- Fix build error when CONFIG_PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS is not enabled The tracing of arguments in the function tracer depends on some functions that are only defined when PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS is enabled. In fact, PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS also depends on all the same configs as the function argument tracing requires. Just have the function argument tracing depend on PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS. - Free module_delta for persistent ring buffer instance When an instance holds the persistent ring buffer, it allocates a helper array to hold the deltas between where modules are loaded on the last boot and the current boot. This array needs to be freed when the instance is freed. - Add cond_resched() to loop in ftrace_graph_set_hash() The hash functions in ftrace loop over every function that can be enabled by ftrace. This can be 50,000 functions or more. This loop is known to trigger soft lockup warnings and requires a cond_resched(). The loop in ftrace_graph_set_hash() was missing it. - Fix the event format verifier to include "%*p.." arguments To prevent events from dereferencing stale pointers that can happen if a trace event uses a dereferece pointer to something that was not copied into the ring buffer and can be freed by the time the trace is read, a verifier is called. At boot or module load, the verifier scans the print format string for pointers that can be dereferenced and it checks the arguments to make sure they do not contain something that can be freed. The "%*p" was not handled, which would add another argument and cause the verifier to not only not verify this pointer, but it will look at the wrong argument for every pointer after that. - Fix mcount sorttable building for different endian type target When modifying the ELF file to sort the mcount_loc table in the sorttable.c code, the endianess of the file and the host is used to determine if the bytes need to be swapped when calculations are done. A change was made to the sorting of the mcount_loc that read the values from the ELF file into an array and the swap happened on the filling of the array. But one of the calculations of the array still did the swap when it did not need to. This caused building on a little endian machine for a big endian target to not find the mcount function in the 'nm' table and it zeroed it out, causing there to be no functions available to trace. - Add goto out_unlock jump to rv_register_monitor() on error path One of the error paths in rv_register_monitor() just returned the error when it should have jumped to the out_unlock label to release the mutex. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZ+2tyBQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qjPYAPwJDti6nHTqheFwIa1WzJ3yC2tKRYKt 1E5PYW/2Ct5NmwEAqgg3TvJppXHymVdutLghhGFnlBnyTWMI+KIhparSBw8= =NFM5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.15-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix build error when CONFIG_PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS is not enabled The tracing of arguments in the function tracer depends on some functions that are only defined when PROBE_EVENTS_BTF_ARGS is enabled.
