* ftrace/x86: Have x86 ftrace use the ftrace_modify_all_code()Steven Rostedt2012-05-161-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | To remove duplicate code, have the ftrace arch_ftrace_update_code() use the generic ftrace_modify_all_code(). This requires that the default ftrace_replace_code() becomes a weak function so that an arch may override it. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Make ftrace_modify_all_code() global for archs to useSteven Rostedt2012-05-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | Rename __ftrace_modify_code() to ftrace_modify_all_code() and make it global for all archs to use. This will remove the duplication of code, as archs that can modify code without stop_machine() can use it directly outside of the stop_machine() call.

* ftrace: Return record ip addr for ftrace_location()Steven Rostedt2012-05-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ftrace_location() is passed an addr, and returns 1 if the addr is on a ftrace nop (or caller to ftrace_caller), and 0 otherwise. To let kprobes know if it should move a breakpoint or not, it must return the actual addr that is the start of the ftrace nop. This way a kprobe placed on the location of a ftrace nop, can instead be placed on the instruction after the nop. Even if the probe addr is on the second or later byte of the nop, it can simply be moved forward.

* ftrace/x86: Have arch x86_64 use breakpoints instead of stop machineSteven Rostedt2012-04-271-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This method changes x86 to add a breakpoint to the mcount locations instead of calling stop machine. Now that iret can be handled by NMIs, we perform the following to update code: 1) Add a breakpoint to all locations that will be modified 2) Sync all cores 3) Update all locations to be either a nop or call (except breakpoint op) 4) Sync all cores 5) Remove the breakpoint with the new code. 6) Sync all cores [ Added updates that Masami suggested: Use unlikely(modifying_ftrace_code) in int3 trap to keep kprobes efficient. Don't use NOTIFY_* in ftrace handler in int3 as it is not a notifier. ] Cc: H.

* ftrace, perf: Add filter support for function trace eventJiri Olsa2012-02-211-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adding support to filter function trace event via perf interface. It is now possible to use filter interface in the perf tool like: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter="(ip == mm_*)" ls The filter syntax is restricted to the the 'ip' field only, and following operators are accepted '==' '!=' '||', ending up with the filter strings like: ip == f1[, ]f2 ... || ip != f3[, ]f4 ... with comma ',' or space ' ' as a function separator. If the space ' ' is used as a separator, the right side of the assignment needs to be enclosed in double quotes '"', e.g.: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == do_execve,sys_*,ext*)' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve,sys_*,ext*")' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve sys_* ext*")' ls The '==' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_filter file. The '!=' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_notrace file. The right side of the '!=', '==' operators is list of functions or regexp. to be added to filter separated by space. The '||' operator is used for connecting multiple filter definitions together. It is possible to have more than one '==' and '!=' operators within one filter string.

* ftrace: Add enable/disable ftrace_ops control interfaceJiri Olsa2012-02-211-0/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adding a way to temporarily enable/disable ftrace_ops. The change follows the same way as 'global' ftrace_ops are done. Introducing 2 global ftrace_ops - control_ops and ftrace_control_list which take over all ftrace_ops registered with FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL flag. In addition new per cpu flag called 'disabled' is also added to ftrace_ops to provide the control information for each cpu. When ftrace_ops with FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL is registered, it is set as disabled for all cpus. The ftrace_control_list contains all the registered 'control' ftrace_ops. The control_ops provides function which iterates ftrace_control_list and does the check for 'disabled' flag on current cpu. Adding 3 inline functions: ftrace_function_local_disable/ftrace_function_local_enable - enable/disable the ftrace_ops on current cpu ftrace_function_local_disabled - get disabled ftrace_ops::disabled value for current cpu Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1329317514-8131-2-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com Acked-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the ftrace_set_filter and ftrace_set_notrace functions do not return any return code. So there's no way for ftrace_ops user to tell wether the filter was correctly applied. The set_ftrace_filter interface returns error in case the filter did not match: # echo krava > set_ftrace_filter bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument Changing both ftrace_set_filter and ftrace_set_notrace functions to return zero if the filter was applied correctly or -E* values in case of error.

* tracing: Fix compile error when static ftrace is enabledSteven Rostedt2012-01-071-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The stack tracer uses the call ftrace_set_early_filter() function to allow the stack tracer to pick its own functions on boot. But this function is not defined if dynamic ftrace is not set. This causes a compiler error when stack tracer is enabled and dynamic ftrace is not.

| | | | | | | | | Change set_ftrace_early_filter() to ftrace_set_early_filter() and make it a global function. This will allow other subsystems in the kernel to be able to enable function tracing at start up and reuse the ftrace function parsing code. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Decouple hash items from showing filtered functionsSteven Rostedt2011-12-211-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | The set_ftrace_filter shows "hashed" functions, which are functions that are added with operations to them (like traceon and traceoff). As other subsystems may be able to show what functions they are using for function tracing, the hash items should no longer be shown just because the FILTER flag is set. As they have nothing to do with other subsystems filters. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Allow other users of function tracing to use the output listingSteven Rostedt2011-12-211-0/+35
| | | | | | | | | The function tracer is set up to allow any other subsystem (like perf) to use it. Ftrace already has a way to list what functions are enabled by the global_ops. It would be very helpful to let other users of the function tracer to be able to use the same code. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Replace record newlist with record page listSteven Rostedt2011-12-211-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As new functions come in to be initalized from mcount to nop, they are done by groups of pages. Whether it is the core kernel or a module. There's no need to keep track of these on a per record basis. At startup, and as any module is loaded, the functions to be traced are stored in a group of pages and added to the function list at the end. We just need to keep a pointer to the first page of the list that was added, and use that to know where to start on the list for initializing functions.

* ftrace: Remove usage of "freed" recordsSteven Rostedt2011-12-211-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Records that are added to the function trace table are permanently there, except for modules. By separating out the modules to their own pages that can be freed in one shot we can remove the "freed" flag and simplify some of the record management. Another benefit of doing this is that we can also move the records around; sort them. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Allow archs to modify code without stop machineSteven Rostedt2011-12-211-0/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The stop machine method to modify all functions in the kernel (some 20,000 of them) is the safest way to do so across all archs. But some archs may not need this big hammer approach to modify code on SMP machines, and can simply just update the code it needs. Adding a weak function arch_ftrace_update_code() that now does the stop machine, will also let any arch override this method. If the arch needs to check the system and then decide if it can avoid stop machine, it can still call ftrace_run_stop_machine() to use the old method.

* include: replace linux/module.h with "struct module" wherever possiblePaul Gortmaker2011-10-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The <linux/module.h> pretty much brings in the kitchen sink along with it, so it should be avoided wherever reasonably possible in terms of being included from other commonly used <linux/something.h> files, as it results in a measureable increase on compile times. The worst culprit was probably device.h since it is used everywhere. This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time. There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead and simply make it a few more. Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can finally make this change with hopefully minimal breakage.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new code that allows different utilities to pick and choose what functions they trace broke the :mod: hook that allows users to trace only functions of a particular module. The reason is that the :mod: hook bypasses the hash that is setup to allow individual users to trace their own functions and uses the global hash directly. But if the global hash has not been set up, it will cause a bug: echo '*:mod:radeon' > /sys/kernel/debug/set_ftrace_filter produces: [drm:drm_mode_getfb] *ERROR* invalid framebuffer id [drm:radeon_crtc_page_flip] *ERROR* failed to reserve new rbo buffer before flip BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffff8160ec90 IP: [<ffffffff810d9136>] add_hash_entry+0x66/0xd0 PGD 1a05067 PUD 1a09063 PMD 80000000016001e1 Oops: 0003 [#1] SMP Jul 7 04:02:28 phyllis kernel: [55303.858604] CPU 1 Modules linked in: cryptd aes_x86_64 aes_generic binfmt_misc rfcomm bnep ip6table_filter hid radeon r8169 ahci libahci mii ttm drm_kms_helper drm video i2c_algo_bit intel_agp intel_gtt Pid: 10344, comm: bash Tainted: G WC 3.0.0-rc5 #1 Dell Inc.

* ftrace: Modify ftrace_set_filter/notrace to take opsSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since users of the function tracer can now pick and choose which functions they want to trace agnostically from other users of the function tracer, we need to pass the ops struct to the ftrace_set_filter() functions.

* ftrace: Allow dynamically allocated function tracersSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that functions may be selected individually, it only makes sense that we should allow dynamically allocated trace structures to be traced. This will allow perf to allocate a ftrace_ops structure at runtime and use it to pick and choose which functions that structure will trace. Note, a dynamically allocated ftrace_ops will always be called indirectly instead of being called directly from the mcount in entry.S. This is because there's no safe way to prevent mcount from being preempted before calling the function, unless we modify every entry.S to do so (not likely). Thus, dynamically allocated functions will now be called by the ftrace_ops_list_func() that loops through the ops that are allocated if there are more than one op allocated at a time. This loop is protected with a preempt_disable. To determine if an ftrace_ops structure is allocated or not, a new util function was added to the kernel/extable.c called core_kernel_data(), which returns 1 if the address is between _sdata and _edata.

| | | | | | | | | | | | ftrace_ops that are registered to trace functions can now be agnostic to each other in respect to what functions they trace. Each ops has their own hash of the functions they want to trace and a hash to what they do not want to trace.

* ftrace: Use counters to enable functions to traceSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every function has its own record that stores the instruction pointer and flags for the function to be traced. There are only two flags: enabled and free. The enabled flag states that tracing for the function has been enabled (actively traced), and the free flag states that the record no longer points to a function and can be used by new functions (loaded modules). These flags are now moved to the MSB of the flags (actually just the top 32bits). The rest of the bits (30 bits) are now used as a ref counter. Everytime a tracer register functions to trace, those functions will have its counter incremented. When tracing is enabled, to determine if a function should be traced, the counter is examined, and if it is non-zero it is set to trace. When a ftrace_ops is registered to trace functions, its hashes are examined. If the ftrace_ops filter_hash count is zero, then all functions are set to be traced, otherwise only the functions in the hash are to be traced. The exception to this is if a function is also in the ftrace_ops notrace_hash. Then that function's counter is not incremented for this ftrace_ops. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The global_ops is a ftrace_ops structure that is passed to different functions that can read or modify the filtering of the function tracer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we disable all function tracer processing if we detect that a modification of a instruction had failed, we do not need to track that the record has failed.

* ftrace: Fix memory leak with function graph and cpu hotplugSteven Rostedt2011-02-111-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the fuction graph tracer starts, it needs to make a special stack for each task to save the real return values of the tasks. All running tasks have this stack created, as well as any new tasks. On CPU hot plug, the new idle task will allocate a stack as well when init_idle() is called. The problem is that cpu hotplug does not create a new idle_task. Instead it uses the idle task that existed when the cpu went down. ftrace_graph_init_task() will add a new ret_stack to the task that is given to it. Because a clone will make the task have a stack of its parent it does not check if the task's ret_stack is already NULL or not. When the CPU hotplug code starts a CPU up again, it will allocate a new stack even though one already existed for it. The solution is to treat the idle_task specially. In fact, the function_graph code already does, just not at init_idle(). Instead of using the ftrace_graph_init_task() for the idle task, which that function expects the task to be a clone, have a separate ftrace_graph_init_idle_task(). Also, we will create a per_cpu ret_stack that is used by the idle task. When we call ftrace_graph_init_idle_task() it will check if the idle task's ret_stack is NULL, if it is, then it will assign it the per_cpu ret_stack.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ftrace.h file contains several functions as macros when the functions are disabled due to config options. This patch converts most of them to static inlines. There are two exceptions: register_ftrace_function() and unregister_ftrace_function() This is because their parameter "ops" must not be evaluated since code using the function is allowed to #ifdef out the creation of the parameter. This also fixes an error caused by recent changes: kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c: In function 'start_irqsoff_tracer': kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c:571: error: expected expression before 'do' Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

It's nice when you have few cpus but it may take ages if have many, plus you miss the real origin of the problem in all the cpu traces. Sometimes, all you need is to dump the cpu buffer that triggered the opps, most of the time it is our main interest. This patch modifies ftrace_dump_on_oops to handle this choice. The ftrace_dump_on_oops kernel parameter, when it comes alone, has the same behaviour than before. But ftrace_dump_on_oops=orig_cpu will only dump the buffer of the cpu that oops'ed. Similarly, sysctl kernel.ftrace_dump_on_oops=1 and echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops keep their previous behaviour.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Support for the PMU's BTS features has been upstreamed in v2.6.32, but we still have the old and disabled ptrace-BTS, as Linus noticed it not so long ago. It's buggy: TIF_DEBUGCTLMSR is trampling all over that MSR without regard for other uses (perf) and doesn't provide the flexibility needed for perf either. Its users are ptrace-block-step and ptrace-bts, since ptrace-bts was never used and ptrace-block-step can be implemented using a much simpler approach. So axe all 3000 lines of it. That includes the *locked_memory*() APIs in mm/mlock.c as well.

* function-graph: add stack frame testSteven Rostedt2009-06-181-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return from function code, we would like to detect that. An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for this purpose. This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit. There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes. This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was. This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate the new prototype. Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace. This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

* tracing: add same level recursion detectionSteven Rostedt2009-04-171-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tracing infrastructure allows for recursion. That is, an interrupt may interrupt the act of tracing an event, and that interrupt may very well perform its own trace. This is a recursive trace, and is fine to do. The problem arises when there is a bug, and the utility doing the trace calls something that recurses back into the tracer. This recursion is not caused by an external event like an interrupt, but by code that is not expected to recurse. The result could be a lockup. This patch adds a bitmask to the task structure that keeps track of the trace recursion. To find the interrupt depth, the following algorithm is used: level = hardirq_count() + softirq_count() + in_nmi; Here, level will be the depth of interrutps and softirqs, and even handles the nmi. Then the corresponding bit is set in the recursion bitmask. If the bit was already set, we know we had a recursion at the same level and we warn about it and fail the writing to the buffer. After the data has been committed to the buffer, we clear the bit. No atomics are needed. The only races are with interrupts and they reset the bitmask before returning anywy.

* ftrace: use module notifier for function tracerSteven Rostedt2009-04-171-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hooks in the module code for the function tracer must be called before any of that module code runs. The function tracer hooks modify the module (replacing calls to mcount to nops). If the code is executed while the change occurs, then the CPU can take a GPF. To handle the above with a bit of paranoia, I originally implemented the hooks as calls directly from the module code. After examining the notifier calls, it looks as though the start up notify is called before any of the module's code is executed. This makes the use of the notify safe with ftrace. Only the startup notify is required to be "safe". The shutdown simply removes the entries from the ftrace function list, and does not modify any code. This change has another benefit. It removes a issue with a reverse dependency in the mutexes of ftrace_lock and module_mutex.
