No architecture terminates the stack trace with ULONG_MAX anymore. As the
code checks the number of entries stored anyway there is no point in
keeping all that ULONG_MAX magic around.
The histogram code zeroes the storage before saving the stack, so if the
trace is shorter than the maximum number of entries it can terminate the
print loop if a zero entry is detected.

Because there may be random garbage beyond a string's null terminator,
code that might use the entire comm array e.g. histogram keys, can
give unexpected results if that garbage is copied in too, so avoid
that possibility by using strncpy instead of memcpy.

Because there may be random garbage beyond a string's null terminator,
it's not correct to copy the the complete character array for use as a
hist trigger key. This results in multiple histogram entries for the
'same' string key.
So, in the case of a string key, use strncpy instead of memcpy to
avoid copying in the extra bytes.
Before, using the gdbus entries in the following hist trigger as an
example:

Add a 'trace(synthetic_event_name, params)' alternative to
synthetic_event_name(params).
Currently, the syntax used for generating synthetic events is to
invoke synthetic_event_name(params) i.e. use the synthetic event name
as a function call.
Users requested a new form that more explicitly shows that the
synthetic event is in effect being traced. In this version, a new
'trace()' keyword is used, and the synthetic event name is passed in
as the first argument.
In addition, for the sake of consistency with other actions, change
the documention to emphasize the trace() form over the function-call
form, which remains documented as equivalent.

Add support for hist:handlerXXX($var).snapshot(), which will take a
snapshot of the current trace buffer whenever handlerXXX is hit.
As a first user, this also adds snapshot() action support for the
onmax() handler i.e. hist:onmax($var).snapshot().
Also, the hist trigger key printing is moved into a separate function
so the snapshot() action can print a histogram key outside the
histogram display - add and use hist_trigger_print_key() for that
purpose.

The action refactor code allowed actions and handlers to be separated,
but the existing onmax handler and save action code is still not
flexible enough to handle arbitrary coupling. This change generalizes
them and in the process makes additional handlers and actions easier
to implement.
The onmax action can be broken up and thought of as two separate
components - a variable to be tracked (the parameter given to the
onmax($var_to_track) function) and an invisible variable created to
save the ongoing result of doing something with that variable, such as
saving the max value of that variable so far seen.
Separating it out like this and renaming it appropriately allows us to
use the same code for similar tracking functions such as
onchange($var_to_track), which would just track the last value seen
rather than the max seen so far, which is useful in some situations.
Additionally, because different handlers and actions may want to save
and access data differently e.g. save and retrieve tracking values as
local variables vs something more global, save_val() and get_val()
interface functions are introduced and max-specific implementations
are used instead.
The same goes for the code that checks whether a maximum has been hit
- a generic check_val() interface and max-checking implementation is
used instead, which allows future patches to make use of he same code
using their own implemetations of similar functionality.

Currently, the onmatch action data binds the onmatch action to data
related to synthetic event generation. Since we want to allow the
onmatch handler to potentially invoke a different action, and because
we expect other handlers to generate synthetic events, we need to
separate the data related to these two functions.
Also rename the onmatch data to something more descriptive, and create
and use common action data destroy function.

The hist trigger action code currently implements two essentially
hard-coded pairs of 'actions' - onmax(), which tracks a variable and
saves some event fields when a max is hit, and onmatch(), which is
hard-coded to generate a synthetic event.
These hardcoded pairs (track max/save fields and detect match/generate
synthetic event) should really be decoupled into separate components
that can then be arbitrarily combined. The first component of each
pair (track max/detect match) is called a 'handler' in the new code,
while the second component (save fields/generate synthetic event) is
called an 'action' in this scheme.
This change refactors the action code to reflect this split by adding
two handlers, HANDLER_ONMATCH and HANDLER_ONMAX, along with two
actions, ACTION_SAVE and ACTION_TRACE.
The new code combines them to produce the existing ONMATCH/TRACE and
ONMAX/SAVE functionality, but doesn't implement the other combinations
now possible. Future patches will expand these to further useful
cases, such as ONMAX/TRACE, as well as add additional handlers and
actions such as ONCHANGE and SNAPSHOT.
Also, add abbreviated documentation for handlers and actions to
README.

synthetic event is using synth_event_mutex for protecting
synth_event_list, and event_trigger_write() path acquires
locks as below order.
event_trigger_write(event_mutex)
->trigger_process_regex(trigger_cmd_mutex)
->event_hist_trigger_func(synth_event_mutex)
On the other hand, synthetic event creation and deletion paths
call trace_add_event_call() and trace_remove_event_call()
which acquires event_mutex. In that case, if we keep the
synth_event_mutex locked while registering/unregistering synthetic
events, its dependency will be inversed.
To avoid this issue, current synthetic event is using a 2 phase
process to create/delete events. For example, it searches existing
events under synth_event_mutex to check for event-name conflicts, and
unlocks synth_event_mutex, then registers a new event under event_mutex
locked. Finally, it locks synth_event_mutex and tries to add the
new event to the list. But it can introduce complexity and a chance
for name conflicts.
To solve this simpler, this introduces trace_add_event_call_nolock()
and trace_remove_event_call_nolock() which don't acquire
event_mutex inside. synthetic event can lock event_mutex before
synth_event_mutex to solve the lock dependency issue simpler.

Smatch complains that idx can be used uninitialized when we check if
(idx < 0). It has to be the first iteration through the loop and the
HIST_FIELD_FL_STACKTRACE bit has to be clear and the HIST_FIELD_FL_VAR
bit has to be set to reach the bug.

The strncpy() currently being used for variable string fields can
result in a lack of termination if the string length is equal to the
field size. Use the safer strscpy() instead, which will guarantee
termination.

Actions also need to be considered when checking for matching triggers
- triggers differing only by action should be allowed, but currently
aren't because the matching check ignores the action and erroneously
returns -EEXIST.
Add and call an actions_match() function to address that.
Here's an example using onmatch() actions. The first -EEXIST shouldn't
occur because the onmatch() is different in the second wakeup_latency()
param. The second -EEXIST shouldn't occur because it's a different
action (in this case, it doesn't have an action, so shouldn't be seen
as being the same and therefore rejected).
In the after case, both are correctly accepted (and trying to add one of
them again returns -EEXIST as it should).

When displaying hist triggers, variable references that have the
timestamp field flag set are erroneously displayed as common_timestamp
rather than the variable reference. Additionally, timestamp
expressions are displayed in the same way. Fix this by forcing the
timestamp flag handling to follow variable reference and expression
handling.

The default clock if timestamps are used in a histogram is "global".
If timestamps aren't used, the clock is irrelevant.
Use the "clock=" param only if you want to override the default
"global" clock for a histogram with timestamps.

With the addition of variables and actions, it's become necessary to
provide more detailed error information to users about syntax errors.
Add a 'last error' facility accessible via the erroring event's 'hist'
file. Reading the hist file after an error will display more detailed
information about what went wrong, if information is available. This
extended error information will be available until the next hist
trigger command for that event.
# echo xxx > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
echo: write error: Invalid argument
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist
ERROR: Couldn't yyy: zzz
Last command: xxx
Also add specific error messages for variable and action errors.

Add support for alias=$somevar where alias can be used as
onmatch.xxx($alias).
Aliases are a way of creating a new name for an existing variable, for
flexibly in making naming more clear in certain cases. For example in
the below the user perhaps feels that using $new_lat in the synthetic
event invocation is opaque or doesn't fit well stylistically with
previous triggers, so creates an alias of $new_lat named $latency and
uses that in the call instead:
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:new_lat=common_timestamp.usecs' >
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:latency=$new_lat:

The existing code only allows for one space before and after the 'if'
specifying the filter for a hist trigger. Add code to make that more
permissive as far as whitespace goes. Specifically, we want to allow
spaces in the trigger itself now that we have additional syntax
(onmatch/onmax) where spaces are more natural e.g. spaces after commas
in param lists.

Add an 'onmax(var).save(field,...)' hist trigger action which is
invoked whenever an event exceeds the current maximum.
The end result is that the trace event fields or variables specified
as the onmax.save() params will be saved if 'var' exceeds the current
maximum for that hist trigger entry. This allows context from the
event that exhibited the new maximum to be saved for later reference.
When the histogram is displayed, additional fields displaying the
saved values will be printed.
As an example the below defines a couple of hist triggers, one for
sched_wakeup and another for sched_switch, keyed on pid. Whenever a
sched_wakeup occurs, the timestamp is saved in the entry corresponding
to the current pid, and when the scheduler switches back to that pid,
the timestamp difference is calculated. If the resulting latency
exceeds the current maximum latency, the specified save() values are
saved:
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs \
if comm=="cyclictest"' >> \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:\
wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:\
onmax($wakeup_lat).save(next_comm,prev_pid,prev_prio,prev_comm) \
if next_comm=="cyclictest"' >> \
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
When the histogram is displayed, the max value and the saved values
corresponding to the max are displayed following the rest of the
fields:
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/hist
{ next_pid: 3728 } hitcount: 199 \
max: 123 next_comm: cyclictest prev_pid: 0 \
