2018-08-10uprobes: Use synchronize_rcu() not synchronize_sched()Steven Rostedt (VMware)
While debugging another bug, I was looking at all the synchronize*() functions being used in kernel/trace, and noticed that trace_uprobes was using synchronize_sched(), with a comment to synchronize with {u,ret}_probe_trace_func(). When looking at those functions, the data is protected with "rcu_read_lock()" and not with "rcu_read_lock_sched()". This is using the wrong synchronize_*() function.

2018-05-24bpf: introduce bpf subcommand BPF_TASK_FD_QUERYYonghong Song
Currently, suppose a userspace application has loaded a bpf program and attached it to a tracepoint/kprobe/uprobe, and a bpf introspection tool, e.g., bpftool, wants to show which bpf program is attached to which tracepoint/kprobe/uprobe. Such attachment information will be really useful to understand the overall bpf deployment in the system. There is a name field (16 bytes) for each program, which could be used to encode the attachment point. There are some drawbacks for this approaches. First, bpftool user (e.g., an admin) may not really understand the association between the name and the attachment point. Second, if one program is attached to multiple places, encoding a proper name which can imply all these attachments becomes difficult. This patch introduces a new bpf subcommand BPF_TASK_FD_QUERY. Given a pid and fd, if the <pid, fd> is associated with a tracepoint/kprobe/uprobe perf event, BPF_TASK_FD_QUERY will return . prog_id . tracepoint name, or . k[ret]probe funcname + offset or kernel addr, or . u[ret]probe filename + offset to the userspace. The user can use "bpftool prog" to find more information about bpf program itself with prog_id.

2018-04-26tracing: Fix bad use of igrab in trace_uprobe.cSong Liu
As Miklos reported and suggested: This pattern repeats two times in trace_uprobe.c and in kernel/events/core.c as well: ret = kern_path(filename, LOOKUP_FOLLOW, &path); if (ret) goto fail_address_parse; inode = igrab(d_inode(path.dentry)); path_put(&path); And it's wrong. You can only hold a reference to the inode if you have an active ref to the superblock as well (which is normally through path.mnt) or holding s_umount. This way unmounting the containing filesystem while the tracepoint is active will give you the "VFS: Busy inodes after unmount..." message and a crash when the inode is finally put. Solution: store path instead of inode. This patch fixes two instances in trace_uprobe.c. struct path is added to struct trace_uprobe to keep the inode and containing mount point referenced.

2018-04-11tracing/uprobe: Add support for overlayfsHoward McLauchlan
uprobes cannot successfully attach to binaries located in a directory mounted with overlayfs. To verify, create directories for mounting overlayfs (upper,lower,work,merge), move some binary into merge/ and use readelf to obtain some known instruction of the binary. I used /bin/true and the entry instruction(0x13b0): $ mount -t overlay overlay -o lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merge $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing $ echo 'p:true_entry PATH_TO_MERGE/merge/true:0x13b0' > uprobe_events $ echo 1 > events/uprobes/true_entry/enable This returns 'bash: echo: write error: Input/output error' and dmesg tells us 'event trace: Could not enable event true_entry' This change makes create_trace_uprobe() look for the real inode of a dentry. In the case of normal filesystems, this simplifies to just returning the inode. In the case of overlayfs(and similar fs) we will obtain the underlying dentry and corresponding inode, upon which uprobes can successfully register. Running the example above with the patch applied, we can see that the uprobe is enabled and will output to trace as expected.

2017-10-25bpf: permit multiple bpf attachments for a single perf eventYonghong Song
This patch enables multiple bpf attachments for a kprobe/uprobe/tracepoint single trace event. Each trace_event keeps a list of attached perf events. When an event happens, all attached bpf programs will be executed based on the order of attachment. A global bpf_event_mutex lock is introduced to protect prog_array attaching and detaching. An alternative will be introduce a mutex lock in every trace_event_call structure, but it takes a lot of extra memory. So a global bpf_event_mutex lock is a good compromise. The bpf prog detachment involves allocation of memory. If the allocation fails, a dummy do-nothing program will replace to-be-detached program in-place.

traceprobe_probes_write() and traceprobe_command() actually contain nothing that ties them to kprobes - the code is generically useful for similar types of parsing elsewhere, so separate it out and move it to trace.c/trace.h.

2017-08-29perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:functionZhou Chengming
When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug which can be reproduced by: perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 & perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf script ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns We can see that all the function traces are doubled. The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu, the traces of them will be doubled. So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event, only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

2017-01-17uprobe: Find last occurrence of ':' when parsing uprobe PATH:OFFSETKenny Yu
Previously, `create_trace_uprobe` found the *first* occurence of the ':' character when parsing `PATH:OFFSET` for a uprobe. However, if the path contains a ':' character, then the function would parse the path incorrectly. Even worse, if the path does not exist, the subsequent call to `kern_path()` would set `ret` to `ENOENT`, leading to very cryptic errno values in user space. The fix is to find the *last* occurence of ':'. How to repro:: The write fails with "No such file or directory", suggesting incorrectly that the `uprobe_events` file does not exist. $ mkdir testing && cd testing $ cp /bin/bash . $ cp /bin/bash ./bash:with:colon $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x6" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this works $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x6" >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this doesn't -bash: echo: write error: No such file or directory With the patch: $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x6" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this still works $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x6" >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this works now too! $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x0000000000000006 p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x0000000000000006 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170113165834.4081016-1-kennyyu@fb.com Signed-off-by: Kenny Yu <kennyyu@fb.com> Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

While splitting use temp variable 'rctx' instead of '*rctx' to avoid unnecessary loads done by the compiler due to -fno-strict-aliasing Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

By copying BPF related operation to uprobe processing path, this patch allow users attach BPF programs to uprobes like what they are already doing on kprobes. After this patch, users are allowed to use PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_BPF on a uprobe perf event. Which make it possible to profile user space programs and kernel events together using BPF. Because of this patch, CONFIG_BPF_EVENTS should be selected by CONFIG_UPROBE_EVENT to ensure trace_call_bpf() is compiled even if KPROBE_EVENT is not set.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar: "Core kernel changes: - One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed by the kernel) to kprobes. This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively. (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might allow unprivileged use as well.) (Alexei Starovoitov) - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock sources for event timestamps traced via perf. This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated events with external events that were measured with different clocks: - cluster wide profiling - for system wide tracing with user-space events, - JIT profiling events etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al. (Peter Zijlstra) Hardware enablement kernel changes: - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs. The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous. This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result. A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU. More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well - will probably be ready by 4.2. (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra) - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads. These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged as a cgroup extension.) (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P Waskiewicz Jr) - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option: perf record --call-graph lbr perf report or: perf top --call-graph lbr This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf based unwinding, but has some limitations: - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. (Yan, Zheng) - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and event table fixes for earlier models. (Andi Kleen) - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and is transparent. (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian) The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to the tooling changes outlined above: User visible changes affecting all tools: - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa) - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song) - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa) - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song) - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) User visible changes in individual tools: 'perf data': New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa, Sebastian Siewior) 'perf diff': Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern) 'perf list': Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song) Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song) 'perf kmem': Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa) Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim) Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim) Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim) 'perf probe': Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu) Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu) Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu) 'perf record': Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra) Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen) 'perf sched': Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song) 'perf report' and 'perf top': Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern) Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) 'perf stat': Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K.

Lots of features have been added since the sample code was made, and these features are mostly unknown. Developers have been making their own hacks to do things that are already available. o Performance improvements. Most notably, I found a performance bug where a waiter that is waiting for a full page from the ring buffer will see that a full page is not available, and go to sleep. The sched event caused by it going to sleep would cause it to wake up again. It would see that there was still not a full page, and go back to sleep again, and that would wake it up again, until finally it would see a full page. This change has been marked for stable.

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.

But then we should kill the same code in uprobe_perf_func() and unify the TRACE/PROFILE filtering (we need to do this anyway to mix perf/ftrace).

2014-06-30tracing/uprobes: Revert "Support mix of ftrace and perf"Oleg Nesterov
This reverts commit 43fe98913c9f67e3b523615ee3316f9520a623e0. This patch is very wrong. Firstly, this change leads to unbalanced uprobe_unregister(). Just for example, # perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall # echo 1 >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe_libc/enable # perf record -e probe_libc:syscall whatever after that uprobe is dead (unregistered) but the user of ftrace/perf can't know this, and it looks as if nobody hits this probe. This would be easy to fix, but there are other reasons why it is not simple to mix ftrace and perf. If nothing else, they can't share the same ->consumer.filter. This is fixable too, but probably we need to fix the poorly designed uprobe_register() interface first. At least "register" and "apply" should be clearly separated.
