only need to check the value is "0".

Reorder the init parameters from bootconfig and kernel cmdline
so that the kernel cmdline always be the last part of the
parameters as below.
" -- "[bootconfig init params][cmdline init params]
This change will help us to prevent that bootconfig init params
overwrite the init params which user gives in the command line.

There are two bugs in this code. First, if the kzalloc() fails it leads
to a NULL dereference of "ep" on the next line. Second, if the
alloc_event_probe() function returns an error then it leads to an
error pointer dereference in the caller.

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: irq_disable: caller=flush_tlb_mm_range+0x115/0x130 parent=ptep_clear_flush+0x42/0x50
| 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.

The selftest for ftrace checks some features by checking if the README has
text that states the feature is supported by that kernel. Unfortunately,
this check gives false positives because it many not be checked if there's
spaces in the string to check. This is due to the compare between the
required variable with the ":README" string stripped, because neither has

requires a loop as some of the dynamic events may depend on others being
removed first. Also add a safety that prevents it from looping infinitely

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
other same-type probe event has the same name or not, if the
user gives the same name of the existing tracepoint event (or
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
enable filter format hist id trigger
/sys/kernel/tracing # echo p:task/task_rename vfs_read >> kprobe_events
[ 113.048508] Could not create tracefs 'task_rename' directory
/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.

callback in trace_probe_tmpl.h, change the data passed to it from a
pointer to pt_regs, as the event probe will not be using regs, and make it
a void pointer instead.
Update the process_fetch_insn() callers for kprobe and uprobe events to
have the regs defined in the function and just typecast the void pointer
parameter.

Instead of a boolean "is_return" have traceprobe_set_print_fmt() take a
type (currently just PROBE_PRINT_NORMAL and PROBE_PRINT_RETURN). This will
simplify adding different types. For example, the development of the
event_probe, will need its own type as it prints an event, and not an IP.

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.

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:

The problem was the "trace(read_max,count)" where the "count" should be
"$count" as "onmax()" only handles variables (although it really should be
able to figure out that "count" is a field of sys_enter_read). But there's
a path that does not find the variable and ends up passing a NULL for the
event, which ends up getting passed to "strcmp()".
Add a check for NULL to return and error on the command with:
# cat error_log
hist:syscalls:sys_enter_read: error: Couldn't create or find variable
Command: hist:keys=common_pid:count=count:onmax($count).trace(read_max,count)

Commit 2860cd8a2353 ("livepatch: Use the default ftrace_ops instead of
REGS when ARGS is available") intends to enable config LIVEPATCH when
ftrace with ARGS is available. However, the chain of configs to enable
LIVEPATCH is incomplete, as HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is available,
but the definition of DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, combining DYNAMIC_FTRACE
and HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, needed to enable LIVEPATCH, is missing
in the commit.
Fortunately, ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py detects this and warns:
DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS
Referencing files: kernel/livepatch/Kconfig
So, define the config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS analogously to the already
existing similar configs, DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and
DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS, in ./kernel/trace/Kconfig to connect the
chain of configs.

State transitions from 1->0->1 and N->2->1 callbacks require RCU
synchronization. Rather than performing the RCU synchronization every
time the state change occurs, which is quite slow when many tracepoints
are registered in batch, instead keep a snapshot of the RCU state on the
most recent transitions which belong to a chain, and conditionally wait
for a grace period on the last transition of the chain if one g.p. has
not elapsed since the last snapshot.
This applies to both RCU and SRCU.
This brings the performance regression caused by commit 231264d6927f
("Fix: tracepoint: static call function vs data state mismatch") back to
what it was originally.
