it processes the args but does not update the remaining length
of the buffer that the string arguments will be placed in. It
constantly passes in the total size of buffer used instead of
passing in the remaining size of the buffer used. This could cause
issues if the strings are larger than the max size of an event
which could cause the strings to be written beyond what was reserved
on the buffer.

tracing: probeevent: Correctly update remaining space in dynamic area
Commit 9178412ddf ("tracing: probeevent: Return consumed
bytes of dynamic area") improved the string fetching
mechanism by returning the number of required bytes after
copying the argument to the dynamic area. However, this
return value is now only used to increment the pointer
inside the dynamic area but misses updating the 'maxlen'
variable which indicates the remaining space in the dynamic
area.
This means that fetch_store_string() always reads the *total*
size of the dynamic area from the data_loc pointer instead of
the *remaining* size (and passes it along to
strncpy_from_{user,unsafe}) even if we're already about to
copy data into the middle of the dynamic area.

When printing multiple uprobe arguments as strings the output for the
earlier arguments would also include all later string arguments.
This is best explained in an example:
Consider adding a uprobe to a function receiving two strings as
parameters which is at offset 0xa0 in strlib.so and we want to print
both parameters when the uprobe is hit (on x86_64):
$ echo 'p:func /lib/strlib.so:0xa0 +0(%di):string +0(%si):string' > \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
When the function is called as func("foo", "bar") and we hit the probe,
the trace file shows a line like the following:
[...] func: (0x7f7e683706a0) arg1="foobar" arg2="bar"
Note the extra "bar" printed as part of arg1. This behaviour stacks up
for additional string arguments.
The strings are stored in a dynamically growing part of the uprobe
buffer by fetch_store_string() after copying them from userspace via
strncpy_from_user(). The return value of strncpy_from_user() is then
directly used as the required size for the string. However, this does
not take the terminating null byte into account as the documentation
for strncpy_from_user() cleary states that it "[...] returns the
length of the string (not including the trailing NUL)" even though the
null byte will be copied to the destination.
Therefore, subsequent calls to fetch_store_string() will overwrite
the terminating null byte of the most recently fetched string with
the first character of the current string, leading to the
"accumulation" of strings in earlier arguments in the output.
Fix this by incrementing the return value of strncpy_from_user() by
one if we did not hit the maximum buffer size.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.
It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access. But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.
A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model. And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.
This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.
There were a couple of notable cases:
- csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.
- the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
really used it)
- microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout
but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.
I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something. Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for block/storage for 4.21.
Larger than usual, it was a busy round with lots of goodies queued up.
Most notable is the removal of the old IO stack, which has been a long
time coming. No new features for a while, everything coming in this
week has all been fixes for things that were previously merged.
This contains:
- Use atomic counters instead of semaphores for mtip32xx (Arnd)
- Cleanup of the mtip32xx request setup (Christoph)
- Fix for circular locking dependency in loop (Jan, Tetsuo)
- bcache (Coly, Guoju, Shenghui)
* Optimizations for writeback caching
* Various fixes and improvements
- nvme (Chaitanya, Christoph, Sagi, Jay, me, Keith)
* host and target support for NVMe over TCP
* Error log page support
* Support for separate read/write/poll queues
* Much improved polling
* discard OOM fallback
* Tracepoint improvements
- lightnvm (Hans, Hua, Igor, Matias, Javier)
* Igor added packed metadata to pblk. Now drives without metadata
per LBA can be used as well.
* Fix from Geert on uninitialized value on chunk metadata reads.
* Fixes from Hans and Javier to pblk recovery and write path.
* Fix from Hua Su to fix a race condition in the pblk recovery
code.
* Scan optimization added to pblk recovery from Zhoujie.
* Small geometry cleanup from me.
- Conversion of the last few drivers that used the legacy path to
blk-mq (me)
- Removal of legacy IO path in SCSI (me, Christoph)
- Removal of legacy IO stack and schedulers (me)
- Support for much better polling, now without interrupts at all.
blk-mq adds support for multiple queue maps, which enables us to
have a map per type. This in turn enables nvme to have separate
completion queues for polling, which can then be interrupt-less.
Also means we're ready for async polled IO, which is hopefully
coming in the next release.
- Killing of (now) unused block exports (Christoph)
- Unification of the blk-rq-qos and blk-wbt wait handling (Josef)
- Support for zoned testing with null_blk (Masato)
- sx8 conversion to per-host tag sets (Christoph)
- IO priority improvements (Damien)
- mq-deadline zoned fix (Damien)
- Ref count blkcg series (Dennis)
- Lots of blk-mq improvements and speedups (me)
- sbitmap scalability improvements (me)
- Make core inflight IO accounting per-cpu (Mikulas)
- Export timeout setting in sysfs (Weiping)
- Cleanup the direct issue path (Jianchao)
- Export blk-wbt internals in block debugfs for easier debugging
(Ming)
- Lots of other fixes and improvements"

There are several locations that compare constants to the beginning of
string variables to determine what commands should be done, then the
constant length is used to index into the string. This is error prone as the
hard coded numbers have to match the size of the constants. Instead, use the
len returned from str_has_prefix() and remove the open coded string length
sizes.

instead, avoiding printf overhead. In the second instance, the string
we're copying was just created from an snprintf() to a stack buffer, so
we might as well do that printf directly. This naturally leads to moving
the declaration of the str buffer inside the CONFIG_KALLSYMS guard,
which in turn will make gcc inline the function for !CONFIG_KALLSYMS (it
only has a single caller, but the huge stack frame seems to make gcc not
inline it for CONFIG_KALLSYMS).

Building with -Wformat-nonliteral, gcc complains

kernel/trace/trace_output.c:356:3: warning: format not a string literal, argument types not checked [-Wformat-nonliteral]
trace_seq_printf(s, fmt, name);
But seq_print_sym only has a single caller which passes "%s" as fmt, so
we might as well just use that directly. That also paves the way for
further cleanups that will actually make that format string go away
entirely.

Since every var ref for a trigger has an entry in the var_ref[] array,
use that to destroy the var_refs, instead of piecemeal via the field

This allows us to avoid having to keep and treat differently separate

But there is a case in the ARM architecture that passes in a task that is

The following commands will cause a memory leak:

The reason is that the hashes that hold the filters to set_ftrace_filter and

and the instance is removed.

When create_event_filter() fails in set_trigger_filter(), the filter may
still be allocated and needs to be freed. The caller expects the
data->filter to be updated with the new filter, even if the new filter
failed (we could add an error message by setting set_str parameter of
create_event_filter(), but that's another update).
But because the error would just exit, filter was left hanging and
nothing could free it.

The function ftrace_replace_code() is the ftrace engine that does the
work to modify all the nops into the calls to the function callback in
all the functions being traced.
The generic version which is normally called from stop machine, but an
architecture can implement a non stop machine version and still use the
generic ftrace_replace_code(). When an architecture does this,
ftrace_replace_code() may be called from a schedulable context, where
it can allow the code to be preemptible, and schedule out.
In order to allow an architecture to make ftrace_replace_code()
schedulable, a new command flag is added called:
FTRACE_MAY_SLEEP
Which can be or'd to the command that is passed to
ftrace_modify_all_code() that calls ftrace_replace_code() and will have
it call cond_resched() in the loop that modifies the nops into the
calls to the ftrace trampolines.

Add a generic method to remove event from dynamic event
list. This is same as other system under ftrace. You
just need to pass the event name with '!', e.g.
# echo p:new_grp/new_event _do_fork > dynamic_events
This creates an event, and
# echo '!p:new_grp/new_event _do_fork' > dynamic_events
Or,
# echo '!p:new_grp/new_event' > dynamic_events
will remove new_grp/new_event event.
Note that this doesn't check the event prefix (e.g. "p:")
strictly, because the "group/event" name must be unique.

3. hist_unreg_all() is trigger_hist_cmd.unreg_all() which is called

4. onmatch_destroy() and onmatch_create() have long call tree,

ensures called under event_mutex locked.

synthetic event is using synth_event_mutex for protecting
synth_event_list, and event_trigger_write() path acquires
locks as below order.
event_trigger_write(event_mutex)
->trigger_process_regex(trigger_cmd_mutex)
->event_hist_trigger_func(synth_event_mutex)
On the other hand, synthetic event creation and deletion paths
call trace_add_event_call() and trace_remove_event_call()
which acquires event_mutex. In that case, if we keep the
synth_event_mutex locked while registering/unregistering synthetic
events, its dependency will be inversed.
To avoid this issue, current synthetic event is using a 2 phase
process to create/delete events. For example, it searches existing
events under synth_event_mutex to check for event-name conflicts, and
unlocks synth_event_mutex, then registers a new event under event_mutex
locked. Finally, it locks synth_event_mutex and tries to add the
new event to the list. But it can introduce complexity and a chance
for name conflicts.
To solve this simpler, this introduces trace_add_event_call_nolock()
and trace_remove_event_call_nolock() which don't acquire
event_mutex inside. synthetic event can lock event_mutex before
synth_event_mutex to solve the lock dependency issue simpler.
