* ring-buffer: add api to allow a tracer to change clock sourceSteven Rostedt2009-03-173-36/+57
| | | | | | | This patch adds a new function called ring_buffer_set_clock that allows a tracer to assign its own clock source to the buffer. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
* tracing: stop comm recording on tracing offSteven Rostedt2009-03-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix for losing comms in trace The command lines of tasks are cached at sched switch to not need to record them at every trace point. Disabling the tracing on stops the recording of traces, but does not stop the caching of command lines. When the tracing is off the cache may overflow and cause the tracing to show incorrect tasks matching the PIDs. This patch disables prevents updates to the comm cache when the ring buffer is off.

* tracing: protect reader of cmdline outputSteven Rostedt2009-03-165-26/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix to one cause of incorrect comm outputs in trace The spinlock only protected the creation of a comm <=> pid pair. But it was possible that a reader could look up a pid, and get the wrong comm because it had no locking. This also required changing trace_find_cmdline to copy the comm cache and not just send back a pointer to it. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
* tracing/ftrace: fix the check on nopped sitesFrederic Weisbecker2009-03-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix a dynamic tracing failure Recently, the function and function graph tracers failed to use dynamic tracing after the following commit: fa9d13cf135efbd454453a53b6299976bea245a9 (ftrace: don't try to __ftrace_replace_code on !FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED rec) The patch is right except a mistake on the check for the FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED flag. The code patching is aborted in case of successfully nopped sites. What we want is the opposite: ignore the callsites that haven't been nopped.

* kallsyms, tracing: output more proper symbol nameLai Jiangshan2009-03-141-0/+57
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: bugfix, output more reliable symbol lookup result Debug tools(dump_stack(), ftrace...) are like to print out symbols. But it is always print out the first aliased symbol.(Aliased symbols are symbols with the same address), and the first aliased symbol is sometime not proper. # echo function_graph > current_tracer # cat trace ...... 1) 1.923 us | select_nohz_load_balancer(); 1) + 76.692 us | } 1) | default_idle() { 1) ==========> | __irqentry_text_start() { 1) 0.000 us | native_apic_mem_write(); 1) | irq_enter() { 1) 0.000 us | idle_cpu(); 1) | tick_check_idle() { 1) 0.000 us | tick_check_oneshot_broadcast(); 1) | tick_nohz_stop_idle() { ...... It's very embarrassing, it ouputs "__irqentry_text_start()", actually, it should output "smp_apic_timer_interrupt()". (these two symbol are the same address, but "__irqentry_text_start" is deemed to the first aliased symbol by scripts/kallsyms) This patch puts symbols like "__irqentry_text_start" to the second aliased symbols. And a more proper symbol name becomes the first. Aliased symbols mostly come from linker script. The solution is guessing "is this symbol defined in linker script", the symbols defined in linker script will not become the first aliased symbol. And if symbols are found to be equal in this "linker script provided" criteria, symbols are sorted by the number of prefix underscores.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The binary_buffers directory in /debugfs/tracing held the files to read the trace buffers in a binary format. This held one file per CPU buffer. But we also have a per_cpu directory that holds a way to read the pretty-print formats. This patch moves the binary buffers into the per_cpu_directory: # ls /debug/tracing/per_cpu/cpu1/ trace trace_pipe trace_pipe_raw The new name is called "trace_pipe_raw".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The binary printk saves a pointer to the format string in the ring buffer.

| * | tracing: have event_trace_printk use static tracerSteven Rostedt2009-03-122-10/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: speed up on event tracing The event_trace_printk is currently a wrapper function that calls trace_vprintk.

| * | tracing/core: bring back raw trace_printk for dynamic formats stringsFrederic Weisbecker2009-03-128-39/+213

But the value is assigned once at build time, which means that it can't take dynamic formats. So this patch unearthes the raw trace_printk implementation for the callers that will need trace_printk to be able to carry these dynamic format strings. The trace_printk() macro will use the appropriate implementation for each callsite. Most of the time however, the binary implementation will still be used. The other impact of this patch is that mmiotrace_printk() will use the old implementation because it calls the low level trace_vprintk and we can't guess here whether the format passed in it is dynamic or not. Some parts of this patch have been written by Steven Rostedt (most notably the part that chooses the appropriate implementation for each callsites).

| * | | ring-buffer: only allocate buffers for online cpusSteven Rostedt2009-03-112-56/+216
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: save on memory Currently, a ring buffer was allocated for each "possible_cpus". On some systems, this is the same as NR_CPUS. Thus, if a system defined NR_CPUS = 64 but it only had 1 CPU, we could have possibly 63 useless ring buffers taking up space. With a default buffer of 3 megs, this could be quite drastic. This patch changes the ring buffer code to only allocate ring buffers for online CPUs. If a CPU goes off line, we do not free the buffer. This is because the user may still have trace data in that buffer that they would like to look at. Perhaps in the future we could add code to delete a ring buffer if the CPU is offline and the ring buffer becomes empty. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
| * | | tracing: fix trace_wait to know to wait on all cpus or just oneSteven Rostedt2009-03-111-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix to task live locking on reading trace_pipe on one CPU The same code is used for both trace_pipe (all CPUS) and the per_cpu trace_pipe file. When there is no data to read, it will check for signals and wait on the trace wait queue. The problem happens with the per_cpu wait. The trace_wait code checks all CPUs. Thus, if there's data in another CPU buffer, then it will exit the wait, without checking for signals or waiting on the wait queue. It would then try to read the empty buffer, and since that will just return nothing, then it will try to wait again. Unfortunately, that will again fail due to there still being data in the other buffers. This ends up with a live lock for the task. This patch fixes the trace_wait to be aware that the iterator may only be waiting on a single buffer. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

This currently happens to be 1.4Megs per possible CPU. This is quite a bit of wasted memory if the system is never using the tracer. The current solution is to keep the ring buffers to a minimum size until the user uses them. Once a tracer is piped into the current_tracer the ring buffer will be expanded to the default size. If the user changes the size of the ring buffer, it will take the size given by the user immediately. If the user adds a "ftrace=" to the kernel command line, then the ring buffers will be set to the default size on initialization. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

This is due to KERNELRELEASE being different when the initial make is run and when make is run from rpmbuild. mkspec creates kernel.spec using KERNELRELEASE: <mkspec> echo "%files" echo '%defattr (-, root, root)' echo "%dir /lib/modules" echo "/lib/modules/$KERNELRELEASE" echo "/lib/firmware" echo "/boot/*" echo "" </mkspec> When CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y scripts/setlocalversion is called and grabs any additional version info from SCM. Next, the srctree is tarred up and SCM information is excluded. rpmbuild reruns make and in the process generates a new include/config/kernel.release and thus a new KERNELRELEASE. However this time the SCM information is gone so KERNELRELEASE no longer has the additional version information. When "make modules_install" runs, it uses the new KERNELRELEASE value to determine where to install the modules. This conflicts with where the spec file assumes they are going because of the mis-matching KERNELRELEASE versions. <snippet> + INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root + make -j16 modules_install INSTALL crypto/aead.ko INSTALL crypto/cbc.ko INSTALL crypto/chainiv.ko INSTALL crypto/crc32c.ko INSTALL crypto/crypto_algapi.ko INSTALL crypto/crypto_blkcipher.ko INSTALL crypto/crypto_hash.ko INSTALL crypto/cryptomgr.ko INSTALL crypto/ecb.ko INSTALL crypto/eseqiv.ko INSTALL crypto/krng.ko INSTALL crypto/md5.ko INSTALL crypto/pcbc.ko INSTALL crypto/rng.ko INSTALL drivers/block/cciss.ko INSTALL drivers/hid/hid-dummy.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/iscsi_tcp.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/libiscsi.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/libiscsi_tcp.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.ko INSTALL drivers/scsi/scsi_wait_scan.ko INSTALL fs/lockd/lockd.ko INSTALL fs/nfs/nfs.ko INSTALL fs/nfsd/nfsd.ko INSTALL lib/libcrc32c.ko INSTALL net/sunrpc/sunrpc.ko DEPMOD 2.6.29-rc4-tip + cp arch/x86/boot/bzImage /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 + cp System.map /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/boot/System.map-2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 + cp .config /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/boot/config-2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 + cp vmlinux vmlinux.orig + bzip2 -9 vmlinux + mv vmlinux.bz2 /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/boot/vmlinux-2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422.bz2 + mv vmlinux.orig vmlinux + /usr/lib/rpm/brp-compress Processing files: kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-2 error: File not found: /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/lib/modules/2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 RPM build errors: File not found: /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.29rc4tip01479g5d85422-root/lib/modules/2.6.29-rc4-tip-01479-g5d85422 make[1]: *** [rpm] Error 1 make: *** [rpm] Error 2 </snippet> I have tested this patch on git -tip, Linus' git tree, and the kernel.org tar files, both with and without CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y.
