* tracing/ksym_tracer: support quick clear for ksym_trace_filter -- v2Xiao Guangrong2009-07-231-18/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's rather boring to clear symbol one by one in ksym_trace_filter file, so, this patch will let ksym_trace_filter file support quickly clear all break points. We can write "0" to this file and it will clear all symbols for example: # cat ksym_trace_filter ksym_filter_head:rw- global_trace:rw- # echo 0 > ksym_trace_filter # cat ksym_trace_filter # Changelog v1->v2: Add other ways to clear all breakpoints by writing NULL or "*:---" to ksym_trace_filter file base on K.Prasad's suggestion Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> LKML-Reference: <4A67E092.3080202@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* tracing/ksym_tracer: fix write operation of ksym_trace_filterXiao Guangrong2009-07-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fix 2 bugs: - fix the return value of ksym_trace_filter_write() when we want to clear symbol in ksym_trace_filter file for example: # echo global_trace:rw- > /debug/tracing/ksym_trace_filter # echo global_trace:--- > /debug/tracing/ksym_trace_filter -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # cat /debug/tracing/ksym_trace_filter # We want to clear 'global_trace' in ksym_trace_filter, it complain with "Invalid argument", but the operation is successful - the "r--" access types is not allowed, but ksym_trace_filter file think it OK for example: # echo ksym_tracer_mutex:r-- > ksym_trace_filter -bash: echo: write error: Resource temporarily unavailable # dmesg ksym_tracer request failed. Try again later!! The error occur at register_kernel_hw_breakpoint(), but It's should at access types parser Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> LKML-Reference: <4A66863D.5090802@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The thing is that as block layer supports partial completion, the two cursors really aren't necessary and only cause confusion. In addition, manual management of request detail from low level drivers is cumbersome and error-prone at the very least. Another interesting duplicate fields are rq->[hard_]nr_sectors and rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors against rq->data_len and rq->bio->bi_size. This is more convoluted than the hard_ case. rq->[hard_]nr_sectors are initialized for requests with bio but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for !pc requests. rq->data_len is initialized for all request but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for pc requests. This causes good amount of confusion throughout block layer and its drivers and determining the request length has been a bit of black magic which may or may not work depending on circumstances and what the specific LLD is actually doing. rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors represent the number of sectors in the contiguous data area at the front. This is mainly used by drivers which transfers data by walking request segment-by-segment. This value always equals rq->bio->bi_size >> 9. However, data length for pc requests may not be multiple of 512 bytes and using this field becomes a bit confusing. In general, having multiple fields to represent the same property leads only to confusion and subtle bugs. With recent block low level driver cleanups, no driver is accessing or manipulating these duplicate fields directly. Drop all the duplicates. Now rq->sector means the current sector, rq->data_len the current total length and rq->bio->bi_size the current segment length. Everything else is defined in terms of these three and available only through accessors. * blk_recalc_rq_sectors() is collapsed into blk_update_request() and now handles pc and fs requests equally other than rq->sector update. This means that now pc requests can use partial completion too (no in-kernel user yet tho). * bio_cur_sectors() is replaced with bio_cur_bytes() as block layer now uses byte count as the primary data length. * blk_rq_pos() is now guranteed to be always correct. In-block users converted. * blk_rq_bytes() is now guaranteed to be always valid as is blk_rq_sectors(). In-block users converted. * blk_rq_sectors() is now guaranteed to equal blk_rq_bytes() >> 9. More convenient one is used. * blk_rq_bytes() and blk_rq_cur_bytes() are now inlined and take const pointer to request.

The initialization is done for all tasks by one process, but the idle tasks use the same initialization used by new tasks. If an interrupt happens on an idle task that just had the ret_stack created, but before the rest of the initialization took place, then we can corrupt the return address of the functions.

The problem is that this is called every time the function graph tracer is enabled, and the ret_stack is allocated for the idle tasks each time. Thus, the old ret_stack is lost and a memory leak is created. This is also dangerous because if an interrupt happened on another CPU with the init task and the ret_stack is replaced, we then lose all the return pointers for the interrupt, and a crash would take place.

Doing so adds these new capabilities to this tracepoint: - zero-copy and per-cpu splice() tracing - binary tracing without printf overhead - structured logging records exposed under /debug/tracing/events - trace events embedded in function tracer output and other plugins - user-defined, per tracepoint filter expressions ... Cons: - no dev_t info for the output of plug, unplug_timer and unplug_io events. no dev_t info for getrq and sleeprq events if bio == NULL. no dev_t info for rq_abort,...,rq_requeue events if rq->rq_disk == NULL. This is mainly because we can't get the deivce from a request queue. But this may change in the future. - A packet command is converted to a string in TP_assign, not TP_print. While blktrace do the convertion just before output. Since pc requests should be rather rare, this is not a big issue. - In blktrace, an event can have 2 different print formats, but a TRACE_EVENT has a unique format, which means we have some unused data in a trace entry. The overhead is minimized by using __dynamic_array() instead of __array(). I've benchmarked the ioctl blktrace vs the splice based TRACE_EVENT tracing: dd dd + ioctl blktrace dd + TRACE_EVENT (splice) 1 7.36s, 42.7 MB/s 7.50s, 42.0 MB/s 7.41s, 42.5 MB/s 2 7.43s, 42.3 MB/s 7.48s, 42.1 MB/s 7.43s, 42.4 MB/s 3 7.38s, 42.6 MB/s 7.45s, 42.2 MB/s 7.41s, 42.5 MB/s So the overhead of tracing is very small, and no regression when using those trace events vs blktrace. And the binary output of TRACE_EVENT is much smaller than blktrace: # ls -l -h -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8.8M 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 195K 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.7M 06-09 13:25 trace_splice.out Following are some comparisons between TRACE_EVENT and blktrace: plug: kjournald-480 [000] 303.084981: block_plug: [kjournald] kjournald-480 [000] 303.084981: 8,0 P N [kjournald] unplug_io: kblockd/0-118 [000] 300.052973: block_unplug_io: [kblockd/0] 1 kblockd/0-118 [000] 300.052974: 8,0 U N [kblockd/0] 1 remap: kjournald-480 [000] 303.085042: block_remap: 8,0 W 102736992 + 8 <- (8,8) 33384 kjournald-480 [000] 303.085043: 8,0 A W 102736992 + 8 <- (8,8) 33384 bio_backmerge: kjournald-480 [000] 303.085086: block_bio_backmerge: 8,0 W 102737032 + 8 [kjournald] kjournald-480 [000] 303.085086: 8,0 M W 102737032 + 8 [kjournald] getrq: kjournald-480 [000] 303.084974: block_getrq: 8,0 W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald] kjournald-480 [000] 303.084975: 8,0 G W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald] bash-2066 [001] 1072.953770: 8,0 G N [bash] bash-2066 [001] 1072.953773: block_getrq: 0,0 N 0 + 0 [bash] rq_complete: konsole-2065 [001] 300.053184: block_rq_complete: 8,0 W () 103669040 + 16 [0] konsole-2065 [001] 300.053191: 8,0 C W 103669040 + 16 [0] ksoftirqd/1-7 [001] 1072.953811: 8,0 C N (5a 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 24 00) [0] ksoftirqd/1-7 [001] 1072.953813: block_rq_complete: 0,0 N (5a 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 24 00) 0 + 0 [0] rq_insert: kjournald-480 [000] 303.084985: block_rq_insert: 8,0 W 0 () 102736984 + 8 [kjournald] kjournald-480 [000] 303.084986: 8,0 I W 102736984 + 8 [kjournald] Changelog from v2 -> v3: - use the newly introduced __dynamic_array().

When an event is recorded to the ring buffer with a delta time greater than what can be held in the event header, a time stamp event is created. If the the create timestamp falls over to the next buffer page, it is redundant because the buffer page holds a full time stamp. This patch will try to discard the time stamp when it falls to the start of the next page. This change also fixes a issues with disarding events. If most events are discarded, timestamps will start to creep into the ring buffer. If we do not discard the timestamps then they can fill up the ring buffer over time and waste space. This change will keep time stamps from filling up over another page. If something is recorded in the buffer page, and the rest is filtered, then the time stamps can only fill up to the end of the page.

The wrong pointer is being compared in order to check if the event can be freed from the buffer rather than discarded (i.e. marked as PAD). I noticed this when I was working on duration filtering. The bug is not deadly - it just results in lots of wasted space in the buffer. All filtered events are left in the buffer and marked as discarded, rather than being removed from the buffer to make space for other events. Unfortunately, when I fixed this bug, I got errors doing a filtered function trace. Multiple TIME_EXTEND events pile up in the buffer, and trigger the following loop overage warning in rb_iter_peek(): again: ... if (RB_WARN_ON(cpu_buffer, ++nr_loops > 10)) return NULL; I'm not sure what the best way is to fix this. I don't know if I should extend the loop threshhold, or if I should make the test more complex (ignore TIME_EXTEND events), or just get rid of this loop check completely. Note that if I implement a workaround for this, then I see another problem from rb_advance_iter(). I haven't tracked that one down yet. In general, it seems like the case of removing filtered events has not been working properly, and so some assumptions about buffer invariant conditions need to be revisited. Here's the patch for the simple fix: Compare correct pointer for checking if an event can be freed rather than left as discarded in the buffer.

This was because a profiled function may be preempted just before disabling interrupts. While the profiler is disabled and then reenabled, the preempted function could start again, and access the hash as it is being initialized. This just adds a check in the irq disabled part to check if the profiler is enabled, and if it is not then it will just exit. When the system is disabled, the profile_enabled variable is cleared before calling the unregistering of the function profiler. This unregistering calls stop machine which also acts as a synchronize schedule. [ Impact: fix panic in enabling/disabling function profiler ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The problem was partly due that the trace flags in the iterator was not set as well as the trace_pipe zeros out part of the iterator (including the flags) to be able to use the same routines as the trace file. trace_flags of the iterator should not cause any problems when not zeroed out by for trace_pipe.

| | | * | tracing/events: introduce __dynamic_array()Li Zefan2009-06-011-3/+3

As a side effect, now __get_str() can be used in TP_fast_assign but not only TP_print. Take XFS for example, we have the string length in the dirent, but the string itself is not NULL-terminated, so __dynamic_array() can be used: TRACE_EVENT(xfs_dir2, TP_PROTO(struct xfs_da_args *args), TP_ARGS(args), TP_STRUCT__entry( __field(int, namelen) __dynamic_array(char, name, args->namelen + 1) ... ), TP_fast_assign( char *name = __get_str(name); if (args->namelen) memcpy(name, args->name, args->namelen); name[args->namelen] = '\0'; __entry->namelen = args->namelen; ), TP_printk("name %.*s namelen %d", __entry->namelen ? __get_str(name) : NULL __entry->namelen) ); [ Impact: allow defining dynamic size arrays ] Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> LKML-Reference: <4A2384D2.3080403@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
| | | * | tracing: combine the default tracers into one configSteven Rostedt2009-06-011-16/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both event tracer and sched switch plugin are selected by default by all generic tracers. But if no generic tracer is enabled, their options appear. But ether one of them will select the other, thus it only makes sense to have the default tracers be selected by one option.

| | | * | tracing: fix config options to not show when automatically selectedSteven Rostedt2009-06-011-15/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are two options that are selected by all tracers, but we want to have those options available when no tracer is selected. These are The event tracer and sched switch tracer. The are enabled by all tracers, but if a tracer is not selected we want the options to appear. All tracers including them select TRACING. Thus what we would like to do is: config EVENT_TRACER bool "prompt" depends on TRACING select TRACING But that gives us a bug in the kbuild system since we just created a circular dependency. We only want the prompt to show when TRACING is off. This patch adds GENERIC_TRACER that all tracers will select instead of TRACING. The two options (sched switch and event tracer) will select TRACING directly and depend on !GENERIC_TRACER. This solves the cicular dependency.

| | | * | ftrace: add kernel command line function filteringSteven Rostedt2009-06-011-0/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using ftrace=function on the command line to trace functions on boot up, one can not filter out functions that are commonly called. This patch adds two new ftrace command line commands. ftrace_notrace=function-list ftrace_filter=function-list Where function-list is a comma separated list of functions to filter. The ftrace_notrace will make the functions listed not be included in the function tracing, and ftrace_filter will only trace the functions listed. These two act the same as the debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_notrace and debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_filter respectively. The simple glob expressions that are allowed by the filter files can also be used by the command line interface. ftrace_notrace=rcu*,*lock,*spin* Will not trace any function that starts with rcu, ends with lock, or has the word spin in it. Note, if the self tests are enabled, they may interfere with the filtering set by the command lines. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
