Fixes Coccinelle/coccicheck warnings reported by do_div.cocci.

Compared to do_div(), div64_u64() does not implicitly cast the divisor and
does not unnecessarily calculate the remainder.

<id>urn:sha1:19f0423fd55c301c8edaea286e568ec657f42750</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently ftrace only dumps the global trace buffer on an OOPs. For
debugging a production usecase, instance trace will be helpful to
check specific problems since global trace buffer may be used for
other purposes.

This patch extend the ftrace_dump_on_oops parameter to dump a specific
or multiple trace instances:

  - ftrace_dump_on_oops=0: as before -- don't dump
  - ftrace_dump_on_oops[=1]: as before -- dump the global trace buffer
  on all CPUs
  - ftrace_dump_on_oops=2 or =orig_cpu: as before -- dump the global
  trace buffer on CPU that triggered the oops
  - ftrace_dump_on_oops=&lt;instance_name&gt;: new behavior -- dump the
  tracing instance matching &lt;instance_name&gt;
  - ftrace_dump_on_oops[=2/orig_cpu],&lt;instance1_name&gt;[=2/orig_cpu],
  &lt;instrance2_name&gt;[=2/orig_cpu]: new behavior -- dump the global trace
  buffer and multiple instance buffer on all CPUs, or only dump on CPU
  that triggered the oops if =2 or =orig_cpu is given

Also, the sysctl node can handle the input accordingly.

Reduce the number of kernel-doc warnings from 52 down to 10, i.e.,
fix 42 kernel-doc warnings by (a) using the Returns: format for
function return values or (b) using "@var:" instead of "@var -"
for function parameter descriptions.

Fix one return values list so that it is formatted correctly when
rendered for output.

Spell "non-zero" with a hyphen in several places.

<title>tracing: Decrement the snapshot if the snapshot trigger fails to register</title>

Running the ftrace selftests caused the ring buffer mapping test to fail.
Investigating, I found that the snapshot counter would be incremented
every time a snapshot trigger was added, even if that snapshot trigger
failed.

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
 # echo "snapshot" &gt; events/sched/sched_process_fork/trigger
 # echo "snapshot" &gt; events/sched/sched_process_fork/trigger
 -bash: echo: write error: File exists

That second one that fails increments the snapshot counter but doesn't
decrement it. It needs to be decremented when the snapshot fails.

Running the ftrace selftests caused the ring buffer mapping test to fail.
Investigating, I found that the snapshot counter would be incremented
every time a tracer that uses the snapshot is enabled even if the snapshot
was used by the previous tracer.

That is:

 # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
 # echo wakeup_rt &gt; current_tracer
 # echo wakeup_dl &gt; current_tracer
 # echo nop &gt; current_tracer

would leave the snapshot counter at 1 and not zero. That's because the
enabling of wakeup_dl would increment the counter again but the setting
the tracer to nop would only decrement it once.

Do not arm the snapshot for a tracer if the previous tracer already had it
armed.

Instead of using UTS_RELEASE, use init_utsname()-&gt;release, which means that
we don't need to rebuild the code just for the git head commit changing.

<title>tracing/user_events: Introduce multi-format events</title>
<updated>2024-03-18T14:13:03Z</updated>

<id>urn:sha1:64805e4039f1687b9857034123a9ec10bb9abddd</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently user_events supports 1 event with the same name and must have
the exact same format when referenced by multiple programs. This opens
an opportunity for malicious or poorly thought through programs to
create events that others use with different formats. Another scenario
is user programs wishing to use the same event name but add more fields
later when the software updates. Various versions of a program may be
running side-by-side, which is prevented by the current single format
requirement.

Add a new register flag (USER_EVENT_REG_MULTI_FORMAT) which indicates
the user program wishes to use the same user_event name, but may have
several different formats of the event. When this flag is used, create
the underlying tracepoint backing the user_event with a unique name
per-version of the format. It's important that existing ABI users do
not get this logic automatically, even if one of the multi format
events matches the format. This ensures existing programs that create
events and assume the tracepoint name will match exactly continue to
work as expected. Add logic to only check multi-format events with
other multi-format events and single-format events to only check
single-format events during find.

Change system name of the multi-format event tracepoint to ensure that
multi-format events are isolated completely from single-format events.
This prevents single-format names from conflicting with multi-format
events if they end with the same suffix as the multi-format events.

Add a register_name (reg_name) to the user_event struct which allows for
split naming of events. We now have the name that was used to register
within user_events as well as the unique name for the tracepoint. Upon
registering events ensure matches based on first the reg_name, followed
by the fields and format of the event. This allows for multiple events
with the same registered name to have different formats. The underlying
tracepoint will have a unique name in the format of {reg_name}.{unique_id}.

For example, if both "test u32 value" and "test u64 value" are used with
the USER_EVENT_REG_MULTI_FORMAT the system would have 2 unique
tracepoints. The dynamic_events file would then show the following:
  u:test u64 count
  u:test u32 count

The actual tracepoint names look like this:
  test.0
  test.1

Both would be under the new user_events_multi system name to prevent the
older ABI from being used to squat on multi-formatted events and block
their use.

Deleting events via "!u:test u64 count" would only delete the first
tracepoint that matched that format. When the delete ABI is used all
events with the same name will be attempted to be deleted. If
per-version deletion is required, user programs should either not use
persistent events or delete them via dynamic_events.

<title>tracing/user_events: Prepare find/delete for same name events</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1e953de9e9b4ca77a9ce0fc17a0778eba3a4ca64</id>
<content type='text'>
The current code for finding and deleting events assumes that there will
never be cases when user_events are registered with the same name, but
different formats. Scenarios exist where programs want to use the same
name but have different formats. An example is multiple versions of a
program running side-by-side using the same event name, but with updated
formats in each version.

This change does not yet allow for multi-format events. If user_events
are registered with the same name but different arguments the programs
see the same return values as before. This change simply makes it
possible to easily accommodate for this.

Update find_user_event() to take in argument parameters and register
flags to accommodate future multi-format event scenarios. Have find
validate argument matching and return error pointers to cover when
an existing event has the same name but different format. Update
callers to handle error pointer logic.

Move delete_user_event() to use hash walking directly now that
find_user_event() has changed. Delete all events found that match the
register name, stop if an error occurs and report back to the user.

Update user_fields_match() to cover list_empty() scenarios now that
find_user_event() uses it directly. This makes the logic consistent
across several callsites.

When a ring-buffer is memory mapped by user-space, no trace or
ring-buffer swap is possible. This means the snapshot feature is
mutually exclusive with the memory mapping. Having a refcount on
snapshot users will help to know if a mapping is possible or not.

Instead of relying on the global trace_types_lock, a new spinlock is
introduced to serialize accesses to trace_array-&gt;snapshot. This intends
to allow access to that variable in a context where the mmap lock is
already held.

<title>ring-buffer: Make wake once of ring_buffer_wait() more robust</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b70f2938242a028f8e9473781ede175486a59dc8</id>
<content type='text'>
The default behavior of ring_buffer_wait() when passed a NULL "cond"
parameter is to exit the function the first time it is woken up. The
current implementation uses a counter that starts at zero and when it is
greater than one it exits the wait_event_interruptible().

But this relies on the internal working of wait_event_interruptible() as
that code basically has:

  if (cond)
    return;
  prepare_to_wait();
  if (!cond)
    schedule();
  finish_wait();

That is, cond is called twice before it sleeps. The default cond of
ring_buffer_wait() needs to account for that and wait for its counter to
increment twice before exiting.

Instead, use the seq/atomic_inc logic that is used by the tracing code
that calls this function. Add an atomic_t seq to rb_irq_work and when cond
is NULL, have the default callback take a descriptor as its data that
holds the rbwork and the value of the seq when it started.

The wakeups will now increment the rbwork-&gt;seq and the cond callback will
simply check if that number is different, and no longer have to rely on
the implementation of wait_event_interruptible().
