While rewriting the function probe code, I stumbled over a long standing
bug. This bug has been there sinc function tracing was added way back
when. But my new development depends on this bug being fixed, and it
should be fixed regardless as it causes ftrace to disable itself when
triggered, and a reboot is required to enable it again.
The bug is that the function probe does not disable itself properly
if there's another probe of its type still enabled. For example:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo schedule:traceoff > set_ftrace_filter
# echo do_IRQ:traceoff > set_ftrace_filter
# echo \!do_IRQ:traceoff > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
# echo do_IRQ:traceoff > set_ftrace_filter
The above registers two traceoff probes (one for schedule and one for
do_IRQ, and then removes do_IRQ. But since there still exists one for
schedule, it is not done properly. When adding do_IRQ back, the breakage
in the accounting is noticed by the ftrace self tests, and it causes
a warning and disables ftrace.
ftrace: Fix removing of second function probe
When two function probes are added to set_ftrace_filter, and then one of
them is removed, the update to the function locations is not performed, and
the record keeping of the function states are corrupted, and causes an
ftrace_bug() to occur.
This is easily reproducable by adding two probes, removing one, and then
adding it back again.
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo schedule:traceoff > set_ftrace_filter
# echo do_IRQ:traceoff > set_ftrace_filter
# echo \!do_IRQ:traceoff > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
# echo do_IRQ:traceoff > set_ftrace_filter
