      tracing/core: fix early free of cpumasks · 2fc1dfbe
      Frederic Weisbecker authored 
      Impact: fix crashes when tracing cpumasks

While ring-buffer allocation, the cpumasks are allocated too,
including the tracing cpumask and the per-cpu file mask handler.
But these cpumasks are freed accidentally just after.
Fix it.

      tracing/ftrace: fix double calls to tracing_start() · ac1d52d0

      Impact: fix a warning during preemptirqsoff selftests

When the preemptirqsoff selftest fails, we see the following
warning:

[    6.050000] Testing tracer preemptirqsoff: .. no entries found ..

[    6.060000]  [<ffffffff8102510b>] init_irqsoff_tracer+0x3b/0x53

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.

      Impact: fix possible locking imbalance

In case of ring buffer resize failure, tracing_set_tracer forgot to

      tracing/syscalls: select kallsysms · 0ea1c415
      Frederic Weisbecker authored 
      Syscall tracing must select kallsysms.

The arch code builds a table to find the syscall metadata by syscall
number. It needs the syscalls names resolution from the symbol table
to know which name found on the syscalls metadatas match a function
pointer from the arch sys_call_table.

      tracing/syscalls: protect thread flag toggling from races · 5be71b61
      Frederic Weisbecker authored 
      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().

      tracing/syscalls: fix missing release of tracing · ac99c58c
      Frederic Weisbecker authored 
      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.
