Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix error output of boot instance creation failure

   Currently if a boot instance creation fails, instead of printing out
   the name of the instance that failed, it prints "(null)". That is
   because it prints "cur_str" that had already been processed by
   strsep(). Print the saved name instead.

   While at it, print the error code of the failure.

 - Fix use-after-free for same named historgrams

   Histograms can be named so that they can be used in multiple events.
   But if the named histogram has a variable attached, the second event
   that uses the named histogram which duplicates it and needs to free
   the original after duplication leaves the old variable in place and
   still visible. If another histogram uses than variable, it will use
   the stale one which will try to reference the freed duplicate
   histogram and crash the kernel.

   Free the duplicate variables along with the duplicated histogram
   data.

 - Check return value of kthread_run() in event self test

   The events self tests uses a kthread for testing but does not check
   if it succeeded in creating a kthread. If the kthread creation were
   to fail, the code will still try to call kthread_stop() on the error
   returned.

 - Fix race between reading trace_pipe and updating subbuffer size

   If a user is reading the trace_pipe file at the same time they update
   the ring buffer sub-buffer size, can cause the trace_pipe read to
   read stale data. Add trace_access_lock() around updating the ring
   buffer sub-buffer size.

 - Fix eventfs_inode on failure path in creation of the events directory

   In the creation of the "events" directory, if after allocating the
   eventfs_inode a failure is detected, it calls cleanup_ei() which
   calls free_ei(). The free_ei() will test if eventfs_inode being freed
   has no children. It is a bug if it does. But on the failure case of
   the creation of the "events" directory, the children lists have not
   yet been initialized and the free will trigger a warning because
   list_empty() on an uninitialized list returns false.

   Move the initialization into init_ei() where it makes more sense and
   makes sure that a created eventfs_inode has its lists initialized
   upon creation.

 - Check return value of kthread_run() in ftrace direct sample code

   The sample code that shows how to use the ftrace direct calls does
   not test the return of kthread_run() to see if it succeeds. Return a
   failure if the kthread_run() doesn't succeed.

 - Clear user events state on fork in case of alloc failure

   On fork, the child gets a pointer to the parent's user events state.
   It makes a copy of it then updates the child's pointer to it. But if
   the allocation fails, the duplication function leaves the child with
   a pointer to its parent's descriptor. When the child cleans up its
   data, it will free the parent's descriptor while the parent is still
   using it.

   In the duplication function, set the child's user_event_mm to NULL
   before testing if the allocation succeeded, and when it exits it will
   not free the parent's descriptor.

 - Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap

   simple_ring_buffer_swap_reader_page() starts with retry set to 8 and
   post-decrements it only after a failed link replacement. On the final
   attempt, a successful replacement leaves retry at zero, while a
   failed replacement leaves it at -1.

   But the check for success expects the retry value to be non-zero and
   exits with an error on zero. This is the opposite result. Fix it.

 - Fail nicely when the remote swap_reader_page() returns an error

   Currently, if the swap_reader_page() of a remote buffer fails, it
   triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE() and continues normally. Instead, have it
   exit with an error and a pr_warn() print instead of a full WARNING.

+===============================
+Kernel Memory Sanitizer (KMSAN)
+===============================
+
+KMSAN is a dynamic error detector aimed at finding uses of uninitialized
+values. It is based on compiler instrumentation, and is quite similar to the
+userspace `MemorySanitizer tool`_.
+
+An important note is that KMSAN is not intended for production use, because it
+drastically increases kernel memory footprint and slows the whole system down.
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+Building the kernel
+-------------------
+
+In order to build a kernel with KMSAN you will need a fresh Clang (14.0.6+).
+Please refer to `LLVM documentation`_ for the instructions on how to build Clang.
+
+Now configure and build the kernel with CONFIG_KMSAN enabled.
+
+Example report
+--------------
+
+Here is an example of a KMSAN report::
+
+  =====================================================

+  =====================================================
+
+The report says that the local variable ``uninit`` was created uninitialized in
+``do_uninit_local_array()``. The third stack trace corresponds to the place
+where this variable was created.
+
+The first stack trace shows where the uninit value was used (in
+``test_uninit_kmsan_check_memory()``). The tool shows the bytes which were left
+uninitialized in the local variable, as well as the stack where the value was
+copied to another memory location before use.
+
+A use of uninitialized value ``v`` is reported by KMSAN in the following cases:
+
+ - in a condition, e.g. ``if (v) { ... }``;
+ - in an indexing or pointer dereferencing, e.g. ``array[v]`` or ``*v``;
+ - when it is copied to userspace or hardware, e.g. ``copy_to_user(..., &v, ...)``;
+ - when it is passed as an argument to a function, and
+   ``CONFIG_KMSAN_CHECK_PARAM_RETVAL`` is enabled (see below).
+
+The mentioned cases (apart from copying data to userspace or hardware, which is
+a security issue) are considered undefined behavior from the C11 Standard point
+of view.
+
+Disabling the instrumentation
+-----------------------------
+
+A function can be marked with ``__no_kmsan_checks``. Doing so makes KMSAN
+ignore uninitialized values in that function and mark its output as initialized.
+As a result, the user will not get KMSAN reports related to that function.
+
+Another function attribute supported by KMSAN is ``__no_sanitize_memory``.
+Applying this attribute to a function will result in KMSAN not instrumenting
+it, which can be helpful if we do not want the compiler to interfere with some
+low-level code (e.g. that marked with ``noinstr`` which implicitly adds
+``__no_sanitize_memory``).
+
+This however comes at a cost: stack allocations from such functions will have
+incorrect shadow/origin values, likely leading to false positives. Functions
+called from non-instrumented code may also receive incorrect metadata for their
+parameters.
+
+As a rule of thumb, avoid using ``__no_sanitize_memory`` explicitly.
+
+It is also possible to disable KMSAN for a single file (e.g. main.o)::
+
+  KMSAN_SANITIZE_main.o := n
+
+or for the whole directory::
+
+  KMSAN_SANITIZE := n
+
+in the Makefile. Think of this as applying ``__no_sanitize_memory`` to every
+function in the file or directory. Most users won't need KMSAN_SANITIZE, unless
+their code gets broken by KMSAN (e.g. runs at early boot time).
+
+KMSAN checks can also be temporarily disabled for the current task using
+``kmsan_disable_current()`` and ``kmsan_enable_current()`` calls. Each
+``kmsan_enable_current()`` call must be preceded by a
+``kmsan_disable_current()`` call; these call pairs may be nested. One needs to
+be careful with these calls, keeping the regions short and preferring other
+ways to disable instrumentation, where possible.
+
+Support
+=======
+
+In order for KMSAN to work the kernel must be built with Clang, which so far is
+the only compiler that has KMSAN support. The kernel instrumentation pass is
+based on the userspace `MemorySanitizer tool`_.
+
+The runtime library only supports x86_64 at the moment.
+
+How KMSAN works
+===============
+
+KMSAN shadow memory
+-------------------
+
+KMSAN associates a metadata byte (also called shadow byte) with every byte of
+kernel memory. A bit in the shadow byte is set if the corresponding bit of the
+kernel memory byte is uninitialized. Marking the memory uninitialized (i.e.
+setting its shadow bytes to ``0xff``) is called poisoning, marking it
+initialized (setting the shadow bytes to ``0x00``) is called unpoisoning.
+
+When a new variable is allocated on the stack, it is poisoned by default by
+instrumentation code inserted by the compiler (unless it is a stack variable
+that is immediately initialized). Any new heap allocation done without
+``__GFP_ZERO`` is also poisoned.
+
+Compiler instrumentation also tracks the shadow values as they are used along
+the code. When needed, instrumentation code invokes the runtime library in
+``mm/kmsan/`` to persist shadow values.
+
+The shadow value of a basic or compound type is an array of bytes of the same
+length. When a constant value is written into memory, that memory is unpoisoned.
+When a value is read from memory, its shadow memory is also obtained and
+propagated into all the operations which use that value. For every instruction
+that takes one or more values the compiler generates code that calculates the
+shadow of the result depending on those values and their shadows.
+
+Example::
+
+  int a = 0xff;  // i.e. 0x000000ff
+  int b;
+  int c = a | b;
+
+In this case the shadow of ``a`` is ``0``, shadow of ``b`` is ``0xffffffff``,
+shadow of ``c`` is ``0xffffff00``. This means that the upper three bytes of
+``c`` are uninitialized, while the lower byte is initialized.
+
+Origin tracking
+---------------
+
+Every four bytes of kernel memory also have a so-called origin mapped to them.
+This origin describes the point in program execution at which the uninitialized
+value was created. Every origin is associated with either the full allocation
+stack (for heap-allocated memory), or the function containing the uninitialized
+variable (for locals).
+
+When an uninitialized variable is allocated on stack or heap, a new origin
+value is created, and that variable's origin is filled with that value. When a
+value is read from memory, its origin is also read and kept together with the
+shadow. For every instruction that takes one or more values, the origin of the
+result is one of the origins corresponding to any of the uninitialized inputs.
+If a poisoned value is written into memory, its origin is written to the
+corresponding storage as well.
+
+Example 1::
+
+  int a = 42;
+  int b;
+  int c = a + b;
+
+In this case the origin of ``b`` is generated upon function entry, and is
+stored to the origin of ``c`` right before the addition result is written into
+memory.
+
+Several variables may share the same origin address, if they are stored in the
+same four-byte chunk. In this case every write to either variable updates the
+origin for all of them. We have to sacrifice precision in this case, because
+storing origins for individual bits (and even bytes) would be too costly.
+
+Example 2::
+
+  int combine(short a, short b) {
+    union ret_t {
+      int i;
+      short s[2];
+    } ret;
+    ret.s[0] = a;
+    ret.s[1] = b;
+    return ret.i;
+  }
+
+If ``a`` is initialized and ``b`` is not, the shadow of the result would be
+0xffff0000, and the origin of the result would be the origin of ``b``.
+``ret.s[0]`` would have the same origin, but it will never be used, because
+that variable is initialized.
+
+If both function arguments are uninitialized, only the origin of the second
+argument is preserved.
+
+Origin chaining
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To ease debugging, KMSAN creates a new origin for every store of an
+uninitialized value to memory. The new origin references both its creation stack
+and the previous origin the value had. This may cause increased memory
+consumption, so we limit the length of origin chains in the runtime.
+
+Clang instrumentation API
+-------------------------
+
+Clang instrumentation pass inserts calls to functions defined in
+``mm/kmsan/nstrumentation.c`` into the kernel code.
+
+Shadow manipulation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+For every memory access the compiler emits a call to a function that returns a
+pair of pointers to the shadow and origin addresses of the given memory::
+
+  typedef struct {
+    void *shadow, *origin;
+  } shadow_origin_ptr_t
+
+  shadow_origin_ptr_t __msan_metadata_ptr_for_load_{1,2,4,8}(void *addr)
+  shadow_origin_ptr_t __msan_metadata_ptr_for_store_{1,2,4,8}(void *addr)
+  shadow_origin_ptr_t __msan_metadata_ptr_for_load_n(void *addr, uintptr_t size)
+  shadow_origin_ptr_t __msan_metadata_ptr_for_store_n(void *addr, uintptr_t size)
+
+The function name depends on the memory access size.
+
+The compiler makes sure that for every loaded value its shadow and origin
+values are read from memory. When a value is stored to memory, its shadow and
+origin are also stored using the metadata pointers.
+
+Handling locals
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+A special function is used to create a new origin value for a local variable and
+set the origin of that variable to that value::
+
+  void __msan_poison_alloca(void *addr, uintptr_t size, char *descr)
+
+Access to per-task data
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+At the beginning of every instrumented function KMSAN inserts a call to
+``__msan_get_context_state()``::
+
+  kmsan_context_state *__msan_get_context_state(void)
+
+``kmsan_context_state`` is declared in ``include/linux/kmsan.h``::
+
+  struct kmsan_context_state {
+    char param_tls[KMSAN_PARAM_SIZE];
+    char retval_tls[KMSAN_RETVAL_SIZE];
+    char va_arg_tls[KMSAN_PARAM_SIZE];
+    char va_arg_origin_tls[KMSAN_PARAM_SIZE];
+    u64 va_arg_overflow_size_tls;
+    char param_origin_tls[KMSAN_PARAM_SIZE];
+    depot_stack_handle_t retval_origin_tls;
+  };
+
+This structure is used by KMSAN to pass parameter shadows and origins between
+instrumented functions (unless the parameters are checked immediately by
+``CONFIG_KMSAN_CHECK_PARAM_RETVAL``).
+
+Passing uninitialized values to functions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Clang's MemorySanitizer instrumentation has an option,
+``-fsanitize-memory-param-retval``, which makes the compiler check function
+parameters passed by value, as well as function return values.
+
+The option is controlled by ``CONFIG_KMSAN_CHECK_PARAM_RETVAL``, which is
+enabled by default to let KMSAN report uninitialized values earlier.
+Please refer to the `LKML discussion`_ for more details.
+
+Because of the way the checks are implemented in LLVM (they are only applied to
+parameters marked as ``noundef``), not all parameters are guaranteed to be
+checked, so we cannot give up the metadata storage in ``kmsan_context_state``.
+
+String functions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The compiler replaces calls to ``memcpy()``/``memmove()``/``memset()`` with the
+following functions. These functions are also called when data structures are
+initialized or copied, making sure shadow and origin values are copied alongside
+with the data::
+
+  void *__msan_memcpy(void *dst, void *src, uintptr_t n)
+  void *__msan_memmove(void *dst, void *src, uintptr_t n)
+  void *__msan_memset(void *dst, int c, uintptr_t n)
+
+Error reporting
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+For each use of a value the compiler emits a shadow check that calls
+``__msan_warning()`` in the case that value is poisoned::
+
+  void __msan_warning(u32 origin)
+
+``__msan_warning()`` causes KMSAN runtime to print an error report.
+
+Inline assembly instrumentation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+KMSAN instruments every inline assembly output with a call to::
+
+  void __msan_instrument_asm_store(void *addr, uintptr_t size)
+
+, which unpoisons the memory region.
+
+This approach may mask certain errors, but it also helps to avoid a lot of
+false positives in bitwise operations, atomics etc.
+
+Sometimes the pointers passed into inline assembly do not point to valid memory.
+In such cases they are ignored at runtime.
+
+
+Runtime library
+---------------
+
+The code is located in ``mm/kmsan/``.
+
+Per-task KMSAN state
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Every task_struct has an associated KMSAN task state that holds the KMSAN
+context (see above) and a per-task counter disallowing KMSAN reports::
+
+  struct kmsan_context {
+    ...
+    unsigned int depth;
+    struct kmsan_context_state cstate;
+    ...
+  }
+
+  struct task_struct {
+    ...
+    struct kmsan_context kmsan;
+    ...
+  }
+
+KMSAN contexts
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When running in a kernel task context, KMSAN uses ``current->kmsan.cstate`` to
+hold the metadata for function parameters and return values.
+
+But in the case the kernel is running in the interrupt, softirq or NMI context,
+where ``current`` is unavailable, KMSAN switches to per-cpu interrupt state::
+
+  DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct kmsan_ctx, kmsan_percpu_ctx);
+
+Metadata allocation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+There are several places in the kernel for which the metadata is stored.
+
+1. Each ``struct page`` instance contains two pointers to its shadow and
+origin pages::
+
+  struct page {
+    ...
+    struct page *shadow, *origin;
+    ...
+  };
+
+At boot-time, the kernel allocates shadow and origin pages for every available
+kernel page. This is done quite late, when the kernel address space is already
+fragmented, so normal data pages may arbitrarily interleave with the metadata
+pages.
+
+This means that in general for two contiguous memory pages their shadow/origin
+pages may not be contiguous. Consequently, if a memory access crosses the
+boundary of a memory block, accesses to shadow/origin memory may potentially
+corrupt other pages or read incorrect values from them.
+
+In practice, contiguous memory pages returned by the same ``alloc_pages()``
+call will have contiguous metadata, whereas if these pages belong to two
+different allocations their metadata pages can be fragmented.
+
+For the kernel data (``.data``, ``.bss`` etc.) and percpu memory regions
+there also are no guarantees on metadata contiguity.
+
+In the case ``__msan_metadata_ptr_for_XXX_YYY()`` hits the border between two
+pages with non-contiguous metadata, it returns pointers to fake shadow/origin regions::
+
+  char dummy_load_page[PAGE_SIZE] __attribute__((aligned(PAGE_SIZE)));
+  char dummy_store_page[PAGE_SIZE] __attribute__((aligned(PAGE_SIZE)));
+
+``dummy_load_page`` is zero-initialized, so reads from it always yield zeroes.
+All stores to ``dummy_store_page`` are ignored.
+
+2. For vmalloc memory and modules, there is a direct mapping between the memory
+range, its shadow and origin. KMSAN reduces the vmalloc area by 3/4, making only
+the first quarter available to ``vmalloc()``. The second quarter of the vmalloc
+area contains shadow memory for the first quarter, the third one holds the
+origins. A small part of the fourth quarter contains shadow and origins for the
+kernel modules. Please refer to ``arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable_64_types.h`` for
+more details.
+
+When an array of pages is mapped into a contiguous virtual memory space, their
+shadow and origin pages are similarly mapped into contiguous regions.
