commit e63fbd5f6810ed756bbb8a1549c7d4132968baa9 upstream.
The cmp_entries_dup() function used as the comparator for sort()
violated the symmetry and transitivity properties required by the
sorting algorithm. Specifically, it returned 1 whenever memcmp() was
non-zero, which broke the following expectations:
* Symmetry: If x < y, then y > x.
* Transitivity: If x < y and y < z, then x < z.
These violations could lead to incorrect sorting and failure to
correctly identify duplicate elements.
Fix the issue by directly returning the result of memcmp(), which
adheres to the required comparison properties.

commit bcf86c01ca4676316557dd482c8416ece8c2e143 upstream.
"tracing_map->next_elt" in get_free_elt() is at risk of overflowing.
Once it overflows, new elements can still be inserted into the tracing_map
even though the maximum number of elements (`max_elts`) has been reached.
Continuing to insert elements after the overflow could result in the
tracing_map containing "tracing_map->max_size" elements, leaving no empty
entries.
If any attempt is made to insert an element into a full tracing_map using
`__tracing_map_insert()`, it will cause an infinite loop with preemption
disabled, leading to a CPU hang problem.
Fix this by preventing any further increments to "tracing_map->next_elt"
once it reaches "tracing_map->max_elt".

[ Upstream commit 2b44760609e9eaafc9d234a6883d042fc21132a7 ]
Running the following two commands in parallel on a multi-processor
AArch64 machine can sporadically produce an unexpected warning about
duplicate histogram entries:
$ while true; do
echo hist:key=id.syscall:val=hitcount > \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/hist
sleep 0.001
done
$ stress-ng --sysbadaddr $(nproc)
The warning looks as follows:

The problem appears to be caused by CPU reordering of writes issued from
__tracing_map_insert().
The check for the presence of an element with a given key in this
function is:
val = READ_ONCE(entry->val);
if (val && keys_match(key, val->key, map->key_size)) ...
The write of a new entry is:
elt = get_free_elt(map);
memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);
entry->val = elt;
The "memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);" and "entry->val = elt;"
stores may become visible in the reversed order on another CPU. This
second CPU might then incorrectly determine that a new key doesn't match
an already present val->key and subsequently insert a new element,
resulting in a duplicate.
Fix the problem by adding a write barrier between
"memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);" and "entry->val = elt;", and for
good measure, also use WRITE_ONCE(entry->val, elt) for publishing the
element. The sequence pairs with the mentioned "READ_ONCE(entry->val);"
and the "val->key" check which has an address dependency.
The barrier is placed on a path executed when adding an element for
a new key. Subsequent updates targeting the same key remain unaffected.
From the user's perspective, the issue was introduced by commit
c193707dde77 ("tracing: Remove code which merges duplicates"), which
followed commit cbf4100efb8f ("tracing: Add support to detect and avoid
duplicates"). The previous code operated differently; it inherently
expected potential races which result in duplicates but merged them
later when they occurred.
