65796348e0 blktrace: fix wrong calculation of RWBS
Impact: fix the output of IO type category characters

Trace categories are the upper 16 bits, not the lower 16 bits.

b125130b22 blktrace: avoid accessing NULL bdev->bd_disk
bdev->bd_disk can be NULL, if the block device is not opened.

Try this against an unmounted partition, and you'll see NULL dereference:

3bf832ce1f tracing/ring-buffer: fix non cpu hotplug case
Impact: fix warning with irqsoff tracer

The ring buffer allocates its buffers on pre-smp time (early_initcall).
It means that, at first, only the boot cpu buffer is allocated and
the ring-buffer cpumask only has the boot cpu set (cpu_online_mask).

Later, the secondary cpu will show up and the ring-buffer will be notified
about this event: the appropriate buffer will be allocated and the cpumask
will be updated.

Unfortunately, if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG, the ring-buffer will not be
notified about the secondary cpus, meaning that the cpumask will have
only the cpu boot set, and only one cpu buffer allocated.

We fix that by using cpu_possible_mask if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG.

This patch fixes the following warning with irqsoff tracer running:

Because this tracer may try to swap two cpu ring buffers for an

This patch might also fix a fair loss of traces due to unallocated buffers

[    4.660164] .. no entries found ..FAILED!

During the selftest of irqsoff tracer, we do that:

	/* disable interrupts for a bit */
	local_irq_disable();
	udelay(100);
	local_irq_enable();
	/* stop the tracing. */
	tracing_stop();
	/* check both trace buffers */
	ret = trace_test_buffer(tr, NULL);

If a callsite performs a new max delay with irqs off just after
tracing_stop, update_max_tr_single() -> ring_buffer_swap_cpu()
will be called with the buffers disabled by tracing_stop(), hence
the warning, then ring_buffer_swap_cpu() return -EAGAIN and
update_max_tr_single() complains.

Fix it by also stopping the tracer before stopping the tracing globally.
A similar situation can happen with preemptoff and preemptirqsoff tracers
where we apply the same fix.

In case there is no valid command line mapping for a pid
trace_find_cmdline() returns without updating the comm buffer. The
trace dump keeps the previous entry which results in confusing trace
output:

2c7eea4c62 tracing: replace the crude (unsigned) -1 hackery
Impact: cleanup

The command line recorder uses (unsigned) -1 to mark non mapped
entries in the pid to command line maps. The validity check is
completely unintuitive: idx >= SAVED_CMDLINES

There is no need for such casting games. Use a constant to mark
unmapped entries and check for that constant to make the code readable
and understandable.

18aecd362a tracing: stop command line recording when tracing is disabled
Impact: prevent overwrite of command line entries

When the tracer is stopped the command line recording continues to
record. The check for tracing_is_on() is not sufficient here as the
ringbuffer status is not affected by setting
debug/tracing/tracing_enabled to 0. On a non idle system this can
result in the loss of the command line information for the stopped
trace, which makes the trace harder to read and analyse.

Check tracer_enabled to allow further recording.

6adaad14d7 tracing: stop comm recording on tracing off
Impact: fix for losing comms in trace

The command lines of tasks are cached at sched switch to not need
to record them at every trace point.  Disabling the tracing on stops
the recording of traces, but does not stop the caching of command lines.
When the tracing is off the cache may overflow and cause the tracing
to show incorrect tasks matching the PIDs.

This patch disables prevents updates to the comm cache when the ring buffer
is off.

4ca5308523 tracing: protect reader of cmdline output
Impact: fix to one cause of incorrect comm outputs in trace

The spinlock only protected the creation of a comm <=> pid pair.
But it was possible that a reader could look up a pid, and get the
wrong comm because it had no locking.

This also required changing trace_find_cmdline to copy the comm cache
and not just send back a pointer to it.

warning:

This is because in fail case, the preemptirqsoff tracer selftest calls twice
the tracing_start() function:

int
trace_selftest_startup_preemptirqsoff(struct tracer *trace, struct trace_array *tr)
{
        if (!ret && !count) {
                printk(KERN_CONT ".. no entries found ..");
                ret = -1;
                tracing_start(); <-----
                goto out;
        }
        [...]
out:
        trace->reset(tr);
        tracing_start(); <------
        tracing_max_latency = save_max;

        return ret;
}

Since it is well handled in the out path, we don't need the conditional one.

5be71b61f1 tracing/syscalls: protect thread flag toggling from races
Impact: fix syscall tracer enable/disable race

The current thread flag toggling is racy as shown in the following
scenario:

- task A is the last user of syscall tracing, it releases the
  TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE on each tasks

- at the same time task B start syscall tracing. refcount == 0 so
  it sets up TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE on each tasks.

The effect of the mixup is unpredictable.
So this fix adds a mutex on {start,stop}_syscall_tracing().

ac99c58c9e tracing/syscalls: fix missing release of tracing
Impact: fix 'stuck' syscall tracer

The syscall tracer uses a refcounter to enable several users
simultaneously.

But the refcounter did not behave correctly and always restored
its value to 0 after calling start_syscall_tracing(). Therefore,
stop_syscall_tracing() couldn't release correctly the tasks from
tracing.

Also the tracer forgot to reset the buffer when it is released.

Drop the pointless refcount decrement on start_syscall_tracing()
and reset the buffer when we release the tracer.

This fixes two reported issue:

- when we switch from syscall tracer to another tracer, syscall
  tracing continued.

- incorrect use of the refcount.

bed1ffca02 tracing/syscalls: core infrastructure for syscalls tracing, enhancements
Impact: new feature

This adds the generic support for syscalls tracing. This is
currently exploited through a devoted tracer but other tracing
engines can use it. (They just have to play with
{start,stop}_ftrace_syscalls() and use the display callbacks
unless they want to override them.)

The syscalls prototypes definitions are abused here to steal
some metadata informations:

- syscall name, param types, param names, number of params

The syscall addr is not directly saved during this definition
because we don't know if its prototype is available in the
namespace. But we don't really need it. The arch has just to
build a function able to resolve the syscall number to its
metadata struct.

The current tracer prints the syscall names, parameters names
and values (and their types optionally). Currently the value is
a raw hex but higher level values diplaying is on my TODO list.

7f96f93f02 tracing: move binary buffers into per cpu directory

This patch moves the binary buffers into the per_cpu_directory:

trace  trace_pipe  trace_pipe_raw
