arm64: stacktrace: Factor out backtrace initialisation

2019-07-22T10:44:08Z

Some common code is required by each stacktrace user to initialise struct stackframe before the first call to unwind_frame(). In preparation for adding to the common code, this patch factors it out into a separate function start_backtrace(), and modifies the stacktrace callers appropriately. No functional change.

Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function

2019-01-04T02:57:57Z

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand. It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact. A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's just get this done once and for all. This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form. There were a couple of notable cases: - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias. - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing really used it) - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch. I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

2018-12-31T19:46:59Z

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Rework of the kprobe/uprobe and synthetic events to consolidate all the dynamic event code. This will make changes in the future easier. - Partial rewrite of the function graph tracing infrastructure. This will allow for multiple users of hooking onto functions to get the callback (return) of the function. This is the ground work for having kprobes and function graph tracer using one code base. - Clean up of the histogram code that will facilitate adding more features to the histograms in the future. - Addition of str_has_prefix() and a few use cases. There currently is a similar function strstart() that is used in a few places, but only returns a bool and not a length. These instances will be removed in the future to use str_has_prefix() instead. - A few other various clean ups as well. * tag 'trace-v4.21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (57 commits) tracing: Use the return of str_has_prefix() to remove open coded numbers tracing: Have the historgram use the result of str_has_prefix() for len of prefix tracing: Use str_has_prefix() instead of using fixed sizes tracing: Use str_has_prefix() helper for histogram code string.h: Add str_has_prefix() helper function tracing: Make function ‘ftrace_exports’ static tracing: Simplify printf'ing in seq_print_sym tracing: Avoid -Wformat-nonliteral warning tracing: Merge seq_print_sym_short() and seq_print_sym_offset() tracing: Add hist trigger comments for variable-related fields tracing: Remove hist trigger synth_var_refs tracing: Use hist trigger's var_ref array to destroy var_refs tracing: Remove open-coding of hist trigger var_ref management tracing: Use var_refs[] for hist trigger reference checking tracing: Change strlen to sizeof for hist trigger static strings tracing: Remove unnecessary hist trigger struct field tracing: Fix ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack() to use task and not current seq_buf: Use size_t for len in seq_buf_puts() seq_buf: Make seq_buf_puts() null-terminate the buffer arm64: Use ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack() instead of curr_ret_stack ...

arm64: Use ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack() instead of curr_ret_stack

2018-12-22T13:21:02Z

The structure of the ret_stack array on the task struct is going to change, and accessing it directly via the curr_ret_stack index will no longer give the ret_stack entry that holds the return address. To access that, architectures must now use ftrace_graph_get_ret_stack() to get the associated ret_stack that matches the saved return address.

arm64: perf: strip PAC when unwinding userspace

2018-12-13T16:42:46Z

When the kernel is unwinding userspace callchains, we can't expect that the userspace consumer of these callchains has the data necessary to strip the PAC from the stored LR. This patch has the kernel strip the PAC from user stackframes when the in-kernel unwinder is used. This only affects the LR value, and not the FP. This only affects the in-kernel unwinder. When userspace performs unwinding, it is up to userspace to strip PACs as necessary (which can be determined from DWARF information).

arm64: unwind: remove sp from struct stackframe

2017-08-09T13:10:29Z

The unwind code sets the sp member of struct stackframe to 'frame pointer + 0x10' unconditionally, without regard for whether doing so produces a legal value. So let's simply remove it now that we have stopped using it anyway. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: James Morse Cc: Will Deacon

perf core: Add a 'nr' field to perf_event_callchain_context

2016-05-17T02:11:51Z

We will use it to count how many addresses are in the entry->ip[] array, excluding PERF_CONTEXT_{KERNEL,USER,etc} entries, so that we can really return the number of entries specified by the user via the relevant sysctl, kernel.perf_event_max_contexts, or via the per event perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack knob. This way we keep the perf_sample->ip_callchain->nr meaning, that is the number of entries, be it real addresses or PERF_CONTEXT_ entries, while honouring the max_stack knobs, i.e. the end result will be max_stack entries if we have at least that many entries in a given stack trace.

perf core: Allow setting up max frame stack depth via sysctl

2016-04-27T13:20:39Z

The default remains 127, which is good for most cases, and not even hit most of the time, but then for some cases, as reported by Brendan, 1024+ deep frames are appearing on the radar for things like groovy, ruby. And in some workloads putting a _lower_ cap on this may make sense. One that is per event still needs to be put in place tho. The new file is: # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack 127 Chaging it: # echo 256 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack # cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack 256 But as soon as there is some event using callchains we get: # echo 512 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack -bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy # Because we only allocate the callchain percpu data structures when there is a user, which allows for changing the max easily, its just a matter of having no callchain users at that point.
