commit 88b30c7f5d27e1594d70dc2bd7199b18f2b57fa9 upstream.
The synth_event_gen_test module can be built in, if someone wants to run
the tests at boot up and not have to load them.
The synth_event_gen_test_init() function creates and enables the synthetic
events and runs its tests.
The synth_event_gen_test_exit() disables the events it created and
destroys the events.
If the module is builtin, the events are never disabled. The issue is, the
events should be disable after the tests are run. This could be an issue
if the rest of the boot up tests are enabled, as they expect the events to
be in a known state before testing. That known state happens to be
disabled.
When CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENT_GEN_TEST=y and CONFIG_EVENT_TRACE_STARTUP_TEST=y
a warning will trigger:
Running tests on trace events:
Testing event create_synth_test:
Enabled event during self test!

This is because the synth_event_gen_test_init() left the synthetic events
that it created enabled. By having it disable them after testing, the
other selftests will run fine.

Currently, sythetic events only support static string fields such as:
# echo 'test_latency u64 lat; char somename[32]' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
Which is fine, but wastes a lot of space in the event.
It also prevents the most commonly-defined strings in the existing
trace events e.g. those defined using __string(), from being passed to
synthetic events via the trace() action.
With this change, synthetic events with dynamic fields can be defined:
# echo 'test_latency u64 lat; char somename[]' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
And the trace() action can be used to generate events using either
dynamic or static strings:
# echo 'hist:keys=name:lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:onmatch(sys.event).test_latency($lat,name)' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events
The synthetic event dynamic strings are implemented in the same way as
the existing __data_loc strings and appear as such in the format file.
[ <rostedt@goodmis.org>: added __set_synth_event_print_fmt() changes:
I added the following to make it work with trace-cmd. Dynamic strings
must have __get_str() for events in the print_fmt otherwise it can't be
parsed correctly. ]

The test code that tests synthetic event creation pushes in as one of its
test fields the current CPU using "smp_processor_id()". As this is just
something to see if the value is correctly passed in, and the actual CPU
used does not matter, use raw_smp_processor_id(), otherwise with debug
preemption enabled, a warning happens as the smp_processor_id() is called
without preemption enabled.

synth_event_trace() is the varargs version of synth_event_trace_array(),
which takes an array of u64, as do synth_event_add_val() et al.
To not only be consistent with those, but also to address the fact
that synth_event_trace() expects every arg to be of the same type
since it doesn't also pass in e.g. a format string, the caller needs
to make sure all args are of the same type, u64. u64 is used because
it needs to accomodate the largest type available in synthetic events,
which is u64.
This fixes the bug reported by the kernel test robot/Rong Chen.
