Convert the syscalls event tracing code to use NR_syscalls, instead of
FTRACE_SYSCALL_MAX. NR_syscalls is standard accross most arches, and
reduces code confusion/complexity.

Most arch syscall_get_nr() implementations returns -1 if the syscall
number is not valid. Accessing the bit field without a check might
result in a kernel oops (at least I saw it on s390 for ftrace selftest).
Before this change, this problem did not occur, because the invalid
syscall number (-1) caused syscall_nr_to_meta() to return NULL.
There are at least two scenarios where syscall_get_nr() can return -1:
1. For example, ptrace stores an invalid syscall number, and thus,
tracing code resets it.
(see do_syscall_trace_enter in arch/s390/kernel/ptrace.c)
2. The syscall_regfunc() (kernel/tracepoint.c) sets the
TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE (now: TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT) flag for all threads
which include kernel threads.
However, the ftrace selftest triggers a kernel oops when testing
syscall trace points:
- The kernel thread is started as ususal (do_fork()),
- tracing code sets TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE,
- the ret_from_fork() function is triggered and starts
ftrace_syscall_exit() with an invalid syscall number.
To avoid these scenarios, I suggest to check the syscall_nr.
For instance, the ftrace selftest fails for s390 (with config option
CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS set) and produces the following kernel oops.
Unable to handle kernel pointer dereference at virtual kernel address 2000000000

Usually, char * entries are dangerous in traces because the string
can be released whereas a pointer to it can still wait to be read from
the ring buffer.
But sometimes we can assume it's safe, like in case of RO data
(eg: __file__ or __line__, used in bkl trace event). If these RO data
are in a module and so is the call to the trace event, then it's safe,
because the ring buffer will be flushed once this module get unloaded.
To allow char * to be treated as a string:
TRACE_EVENT(...,
TP_STRUCT__entry(
__field_ext(const char *, name, FILTER_PTR_STRING)
...
)
...
);
The filtering will not dereference "char *" unless the developer
explicitly sets FILTER_PTR_STR in __field_ext.

The type of a field is stored as a string in @type, and here
we add @filter_type which is an enum value.
This prepares for later patches, so we can specifically assign
different @filter_type for the same @type.
For example normally a "char *" field is treated as a ptr,
but we may want it to be treated as a string when doing filting.

This converts the syscall_enter/exit tracepoints into TRACE_EVENTs, so
you can have generic ftrace events that capture all system calls with
arguments and return values. These generic events are also renamed to
sys_enter/exit, so they're more closely aligned to the specific
sys_enter_foo events.

The "format" file of a trace event is originally for parsers to
parse ftrace binary output.
But the "format" file of a syscall event can only be used by
perfcounter, because it describes the format of struct
syscall_enter_record not struct syscall_trace_enter.
To fix this, we remove struct syscall_enter_record, and then
struct syscall_trace_enter will be used by both perf profile
and ftrace.

"echo noglobal-clock > trace_options" can be used to change trace
clock but "echo 0 > options/global-clock" can't. The flag toggling
will be silently accepted without actually changing the clock callback.

blktrace: remove debugfs entries on bad path
added in an explicit invocation of debugfs_remove for bt->dir, in
blk_remove_buf_file_callback we are also getting the directory removed. On
occasion I am seeing memory corruption that I have bisected down to
this commit. [The testing involves a (long) series of I/O benchmarks
with blktrace invoked around the actual runs.] I believe that this
committed patch is correct, but the problem actually lies in the code
in blk_remove_buf_file_callback.
With this patch I am able to consistently get complete runs whereas
previously I could not get a single run to complete.
The first part of the patch simply moves the debugfs_remove below the
relay_close: the relay_close call will remove files under bt->dir, and
so we should not remove the directory until all the files we created
have been removed. (Note: This is not sufficient to fix the problem -
the file system code has ref counts on the directoy, so our invocation
does not cause the directory to actually be removed. Nonetheless, we
should not rely upon that feature.)

set_tracer_flags() have a local variable named trace_flags which has
the same name than a global one in the same scope.
This leads to confusion, using tracer_flags should be better by its
meaning.

This patch implements the kernel side support for ftrace event
record sampling.
A new counter sampling attribute is added:
PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD
which requests ftrace events record sampling. In this case
if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint
fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the
perfcounter event buffer, as a sample.
Result, after setting PERF_SAMPLE_TP_RECORD attribute from perf
record:
perf record -f -F 1 -a -e workqueue:workqueue_execution
perf report -D
0x21e18 [0x48]: event: 9
.
. ... raw event: size 72 bytes

.
0x21e18 [0x48]: PERF_EVENT_SAMPLE (IP, 1): 10: 0xffffffff8100c7d0 period: 33
The raw ftrace binary record starts at offset 0020.
Translation:
struct trace_entry {
type = 0x2b = 43;
flags = 1;
preempt_count = 2;
pid = 0xa = 10;
tgid = 0xa = 10;
}
thread_comm = "events/1"
thread_pid = 0xa = 10;
func = 0xffffffff8131b1e0 = flush_to_ldisc()
What will come next?
- Userspace support ('perf trace'), 'flight data recorder' mode
for perf trace, etc.
- The unconditional copy from the profiling callback brings
some costs however if someone wants no such sampling to
occur, and needs to be fixed in the future. For that we need
to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute.
This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event.
- Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record
a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in
the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity.
That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity
protection.
- [...]
- Profit! :-)

The original report:
create_logical_pred() could sometimes return NULL.
It's a static checker complaining rather than problems at runtime...

If filter_add_subsystem_pred() fails due to ENOSPC or ENOMEM,
the pred doesn't get freed, while as a side effect it does for
other errors. Make it so the caller always frees the pred for
any error.

When calling rb_buffer_peek() from ring_buffer_consume() and a
padding event is returned, the function rb_advance_reader() is
called twice. This may lead to missing samples or under high
workloads to the warning below. This patch fixes this. If a padding
event is returned by rb_buffer_peek() it will be consumed by the
calling function now.
Also, I simplified some code in ring_buffer_consume().

print_graph_cpu() is little over-designed.
And "log10_all" may be wrong when there are holes in cpu_online_mask:
the max online cpu id > cpumask_weight(cpu_online_mask)
So change it by using a static column length for the cpu matching
nr_cpu_ids number of decimal characters.

Not all tracepoints are created equal, in specific the ftrace
tracepoints are created with TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT() which does
not generate the needed bits to tie them into perf counters.
For those events, don't create the 'id' file and fail
->profile_enable when their ID is specified through other
means.

Will permanently set oops_in_progress on any lockdep failure.
When this triggers it will cause any read from the ring buffer to
permanently disable the ring buffer (not to mention no locking of
printk).
This patch removes the check. It keeps the print in NMI which makes
sense. This is probably OK, since the ring buffer should not cause
something to set oops_in_progress anyway.

The function ring_buffer_discard_commit inversed the code path
of the result of try_to_discard. It should skip incrementing the
entry counter if try_to_discard succeeded. But instead, it increments
the entry conder if it succeeded to discard, and does not increment
it if it fails.
The result of this bug is that filtering will make the stat counters
incorrect.
