* tracing: define needed config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGSLukas Bulwahn2021-08-121-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 2860cd8a2353 ("livepatch: Use the default ftrace_ops instead of REGS when ARGS is available") intends to enable config LIVEPATCH when ftrace with ARGS is available. However, the chain of configs to enable LIVEPATCH is incomplete, as HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is available, but the definition of DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, combining DYNAMIC_FTRACE and HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, needed to enable LIVEPATCH, is missing in the commit. Fortunately, ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py detects this and warns: DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS Referencing files: kernel/livepatch/Kconfig So, define the config DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS analogously to the already existing similar configs, DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS, in ./kernel/trace/Kconfig to connect the chain of configs.

* trace: Add timerlat tracerDaniel Bristot de Oliveira2021-06-251-0/+28

Like cyclictest, the tracer sets a periodic timer that wakes up a thread. The thread then computes a *wakeup latency* value as the difference between the *current time* and the *absolute time* that the timer was set to expire. The main goal of timerlat is tracing in such a way to help kernel developers. Usage Write the ASCII text "timerlat" into the current_tracer file of the tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing). For example: [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ [root@f32 tracing]# echo timerlat > current_tracer It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file: [root@f32 tracing]# cat trace # tracer: timerlat # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # || / # |||| ACTIVATION # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP ID CONTEXT LATENCY # | | | |||| | | | | <idle>-0 [000] d.h1 54.029328: #1 context irq timer_latency 932 ns <...>-867 [000] .... 54.029339: #1 context thread timer_latency 11700 ns <idle>-0 [001] dNh1 54.029346: #1 context irq timer_latency 2833 ns <...>-868 [001] .... 54.029353: #1 context thread timer_latency 9820 ns <idle>-0 [000] d.h1 54.030328: #2 context irq timer_latency 769 ns <...>-867 [000] .... 54.030330: #2 context thread timer_latency 3070 ns <idle>-0 [001] d.h1 54.030344: #2 context irq timer_latency 935 ns <...>-868 [001] .... 54.030347: #2 context thread timer_latency 4351 ns The tracer creates a per-cpu kernel thread with real-time priority that prints two lines at every activation. The first is the *timer latency* observed at the *hardirq* context before the activation of the thread. The second is the *timer latency* observed by the thread, which is the same level that cyclictest reports. The ACTIVATION ID field serves to relate the *irq* execution to its respective *thread* execution. The irq/thread splitting is important to clarify at which context the unexpected high value is coming from. The *irq* context can be delayed by hardware related actions, such as SMIs, NMIs, IRQs or by a thread masking interrupts. Once the timer happens, the delay can also be influenced by blocking caused by threads. For example, by postponing the scheduler execution via preempt_disable(), by the scheduler execution, or by masking interrupts. Threads can also be delayed by the interference from other threads and IRQs. The timerlat can also take advantage of the osnoise: traceevents. For example: [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ [root@f32 tracing]# echo timerlat > current_tracer [root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > set_event [root@f32 tracing]# echo 25 > osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us [root@f32 tracing]# tail -10 trace cc1-87882 [005] d..h... 548.771078: #402268 context irq timer_latency 1585 ns cc1-87882 [005] dNLh1.. 548.771082: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 548.771077442 duration 4597 ns cc1-87882 [005] dNLh2.. 548.771083: irq_noise: reschedule:253 start 548.771083017 duration 56 ns cc1-87882 [005] dNLh2.. 548.771086: irq_noise: call_function_single:251 start 548.771083811 duration 2048 ns cc1-87882 [005] dNLh2.. 548.771088: irq_noise: call_function_single:251 start 548.771086814 duration 1495 ns cc1-87882 [005] dNLh2.. 548.771091: irq_noise: call_function_single:251 start 548.771089194 duration 1558 ns cc1-87882 [005] dNLh2.. 548.771094: irq_noise: call_function_single:251 start 548.771091719 duration 1932 ns cc1-87882 [005] dNLh2.. 548.771096: irq_noise: call_function_single:251 start 548.771094696 duration 1050 ns cc1-87882 [005] d...3.. 548.771101: thread_noise: cc1:87882 start 548.771078243 duration 10909 ns timerlat/5-1035 [005] ....... 548.771103: #402268 context thread timer_latency 25960 ns For further information see: Documentation/trace/timerlat-tracer.rst Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/71f18efc013e1194bcaea1e54db957de2b19ba62.1624372313.git.bristot@redhat.com Cc: Phil Auld <pauld@redhat.com> Cc: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Cc: Kate Carcia <kcarcia@redhat.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Alexandre Chartre <alexandre.chartre@oracle.com> Cc: Clark Willaims <williams@redhat.com> Cc: John Kacur <jkacur@redhat.com> Cc: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@redhat.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: "H.

* trace: Add osnoise tracerDaniel Bristot de Oliveira2021-06-251-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the context of high-performance computing (HPC), the Operating System Noise (*osnoise*) refers to the interference experienced by an application due to activities inside the operating system. In the context of Linux, NMIs, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and any other system thread can cause noise to the system. Moreover, hardware-related jobs can also cause noise, for example, via SMIs. The osnoise tracer leverages the hwlat_detector by running a similar loop with preemption, SoftIRQs and IRQs enabled, thus allowing all the sources of *osnoise* during its execution. Using the same approach of hwlat, osnoise takes note of the entry and exit point of any source of interferences, increasing a per-cpu interference counter. The osnoise tracer also saves an interference counter for each source of interference. The interference counter for NMI, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and threads is increased anytime the tool observes these interferences' entry events. When a noise happens without any interference from the operating system level, the hardware noise counter increases, pointing to a hardware-related noise. In this way, osnoise can account for any source of interference. At the end of the period, the osnoise tracer prints the sum of all noise, the max single noise, the percentage of CPU available for the thread, and the counters for the noise sources. Usage Write the ASCII text "osnoise" into the current_tracer file of the tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing). For example:: [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ [root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > current_tracer It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file:: [root@f32 tracing]# cat trace # tracer: osnoise # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth MAX # || / SINGLE Interference counters: # |||| RUNTIME NOISE % OF CPU NOISE +-----------------------------+ # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP IN US IN US AVAILABLE IN US HW NMI IRQ SIRQ THREAD # | | | |||| | | | | | | | | | | <...>-859 [000] .... 81.637220: 1000000 190 99.98100 9 18 0 1007 18 1 <...>-860 [001] .... 81.638154: 1000000 656 99.93440 74 23 0 1006 16 3 <...>-861 [002] .... 81.638193: 1000000 5675 99.43250 202 6 0 1013 25 21 <...>-862 [003] .... 81.638242: 1000000 125 99.98750 45 1 0 1011 23 0 <...>-863 [004] .... 81.638260: 1000000 1721 99.82790 168 7 0 1002 49 41 <...>-864 [005] .... 81.638286: 1000000 263 99.97370 57 6 0 1006 26 2 <...>-865 [006] .... 81.638302: 1000000 109 99.98910 21 3 0 1006 18 1 <...>-866 [007] .... 81.638326: 1000000 7816 99.21840 107 8 0 1016 39 19 In addition to the regular trace fields (from TASK-PID to TIMESTAMP), the tracer prints a message at the end of each period for each CPU that is running an osnoise/CPU thread. The osnoise specific fields report: - The RUNTIME IN USE reports the amount of time in microseconds that the osnoise thread kept looping reading the time. - The NOISE IN US reports the sum of noise in microseconds observed by the osnoise tracer during the associated runtime. - The % OF CPU AVAILABLE reports the percentage of CPU available for the osnoise thread during the runtime window. - The MAX SINGLE NOISE IN US reports the maximum single noise observed during the runtime window. - The Interference counters display how many each of the respective interference happened during the runtime window. Note that the example above shows a high number of HW noise samples. The reason being is that this sample was taken on a virtual machine, and the host interference is detected as a hardware interference. Tracer options The tracer has a set of options inside the osnoise directory, they are: - osnoise/cpus: CPUs at which a osnoise thread will execute. - osnoise/period_us: the period of the osnoise thread. - osnoise/runtime_us: how long an osnoise thread will look for noise. - osnoise/stop_tracing_us: stop the system tracing if a single noise higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this option. - osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us: stop the system tracing if total noise higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this option. - tracing_threshold: the minimum delta between two time() reads to be considered as noise, in us. When set to 0, the default value will be used, which is currently 5 us. Additional Tracing In addition to the tracer, a set of tracepoints were added to facilitate the identification of the osnoise source. - osnoise:sample_threshold: printed anytime a noise is higher than the configurable tolerance_ns. - osnoise:nmi_noise: noise from NMI, including the duration. - osnoise:irq_noise: noise from an IRQ, including the duration. - osnoise:softirq_noise: noise from a SoftIRQ, including the duration. - osnoise:thread_noise: noise from a thread, including the duration. Note that all the values are *net values*. For example, if while osnoise is running, another thread preempts the osnoise thread, it will start a thread_noise duration at the start. Then, an IRQ takes place, preempting the thread_noise, starting a irq_noise. When the IRQ ends its execution, it will compute its duration, and this duration will be subtracted from the thread_noise, in such a way as to avoid the double accounting of the IRQ execution. This logic is valid for all sources of noise. Here is one example of the usage of these tracepoints:: osnoise/8-961 [008] d.h. 5789.857532: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.857529929 duration 1845 ns osnoise/8-961 [008] dNh. 5789.858408: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.858404871 duration 2848 ns migration/8-54 [008] d... 5789.858413: thread_noise: migration/8:54 start 5789.858409300 duration 3068 ns osnoise/8-961 [008] .... 5789.858413: sample_threshold: start 5789.858404555 duration 8723 ns interferences 2 In this example, a noise sample of 8 microseconds was reported in the last line, pointing to two interferences. Looking backward in the trace, the two previous entries were about the migration thread running after a timer IRQ execution. The first event is not part of the noise because it took place one millisecond before. It is worth noticing that the sum of the duration reported in the tracepoints is smaller than eight us reported in the sample_threshold. The reason roots in the overhead of the entry and exit code that happens before and after any interference execution. This justifies the dual approach: measuring thread and tracing.

* | tracing/kprobes: Do the notrace functions check without kprobes on ftraceMasami Hiramatsu2021-01-111-1/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Enable the notrace function check on the architecture which doesn't support kprobes on ftrace but support dynamic ftrace. This notrace function check is not only for the kprobes on ftrace but also sw-breakpoint based kprobes. Thus there is no reason to limit this check for the arch which supports kprobes on ftrace. This also changes the dependency of Kconfig. Because kprobe event uses the function tracer's address list for identifying notrace function, if the CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=n, it can not check whether the target function is notrace or not.

Currently, only x86_64 enables it. All the ftrace callbacks now take a struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct pt_regs. If the architecture has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then the ftrace_regs will have enough information to read the arguments of the function being traced, as well as access to the stack pointer. This way, if a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the arguments, then it can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback, that puts in enough information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate a breakpoint exception (needed for kprobes). A new config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring buffer at most every event recorded. Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection to the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those callbacks). Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace to do it for it (saving on that extra function call). New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that lists all the places that triggered the recursion protection of the function tracer. This will show where things need to be fixed as recursion slows down the function tracer. The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a work queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.

| * ring-buffer: Add test to validate the time stamp deltasSteven Rostedt (VMware)2020-12-011-0/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While debugging a situation where a delta for an event was calucalted wrong, I realize there was nothing making sure that the delta of events are correct. If a single event has an incorrect delta, then all events after it will also have one. If the discrepency gets large enough, it could cause the time stamps to go backwards when crossing sub buffers, that record a full 64 bit time stamp, and the new deltas are added to that. Add a way to validate the events at most events and when crossing a buffer page. This will help make sure that the deltas are always correct. This test will detect if they are ever corrupted. The test adds a high overhead to the ring buffer recording, as it does the audit for almost every event, and should only be used for testing the ring buffer. This will catch the bug that is fixed by commit 55ea4cf40380 ("ring-buffer: Update write stamp with the correct ts"), which is not applied when this commit is applied.

| * ftrace/x86: Allow for arguments to be passed in to ftrace_regs by defaultSteven Rostedt (VMware)2020-11-131-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the only way to get access to the registers of a function via a ftrace callback is to set the "FL_SAVE_REGS" bit in the ftrace_ops. But as this saves all regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger (for use with kprobes), it is expensive. The regs are already saved on the stack for the default ftrace callbacks, as that is required otherwise a function being traced will get the wrong arguments and possibly crash. And on x86, the arguments are already stored where they would be on a pt_regs structure to use that code for both the regs version of a callback, it makes sense to pass that information always to all functions. If an architecture does this (as x86_64 now does), it is to set HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, and this will let the generic code that it could have access to arguments without having to set the flags. This also includes having the stack pointer being saved, which could be used for accessing arguments on the stack, as well as having the function graph tracer not require its own trampoline!

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The PREEMPTIRQ_EVENTS option is unused after commit c3bc8fd637a9 ("tracing: Centralize preemptirq tracepoints and unify their usage"). Remove it. Note that this option is hazardous as it stands. It enables TRACE_IRQFLAGS event on non-preempt configurations without the irqsoff tracer enabled. TRACE_IRQFLAGS as it stands incurs significant overhead on each IRQ entry/exit. This is because trace_hardirqs_[on|off] does all the per-cpu manipulations and NMI checks even if tracing is completely disabled for some insane reason. For example, netperf running UDP_STREAM on localhost incurs a 4-6% performance penalty without any tracing if IRQFLAGS is set. It can be put behind a static brach but even the function entry/exit costs a little bit.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the addition of the in-kernel synthetic event API, synthetic events are no longer specifically tied to the histogram triggers. The synthetic event code is also making trace_event_hist.c very bloated, so for those reasons, move it to a separate file, trace_events_synth.c, along with a new trace_synth.h header file. Because synthetic events are now independent from hist triggers, add a new CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENTS config option, and have CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS select it, and have CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENT_GEN_TEST depend on it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have some rather random rules about when we accept the "maybe-initialized" warnings, and when we don't. For example, we consider it unreliable for gcc versions < 4.9, but also if -O3 is enabled, or if optimizing for size. And then various kernel config options disabled it, because they know that they trigger that warning by confusing gcc sufficiently (ie PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES). And now gcc-10 seems to be introducing a lot of those warnings too, so it falls under the same heading as 4.9 did. At the same time, we have a very straightforward way to _enable_ that warning when wanted: use "W=2" to enable more warnings. So stop playing these ad-hoc games, and just disable that warning by default, with the known and straight-forward "if you want to work on the extra compiler warnings, use W=123". Would it be great to have code that is always so obvious that it never confuses the compiler whether a variable is used initialized or not? Yes, it would. In a perfect world, the compilers would be smarter, and our source code would be simpler. That's currently not the world we live in, though.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have been trying to use rasdaemon to monitor hardware errors like correctable memory errors. rasdaemon uses trace events to monitor various hardware errors. In order to test it, we have to inject some hardware errors, unfortunately not all of them provide error injections. MCE does provide a way to inject MCE errors, but errors like PCI error and devlink error don't, it is not easy to add error injection to each of them. Instead, it is relatively easier to just allow users to inject trace events in a generic way so that all trace events can be injected. This patch introduces trace event injection, where a new 'inject' is added to each tracepoint directory. Users could write into this file with key=value pairs to specify the value of each fields of the trace event, all unspecified fields are set to zero values by default. For example, for the net/net_dev_queue tracepoint, we can inject: INJECT=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/inject echo "" > $INJECT echo "name='test'" > $INJECT echo "name='test' len=1024" > $INJECT cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace ... <...>-614 [000] .... 36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 <...>-614 [001] .... 136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 <...>-614 [001] .N.. 208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024 Triggers could be triggered as usual too: echo "stacktrace if len == 1025" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/net_dev_queue/trigger echo "len=1025" > $INJECT cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace ... bash-614 [000] .... 36.571483: net_dev_queue: dev= skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 bash-614 [001] .... 136.588252: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=0 bash-614 [001] .N.. 208.431878: net_dev_queue: dev=test skbaddr=00000000fbf338c2 len=1024 bash-614 [001] .N.1 284.236349: <stack trace> => event_inject_write => vfs_write => ksys_write => do_syscall_64 => entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe The only thing that can't be injected is string pointers as they require constant string pointers, this can't be done at run time.

As /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled when set to zero will disable all attached callbacks in ftrace, this has a detrimental impact on live kernel tracing, as it disables all that it patched. If a ftrace_ops is registered to ftrace with the PERMANENT flag set, it will prevent ftrace_enabled from being disabled, and if ftrace_enabled is already disabled, it will prevent a ftrace_ops with PREMANENT flag set from being registered. - New register_ftrace_direct(). As eBPF would like to register its own trampolines to be called by the ftrace nop locations directly, without going through the ftrace trampoline, this function has been added. This allows for eBPF trampolines to live along side of ftrace, perf, kprobe and live patching. It also utilizes the ftrace enabled_functions file that keeps track of functions that have been modified in the kernel, to allow for security auditing. - Allow for kernel internal use of ftrace instances. Subsystems in the kernel can now create and destroy their own tracing instances which allows them to have their own tracing buffer, and be able to record events without worrying about other users from writing over their data. - New seq_buf_hex_dump() that lets users use the hex_dump() in their seq_buf usage. - Notifications now added to tracing_max_latency to allow user space to know when a new max latency is hit by one of the latency tracers. - Wider spread use of generic compare operations for use of bsearch and friends. - More synthetic event fields may be defined (32 up from 16) - Use of xarray for architectures with sparse system calls, for the system call trace events.

| * preemptirq_delay_test: Add the burst feature and a sysfs triggerViktor Rosendahl (BMW)2019-11-131-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This burst feature enables the user to generate a burst of preempt/irqsoff latencies. This makes it possible to test whether we are able to detect latencies that systematically occur very close to each other. The maximum burst size is 10. We also create 10 identical test functions, so that we get 10 different backtraces; this is useful when we want to test whether we can detect all the latencies in a burst. Otherwise, there would be no easy way of differentiating between which latency in a burst was captured by the tracer. In addition, there is a sysfs trigger, so that it's not necessary to reload the module to repeat the test. The trigger will appear as /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger in sysfs.

| * ftrace: Add register_ftrace_direct()Steven Rostedt (VMware)2019-11-131-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the start of the functionality to allow other trampolines to use the ftrace mcount/fentry/nop location. This adds two new functions: register_ftrace_direct() and unregister_ftrace_direct() Both take two parameters: the first is the instruction address of where the mcount/fentry/nop exists, and the second is the trampoline to have that location called. This will handle cases where ftrace is already used on that same location, and will make it still work, where the registered direct called trampoline will get called after all the registered ftrace callers are handled. Currently, it will not allow for IP_MODIFY functions to be called at the same locations, which include some kprobes and live kernel patching. At this point, no architecture supports this. This is only the start of implementing the framework. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
