      tracing/events: add startup tests for events · e6187007
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      As events start to become popular, and the new way to add tracing
      infrastructure into ftrace, it is important to catch any problems
      that might happen with a mistake in the TRACE_EVENT macro.
      
      This patch introduces a startup self test on the registered trace
      events. Note, it can only do a generic test, any type of testing that
      needs more involement is needed to be implemented by the tracepoint
      creators.
      
      The test goes down one by one enabling a trace point and running
      some random tasks (random in the sense that I just made them up).
      Those tasks are creating threads, grabbing mutexes and spinlocks
      and using workqueues.
      
      After testing each event individually, it does the same test after
      enabling each system of trace points. Like sched, irq, lockdep.
      
      Then finally it enables all tracepoints and performs the tasks again.
      The output to the console on bootup will look like this when everything
      works:

      Testing event kfree_skb: OK

      ftrace: use module notifier for function tracer · 93eb677d
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      The hooks in the module code for the function tracer must be called
      before any of that module code runs. The function tracer hooks
      modify the module (replacing calls to mcount to nops). If the code
      is executed while the change occurs, then the CPU can take a GPF.
      
      To handle the above with a bit of paranoia, I originally implemented
      the hooks as calls directly from the module code.
      
      After examining the notifier calls, it looks as though the start up
      notify is called before any of the module's code is executed. This makes
      the use of the notify safe with ftrace.
      
      Only the startup notify is required to be "safe". The shutdown simply
      removes the entries from the ftrace function list, and does not modify
      any code.
      
      This change has another benefit. It removes a issue with a reverse dependency
      in the mutexes of ftrace_lock and module_mutex.

      blktrace: fix context-info when mixed-using blk tracer and trace events · f3948f88
      Li Zefan 提交于
      When current tracer is set to blk tracer, TRACE_ITER_CONTEXT_INFO is
      unset, but actually context-info is printed:
      
          pdflush-431   [000]   821.181576:   8,0    P   N [pdflush]
      
      And then if we enable TRACE_ITER_CONTEXT_INFO:
      
          # echo context-info > trace_options
      
      We'll see context-info printed twice. What's worse, when we use blk
      tracer and trace events at the same time, we'll see no context-info
      for trace events at all:
      
          jbd2_commit_logging: dev dm-0:8 transaction 333227
          jbd2_end_commit: dev dm-0:8 transaction 333227 head 332814

      This patch adds blk_tracer->set_flags(), and context-info flag is unset
      only when we set the output to classic mode.
      
      Note after this patch, one should unset context-info explicitly if he
      wants to get binary output that can be parsed by blkparse:
      
          # echo nocontext-info > trace_options

      blktrace: support per-partition tracing · d0deef5b
      Shawn Du 提交于
      Though one can specify '-d /dev/sda1' when using blktrace, it still
      traces the whole sda.
      
      To support per-partition tracing, when we start tracing, we initialize
      bt->start_lba and bt->end_lba to the start and end sector of that
      partition.
      
      Note some actions are per device, thus we don't filter 0-sector events.

      tracing: make trace_seq operations available for core kernel · 9504504c
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      In the process to make TRACE_EVENT macro work for modules, the trace_seq
      operations must be available for core kernel code.
      
      These operations are quite useful and can be used for other implementations.
      
      The main idea is that we create a trace_seq handle that acts very much
      like the seq_file handle.
      
      	struct trace_seq *s = kmalloc(sizeof(*s, GFP_KERNEL);
      
      	trace_seq_init(s);
      	trace_seq_printf(s, "some data %d\n", variable);
      
      	printk("%s", s->buffer);
      
      The main use is to allow a top level function call several other functions
      that may store printf like data into the buffer. Then at the end, the top
      level function can process all the data with any method it would like to.
      It could be passed to userspace, output via printk or even use seq_file:
      
      	trace_seq_to_user(s, ubuf, cnt);
      	seq_puts(m, s->buffer);

      tracing: create automated trace defines · a8d154b0
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      This patch lowers the number of places a developer must modify to add
      new tracepoints. The current method to add a new tracepoint
      into an existing system is to write the trace point macro in the
      trace header with one of the macros TRACE_EVENT, TRACE_FORMAT or
      DECLARE_TRACE, then they must add the same named item into the C file
      with the macro DEFINE_TRACE(name) and then add the trace point.
      
      This change cuts out the needing to add the DEFINE_TRACE(name).
      Every file that uses the tracepoint must still include the trace/<type>.h
      file, but the one C file must also add a define before the including
      of that file.
      
       #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
       #include <trace/mytrace.h>
      
      This will cause the trace/mytrace.h file to also produce the C code
      necessary to implement the trace point.
      
      Note, if more than one trace/<type>.h is used to create the C code

      tracing: consolidate trace and trace_event headers · ea20d929
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Impact: clean up
      
      Neil Horman (et. al.) criticized the way the trace events were broken up
      into two files. The reason for that was that ftrace needed to separate out
      the declarations from where the #include <linux/tracepoint.h> was used.
      It then dawned on me that the tracepoint.h header only needs to define the
      TRACE_EVENT macro if it is not already defined.
      
      The solution is simply to test if TRACE_EVENT is defined, and if it is not
      then the linux/tracepoint.h header can define it. This change consolidates
      all the <traces>.h and <traces>_event_types.h into the <traces>.h file.

      tracing/filters: allow on-the-fly filter switching · 0a19e53c
      Tom Zanussi 提交于
      This patch allows event filters to be safely removed or switched
      on-the-fly while avoiding the use of rcu or the suspension of tracing of
      previous versions.
      
      It does it by adding a new filter_pred_none() predicate function which
      does nothing and by never deallocating either the predicates or any of
      the filter_pred members used in matching; the predicate lists are
      allocated and initialized during ftrace_event_calls initialization.
      
      Whenever a filter is removed or replaced, the filter_pred_* functions
      currently in use by the affected ftrace_event_call are immediately
      switched over to to the filter_pred_none() function, while the rest of
      the filter_pred members are left intact, allowing any currently
      executing filter_pred_* functions to finish up, using the values they're
      currently using.
      
      In the case of filter replacement, the new predicate values are copied
      into the old predicates after the above step, and the filter_pred_none()
      functions are replaced by the filter_pred_* functions for the new
      filter.  In this case, it is possible though very unlikely that a
      previous filter_pred_* is still running even after the
      filter_pred_none() switch and the switch to the new filter_pred_*.  In
      that case, however, because nothing has been deallocated in the
      filter_pred, the worst that can happen is that the old filter_pred_*
      function sees the new values and as a result produces either a false
      positive or a false negative, depending on the values it finds.
      
      So one downside to this method is that rarely, it can produce a bad
      match during the filter switch, but it should be possible to live with
      that, IMHO.
      
      The other downside is that at least in this patch the predicate lists
      are always pre-allocated, taking up memory from the start.  They could
      probably be allocated on first-use, and de-allocated when tracing is
      completely stopped - if this patch makes sense, I could create another
      one to do that later on.
      
      Oh, and it also places a restriction on the size of __arrays in events,
      currently set to 128, since they can't be larger than the now embedded
      str_val arrays in the filter_pred struct.

      tracing/infrastructure: separate event tracer from event support · 5f77a88b
      Tom Zanussi 提交于
      Add a new config option, CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING that gets selected
      when CONFIG_TRACING is selected and adds everything needed by the stuff
      in trace_export - basically all the event tracing support needed by e.g.
      bprint, minus the actual events, which are only included if
      CONFIG_EVENT_TRACER is selected.
      
      So CONFIG_EVENT_TRACER can be used to turn on or off the generated events
      (what I think of as the 'event tracer'), while CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING turns
      on or off the base event tracing support used by both the event tracer and
      the other things such as bprint that can't be configured out.

      ring-buffer: add ring_buffer_discard_commit · fa1b47dd
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      The ring_buffer_discard_commit is similar to ring_buffer_event_discard
      but it can only be done on an event that has yet to be commited.
      Unpredictable results can happen otherwise.
      
      The main difference between ring_buffer_discard_commit and
      ring_buffer_event_discard is that ring_buffer_discard_commit will try
      to free the data in the ring buffer if nothing has addded data
      after the reserved event. If something did, then it acts almost the
      same as ring_buffer_event_discard followed by a
      ring_buffer_unlock_commit.
      
      Note, either ring_buffer_commit_discard and ring_buffer_unlock_commit
      can be called on an event, not both.
      
      This commit also exports both discard functions to be usable by
      GPL modules.

      tracing/filters: add run-time field descriptions to TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT events · e1112b4d
      Tom Zanussi 提交于
      This patch adds run-time field descriptions to all the event formats
      exported using TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT.  It also hooks up all the tracers
      that use them (i.e. the tracers in the 'ftrace subsystem') so they can
      also have their output filtered by the event-filtering mechanism.
      
      When I was testing this, there were a couple of things that fooled me
      into thinking the filters weren't working, when actually they were -
      I'll mention them here so others don't make the same mistakes (and file
      bug reports. ;-)
      
      One is that some of the tracers trace multiple events e.g. the
      sched_switch tracer uses the context_switch and wakeup events, and if
      you don't set filters on all of the traced events, the unfiltered output
      from the events without filters on them can make it look like the
      filtering as a whole isn't working properly, when actually it is doing
      what it was asked to do - it just wasn't asked to do the right thing.
      
      The other is that for the really high-volume tracers e.g. the function
      tracer, the volume of filtered events can be so high that it pushes the
      unfiltered events out of the ring buffer before they can be read so e.g.
      cat'ing the trace file repeatedly shows either no output, or once in
      awhile some output but that isn't there the next time you read the
      trace, which isn't what you normally expect when reading the trace file.
      If you read from the trace_pipe file though, you can catch them before
      they disappear.
      
      Changes from v1:
      
      As suggested by Frederic Weisbecker:
      
      - get rid of externs in functions
      - added unlikely() to filter_check_discard()

      There is a race between resume from hibernation and the asynchronous
      scanning of SCSI devices and to prevent it from happening we need to
      call scsi_complete_async_scans() during resume from hibernation.
      
      In addition, if the resume from hibernation is userland-driven, it's
      better to wait for all device probes in the kernel to complete before
      attempting to open the resume device.
