Impact: fix race condition in sched_switch tracer This patch fixes a race condition in the sched_switch tracer. If several tasks (IE: concurrent initcalls) are playing with tracing_start_cmdline_record() and tracing_stop_cmdline_record(), the following situation could happen: _ Task A and B are using the same tracepoint probe. Task A holds it. Task B is sleeping and doesn't hold it. _ Task A frees the sched tracer, then sched_ref is decremented to 0. _ Task A is preempted and hadn't yet unregistered its tracepoint probe, then B runs. _ B increments sched_ref, sees it's 1 and then guess it has to register its probe. But it has not been freed by task A. _ A lot of bad things can happen after that... Signed-off-by: NFrederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: modify boot tracer We used to disable the initcall tracing at a specified time (IE: end of builtin initcalls). But we don't need it anymore. It will be stopped when initcalls are finished. However we want two things: _Start this tracing only after pre-smp initcalls are finished. _Since we are planning to trace sched_switches at the same time, we want to enable them only during the initcall execution. For this purpose, this patch introduce two functions to enable/disable the sched_switch tracing during boot.

Impact: add new tracepoint APIs to allow the batched registration of probes new APIs separate tracepoint_probe_register(), tracepoint_probe_unregister() into 2 steps. The first step of them is just update tracepoint_entry, not connect or disconnect. this patch introduces tracepoint_probe_update_all() for update all. these APIs are very useful for registering lots of probes but just updating once. Another very important thing is that *_noupdate APIs do not require module_mutex.

Impact: simplify implementation Now, unused memory is handled by struct tp_probes. old code use these three field to handle unused memory. struct tracepoint_entry { ... struct rcu_head rcu; void *oldptr; unsigned char rcu_pending:1; ... }; in this way, unused memory is handled by struct tracepoint_entry. it bring reenter bug(it was fixed) and tracepoint.c is filled full of ".*rcu.*" code statements. this patch removes all these. and: rcu_barrier_sched() is removed.

Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled. Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing the real answer. This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those same archs compile with tracing enabled. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: corrects a bug which made the non-dyn function tracer not functional With latest git, the non-dynamic function tracer didn't get any trace. The problem was the fact that ftrace_enabled wasn't initialized to 1 because ftrace hasn't any init function when DYNAMIC_FTRACE is disabled. So when a tracer tries to register an ftrace_ops struct, __register_ftrace_function failed to set the hook. This patch corrects it by setting an init function to initialize ftrace during the boot.

The commit (in linux-tip) c2931e05 ( ftrace: return an error when setting a nonexistent tracer ) added useful code that would error when a bad tracer was written into the current_tracer file. But this had a bug if the amount written was more than the amount read by that code. The first iteration would set the tracer correctly, but since it did not consume the rest of what was written (usually whitespace), the userspace utility would continue to write what was not consumed. This second iteration would fail to find a tracer and return -EINVAL. Funny thing is that the tracer would have already been set. This patch just consumes all the data that is written to the file.

Impact: fix lockdep lock-api-caller output when irqsoff tracing is enabled 81d68a96 "ftrace: trace irq disabled critical timings" added wrappers around trace_hardirqs_on/off_caller. However these functions use __builtin_return_address(0) to figure out which function actually disabled or enabled irqs. The result is that we save the ips of trace_hardirqs_on/off instead of the real caller. Not very helpful. However since the patch from Steven the ip already gets passed. So use that and get rid of __builtin_return_address(0) in these two functions. Signed-off-by: NHeiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: add (default-off) dump-trace-on-oops flag Currently, ftrace is set up to dump its contents to the console if the kernel panics or oops. This can be annoying if you have trace data in the buffers and you experience an oops, but the trace data is old or static. Usually when you want ftrace to dump its contents is when you are debugging your system and you have set up ftrace to trace the events leading to an oops. This patch adds a control variable called "ftrace_dump_on_oops" that will enable the ftrace dump to console on oops. This variable is default off but a developer can enable it either through the kernel command line by adding "ftrace_dump_on_oops" or at run time by setting (or disabling) /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops. v2: Replaced /** with /* as Randy explained that kernel-doc does not yet handle variables.

This reverts commit a802dd0e by moving the call to init_workqueues() back where it belongs - after SMP has been initialized. It also moves stop_machine_init() - which needs workqueues - to a later phase using a core_initcall() instead of early_initcall(). That should satisfy all ordering requirements, and was apparently the reason why init_workqueues() was moved to be too early.

Since we moved wakeup preemption back to virtual time, it makes sense to move the buddy stuff back as well. The purpose of the buddy scheduling is to allow a quickly scheduling pair of tasks to run away from the group as far as a regular busy task would be allowed under wakeup preemption. This has the advantage that the pair can ping-pong for a while, enjoying cache-hotness. Without buddy scheduling other tasks would interleave destroying the cache. Also, it saves a word in cfs_rq.

Mike noticed the current min_vruntime tracking can go wrong and skip the current task. If the only remaining task in the tree is a nice 19 task with huge vruntime, new tasks will be inserted too far to the right too, causing some interactibity issues. min_vruntime can only change due to the leftmost entry disappearing (dequeue_entity()), or by the leftmost entry being incremented past the next entry, which elects a new leftmost (__update_curr()) Due to the current entry not being part of the actual tree, we have to compare the leftmost tree entry with the current entry, and take the leftmost of these two. So create a update_min_vruntime() function that takes computes the leftmost vruntime in the system (either tree of current) and increases the cfs_rq->min_vruntime if the computed value is larger than the previously found min_vruntime. And call this from the two sites we've identified that can change min_vruntime.
