Hi Eric,

Thanks for the comments..

When tracefs is mounted inside a container, its files are visible to
all containers. This implies that a user from within a container can
list/delete uprobes registered elsewhere, leading to security issues
and/or denial of service (Eg. deleting a probe that is registered from
elsewhere). This patch addresses this problem by adding mount option
'newinstance', allowing containers to have their own instance mounted
separately. Something like the below from within a container:
newinstance is an anti-pattern in devpts and should not be copied.
To fix some severe defects of devpts we had to always create new
istances and the code and the testing to make that all work was

OK..

not pleasant.  Please don't add another option that we will just have to
make redundant later.

IIUC, you mean, implicitly create a new instance for tracefs mount
inside container without the need for a new option?

Thanks
Hari

   $ mount -o newinstance -t tracefs tracefs /sys/kernel/tracing
   $
   $
   $ perf probe /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 malloc
   Added new event:
     probe_libc:malloc    (on malloc in /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6)

   You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

        perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1

   $
   $
   $ perf probe --list
     probe_libc:malloc    (on __libc_malloc in /lib64/libc.so.6)
   $

while another container/host has a completely different view:


   $ perf probe --list
     probe_libc:memset    (on __libc_memset in /lib64/libc.so.6)
   $

This patch reuses the code that provides support to create new instances
under tracefs instances directory.
