Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix eventfs to check creating new files for events with names greater
than NAME_MAX. The eventfs lookup needs to check the return result of
simple_lookup().
- Fix the ring buffer to check the proper max data size. Events must be
able to fit on the ring buffer sub-buffer, if it cannot, then it
fails to be written and the logic to add the event is avoided. The
code to check if an event can fit failed to add the possible absolute
timestamp which may make the event not be able to fit. This causes
the ring buffer to go into an infinite loop trying to find a
sub-buffer that would fit the event. Luckily, there's a check that
will bail out if it looped over a 1000 times and it also warns.
The real fix is not to add the absolute timestamp to an event that is
starting at the beginning of a sub-buffer because it uses the
sub-buffer timestamp.
By avoiding the timestamp at the start of the sub-buffer allows
events that pass the first check to always find a sub-buffer that it
can fit on.
- Have large events that do not fit on a trace_seq to print "LINE TOO
BIG" like it does for the trace_pipe instead of what it does now
which is to silently drop the output.
- Fix a memory leak of forgetting to free the spare page that is saved
by a trace instance.
- Update the size of the snapshot buffer when the main buffer is
updated if the snapshot buffer is allocated.
- Fix ring buffer timestamp logic by removing all the places that tried
to put the before_stamp back to the write stamp so that the next
event doesn't add an absolute timestamp. But each of these updates
added a race where by making the two timestamp equal, it was
validating the write_stamp so that it can be incorrectly used for
calculating the delta of an event.
- There's a temp buffer used for printing the event that was using the
event data size for allocation when it needed to use the size of the
entire event (meta-data and payload data)
- For hardening, use "%.*s" for printing the trace_marker output, to
limit the amount that is printed by the size of the event. This was
discovered by development that added a bug that truncated the '\0'
and caused a crash.
- Fix a use-after-free bug in the use of the histogram files when an
instance is being removed.
- Remove a useless update in the rb_try_to_discard of the write_stamp.
The before_stamp was already changed to force the next event to add
an absolute timestamp that the write_stamp is not used. But the
write_stamp is modified again using an unneeded 64-bit cmpxchg.
- Fix several races in the 32-bit implementation of the
rb_time_cmpxchg() that does a 64-bit cmpxchg.
- While looking at fixing the 64-bit cmpxchg, I noticed that because
the ring buffer uses normal cmpxchg, and this can be done in NMI
context, there's some architectures that do not have a working
cmpxchg in NMI context. For these architectures, fail recording
events that happen in NMI context.
