At OLS I had a lot of interest to be able to have the ftrace buffers dumped on panic. Usually one would expect to uses kexec and examine the buffers after a new kernel is loaded. But sometimes the resources do not permit kdump and kexec, so having an option to still see the sequence of events up to the crash is very advantageous. This patch adds the option to have the ftrace buffers dumped to the console in the latency_trace format on a panic. When the option is set, the default entries per CPU buffer are lowered to 16384, since the writing to the serial (if that is the console) may take an awful long time otherwise. [ Changes since -v1: Got alpine to send correctly (as well as spell check working). Removed config option. Moved the static variables into ftrace_dump itself. Gave printk a log level. ] Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This patch adds a feature that can help kernel developers debug their code using ftrace. int ftrace_printk(const char *fmt, ...); This records into the ftrace buffer using printf formatting. The entry size in the buffers are still a fixed length. A new type has been added that allows for more entries to be used for a single recording. The start of the print is still the same as the other entries. It returns the number of characters written to the ftrace buffer. For example: Having a module with the following code: static int __init ftrace_print_test(void) { ftrace_printk("jiffies are %ld\n", jiffies); return 0; } Gives me: insmod-5441 3...1 7569us : ftrace_print_test: jiffies are 4296626666 for the latency_trace file and: insmod-5441 [03] 1959.370498: ftrace_print_test jiffies are 4296626666 for the trace file. Note: Only the infrastructure should go into the kernel. It is to help facilitate debugging for other kernel developers. Calls to ftrace_printk is not intended to be left in the kernel, and should be frowned upon just like scattering printks around in the code. But having this easily at your fingertips helps the debugging go faster and bugs be solved quicker. Maybe later on, we can hook this with markers and have their printf format be sucked into ftrace output.

Some tracers will need to work with more than one entry. In order to do this the trace_entry structure was split into two fields. One for the start of all entries, and one to continue an existing entry. The trace_entry structure now has a "field" entry that consists of the previous content of the trace_entry, and a "cont" entry that is just a string buffer the size of the "field" entry. Thanks to Andrew Morton for suggesting this idea. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Currently the function tracer uses the global tracer_enabled variable that is used to keep track if the tracer is enabled or not. The function tracing startup needs to be separated out, otherwise the internal happenings of the tracer startup is also recorded. This patch creates a ftrace_function_enabled variable to all the starting of the function traces to happen after everything has been started.

Let records identified as being kprobe'd be marked as "frozen". The trouble with records which have a kprobe installed on their mcount call-site is that they don't get updated. So if such a function which is currently being traced gets its tracing disabled due to a new filter rule (or because it was added to the notrace list) then it won't be updated and continue being traced. This patch allows scanning of all frozen records during tracing to check if they should be traced.

Tracing functions via ftrace which have a kretprobe installed on them, can produce misleading output in their trace logs. E.g, consider the correct trace of the following sequence: do_IRQ() { ~ irq_enter(); ~ } Trace log (sample): <idle>-0 [00] 4154504455.781616: irq_enter <- do_IRQ But if irq_enter() has a kretprobe installed on it, the return value stored on the stack at each invocation is modified to divert the return to a kprobe trampoline function called kretprobe_trampoline(). So with this the trace would (currently) look like: <idle>-0 [00] 4154504455.781616: irq_enter <- kretprobe_trampoline Now this is quite misleading to the end user, as it suggests something that didn't actually happen. So just to avoid such misinterpretations, the inlined patch aims to output such a log as: <idle>-0 [00] 4154504455.781616: irq_enter <- [unknown/kretprobe'd] Signed-off-by: NAbhishek Sagar <sagar.abhishek@gmail.com> Acked-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

The check_pages function is called often enough that it can cause problems with trace outputs or even bringing the system to a halt. This patch limits the check_pages to the places that are most likely to have problems. The check is made at the flip between the global array and the max save array, as well as when the size of the buffers changes and the self tests. This patch also removes the BUG_ON from check_pages and replaces it with a WARN_ON and disabling of the tracer.

here is a patch that makes mmiotrace work almost well within the tracing framework. The patch applies on top of my previous patch. I have my own output formatting in place now. Summary of changes: - fix the NULL dereference that was due to not calling tracing_reset() - add print_line() callback into struct tracer - implement print_line() for mmiotrace, producing up-to-spec text - add my output header, but that is not really called in the right place - rewrote the main structs in mmiotrace - added two new trace entry types: TRACE_MMIO_RW and TRACE_MMIO_MAP - made some functions in trace.c non-static - check current==NULL in tracing_generic_entry_update() - fix(?) comparison in trace_seq_printf() Things seem to work fine except a few issues. Markers (text lines injected into mmiotrace log) are missing, I did not feel hacking them in before we have variable length entries. My output header is printed only for 'trace' file, but not 'trace_pipe'. For some reason, despite my quick fix, iter->trace is NULL in print_trace_line() when called from 'trace_pipe' file, which means I don't get proper output formatting. I only tried by loading nouveau.ko, which just detects the card, and that is traced fine. I didn't try further. Map, two reads and unmap. Works perfectly. I am missing the information about overflows, I'd prefer to have a counter for lost events. I didn't try, but I guess currently there is no way of knowning when it overflows? So, not too far from being fully operational, it seems :-) And looking at the diffstat, there also is some 700-900 lines of user space code that just became obsolete.

Currently there is no protection from the root user to use up all of memory for trace buffers. If the root user allocates too many entries, the OOM killer might start kill off all tasks. This patch adds an algorith to check the following condition: pages_requested > (freeable_memory + current_trace_buffer_pages) / 4 If the above is met then the allocation fails. The above prevents more than 1/4th of freeable memory from being used by trace buffers. To determine the freeable_memory, I made determine_dirtyable_memory in mm/page-writeback.c global. Special thanks goes to Peter Zijlstra for suggesting the above calculation.

This patch adds /debug/tracing/trace_entries that allows users to see as well as modify the number of trace entries the buffers hold. The number of entries only increments in ENTRIES_PER_PAGE which is calculated by the size of an entry with the number of entries that can fit in a page. The user does not need to use an exact size, but the entries will be rounded to one of the increments. Trying to set the entries to 0 will return with -EINVAL. To avoid race conditions, the modification of the buffer size can only be done when tracing is completely disabled (current_tracer == none). A info message will be printed if a user tries to modify the buffer size when not set to none.

The conversion of task states to a character in the sched_switch tracer (part of latency tracer infrastructure), seems to be incorrect. We currently do it by indexing into the state_to_char array using the state value. The state values do not map directly into the array index and are thus incorrect.
