Steven Rostedt (VMware) 02f4e01ce7 tracing: Initialize val to zero in parse_entry of inject code
gcc produces a variable may be uninitialized warning for "val" in
parse_entry(). This is really a false positive, but the code is subtle
enough to just initialize val to zero and it's not a fast path to worry
about it.

Marked for stable to remove the warning in the stable trees as well.

YueHaibing a61f810567 tracing: remove set but not used variable 'buffer'
kernel/trace/trace_events_inject.c: In function trace_inject_entry:
kernel/trace/trace_events_inject.c:20:22: warning: variable buffer set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

It is never used, so remove it.

Cong Wang 6c3edaf9fd tracing: Introduce trace event injection
We have been trying to use rasdaemon to monitor hardware errors like
correctable memory errors. rasdaemon uses trace events to monitor
various hardware errors. In order to test it, we have to inject some
hardware errors, unfortunately not all of them provide error
injections. MCE does provide a way to inject MCE errors, but errors
like PCI error and devlink error don't, it is not easy to add error
injection to each of them. Instead, it is relatively easier to just
allow users to inject trace events in a generic way so that all trace
events can be injected.

This patch introduces trace event injection, where a new 'inject' is
added to each tracepoint directory. Users could write into this file
with key=value pairs to specify the value of each fields of the trace
event, all unspecified fields are set to zero values by default.

For example, for the net/net_dev_queue tracepoint, we can inject:

  INJECT=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/inject
  echo "" > $INJECT
  echo "name='test'" > $INJECT
  echo "name='test' len=1024" > $INJECT
  cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
  ...
   <...>-614   [000] ....    36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0
   <...>-614   [001] ....   136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0
   <...>-614   [001] .N..   208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024

Triggers could be triggered as usual too:

  echo "stacktrace if len == 1025" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/trigger
  echo "len=1025" > $INJECT
  cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
  ...
      bash-614   [000] ....    36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0
      bash-614   [001] ....   136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0
      bash-614   [001] .N..   208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024
      bash-614   [001] .N.1   284.236349: <stack trace>
 => event_inject_write
 => vfs_write
 => ksys_write
 => do_syscall_64
 => entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe

The only thing that can't be injected is string pointers as they
require constant string pointers, this can't be done at run time.
