* ftrace: Do not pass data to ftrace_dyn_arch_initJiri Slaby2014-03-071-5/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As the data parameter is not really used by any ftrace_dyn_arch_init, remove that from ftrace_dyn_arch_init. This also removes the addr local variable from ftrace_init which is now unused. Note the documentation was imprecise as it did not suggest to set (*data) to 0.

* ftrace: Pass retval through return in ftrace_dyn_arch_init()Jiri Slaby2014-03-071-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against zero. Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on all archs.

* ftrace: Inline the code from ftrace_dyn_table_alloc()Jiri Slaby2014-03-071-19/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function used to do allocations some time ago. This no longer happens and it only checks the count and prints some info. This patch inlines the body to the only caller. There are two reasons: * the name of the function was misleading * it's clear what is going on in ftrace_init now Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1393268401-24379-2-git-send-email-jslaby@suse.cz Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

* tracing: Warn if a tracepoint is not set via debugfsSteven Rostedt2014-03-071-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tracepoints were made to allow enabling a tracepoint in a module before that module was loaded. When a tracepoint is enabled and it does not exist, the name is stored and will be enabled when the tracepoint is created. The problem with this approach is that when a tracepoint is enabled when it expects to be there, it gives no warning that it does not exist. To add salt to the wound, if a module is added and sets the FORCED flag, which can happen if it isn't signed properly, the tracepoint code will not enabled the tracepoints, but they will be created in the debugfs system! When a user goes to enable the tracepoint, the tracepoint code will not see it existing and will think it is to be enabled later AND WILL NOT GIVE A WARNING. The tracing will look like it succeeded but will actually be doing nothing. This will cause lots of confusion and headaches for developers trying to figure out why they are not seeing their tracepoints.

* tracing: Use helper functions in event assignment to shrink macro sizeSteven Rostedt2014-03-071-0/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The functions that assign the contents for the ftrace events are defined by the TRACE_EVENT() macros. Each event has its own unique way to assign data to its buffer. When you have over 500 events, that means there's 500 functions assigning data uniquely for each event (not really that many, as DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and multiple DEFINE_EVENT()s will only need a single function). By making helper functions in the core kernel to do some of the work instead, we can shrink the size of the kernel down a bit. With a kernel configured with 502 events, the change in size was: text data bss dec hex filename 12987390 1913504 9785344 24686238 178ae9e /tmp/vmlinux 12959102 1913504 9785344 24657950 178401e /tmp/vmlinux.patched That's a total of 28288 bytes, which comes down to 56 bytes per event.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code that shows array fields for events is defined for all events. This can add up quite a bit when you have over 500 events.

* tracing: Move raw output code from macro to standalone functionSteven Rostedt2014-03-071-0/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The code for trace events to format the raw recorded event data into human readable format in the 'trace' file is repeated for every event in the system. When you have over 500 events, this can add up quite a bit. By making helper functions in the core kernel to do the work instead, we can shrink the size of the kernel down a bit. With a kernel configured with 502 events, the change in size was: text data bss dec hex filename 12991007 1913568 9785344 24689919 178bcff /tmp/vmlinux.orig 12990946 1913568 9785344 24689858 178bcc2 /tmp/vmlinux.patched Note, this version does not save as much as the version of this patch I had a few years ago. That is because in the mean time, commit f71130de5c7f ("tracing: Add a helper function for event print functions") did a lot of the work my original patch did. But this change helps slightly, and is part of a larger clean up to reduce the size much further.

* tracing: Add trace_clock=<clock> kernel parameterSteven Rostedt2014-02-201-16/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Being able to change the trace clock at boot can be advantageous if you need a better source of when things happen across CPUs. The default trace clock is the fastest, but it uses local clocks which may not be synced across CPUs and it does not let you know when events took place with respect to events on other CPUs. The global trace clock can help in this case, and if you do not care about timings, the counter "clock" is the best, as that is just a simple atomic counter that is incremented for every event. Usage is to add "trace_clock=counter" on the kernel command line. You can replace counter with "global" or any of the clocks listed in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_clock Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Tested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Appreciated-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

* tracing/uprobes: Support ftrace_event_file base multibufferzhangwei(Jovi)2014-02-203-38/+101
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Support multi-buffer on uprobe-based dynamic events by using ftrace_event_file. This patch is based kprobe-based dynamic events multibuffer support work initially, commited by Masami(commit 41a7dd420c), but revised as below: Oleg changed the kprobe-based multibuffer design from array-pointers of ftrace_event_file into simple list, so this patch also change to the list design. rcu_read_lock/unlock added into uprobe_trace_func/uretprobe_trace_func, to synchronize with ftrace_event_file list add and delete. Even though we allow multi-uprobes instances now, but TP_FLAG_PROFILE/TP_FLAG_TRACE are still mutually exclusive in probe_event_enable currently, this means we cannot allow one user is using uprobe-tracer, and another user is using perf-probe on same uprobe concurrently. (Perhaps this will be fix in future, kprobe don't have this limitation now) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1389946120-19610-4-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Reviewed-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: zhangwei(Jovi) <jovi.zhangwei@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The reason is that the idle routine of those AMD systems switches the cpu into forced broadcast mode early on before the newly brought up CPU can switch over to high resolution / NOHZ mode. The timer related CPU1 bringup looks like this: clockevent_register_device(local_apic); tick_setup(local_apic); ... idle() tick_broadcast_on_off(FORCE); tick_broadcast_oneshot_control(ENTER) cpumask_set(cpu, broadcast_oneshot_mask); halt(); Now the broadcast interrupt on CPU0 sets CPU1 in the broadcast_pending_mask and wakes CPU1. So CPU1 continues: local_apic_timer_interrupt() tick_handle_periodic(); softirq() tick_init_highres(); cpumask_clr(cpu, broadcast_oneshot_mask); tick_broadcast_oneshot_control(ENTER) WARN_ON(cpumask_test(cpu, broadcast_pending_mask); So while we remove CPU1 from the broadcast_oneshot_mask when we switch over to highres mode, we do not clear the pending bit, which then triggers the warning when we go back to idle. The reason why this is only visible on C1E affected AMD systems is that the other machines enter the deep sleep states via acpi_idle/intel_idle and exit the broadcast mode before executing the remote triggered local_apic_timer_interrupt. So the pending bit is already cleared when the switch over to highres mode is clearing the oneshot mask. The solution is simple: Clear the pending bit together with the mask bit when we switch over to highres mode. Stanislaw came up independently with the same patch by enforcing the C1E workaround and debugging the fallout.

* | | ring-buffer: Fix first commit on sub-buffer having non-zero deltaSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)2014-02-111-0/+7
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each sub-buffer (buffer page) has a full 64 bit timestamp. The events on that page use a 27 bit delta against that timestamp in order to save on bits written to the ring buffer. If the time between events is larger than what the 27 bits can hold, a "time extend" event is added to hold the entire 64 bit timestamp again and the events after that hold a delta from that timestamp. As a "time extend" is always paired with an event, it is logical to just allocate the event with the time extend, to make things a bit more efficient. Unfortunately, when the pairing code was written, it removed the "delta = 0" from the first commit on a page, causing the events on the page to be slightly skewed.

* | execve: use 'struct filename *' for executable name passingLinus Torvalds2014-02-052-2/+2
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes 'do_execve()' to get the executable name as a 'struct filename', and to free it when it is done. This is what the normal users want, and it simplifies and streamlines their error handling. The controlled lifetime of the executable name also fixes a use-after-free problem with the trace_sched_process_exec tracepoint: the lifetime of the passed-in string for kernel users was not at all obvious, and the user-mode helper code used UMH_WAIT_EXEC to serialize the pathname allocation lifetime with the execve() having finished, which in turn meant that the trace point that happened after mm_release() of the old process VM ended up using already free'd memory. To solve the kernel string lifetime issue, this simply introduces "getname_kernel()" that works like the normal user-space getname() function, except with the source coming from kernel memory. As Oleg points out, this also means that we could drop the tcomm[] array from 'struct linux_binprm', since the pathname lifetime now covers setup_new_exec(). That would be a separate cleanup.

But this microseconds operand is an unsigned int, thus the result may likely overflow. The result is cast to u64 but only once the operation is completed, which is too late to avoid overflown result. This is currently not a problem because the scheduler tick max deferment is 1 second. But this may become an issue as we plan to make this value tunable. So lets fix this by casting the usecs value to u64 before multiplying by NSECS_PER_USEC. Also to prevent from this kind of mistake to happen again, move this ad-hoc jiffies -> nsecs conversion to a new helper.

These function are also symetric as they mirror each other's action: we start to account idle time on irq exit and we stop this accounting on irq entry. Also the tick is stopped on irq exit and timekeeping catches up with the tickless time elapsed until we reach irq entry. This rename was suggested by Peter Zijlstra a long while ago but it got forgotten in the mass.

Limiting the number of backtraces being printed out can result in the user not seeing the information necessary to debug the issue. The hung_task_warnings sysctl controls this feature. This patch makes it possible for hung_task_warnings to accept a special value to print an unlimited number of backtraces when khungtaskd detects hung tasks. The special value is -1. To use this value it is necessary to change types from ulong to int.
