Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"The previous fix to trace_marker required updating trace_marker_raw as
well. The difference between trace_marker_raw from trace_marker is
that the raw version is for applications to write binary structures
directly into the ring buffer instead of writing ASCII strings. This
is for applications that will read the raw data from the ring buffer
and get the data structures directly. It's a bit quicker than using
the ASCII version.
Unfortunately, it appears that our test suite has several tests that
test writes to the trace_marker file, but lacks any tests to the
trace_marker_raw file (this needs to be remedied). Two issues came
about the update to the trace_marker_raw file that syzbot found:
- Fix tracing_mark_raw_write() to use per CPU buffer
The fix to use the per CPU buffer to copy from user space was
needed for both the trace_maker and trace_maker_raw file.
The fix for reading from user space into per CPU buffers properly
fixed the trace_marker write function, but the trace_marker_raw
file wasn't fixed properly. The user space data was correctly
written into the per CPU buffer, but the code that wrote into the
ring buffer still used the user space pointer and not the per CPU
buffer that had the user space data already written.
- Stop the fortify string warning from writing into trace_marker_raw
After converting the copy_from_user_nofault() into a memcpy(),
another issue appeared. As writes to the trace_marker_raw expects
binary data, the first entry is a 4 byte identifier. The entry
structure is defined as:
struct {
struct trace_entry ent;
int id;
char buf[];
};
The size of this structure is reserved on the ring buffer with:
size = sizeof(*entry) + cnt;
Then it is copied from the buffer into the ring buffer with:
memcpy(&entry->id, buf, cnt);
This use to be a copy_from_user_nofault(), but now converting it to
a memcpy() triggers the fortify-string code, and causes a warning.
The allocated space is actually more than what is copied, as the
cnt used also includes the entry->id portion. Allocating
sizeof(*entry) plus cnt is actually allocating 4 bytes more than
what is needed.
Change the size function to:
size = struct_size(entry, buf, cnt - sizeof(entry->id));
And update the memcpy() to unsafe_memcpy()"

The fix to use a per CPU buffer to read user space tested only the writes
to trace_marker. But it appears that the selftests are missing tests to
the trace_maker_raw file. The trace_maker_raw file is used by applications
that writes data structures and not strings into the file, and the tools
read the raw ring buffer to process the structures it writes.
The fix that reads the per CPU buffers passes the new per CPU buffer to
the trace_marker file writes, but the update to the trace_marker_raw write
read the data from user space into the per CPU buffer, but then still used
then passed the user space address to the function that records the data.
Pass in the per CPU buffer and not the user space address.

After commit 5ab23c7923 ("modpost: Create modalias for builtin

when attempting to strip the module device table symbols:
riscv64-linux-objcopy: not stripping symbol `__mod_device_table__kmod_irq_starfive_jh8100_intc__of__starfive_intc_irqchip_match_table' because it is named in a relocation
make[4]: *** [scripts/Makefile.vmlinux:97: vmlinux] Error 1
The relocation appears to come from .LASANLOC5 in .data.rel.local:
$ llvm-objdump --disassemble-symbols=.LASANLOC5 --disassemble-all -r drivers/irqchip/irq-starfive-jh8100-intc.o
drivers/irqchip/irq-starfive-jh8100-intc.o: file format elf64-littleriscv

...
This section appears to come from GCC for including additional
information about global variables that may be protected by KASAN.
There appears to be no way to opt out of the generation of these symbols
through either a flag or attribute. Attempting to remove '.LASANLOC*'
with '--strip-symbol' results in the same error as above because these
symbols may refer to (thus have relocation between) each other.
Avoid this build breakage by switching to '--strip-unneeded-symbol' for
removing __mod_device_table__ symbols, as it will only remove the symbol
when there is no relocation pointing to it. While this may result in a
little more bloat in the symbol table in certain configurations, it is
not as bad as outright build failures.
