* tracing: Prevent build warning: 'ftrace_graph_buf' defined but not usedLai Jiangshan2009-11-171-1/+1

* ring-buffer: Move access to commit_page up into function usedSteven Rostedt2009-11-171-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | With the change of the way we process commits. Where a commit only happens at the outer most level, and that we don't need to worry about a commit ending after the rb_start_commit() has been called, the code use to grab the commit page before the tail page to prevent a possible race. But this race no longer exists with the rb_start_commit() rb_end_commit() interface. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* tracing: do not disable interrupts for trace_clock_localSteven Rostedt2009-11-111-3/+5

The trace time also goes from 210ns down to 179ns (31ns). I talked with Peter Zijlstra about the impact that sched_clock may have without having interrupts disabled, and he told me that if a timer interrupt comes in, sched_clock may report a wrong time. Balancing a seldom incorrect timestamp with a 15% performance boost, I'll take the performance boost.

* ring-buffer: Add multiple iterations between benchmark timestampsSteven Rostedt2009-11-111-9/+16

This adds the overhead of the call to gettimeofday to the measurements and does not give an accurate picture of the length of time it takes to record a trace. This was first noticed with perf top: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PerfTop: 679 irqs/sec kernel:99.9% [1000Hz cpu-clock-msecs], (all, 4 CPUs) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ samples pcnt kernel function _______ _____ _______________ 1673.00 - 27.8% : trace_clock_local 806.00 - 13.4% : do_gettimeofday 590.00 - 9.8% : rb_reserve_next_event 554.00 - 9.2% : native_read_tsc 431.00 - 7.2% : ring_buffer_lock_reserve 365.00 - 6.1% : __rb_reserve_next 355.00 - 5.9% : rb_end_commit 322.00 - 5.4% : getnstimeofday 268.00 - 4.5% : ring_buffer_unlock_commit 262.00 - 4.4% : ring_buffer_producer_thread [ring_buffer_benchmark] 113.00 - 1.9% : read_tsc 91.00 - 1.5% : debug_smp_processor_id 69.00 - 1.1% : trace_recursive_unlock 66.00 - 1.1% : ring_buffer_event_data 25.00 - 0.4% : _spin_unlock_irq And the length of each write to the ring buffer measured at 310ns. This patch adds a new module parameter called "write_interval" which is defaulted to 50. This is the number of writes performed between timestamps.

* kprobes: Sanitize struct kretprobe_instance allocationsAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli2009-11-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For as long as kretprobes have existed, we've allocated NR_CPUS instances of kretprobe_instance structures. With the default value of CONFIG_NR_CPUS increasing on certain architectures, we are potentially wasting kernel memory. See http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10839#c3 for more details. Use a saner num_possible_cpus() instead of NR_CPUS for allocation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | trace_seq_printf() return value is a little ambiguous. It currently returns the length of the space available in the buffer. printf usually returns the amount written. This is not adequate here, because: trace_seq_printf(s, ""); is perfectly legal, and returning 0 would indicate that it failed. We can always see the amount written by looking at the before and after values of s->len. This is not quite the same use as printf. We only care if the string was successfully written to the buffer or not. Make trace_seq_printf() return 0 if the trace oversizes the buffer's free space, 1 otherwise.

This can be greatly simplified by having each CPU relinquish its own callbacks, and for both _rcu_barrier() and CPU_DEAD notifiers to adopt all callbacks that were previously relinquished. This change also eliminates the possibility of certain types of hangs due to the previous practice of waiting for callbacks to be invoked from within CPU notifiers. If you don't every wait, you cannot hang. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

This group improves an existing abstraction and introduces two new ones. It also fixes an RCU stall-warning bug found while making the other changes. o Make RCU_INIT_FLAVOR() declare its own variables, removing the need to declare them at each call site. o Create an rcu_for_each_leaf() macro that scans the leaf nodes of the rcu_node tree. o Create an rcu_for_each_node_breadth_first() macro that does a breadth-first traversal of the rcu_node tree, AKA stepping through the array in index-number order. o If all CPUs corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node structure go offline, then any tasks queued on that leaf will be moved to the root rcu_node structure. Therefore, the stall-warning code must dump out tasks queued on the root rcu_node structure as well as those queued on the leaf rcu_node structures. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
