tracing, perf_events: Protect the buffer from recursion in perf
While tracing using events with perf, if one enables the
lockdep:lock_acquire event, it will infect every other perf
trace events.
Basically, you can enable whatever set of trace events through
perf but if this event is part of the set, the only result we
can get is a long list of lock_acquire events of rcu read lock,
and only that.
This is because of a recursion inside perf.
1) When a trace event is triggered, it will fill a per cpu
buffer and submit it to perf.
2) Perf will commit this event but will also protect some data
using rcu_read_lock
3) A recursion appears: rcu_read_lock triggers a lock_acquire
event that will fill the per cpu event and then submit the
buffer to perf.
4) Perf detects a recursion and ignores it
5) Perf continues its work on the previous event, but its buffer
has been overwritten by the lock_acquire event, it has then
been turned into a lock_acquire event of rcu read lock
Such scenario also happens with lock_release with
rcu_read_unlock().
We could turn the rcu_read_lock() into __rcu_read_lock() to drop
the lock debugging from perf fast path, but that would make us
lose the rcu debugging and that doesn't prevent from other
possible kind of recursion from perf in the future.
This patch adds a recursion protection based on a counter on the
perf trace per cpu buffers to solve the problem.

Drop this wrapper and do its work from linux/types.h wrapper,

perf tools: Fix missing top level callchain
While recursively printing the branches of each callchains, we
forget to display the root. It is never printed.
Say we have:
symbol
f1
f2
|
-------- f3
| f4
|
---------f5
f6
Actually we never see that, instead it displays:
symbol
|
--------- f3
| f4
|
--------- f5
f6
However f1 is always the same than "symbol" and if we are
sorting by symbols first then "symbol", f1 and f2 will be well
aligned like in the above example, so displaying f1 looks
redundant here.
But if we are sorting by something else first (dso, comm,
etc...), displaying f1 doesn't look redundant but rather
necessary because the symbol is not well aligned anymore with
its callchain:
comm dso symbol
f1
f2
|
--------- [...]
And we want the callchain to be obvious.
So we fix the bug by printing the root branch, but we also
filter its first entry if we are sorting by symbols first.

perf tools: Use strsep() over strtok_r() for parsing single line
The second argument in the strtok_r() function is not to be used
generically and can have different implementations. Currently
the function parsing of the perf trace code uses the second
argument to copy data from. This can crash the tool or just have
unpredictable results.
The correct solution is to use strsep() which has a defined
result.
I also added a check to see if the result was correct, and will
break out of the loop in case it fails to parse as expected.

So in annotate now we look at the 'struct hist_entry' instances

the symbols that had some hit and get the map where that
particular hit happened so that we can get the right address to
match with annotate.

KEYS: get_instantiation_keyring() should inc the keyring refcount in all cases
The destination keyring specified to request_key() and co. is made available to
the process that instantiates the key (the slave process started by
/sbin/request-key typically). This is passed in the request_key_auth struct as
the dest_keyring member.
keyctl_instantiate_key and keyctl_negate_key() call get_instantiation_keyring()
to get the keyring to attach the newly constructed key to at the end of
instantiation. This may be given a specific keyring into which a link will be
made later, or it may be asked to find the keyring passed to request_key(). In
the former case, it returns a keyring with the refcount incremented by
lookup_user_key(); in the latter case, it returns the keyring from the
request_key_auth struct - and does _not_ increment the refcount.
The latter case will eventually result in an oops when the keyring prematurely
runs out of references and gets destroyed. The effect may take some time to
show up as the key is destroyed lazily.
To fix this, the keyring returned by get_instantiation_keyring() must always
have its refcount incremented, no matter where it comes from.
This can be tested by setting /etc/request-key.conf to:
#OP TYPE DESCRIPTION CALLOUT INFO PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ...
#====== ======= =============== =============== ===============================
create * test:* * |/bin/false %u %g %d %{user:_display}
negate * * * /bin/keyctl negate %k 10 @u
and then doing:
keyctl add user _display
aaaaaaaa @u
while keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u &&
keyctl list @u;
do
keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u;
sleep 31;
keyctl list @u;
done
which will oops eventually. Changing the negate line to have @u rather than
%S at the end is important as that forces the latter case by passing a special
keyring ID rather than an actual keyring ID.

events: Harmonize event field names and print output names
Now that we can filter based on fields via perf record, people
will start using filter expressions and will expect them to
be obvious.
The primary way to see which fields are available is by looking
at the trace output, such as:
gcc-18676 [000] 343.011728: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
cc1-18677 [000] 343.012727: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
cc1-18677 [000] 343.032692: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
cc1-18677 [000] 343.033690: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
cc1-18677 [000] 343.034687: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
cc1-18677 [000] 343.035686: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
cc1-18677 [000] 343.036684: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
While 'irq==0' filters work, the 'handler==<x>' filter expression
does not work:
$ perf record -R -f -a -e irq:irq_handler_entry --filter handler=timer sleep 1
Error: failed to set filter with 22 (Invalid argument)
The problem is that while an 'irq' field exists and is recognized
as a filter field - 'handler' does not exist - its name is 'name'
in the output.
To solve this, we need to synchronize the printout and the field
names, wherever possible.
In cases where the printout prints a non-field, we enclose
that information in square brackets, such as:
perf-1380 [013] 724.903505: softirq_exit: vec=9 [action=RCU]
perf-1380 [013] 724.904482: softirq_exit: vec=1 [action=TIMER]
This way users can use filter expressions more intuitively: all
fields that show up as 'primary' (non-bracketed) information is
filterable.
This patch harmonizes the field names for all irq, bkl, power,
sched and timer events.
We might in fact think about dropping the print format bit of
generic tracepoints altogether, and just print the fields that
are being recorded.

Américo Wang noticed that we have a locking imbalance in the
error paths of ftrace_profile_set_filter(), causing potential
leakage of event_mutex.
Also clean up other error codepaths related to event_mutex
while at it.
Plus fix an initialized variable in the subsystem filter code.
