Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix some missing-prototype warnings - Fix user events struct args (did not include size of struct) When creating a user event, the "struct" keyword is to denote that the size of the field will be passed in. But the parsing failed to handle this case. - Add selftest to struct sizes for user events - Fix sample code for direct trampolines. The sample code for direct trampolines attached to handle_mm_fault(). But the prototype changed and the direct trampoline sample code was not updated. Direct trampolines needs to have the arguments correct otherwise it can fail or crash the system. - Remove unused ftrace_regs_caller_ret() prototype. - Quiet false positive of FORTIFY_SOURCE Due to backward compatibility, the structure used to save stack traces in the kernel had a fixed size of 8. This structure is exported to user space via the tracing format file. A change was made to allow more than 8 functions to be recorded, and user space now uses the size field to know how many functions are actually in the stack. But the structure still has size of 8 (even though it points into the ring buffer that has the required amount allocated to hold a full stack. This was fine until the fortifier noticed that the memcpy(&entry->caller, stack, size) was greater than the 8 functions and would complain at runtime about it. Hide this by using a pointer to the stack location on the ring buffer instead of using the address of the entry structure caller field. - Fix a deadloop in reading trace_pipe that was caused by a mismatch between ring_buffer_empty() returning false which then asked to read the data, but the read code uses rb_num_of_entries() that returned zero, and causing a infinite "retry". - Fix a warning caused by not using all pages allocated to store ftrace functions, where this can happen if the linker inserts a bunch of "NULL" entries, causing the accounting of how many pages needed to be off. - Fix histogram synthetic event crashing when the start event is removed and the end event is still using a variable from it - Fix memory leak in freeing iter->temp in tracing_release_pipe() * tag 'trace-v6.5-rc1-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: tracing: Fix memory leak of iter->temp when reading trace_pipe tracing/histograms: Add histograms to hist_vars if they have referenced variables tracing: Stop FORTIFY_SOURCE complaining about stack trace caller ftrace: Fix possible warning on checking all pages used in ftrace_process_locs() ring-buffer: Fix deadloop issue on reading trace_pipe tracing: arm64: Avoid missing-prototype warnings selftests/user_events: Test struct size match cases tracing/user_events: Fix struct arg size match check x86/ftrace: Remove unsued extern declaration ftrace_regs_caller_ret() arm64: ftrace: Add direct call trampoline samples support samples: ftrace: Save required argument registers in sample trampolines
