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 df8fc4e934.
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()

- Remove generic_file_splice_read()

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.

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 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

Using sched_set_affinity() has unwanted side effects when being
called within a container. Use set_cpus_allowed_ptr() instead.
- Fix per cpu thread management of the hwlat tracer
* Do not start per_cpu threads if one is already running for the CPU.
* When starting per_cpu threads, do not clear the kthread variable
as it may already be set to running per cpu threads
- Fix return value for test_gen_kprobe_cmd()
On error the return value was overwritten by being set to
the result of the call from kprobe_event_delete(), which would
likely succeed, and thus have the function return success.
- Fix splice() reads from the trace file that was broken by
36e2c7421f ("fs: don't allow splice read/write without explicit ops")
- Remove obsolete and confusing comment in ring_buffer.c
The original design of the ring buffer used struct page flags
for tricks to optimize, which was shortly removed due to them
being tricks. But a comment for those tricks remained.
- Set local functions and variables to static

Since the commit 36e2c7421f ("fs: don't allow splice read/write
without explicit ops") is applied to the kernel, splice() and
sendfile() calls on the trace file (/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
/trace) return EINVAL.
This patch restores these system calls by initializing splice_read
in file_operations of the trace file. This patch only enables such
functionalities for the read case.

There are scenes that we want to show the character value of traced
arguments other than a decimal or hexadecimal or string value for debug
convinience. I add a new type named 'char' to do it and a new test case
file named 'kprobe_args_char.tc' to do selftest for char type.
For example:
The to be traced function is 'void demo_func(char type, char *name);', we
can add a kprobe event as follows to show argument values as we want:
echo 'p:myprobe demo_func $arg1:char +0($arg2):char[5]' > kprobe_events
we will get the following trace log:
... myprobe: (demo_func+0x0/0x29) arg1='A' arg2={'b','p','f','1',''}

The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing.
But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst:
Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs
file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing.
For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system,
the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at:
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
Many comments and Kconfig help messages in the tracing code still refer
to this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

poll() and select() on per_cpu trace_pipe and trace_pipe_raw do not work
since kernel 6.1-rc6. This issue is seen after the commit
42fb0a1e84 ("tracing/ring-buffer: Have
polling block on watermark").
This issue is firstly detected and reported, when testing the CXL error
events in the rasdaemon and also erified using the test application for poll()
and select().
This issue occurs for the per_cpu case, when calling the ring_buffer_poll_wait(),
in kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c, with the buffer_percent > 0 and then wait until the
percentage of pages are available. The default value set for the buffer_percent is 50
in the kernel/trace/trace.c.
As a fix, allow userspace application could set buffer_percent as 0 through
the buffer_percent_fops, so that the task will wake up as soon as data is added
to any of the specific cpu buffer.

Currently trace_printk() can be used as soon as early_trace_init() is
called from start_kernel(). But if a crash happens, and
"ftrace_dump_on_oops" is set on the kernel command line, all you get will
be:
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 347519us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 353141us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 358684us : Unknown type 6
This is because the trace_printk() event (type 6) hasn't been registered
yet. That gets done via an early_initcall(), which may be early, but not
early enough.
Instead of registering the trace_printk() event (and other ftrace events,
which are not trace events) via an early_initcall(), have them registered at
the same time that trace_printk() can be used. This way, if there is a
crash before early_initcall(), then the trace_printk()s will actually be
useful.

Note that there is already 'symbol' type which just change the
print format (so it still stores the symbol address in the tracing
ring buffer.) On the other hand, 'symstr' type stores the actual
"symbol+offset/size" data as a string.

Currently the tracing dump_on_oops feature is implemented through
separate notifiers, one for die/oops and the other for panic;
given they have the same functionality, let's unify them.
Also improve the function comment and change the priority of the
notifier to make it execute earlier, avoiding showing useless trace
data (like the callback names for the other notifiers); finally,
we also removed an unnecessary header inclusion.

print_trace_line may overflow seq_file buffer. If the event is not
consumed, the while loop keeps peeking this event, causing a infinite loop.

Both CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER and CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER partially enables the
CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE code, but that is complicated and has
introduced a bug; It declares tracing_max_lat_fops data structure outside
of #ifdefs, but since it is defined only when CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE=y
or CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER=y, if only CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER=y, that
declaration comes to a definition(!).
To fix this issue, and do not repeat the similar problem, makes
CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER and CONFIG_HWLAT_TRACER enables the
CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE always. It has there benefits;
- Fix the tracing_max_lat_fops bug
- Simplify the #ifdefs
- CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE code is fully enabled, or not.

Currently the tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() requires the
trace_types_lock held. But only one caller of this function actually has
that lock held before calling it, and the other just takes the lock so
that it can call it. More users of this function is needed where the lock
is not held.
Add a tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() function for the one use
case that calls it without being held, and also add a lockdep_assert to
make sure it is held when called.
Then have tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() take the lock internally, such
that callers do not need to worry about taking it.

Entries in list 'tr->err_log' will be reused after entry number
exceed TRACING_LOG_ERRS_MAX.
The cmd string of the to be reused entry will be freed first then
allocated a new one. If the allocation failed, then the entry will
still be in list 'tr->err_log' but its 'cmd' field is set to be NULL,
later access of 'cmd' is risky.
Currently above problem can cause the loss of 'cmd' information of first
entry in 'tr->err_log'. When execute `cat /sys/kernel/tracing/error_log`,
reproduce logs like:
[ 37.495100] trace_kprobe: error: Maxactive is not for kprobe(null) ^
[ 38.412517] trace_kprobe: error: Maxactive is not for kprobe
Command: p4:myprobe2 do_sys_openat2

Currently the way polling works on the ring buffer is broken. It will
return immediately if there's any data in the ring buffer whereas a read
will block until the watermark (defined by the tracefs buffer_percent file)
is hit.
That is, a select() or poll() will return as if there's data available,
but then the following read will block. This is broken for the way
select()s and poll()s are supposed to work.
Have the polling on the ring buffer also block the same way reads and
splice does on the ring buffer.

The ftrace_boot_snapshot and alloc_snapshot cmdline options allocate the
snapshot buffer at boot up for use later. The ftrace_boot_snapshot in
particular requires the snapshot to be allocated because it will take a
snapshot at the end of boot up allowing to see the traces that happened
during boot so that it's not lost when user space takes over.
When a tracer is registered (started) there's a path that checks if it
requires the snapshot buffer or not, and if it does not and it was
allocated it will do a synchronization and free the snapshot buffer.
This is only required if the previous tracer was using it for "max
latency" snapshots, as it needs to make sure all max snapshots are
complete before freeing. But this is only needed if the previous tracer
was using the snapshot buffer for latency (like irqoff tracer and
friends). But it does not make sense to free it, if the previous tracer
was not using it, and the snapshot was allocated by the cmdline
parameters. This basically takes away the point of allocating it in the
first place!
Note, the allocated snapshot worked fine for just trace events, but fails
when a tracer is enabled on the cmdline.
Further investigation, this goes back even further and it does not require
a tracer on the cmdline to fail. Simply enable snapshots and then enable a
tracer, and it will remove the snapshot.
