Fix: pid tracker should track "pgid"

The "pid" notion exposed by LTTng translates to the "pgid" notion in the
Linux kernel. Therefore using "current->pid" as argument to the PID
tracker actually ends up behaving as a "tid" tracker, which does not
match the intent nor the user-space tracer behavior.

Fix: add "flush empty" ioctl for stream intersection

Changing the behavior of the "snapshot" lttng command to implicitly do a
buffer "flush" (even when current packet is empty) had unwanted
side-effects: for instance, the snapshot ABI is used by the live timer
to grab the buffer positions, and we don't want to generate useless
empty packets in that scenario.

Therefore, add the "flush empty" behavior as a new ioctl to the ring
buffer. This allows lttng-tools to perform buffer flush (even for empty
packets) when it needs to. Given that this new ioctl is added within
stable branches as well, lttng-tools always need to handle "-ENOSYS"
gracefully.

Fix: nmi-safe clock on 32-bit systems

On 32-bit systems, the algorithm within lttng-modules that ensures the
nmi-safe clock increases monotonically on a CPU assumes to have one
clock read per 32-bit LSB overflow period, which is not guaranteed. It
also has an issue on the first clock reads after module load, because
the initial value for the last LSB is 0. It can cause the time to stay
stuck at the same value for a few seconds at the beginning of the trace,
which is unfortunate for the first trace after module load, because this
is where the offset between realtime and trace_clock is sampled, which
prevents correlation of kernel and user-space traces for that session.

It only affects 32-bit systems with kernels >= 3.17.

Fix this by using the non-nmi-safe clock source on 32-bit systems.

While we are there, remove an implementation-defined c99 behavior
regarding casting u64 to long by using unsigned arithmetic instead:

turn:
  if (((long) now - (long) last) < 0)
into:

Older kernels (e.g. 2.6.38.8) don't seem to handle subdirectory in the

Fix: annotate bytecode interpreter for kernel stack validator

With gcc 6.1.1, kernel 4.6, with
CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION=y, building lttng-modules master
at commit 6c09dd94 gives this warning:

lttng-modules/lttng-filter-interpreter.o: warning: objtool:
lttng_filter_interpret_bytecode()+0x58: sibling call from
callable instruction with changed frame pointer

This object implements a bytecode interpreter using an explicit
jump table.

If we define "INTERPRETER_USE_SWITCH" at the top of the file,
thus using the switch-case fallback implementation, the
warning vanishes.

We use an explicit jump table rather than a switch case whenever
possible for performance reasons.

Unfortunately objtool doesn't know how to validate this type of jump
table. So to avoid the warning we need to add an annotation to tell
objtool to ignore it.

Kernel developers has to annotate __bpf_prog_run() in the kernel for the
same reason.

Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>

Fix: don't perform extra flush on metadata channel

The metadata channel requires that the LTTng client layer and the ring
buffer keep a notion of the amount of data produced in the channel.

This issue has been introduced recently by commit
"Fix: flush empty packets on snapshot channel".

Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>

Fix: flush empty packets on snapshot channel

Snapshot operation on a non-stopped stream should use a "final" flush to
ensure empty packets are flushed, so we gather timestamps at the moment
where the snapshot is taken. This is important for streams that have a
low amount of activity.

Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>

Fix: do not generate packet at destroy after stop

In the following scenario:
- create, enable events (kernel),
- start
- ...
- stop (await for data_pending to complete)
- destroy
- rm the trace directory

We would expect that the "rm" operation would not conflict with the
consumer daemon trying to output data into the trace files, since the
"stop" operation ensured that there was no data_pending.

However, the "destroy" operation currently generates an extra packet
after the data_pending check. This causes the consumer daemon to try to
perform trace file rotation concurrently with the trace directory
removal in the scenario above, which triggers errors. The main reason
why this empty packet is generated by "destroy" is to deal with trace
start/stop scenario which would otherwise generate a completely empty
stream.

Therefore, introduce the concept of a "quiescent stream". It is
initialized at false on stream creation (first packet is empty). When
tracing is started, it is set to false (for cases of start/stop/start).
When tracing is stopped, if the stream is not quiescent, perform a
"final" flush (which will generate an empty packet if the current packet
was empty), and set quiescent to true.  On "destroy" stream: if the
stream is not quiescent, perform a "final" flush, and set the quiescent
state to true.

Fix: compat ioctl for flush/get metadata version

Unlike the non-compat version, the compat ioctl lttng ABI code for the
ring buffer flush operation does not invoke
lttng_metadata_output_channel before calling the ring buffer operation.
This could lead to incomplete metadata on 64-bit kernels running with
32-bit lttng userland.

There is also a discrepancy between the non-compat and compat code: the
GET_METADATA_VERSION operation is performed before calling the ring
buffer code. Ensure both non-compat and compat code are alike.
