2025-08-28tracing: Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace eventSteven Rostedt
[ Upstream commit b5e8acc14dcb314a9b61ff19dcd9fdd0d88f70df ] When a module is loaded, it adds trace events defined by the module. It may also need to modify the modules trace printk formats to replace enum names with their values. If two modules are loaded at the same time, the adding of the event to the ftrace_events list can corrupt the walking of the list in the code that is modifying the printk format strings and crash the kernel. The addition of the event should take the trace_event_sem for write while it adds the new event. Also add a lockdep_assert_held() on that semaphore in __trace_add_event_dirs() as it iterates the list.

2025-05-02tracing: fix return value in __ftrace_event_enable_disable for ↵Gabriele Paoloni
TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER [ Upstream commit 0c588ac0ca6c22b774d9ad4a6594681fdfa57d9d ] When __ftrace_event_enable_disable invokes the class callback to unregister the event, the return value is not reported up to the caller, hence leading to event unregister failures being silently ignored. This patch assigns the ret variable to the invocation of the event unregister callback, so that its return value is stored and reported to the caller, and it raises a warning in case of error.

2023-11-28tracing: Have trace_event_file have ref countersSteven Rostedt (Google)
commit bb32500fb9b78215e4ef6ee8b4345c5f5d7eafb4 upstream. The following can crash the kernel: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # echo 'p:sched schedule' > kprobe_events # exec 5>>events/kprobes/sched/enable # > kprobe_events # exec 5>&- The above commands: 1. Change directory to the tracefs directory 2. Create a kprobe event (doesn't matter what one) 3. Open bash file descriptor 5 on the enable file of the kprobe event 4. Delete the kprobe event (removes the files too) 5. Close the bash file descriptor 5 The above causes a crash! BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000028 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI CPU: 6 PID: 877 Comm: bash Not tainted 6.5.0-rc4-test-00008-g2c6b6b1029d4-dirty #186 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.2-debian-1.16.2-1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:tracing_release_file_tr+0xc/0x50 What happens here is that the kprobe event creates a trace_event_file "file" descriptor that represents the file in tracefs to the event. It maintains state of the event (is it enabled for the given instance?). Opening the "enable" file gets a reference to the event "file" descriptor via the open file descriptor. When the kprobe event is deleted, the file is also deleted from the tracefs system which also frees the event "file" descriptor. But as the tracefs file is still opened by user space, it will not be totally removed until the final dput() is called on it. But this is not true with the event "file" descriptor that is already freed. If the user does a write to or simply closes the file descriptor it will reference the event "file" descriptor that was just freed, causing a use-after-free bug. To solve this, add a ref count to the event "file" descriptor as well as a new flag called "FREED". The "file" will not be freed until the last reference is released. But the FREE flag will be set when the event is removed to prevent any more modifications to that event from happening, even if there's still a reference to the event "file" descriptor.

2023-10-25tracing: relax trace_event_eval_update() execution with cond_resched()Clément Léger
[ Upstream commit 23cce5f25491968b23fb9c399bbfb25f13870cd9 ] When kernel is compiled without preemption, the eval_map_work_func() (which calls trace_event_eval_update()) will not be preempted up to its complete execution. This can actually cause a problem since if another CPU call stop_machine(), the call will have to wait for the eval_map_work_func() function to finish executing in the workqueue before being able to be scheduled. This problem was observe on a SMP system at boot time, when the CPU calling the initcalls executed clocksource_done_booting() which in the end calls stop_machine(). We observed a 1 second delay because one CPU was executing eval_map_work_func() and was not preempted by the stop_machine() task. Adding a call to cond_resched() in trace_event_eval_update() allows other tasks to be executed and thus continue working asynchronously like before without blocking any pending task at boot time.

Reproduction script show as below, for analysis, see the comments: ``` #!/bin/bash cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ # 1. Register a 'disable_event' command, then: # 1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was set; # 2) trace_buffered_event_enable() was called first time; echo 'cmdline_proc_show:disable_event:initcall:initcall_finish' > \ set_ftrace_filter # 2. Enable the event registered, then: # 1) SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was cleared; # 2) trace_buffered_event_disable() was called first time; echo 1 > events/initcall/initcall_finish/enable # 3. Try to call into cmdline_proc_show(), then SOFT_DISABLED_BIT was # set again!!! cat /proc/cmdline # 4.

2023-06-28tracing: Add tracing_reset_all_online_cpus_unlocked() functionSteven Rostedt (Google)
commit e18eb8783ec4949adebc7d7b0fdb65f65bfeefd9 upstream. 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.

2022-12-08tracing: Free buffers when a used dynamic event is removedSteven Rostedt (Google)
commit 4313e5a613049dfc1819a6dfb5f94cf2caff9452 upstream. After 65536 dynamic events have been added and removed, the "type" field of the event then uses the first type number that is available (not currently used by other events). A type number is the identifier of the binary blobs in the tracing ring buffer (known as events) to map them to logic that can parse the binary blob. The issue is that if a dynamic event (like a kprobe event) is traced and is in the ring buffer, and then that event is removed (because it is dynamic, which means it can be created and destroyed), if another dynamic event is created that has the same number that new event's logic on parsing the binary blob will be used. To show how this can be an issue, the following can crash the kernel: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # for i in `seq 65536`; do echo 'p:kprobes/foo do_sys_openat2 $arg1:u32' > kprobe_events # done For every iteration of the above, the writing to the kprobe_events will remove the old event and create a new one (with the same format) and increase the type number to the next available on until the type number reaches over 65535 which is the max number for the 16 bit type. After it reaches that number, the logic to allocate a new number simply looks for the next available number. When an dynamic event is removed, that number is then available to be reused by the next dynamic event created. That is, once the above reaches the max number, the number assigned to the event in that loop will remain the same. Now that means deleting one dynamic event and created another will reuse the previous events type number. This is where bad things can happen. After the above loop finishes, the kprobes/foo event which reads the do_sys_openat2 function call's first parameter as an integer. # echo 1 > kprobes/foo/enable # cat /etc/passwd > /dev/null # cat trace cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849603: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849620: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849838: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 cat-2211 [005] .... 2007.849880: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x130) arg1=4294967196 # echo 0 > kprobes/foo/enable Now if we delete the kprobe and create a new one that reads a string: # echo 'p:kprobes/foo do_sys_openat2 +0($arg2):string' > kprobe_events And now we can the trace: # cat trace sendmail-1942 [002] ..... 530.136320: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1= cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.930817: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.930961: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.934278: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" cat-2046 [004] ..... 530.934563: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������" bash-1515 [007] ..... 534.299093: foo: (do_sys_openat2+0x0/0x240) arg1="kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk���������@��4Z����;Y�����U And dmesg has: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in string+0xd4/0x1c0 Read of size 1 at addr ffff88805fdbbfa0 by task cat/2049 CPU: 0 PID: 2049 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.1.0-rc6-test+ #641 Hardware name: Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF/339A, BIOS K01 v03.03 07/14/2016 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x5b/0x77 print_report+0x17f/0x47b kasan_report+0xad/0x130 string+0xd4/0x1c0 vsnprintf+0x500/0x840 seq_buf_vprintf+0x62/0xc0 trace_seq_printf+0x10e/0x1e0 print_type_string+0x90/0xa0 print_kprobe_event+0x16b/0x290 print_trace_line+0x451/0x8e0 s_show+0x72/0x1f0 seq_read_iter+0x58e/0x750 seq_read+0x115/0x160 vfs_read+0x11d/0x460 ksys_read+0xa9/0x130 do_syscall_64+0x3a/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd RIP: 0033:0x7fc2e972ade2 Code: c0 e9 b2 fe ff ff 50 48 8d 3d b2 3f 0a 00 e8 05 f0 01 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 f3 0f 1e fa 64 8b 04 25 18 00 00 00 85 c0 75 10 0f 05 <48> 3d 00 f0 ff ff 77 56 c3 0f 1f 44 00 00 48 83 ec 28 48 89 54 24 RSP: 002b:00007ffc64e687c8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000000 RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000000000020000 RCX: 00007fc2e972ade2 RDX: 0000000000020000 RSI: 00007fc2e980d000 RDI: 0000000000000003 RBP: 00007fc2e980d000 R08: 00007fc2e980c010 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000022 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000000000020f00 R13: 0000000000000003 R14: 0000000000020000 R15: 0000000000020000 </TASK> The buggy address belongs to the physical page: page:ffffea00017f6ec0 refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x5fdbb flags: 0xfffffc0000000(node=0|zone=1|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) raw: 000fffffc0000000 0000000000000000 ffffea00017f6ec8 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected Memory state around the buggy address: ffff88805fdbbe80: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff88805fdbbf00: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff >ffff88805fdbbf80: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ^ ffff88805fdbc000: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff88805fdbc080: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ================================================================== This was found when Zheng Yejian sent a patch to convert the event type number assignment to use IDA, which gives the next available number, and this bug showed up in the fuzz testing by Yujie Liu and the kernel test robot. But after further analysis, I found that this behavior is the same as when the event type numbers go past the 16bit max (and the above shows that). As modules have a similar issue, but is dealt with by setting a "WAS_ENABLED" flag when a module event is enabled, and when the module is freed, if any of its events were enabled, the ring buffer that holds that event is also cleared, to prevent reading stale events. The same can be done for dynamic events. If any dynamic event that is being removed was enabled, then make sure the buffers they were enabled in are now cleared.

commit 6cb206508b621a9a0a2c35b60540e399225c8243 upstream. When pid filtering is activated in an instance, all of the events trace files for that instance has the PID_FILTER flag set. This determines whether or not pid filtering needs to be done on the event, otherwise the event is executed as normal. If pid filtering is enabled when an event is created (via a dynamic event or modules), its flag is not updated to reflect the current state, and the events are not filtered properly.

2021-02-17tracing: Do not count ftrace events in top level enable outputSteven Rostedt (VMware)
commit 256cfdd6fdf70c6fcf0f7c8ddb0ebd73ce8f3bc9 upstream. The file /sys/kernel/tracing/events/enable is used to enable all events by echoing in "1", or disabling all events when echoing in "0". To know if all events are enabled, disabled, or some are enabled but not all of them, cating the file should show either "1" (all enabled), "0" (all disabled), or "X" (some enabled but not all of them). This works the same as the "enable" files in the individule system directories (like tracing/events/sched/enable). But when all events are enabled, the top level "enable" file shows "X". The reason is that its checking the "ftrace" events, which are special events that only exist for their format files. These include the format for the function tracer events, that are enabled when the function tracer is enabled, but not by the "enable" file. The check includes these events, which will always be disabled, and even though all true events are enabled, the top level "enable" file will show "X" instead of "1". To fix this, have the check test the event's flags to see if it has the "IGNORE_ENABLE" flag set, and if so, not test it.

On exit, if a process is preempted after the trace_sched_process_exit() tracepoint but before the process is done exiting, then when it gets scheduled in, the function tracers will not filter it properly against the function tracing pid filters. That is because the function tracing pid filters hooks to the sched_process_exit() tracepoint to remove the exiting task's pid from the filter list. Because the filtering happens at the sched_switch tracepoint, when the exiting task schedules back in to finish up the exit, it will no longer be in the function pid filtering tables. This was noticeable in the notrace self tests on a preemptable kernel, as the tests would fail as it exits and preempted after being taken off the notrace filter table and on scheduling back in it would not be in the notrace list, and then the ending of the exit function would trace. The test detected this and would fail.

2019-10-12tracing: Add locked_down checks to the open calls of files created for tracefsSteven Rostedt (VMware)
Added various checks on open tracefs calls to see if tracefs is in lockdown mode, and if so, to return -EPERM. Note, the event format files (which are basically standard on all machines) as well as the enabled_functions file (which shows what is currently being traced) are not lockde down. Perhaps they should be, but it seems counter intuitive to lockdown information to help you know if the system has been modified.

2019-10-12tracing: Add tracing_check_open_get_tr()Steven Rostedt (VMware)
Currently, most files in the tracefs directory test if tracing_disabled is set. If so, it should return -ENODEV. The tracing_disabled is called when tracing is found to be broken. Originally it was done in case the ring buffer was found to be corrupted, and we wanted to prevent reading it from crashing the kernel. But it's also called if a tracing selftest fails on boot. It's a one way switch. That is, once it is triggered, tracing is disabled until reboot. As most tracefs files can also be used by instances in the tracefs directory, they need to be carefully done. Each instance has a trace_array associated to it, and when the instance is removed, the trace_array is freed. But if an instance is opened with a reference to the trace_array, then it requires looking up the trace_array to get its ref counter (as there could be a race with it being deleted and the open itself). Once it is found, a reference is added to prevent the instance from being removed (and the trace_array associated with it freed). Combine the two checks (tracing_disabled and trace_array_get()) into a single helper function. This will also make it easier to add lockdown to tracefs later.

2019-05-25tracing: Make a separate config for trace event self testsSteven Rostedt (VMware)
The trace event self tests enable loop through *all* events, enables each one, one at a time, runs some code to trigger various events (not necessarily the same events), and checks if anything went wrong. The issue is that trace events are usually the least likely start up test to cause a problem, but they take the longest to run (because there are so many events). When one of the other tests trigger a bug, the trace event start up tests causes the bisect to take much longer, because it takes 10s of seconds to get through the trace event tests. By making them a separate config (even though they are enabled by default if start up tests are set), it is possible to turn them off and still run the other tracing start up tests much quicker.

2018-12-08tracing: Lock event_mutex before synth_event_mutexMasami Hiramatsu
synthetic event is using synth_event_mutex for protecting synth_event_list, and event_trigger_write() path acquires locks as below order. event_trigger_write(event_mutex) ->trigger_process_regex(trigger_cmd_mutex) ->event_hist_trigger_func(synth_event_mutex) On the other hand, synthetic event creation and deletion paths call trace_add_event_call() and trace_remove_event_call() which acquires event_mutex. In that case, if we keep the synth_event_mutex locked while registering/unregistering synthetic events, its dependency will be inversed. To avoid this issue, current synthetic event is using a 2 phase process to create/delete events. For example, it searches existing events under synth_event_mutex to check for event-name conflicts, and unlocks synth_event_mutex, then registers a new event under event_mutex locked. Finally, it locks synth_event_mutex and tries to add the new event to the list. But it can introduce complexity and a chance for name conflicts. To solve this simpler, this introduces trace_add_event_call_nolock() and trace_remove_event_call_nolock() which don't acquire event_mutex inside. synthetic event can lock event_mutex before synth_event_mutex to solve the lock dependency issue simpler.

2018-01-18tracing: Fix converting enum's from the map in trace_event_eval_update()Steven Rostedt (VMware)
Since enums do not get converted by the TRACE_EVENT macro into their values, the event format displaces the enum name and not the value. This breaks tools like perf and trace-cmd that need to interpret the raw binary data. To solve this, an enum map was created to convert these enums into their actual numbers on boot up. This is done by TRACE_EVENTS() adding a TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro. Some enums were not being converted. This was caused by an optization that had a bug in it. All calls get checked against this enum map to see if it should be converted or not, and it compares the call's system to the system that the enum map was created under. If they match, then they call is processed. To cut down on the number of iterations needed to find the maps with a matching system, since calls and maps are grouped by system, when a match is made, the index into the map array is saved, so that the next call, if it belongs to the same system as the previous call, could start right at that array index and not have to scan all the previous arrays. The problem was, the saved index was used as the variable to know if this is a call in a new system or not. If the index was zero, it was assumed that the call is in a new system and would keep incrementing the saved index until it found a matching system. The issue arises when the first matching system was at index zero. The next map, if it belonged to the same system, would then think it was the first match and increment the index to one. If the next call belong to the same system, it would begin its search of the maps off by one, and miss the first enum that should be converted. This left a single enum not converted properly. Also add a comment to describe exactly what that index was for. It took me a bit too long to figure out what I was thinking when debugging this issue.

To prevent this, when a module is loaded, if any of its events have been used (signified by the WAS_ENABLED event call flag, which is never cleared), all ring buffers are cleared, just in case any one of them contains event data of the removed event. The problem is, there's no reason to clear all ring buffers if only one (or less than all of them) uses one of the events. Instead, only clear the ring buffers that recorded the events of a module that is being removed. To do this, instead of keeping the WAS_ENABLED flag with the trace event call, move it to the per instance (per ring buffer) event file descriptor. The event file descriptor maps each event to a separate ring buffer instance. Then when the module is removed, only the ring buffers that activated one of the module's events get cleared. The rest are not touched. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2017-06-27tracing: Add support for recording tgid of tasksJoel Fernandes
Inorder to support recording of tgid, the following changes are made: * Introduce a new API (tracing_record_taskinfo) to additionally record the tgid along with the task's comm at the same time. This has has the benefit of not setting trace_cmdline_save before all the information for a task is saved. * Add a new API tracing_record_taskinfo_sched_switch to record task information for 2 tasks at a time (previous and next) and use it from sched_switch probe. * Preserve the old API (tracing_record_cmdline) and create it as a wrapper around the new one so that existing callers aren't affected. * Reuse the existing sched_switch and sched_wakeup probes to record tgid information and add a new option 'record-tgid' to enable recording of tgid When record-tgid option isn't enabled to being with, we take care to make sure that there's isn't memory or runtime overhead.

2017-04-20tracing/ftrace: Add a better way to pass data via the probe functionsSteven Rostedt (VMware)
With the redesign of the registration and execution of the function probes (triggers), data can now be passed from the setup of the probe to the probe callers that are specific to the trace_array it is on. Although, all probes still only affect the toplevel trace array, this change will allow for instances to have their own probes separated from other instances and the top array. That is, something like the stacktrace probe can be set to trace only in an instance and not the toplevel trace array. This isn't implement yet, but this change sets the ground work for the change. When a probe callback is triggered (someone writes the probe format into set_ftrace_filter), it calls register_ftrace_function_probe() passing in init_data that will be used to initialize the probe. Then for every matching function, register_ftrace_function_probe() will call the probe_ops->init() function with the init data that was passed to it, as well as an address to a place holder that is associated with the probe and the instance. The first occurrence will have a NULL in the pointer. The init() function will then initialize it. If other probes are added, or more functions are part of the probe, the place holder will be passed to the init() function with the place holder data that it was initialized to the last time. Then this place_holder is passed to each of the other probe_ops functions, where it can be used in the function callback. When the probe_ops free() function is called, it can be called either with the rip of the function that is being removed from the probe, or zero, indicating that there are no more functions attached to the probe, and the place holder is about to be freed. This gives the probe_ops a way to free the data it assigned to the place holder if it was allocade during the first init call. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2017-04-20ftrace: Dynamically create the probe ftrace_ops for the trace_arraySteven Rostedt (VMware)
In order to eventually have each trace_array instance have its own unique set of function probes (triggers), the trace array needs to hold the ops and the filters for the probes. This is the first step to accomplish this. Instead of having the private data of the probe ops point to the trace_array, create a separate list that the trace_array holds. There's only one private_data for a probe, we need one per trace_array. The probe ftrace_ops will be dynamically created for each instance, instead of being static.

2017-04-20tracing: Pass the trace_array into ftrace_probe_ops functionsSteven Rostedt (VMware)
Pass the trace_array associated to a ftrace_probe_ops into the probe_ops func(), init() and free() functions. The trace_array is the descriptor that describes a tracing instance. This will help create the infrastructure that will allow having function probes unique to tracing instances. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2017-04-20tracing: Have the trace_array hold the list of registered func probesSteven Rostedt (VMware)
Add a link list to the trace_array to hold func probes that are registered. Currently, all function probes are the same for all instances as it was before, that is, only the top level trace_array holds the function probes. But this lays the ground work to have function probes be attached to individual instances, and having the event trigger only affect events in the given instance. But that work is still to be done.

2017-04-20ftrace: Have unregister_ftrace_function_probe_func() return a valueSteven Rostedt (VMware)
Currently unregister_ftrace_function_probe_func() is a void function. It does not give any feedback if an error occurred or no item was found to remove and nothing was done. Change it to return status and success if it removed something. Also update the callers to return that feedback to the user. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2017-04-20ftrace: Remove data field from ftrace_func_probe structureSteven Rostedt (VMware)
No users of the function probes uses the data field anymore. Remove it, and change the init function to take a void *data parameter instead of a void **data, because the init will just get the data that the registering function was received, and there's no state after it is called. The other functions for ftrace_probe_ops still take the data parameter, but it will currently only be passed NULL. It will stay as a parameter for future data to be passed to these functions.

2017-04-20ftrace: Added ftrace_func_mapper for function probe triggersSteven Rostedt (VMware)
In order to move the ops to the function probes directly, they need a way to map function ips to their own data without depending on the infrastructure of the function probes, as the data field will be going away. New helper functions are added that are based on the ftrace_hash code. ftrace_func_mapper functions are there to let the probes map ips to their data. These can be allocated by the probe ops, and referenced in the function callbacks. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2017-04-20ftrace: Pass probe ops to probe functionSteven Rostedt (VMware)
In preparation to cleaning up the probe function registration code, the "data" parameter will eventually be removed from the probe->func() call.
