Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:

 - Don't destroy user event fields when removal fails

   User event fields are destroyed before the event is removed from
   visibility. But that can fail leaving the still visible event with no
   fields. Move the destroying of the fields to after the event is
   successfully removed from visibility.

 - Initialize function graph state is fork before calling
   copy_exec_state()

   For non-CLONE_VM forks, copy_exec_state() allocates a new
   task_exec_state. If that allocation fails, ftrace_graph_exit_task()
   will free the tasks ret_stack pointer. Since that pointer is still
   using the parent's ret_stack, it mistakenly frees the parent's
   pointer too.

   Call ftrace_graph_init() on the task first which will NULL out the
   new tasks's ret_stack and if the copy fails, it will not free
   anything.

 - Remove FGRAPH_MAX_INDEX

   The macro FGRAPH_MAX_INDEX was added but never used. Remove it.

 - Save ent_size in function graph printing of nested functions

   The function graph tracer needs to look at the next event to see if
   the next event is the return of the current function entry. If it is,
   it prints a single line:

	ktime_get();

   Otherwise it prints it like a nested function:

	tick_nohz_irq_exit() {
	    ktime_get();
	    kcpustat_irq_exit();
	}

   In order to look at the next event, it must save the current event so
   that it has the information to print from it. It saves the event in
   the iterator descriptor called "ent". What it doesn't save is the
   ent_size of the event which is now used to know if the function graph
   arguments are to be printed. The peek doesn't save the size so the
   size used happens to be that of the size of the last event that was
   seen.

   Save the entry event size in the iterator descriptor so that the
   correct size is used.

 - Fix several errors with freeing data in the histogram code

   The histogram code had a lot of leaked or or incorrect accounting
   when failures happen. Correct them.

 - Fix histogram regression of .percent and .graph modifiers

   Up until 6.3 histogram values could have "percent" or "graph"
   modifiers that changed how they were printed. But a change that added
   restricting histograms values from being strings, stack traces and
   other modifiers inadvertently prevented them from using the percent
   and graph modifiers, which were legal use cases for values.

   Put back the percent and graph modifiers.

 - Fix various typos in the comments

 - Set the trace_clock before initializing a histogram with clock
   argument

   The histogram API allows the user to specific which trace clock to
   use via a "clock=" string. The histogram is set up first before the
   clock is checked. If the passed in clock is not valid, it exits
   without fully fixing up the histogram leaving it on the list and a
   use-after-free can trigger.

   Update the clock argument first and if it fails then exit gracefully
   before the histogram trigger is placed on any lists.

 - Restore :mod: trailer after parsing in ftrace_set_clr_event

   The function ftrace_set_clr_event() modifies the parse string and
   needs to put it back to what was passed in. It searches for ":mod:"
   via a strsep() but fails to put back the first ':' in the string.

   Add back the ':' in the passed in string.

 - Take trace_array reference when opening a tracer options file

   The options files are dynamically created and some tracers add their
   own options. When a tracer adds their own list of options, the
   trace_array holding them has an array to hold the list of options for
   each tracer. This array increases in size via a krealloc(), and the
   new entry gets a newly allocated array to hold the options of the new
   tracer being added.

   The element in each entry of the tracer's option array holds a
   pointer back to the trace_array, a pointer to the tracer it is
   associated to, a pointer to the flags of the option.

   The issue is that these arrays are freed when the trace_array is
   freed when its instance it represents is removed from the instances
   directory. There's a race that an open of one of these options files
   can happen when the instance is being removed.

   Add a new helper function to be called by the open function of the
   options file to iterate all existing trace_arrays under a lock and
   find the one that has the given option element in one of it's tracer
   arrays. If found, then update the associated trace_array's reference
   counter to keep it from being freed. If not found, have the open call
   return -ENODEV.

 - Disable interrupts when acquiring the lock in rb_wake_up_waiters()

   The function rb_wake_up_waiters() assumes it will be called in
   interrupt context and does not disable irqs when taking
   cpu_buffer->reader_lock, which can be called in hard interrupt
   context. The issue is in PREEMPT_RT, this function is called in
   thread context leaving this lock open to a deadlock.

   Take the lock with interrupts disabled.

 - Use rcu_assign_pointer() for tmp_ops filter hash

   The tmp_ops used in update_ftrace_direct_mod() assigns its
   filter_hash field directly, but that field is annotated as __rcu and
   sparse complains. Assign it with rcu_assign_pointer()

 - Fix use-after-free in enable_trigger_private_data_free()

   The trace_event_call is accessed through the event_trigger_data's
   trace_event_file pointer to put the trace_event_call on freeing. The
   issue is that the trace_event_file data may have been freed already
   causing a use-after-free. Add a field to the event_trigger_data that
   points directly to the trace_event_call so that it can decrement its
   reference directly without needing to go through the
   trace_event_file.

 - Fix accounting of buffer data remote headers

   trace_buffer_desc_size() and trace_remote_alloc_buffer() undercount
   the number of pages is needed for the asked for size as it doesn't
   take into account the meta data on each page. Add a helper function
   to do the calculation properly and use that in these functions.

 - Catch nr_page_va overflow in ring_buffer_desc sizing

   The number of pages per remote ring buffer is capped by
   ring_buffer_desc::nr_page_va (32 bits). A buffer_size large enough to
   overflow that field would silently allocate a descriptor smaller than
   what was asked for.

 - Do not resize the subbuf order if any per_cpu buffer is disabled

   The mmapping of ring buffers disables resizing the subbuffers, but it
   is done per-cpu whereas the subbuf size change is done for all the
   per_cpu buffers under the buffer->mutex. It could change the size of
   some while the mapping is happening on others. Have the resize of the
   subbuf order check all the per_cpu buffers under the lock to see if
   any of them is disabled before starting and causing an inconsistency
   between buffers that are being mapped.

+===================================
+NT synchronization primitive driver
+===================================
+
+This page documents the user-space API for the ntsync driver.
+
+ntsync is a support driver for emulation of NT synchronization
+primitives by user-space NT emulators. It exists because implementation
+in user-space, using existing tools, cannot match Windows performance
+while offering accurate semantics. It is implemented entirely in
+software, and does not drive any hardware device.
+
+This interface is meant as a compatibility tool only, and should not
+be used for general synchronization. Instead use generic, versatile
+interfaces such as futex(2) and poll(2).
+
+Synchronization primitives
+==========================
+
+The ntsync driver exposes three types of synchronization primitives:
+semaphores, mutexes, and events.
+
+A semaphore holds a single volatile 32-bit counter, and a static 32-bit
+integer denoting the maximum value. It is considered signaled (that is,
+can be acquired without contention, or will wake up a waiting thread)
+when the counter is nonzero. The counter is decremented by one when a
+wait is satisfied. Both the initial and maximum count are established
+when the semaphore is created.
+
+A mutex holds a volatile 32-bit recursion count, and a volatile 32-bit
+identifier denoting its owner. A mutex is considered signaled when its
+owner is zero (indicating that it is not owned). The recursion count is
+incremented when a wait is satisfied, and ownership is set to the given
+identifier.
+
+A mutex also holds an internal flag denoting whether its previous owner
+has died; such a mutex is said to be abandoned. Owner death is not
+tracked automatically based on thread death, but rather must be
+communicated using ``NTSYNC_IOC_MUTEX_KILL``. An abandoned mutex is
+inherently considered unowned.
+
+Except for the "unowned" semantics of zero, the actual value of the
+owner identifier is not interpreted by the ntsync driver at all. The
+intended use is to store a thread identifier; however, the ntsync
+driver does not actually validate that a calling thread provides
+consistent or unique identifiers.
+
+An event is similar to a semaphore with a maximum count of one. It holds
+a volatile boolean state denoting whether it is signaled or not. There
+are two types of events, auto-reset and manual-reset. An auto-reset
+event is designaled when a wait is satisfied; a manual-reset event is
+not. The event type is specified when the event is created.
+
+Unless specified otherwise, all operations on an object are atomic and
+totally ordered with respect to other operations on the same object.
+
+Objects are represented by files. When all file descriptors to an
+object are closed, that object is deleted.
+
+Char device
+===========
+
+The ntsync driver creates a single char device /dev/ntsync. Each file
+description opened on the device represents a unique instance intended
+to back an individual NT virtual machine. Objects created by one ntsync
+instance may only be used with other objects created by the same
+instance.
+
+ioctl reference
+===============
+
+All operations on the device are done through ioctls. There are four
+structures used in ioctl calls::
+
+   struct ntsync_sem_args {
+   	__u32 count;
+   	__u32 max;
+   };
+
+   struct ntsync_mutex_args {
+   	__u32 owner;
+   	__u32 count;
+   };
+
+   struct ntsync_event_args {
+   	__u32 manual;
+   	__u32 signaled;
+   };
+
+   struct ntsync_wait_args {
+   	__u64 timeout;
+   	__u64 objs;
+   	__u32 count;
+   	__u32 index;
+   	__u32 flags;
+   	__u32 owner;
+   	__u32 alert;
+   	__u32 pad;
+   };
+
+Depending on the ioctl, members of the structure may be used as input,
+output, or not at all.
+
+The ioctls on the device file are as follows:
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_CREATE_SEM
+
+  Create a semaphore object. Takes a pointer to struct
+  :c:type:`ntsync_sem_args`, which is used as follows:
+
+  .. list-table::
+
+     * - ``count``
+       - Initial count of the semaphore.
+     * - ``max``
+       - Maximum count of the semaphore.
+
+  Fails with ``EINVAL`` if ``count`` is greater than ``max``.
+  On success, returns a file descriptor the created semaphore.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_CREATE_MUTEX
+
+  Create a mutex object. Takes a pointer to struct
+  :c:type:`ntsync_mutex_args`, which is used as follows:
+
+  .. list-table::
+
+     * - ``count``
+       - Initial recursion count of the mutex.
+     * - ``owner``
+       - Initial owner of the mutex.
+
+  If ``owner`` is nonzero and ``count`` is zero, or if ``owner`` is
+  zero and ``count`` is nonzero, the function fails with ``EINVAL``.
+  On success, returns a file descriptor the created mutex.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_CREATE_EVENT
+
+  Create an event object. Takes a pointer to struct
+  :c:type:`ntsync_event_args`, which is used as follows:
+
+  .. list-table::
+
+     * - ``signaled``
+       - If nonzero, the event is initially signaled, otherwise
+         nonsignaled.
+     * - ``manual``
+       - If nonzero, the event is a manual-reset event, otherwise
+         auto-reset.
+
+  On success, returns a file descriptor the created event.
+
+The ioctls on the individual objects are as follows:
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_SEM_RELEASE
+
+  Post to a semaphore object. Takes a pointer to a 32-bit integer,
+  which on input holds the count to be added to the semaphore, and on
+  output contains its previous count.
+
+  If adding to the semaphore's current count would raise the latter
+  past the semaphore's maximum count, the ioctl fails with
+  ``EOVERFLOW`` and the semaphore is not affected. If raising the
+  semaphore's count causes it to become signaled, eligible threads
+  waiting on this semaphore will be woken and the semaphore's count
+  decremented appropriately.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_MUTEX_UNLOCK
+
+  Release a mutex object. Takes a pointer to struct
+  :c:type:`ntsync_mutex_args`, which is used as follows:
+
+  .. list-table::
+
+     * - ``owner``
+       - Specifies the owner trying to release this mutex.
+     * - ``count``
+       - On output, contains the previous recursion count.
+
+  If ``owner`` is zero, the ioctl fails with ``EINVAL``. If ``owner``
+  is not the current owner of the mutex, the ioctl fails with
+  ``EPERM``.
+
+  The mutex's count will be decremented by one. If decrementing the
+  mutex's count causes it to become zero, the mutex is marked as
+  unowned and signaled, and eligible threads waiting on it will be
+  woken as appropriate.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_EVENT_SET
+
+  Signal an event object. Takes a pointer to a 32-bit integer, which on
+  output contains the previous state of the event.
+
+  Eligible threads will be woken, and auto-reset events will be
+  designaled appropriately.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_EVENT_RESET
+
+  Designal an event object. Takes a pointer to a 32-bit integer, which
+  on output contains the previous state of the event.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_EVENT_PULSE
+
+  Wake threads waiting on an event object while leaving it in an
+  unsignaled state. Takes a pointer to a 32-bit integer, which on
+  output contains the previous state of the event.
+
+  A pulse operation can be thought of as a set followed by a reset,
+  performed as a single atomic operation. If two threads are waiting on
+  an auto-reset event which is pulsed, only one will be woken. If two
+  threads are waiting a manual-reset event which is pulsed, both will
+  be woken. However, in both cases, the event will be unsignaled
+  afterwards, and a simultaneous read operation will always report the
+  event as unsignaled.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_SEM_READ
+
+  Read the current state of a semaphore object. Takes a pointer to
+  struct :c:type:`ntsync_sem_args`, which is used as follows:
+
+  .. list-table::
+
+     * - ``count``
+       - On output, contains the current count of the semaphore.
+     * - ``max``
+       - On output, contains the maximum count of the semaphore.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_MUTEX_READ
+
+  Read the current state of a mutex object. Takes a pointer to struct
+  :c:type:`ntsync_mutex_args`, which is used as follows:
+
+  .. list-table::
+
+     * - ``owner``
+       - On output, contains the current owner of the mutex, or zero
+         if the mutex is not currently owned.
+     * - ``count``
+       - On output, contains the current recursion count of the mutex.
+
+  If the mutex is marked as abandoned, the function fails with
+  ``EOWNERDEAD``. In this case, ``count`` and ``owner`` are set to
+  zero.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_EVENT_READ
+
+  Read the current state of an event object. Takes a pointer to struct
+  :c:type:`ntsync_event_args`, which is used as follows:
+
+  .. list-table::
+
+     * - ``signaled``
+       - On output, contains the current state of the event.
+     * - ``manual``
+       - On output, contains 1 if the event is a manual-reset event,
+         and 0 otherwise.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_MUTEX_KILL
+
+  Mark a mutex as unowned and abandoned if it is owned by the given
+  owner. Takes an input-only pointer to a 32-bit integer denoting the
+  owner. If the owner is zero, the ioctl fails with ``EINVAL``. If the
+  owner does not own the mutex, the function fails with ``EPERM``.
+
+  Eligible threads waiting on the mutex will be woken as appropriate
+  (and such waits will fail with ``EOWNERDEAD``, as described below).
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_WAIT_ANY
+
+  Poll on any of a list of objects, atomically acquiring at most one.
+  Takes a pointer to struct :c:type:`ntsync_wait_args`, which is
+  used as follows:
+
+  .. list-table::
+
+     * - ``timeout``
+       - Absolute timeout in nanoseconds. If ``NTSYNC_WAIT_REALTIME``
+         is set, the timeout is measured against the REALTIME clock;
+         otherwise it is measured against the MONOTONIC clock in the
+         caller's time namespace. If the timeout is equal to or earlier
+         than the current time, the function returns immediately
+         without sleeping. If ``timeout`` is U64_MAX, the function will
+         sleep until an object is signaled, and will not fail with
+         ``ETIMEDOUT``.
+     * - ``objs``
+       - Pointer to an array of ``count`` file descriptors
+         (specified as an integer so that the structure has the same
+         size regardless of architecture). If any object is
+         invalid, the function fails with ``EINVAL``.
+     * - ``count``
+       - Number of objects specified in the ``objs`` array.
+         If greater than ``NTSYNC_MAX_WAIT_COUNT``, the function fails
+         with ``EINVAL``.
+     * - ``owner``
+       - Mutex owner identifier. If any object in ``objs`` is a mutex,
+         the ioctl will attempt to acquire that mutex on behalf of
+         ``owner``. If ``owner`` is zero, the ioctl fails with
+         ``EINVAL``.
+     * - ``index``
+       - On success, contains the index (into ``objs``) of the object
+         which was signaled. If ``alert`` was signaled instead,
+         this contains ``count``.
+     * - ``alert``
+       - Optional event object file descriptor. If nonzero, this
+         specifies an "alert" event object which, if signaled, will
+         terminate the wait. If nonzero, the identifier must point to a
+         valid event.
+     * - ``flags``
+       - Zero or more flags. Currently the only flag is
+         ``NTSYNC_WAIT_REALTIME``, which causes the timeout to be
+         measured against the REALTIME clock instead of MONOTONIC.
+     * - ``pad``
+       - Unused, must be set to zero.
+
+  This function attempts to acquire one of the given objects. If unable
+  to do so, it sleeps until an object becomes signaled, subsequently
+  acquiring it, or the timeout expires. In the latter case the ioctl
+  fails with ``ETIMEDOUT``. The function only acquires one object, even
+  if multiple objects are signaled.
+
+  A semaphore is considered to be signaled if its count is nonzero, and
+  is acquired by decrementing its count by one. A mutex is considered
+  to be signaled if it is unowned or if its owner matches the ``owner``
+  argument, and is acquired by incrementing its recursion count by one
+  and setting its owner to the ``owner`` argument. An auto-reset event
+  is acquired by designaling it; a manual-reset event is not affected
+  by acquisition.
+
+  Acquisition is atomic and totally ordered with respect to other
+  operations on the same object. If two wait operations (with different
+  ``owner`` identifiers) are queued on the same mutex, only one is
+  signaled. If two wait operations are queued on the same semaphore,
+  and a value of one is posted to it, only one is signaled.
+
+  If an abandoned mutex is acquired, the ioctl fails with
+  ``EOWNERDEAD``. Although this is a failure return, the function may
+  otherwise be considered successful. The mutex is marked as owned by
+  the given owner (with a recursion count of 1) and as no longer
+  abandoned, and ``index`` is still set to the index of the mutex.
+
+  The ``alert`` argument is an "extra" event which can terminate the
+  wait, independently of all other objects.
+
+  It is valid to pass the same object more than once, including by
+  passing the same event in the ``objs`` array and in ``alert``. If a
+  wakeup occurs due to that object being signaled, ``index`` is set to
+  the lowest index corresponding to that object.
+
+  The function may fail with ``EINTR`` if a signal is received.
+
+.. c:macro:: NTSYNC_IOC_WAIT_ALL
+
+  Poll on a list of objects, atomically acquiring all of them. Takes a
+  pointer to struct :c:type:`ntsync_wait_args`, which is used
+  identically to ``NTSYNC_IOC_WAIT_ANY``, except that ``index`` is
+  always filled with zero on success if not woken via alert.
+
+  This function attempts to simultaneously acquire all of the given
+  objects. If unable to do so, it sleeps until all objects become
+  simultaneously signaled, subsequently acquiring them, or the timeout
+  expires. In the latter case the ioctl fails with ``ETIMEDOUT`` and no
+  objects are modified.
+
+  Objects may become signaled and subsequently designaled (through
+  acquisition by other threads) while this thread is sleeping. Only
+  once all objects are simultaneously signaled does the ioctl acquire
+  them and return. The entire acquisition is atomic and totally ordered
+  with respect to other operations on any of the given objects.
+
+  If an abandoned mutex is acquired, the ioctl fails with
+  ``EOWNERDEAD``. Similarly to ``NTSYNC_IOC_WAIT_ANY``, all objects are
+  nevertheless marked as acquired. Note that if multiple mutex objects
+  are specified, there is no way to know which were marked as
+  abandoned.
+
+  As with "any" waits, the ``alert`` argument is an "extra" event which
+  can terminate the wait. Critically, however, an "all" wait will
+  succeed if all members in ``objs`` are signaled, *or* if ``alert`` is
+  signaled. In the latter case ``index`` will be set to ``count``. As
+  with "any" waits, if both conditions are filled, the former takes
+  priority, and objects in ``objs`` will be acquired.
+
+  Unlike ``NTSYNC_IOC_WAIT_ANY``, it is not valid to pass the same
+  object more than once, nor is it valid to pass the same object in
+  ``objs`` and in ``alert``. If this is attempted, the function fails
+  with ``EINVAL``.
