eventfs: Hold eventfs_mutex when calling callback functions

The callback function that is used to create inodes and dentries is not
protected by anything and the data that is passed to it could become
stale. After eventfs_remove_dir() is called by the tracing system, it is
free to remove the events that are associated to that directory.
Unfortunately, that means the callbacks must not be called after that.

CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
eventfs_root_lookup() {
eventfs_remove_dir() {
mutex_lock(&event_mutex);
ei->is_freed = set;
mutex_unlock(&event_mutex);
}
kfree(event_call);

for (...) {
entry = &ei->entries[i];
r = entry->callback() {
call = data; // call == event_call above
if (call->flags ...)

[ USE AFTER FREE BUG ]

The safest way to protect this is to wrap the callback with:

mutex_lock(&eventfs_mutex);
if (!ei->is_freed)
r = entry->callback();
else
r = -1;
mutex_unlock(&eventfs_mutex);

This will make sure that the callback will not be called after it is
freed. But now it needs to be known that the callback is called while
holding internal eventfs locks, and that it must not call back into the
eventfs / tracefs system. There's no reason it should anyway, but document
that as well.

eventfs: Use eventfs_remove_events_dir()

The update to removing the eventfs_file changed the way the events top
level directory was handled. Instead of returning a dentry, it now returns
the eventfs_inode. In this changed, the removing of the events top level
directory is not much different than removing any of the other
directories. Because of this, the removal just called eventfs_remove_dir()
instead of eventfs_remove_events_dir().

Although eventfs_remove_dir() does the clean up, it misses out on the
dget() of the ei->dentry done in eventfs_create_events_dir(). It makes
more sense to match eventfs_create_events_dir() with a specific function
eventfs_remove_events_dir() and this specific function can then perform
the dput() to the dentry that had the dget() when it was created.

eventfs: Remove eventfs_file and just use eventfs_inode

Instead of having a descriptor for every file represented in the eventfs
directory, only have the directory itself represented. Change the API to
send in a list of entries that represent all the files in the directory
(but not other directories). The entry list contains a name and a callback
function that will be used to create the files when they are accessed.

struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_events_dir(const char *name, struct dentry *parent,
const struct eventfs_entry *entries,
int size, void *data);

is used for the top level eventfs directory, and returns an eventfs_inode
that will be used by:

struct eventfs_inode *eventfs_create_dir(const char *name, struct eventfs_inode *parent,
const struct eventfs_entry *entries,
int size, void *data);

where both of the above take an array of struct eventfs_entry entries for
every file that is in the directory.

The entries are defined by:

typedef int (*eventfs_callback)(const char *name, umode_t *mode, void **data,
const struct file_operations **fops);

struct eventfs_entry {
const char *name;
eventfs_callback callback;
};

Where the name is the name of the file and the callback gets called when
the file is being created. The callback passes in the name (in case the
same callback is used for multiple files), a pointer to the mode, data and
fops. The data will be pointing to the data that was passed in
eventfs_create_dir() or eventfs_create_events_dir() but may be overridden
to point to something else, as it will be used to point to the
inode->i_private that is created. The information passed back from the
callback is used to create the dentry/inode.

If the callback fills the data and the file should be created, it must
return a positive number. On zero or negative, the file is ignored.

This logic may also be used as a prototype to convert entire pseudo file
systems into just-in-time allocation.

The "show_events_dentry" file has been updated to show the directories,
and any files they have.

With just the eventfs_file allocations:

eventfs: Implement removal of meta data from eventfs

When events are removed from tracefs, the eventfs must be aware of this.
The eventfs_remove() removes the meta data from eventfs so that it will no
longer create the files associated with that event.

When an instance is removed from tracefs, eventfs_remove_events_dir() will
remove and clean up the entire "events" directory.

The helper function eventfs_remove_rec() is used to clean up and free the
associated data from eventfs for both of the added functions. SRCU is used
to protect the lists of meta data stored in the eventfs. The eventfs_mutex
is used to protect the content of the items in the list.

As lookups may be happening as deletions of events are made, the freeing
of dentry/inodes and relative information is done after the SRCU grace
period has passed.

eventfs_add_file() to add the data needed for files within the directories
below the top level events directory. The dentry/inode of the file will be

tracing: Have mkdir and rmdir be part of tracefs

The tracing "instances" directory can create sub tracing buffers
with mkdir, and remove them with rmdir. As a mkdir will also create
all the files and directories that control the sub buffer the inode
mutexes need to be released before this is done, to avoid deadlocks.
It is better to let the tracing system unlock the inode mutexes before
calling the functions that create the files within the new directory
(or deletes the files from the one being destroyed).

Now that tracing has been converted over to tracefs, the tracefs file
system can be modified to accommodate this feature. It still releases
the locks, but the filesystem itself can take care of the ugly
business and let the user just do what it needs.

The tracing system now attaches a descriptor to the directory dentry
that can have userspace create or remove sub directories. If this
descriptor does not exist for a dentry, then that dentry can not be
used to create other directories. This descriptor holds a mkdir and
rmdir method that only takes a character string as an argument.

The tracefs file system will first make a copy of the dentry name
before releasing the locks. Then it will pass the copied name to the
methods. It is up to the tracing system that supplied the methods to
handle races with duplicate names and such as all the inode mutexes
would be released when the functions are called.

tracefs: Add new tracefs file system

Add a separate file system to handle the tracing directory. Currently it
is part of debugfs, but that is starting to show its limits.

One thing is that in order to access the tracing infrastructure, you need
to mount debugfs. As that includes debugging from all sorts of sub systems
in the kernel, it is not considered advisable to mount such an all
encompassing debugging system.

Having the tracing system in its own file systems gives access to the
tracing sub system without needing to include all other systems.

Another problem with tracing using the debugfs system is that the
instances use mkdir to create sub buffers. debugfs does not support mkdir
from userspace so to implement it, special hacks were used. By controlling
the file system that the tracing infrastructure uses, this can be properly
done without hacks.
