Merge tag 'trace-ring-buffer-v6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

Pull ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt:

- tracing/ring-buffer: persistent buffer across reboots

This allows for the tracing instance ring buffer to stay persistent
across reboots. The way this is done is by adding to the kernel
command line:

trace_instance=boot_map@0x285400000:12M

This will reserve 12 megabytes at the address 0x285400000, and then
map the tracing instance "boot_map" ring buffer to that memory. This
will appear as a normal instance in the tracefs system:

/sys/kernel/tracing/instances/boot_map

A user could enable tracing in that instance, and on reboot or kernel
crash, if the memory is not wiped by the firmware, it will recreate
the trace in that instance. For example, if one was debugging a
shutdown of a kernel reboot:

# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo function > instances/boot_map/current_tracer
# reboot
[..]
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# tail instances/boot_map/trace

swapper/0-1 [000] d..1. 164.549822: acpi_os_write_port <-acpi_reboot

On reboot, the buffer is examined to make sure it is valid. The
validation check even steps through every event to make sure the meta
data of the event is correct. If any test fails, it will simply reset
the buffer, and the buffer will be empty on boot.

- Allow the tracing persistent boot buffer to use the "reserve_mem"
option

Instead of having the admin find a physical address to store the
persistent buffer, which can be very tedious if they have to
administrate several different machines, allow them to use the
"reserve_mem" option that will find a location for them. It is not as
reliable because of KASLR, as the loading of the kernel in different
locations can cause the memory allocated to be inconsistent. Booting
with "nokaslr" can make reserve_mem more reliable.

- Have function graph tracer handle offsets from a previous boot.

The ring buffer output from a previous boot may have different
addresses due to kaslr. Have the function graph tracer handle these
by using the delta from the previous boot to the new boot address
space.

- Only reset the saved meta offset when the buffer is started or reset

In the persistent memory meta data, it holds the previous address
space information, so that it can calculate the delta to have
function tracing work. But this gets updated after being read to hold
the new address space. But if the buffer isn't used for that boot, on
reboot, the delta is now calculated from the previous boot and not
the boot that holds the data in the ring buffer. This causes the
functions not to be shown. Do not save the address space information
of the current kernel until it is being recorded.

- Add a magic variable to test the valid meta data

Add a magic variable in the meta data that can also be used for
validation. The validator of the previous buffer doesn't need this
magic data, but it can be used if the meta data is changed by a new
kernel, which may have the same format that passes the validator but
is used differently. This magic number can also be used as a
"versioning" of the meta data.

- Align user space mapped ring buffer sub buffers to improve TLB
entries

Linus mentioned that the mapped ring buffer sub buffers were
misaligned between the meta page and the sub-buffers, so that if the
sub-buffers were bigger than PAGE_SIZE, it wouldn't allow the TLB to
use bigger entries.

- Add new kernel command line "traceoff" to disable tracing on boot for
instances

If tracing is enabled for a boot instance, there needs a way to be
able to disable it on boot so that new events do not get entered into
the ring buffer and be mixed with events from a previous boot, as
that can be confusing.

- Allow trace_printk() to go to other instances

Currently, trace_printk() can only go to the top level instance. When
debugging with a persistent buffer, it is really useful to be able to
add trace_printk() to go to that buffer, so that you have access to
them after a crash.

- Do not use "bin_printk()" for traces to a boot instance

The bin_printk() saves only a pointer to the printk format in the
ring buffer, as the reader of the buffer can still have access to it.
But this is not the case if the buffer is from a previous boot. If
the trace_printk() is going to a "persistent" buffer, it will use the
slower version that writes the printk format into the buffer.

- Add command line option to allow trace_printk() to go to an instance

Allow the kernel command line to define which instance the
trace_printk() goes to, instead of forcing the admin to set it for
every boot via the tracefs options.

- Start a document that explains how to use tracefs to debug the kernel

- Add some more kernel selftests to test user mapped ring buffer

tracing: Add option to set an instance to be the trace_printk destination

Add a option "trace_printk_dest" that will make the tracing instance the
location that trace_printk() will go to. This is useful if the
trace_printk or one of the top level tracers is too noisy and there's a
need to separate the two. Then an instance can be created, the
trace_printk can be set to go there instead, where it will not be lost in
the noise of the top level tracer.

Note, only one instance can be the destination of trace_printk at a time.
If an instance sets this flag, the instance that had it set will have it
cleared. There is always one instance that has this set. By default, that
is the top instance. This flag cannot be cleared from the top instance.
Doing so will result in an -EINVAL. The only way this flag can be cleared
from the top instance is by another instance setting it.
