      fault-injection: add ability to export fault_attr in arbitrary directory · dd48c085
      Akinobu Mita 提交于
      init_fault_attr_dentries() is used to export fault_attr via debugfs.
      But it can only export it in debugfs root directory.
      
      Per Forlin is working on mmc_fail_request which adds support to inject
      data errors after a completed host transfer in MMC subsystem.
      
      The fault_attr for mmc_fail_request should be defined per mmc host and
      export it in debugfs directory per mmc host like
      /sys/kernel/debug/mmc0/mmc_fail_request.
      
      init_fault_attr_dentries() doesn't help for mmc_fail_request.  So this
      introduces fault_create_debugfs_attr() which is able to create a
      directory in the arbitrary directory and replace
      init_fault_attr_dentries().

      debugfs: Fix terminology inconsistency of dir name to mount debugfs filesystem. · 156f5a78
      GeunSik Lim 提交于
      Many developers use "/debug/" or "/debugfs/" or "/sys/kernel/debug/"
      directory name to mount debugfs filesystem for ftrace according to
      ./Documentation/tracers/ftrace.txt file.
      
      And, three directory names(ex:/debug/, /debugfs/, /sys/kernel/debug/) is
      existed in kernel source like ftrace, DRM, Wireless, Documentation,
      Network[sky2]files to mount debugfs filesystem.
      
      debugfs means debug filesystem for debugging easy to use by greg kroah
      hartman. "/sys/kernel/debug/" name is suitable as directory name
      of debugfs filesystem.
      - debugfs related reference: http://lwn.net/Articles/334546/
      
      Fix inconsistency of directory name to mount debugfs filesystem.

      [PATCH] fault injection: stacktrace filtering · 329409ae
      Akinobu Mita 提交于
      This patch provides stacktrace filtering feature.
      
      The stacktrace filter allows failing only for the caller you are
      interested in.
      
      For example someone may want to inject kmalloc() failures into
      only e100 module. they want to inject not only direct kmalloc() call,
      but also indirect allocation, too.
      
      - e100_poll --> netif_receive_skb --> packet_rcv_spkt --> skb_clone
        --> kmem_cache_alloc
      
      This patch enables to detect function calls like this by stacktrace
      and inject failures. The script Documentaion/fault-injection/failmodule.sh
      helps it.
      
      The range of text section of loaded e100 is expected to be
      [/sys/module/e100/sections/.text, /sys/module/e100/sections/.exit.text)
      
      So failmodule.sh stores these values into /debug/failslab/address-start
      and /debug/failslab/address-end. The maximum stacktrace depth is specified
      by /debug/failslab/stacktrace-depth.
      
      Please see the example that demonstrates how to inject slab allocation
      failures only for a specific module
      in Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt

      [PATCH] fault-injection capability for kmalloc · 8a8b6502
      Akinobu Mita 提交于
      This patch provides fault-injection capability for kmalloc.
      
      Boot option:
      
      failslab=<interval>,<probability>,<space>,<times>
      
      	<interval> -- specifies the interval of failures.
      
      	<probability> -- specifies how often it should fail in percent.
      
      	<space> -- specifies the size of free space where memory can be
      		   allocated safely in bytes.
      
      	<times> -- specifies how many times failures may happen at most.
      
      Debugfs:
      
      /debug/failslab/interval
      /debug/failslab/probability
      /debug/failslab/specifies
      /debug/failslab/times
      /debug/failslab/ignore-gfp-highmem
      /debug/failslab/ignore-gfp-wait
      
      Example:
      
      	failslab=10,100,0,-1
      
      slab allocation (kmalloc(), kmem_cache_alloc(),..) fails once per 10 times.

      [PATCH] fault injection: documentation and scripts · de1ba09b
      Akinobu Mita 提交于
      This patch set provides some fault-injection capabilities.
      
      - kmalloc() failures
      
      - alloc_pages() failures
      
      - disk IO errors
      
      We can see what really happens if those failures happen.
      
      In order to enable these fault-injection capabilities:
      
      1. Enable relevant config options (CONFIG_FAILSLAB, CONFIG_PAGE_ALLOC,
         CONFIG_MAKE_REQUEST) and if you want to configure them via debugfs,
         enable CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS.
      
      2. Build and boot with this kernel
      
      3. Configure fault-injection capabilities behavior by boot option or debugfs
      
         - Boot option
      
           failslab=
           fail_page_alloc=
           fail_make_request=
      
         - Debugfs
      
           /debug/failslab/*
           /debug/fail_page_alloc/*
           /debug/fail_make_request/*
      
         Please refer to the Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt
         for details.
      
      4. See what really happens.
