commit 7be76461f302ec05cbd62b90b2a05c64299ca01f upstream.
It use to be that only the top level instance had a snapshot buffer (for
latency tracers like wakeup and irqsoff). The update of the ring buffer
size would check if the instance was the top level and if so, it would
also update the snapshot buffer as it needs to be the same as the main
buffer.
Now that lower level instances also has a snapshot buffer, they too need
to update their snapshot buffer sizes when the main buffer is changed,
otherwise the following can be triggered:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 1500 > buffer_size_kb
# mkdir instances/foo
# echo irqsoff > instances/foo/current_tracer
# echo 1000 > instances/foo/buffer_size_kb
Produces:
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 856 at kernel/trace/trace.c:1938 update_max_tr_single.part.0+0x27d/0x320
Which is:
ret = ring_buffer_swap_cpu(tr->max_buffer.buffer, tr->array_buffer.buffer, cpu);
if (ret == -EBUSY) {
[..]
}
WARN_ON_ONCE(ret && ret != -EAGAIN && ret != -EBUSY); <== here
That's because ring_buffer_swap_cpu() has:
int ret = -EINVAL;
[..]
/* At least make sure the two buffers are somewhat the same */
if (cpu_buffer_a->nr_pages != cpu_buffer_b->nr_pages)
goto out;
[..]
out:
return ret;
}
Instead, update all instances' snapshot buffer sizes when their main
buffer size is updated.

[ Upstream commit 34209fe83ef8404353f91ab4ea4035dbc9922d04 ]
Function trace_buffered_event_disable() produces an unexpected warning
when the previous call to trace_buffered_event_enable() fails to
allocate pages for buffered events.
The situation can occur as follows:
* The counter trace_buffered_event_ref is at 0.
* The soft mode gets enabled for some event and
trace_buffered_event_enable() is called. The function increments
trace_buffered_event_ref to 1 and starts allocating event pages.
* The allocation fails for some page and trace_buffered_event_disable()
is called for cleanup.
* Function trace_buffered_event_disable() decrements
trace_buffered_event_ref back to 0, recognizes that it was the last
use of buffered events and frees all allocated pages.
* The control goes back to trace_buffered_event_enable() which returns.
The caller of trace_buffered_event_enable() has no information that
the function actually failed.
* Some time later, the soft mode is disabled for the same event.
Function trace_buffered_event_disable() is called. It warns on
"WARN_ON_ONCE(!trace_buffered_event_ref)" and returns.
Buffered events are just an optimization and can handle failures. Make
trace_buffered_event_enable() exit on the first failure and left any
cleanup later to when trace_buffered_event_disable() is called.

commit bb32500fb9b78215e4ef6ee8b4345c5f5d7eafb4 upstream.
The following can crash the kernel:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 'p:sched schedule' > kprobe_events
# exec 5>>events/kprobes/sched/enable
# > kprobe_events
# exec 5>&-
The above commands:
1. Change directory to the tracefs directory
2. Create a kprobe event (doesn't matter what one)
3. Open bash file descriptor 5 on the enable file of the kprobe event
4. Delete the kprobe event (removes the files too)
5. Close the bash file descriptor 5
The above causes a crash!

RIP: 0010:tracing_release_file_tr+0xc/0x50
What happens here is that the kprobe event creates a trace_event_file
"file" descriptor that represents the file in tracefs to the event. It
maintains state of the event (is it enabled for the given instance?).
Opening the "enable" file gets a reference to the event "file" descriptor
via the open file descriptor. When the kprobe event is deleted, the file is
also deleted from the tracefs system which also frees the event "file"
descriptor.
But as the tracefs file is still opened by user space, it will not be
totally removed until the final dput() is called on it. But this is not
true with the event "file" descriptor that is already freed. If the user
does a write to or simply closes the file descriptor it will reference the
event "file" descriptor that was just freed, causing a use-after-free bug.
To solve this, add a ref count to the event "file" descriptor as well as a
new flag called "FREED". The "file" will not be freed until the last
reference is released. But the FREE flag will be set when the event is
removed to prevent any more modifications to that event from happening,
even if there's still a reference to the event "file" descriptor.
