Test: Replace test relying on pselect6(2) man page ambiguity

The `pselect_fd_too_big` test is checking for the case where the `nfds`
is larger than the number of open files allowed for this process
(RLIMIT_NOFILE).

According to the ERRORS section of the pselect6(2) kernel man page[1], if
`nfds` > RLIMIT_NOFILE is evaluate to true the pselect6 syscall should
return EINVAL but the BUGS section mentions that the current
implementation ignores any FD larger than the highest numbered FD of the
current process.

This is in fact what happens. The Linux implementation of the pselect6
syscall[2] does not compare the `nfds` and RLIMIT_NOFILE, but rather caps
`nfds` to the highest numbered FD of the current process as the BUGS
kernel man page mentionned.

It was observed elsewhere that there is a discrepancy between the manual
page and the implementation[3].

As a solution, replace the current testcase with one that checks the
behaviour of the syscall when an invalid FD is passed.

Fix: explicitly send client credentials during handshake

The notification client does not send its credentials during
the handshake. However, the session daemon will still receive
them except in very rare, and hard to reproduce, cases.

It appears that the kernel will provide the credential cmsg
regardless of whether or not the client has actually sent them.

Inspecting the kernel source (af_unix.c) seems to indicate that
the credentials will be passed on sendmsg whenever one of the
sockets involved has set the SO_PASSCRED flag. It also seems to
maintain compatibility with applications that expect write() to

Fix: use "flush empty" ioctl for snapshots

When the flush empty ioctl is available, use it to produce an empty
packet at the end of the snapshot, which ensures the stream intersection
feature works.

If this specific ioctl is not available, fallback on the "flush" ioctl,
which does not produce empty packets.

In that situation, there were two prior behaviors possible for
lttng-modules: earlier versions implement a "snapshot" command which
does not perform an implicit "flush_empty". In that case, the stream
intersection feature may not be reliable. In more recent lttng-modules
versions (included stable branch) which did not implement the
flush_empty ioctl, the snapshot ioctl implicitly performed a
flush_empty, which makes the stream intersection feature work, but has
side-effects on the snapshot ioctl performed by the live timer (produces
a stream of empty packets in live mode).

Jérémie Galarneau [Mon, 8 May 2017 19:06:25 +0000 (15:06 -0400)] 
Fix: consumer data lock deadlock caused by monitor timer

The execution of the monitor timer takes the consumer data lock
which causes three threads to deadlock.

The consumer_thread_data_poll_thread takes the lock during
the teardown of a channel. This teardown stops the channel's
timers and, to ensure that the timers are not fired on a free'd
channel, uses a custom SIG_TEARDOWN signal as a "bubble" inserted
the signal processing "queue". It then waits until this signal
has been processed to release the consumer data lock.

The sessiond_poll_thread is creating a channel and waits on
the consumer data lock.

Meanwhile, the timer thread is blocked on this same lock
during the processing of the monitor timer signal which
prevents the queue from being flushed, causing the destruction
of the channel to never reach completion.

There is no need to take the consumer data lock in the monitor
timer code since the channel's existence is guaranteed by
the SIG_TEARDOWN mechanism.

Fix: syscall_table_nb_entry invalid value when no syscalls TPs are defined

v3: change commit message to include information regarding off-by-one
problems induced by 'index' and the use of 'index' as value of
syscall_table_nb_entry.

--

fscanf on an empty file returns directly without assigning value to
'index' leading to assigning the value of an uninitialized variable to
syscall_table_nb_entry. This can result in memory allocation problems
when listing syscalls on 'lttng list --kernel --syscall'[1][2].

Fixes at the same time an off-by-one problem for the
syscall_table_nb_entry value and an off-by-one error on table memory
reallocation.

The index value returned by fscanf is an index starting at 0. It is
later assigned to syscall_table_nb_entry which is used for memory
allocation and iteration during syscall_table_list. Forgetting to add 1
results in losing the last syscall during listing.

The parsed index value is also used to count how many elements should be
allocated during table reallocation, without any extra increment which
result in an off-by-one error. Hence, make sure to increment its value by
one when assigning the value of syscall_table_nb_entry. It does not
cause issues in practice because SYSCALL_TABLE_INIT_SIZE is nonzero, and
because we don't require the table to expand by more than the double of
its size at once (which could happen if we could have a hole in the
syscall table for instance).

7 years agoAdd support for "full" star globbing patterns in event names and filters
Philippe Proulx [Wed, 15 Feb 2017 16:38:36 +0000 (11:38 -0500)] 
Add support for "full" star globbing patterns in event names and filters

This patch adds the support for "full" star-only globbing patterns to be
used in event names and filter literal strings. A star-only globbing
pattern is a globbing pattern with the star (`*`) being the only special
character. This means `?` and character sets (`[abc-k]`) are not
supported here. We cannot support them without a strategy to
differentiate the globbing pattern because `?` and `[` are not special
characters in event names passed on the command line and filter literal
strings right now. The eventual strategy to support them would probably
look like this for event names:

    lttng enable-event --userspace --glob 'hell?-wo*rl[Ddz]42'

and like this for filter strings:

    filename =* "?sys*.[ch]"

The reason this patch adds the feature for both the event names and the
filter strings at the same time is that, for some agent domains, a
filter string is used to filter the logger name. For example:

    lttng enable-event --python 'hello*world'

In this case, the UST event name is always `lttng_python`, but a filter
string is added to the event rule:

    logger_name == "hello*world"

If I don't add support for filter strings in this patch, then the
globbing feature for event names would not work for all the domains.

src/bin/lttng/commands/enable_events.c
--------------------------------------
The exclusion validation code is cleaner. strutils_split() is used to
split the list (which also supports `\,` to escape delimiters). Then, if
the event name is a globbing pattern which only contains a wildcard star
at the end (the only valid globbing pattern before this patch), the
exclusions which also only contain a wildcard star at the end or no star
at all are validated like it was done previously, with the exception
that escape characters are considered now (that is, in the exclusion
`hello\*world`, `\*` is parsed as is: the star is not a wildcard).

src/bin/lttng-sessiond/cmd.c
----------------------------
The event name validation function is removed because the only thing it
checks is that a star can only appear at the end of the name. This is
not true anymore.

It is expected that the tracers's globbing matching algorithm expect
a globbing pattern without two or more consecutive stars:

    hello**world

Thus in _cmd_enable_event(), strutils_normalize_star_glob_pattern() is
used to "normalize" the star globbing patterns of event names and
exclusion names in place (if they exist). Normalizing here means
crushing consecutive stars as a single one, without considering escaped
stars:

    hello*\***world**** -> hello*\**world*

Note that this also means that the event and exclusion names given by
the user are not necessarily the ones remaining after the enable-event
command is executed. This should not be a problem as `lttng status`
shows the normalized names and normalization is an identity function
when the string is already normalized.

src/lib/lttng-ctl/filter/filter-visitor-generate-ir.c
-----------------------------------------------------
The literal string transformation is modified to include the type of
literal string in the node amongst:

* IR_LOAD_STRING_TYPE_PLAIN
* IR_LOAD_STRING_TYPE_GLOB_STAR_END
* IR_LOAD_STRING_TYPE_GLOB_STAR

This type is used for post-validation and bytecode translation.

src/lib/lttng-ctl/filter/filter-bytecode.h
src/lib/lttng-ctl/filter/filter-visitor-generate-bytecode.c
-----------------------------------------------------------
A new load bytecode operation is added: FILTER_OP_LOAD_STAR_GLOB_STRING.
When this operation is executed, it should load a string literal as a
full star globbing pattern. The star-at-the-end-only use case is still
expected to be handled by the FILTER_OP_LOAD_STRING operation to avoid
changing anything to the current behaviour.

src/bin/lttng-sessiond/lttng-ust-abi.h
--------------------------------------
Version 7.1 bumped to version 7.2 because a new "load" filter operation
is added to the list of bytecode operations, but the current operation
codes are not changed, so a 7.2 filter interpreter should interpret a
7.1 filter bytecode just fine.

src/common/kernel-ctl/kernel-ioctl.h
------------------------------------
Version 2.2 bumped to version 2.3 because a new "load" filter operation
is added to the list of bytecode operations, but the current operation
codes are not changed, so a 2.3 filter interpreter should interpret a
2.2 filter bytecode just fine.

src/lib/lttng-ctl/filter/filter-visitor-ir-normalize-glob-patterns.c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This IR visitor normalizes the literal string nodes when their type is
IR_LOAD_STRING_TYPE_GLOB_STAR_END or IR_LOAD_STRING_TYPE_GLOB_STAR.

src/lib/lttng-ctl/filter/filter-visitor-ir-validate-globbing.c
--------------------------------------------------------------
This IR visitor validates that:

1. When there's a binary operation between two literal strings, if one
   of them has the IR_LOAD_STRING_TYPE_GLOB_STAR type, the other one has
   the IR_LOAD_STRING_TYPE_PLAIN type.

   In other words, you cannot compare two globbing patterns, except for
   two globbing patterns with only a star at the end for backward
   compatibility reasons.

2. When there's a binary operation between two literal strings, if one
   of them is a (full) star globbing pattern, the binary operation is
   either == or !=.

src/lib/lttng-ctl/filter/filter-visitor-ir-validate-string.c
------------------------------------------------------------
The code to ensure that a wildcard star can only appear at the end of a
literal string is removed.

7 years agoAdd --enable-embedded-help option to embed --help messages in binaries
Philippe Proulx [Thu, 1 Dec 2016 06:29:38 +0000 (01:29 -0500)] 
Add --enable-embedded-help option to embed --help messages in binaries

This patch adds a configuration option to embed the help message within
the various executables of LTTng-tools instead of always launching the
man pager. This applies to the following commands:

    lttng --help
    lttng CMD --help
    lttng help CMD
    lttng-crash --help
    lttng-relayd --help
    lttng-sessiond --help

This is meant to be used by distributions which remove man pages or do
not have a man pager (embedded distributions, mostly). For example,
Buildroot is known to remove all man pages before it creates the final
image:

    rm -rf $(TARGET_DIR)/usr/man $(TARGET_DIR)/usr/share/man

If you pass the `--enable-embedded-help` option to the `configure`
script:

1. The configure script checks if `man` exists in the `PATH` environment
   variable. This tool is needed to generate the text versions of the
   man pages.

2. When you build LTTng-tools with `make`, the man pages are generated
   as usual (or they already exist in their troff version from a
   tarball), and their text versions are generated with `man`, with a
   fixed width set to 80 columns.

3. The text versions of the man pages are converted to literal C strings
   thanks to some `sed` magic:

   a. Replace `\` with `\\`.
   b. Replace `"` with `\"`.
   c. Add `"` prefix and `\n"` suffix to each line.

   This file is named `NAME.SECTION.h`, where `NAME` is the name of the
   man page and `SECTION` is its section. For example,
   `lttng-create.1.h`.

   I needed to add a `.PRECIOUS` target in `doc/man/Makefile.am` because
   otherwise `make` treats the troff man page files as intermediate
   files and removes them automatically. Then they need to be rebuilt
   to be installed.

4. In each C file where to show a help message, we check if the
   `--enable-embedded-help` option is set, and if so, we assign the
   included help message string to a static variable to be printed
   instead of executing the man pager.

This string added to the object file in #4 takes binary space, why is
why the `--enable-embedded-help` option is turned off by default.

The directories in the "master" `SUBDIRS` (`Makefile.am`) are reordered
so that `doc` is built before `src` since there's a direct dependency
when you pass `--enable-embedded-help`.

The `--disable-man-pages` and `--enable-embedded-help` options do not
form a valid configuration.
