2015-01-14perf: Avoid horrible stack usagePeter Zijlstra (Intel)
Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf related callbacks have massive stack bloat. The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled it with minimal bits required for operation. Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available, making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste. This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static per-cpu storage instead of on-stack. Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler. We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs() like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs element to use). One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs pointer available and do not need another.

I'm pushing this in now. This will allow Thomas to debug his irq work for 3.20. This adds two new features: 1) Allow traceopoints to be enabled right after mm_init(). By passing in the trace_event= kernel command line parameter, tracepoints can be enabled at boot up. For debugging things like the initialization of interrupts, it is needed to have tracepoints enabled very early. People have asked about this before and this has been on my todo list. As it can be helpful for Thomas to debug his upcoming 3.20 IRQ work, I'm pushing this now. This way he can add tracepoints into the IRQ set up and have users enable them when things go wrong. 2) Have the tracepoints printed via printk() (the console) when they are triggered. If the irq code locks up or reboots the box, having the tracepoint output go into the kernel ring buffer is useless for debugging. But being able to add the tp_printk kernel command line option along with the trace_event= option will have these tracepoints printed as they occur, and that can be really useful for debugging early lock up or reboot problems. This code is not that intrusive and it passed all my tests. Thomas tried them out too and it works for his needs.

2014-12-15tracing: Move enabling tracepoints to just after rcu_init()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Enabling tracepoints at boot up can be very useful. The tracepoint can be initialized right after RCU has been. There's no need to wait for the early_initcall() to be called. That's too late for some things that can use tracepoints for debugging. Move the logic to enable tracepoints out of the initcalls and into init/main.c to right after rcu_init(). This also allows trace_printk() to be used early too.

2013-12-21tracing: Add and use generic set_trigger_filter() implementationTom Zanussi
Add a generic event_command.set_trigger_filter() op implementation and have the current set of trigger commands use it - this essentially gives them all support for filters. Syntactically, filters are supported by adding 'if <filter>' just after the command, in which case only events matching the filter will invoke the trigger. For example, to add a filter to an enable/disable_event command: echo 'enable_event:system:event if common_pid == 999' > \ .../othersys/otherevent/trigger The above command will only enable the system:event event if the common_pid field in the othersys:otherevent event is 999. As another example, to add a filter to a stacktrace command: echo 'stacktrace if common_pid == 999' > \ .../somesys/someevent/trigger The above command will only trigger a stacktrace if the common_pid field in the event is 999. The filter syntax is the same as that described in the 'Event filtering' section of Documentation/trace/events.txt. Because triggers can now use filters, the trigger-invoking logic needs to be moved in those cases - e.g. for ftrace_raw_event_calls, if a trigger has a filter associated with it, the trigger invocation now needs to happen after the { assign; } part of the call, in order for the trigger condition to be tested. There's still a SOFT_DISABLED-only check at the top of e.g. the ftrace_raw_events function, so when an event is soft disabled but not because of the presence of a trigger, the original SOFT_DISABLED behavior remains unchanged. There's also a bit of trickiness in that some triggers need to avoid being invoked while an event is currently in the process of being logged, since the trigger may itself log data into the trace buffer. Thus we make sure the current event is committed before invoking those triggers. To do that, we split the trigger invocation in two - the first part (event_triggers_call()) checks the filter using the current trace record; if a command has the post_trigger flag set, it sets a bit for itself in the return value, otherwise it directly invoks the trigger. Once all commands have been either invoked or set their return flag, event_triggers_call() returns. The current record is then either committed or discarded; if any commands have deferred their triggers, those commands are finally invoked following the close of the current event by event_triggers_post_call(). To simplify the above and make it more efficient, the TRIGGER_COND bit is introduced, which is set only if a soft-disabled trigger needs to use the log record for filter testing or needs to wait until the current log record is closed. The syscall event invocation code is also changed in analogous ways. Because event triggers need to be able to create and free filters, this also adds a couple external wrappers for the existing create_filter and free_filter functions, which are too generic to be made extern functions themselves.

2013-12-20tracing: Add basic event trigger frameworkTom Zanussi
Add a 'trigger' file for each trace event, enabling 'trace event triggers' to be set for trace events. 'trace event triggers' are patterned after the existing 'ftrace function triggers' implementation except that triggers are written to per-event 'trigger' files instead of to a single file such as the 'set_ftrace_filter' used for ftrace function triggers. The implementation is meant to be entirely separate from ftrace function triggers, in order to keep the respective implementations relatively simple and to allow them to diverge. The event trigger functionality is built on top of SOFT_DISABLE functionality. It adds a TRIGGER_MODE bit to the ftrace_event_file flags which is checked when any trace event fires. Triggers set for a particular event need to be checked regardless of whether that event is actually enabled or not - getting an event to fire even if it's not enabled is what's already implemented by SOFT_DISABLE mode, so trigger mode directly reuses that. Event trigger essentially inherit the soft disable logic in __ftrace_event_enable_disable() while adding a bit of logic and trigger reference counting via tm_ref on top of that in a new trace_event_trigger_enable_disable() function. Because the base __ftrace_event_enable_disable() code now needs to be invoked from outside trace_events.c, a wrapper is also added for those usages. The triggers for an event are actually invoked via a new function, event_triggers_call(), and code is also added to invoke them for ftrace_raw_event calls as well as syscall events. The main part of the patch creates a new trace_events_trigger.c file to contain the trace event triggers implementation. The standard open, read, and release file operations are implemented here. The open() implementation sets up for the various open modes of the 'trigger' file. It creates and attaches the trigger iterator and sets up the command parser. If opened for reading set up the trigger seq_ops. The read() implementation parses the event trigger written to the 'trigger' file, looks up the trigger command, and passes it along to that event_command's func() implementation for command-specific processing. The release() implementation does whatever cleanup is needed to release the 'trigger' file, like releasing the parser and trigger iterator, etc. A couple of functions for event command registration and unregistration are added, along with a list to add them to and a mutex to protect them, as well as an (initially empty) registration function to add the set of commands that will be added by future commits, and call to it from the trace event initialization code. also added are a couple trigger-specific data structures needed for these implementations such as a trigger iterator and a struct for trigger-specific data. A couple structs consisting mostly of function meant to be implemented in command-specific ways, event_command and event_trigger_ops, are used by the generic event trigger command implementations. They're being put into trace.h alongside the other trace_event data structures and functions, in the expectation that they'll be needed in several trace_event-related files such as trace_events_trigger.c and trace_events.c. The event_command.func() function is meant to be called by the trigger parsing code in order to add a trigger instance to the corresponding event. It essentially coordinates adding a live trigger instance to the event, and arming the triggering the event. Every event_command func() implementation essentially does the same thing for any command: - choose ops - use the value of param to choose either a number or count version of event_trigger_ops specific to the command - do the register or unregister of those ops - associate a filter, if specified, with the triggering event The reg() and unreg() ops allow command-specific implementations for event_trigger_op registration and unregistration, and the get_trigger_ops() op allows command-specific event_trigger_ops selection to be parameterized. When a trigger instance is added, the reg() op essentially adds that trigger to the triggering event and arms it, while unreg() does the opposite. The set_filter() function is used to associate a filter with the trigger - if the command doesn't specify a set_filter() implementation, the command will ignore filters. Each command has an associated trigger_type, which serves double duty, both as a unique identifier for the command as well as a value that can be used for setting a trigger mode bit during trigger invocation. The signature of func() adds a pointer to the event_command struct, used to invoke those functions, along with a command_data param that can be passed to the reg/unreg functions. This allows func() implementations to use command-specific blobs and supports code re-use. The event_trigger_ops.func() command corrsponds to the trigger 'probe' function that gets called when the triggering event is actually invoked. The other functions are used to list the trigger when needed, along with a couple mundane book-keeping functions. This also moves event_file_data() into trace.h so it can be used outside of trace_events.c.

2013-12-05tracing: Only run synchronize_sched() at instance deletion timeSteven Rostedt
It has been reported that boot up with FTRACE_SELFTEST enabled can take a very long time. There can be stalls of over a minute. This was tracked down to the synchronize_sched() called when a system call event is disabled. As the self tests enable and disable thousands of events, this makes the synchronize_sched() get called thousands of times. The synchornize_sched() was added with d562aff93bfb53 "tracing: Add support for SOFT_DISABLE to syscall events" which caused this regression (added in 3.13-rc1). The synchronize_sched() is to protect against the events being accessed when a tracer instance is being deleted. When an instance is being deleted all the events associated to it are unregistered. The synchronize_sched() makes sure that no more users are running when it finishes. Instead of calling synchronize_sched() for all syscall events, we only need to call it once, after the events are unregistered and before the instance is deleted. The event_mutex is held during this action to prevent new users from enabling events.

Add an array of ftrace_event_file pointers indexed by syscall number to the trace array and remove the existing enabled bitmaps, which as a result are now redundant. The ftrace_event_file structs in turn contain the soft disable flags we need for per-syscall soft disable accounting.

2013-11-05tracing: Update event filters for multibufferTom Zanussi
The trace event filters are still tied to event calls rather than event files, which means you don't get what you'd expect when using filters in the multibuffer case: Before: # echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 8192 # mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1 # echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 2048 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 2048 Setting the filter in tracing/instances/test1/events shouldn't affect the same event in tracing/events as it does above. After: # echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 8192 # mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1 # echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 8192 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 2048 We'd like to just move the filter directly from ftrace_event_call to ftrace_event_file, but there are a couple cases that don't yet have multibuffer support and therefore have to continue using the current event_call-based filters. For those cases, a new USE_CALL_FILTER bit is added to the event_call flags, whose main purpose is to keep the old behavior for those cases until they can be updated with multibuffer support; at that point, the USE_CALL_FILTER flag (and the new associated call_filter_check_discard() function) can go away. The multibuffer support also made filter_current_check_discard() redundant, so this change removes that function as well and replaces it with filter_check_discard() (or call_filter_check_discard() as appropriate).

2013-03-15tracing: Consolidate max_tr into main trace_array structureSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Currently, the way the latency tracers and snapshot feature works is to have a separate trace_array called "max_tr" that holds the snapshot buffer. For latency tracers, this snapshot buffer is used to swap the running buffer with this buffer to save the current max latency. The only items needed for the max_tr is really just a copy of the buffer itself, the per_cpu data pointers, the time_start timestamp that states when the max latency was triggered, and the cpu that the max latency was triggered on. All other fields in trace_array are unused by the max_tr, making the max_tr mostly bloat. This change removes the max_tr completely, and adds a new structure called trace_buffer, that holds the buffer pointer, the per_cpu data pointers, the time_start timestamp, and the cpu where the latency occurred. The trace_array, now has two trace_buffers, one for the normal trace and one for the max trace or snapshot. By doing this, not only do we remove the bloat from the max_trace but the instances of traces can now use their own snapshot feature and not have just the top level global_trace have the snapshot feature and latency tracers for itself.

2013-03-15tracing: Make syscall events suitable for multiple buffersSteven Rostedt
Currently the syscall events record into the global buffer. But if multiple buffers are in place, then we need to have syscall events record in the proper buffers. By adding descriptors to pass to the syscall event functions, the syscall events can now record into the buffers that have been assigned to them (one event may be applied to mulitple buffers). This will allow tracing high volume syscalls along with seldom occurring syscalls without losing the seldom syscall events. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2013-02-12tracing/syscalls: Allow archs to ignore tracing compat syscallsSteven Rostedt
The tracing of ia32 compat system calls has been a bit of a pain as they use different system call numbers than the 64bit equivalents. I wrote a simple 'lls' program that lists files. I compiled it as a i686 ELF binary and ran it under a x86_64 box.

The calls are obviously incorrect, and confusing. Other efforts have been made to fix this: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/26/367 But the real solution is to rewrite the syscall internals and come up with a fixed solution. One that doesn't require all the kluge that the current solution has. Thus for now, instead of outputting incorrect data, simply ignore them. With this patch the changes now have: #> grep lls /debug/tracing/trace #> Compat system calls simply are not traced. If users need compat syscalls, then they should just use the raw syscall tracepoints. For an architecture to make their compat syscalls ignored, it must define ARCH_TRACE_IGNORE_COMPAT_SYSCALLS (done in asm/ftrace.h) and also define an arch_trace_is_compat_syscall() function that will return true if the current task should ignore tracing the syscall. I want to stress that this change does not affect actual syscalls in any way, shape or form. It is only used within the tracing system and doesn't interfere with the syscall logic at all. The changes are consolidated nicely into trace_syscalls.c and asm/ftrace.h. I had to make one small modification to asm/thread_info.h and that was to remove the include of asm/ftrace.h. As asm/ftrace.h required the current_thread_info() it was causing include hell. That include was added back in 2008 when the function graph tracer was added: commit caf4b323 "tracing, x86: add low level support for ftrace return tracing" It does not need to be included there.

2012-07-31perf/trace: Add ability to set a target task for eventsAndrew Vagin
A few events are interesting not only for a current task. For example, sched_stat_* events are interesting for a task which wakes up. For this reason, it will be good if such events will be delivered to a target task too. Now a target task can be set by using __perf_task(). The original idea and a draft patch belongs to Peter Zijlstra. I need these events for profiling sleep times. sched_switch is used for getting callchains and sched_stat_* is used for getting time periods. These events are combined in user space, then it can be analyzed by perf tools.

2011-02-03tracing: Replace syscall_meta_data struct array with pointer arraySteven Rostedt
Currently the syscall_meta structures for the syscall tracepoints are placed in the __syscall_metadata section, and at link time, the linker makes one large array of all these syscall metadata structures. On boot up, this array is read (much like the initcall sections) and the syscall data is processed. The problem is that there is no guarantee that gcc will place complex structures nicely together in an array format. Two structures in the same file may be placed awkwardly, because gcc has no clue that they are suppose to be in an array. A hack was used previous to force the alignment to 4, to pack the structures together. But this caused alignment issues with other architectures (sparc). Instead of packing the structures into an array, the structures' addresses are now put into the __syscall_metadata section. As pointers are always the natural alignment, gcc should always pack them tightly together (otherwise initcall, extable, etc would also fail). By having the pointers to the structures in the section, we can still iterate the trace_events without causing unnecessary alignment problems with other architectures, or depending on the current behaviour of gcc that will likely change in the future just to tick us kernel developers off a little more. The __syscall_metadata section is also moved into the .init.data section as it is now only needed at boot up. Suggested-by: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: David S.

2010-05-14tracing: Remove duplicate id information in event structureSteven Rostedt
Now that the trace_event structure is embedded in the ftrace_event_call structure, there is no need for the ftrace_event_call id field. The id field is the same as the trace_event type field. Removing the id and re-arranging the structure brings down the tracepoint footprint by another 5K. text data bss dec hex filename 4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig 4895024 1023812 861512 6780348 6775bc vmlinux.print 4894944 1018052 861512 6774508 675eec vmlinux.id Acked-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Acked-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2010-05-14tracing: Move print functions into event classSteven Rostedt
Currently, every event has its own trace_event structure. This is fine since the structure is needed anyway. But the print function structure (trace_event_functions) is now separate. Since the output of the trace event is done by the class (with the exception of events defined by DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT), it makes sense to have the class define the print functions that all events in the class can use. This makes a bigger deal with the syscall events since all syscall events use the same class. The savings here is another 30K. text data bss dec hex filename 4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig 4900382 1048964 861512 6810858 67ecea vmlinux.init 4900446 1049028 861512 6810986 67ed6a vmlinux.preprint 4895024 1023812 861512 6780348 6775bc vmlinux.print To accomplish this, and to let the class know what event is being printed, the event structure is embedded in the ftrace_event_call structure. This should not be an issues since the event structure was created for each event anyway.

2010-05-14tracing: Allow events to share their print functionsSteven Rostedt
Multiple events may use the same method to print their data. Instead of having all events have a pointer to their print funtions, the trace_event structure now points to a trace_event_functions structure that will hold the way to print ouf the event. The event itself is now passed to the print function to let the print function know what kind of event it should print. This opens the door to consolidating the way several events print their output. text data bss dec hex filename 4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig 4900382 1048964 861512 6810858 67ecea vmlinux.init 4900446 1049028 861512 6810986 67ed6a vmlinux.preprint This change slightly increases the size but is needed for the next change. v3: Fix the branch tracer events to handle this change. v2: Fix the new function graph tracer event calls to handle this change.
