It use to be that only the top level instance had a snapshot buffer (for
latency tracers like wakeup and irqsoff). When stopping a tracer in an
instance would not disable the snapshot buffer. This could have some
unintended consequences if the irqsoff tracer is enabled.
Consolidate the tracing_start/stop() with tracing_start/stop_tr() so that
all instances behave the same. The tracing_start/stop() functions will
just call their respective tracing_start/stop_tr() with the global_array
passed in.

When the ring buffer is being resized, it can cause side effects to the
running tracer. For instance, there's a race with irqsoff tracer that
swaps individual per cpu buffers between the main buffer and the snapshot
buffer. The resize operation modifies the main buffer and then the
snapshot buffer. If a swap happens in between those two operations it will
break the tracer.
Simply stop the running tracer before resizing the buffers and enable it
again when finished.

It use to be that only the top level instance had a snapshot buffer (for
latency tracers like wakeup and irqsoff). The update of the ring buffer
size would check if the instance was the top level and if so, it would
also update the snapshot buffer as it needs to be the same as the main
buffer.
Now that lower level instances also has a snapshot buffer, they too need
to update their snapshot buffer sizes when the main buffer is changed,
otherwise the following can be triggered:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 1500 > buffer_size_kb
# mkdir instances/foo
# echo irqsoff > instances/foo/current_tracer
# echo 1000 > instances/foo/buffer_size_kb
Produces:
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 856 at kernel/trace/trace.c:1938 update_max_tr_single.part.0+0x27d/0x320
Which is:
ret = ring_buffer_swap_cpu(tr->max_buffer.buffer, tr->array_buffer.buffer, cpu);
if (ret == -EBUSY) {
[..]
}
WARN_ON_ONCE(ret && ret != -EAGAIN && ret != -EBUSY); <== here
That's because ring_buffer_swap_cpu() has:
int ret = -EINVAL;
[..]
/* At least make sure the two buffers are somewhat the same */
if (cpu_buffer_a->nr_pages != cpu_buffer_b->nr_pages)
goto out;
[..]
out:
return ret;
}
Instead, update all instances' snapshot buffer sizes when their main
buffer size is updated.
