      tracing: Add interface to allow multiple trace buffers · 277ba044
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Add the interface ("instances" directory) to add multiple buffers
      to ftrace. To create a new instance, simply do a mkdir in the
      instances directory:
      
      This will create a directory with the following:
      
       # cd instances
       # mkdir foo
       # ls foo
      buffer_size_kb        free_buffer  trace_clock    trace_pipe
      buffer_total_size_kb  set_event    trace_marker   tracing_enabled
      events/               trace        trace_options  tracing_on
      
      Currently only events are able to be set, and there isn't a way
      to delete a buffer when one is created (yet).
      
      Note, the i_mutex lock is dropped from the parent "instances"
      directory during the mkdir operation. As the "instances" directory
      can not be renamed or deleted (created on boot), I do not see
      any harm in dropping the lock. The creation of the sub directories
      is protected by trace_types_lock mutex, which only lets one
      instance get into the code path at a time. If two tasks try to
      create or delete directories of the same name, only one will occur
      and the other will fail with -EEXIST.

      tracing: Make syscall events suitable for multiple buffers · 12ab74ee
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Currently the syscall events record into the global buffer. But if
      multiple buffers are in place, then we need to have syscall events
      record in the proper buffers.
      
      By adding descriptors to pass to the syscall event functions, the
      syscall events can now record into the buffers that have been assigned
      to them (one event may be applied to mulitple buffers).
      
      This will allow tracing high volume syscalls along with seldom occurring
      syscalls without losing the seldom syscall events.

      Pass the struct ftrace_event_file *ftrace_file to the

      tracing: Encapsulate global_trace and remove dependencies on global vars · 2b6080f2
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      The global_trace variable in kernel/trace/trace.c has been kept 'static' and
      local to that file so that it would not be used too much outside of that
      file. This has paid off, even though there were lots of changes to make
      the trace_array structure more generic (not depending on global_trace).
      
      Removal of a lot of direct usages of global_trace is needed to be able to
      create more trace_arrays such that we can add multiple buffers.

      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Both RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS and TRACE_PIPE_ALL_CPU are defined as
      -1 and used to say that all the ring buffers are to be modified
      or read (instead of just a single cpu, which would be >= 0).
      
      There's no reason to keep TRACE_PIPE_ALL_CPU as it is also started
      to be used for more than what it was created for, and now that
      the ring buffer code added a generic RING_BUFFER_ALL_CPUS define,
      we can clean up the trace code to use that instead and remove
      the TRACE_PIPE_ALL_CPU macro.

      tracing: Separate out trace events from global variables · ae63b31e
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      The trace events for ftrace are all defined via global variables.
      The arrays of events and event systems are linked to a global list.
      This prevents multiple users of the event system (what to enable and
      what not to).
      
      By adding descriptors to represent the event/file relation, as well
      as to which trace_array descriptor they are associated with, allows
      for more than one set of events to be defined. Once the trace events
      files have a link between the trace event and the trace_array they
      are associated with, we can create multiple trace_arrays that can
      record separate events in separate buffers.

      Changing the overwrite mode for the ring buffer via the trace

      tracing: Fix free of probe entry by calling call_rcu_sched() · 740466bc
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      Because function tracing is very invasive, and can even trace
      calls to rcu_read_lock(), RCU access in function tracing is done
      with preempt_disable_notrace(). This requires a synchronize_sched()
      for updates and not a synchronize_rcu().
      
      Function probes (traceon, traceoff, etc) must be freed after
      a synchronize_sched() after its entry has been removed from the
      hash. But call_rcu() is used. Fix this by using call_rcu_sched().
      
      Also fix the usage to use hlist_del_rcu() instead of hlist_del().

      tracing: Fix race in snapshot swapping · 2721e72d
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      Although the swap is wrapped with a spin_lock, the assignment
      of the temp buffer used to swap is not within that lock.
      It needs to be moved into that lock, otherwise two swaps
      happening on two different CPUs, can end up using the wrong
      temp buffer to assign in the swap.
      
      Luckily, all current callers of the swap function appear to have
      their own locks. But in case something is added that allows two
      different callers to call the swap, then there's a chance that
      this race can trigger and corrupt the buffers.
      
      New code is coming soon that will allow for this race to trigger.
      
      I've Cc'd stable, so this bug will not show up if someone backports
      one of the changes that can trigger this bug.

      tracing: Do not return EINVAL in snapshot when not allocated · c9960e48
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      To use the tracing snapshot feature, writing a '1' into the snapshot
      file causes the snapshot buffer to be allocated if it has not already
      been allocated and dose a 'swap' with the main buffer, so that the
      snapshot now contains what was in the main buffer, and the main buffer
      now writes to what was the snapshot buffer.
      
      To free the snapshot buffer, a '0' is written into the snapshot file.
      
      To clear the snapshot buffer, any number but a '0' or '1' is written
      into the snapshot file. But if the file is not allocated it returns
      -EINVAL error code. This is rather pointless. It is better just to
      do nothing and return success.

      tracing: Add help of snapshot feature when snapshot is empty · d8741e2e
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      When cat'ing the snapshot file, instead of showing an empty trace
      header like the trace file does, show how to use the snapshot
      feature.
      
      Also, this is a good place to show if the snapshot has been allocated
      or not. Users may want to "pre allocate" the snapshot to have a fast
      "swap" of the current buffer. Otherwise, a swap would be slow and might
      fail as it would need to allocate the snapshot buffer, and that might
      fail under tight memory constraints.

      Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
       "A lot of reorganization is going on mostly to prepare for worker pools
        with custom attributes so that workqueue can replace custom pool
        implementations in places including writeback and btrfs and make CPU
        assignment in crypto more flexible.
      
        workqueue evolved from purely per-cpu design and implementation, so
        there are a lot of assumptions regarding being bound to CPUs and even
        unbound workqueues are implemented as an extension of the model -
        workqueues running on the special unbound CPU.  Bulk of changes this
        round are about promoting worker_pools as the top level abstraction
        replacing global_cwq (global cpu workqueue).  At this point, I'm
        fairly confident about getting custom worker pools working pretty soon
        and ready for the next merge window.
      
        Lai's patches are replacing the convoluted mb() dancing workqueue has
        been doing with much simpler mechanism which only depends on
        assignment atomicity of long.  For details, please read the commit
        message of 0b3dae68 ("workqueue: simplify is-work-item-queued-here
        test").  While the change ends up adding one pointer to struct
        delayed_work, the inflation in percentage is less than five percent
        and it decouples delayed_work logic a lot more cleaner from usual work
        handling, removes the unusual memory barrier dancing, and allows for
        further simplification, so I think the trade-off is acceptable.
      
        There will be two more workqueue related pull requests and there are
        some shared commits among them.  I'll write further pull requests

       - Support for the Technologic Systems TS-5500 platform, by Vivien
         Didelot
      
       - Improved NUMA support on AMD systems:
      
         Add support for federated systems where multiple memory controllers
         can exist and see each other over multiple PCI domains.  This
         basically means that AMD node ids can be more than 8 now and the code
         handling this is taught to incorporate PCI domain into those IDs.
      
       - Support for the Goldfish virtual Android emulator, by Jun Nakajima,
         Intel, Google, et al.

      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
       "There are lots of improvements, the biggest changes are:
      
        Main kernel side changes:
      
         - Improve uprobes performance by adding 'pre-filtering' support, by
           Oleg Nesterov.
      
         - Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to what was
           done on x86, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu.
      
         - tracing updates by Steve Rostedt - mostly misc fixes and smaller
           improvements.
      
         - Use perf/event tracing to report PCI Express advanced errors, by
           Tony Luck.
      
         - Enable northbridge performance counters on AMD family 15h, by Jacob
           Shin.
      
         - This tracing commit:
      
              tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events
      
           changes the ABI.  All involved parties (PowerTop in particular)
           seem to agree that it's safe to do now with the introduction of
           libtraceevent, but the devil is in the details ...
      
        Main tooling side changes:
      
         - Add 'event group view', from Namyung Kim:
      
           To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording.  And
           then perf report parses the saved group relation from file header
           and prints them together if --group option is provided.  You can
           use the 'perf evlist' command to see event group information:
      
              $ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1
              [ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
              [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ]
      
              $ perf evlist --group
              {ref-cycles,cycles}
      
           With this example, default perf report will show you each event
           separately.
      
           You can use --group option to enable event group view:
      
              $ perf report --group
              ...
              # group: {ref-cycles,cycles}
              # ========

           As you can see the Overhead column now contains both of ref-cycles
           and cycles and header line shows group information also - 'anon
           group { ref-cycles, cycles }'.  The output is sorted by period of
           group leader first.
      
         - Initial GTK+ annotate browser, from Namhyung Kim.
      
         - Add option for runtime switching perf data file in perf report,
           just press 's' and a menu with the valid files found in the current

         - perf build-id cache now can show DSOs present in a perf.data file
           that are not in the cache, to integrate with build-id servers being
           put in place by organizations such as Fedora.
      
         - perf top now shares more of the evsel config/creation routines with
           'record', paving the way for further integration like 'top'
           snapshots, etc.
      
         - perf top now supports DWARF callchains.
      
         - Fix mmap limitations on 32-bit, fix from David Miller.
      
         - 'perf bench numa mem' NUMA performance measurement suite
      
         - ... and lots of fixes, performance improvements, cleanups and other
           improvements I failed to list - see the shortlog and git log for
           details."

      Pull irq core changes from Ingo Molnar:
       "The biggest changes are the IRQ-work and printk changes from Frederic
        Weisbecker, which prepare the code for 'full dynticks' (the ability to
        stop or slow down the periodic tick arbitrarily, not just in idle time
        as today):
      
         - Don't stop tick with irq works pending.  This fix is generally
           useful and concerns archs that can't raise self IPIs.
      
         - Flush irq works before CPU offlining.
      
         - Introduce "lazy" irq works that can wait for the next tick to be
           executed, unless it's stopped.
      
         - Implement klogd wake up using irq work.  This removes the ad-hoc
           printk_tick()/printk_needs_cpu() hooks and make it working even in
           dynticks mode.
      
         - Cleanups and fixes."

      workqueue: un-GPL function delayed_work_timer_fn() · 1438ade5
      Konstantin Khlebnikov 提交于
      commit d8e794df ("workqueue: set
      delayed_work->timer function on initialization") exports function
      delayed_work_timer_fn() only for GPL modules. This makes delayed-works
      unusable for non-GPL modules, because initialization macro now requires
      GPL symbol. For example schedule_delayed_work() available for non-GPL.
