
DYNAMIC flag set to use a ref counter instead.

To differentiate between static and dynamic events, add a new flag
DYNAMIC to the event flags that all dynamic events have set. This will
allow to differentiate when attaching to a dynamic event from a static
event.
Static events have a mod pointer that references the module they were
created in (or NULL for core kernel). This can be incremented when the
event has something attached to it. But there exists no such mechanism for
dynamic events. This is dangerous as the dynamic events may now disappear
without the "attachment" knowing that it no longer exists.
To enforce the dynamic flag, change dyn_event_add() to pass the event that
is being created such that it can set the DYNAMIC flag of the event. This
helps make sure that no location that creates a dynamic event misses
setting this flag.

Since trigger_process_regex() modifies given trigger actions
while parsing, the error message couldn't show what command
was passed to the trigger_process_regex() when it returns
an error.
To fix that, show the backed up trigger action command
instead of parsed buffer.

Add multiple histograms support for each event. This allows
user to set multiple histograms to an event.
ftrace.[instance.INSTANCE.]event.GROUP.EVENT.hist[.N] {
...
}
The 'N' is a digit started string and it can be omitted
for the default histogram.
For example, multiple hist triggers example in the
Documentation/trace/histogram.rst can be written as below;
ftrace.event.net.netif_receive_skb.hist {
1 {
keys = skbaddr.hex
values = len
filter = len < 0
}
2 {
keys = skbaddr.hex
values = len
filter = len > 4096
}
3 {
keys = skbaddr.hex
values = len
filter = len == 256
}
4 {
keys = skbaddr.hex
values = len
}
5 {
keys = len
values = common_preempt_count
}
}

Support multiple handlers for per-event histogram in boot-time tracing.
Since the histogram can register multiple same handler-actions with
different parameters, this expands the syntax to support such cases.
With this update, the 'onmax', 'onchange' and 'onmatch' handler subkeys
under per-event histogram option will take a number subkeys optionally
as below. (see [.N])
ftrace.[instance.INSTANCE.]event.GROUP.EVENT.hist {
onmax|onchange[.N] { var = <VAR>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] }
onmatch[.N] { event = <EVENT>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] }
}
The 'N' must be a digit (or digit started word).
Thus user can add several handler-actions to the histogram,
for example,
ftrace.event.SOMEGROUP.SOMEEVENT.hist {
keys = SOME_ID; lat = common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0
onmatch.1 {
event = GROUP1.STARTEVENT1
trace = latency_event, SOME_ID, $lat
}
onmatch.2 {
event = GROUP2.STARTEVENT2
trace = latency_event, SOME_ID, $lat
}
}
Then, it can trace the elapsed time from GROUP1.STARTEVENT1 to
SOMEGROUP.SOMEEVENT, and from GROUP2.STARTEVENT2 to
SOMEGROUP.SOMEEVENT with SOME_ID key.

Add a hist-trigger action syntax support to boot-time tracing.
Currently, boot-time tracing supports per-event actions as option
strings. However, for the histogram action, it has a special syntax
and usually needs a long action definition.
To make it readable and fit to the bootconfig syntax, this introduces
a new options for histogram.
Here are the histogram action options for boot-time tracing.
ftrace.[instance.INSTANCE.]event.GROUP.EVENT.hist {
keys = <KEY>[,...]
values = <VAL>[,...]
sort = <SORT-KEY>[,...]
size = <ENTRIES>
name = <HISTNAME>
var { <VAR> = <EXPR> ... }
pause|continue|clear
onmax|onchange { var = <VAR>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] }
onmatch { event = <EVENT>; <ACTION> [= <PARAM>] }
filter = <FILTER>
}
Where <ACTION> is one of below;
trace = <EVENT>, <ARG1>[, ...]
save = <ARG1>[, ...]

Allow common_pid.execname to be saved in a variable in one histogram to be
passed to another histogram that can pass it as a parameter to a synthetic
event.
># echo 'hist:keys=pid:__arg__1=common_timestamp.usecs:arg2=common_pid.execname' \
> events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
># echo 'wakeup_lat s32 pid; u64 delta; char wake_comm[]' > synthetic_events
># echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:pid=next_pid,delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$__arg__1,exec=$arg2'\
':onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(wakeup_lat,$pid,$delta,$exec)' \
> events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
The above is a wake up latency synthetic event setup that passes the execname
of the common_pid that woke the task to the scheduling of that task, which
triggers a synthetic event that passes the original execname as a
parameter to display it.

Instead of kstrdup("const", GFP_KERNEL), have the hist_field type simply
assign the constant hist_field->type = "const"; And when the value passed
to it is a variable, use "kstrdup_const(var, GFP_KERNEL);" which will just
copy the value if the variable is already a constant. This saves on having
to allocate when not needed.
All frees of the hist_field->type will need to use kfree_const().

There's been several times I wished the histogram logic had a "grouping"
feature for the buckets. Currently, each bucket has a size of one. That
is, if you trace the amount of requested allocations, each allocation is
its own bucket, even if you are interested in what allocates 100 bytes or
less, 100 to 200, 200 to 300, etc.
Also, without grouping, it fills up the allocated histogram buckets
quickly. If you are tracking latency, and don't care if something is 200
microseconds off, or 201 microseconds off, but want to track them by say
10 microseconds each. This can not currently be done.
There is a log2 but that grouping get's too big too fast for a lot of
cases.
Introduce a "buckets=SIZE" command to each field where it will record in a
rounded number. For example:
># echo 'hist:keys=bytes_req.buckets=100:sort=bytes_req' > events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
># cat events/kmem/kmalloc/hist
# event histogram
#
# trigger info:
hist:keys=bytes_req.buckets=100:vals=hitcount:sort=bytes_req.buckets=100:size=2048
