15 years agotracing: fix leak in event_format_read()

tracing: fix leak in event_format_read()

Impact: fix memory leak

If event_format_read() exits early due to nonzero ppos, the
previous kmalloc doesn't get freed - might as well do the
check before the kmalloc and avoid the problem.

the tracing_start() function:

        [...]
out:
        trace->reset(tr);
        tracing_start(); <------
        tracing_max_latency = save_max;

Since it is well handled in the out path, we don't need the conditional one.

- task A is the last user of syscall tracing, it releases the
  TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE on each tasks

- at the same time task B start syscall tracing. refcount == 0 so
  it sets up TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE on each tasks.

The effect of the mixup is unpredictable.

tracing/syscalls: fix missing release of tracing

Impact: fix 'stuck' syscall tracer

The syscall tracer uses a refcounter to enable several users
simultaneously.

But the refcounter did not behave correctly and always restored
its value to 0 after calling start_syscall_tracing(). Therefore,
stop_syscall_tracing() couldn't release correctly the tasks from
tracing.

Also the tracer forgot to reset the buffer when it is released.

Drop the pointless refcount decrement on start_syscall_tracing()
and reset the buffer when we release the tracer.

This fixes two reported issue:

- when we switch from syscall tracer to another tracer, syscall
  tracing continued.

- incorrect use of the refcount.

eCryptfs: don't encrypt file key with filename key

eCryptfs has file encryption keys (FEK), file encryption key encryption
keys (FEKEK), and filename encryption keys (FNEK).  The per-file FEK is
encrypted with one or more FEKEKs and stored in the header of the
encrypted file.  I noticed that the FEK is also being encrypted by the
FNEK.  This is a problem if a user wants to use a different FNEK than
their FEKEK, as their file contents will still be accessible with the
FNEK.

This is a minimalistic patch which prevents the FNEKs signatures from
being copied to the inode signatures list.  Ultimately, it keeps the FEK
from being encrypted with a FNEK.

Enrik Berkhan [Fri, 13 Mar 2009 20:51:56 +0000 (13:51 -0700)]
nommu: ramfs: pages allocated to an inode's pagecache may get wrongly discarded

The pages attached to a ramfs inode's pagecache by truncation from nothing
- as done by SYSV SHM for example - may get discarded under memory
pressure.

The problem is that the pages are not marked dirty.  Anything that creates
data in an MMU-based ramfs will cause the pages holding that data will
cause the set_page_dirty() aop to be called.

For the NOMMU-based mmap, set_page_dirty() may be called by write(), but
it won't be called by page-writing faults on writable mmaps, and it isn't
called by ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() when a file is being truncated
from nothing to allocate a contiguous run.

The solution is to mark the pages dirty at the point of allocation by the
truncation code.

15 years agokallsyms, tracing: output more proper symbol name

kallsyms, tracing: output more proper symbol name

Impact: bugfix, output more reliable symbol lookup result

Debug tools(dump_stack(), ftrace...) are like to print out symbols.
But it is always print out the first aliased symbol.(Aliased symbols
are symbols with the same address), and the first aliased symbol is
sometime not proper.

 # echo function_graph > current_tracer
 # cat trace
......
 1)   1.923 us    |    select_nohz_load_balancer();
 1) + 76.692 us   |  }
 1)               |  default_idle() {
 1)   ==========> |    __irqentry_text_start() {
 1)   0.000 us    |      native_apic_mem_write();
 1)               |      irq_enter() {
 1)   0.000 us    |        idle_cpu();
 1)               |        tick_check_idle() {
 1)   0.000 us    |          tick_check_oneshot_broadcast();
 1)               |          tick_nohz_stop_idle() {
......

It's very embarrassing, it ouputs "__irqentry_text_start()",
actually, it should output "smp_apic_timer_interrupt()".
(these two symbol are the same address, but "__irqentry_text_start"
is deemed to the first aliased symbol by scripts/kallsyms)

This patch puts symbols like "__irqentry_text_start" to the second
aliased symbols. And a more proper symbol name becomes the first.

Aliased symbols mostly come from linker script. The solution is
guessing "is this symbol defined in linker script", the symbols
defined in linker script will not become the first aliased symbol.

And if symbols are found to be equal in this "linker script provided"
criteria, symbols are sorted by the number of prefix underscores.

doesn't expose the first port but somehow SStatus reports link online
while failing SRST protocol leading to repeated probe failures and

have subsystem vendor and ID set.  It's unclear whether the subsystem
IDs are used only for the board but it can be safely worked around by

engines can use it. (They just have to play with

unless they want to override them.)

namespace. But we don't really need it. The arch has just to
build a function able to resolve the syscall number to its
metadata struct.

The current tracer prints the syscall names, parameters names
and values (and their types optionally). Currently the value is

15 years agotracing/core: bring back raw trace_printk for dynamic formats strings
Frederic Weisbecker [Thu, 12 Mar 2009 17:24:49 +0000 (18:24 +0100)]
tracing/core: bring back raw trace_printk for dynamic formats strings

Impact: fix callsites with dynamic format strings

Since its new binary implementation, trace_printk() internally uses static
containers for the format strings on each callsites. But the value is
assigned once at build time, which means that it can't take dynamic
formats.

So this patch unearthes the raw trace_printk implementation for the callers
that will need trace_printk to be able to carry these dynamic format
strings. The trace_printk() macro will use the appropriate implementation
for each callsite. Most of the time however, the binary implementation will
still be used.

The other impact of this patch is that mmiotrace_printk() will use the old
implementation because it calls the low level trace_vprintk and we can't
guess here whether the format passed in it is dynamic or not.

Some parts of this patch have been written by Steven Rostedt (most notably
the part that chooses the appropriate implementation for each callsites).

15 years agotracing: show that buffer size is not expanded
Steven Rostedt [Thu, 12 Mar 2009 17:53:25 +0000 (13:53 -0400)]
tracing: show that buffer size is not expanded

Impact: do not confuse user on small trace buffer sizes

When the system boots up, the trace buffer is small to conserve memory.
It is only two pages per online CPU. When the tracer is used, it expands
to the default value.

This can confuse the user if they look at the buffer size and see only
7, but then later they see 1408.

 # cat /debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
7

 # echo sched_switch > /debug/tracing/current_tracer

 # cat /debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
1408

This patch tries to help remove this confustion by showing that the
buffer has not been expanded.

 # cat /debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb
7 (expanded: 1408)

15 years agoring-buffer: remove unneeded get_online_cpus

ring-buffer: remove unneeded get_online_cpus

Impact: speed up and remove possible races

The get_online_cpus was added to the ring buffer because the original
design would free the ring buffer on a CPU that was being taken
off line. The final design kept the ring buffer around even when the
CPU was taken off line. This is to allow a user to still read the
information on that ring buffer.

Most of the get_online_cpus are no longer needed since the ring buffer will
not disappear from the use cases.
