The sentinel value added by the wrapper macros __print_symbolic() et al
prevents the callers from adding their own trailing comma. This makes
constructing symbol list dynamically based on kconfig values tedious.
Drop the sentinel elements, so callers can either specify the trailing
comma or not, just like in regular array initializers.

Add support for displaying bitmasks in human-readable list format (e.g.,
0,2-5,7) in addition to the default hexadecimal bitmap representation.
This is particularly useful when tracing CPU masks and other large
bitmasks where individual bit positions are more meaningful than their
hexadecimal encoding.
When the "bitmask-list" option is enabled, the printk "%*pbl" format
specifier is used to render bitmasks as comma-separated ranges, making
trace output easier to interpret for complex CPU configurations and
large bitmask values.

When printing a dynamic array in a trace event, the method is rather ugly.
It has the format of:
__print_array(__get_dynamic_array(array),
__get_dynmaic_array_len(array) / el_size, el_size)
Since dynamic arrays are known to the tracing infrastructure, create a
helper macro that does the above for you.
__print_dynamic_array(array, el_size)
Which would expand to the same output.

With the rework of how the __string() handles dynamic strings where it
saves off the source string in field in the helper structure[1], the
assignment of that value to the trace event field is stored in the helper
value and does not need to be passed in again.
This means that with:
__string(field, mystring)
Which use to be assigned with __assign_str(field, mystring), no longer
needs the second parameter and it is unused. With this, __assign_str()
will now only get a single parameter.
There's over 700 users of __assign_str() and because coccinelle does not
handle the TRACE_EVENT() macro I ended up using the following sed script:
git grep -l __assign_str | while read a ; do
sed -e 's/\(__assign_str([^,]*[^ ,]\) *,[^;]*/\1)/' $a > /tmp/test-file;
mv /tmp/test-file $a;
done
I then searched for __assign_str() that did not end with ';' as those
were multi line assignments that the sed script above would fail to catch.
Note, the same updates will need to be done for:
__assign_str_len()
__assign_rel_str()
__assign_rel_str_len()
I tested this with both an allmodconfig and an allyesconfig (build only for both).

As __assign_str() no longer uses its "src" parameter, there's a check to
make sure nothing depends on it being different than what was passed to
__string(). It originally just compared the pointer passed to __string()
with the pointer passed into __assign_str() via the "src" parameter. But
there's a couple of outliers that just pass in a quoted string constant,
where comparing the pointers is UB to the compiler, as the compiler is
free to create multiple copies of the same string constant.
Instead, just use strcmp(). It may slow down the trace event, but this
will eventually be removed.
Also, fix the issue of passing NULL to strcmp() by adding a WARN_ON() to
make sure that both "src" and the pointer saved in __string() are either
both NULL or have content, and then checking if "src" is not NULL before
performing the strcmp().

The __string() helper macro of the TRACE_EVENT() macro is used to
determine how much of the ring buffer needs to be allocated to fit the
given source string. Some trace events have a string that is dependent on
another variable that could be NULL, and in those cases the string is
passed in to be NULL.
The __string() macro can handle being passed in a NULL pointer for which
it will turn it into "(null)". It does that with:
strlen((src) ? (const char *)(src) : "(null)") + 1
But if src itself has the same conditional type it can confuse the
compiler. That is:
__string(r ? dev(r)->name : NULL)
Would turn into:
strlen((r ? dev(r)->name : NULL) ? (r ? dev(r)->name : NULL) : "(null)" + 1
For which the compiler thinks that NULL is being passed to strlen() and
gives this kind of warning:
./include/trace/stages/stage5_get_offsets.h:50:21: warning: argument 1 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull]
50 | strlen((src) ? (const char *)(src) : "(null)") + 1)
Instead, create a static inline function that takes the src string and
will return the string if it is not NULL and will return "(null)" if it
is. This will then make the strlen() line:
strlen(__string_src(src)) + 1
Where the compiler can see that strlen() will not end up with NULL and
does not warn about it.
Note that this depends on commit 51270d573a ("tracing/net_sched: Fix
tracepoints that save qdisc_dev() as a string") being applied, as passing
the qdisc_dev() into __string_src() will give an error.

The WARN_ON() check in __assign_str() to catch where the source variable
to the macro doesn't match the source variable to __string() gives an
error in clang:
>> include/trace/events/sunrpc.h:703:4: warning: result of comparison against a string literal is unspecified (use an explicit string comparison function instead) [-Wstring-compare]
670 | __assign_str(progname, "unknown");
That's because the __assign_str() macro has:
WARN_ON_ONCE((src) != __data_offsets.dst##_ptr_);
Where "src" is a string literal. Clang warns when comparing a string
literal directly as it is undefined to what the value of the literal is.
Since this is still to make sure the same string that goes to __string()
is the same as __assign_str(), for string literals do a test for that and
then use strcmp() in those cases
Note that this depends on commit 51270d573a ("tracing/net_sched: Fix
tracepoints that save qdisc_dev() as a string") being applied, as this was
what found that bug.

),
TP_fast_assign(
__assign_str(my_string, s->string);

TP_printk("%s", __get_str(my_string))
There's even some code that may call a function helper to find the
s->string value. The problem with the above is that the work to get the

__assign_str().
The length of the string is calculated via a strlen(), not once, but
twice. Once during the __string() macro and again in __assign_str(). But
the length is actually already recorded in the data location and here's no
reason to call strlen() again.
Just use the saved length that was saved in the __string() code for the
__assign_str() code.

A __field() in the TRACE_EVENT() macro is used to set up the fields of the
trace event data. It is for single storage units (word, char, int,
pointer, etc) and not for complex structures or arrays. Unfortunately,
there's nothing preventing the build from accepting:
__field(int, arr[5]);
from building. It will turn into a array value. This use to work fine, as
the offset and size use to be determined by the macro using the field name,
but things have changed and the offset and size are now determined by the
type. So the above would only be size 4, and the next field will be
located 4 bytes from it (instead of 20).
The proper way to declare static arrays is to use the __array() macro.
Instead of __field(int, arr[5]) it should be __array(int, arr, 5).
Add some macro tricks to the building of a trace event from the
TRACE_EVENT() macro such that __field(int, arr[5]) will fail to build. A
comment by the failure will explain why the build failed.

Then Mathieu pointed out that this behavioral change was caused by the
use of __stringify(_len), which happens to work on macros, but not on enum
labels. And he also gave the suggestion on how to fix it:
:One possible solution to make this more robust would be to extend
:struct trace_event_fields with one more field that indicates the length
:of an array as an actual integer, without storing it in its stringified
:form in the type, and do the formatting in f_show where it belongs.
The result as follows after this change,

As the trace macros have been put into their own staging files, have perf
take advantage of this and use the tracefs stage 6 macros that the "fast

To differentiate between long arrays and cpumasks, the __cpumask() field
was created. Part of the TRACE_EVENT() macros test if the type is signed
or not by using the is_signed_type() macro. The __cpumask() field used the
__dynamic_array() helper but because cpumask_t is a structure, it could
not be used in the is_signed_type() macro as that would fail to build, so
instead it passed in the pointer to cpumask_t.
Unfortunately, that creates in the format file:
field:__data_loc cpumask_t *[] mask; offset:36; size:4; signed:0;
Which looks like an array of pointers to cpumask_t and not a cpumask_t
type, which is misleading to user space parsers.
Douglas Raillard pointed out that the "[]" are also misleading, as
cpumask_t is not an array.
Since cpumask() hasn't been created yet, and the parsers currently fail on
it (but will still produce the raw output), make it be:
field:__data_loc cpumask_t mask; offset:36; size:4; signed:0;
Which is the correct type of the field.
Then the parsers can be updated to handle this.

Fixes: 8230f27b1c ("tracing: Add __cpumask to denote a trace event field that is a cpumask_t")
Reported-by: Douglas Raillard <[email protected]>

The trace events have a __bitmask field that can be used for anything
that requires bitmasks. Although currently it is only used for CPU
masks, it could be used in the future for any type of bitmasks.
There is some user space tooling that wants to know if a field is a CPU
mask and not just some random unsigned long bitmask. Introduce
"__cpumask()" helper functions that work the same as the current
__bitmask() helpers but displays in the format file:
field:__data_loc cpumask_t *[] mask; offset:36; size:4; signed:0;
Instead of:
field:__data_loc unsigned long[] mask; offset:32; size:4; signed:0;
The main difference is the type. Instead of "unsigned long" it is
"cpumask_t *". Note, this type field needs to be a real type in the
__dynamic_array() logic that both __cpumask and__bitmask use, but the
comparison field requires it to be a scalar type whereas cpumask_t is a
structure (non-scalar). But everything works when making it a pointer.
Valentin added changes to remove the need of passing in "nr_bits" and the
__cpumask will always use nr_cpumask_bits as its size.

alignof() gives an alignment of types as they would be as standalone
variables. But alignment in structures might be different, and when
building the fields of events, the alignment must be the actual
alignment otherwise the field offsets may not match what they actually
are.
This caused trace-cmd to crash, as libtraceevent did not check if the
field offset was bigger than the event. The write_msr and read_msr
events on 32 bit had their fields incorrect, because it had a u64 field
between two ints. alignof(u64) would give 8, but the u64 field was at a
4 byte alignment.
Define a macro as:
ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) ((int)(offsetof(struct {char a; type b;}, b)))
which gives the actual alignment of types in a structure.

If an instance of tracing enables the same trace event as another
instance, or the top level instance, or even perf, then the va_list passed
into some tracepoints can be used more than once.
As va_list can only be traversed once, this can cause issues:
# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/qla2xxx/trace
cat-56106 [012] ..... 2419873.470098: ql_dbg_log: qla2xxx [0000:05:00.0]-1054:14: Entered (null).

The instance version is corrupted because the top level instance iterated
the va_list first.
Use va_copy() in the __assign_vstr() macro to make sure that each trace
event for each use case gets a fresh va_list.

There's several places that open code the following logic:
TP_STRUCT__entry(__dynamic_array(char, msg, MSG_MAX)),
TP_fast_assign(vsnprintf(__get_str(msg), MSG_MAX, vaf->fmt, *vaf->va);)
To load a string created by variable array va_list.
The main issue with this approach is that "MSG_MAX" usage in the
__dynamic_array() portion. That actually just reserves the MSG_MAX in the
event, and even wastes space because there's dynamic meta data also saved
in the event to denote the offset and size of the dynamic array. It would
have been better to just use a static __array() field.
Instead, create __vstring() and __assign_vstr() that work like __string
and __assign_str() but instead of taking a destination string to copy,
take a format string and a va_list pointer and fill in the values.
It uses the helper:
#define __trace_event_vstr_len(fmt, va) \
({ \
va_list __ap; \
int __ret; \
\
va_copy(__ap, *(va)); \
__ret = vsnprintf(NULL, 0, fmt, __ap) + 1; \
va_end(__ap); \
\
min(__ret, TRACE_EVENT_STR_MAX); \
})
To figure out the length to store the string. It may be slightly slower as
it needs to run the vsnprintf() twice, but it now saves space on the ring
buffer.

When looking for implementation of different phases of the creation of the
TRACE_EVENT() macro, it is pretty useless when all helper macro
redefinitions are in files labeled "stageX_defines.h". Rename them to
state which phase the files are for. For instance, when looking for the
defines that are used to create the event fields, seeing
"stage4_event_fields.h" gives the developer a good idea that the defines
are in that file.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the
kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a
byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task
can then enable that event like any other event, which will change
the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start
writing the event to the tracing buffer.
- Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When
set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot
up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep
the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot
up has tracing as well.
- Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type
descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum,
the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that
array.
- Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the
TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This
will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not
be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports.
- Fixes to tracing error logging.
- Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events
for mapping).
