fgraph: Pass ftrace_regs to entryfunc

Pass ftrace_regs to the fgraph_ops::entryfunc(). If ftrace_regs is not
available, it passes a NULL instead. User callback function can access
some registers (including return address) via this ftrace_regs.

Note that the ftrace_regs can be NULL when the arch does NOT define:
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS or HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS.
More specifically, if HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS is defined but
not the HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, and the ftrace ops used to
register the function callback does not set FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS.
In this case, ftrace_regs can be NULL in user callback.

sched/fair: Fix external p->on_rq users

Sean noted that ever since commit 152e11f6df29 ("sched/fair: Implement
delayed dequeue") KVM's preemption notifiers have started
mis-classifying preemption vs blocking.

Notably p->on_rq is no longer sufficient to determine if a task is
runnable or blocked -- the aforementioned commit introduces tasks that
remain on the runqueue even through they will not run again, and
should be considered blocked for many cases.

Add the task_is_runnable() helper to classify things and audit all
external users of the p->on_rq state. Also add a few comments.

Simplify return address printing in the function graph tracer by removing

tracer and the feature flags can directly accessible from the function

function_graph: Support recording and printing the function return address

When using function_graph tracer to analyze the flow of kernel function
execution, it is often necessary to quickly locate the exact line of code
where the call occurs. While this may be easy at times, it can be more
time-consuming when some functions are inlined or the flow is too long.

This feature aims to simplify the process by recording the return address
of traced funcions and printing it when outputing trace logs.

To enhance human readability, the prefix 'ret=' is used for the kernel return
value, while '<-' serves as the prefix for the return address in trace logs to
make it look more like the function tracer.

A new trace option named 'funcgraph-retaddr' has been introduced, and the
existing option 'sym-addr' can be used to control the format of the return
address.

See below logs with both funcgraph-retval and funcgraph-retaddr enabled.

0) | load_elf_binary() { /* <-bprm_execve+0x249/0x600 */
0) | load_elf_phdrs() { /* <-load_elf_binary+0x84/0x1730 */

This means filter hash allocated for the fixtures are not correctly

Free those hash lists after tests are done and split the loop for
initialize fixture and register fixture for rollback.

tracing: Support to dump instance traces by ftrace_dump_on_oops

Currently ftrace only dumps the global trace buffer on an OOPs. For
debugging a production usecase, instance trace will be helpful to
check specific problems since global trace buffer may be used for
other purposes.

This patch extend the ftrace_dump_on_oops parameter to dump a specific
or multiple trace instances:

- ftrace_dump_on_oops=0: as before -- don't dump
- ftrace_dump_on_oops[=1]: as before -- dump the global trace buffer
on all CPUs
- ftrace_dump_on_oops=2 or =orig_cpu: as before -- dump the global
trace buffer on CPU that triggered the oops
- ftrace_dump_on_oops=<instance_name>: new behavior -- dump the
tracing instance matching <instance_name>
- ftrace_dump_on_oops[=2/orig_cpu],<instance1_name>[=2/orig_cpu],
<instrance2_name>[=2/orig_cpu]: new behavior -- dump the global trace
buffer and multiple instance buffer on all CPUs, or only dump on CPU
that triggered the oops if =2 or =orig_cpu is given

Also, the sysctl node can handle the input accordingly.

tracing: Have function_graph selftest call cond_resched()

When all kernel debugging is enabled (lockdep, KSAN, etc), the function
graph enabling and disabling can take several seconds to complete. The
function_graph selftest enables and disables function graph tracing
several times. With full debugging enabled, the soft lockup watchdog was
triggering because the selftest was running without ever scheduling.

Add cond_resched() throughout the test to make sure it does not trigger
the soft lockup detector.

ftrace: selftest: remove broken trace_direct_tramp

The ftrace selftest code has a trace_direct_tramp() function which it
uses as a direct call trampoline. This happens to work on x86, since the
direct call's return address is in the usual place, and can be returned
to via a RET, but in general the calling convention for direct calls is
different from regular function calls, and requires a trampoline written
in assembly.

On s390, regular function calls place the return address in %r14, and an
ftrace patch-site in an instrumented function places the trampoline's
return address (which is within the instrumented function) in %r0,
preserving the original %r14 value in-place. As a regular C function
will return to the address in %r14, using a C function as the trampoline
results in the trampoline returning to the caller of the instrumented
function, skipping the body of the instrumented function.

Note that the s390 issue is not detcted by the ftrace selftest code, as
the instrumented function is trivial, and returning back into the caller
happens to be equivalent.

On arm64, regular function calls place the return address in x30, and
an ftrace patch-site in an instrumented function saves this into r9
and places the trampoline's return address (within the instrumented
function) in x30. A regular C function will return to the address in
x30, but will not restore x9 into x30. Consequently, using a C function
as the trampoline results in returning to the trampoline's return
address having corrupted x30, such that when the instrumented function
returns, it will return back into itself.

To avoid future issues in this area, remove the trace_direct_tramp()
function, and require that each architecture with direct calls provides
a stub trampoline, named ftrace_stub_direct_tramp. This can be written
to handle the architecture's trampoline calling convention, and in
future could be used elsewhere (e.g. in the ftrace ops sample, to
measure the overhead of direct calls), so we may as well always build it
in.

x86/ftrace: Make it call depth tracking aware

Since ftrace has trampolines, don't use thunks for the __fentry__ site
but instead require that every function called from there includes
accounting. This very much includes all the direct-call functions.

Additionally, ftrace uses ROP tricks in two places:

- return_to_handler(), and
- ftrace_regs_caller() when pt_regs->orig_ax is set by a direct-call.

return_to_handler() already uses a retpoline to replace an
indirect-jump to defeat IBT, since this is a jump-type retpoline, make
sure there is no accounting done and ALTERNATIVE the RET into a ret.

ftrace_regs_caller() does much the same and gets the same treatment.

tracing: Reset the function filter after completing trampoline/graph selftest

The direct trampoline and graph coexistence test sets global_ops to
trace only 'trace_selftest_dynamic_test_func', but does not reset it
after the test is completed, resulting in the function filter being set
already after the system starts. Although it can be reset through the
tracefs interface, it is more or less confusing to the user, and we
should reset it to trace all functions after the trampoline/graph test
completes.

requires the use of ftrace args being supported as well does some tricks
with dynamic tracing. Although this code checks HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS
it fails to check DYNAMIC_FTRACE, and the kernel fails to build due to
that dependency.

tracing: Disable ftrace selftests when any tracer is running

Disable ftrace selftests when any tracer (kernel command line options
like ftrace=, trace_events=, kprobe_events=, and boot-time tracing)
starts running because selftest can disturb it.

Currently ftrace= and trace_events= are checked, but kprobe_events
has a different flag, and boot-time tracing didn't checked. This unifies
the disabled flag and all of those boot-time tracing features sets
the flag.

This also fixes warnings on kprobe-event selftest
(CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST=y and CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS=y) with boot-time
tracing (ftrace.event.kprobes.EVENT.probes) like below;
