Impact: reset struct buffer_page.write when interrupt storm

rb_set_commit_to_write(struct ring_buffer_per_cpu *cpu_buffer)
{
......
cpu_buffer->commit_page->commit =
cpu_buffer->commit_page->write;
......
}
when "if (RB_WARN_ON(cpu_buffer, next_page == reader_page))", ring_buffer
is disabled, but some reserved buffers may haven't been committed.
we need reset struct buffer_page.write.
when "if (unlikely(next_page == cpu_buffer->commit_page))", ring_buffer
is still available, we should not corrupt it.

Impact: fix to allow some archs to use the ring buffer
Commits in the ring buffer are checked by pointer arithmetic.
If the calculation is incorrect, then the commits will never take
place and the buffer will simply fill up and report an error.
Each page in the ring buffer has a small header:
struct buffer_data_page {
u64 time_stamp;
local_t commit;
unsigned char data[];
};
Unfortuntely, some of the calculations used sizeof(struct buffer_data_page)
to know the size of the header. But this is incorrect on some archs,
where sizeof(struct buffer_data_page) does not equal
offsetof(struct buffer_data_page, data), and on those archs, the commits
are never processed.
This patch replaces the sizeof with offsetof.

Impact: fix bad times of recent resets
The ring buffer needs to reset its timestamps when reseting of the

Function ring_buffer_event_length() provides an interface to detect
the length of data stored in an entry. However, the length contains
offsets depending on the internal usage. This makes it unusable. This
patch fixes this and now ring_buffer_event_length() returns the
alligned length that has been used in ring_buffer_lock_reserve().

Impact: Reduce future memory usage, use new cpumask API.
(Eventually, cpumask_var_t will be allocated based on nr_cpu_ids, not NR_CPUS).
Convert kernel trace functions to use struct cpumask API:
1) Use cpumask_copy/cpumask_test_cpu/for_each_cpu.
2) Use cpumask_var_t and alloc_cpumask_var/free_cpumask_var everywhere.
3) Use on_each_cpu instead of playing with current->cpus_allowed.

Impact: eliminate false WARN_ON message
If an interrupt goes off after the setting of the local variable
tail_page and before incrementing the write index of that page,
the interrupt could push the commit forward to the next page.
Later a check is made to see if interrupts pushed the buffer around
the entire ring buffer by comparing the next page to the last commited
page. This can produce a false positive if the interrupt had pushed
the commit page forward as stated above.

Impact: fix stuck trace-buffers
If an interrupt comes in during the rb_set_commit_to_write and
pushes the tail page forward just at the right time, the commit
updates will miss the adding of the interrupt data. This will
cause the commit pointer to cease from moving forward.

ring_buffer_time_stamp()
Impact: prevent a trace recursion
After some tests with function graph tracer under x86-32, I saw some recursions
caused by ring_buffer_time_stamp() that calls preempt_enable_no_notrace() which
calls preempt_schedule() which is traced itself.

Impact: clean up
Andrew Morton pointed out that the kernel convention of a variable
named page should be of type page struct. The ring buffer uses
a variable named "page" for a pointer to something else.
This patch converts those to be called "bpage" (as in "buffer page").

Impact: new API to ring buffer
This patch adds a new interface into the ring buffer that allows a
page to be read from the ring buffer on a given CPU. For every page
read, one must also be given to allow for a "swap" of the pages.
rpage = ring_buffer_alloc_read_page(buffer);
if (!rpage)
goto err;
ret = ring_buffer_read_page(buffer, &rpage, cpu, full);
if (!ret)
goto empty;
process_page(rpage);
ring_buffer_free_read_page(rpage);
The caller of these functions must handle any waits that are
needed to wait for new data. The ring_buffer_read_page will simply
return 0 if there is no data, or if "full" is set and the writer
is still on the current page.

Impact: feature to permanently disable ring buffer
This patch adds a API to the ring buffer code that will permanently
disable the ring buffer from ever recording. This should only be
called when some serious anomaly is detected, and the system
may be in an unstable state. When that happens, shutting down the
recording to the ring buffers may be appropriate.

But it is a bug to call it with preemption enabled. This requirement

Impact: enable/disable ring buffer recording API added
Several kernel developers have requested that there be a way to stop
recording into the ring buffers with a simple switch that can also
be enabled from userspace. This patch addes a new kernel API to the
ring buffers called:
tracing_on()
tracing_off()
When tracing_off() is called, all ring buffers will not be able to record
into their buffers.
tracing_on() will enable the ring buffers again.
These two act like an on/off switch. That is, there is no counting of the
number of times tracing_off or tracing_on has been called.
A new file is added to the debugfs/tracing directory called
tracing_on
This allows for userspace applications to also flip the switch.
echo 0 > debugfs/tracing/tracing_on
disables the tracing.
echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_on
enables it.
Note, this does not disable or enable any tracers. It only sets or clears
a flag that needs to be set in order for the ring buffers to write to
their buffers. It is a global flag, and affects all ring buffers.
The buffers start out with tracing_on enabled.
There are now three flags that control recording into the buffers:
tracing_on: which affects all ring buffer tracers.
buffer->record_disabled: which affects an allocated buffer, which may be set
if an anomaly is detected, and tracing is disabled.
cpu_buffer->record_disabled: which is set by tracing_stop() or if an
anomaly is detected. tracing_start can not reenable this if
an anomaly occurred.
The userspace debugfs/tracing/tracing_enabled is implemented with
tracing_stop() but the user space code can not enable it if the kernel
called tracing_stop().
Userspace can enable the tracing_on even if the kernel disabled it.
It is just a switch used to stop tracing if a condition was hit.
tracing_on is not for protecting critical areas in the kernel nor is
it for stopping tracing if an anomaly occurred. This is because userspace
can reenable it at any time.
Side effect: With this patch, I discovered a dead variable in ftrace.c
called tracing_on. This patch removes it.

Impact: serialize reader accesses to individual CPU ring buffers

This patch replaces most of the BUG_ONs in the ring_buffer code with
RB_WARN_ON variants. It adds some more variants as needed for the
replacement. This lets the buffer die nicely and still warn the user.
One BUG_ON remains in the code, and that is because it detects a
bad pointer passed in by the calling function, and not a bug by
the ring buffer code itself.

Impact: removal of unnecessary looping
The lockless part of the ring buffer allows for reentry into the code
from interrupts. A timestamp is taken, a test is preformed and if it
detects that an interrupt occurred that did tracing, it tries again.
The problem arises if the timestamp code itself causes a trace.
The detection will detect this and loop again. The difference between
this and an interrupt doing tracing, is that this will fail every time,
and cause an infinite loop.
Currently, we test if the loop happens 1000 times, and if so, it will
produce a warning and disable the ring buffer.
The problem with this approach is that it makes it difficult to perform
some types of tracing (tracing the timestamp code itself).
Each trace entry has a delta timestamp from the previous entry.
If a trace entry is reserved but and interrupt occurs and traces before
the previous entry is commited, the delta timestamp for that entry will
be zero. This actually makes sense in terms of tracing, because the
interrupt entry happened before the preempted entry was commited, so
one may consider the two happening at the same time. The order is
still preserved in the buffer.
With this idea, instead of trying to get a new timestamp if an interrupt
made it in between the timestamp and the test, the entry could simply
make the delta zero and continue. This will prevent interrupts or
tracers in the timer code from causing the above loop.

While writing a new tracer, I had a bug where I caused the ring-buffer
to recurse in a bad way. The bug was with the tracer I was writing
and not the ring-buffer itself. But it took a long time to find the
problem.
This patch adds paranoid checks into the ring-buffer infrastructure
that will catch bugs of this nature.
Note: I put the bug back in the tracer and this patch showed the error
nicely and prevented the lockup.

Impact: no lockdep debugging of ring buffer
The problem with running lockdep on the ring buffer is that the
ring buffer is the core infrastructure of ftrace. What happens is
that the tracer will start tracing the lockdep code while lockdep
is testing the ring buffers locks. This can cause lockdep to
fail due to testing cases that have not fully finished their
locking transition.
This patch converts the spin locks used by the ring buffer back
into raw spin locks which lockdep does not check.

Impact: use new, consolidated APIs in ftrace plugins
This patch replaces the schedule safe preempt disable code with the
ftrace_preempt_disable() and ftrace_preempt_enable() safe functions.

The pages of a buffer was originally pointing to the page struct, it
now points to the page address. The freeing of the page still uses
the page frame free "__free_page" instead of the correct free_page to
the address.

This patch replaces the local_irq_save/restore with preempt_disable/
enable. This allows for interrupts to enter while recording.
To write to the ring buffer, you must reserve data, and then
commit it. During this time, an interrupt may call a trace function
that will also record into the buffer before the commit is made.
The interrupt will reserve its entry after the first entry, even
though the first entry did not finish yet.
The time stamp delta of the interrupt entry will be zero, since
in the view of the trace, the interrupt happened during the
first field anyway.
Locking still takes place when the tail/write moves from one page
to the next. The reader always takes the locks.
A new page pointer is added, called the commit. The write/tail will
always point to the end of all entries. The commit field will
point to the last committed entry. Only this commit entry may
update the write time stamp.
The reader can only go up to the commit. It cannot go past it.
If a lot of interrupts come in during a commit that fills up the
buffer, and it happens to make it all the way around the buffer
back to the commit, then a warning is printed and new events will
be dropped.

Remove the global head and tail indexes and move them into the
page header. Each page will now keep track of where the last
write and read was made. We also rename the head and tail to read
and write for better clarification.
This patch is needed for future enhancements to move the ring buffer
to a lockless solution.

My original patch had a compile bug when NUMA was configured. I
referenced cpu when it should have been cpu_buffer->cpu.
Ingo quickly fixed this bug by replacing cpu with 'i' because that
was the loop counter. Unfortunately, the 'i' was the counter of
pages, not CPUs. This caused a crash when the number of pages allocated
for the buffers exceeded the number of pages, which would usually
be the case.

The current method of overlaying the page frame as the buffer page pointer
can be very dangerous and limits our ability to do other things with
a page from the buffer, like send it off to disk.
This patch allocates the buffer_page instead of overlaying the page's
page frame. The use of the buffer_page has hardly changed due to this.

The old "lock always" scheme had issues with lockdep, and was not very
efficient anyways.
This patch does a new design to be partially lockless on writes.
Writes will add new entries to the per cpu pages by simply disabling
interrupts. When a write needs to go to another page than it will
grab the lock.
A new "read page" has been added so that the reader can pull out a page
from the ring buffer to read without worrying about the writer writing over
it. This allows us to not take the lock for all reads. The lock is
now only taken when a read needs to go to a new page.
This is far from lockless, and interrupts still need to be disabled,
but it is a step towards a more lockless solution, and it also
solves a lot of the issues that were noticed by the first conversion
of ftrace to the ring buffers.
Note: the ring_buffer_{un}lock API has been removed.
