* [PATCH] kill d_alloc_anonChristoph Hellwig2008-10-231-1/+0

* [PATCH] new helper: d_obtain_aliasChristoph Hellwig2008-10-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The calling conventions of d_alloc_anon are rather unfortunate for all users, and it's name is not very descriptive either. Add d_obtain_alias as a new exported helper that drops the inode reference in the failure case, too and allows to pass-through NULL pointers and inodes to allow for tail-calls in the export operations. Incidentally this helper already existed as a private function in libfs.c as exportfs_d_alloc so kill that one and switch the callers to d_obtain_alias.

| * | PCI: introduce an pci_ioremap(pdev, barnr) functionArjan van de Ven2008-10-201-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A common thing in many PCI drivers is to ioremap() an entire bar. This is a slightly fragile thing right now, needing both an address and a size, and many driver writers do.. various things there. This patch introduces an pci_ioremap() function taking just a PCI device struct and the bar number as arguments, and figures this all out itself, in one place. In addition, we can add various sanity checks to this function (the patch already checks to make sure that the bar in question really is a MEM bar; few to no drivers do that sort of thing). Hopefully with this type of API we get less chance of mistakes in drivers with ioremap() operations.

To allow drivers to overcome this problem, introduce function pci_wake_from_d3() that will enable the device to wake up the system from any of D3_hot and D3_cold as long as the wake-up from at least one of them is supported.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver flag dynids.use_driver_data is almost consistently not set, and causes more problems than it solves. It was initially intended as a flag to indicate whether a driver's usage of driver_data had been carefully inspected and was ready for values from userspace. That audit was never done, so most drivers just get a 0 for driver_data when new IDs are added from userspace via sysfs. So remove the flag, allowing drivers to see the data directly (a followon patch validates the passed driver_data value against what the drivers expect).

That's because these functions will disappear from the .init section and also their name from the symbols table.

This patch does a new design to be partially lockless on writes. Writes will add new entries to the per cpu pages by simply disabling interrupts. When a write needs to go to another page than it will grab the lock. A new "read page" has been added so that the reader can pull out a page from the ring buffer to read without worrying about the writer writing over it. This allows us to not take the lock for all reads. The lock is now only taken when a read needs to go to a new page. This is far from lockless, and interrupts still need to be disabled, but it is a step towards a more lockless solution, and it also solves a lot of the issues that were noticed by the first conversion of ftrace to the ring buffers. Note: the ring_buffer_{un}lock API has been removed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The events recorded into the buffer have the following structure: struct ring_buffer_event { u32 type:2, len:3, time_delta:27; u32 array[]; }; The minimum size of an event is 8 bytes. All events are 4 byte aligned inside the buffer. There are 4 types (all internal use for the ring buffer, only the data type is exported to the interface users). RINGBUF_TYPE_PADDING: this type is used to note extra space at the end of a buffer page. RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_EXTENT: This type is used when the time between events is greater than the 27 bit delta can hold. We add another 32 bits, and record that in its own event (8 byte size). RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP: (Not implemented yet). This will hold data to help keep the buffer timestamps in sync. RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA: The event actually holds user data. The "len" field is only three bits. Since the data must be 4 byte aligned, this field is shifted left by 2, giving a max length of 28 bytes. If the data load is greater than 28 bytes, the first array field holds the full length of the data load and the len field is set to zero. Example, data size of 7 bytes: type = RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA len = 2 time_delta: <time-stamp> - <prev_event-time-stamp> array[0..1]: <7 bytes of data> <1 byte empty> This event is saved in 12 bytes of the buffer. An event with 82 bytes of data: type = RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA len = 0 time_delta: <time-stamp> - <prev_event-time-stamp> array[0]: 84 (Note the alignment) array[1..14]: <82 bytes of data> <2 bytes empty> The above event is saved in 92 bytes (if my math is correct). 82 bytes of data, 2 bytes empty, 4 byte header, 4 byte length. Do not reference the above event struct directly. Use the following functions to gain access to the event table, since the ring_buffer_event structure may change in the future. ring_buffer_event_length(event): get the length of the event. This is the size of the memory used to record this event, and not the size of the data pay load. ring_buffer_time_delta(event): get the time delta of the event This returns the delta time stamp since the last event. Note: Even though this is in the header, there should be no reason to access this directly, accept for debugging. ring_buffer_event_data(event): get the data from the event This is the function to use to get the actual data from the event. Note, it is only a pointer to the data inside the buffer. This data must be copied to another location otherwise you risk it being written over in the buffer. ring_buffer_lock: A way to lock the entire buffer. ring_buffer_unlock: unlock the buffer. ring_buffer_alloc: create a new ring buffer. Can choose between overwrite or consumer/producer mode. Overwrite will overwrite old data, where as consumer producer will throw away new data if the consumer catches up with the producer. The consumer/producer is the default. ring_buffer_free: free the ring buffer. ring_buffer_resize: resize the buffer. Changes the size of each cpu buffer. Note, it is up to the caller to provide that the buffer is not being used while this is happening. This requirement may go away but do not count on it. ring_buffer_lock_reserve: locks the ring buffer and allocates an entry on the buffer to write to. ring_buffer_unlock_commit: unlocks the ring buffer and commits it to the buffer. ring_buffer_write: writes some data into the ring buffer. ring_buffer_peek: Look at a next item in the cpu buffer. ring_buffer_consume: get the next item in the cpu buffer and consume it. That is, this function increments the head pointer. ring_buffer_read_start: Start an iterator of a cpu buffer. For now, this disables the cpu buffer, until you issue a finish. This is just because we do not want the iterator to be overwritten. This restriction may change in the future. But note, this is used for static reading of a buffer which is usually done "after" a trace. Live readings would want to use the ring_buffer_consume above, which will not disable the ring buffer. ring_buffer_read_finish: Finishes the read iterator and reenables the ring buffer. ring_buffer_iter_peek: Look at the next item in the cpu iterator. ring_buffer_read: Read the iterator and increment it. ring_buffer_iter_reset: Reset the iterator to point to the beginning of the cpu buffer. ring_buffer_iter_empty: Returns true if the iterator is at the end of the cpu buffer. ring_buffer_size: returns the size in bytes of each cpu buffer. Note, the real size is this times the number of CPUs. ring_buffer_reset_cpu: Sets the cpu buffer to empty ring_buffer_reset: sets all cpu buffers to empty ring_buffer_swap_cpu: swaps a cpu buffer from one buffer with a cpu buffer of another buffer. This is handy when you want to take a snap shot of a running trace on just one cpu. Having a backup buffer, to swap with facilitates this. Ftrace max latencies use this. ring_buffer_empty: Returns true if the ring buffer is empty. ring_buffer_empty_cpu: Returns true if the cpu buffer is empty. ring_buffer_record_disable: disable all cpu buffers (read only) ring_buffer_record_disable_cpu: disable a single cpu buffer (read only) ring_buffer_record_enable: enable all cpu buffers. ring_buffer_record_enabl_cpu: enable a single cpu buffer. ring_buffer_entries: The number of entries in a ring buffer. ring_buffer_overruns: The number of entries removed due to writing wrap. ring_buffer_time_stamp: Get the time stamp used by the ring buffer ring_buffer_normalize_time_stamp: normalize the ring buffer time stamp into nanosecs. I still need to implement the GTOD feature. But we need support from the cpu frequency infrastructure. But this can be done at a later time without affecting the ring buffer interface.

It's primary purpose is to be able to trace the initcalls. It is intended to be used with scripts/bootgraph.pl after some small improvements. Note that it is not active after its init. To avoid tracing (and so crashing) before the whole tracing engine init, you have to explicitly call start_boot_trace() after do_pre_smp_initcalls() to enable it.

Usually one would expect to uses kexec and examine the buffers after a new kernel is loaded. But sometimes the resources do not permit kdump and kexec, so having an option to still see the sequence of events up to the crash is very advantageous. This patch adds the option to have the ftrace buffers dumped to the console in the latency_trace format on a panic. When the option is set, the default entries per CPU buffer are lowered to 16384, since the writing to the serial (if that is the console) may take an awful long time otherwise. [ Changes since -v1: Got alpine to send correctly (as well as spell check working). Removed config option. Moved the static variables into ftrace_dump itself.

The entry size in the buffers are still a fixed length. A new type has been added that allows for more entries to be used for a single recording. The start of the print is still the same as the other entries. It returns the number of characters written to the ftrace buffer. For example: Having a module with the following code: static int __init ftrace_print_test(void) { ftrace_printk("jiffies are %ld\n", jiffies); return 0; } Gives me: insmod-5441 3...1 7569us : ftrace_print_test: jiffies are 4296626666 for the latency_trace file and: insmod-5441 [03] 1959.370498: ftrace_print_test jiffies are 4296626666 for the trace file. Note: Only the infrastructure should go into the kernel. It is to help facilitate debugging for other kernel developers. Calls to ftrace_printk is not intended to be left in the kernel, and should be frowned upon just like scattering printks around in the code. But having this easily at your fingertips helps the debugging go faster and bugs be solved quicker. Maybe later on, we can hook this with markers and have their printf format be sucked into ftrace output. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
| * | | ftrace: remove old pointers to mcountSteven Rostedt2008-10-142-1/+3

If the code is removed via removing a module, the pointers still exist. At modifying the code a check is always made to make sure the code being replaced is the code expected. In-other-words, the code being replaced is compared to what it is expected to be before being replaced. There is a very small chance that the code being replaced just happens to look like code that calls mcount (very small since the call to mcount is relative). To remove this chance, this patch adds ftrace_release to allow module unloading to remove the pointers to mcount within the module. Another change for init calls is made to not trace calls marked with __init. The tracing can not be started until after init is done anyway.

This will hold a list of pointers to the mcount relocation for each call site of mcount. For example: objdump -dr init/main.o [...] Disassembly of section .text: 0000000000000000 <do_one_initcall>: 0: 55 push %rbp [...] 000000000000017b <init_post>: 17b: 55 push %rbp 17c: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp 17f: 53 push %rbx 180: 48 83 ec 08 sub $0x8,%rsp 184: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 189 <init_post+0xe> 185: R_X86_64_PC32 mcount+0xfffffffffffffffc [...] We will add a section to point to each function call. .section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits [...] .quad .text + 0x185 [...] The offset to of the mcount call site in init_post is an offset from the start of the section, and not the start of the function init_post. The mcount relocation is at the call site 0x185 from the start of the .text section. .text + 0x185 == init_post + 0xa We need a way to add this __mcount_loc section in a way that we do not lose the relocations after final link. The .text section here will be attached to all other .text sections after final link and the offsets will be meaningless. We need to keep track of where these .text sections are. To do this, we use the start of the first function in the section. do_one_initcall. We can make a tmp.s file with this function as a reference to the start of the .text section. .section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits [...] .quad do_one_initcall + 0x185 [...] Then we can compile the tmp.s into a tmp.o gcc -c tmp.s -o tmp.o And link it into back into main.o. ld -r main.o tmp.o -o tmp_main.o mv tmp_main.o main.o But we have a problem. What happens if the first function in a section is not exported, and is a static function. The linker will not let the tmp.o use it. This case exists in main.o as well. Disassembly of section .init.text: 0000000000000000 <set_reset_devices>: 0: 55 push %rbp 1: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp 4: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 9 <set_reset_devices+0x9> 5: R_X86_64_PC32 mcount+0xfffffffffffffffc The first function in .init.text is a static function. 00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices 000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices 0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices The lowercase 't' means that set_reset_devices is local and is not exported. If we simply try to link the tmp.o with the set_reset_devices we end up with two symbols: one local and one global. .section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits .quad set_reset_devices + 0x10 00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices 000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices 0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices U set_reset_devices We still have an undefined reference to set_reset_devices, and if we try to compile the kernel, we will end up with an undefined reference to set_reset_devices, or even worst, it could be exported someplace else, and then we will have a reference to the wrong location. To handle this case, we make an intermediate step using objcopy. We convert set_reset_devices into a global exported symbol before linking it with tmp.o and set it back afterwards. 00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices 000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices 0000000000000000 T set_reset_devices 00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices 000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices 0000000000000000 T set_reset_devices 00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices 000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices 0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices Now we have a section in main.o called __mcount_loc that we can place somewhere in the kernel using vmlinux.ld.S and access it to convert all these locations that call mcount into nops before starting SMP and thus, eliminating the need to do this with kstop_machine. Note, A well documented perl script (scripts/recordmcount.pl) is used to do all this in one location. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
