Drop the waittime field from the lock_acquired event, we can calculate it by substracting the lock_acquired event timestamp with the matching lock_acquire one.

Compiling powerpc64 results in: include/trace/events/timer.h:279: warning: format '%lu' expects type 'long unsigned int', but argument 4 has type 'cputime_t' .... cputime_t on power is u64, which triggers the above warning.

It is not quite obvious at first sight what TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE does: does it define an event as well beyond defining a template? To clarify this, rename it to DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS, which follows the various 'DECLARE_*()' idioms we already have in the kernel: DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS(class) DEFINE_EVENT(class, event1) DEFINE_EVENT(class, event2) DEFINE_EVENT(class, event3) To complete this logic we should also rename TRACE_EVENT() to: DEFINE_SINGLE_EVENT(single_event) ... but in a more quiet moment of the kernel cycle.

The current syscall tracer mixes raw syscalls and real syscalls. echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable And we get these from the output: (XXXX insteads " grep-20914 [001] 588211.446347" .. etc) XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: 80609a8, count: 7000) XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (3, 80609a8, 7000, a, 1000, bfce8ef8) XXXX: sys_read -> 0x138 XXXX: sys_exit: NR 3 = 312 XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: 8060ae0, count: 7000) XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (3, 8060ae0, 7000, a, 1000, bfce8ef8) XXXX: sys_read -> 0x138 XXXX: sys_exit: NR 3 = 312 There are 2 drawbacks here. A) two almost identical records are saved in ringbuffer when a syscall enters or exits. (4 records for every syscall) This wastes precious space in the ring buffer. B) the lines including "sys_enter/sys_exit" produces hardly any useful information for the output (no labels). The user can use this method to prevent these drawbacks: echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable echo 0 > events/syscalls/sys_enter/enable echo 0 > events/syscalls/sys_exit/enable But this is not user friendly. So we separate raw syscall from syscall tracer. After this fix applied: syscall tracer's output (echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable): XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: bfe87d88, count: 200) XXXX: sys_read -> 0x200 XXXX: sys_fstat64(fd: 3, statbuf: bfe87c98) XXXX: sys_fstat64 -> 0x0 XXXX: sys_close(fd: 3) raw syscall tracer's output (echo 1 > events/raw_syscalls/enable): XXXX: sys_enter: NR 175 (0, bf92bf18, bf92bf98, 8, b748cff4, bf92bef8) XXXX: sys_exit: NR 175 = 0 XXXX: sys_enter: NR 175 (2, bf92bf98, 0, 8, b748cff4, bf92bef8) XXXX: sys_exit: NR 175 = 0 XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (9, bf927f9c, 4000, b77e2518, b77dce60, bf92bff8) Signed-off-by: NLai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> LKML-Reference: <4AEFC37C.5080609@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The trace events converted to DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT: sched_stat_sleep and sched_stat_iowait. Note, since the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE always uses a print, the sched_stat_wait print format is defined in the template and this template is used by sched_stat_sleep and sched_stat_iowait. But the later two override the print format. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Add the facility for ext4_forget() to be called from ext4_free_blocks(). This simplifies the code in a large number of places, and centralizes most of the work of calling ext4_forget() into a single place. Also fix a bug in the extents migration code; it wasn't calling ext4_forget() when releasing the indirect blocks during the conversion. As a result, if the system cashed during or shortly after the extents migration, and the released indirect blocks get reused as data blocks, the journal replay would corrupt the data blocks. With this new patch, fixing this bug was as simple as adding the EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_FORGET flags to the call to ext4_free_blocks().

Lockdep events subsystem gathers various locking related events such as a request, release, contention or acquisition of a lock. The name of this event subsystem is a bit of a misnomer since these events are not quite related to lockdep but more generally to locking, ie: these events are not reporting lock dependencies or possible deadlock scenario but pure locking events. Hence this rename.

Now that we can filter based on fields via perf record, people will start using filter expressions and will expect them to be obvious. The primary way to see which fields are available is by looking at the trace output, such as: gcc-18676 [000] 343.011728: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.012727: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.032692: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.033690: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.034687: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.035686: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer cc1-18677 [000] 343.036684: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer While 'irq==0' filters work, the 'handler==<x>' filter expression does not work: $ perf record -R -f -a -e irq:irq_handler_entry --filter handler=timer sleep 1 Error: failed to set filter with 22 (Invalid argument) The problem is that while an 'irq' field exists and is recognized as a filter field - 'handler' does not exist - its name is 'name' in the output. To solve this, we need to synchronize the printout and the field names, wherever possible. In cases where the printout prints a non-field, we enclose that information in square brackets, such as: perf-1380 [013] 724.903505: softirq_exit: vec=9 [action=RCU] perf-1380 [013] 724.904482: softirq_exit: vec=1 [action=TIMER] This way users can use filter expressions more intuitively: all fields that show up as 'primary' (non-bracketed) information is filterable. This patch harmonizes the field names for all irq, bkl, power, sched and timer events. We might in fact think about dropping the print format bit of generic tracepoints altogether, and just print the fields that are being recorded.

This approach is the first baby step towards solving many of the structural problems the x86 MCE logging code is having today: - It has a private ring-buffer implementation that has a number of limitations and has been historically fragile and buggy. - It is using a quirky /dev/mcelog ioctl driven ABI that is MCE specific. /dev/mcelog is not part of any larger logging framework and hence has remained on the fringes for many years. - The MCE logging code is still very unclean partly due to its ABI limitations. Fields are being reused for multiple purposes, and the whole message structure is limited and x86 specific to begin with. All in one, the x86 tree would like to move away from this private implementation of an event logging facility to a broader framework. By using perf events we gain the following advantages: - Multiple user-space agents can access MCE events. We can have an mcelog daemon running but also a system-wide tracer capturing important events in flight-recorder mode. - Sampling support: the kernel and the user-space call-chain of MCE events can be stored and analyzed as well. This way actual patterns of bad behavior can be matched to precisely what kind of activity happened in the kernel (and/or in the app) around that moment in time. - Coupling with other hardware and software events: the PMU can track a number of other anomalies - monitoring software might chose to monitor those plus the MCE events as well - in one coherent stream of events. - Discovery of MCE sources - tracepoints are enumerated and tools can act upon the existence (or non-existence) of various channels of MCE information. - Filtering support: we just subscribe to and act upon the events we are interested in. Then even on a per event source basis there's in-kernel filter expressions available that can restrict the amount of data that hits the event channel. - Arbitrary deep per cpu buffering of events - we can buffer 32 entries or we can buffer as much as we want, as long as we have the RAM. - An NMI-safe ring-buffer implementation - mappable to user-space. - Built-in support for timestamping of events, PID markers, CPU markers, etc. - A rich ABI accessible over system call interface. Per cpu, per task and per workload monitoring of MCE events can be done this way. The ABI itself has a nice, meaningful structure. - Extensible ABI: new fields can be added without breaking tooling. New tracepoints can be added as the hardware side evolves. There's various parsers that can be used. - Lots of scheduling/buffering/batching modes of operandi for MCE events. poll() support. mmap() support. read() support. You name it. - Rich tooling support: even without any MCE specific extensions added the 'perf' tool today offers various views of MCE data: perf report, perf stat, perf trace can all be used to view logged MCE events and perhaps correlate them to certain user-space usage patterns. But it can be used directly as well, for user-space agents and policy action in mcelog, etc. With this we hope to achieve significant code cleanup and feature improvements in the MCE code, and we hope to be able to drop the /dev/mcelog facility in the end. This patch is just a plain dumb dump of mce_log() records to the tracepoints / perf events framework - a first proof of concept step.

Since 2.6.31 now has request-based device-mapper, it's useful to have a tracepoint for request-remapping as well as bio-remapping. This patch adds a tracepoint for request-remapping, trace_block_rq_remap().

The tracepoint ext4_da_write_pages has a struct mpage_da_data* parameter, but that struct is only defined in fs/ext4/ext4.h. This patch adds a forward declaration for that struct, so this tracepoint header can still be used by tools like SystemTap. This is a continuation of the fix in commit 3661d286. http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10703Signed-off-by: NJosh Stone <jistone@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: N"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

The /proc/fs/jbd2/<dev>/history was maintained manually; by using tracepoints, we can get all of the existing functionality of the /proc file plus extra capabilities thanks to the ftrace infrastructure. We save memory as a bonus. Signed-off-by: N"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

The /proc/fs/ext4/<dev>/mb_history was maintained manually, and had a number of problems: it required a largish amount of memory to be allocated for each ext4 filesystem, and the s_mb_history_lock introduced a CPU contention problem. By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4 tracepoints, etc. Signed-off-by: N"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Work around problems in the writeback code to force out writebacks in larger chunks than just 4mb, which is just too small. This also works around limitations in the ext4 block allocator, which can't allocate more than 2048 blocks at a time. So we need to defeat the round-robin characteristics of the writeback code and try to write out as many blocks in one inode before allowing the writeback code to move on to another inode. We add a a new per-filesystem tunable, max_writeback_mb_bump, which caps this to a default of 128mb per inode. Signed-off-by: N"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

Add two events lock_kernel and unlock_kernel() to trace the bkl uses. This opens the door for userspace tools to perform statistics about the callsites that use it, dependencies with other locks (by pairing the trace with lock events), use with recursivity and so on... The {__reacquire,release}_kernel_lock() events are not traced because these are called from schedule, thus the sched events are sufficient to trace them. Example of a trace: hald-addon-stor-4152 [000] 165.875501: unlock_kernel: depth: 0, fs/block_dev.c:1358 __blkdev_put() hald-addon-stor-4152 [000] 167.832974: lock_kernel: depth: 0, fs/block_dev.c:1167 __blkdev_get() How to get the callsites that acquire it recursively: cd /debug/tracing/events/bkl echo "lock_depth > 0" > filter firefox-4951 [001] 206.276967: unlock_kernel: depth: 1, fs/reiserfs/super.c:575 reiserfs_dirty_inode() You can also filter by file and/or line. v2: Use of FILTER_PTR_STRING attribute for files and lines fields to make them traceable.

Using %pf instead of %pF supresses printing of the function offset which will always be 0 in the case of worklet functions.
