* core_kernel_data(): Fix architectures that do not define _sdataIngo Molnar2011-05-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some architectures such as Alpha do not define _sdata but _data: kernel/built-in.o: In function `core_kernel_data': kernel/extable.c:77: undefined reference to `_sdata' So expand the scope of the data range to the text addresses too, this might be more correct anyway because this way we can cover readonly variables as well.

* ftrace: Add self-tests for multiple function trace usersSteven Rostedt2011-05-183-1/+217

* ftrace: Modify ftrace_set_filter/notrace to take opsSteven Rostedt2011-05-182-4/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. The functions ftrace_set_global_filter() and ftrace_set_global_notrace() is added to keep the old filter functions which are used to modify the generic function tracers.

* ftrace: Allow dynamically allocated function tracersSteven Rostedt2011-05-182-7/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: Implement separate user function filteringSteven Rostedt2011-05-185-38/+160
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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. A empty hash for the functions they want to trace denotes all functions should be traced that are not in the notrace hash. Cc: Paul E.

| | | | | | | | | When a hash is modified and might be in use, we need to perform a schedule RCU operation on it, as the hashes will soon be used directly in the function tracer callback. Cc: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Have global_ops store the functions that are to be tracedSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-16/+53
| | | | | | | | | This is a step towards each ops structure defining its own set of functions to trace. As the current code with pid's and such are specific to the global_ops, it is restructured to be used with the global ops. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

| | | | | | | | In order to allow different ops to enable different functions, the ftrace_startup() and ftrace_shutdown() functions need the ops parameter passed to them. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Add enabled_functions fileSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-2/+49
| | | | | | | | | Add the enabled_functions file that is used to show all the functions that have been enabled for tracing as well as their ref counts. This helps seeing if any function has been registered and what functions are being traced. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Use counters to enable functions to traceSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-16/+142
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>
* ftrace: Separate hash allocation and assignmentSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-42/+233
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When filtering, allocate a hash to insert the function records. After the filtering is complete, assign it to the ftrace_ops structure. This allows the ftrace_ops structure to have a much smaller array of hash buckets instead of wasting a lot of memory. A read only empty_hash is created to be the minimum size that any ftrace_ops can point to. When a new hash is created, it has the following steps: o Allocate a default hash. o Walk the function records assigning the filtered records to the hash o Allocate a new hash with the appropriate size buckets o Move the entries from the default hash to the new hash.

* ftrace: Create a global_ops to hold the filter and notrace hashesSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-19/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Combine the filter and notrace hashes to be accessed by a single entity, the global_ops. 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. The ftrace_ops structure was modified to hold a filter and notrace hashes so that later patches may allow each ftrace_ops to have its own set of rules to what functions may be filtered.

* ftrace: Use hash instead for FTRACE_FL_FILTERSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-82/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When multiple users are allowed to have their own set of functions to trace, having the FTRACE_FL_FILTER flag will not be enough to handle the accounting of those users. Each user will need their own set of functions. Replace the FTRACE_FL_FILTER with a filter_hash instead. This is temporary until the rest of the function filtering accounting gets in. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ftrace: Replace FTRACE_FL_NOTRACE flag with a hash of ignored functionsSteven Rostedt2011-05-181-26/+150
| | | | | | | | | | | | To prepare for the accounting system that will allow multiple users of the function tracer, having the FTRACE_FL_NOTRACE as a flag in the dyn_trace record does not make sense. All ftrace_ops will soon have a hash of functions they should trace and not trace. By making a global hash of functions not to trace makes this easier for the transition.

Right after, the tracee can be killed and thus its breakpoints released. This can happen concurrently when the tracer is in the middle of reading or modifying these breakpoints, leading to dereferencing a freed pointer. Hence, to prepare the fix, create a generic breakpoint reference holding API. When a reference on the breakpoints of a task is held, the breakpoints won't be released until the last reference is dropped. After that, no more ptrace request on the task's breakpoints can be serviced for the tracer.

That commit changed the structure layout of the trace structure, which in turn broke PowerTOP (1.9x generation) quite badly. I appreciate not wanting to expose the variable in question, and PowerTOP was not using it, so I've replaced the variable with just a padding field - that way if in the future a new field is needed it can just use this padding field.

While not entirely correct this worked because hrtimer_init() only accessed statically initialized data (hrtimer_bases.clock_base[CLOCK_MONOTONIC]) Commit e06383db9 (hrtimers: extend hrtimer base code to handle more then 2 clockids) added an indirection to the hrtimer_bases.clock_base lookup to avoid gap handling in the hot path. The table which is used for the translataion from CLOCK_ID to HRTIMER_BASE index is initialized at runtime in hrtimers_init(). So the early call of the scheduler code translates CLOCK_MONOTONIC to HRTIMER_BASE_REALTIME. Thus the rt_bandwith timer ends up on CLOCK_REALTIME. If the timer is armed and the wall clock time is set (e.g. ntpdate in the early boot process - which also gives the problem deterministic behaviour i.e. magic recovery after N hours), then the timer ends up with an expiry time far into the future. That breaks the RT throttler mechanism as rt runtime is accumulated and never cleared, so the rt throttler detects a false cpu hog condition and blocks all RT tasks until the timer finally expires. That in turn stalls the RCU thread of TINYRCU which leads to an huge amount of RCU callbacks piling up. Make the translation table statically initialized, so we are back to the status of <= 2.6.39.

However, commit 40dc166cb5dddbd36aa4ad11c03915ea (PM / Core: Introduce struct syscore_ops for core subsystems PM) failed to add syscore_suspend() and syscore_resume() calls to that code, which generally leads to breakage when the features in question are used. To fix this problem, add the missing syscore_suspend() and syscore_resume() calls to arch/x86/kernel/apm_32.c, kernel/kexec.c and drivers/xen/manage.c. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

In this way, jump labels become really easy to use: Define: struct jump_label_key jump_key; Can be used as: if (static_branch(&jump_key)) do unlikely code enable/disale via: jump_label_inc(&jump_key); jump_label_dec(&jump_key); that's it! For the jump labels disabled case, the static_branch() becomes an atomic_read(), and jump_label_inc()/dec() are simply atomic_inc(), atomic_dec() operations. We show testing results for this change below. Thanks to H. Peter Anvin for suggesting the 'static_branch()' construct. Since we now require a 'struct jump_label_key *key', we can store a pointer into the jump table addresses. In this way, we can enable/disable jump labels, in basically constant time. This change allows us to completely remove the previous hashtable scheme. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for this re-write.

The issue is also easily reproduced by running ltp stress test. (ftrace_stress_test.sh) The reasons are: - bin/hex/raw output functions for events are set to trace_nop_print function, which prints nothing and returns TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED value - LOST EVENT trace do not handle trace_seq overflow These reasons force the while loop in tracing_read_pipe function never to break. The attached patch fixies handling of lost event trace, and changes trace_nop_print to print minimal info, which is needed for the correct tracing_read_pipe processing. v2 changes: - omit the cond_resched changes by trace_nop_print changes - WARN changed to WARN_ONCE and added info to be able to find out the culprit v3 changes: - make more accurate patch comment Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> LKML-Reference: <20110325110518.GC1922@jolsa.brq.redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
| * | | | tracing: Print trace_bprintk() formats for modules tooSteven Rostedt2011-04-041-6/+97

This is because trace_bprintk() does not store the format into the buffer, but just the address of the format, which is hidden in the kernel memory. But currently it only exports trace_bprintk()s from the kernel core and not for modules. The modules need their formats exported as well. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
