ftrace: Fix unregister ftrace_ops accounting
commit 30fb6aa74011dcf595f306ca2727254d708b786e upstream. Multiple users of the function tracer can register their functions with the ftrace_ops structure. The accounting within ftrace will update the counter on each function record that is being traced. When the ftrace_ops filtering adds or removes functions, the function records will be updated accordingly if the ftrace_ops is still registered. When a ftrace_ops is removed, the counter of the function records, that the ftrace_ops traces, are decremented. When they reach zero the functions that they represent are modified to stop calling the mcount code. When changes are made, the code is updated via stop_machine() with a command passed to the function to tell it what to do. There is an ENABLE and DISABLE command that tells the called function to enable or disable the functions. But the ENABLE is really a misnomer as it should just update the records, as records that have been enabled and now have a count of zero should be disabled. The DISABLE command is used to disable all functions regardless of their counter values. This is the big off switch and is not the complement of the ENABLE command. To make matters worse, when a ftrace_ops is unregistered and there is another ftrace_ops registered, neither the DISABLE nor the ENABLE command are set when calling into the stop_machine() function and the records will not be updated to match their counter. A command is passed to that function that will update the mcount code to call the registered callback directly if it is the only one left. This means that the ftrace_ops that is still registered will have its callback called by all functions that have been set for it as well as the ftrace_ops that was just unregistered. Here's a way to trigger this bug. Compile the kernel with CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER set and with CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH not set: CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER=y # CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH is not set This will force the function profiler to use the function tracer instead of the function graph tracer. # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo schedule > set_ftrace_filter # echo function > current_tracer # cat set_ftrace_filter schedule # cat trace # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 692/68108025 #P:4 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | kworker/0:2-909 [000] .... 531.235574: schedule <-worker_thread <idle>-0 [001] .N.. 531.235575: schedule <-cpu_idle kworker/0:2-909 [000] .... 531.235597: schedule <-worker_thread sshd-2563 [001] .... 531.235647: schedule <-schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled # echo 0 > function_porfile_enabled # cat set_ftrace_filter schedule # cat trace # tracer: function # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 159701/118821262 #P:4 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | <idle>-0 [002] ...1 604.870655: local_touch_nmi <-cpu_idle <idle>-0 [002] d..1 604.870655: enter_idle <-cpu_idle <idle>-0 [002] d..1 604.870656: atomic_notifier_call_chain <-enter_idle <idle>-0 [002] d..1 604.870656: __atomic_notifier_call_chain <-atomic_notifier_call_chain The same problem could have happened with the trace_probe_ops, but they are modified with the set_frace_filter file which does the update at closure of the file. The simple solution is to change ENABLE to UPDATE and call it every time an ftrace_ops is unregistered.
