2015-11-25tracing: Update cond flag when enabling or disabling a triggerTom Zanussi
When a trigger is enabled, the cond flag should be set beforehand, otherwise a trigger that's expecting to process a trace record (e.g. one with post_trigger set) could be invoked without one. Likewise a trigger's cond flag should be reset after it's disabled, not before.

2015-11-25ring-buffer: Process commits whenever moving to a new page.Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)
When crossing over to a new page, commit the current work. This will allow readers to get data with less latency, and also simplifies the work to get timestamps working for interrupted events. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2015-11-24ring-buffer: Remove redundant update of page timestampSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The first commit of a buffer page updates the timestamp of that page. No need to have the update to the next page add the timestamp too. It will only be replaced by the first commit on that page anyway. Only update to a page if it contains an event. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2015-11-24ring-buffer: Use READ_ONCE() for most tail_page accessSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
As cpu_buffer->tail_page may be modified by interrupts at almost any time, the flow of logic is very important. Do not let gcc get smart with re-reading cpu_buffer->tail_page by adding READ_ONCE() around most of its accesses. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2015-11-24ring-buffer: Put back the length if crossed page with add_timestampSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Commit fcc742eaad7c "ring-buffer: Add event descriptor to simplify passing data" added a descriptor that holds various data instead of passing around several variables through parameters. The problem was that one of the parameters was modified in a function and the code was designed not to have an effect on that modified parameter. Now that the parameter is a descriptor and any modifications to it are non-volatile, the size of the data could be unnecessarily expanded. Remove the extra space added if a timestamp was added and the event went across the page.

2015-11-24ring-buffer: Update read stamp with first real commit on pageSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Do not update the read stamp after swapping out the reader page from the write buffer. If the reader page is swapped out of the buffer before an event is written to it, then the read_stamp may get an out of date timestamp, as the page timestamp is updated on the first commit to that page. rb_get_reader_page() only returns a page if it has an event on it, otherwise it will return NULL. At that point, check if the page being returned has events and has not been read yet. Then at that point update the read_stamp to match the time stamp of the reader page.

2015-11-10bpf_trace: Make dependent on PERF_EVENTSSteven Rostedt
Arnd Bergmann reported: In my ARM randconfig tests, I'm getting a build error for newly added code in bpf_perf_event_read and bpf_perf_event_output whenever CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS is disabled: kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c: In function 'bpf_perf_event_read': kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:203:11: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'oncpu' if (event->oncpu != smp_processor_id() || ^ kernel/trace/bpf_trace.c:204:11: error: 'struct perf_event' has no member named 'pmu' event->pmu->count) This can happen when UPROBE_EVENT is enabled but KPROBE_EVENT is disabled. I'm not sure if that is a configuration we care about, otherwise we could prevent this case from occuring by adding Kconfig dependencies. Looking at this further, it's really that UPROBE_EVENT enables PERF_EVENTS. By just having BPF_EVENTS depend on PERF_EVENTS, then all is fine.

2015-11-07tracing: Remove unused ftrace_cpu_disabled per cpu variableDmitry Safonov
Since the ring buffer is lockless, there is no need to disable ftrace on CPU. And no one doing so: after commit 68179686ac67cb ("tracing: Remove ftrace_disable/enable_cpu()") ftrace_cpu_disabled stays the same after initialization, nothing changes it. ftrace_cpu_disabled shouldn't be used by any external module since it disables only function and graph_function tracers but not any other tracer.

2015-11-06tracing: Make tracing work when debugfs is not configured inJiaxing Wang
Currently tracing_init_dentry() returns -ENODEV when debugfs is not configured in, which causes tracefs not populated with tracing files and directories, so we will get an empty directory even after we manually mount tracefs. We can make tracing_init_dentry() return NULL if debugfs is not configured in and can manually mount tracefs. But return -ENODEV if debugfs is configured in but not initialized or failed to create automount point as that would break backward compatibility with older tools.

2015-11-03tracing: Put back comma for empty fields in boot string parsingSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Both early_enable_events() and apply_trace_boot_options() parse a boot string that may get parsed later on. They both use strsep() which converts a comma into a nul character. To still allow the boot string to be parsed again the same way, the nul character gets converted back to a comma after the token is processed. The problem is that these two functions check for an empty parameter (two commas in a row ",,"), and continue the loop if the parameter is empty, but fails to place the comma back. In this case, the second parsing will end at this blank field, and not process fields afterward. In most cases, users should not have an empty field, but if its going to be checked, the code might as well be correct. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2015-11-03tracing: Apply tracer specific options from kernel command line.Jiaxing Wang
Currently, the trace_options parameter is only applied in tracer_alloc_buffers() when global_trace.current_trace is nop_trace, so a tracer specific option will not be applied even when the specific tracer is also enabled from kernel command line. For example, the 'func_stack_trace' option can't be enabled with the following kernel parameter: ftrace=function ftrace_filter=kfree trace_options=func_stack_trace We can enable tracer specific options by simply apply the options again if the specific tracer is also supplied from command line and started in register_tracer(). To make trace_boot_options_buf can be parsed again, a comma and a space is put back if they were replaced by strsep and strstrip respectively. Also make register_tracer() be __init to access the __init data, and in fact register_tracer is only called from __init code.

2015-11-03ring_buffer: Fix more races when terminating the producer in the benchmarkPetr Mladek
The commit b44754d8262d3aab8 ("ring_buffer: Allow to exit the ring buffer benchmark immediately") added a hack into ring_buffer_producer() that set @kill_test when kthread_should_stop() returned true. It improved the situation a lot. It stopped the kthread in most cases because the producer spent most of the time in the patched while cycle. But there are still few possible races when kthread_should_stop() is set outside of the cycle. Then we do not set @kill_test and some other checks pass. This patch adds a better fix. It renames @test_kill/TEST_KILL() into a better descriptive @test_error/TEST_ERROR(). Also it introduces break_test() function that checks for both @test_error and kthread_should_stop(). The new function is used in the producer when the check for @test_error is not enough. It is not used in the consumer because its state is manipulated by the producer via the "reader_finish" variable. Also we add a missing check into ring_buffer_producer_thread() between setting TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and calling schedule_timeout(). Otherwise, we might miss a wakeup from kthread_stop().

2015-11-03ring_buffer: Do no not complete benchmark reader too earlyPetr Mladek
It seems that complete(&read_done) might be called too early in some situations. 1st scenario: ------------- CPU0 CPU1 ring_buffer_producer_thread() wake_up_process(consumer); wait_for_completion(&read_start); ring_buffer_consumer_thread() complete(&read_start); ring_buffer_producer() # producing data in # the do-while cycle ring_buffer_consumer(); # reading data # got error # set kill_test = 1; set_current_state( TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); if (reader_finish) # false schedule(); # producer still in the middle of # do-while cycle if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval)) wake_up_process(consumer); # spurious wakeup while (!reader_finish && !kill_test) # leaving because # kill_test == 1 reader_finish = 0; complete(&read_done); 1st BANG: We might access uninitialized "read_done" if this is the the first round. # producer finally leaving # the do-while cycle because kill_test == 1; if (consumer) { reader_finish = 1; wake_up_process(consumer); wait_for_completion(&read_done); 2nd BANG: This will never complete because consumer already did the completion. 2nd scenario: ------------- CPU0 CPU1 ring_buffer_producer_thread() wake_up_process(consumer); wait_for_completion(&read_start); ring_buffer_consumer_thread() complete(&read_start); ring_buffer_producer() # CPU3 removes the module <--- difference from # and stops producer <--- the 1st scenario if (kthread_should_stop()) kill_test = 1; ring_buffer_consumer(); while (!reader_finish && !kill_test) # kill_test == 1 => we never go # into the top level while() reader_finish = 0; complete(&read_done); # producer still in the middle of # do-while cycle if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval)) wake_up_process(consumer); # spurious wakeup while (!reader_finish && !kill_test) # leaving because kill_test == 1 reader_finish = 0; complete(&read_done); BANG: We are in the same "bang" situations as in the 1st scenario. Root of the problem: -------------------- ring_buffer_consumer() must complete "read_done" only when "reader_finish" variable is set. It must not be skipped due to other conditions. Note that we still must keep the check for "reader_finish" in a loop because there might be spurious wakeups as described in the above scenarios. Solution: ---------- The top level cycle in ring_buffer_consumer() will finish only when "reader_finish" is set. The data will be read in "while-do" cycle so that they are not read after an error (kill_test == 1) or a spurious wake up. In addition, "reader_finish" is manipulated by the producer thread. Therefore we add READ_ONCE() to make sure that the fresh value is read in each cycle. Also we add the corresponding barrier to synchronize the sleep check. Next we set the state back to TASK_RUNNING for the situation where we did not sleep. Just from paranoid reasons, we initialize both completions statically. This is safer, in case there are other races that we are unaware of. As a side effect we could remove the memory barrier from ring_buffer_producer_thread(). IMHO, this was the reason for the barrier. ring_buffer_reset() uses spin locks that should provide the needed memory barrier for using the buffer.

2015-11-03tracing: Allow arch-specific stack tracerAKASHI Takahiro
A stack frame may be used in a different way depending on cpu architecture. Thus it is not always appropriate to slurp the stack contents, as current check_stack() does, in order to calcurate a stack index (height) at a given function call. At least not on arm64. In addition, there is a possibility that we will mistakenly detect a stale stack frame which has not been overwritten. This patch makes check_stack() a weak function so as to later implement arch-specific version.

2015-11-02tracing: Only benchmark the time tracepoints take if tracing is onChunyan Zhang
There's no need to record the time tracepoints take when tracing is off. This is because: 1) We cannot see these records since ring_buffer record is off at that moment. 2) If tracing is off and benchmark tracepoint is enabled, the time tracepoint takes is fewer than the same situation when tracing is on, since the tracepoints need to be wrote into ring_buffer, it would take more time. If turn on tracing at this moment, the average and standard deviation cannot exactly present the time that tracepoints take to write data into ring_buffer.

2015-10-30blktrace: re-write setting q->blk_traceDavidlohr Bueso
This is really about simplifying the double xchg patterns into a single cmpxchg, with the same logic. Other than the immediate cleanup, there are some subtleties this change deals with: (i) While the load of the old bt is fully ordered wrt everything, ie: old_bt = xchg(&q->blk_trace, bt); [barrier] if (old_bt) (void) xchg(&q->blk_trace, old_bt); [barrier] blk_trace could still be changed between the xchg and the old_bt load. Note that this description is merely theoretical and afaict very small, but doing everything in a single context with cmpxchg closes this potential race. (ii) Ordering guarantees are obviously kept with cmpxchg. (iii) Gets rid of the hacky-by-nature (void)xchg pattern.

2015-10-25tracing: Implement event pid filteringSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Add the necessary hooks to use the pids loaded in set_event_pid to filter all the events enabled in the tracing instance that match the pids listed. Two probes are added to both sched_switch and sched_wakeup tracepoints to be called before other probes are called and after the other probes are called. The first is used to set the necessary flags to let the probes know to test if they should be traced or not. The sched_switch pre probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if neither the previous or next task has a matching pid. The sched_switch probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if the next task does not match the matching pid. The pre probe allows for probes tracing sched_switch to be traced if necessary. The sched_wakeup pre probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if neither the current task nor the wakee task has a matching pid. The sched_wakeup post probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if the current task does not have a matching pid. Cc: "Paul E.

2015-10-22bpf: introduce bpf_perf_event_output() helperAlexei Starovoitov
This helper is used to send raw data from eBPF program into special PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE/PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT perf_event. User space needs to perf_event_open() it (either for one or all cpus) and store FD into perf_event_array (similar to bpf_perf_event_read() helper) before eBPF program can send data into it. Today the programs triggered by kprobe collect the data and either store it into the maps or print it via bpf_trace_printk() where latter is the debug facility and not suitable to stream the data. This new helper replaces such bpf_trace_printk() usage and allows programs to have dedicated channel into user space for post-processing of the raw data collected.

The code in stack tracer should not be executed within an NMI as it grabs spinlocks and stack tracing an NMI gives the possibility of causing a deadlock. Although this is safe on x86_64, because it does not perform stack traces when the task struct stack is not in use (interrupts and NMIs), it may be an issue for NMIs on i386 and other archs that use the same stack as the NMI.
