[PATCH v9 00/12] user_events: Enable user processes to create and write to trace events

[Beau Belgrave]

User mode processes that wish to use trace events to get data into
ftrace, perf, eBPF, etc are limited to uprobes today. The user events
features enables an ABI for user mode processes to create and write to
trace events that are isolated from kernel level trace events. This
enables a faster path for tracing from user mode data as well as opens
managed code to participate in trace events, where stub locations are
dynamic.

User processes often want to trace only when it's useful. To enable this
a set of pages are mapped into the user process space that indicate the
current state of the user events that have been registered. User
processes can check if their event is hooked to a trace/probe, and if it
is, emit the event data out via the write() syscall.

Two new files are introduced into tracefs to accomplish this:
user_events_status - This file is mmap'd into participating user mode
processes to indicate event status.

user_events_data - This file is opened and register/delete ioctl's are
issued to create/open/delete trace events that can be used for tracing.

The typical scenario is on process start to mmap user_events_status. Processes
then register the events they plan to use via the REG ioctl. The ioctl reads
and updates the passed in user_reg struct. The status_index of the struct is
used to know the byte in the status page to check for that event. The
write_index of the struct is used to describe that event when writing out to
the fd that was used for the ioctl call. The data must always include this
index first when writing out data for an event. Data can be written either by
write() or by writev().

For example, in memory:
int index;
char data[];

Psuedo code example of typical usage:
struct user_reg reg;

int page_fd = open("user_events_status", O_RDWR);
char *page_data = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, page_fd, 0);
close(page_fd);

int data_fd = open("user_events_data", O_RDWR);

reg.size = sizeof(reg);
reg.name_args = (__u64)"test";

ioctl(data_fd, DIAG_IOCSREG, &reg);
int status_id = reg.status_index;
int write_id = reg.write_index;

struct iovec io[2];
io[0].iov_base = &write_id;
io[0].iov_len = sizeof(write_id);
io[1].iov_base = payload;
io[1].iov_len = sizeof(payload);

if (page_data[status_id])
	writev(data_fd, io, 2);

User events are also exposed via the dynamic_events tracefs file for
both create and delete. Current status is exposed via the user_events_status
tracefs file.

Simple example to register a user event via dynamic_events:
	echo u:test >> dynamic_events
	cat dynamic_events
	u:test

If an event is hooked to a probe, the probe hooked shows up:
	echo 1 > events/user_events/test/enable
	cat user_events_status
	1:test # Used by ftrace

	Active: 1
	Busy: 1
	Max: 4096

If an event is not hooked to a probe, no probe status shows up:
	echo 0 > events/user_events/test/enable
	cat user_events_status
	1:test

	Active: 1
	Busy: 0
	Max: 4096

Users can describe the trace event format via the following format:
	name[:FLAG1[,FLAG2...] [field1[;field2...]]

Each field has the following format:
	type name

Example for char array with a size of 20 named msg:
	echo 'u:detailed char[20] msg' >> dynamic_events
	cat dynamic_events
	u:detailed char[20] msg

Data offsets are based on the data written out via write() and will be
updated to reflect the correct offset in the trace_event fields. For dynamic
data it is recommended to use the new __rel_loc data type. This type will be
the same as __data_loc, but the offset is relative to this entry. This allows
user_events to not worry about what common fields are being inserted before
the data.

The above format is valid for both the ioctl and the dynamic_events file.

V2:
Fixed kmalloc vs kzalloc for register_page.
Renamed user_event_mmap to user_event_status.
Renamed user_event prefix from ue to u.
Added seq_* operations to user_event_status to enable cat output.
Aligned field parsing to synth_events format (+ size specifier for
custom/user types).
Added uapi header user_events.h to align kernel and user ABI definitions.

V3:
Updated ABI to handle single FD into many events via an int header.
Added iovec/writev support to enable int header without payload changes.
Updated bpf context to describe if data is coming from user, kernel or
raw iovec.
Added flag support for registering event, allows forcing BPF to always
recieve the direct iovecs for sensitive code paths that do not want
copies.

V4:
Moved to struct user_reg for registering events via ioctl.
Added unit tests for ftrace, dyn_events and perf integration.
Added print_fmt generation and proper dyn_events matching statements.
Reduced time in preemption disabled paths.
Added documentation file.
Pre-fault in data when preemption is enabled and use no-fault copy in probes.
Fixed MIPs missing PAGE_READONLY define.

V5:
Rebase to linux-trace for-next branch.
Added sample code into samples/user_events.
Switched to str_has_prefix in various locations.
Allow hex in array sizes and ensure reasonable sizes are used.
Moved lifetime of name buffer when parsing to the caller for failure paths.
Fixed documentation nits and index.
Ensure event isn't busy before freeing through dyn_events.
Properly handle failure case for ftrace and perf in fault cases for buffers.
Ensure write data is over min size and null terminated for dynamic arrays.

V6:
Fixed endian issue with dyn loc decoding (use u32).
Fixed size_t conversion warning on hexagon arch (min vs min_t).
Handle cases for __get_str vs __get_rel_str in print_fmt generation.
Add additional comments around various event member lifetimes.
Reduced max field array size to 1K.

V7:
Acquire reg_mutex during release, ensure refs cannot change under any situation.
Remove default n from Kconfig.
Move from static 0644 mode to TRACE_MODE_WRITE.

V8:
Squashed UABI header into ftrace minimal patch thread.
Moved pagefault_disable/enable into copy_nofault.
Moved to strscpy vs custom copy when getting array size from type.
Made patch bisect friendly by ensuring tests are split from kernel code.

V9:
Rebase to linux-trace ftrace/core branch.
Added comments for user_reg and other structs in user_events.h.
Moved from delayed seq_file to pre-created seq_file for status file.
Added deleting events to documentation and expanded registering section.
Reordered patches to make reviewing easier.
Fixed nitpicks.

[PATCH v9 01/12] user_events: Add minimal support for trace_event into ftrace

[Beau Belgrave]

Minimal support for interacting with dynamic events, trace_event and
ftrace. Core outline of flow between user process, ioctl and trace_event
APIs.

User mode processes that wish to use trace events to get data into
ftrace, perf, eBPF, etc are limited to uprobes today. The user events
features enables an ABI for user mode processes to create and write to
trace events that are isolated from kernel level trace events. This
enables a faster path for tracing from user mode data as well as opens
managed code to participate in trace events, where stub locations are
dynamic.

current state of the user events that have been registered. User
processes can check if their event is hooked to a trace/probe, and if it
is, emit the event data out via the write() syscall.

Two new files are introduced into tracefs to accomplish this:
user_events_status - This file is mmap'd into participating user mode
processes to indicate event status.

user_events_data - This file is opened and register/delete ioctl's are

write_index of the struct is used to describe that event when writing out to
the fd that was used for the ioctl call. The data must always include this

int page_fd = open("user_events_status", O_RDWR);
char *page_data = mmap(NULL, PAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_SHARED, page_fd, 0);
close(page_fd);

int data_fd = open("user_events_data", O_RDWR);

reg.size = sizeof(reg);
reg.name_args = (__u64)"test";

ioctl(data_fd, DIAG_IOCSREG, &reg);
int status_id = reg.status_index;
int write_id = reg.write_index;

struct iovec io[2];
io[0].iov_base = &write_id;
io[0].iov_len = sizeof(write_id);
io[1].iov_base = payload;
io[1].iov_len = sizeof(payload);

if (page_data[status_id])
	writev(data_fd, io, 2);

User events are also exposed via the dynamic_events tracefs file for
both create and delete. Current status is exposed via the user_events_status
tracefs file.

Simple example to register a user event via dynamic_events:
	echo u:test >> dynamic_events
	cat dynamic_events
	u:test

If an event is hooked to a probe, the probe hooked shows up:
	echo 1 > events/user_events/test/enable
	cat user_events_status
	1:test # Used by ftrace

	Active: 1
	Busy: 1
	Max: 4096

If an event is not hooked to a probe, no probe status shows up:
	echo 0 > events/user_events/test/enable
	cat user_events_status
	1:test

	Active: 1
	Busy: 0
	Max: 4096

Users can describe the trace event format via the following format:
	name[:FLAG1[,FLAG2...] [field1[;field2...]]

Each field has the following format:
	type name

[PATCH v9 06/12] user_events: Validate user payloads for size and null termination

[Beau Belgrave]

Add validation to ensure data is at or greater than the min size for the
fields of the event. If a dynamic array is used and is a type of char,
ensure null termination of the array exists.

+=========================================
+user_events: User-based Event Tracing
+=========================================
+
+:Author: Beau Belgrave
+
+Overview
+--------
+User based trace events allow user processes to create events and trace data
+that can be viewed via existing tools, such as ftrace, perf and eBPF.
+To enable this feature, build your kernel with CONFIG_USER_EVENTS=y.
+
+Programs can view status of the events via
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/user_events_status and can both register and write
+data out via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/user_events_data.
+
+Programs can also use /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/dynamic_events to register and
+delete user based events via the u: prefix. The format of the command to
+dynamic_events is the same as the ioctl with the u: prefix applied.
+
+Typically programs will register a set of events that they wish to expose to
+tools that can read trace_events (such as ftrace and perf). The registration
+process gives back two ints to the program for each event. The first int is the
+status index. This index describes which byte in the
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/user_events_status file represents this event. The
+second int is the write index. This index describes the data when a write() or
+writev() is called on the /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/user_events_data file.
+
+The structures referenced in this document are contained with the
+/include/uap/linux/user_events.h file in the source tree.
+
+**NOTE:** *Both user_events_status and user_events_data are under the tracefs
+filesystem and may be mounted at different paths than above.*
+
+Registering
+-----------
+Registering within a user process is done via ioctl() out to the
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/user_events_data file. The command to issue is
+DIAG_IOCSREG.
+
+This command takes a struct user_reg as an argument::
+
+  struct user_reg {
+        u32 size;
+        u64 name_args;
+        u32 status_index;
+        u32 write_index;
+  };
+
+The struct user_reg requires two inputs, the first is the size of the structure
+to ensure forward and backward compatibility. The second is the command string
+to issue for registering. Upon success two outputs are set, the status index
+and the write index.
+
+User based events show up under tracefs like any other event under the
+subsystem named "user_events". This means tools that wish to attach to the
+events need to use /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/user_events/[name]/enable
+or perf record -e user_events:[name] when attaching/recording.
+
+**NOTE:** *The write_index returned is only valid for the FD that was used*
+
+Command Format
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+The command string format is as follows::
+
+  name[:FLAG1[,FLAG2...]] [Field1[;Field2...]]
+
+Supported Flags
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+**BPF_ITER** - EBPF programs attached to this event will get the raw iovec
+struct instead of any data copies for max performance.
+
+Field Format
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+::
+
+  type name [size]
+
+Basic types are supported (__data_loc, u32, u64, int, char, char[20], etc).
+User programs are encouraged to use clearly sized types like u32.
+
+**NOTE:** *Long is not supported since size can vary between user and kernel.*
+
+The size is only valid for types that start with a struct prefix.
+This allows user programs to describe custom structs out to tools, if required.
+
+For example, a struct in C that looks like this::
+
+  struct mytype {
+    char data[20];
+  };
+
+Would be represented by the following field::
+
+  struct mytype myname 20
+
+Deleting
+-----------
+Deleting an event from within a user process is done via ioctl() out to the
+/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/user_events_data file. The command to issue is
+DIAG_IOCSDEL.
+
+This command only requires a single string specifying the event to delete by
+its name. Delete will only succeed if there are no references left to the
+event (in both user and kernel space). User programs should use a separate file
+to request deletes than the one used for registration due to this.
+
+Status
+------
+When tools attach/record user based events the status of the event is updated
+in realtime. This allows user programs to only incur the cost of the write() or
+writev() calls when something is actively attached to the event.
+
+User programs call mmap() on /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/user_events_status to
+check the status for each event that is registered. The byte to check in the
+file is given back after the register ioctl() via user_reg.status_index.
+Currently the size of user_events_status is a single page, however, custom
+kernel configurations can change this size to allow more user based events. In
+all cases the size of the file is a multiple of a page size.
+
+For example, if the register ioctl() gives back a status_index of 3 you would
+check byte 3 of the returned mmap data to see if anything is attached to that
+event.
+
+Administrators can easily check the status of all registered events by reading
+the user_events_status file directly via a terminal. The output is as follows::
+
+  Byte:Name [# Comments]
+  ...
+
+  Active: ActiveCount
+  Busy: BusyCount
+  Max: MaxCount
+
+For example, on a system that has a single event the output looks like this::
+
+  1:test
+
+  Active: 1
+  Busy: 0
+  Max: 4096
+
+If a user enables the user event via ftrace, the output would change to this::
+
+  1:test # Used by ftrace
+
+  Active: 1
+  Busy: 1
+  Max: 4096
+
+**NOTE:** *A status index of 0 will never be returned. This allows user
+programs to have an index that can be used on error cases.*
+
+Status Bits
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+The byte being checked will be non-zero if anything is attached. Programs can
+check specific bits in the byte to see what mechanism has been attached.
+
+The following values are defined to aid in checking what has been attached:
+
+**EVENT_STATUS_FTRACE** - Bit set if ftrace has been attached (Bit 0).
+
+**EVENT_STATUS_PERF** - Bit set if perf/eBPF has been attached (Bit 1).
+
+Writing Data
+------------
+After registering an event the same fd that was used to register can be used
+to write an entry for that event. The write_index returned must be at the start
+of the data, then the remaining data is treated as the payload of the event.
+
+For example, if write_index returned was 1 and I wanted to write out an int
+payload of the event. Then the data would have to be 8 bytes (2 ints) in size,
+with the first 4 bytes being equal to 1 and the last 4 bytes being equal to the
+value I want as the payload.
+
+In memory this would look like this::
+
+  int index;
+  int payload;
+
+User programs might have well known structs that they wish to use to emit out
+as payloads. In those cases writev() can be used, with the first vector being
+the index and the following vector(s) being the actual event payload.
+
+For example, if I have a struct like this::
+
+  struct payload {
+        int src;
+        int dst;
+        int flags;
+  };
+
+It's advised for user programs to do the following::
+
+  struct iovec io[2];
+  struct payload e;
+
+  io[0].iov_base = &write_index;
+  io[0].iov_len = sizeof(write_index);
+  io[1].iov_base = &e;
+  io[1].iov_len = sizeof(e);
+
+  writev(fd, (const struct iovec*)io, 2);
+
+**NOTE:** *The write_index is not emitted out into the trace being recorded.*
+
+EBPF
+----
+EBPF programs that attach to a user-based event tracepoint are given a pointer
+to a struct user_bpf_context. The bpf context contains the data type (which can
+be a user or kernel buffer, or can be a pointer to the iovec) and the data
+length that was emitted (minus the write_index).
+
+Example Code
+------------
+See sample code in samples/user_events.

Arnd, it looks like [1] never got picked up? That would help solve
this, as this function is the same as single_start(). Should it be
resent or pinged?

Let me confirm just one point. Your syntax supports

[__data_loc|__rel_loc] [unsigned] TYPE[\[LEN\]] NAME

or

struct TYPE NAME SIZE

for the fields, right? In that case, above seq_printf() seems not enough.

Thank you,

Yep, I see.

The non-struct cases work as expected from my testing:
echo 'u:test unsigned char msg[20]' > dynamic_events
cat dynamic_events
u:test unsigned char msg[20]

In the struct case you are right, it's missing the size. Good catch!
I'll fix this up!

Was there another case you had in mind that I might have missed beyond
the struct case?

I also would like, since I'm re-spinning, to fix a warning the intel bot
found related to the same code pulled from single_open, etc.

No, that's the only one which I found :)

OK, I'll then wait for your next version.
