[PATCH v3 0/5] tracing: More synthetic event error fixes

[PATCH v3 0/5] tracing: More synthetic event error fixes

[Tom Zanussi]

Hi,

This is v3 of the sythetic event error fix patchset.  As suggested by
Masami, I split the 'tracing/dynevent: Delegate parsing to create
function' into two - one containing just the interface changes and the
second with the synthetic event parsing changes the first enabled.

I also replaced a couple argv_split() with strpbrk() as suggested by
Masami, along with removing the no-longer-used consume lines and
another line that tested ECANCELED that was no longer needed.

Also, removed a test case that was no longer needed since the commands
are now stripped of whitespace first.

Thanks, Masami, for the suggestions.

Tom

v2 text:

This is v2 of the previous sythetic event error fix patchset.

This version drops the original ([PATCH 1/4] tracing: Make
trace_*_run_command() more flexible) and (tracing: Use new
trace_run_command() options) patches and replaces them with Masami's
patch (tracing/dynevent: Delegate parsing to create function) [1].
The new version adds in all the synthetic event changes needed to
compile and use the new interface.

A new patch was also added (selftests/ftrace: Add synthetic event
field separators) that fixes more invalid synthetic event syntax I
found while testing.

I also added some more new checks to the synthetic event sytax error
testcase.

As before, I didn't see any problems running the entire ftrace
testsuite or the test modules that also use the things that were
touched here.

Thanks,

Hi,

This patchset addresses the synthetic event error anomalies reported
by Masami in the last patchset [1].

It turns out that most of the problems boil down to clunky separator
parsing; adding a couple new abilities to trace_run_command() and then
adapting the existing users seemed to me the best way to fix these
things, and also gets rid of some code.

Also, to make things easier for error display, I changed these to
preserve the original command string and pass it through the callback
instead of rebuilding it for error display.

I added some new error strings and removed unused ones as well, and
added a bunch of new test cases to the synthetic parser error test
case.

I didn't see any problems running the entire ftrace testsuite or the
test modules that also use the things that were touched here.

Thanks,

Tom

[PATCH v3 1/5] tracing/dynevent: Delegate parsing to create function

[Tom Zanussi]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Delegate command parsing to each create function so that the
command syntax can be customized.

This requires changes to the kprobe/uprobe/synthetic event handling,
which are also included here.

[PATCH v3 2/5] tracing: Rework synthetic event command parsing

[Tom Zanussi]

Now that command parsing has been delegated to the create functions
and we're no longer constrained by argv_split(), we can modify the
synthetic event command parser to better match the higher-level
structure of the synthetic event commands, which is basically an event
name followed by a set of semicolon-separated fields.

Since we're also now passed the raw command, we can also save it
directly and can get rid of save_cmdstr().

Oops, yeah, a stray check_command() call got left behind in that patch
when refactoring, should be moved to the next patch.

[PATCH v3 3/5] tracing: Update synth command errors

[Tom Zanussi]

Since array types are handled differently, errors referencing them
also need to be handled differently.  Add and use a new
INVALID_ARRAY_SPEC error.  Also add INVALID_CMD and INVALID_DYN_CMD to
catch and display the correct form for badly-formed commands, which
can also be used in place of CMD_INCOMPLETE, which is removed, and
remove CMD_TOO_LONG, since it's no longer used.

Unfortunately, this patch series breaks user space.

I already have scripts that do the histograms, and I'm sure others may
have that too, and if we change how synthetic events are created, it
will break them.

What's the rationale for the new delimiters?

The overall problem this is trying to fix is that it was probably a
mistake to try to shoehorn the synthetic event parsing into what was
available from  trace_run_command() and trace_parse_run_command(),
which use argv_split() to do the command splitting, and which only
splits on whitespace.  Whereas the synthetic events have a bit of a
higher-level structure which is 'event field; field; field;...'

So this patchset tries to remedy that - the first patch,
(tracing/dynevent: Delegate parsing to create function) is from Masami,
and makes it possible to share code between kprobe/uprobe and synthetic
evnents, and to allow synthetic events to have their own higher-level
parsing, which the next 2 patches do.

The history in more detail:

Initially the problem was to fix the errors mentioned by Masami in
[1]. 

Things like:

  # echo myevent char str[];; int v >> synthetic_events

which was identified as INVALID_TYPE where it should just be a void arg
and

  # echo mye;vent char str[] >> synthetic_events

which was identified as BAD_NAME where it should have been an invalid
command, etc.

I suggested that the way to fix them was to consider semicolon as
additional whitespace and the result was the patchset containing [2],
which also explains the reasons for wanting to enforce semicolon
grouping.

Masami pointed out that it really wasn't correct to do it that way,
and  the commands should be split out first at the higher level by
semicolon and then further processed [3].

Unfortunately, you're correct, if you have a script that creates a
synthetic event without semicolons, this patchset will break it, as I
myself found out and fixed in patch 4 ([PATCH v3 4/5] selftests/ftrace:
Add synthetic event field separators) [4].

So whereas before this would work, even though it shouldn't have in the
first place:

  # echo 'wakeup_latency  u64 lat pid_t pid char comm[16]' >
synthetic_events

it now has to be:

  # echo 'wakeup_latency  u64 lat; pid_t pid; char comm[16]' >
synthetic_events

So yeah, this patchset fixes a set of parsing bugs for things that
shouldn't have been accepted as valid, but shouldn't break things that
are obviously valid.

If it's too late to fix them, though, I guess we'll just have to live
with them, or some other option?

I would suggest allowing the old interface work (with no new features, for
backward compatibility), but new things like "char comm[16]" we require
semicolons.

One method to do this is to add to the start of reading the string, and
checking if it has semicolons. If it does not, we create a new string with
them, but make sure that the string does not include new changes.

	strncpy_from_user(buffer, user_buff, sizeof(buffer));

	if (!strstr(buffer, ";")) {
		if (!audit_old_buffer(buffer))
			goto error;
		insert_colons(buffer);
	}


That is, if the buffer does not have semicolons, then check if it is a
valid "old format", and if not, we error out. Otherwise, we insert the
colons into the buffer, and process that as if the user put in colons:

That is:

	echo 'wakeup_latency u64 lat pid_t pid' > synthetic_events

would change the buffer to:

	"wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid;"

And then put it through the normal processing. I think its OK that if the
user were to cat out the synthetic events, it would see the semicolons even
if it did not add them. As I don't think that will break userspace.

Does that make sense?

Yeah, that should work, I'll try adding that.

This makes sense. Anyway, what I considered were
- synthetic_events interface doesn't provide syntax error reports
- synthetic_events interface is not self-reproducive*.

*) I meant

$ cat synthetic_events > saved_events
$ cat saved_events > synthetic_events

  should work. But this does *NOT* mean

$ cat user-input > synthetic_events
$ cat synthetic_events > saved_events
$ diff user-input saved_events # no diff

So input and output can be different, but the output can be input again.

Thank you,

Totally agree.

[PATCH v3 4/5] selftests/ftrace: Add synthetic event field separators

[Tom Zanussi]

These tests omit field separators from the synthetic event definitions
so don't follow the syntax '<event_name> field[;field] ...' required
for synthetic events.

[PATCH v3 5/5] selftests/ftrace: Update synthetic event syntax errors

[Tom Zanussi]

Some of the synthetic event errors and positions have changed in the
code - update those and add several more tests.

Also add a runtime check to ensure that the kernel supports dynamic
strings in synthetic events, which these tests require.

Fixes: 81ff92a93d95 (selftests/ftrace: Add test case for synthetic
event syntax errors)
