We should print some warning and kill ftrace functionality when the ftrace function is not set correctly. Otherwise, ftrace might do crazy things without an explanation. The error value has been ignored so far. Note that an error that happens during updating all the traced calls is handled in ftrace_replace_code(). We print more details about the particular failing address via ftrace_bug() there.

As the data parameter is not really used by any ftrace_dyn_arch_init, remove that from ftrace_dyn_arch_init. This also removes the addr local variable from ftrace_init which is now unused. Note the documentation was imprecise as it did not suggest to set (*data) to 0.

No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against zero. Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on all archs.

The functions that assign the contents for the ftrace events are defined by the TRACE_EVENT() macros. Each event has its own unique way to assign data to its buffer. When you have over 500 events, that means there's 500 functions assigning data uniquely for each event (not really that many, as DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and multiple DEFINE_EVENT()s will only need a single function). By making helper functions in the core kernel to do some of the work instead, we can shrink the size of the kernel down a bit. With a kernel configured with 502 events, the change in size was: text data bss dec hex filename 12987390 1913504 9785344 24686238 178ae9e /tmp/vmlinux 12959102 1913504 9785344 24657950 178401e /tmp/vmlinux.patched That's a total of 28288 bytes, which comes down to 56 bytes per event.

The code for trace events to format the raw recorded event data into human readable format in the 'trace' file is repeated for every event in the system. When you have over 500 events, this can add up quite a bit. By making helper functions in the core kernel to do the work instead, we can shrink the size of the kernel down a bit.

That is because in the mean time, commit f71130de ("tracing: Add a helper function for event print functions") did a lot of the work my original patch did. But this change helps slightly, and is part of a larger clean up to reduce the size much further.

Being able to change the trace clock at boot can be advantageous if you need a better source of when things happen across CPUs. The default trace clock is the fastest, but it uses local clocks which may not be synced across CPUs and it does not let you know when events took place with respect to events on other CPUs. The global trace clock can help in this case, and if you do not care about timings, the counter "clock" is the best, as that is just a simple atomic counter that is incremented for every event. Usage is to add "trace_clock=counter" on the kernel command line. You can replace counter with "global" or any of the clocks listed in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_clock Suggested-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Tested-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reviewed-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Appreciated-by: NThomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Support multi-buffer on uprobe-based dynamic events by using ftrace_event_file. This patch is based kprobe-based dynamic events multibuffer support work initially, commited by Masami(commit 41a7dd42), but revised as below: Oleg changed the kprobe-based multibuffer design from array-pointers of ftrace_event_file into simple list, so this patch also change to the list design. rcu_read_lock/unlock added into uprobe_trace_func/uretprobe_trace_func, to synchronize with ftrace_event_file list add and delete. Even though we allow multi-uprobes instances now, but TP_FLAG_PROFILE/TP_FLAG_TRACE are still mutually exclusive in probe_event_enable currently, this means we cannot allow one user is using uprobe-tracer, and another user is using perf-probe on same uprobe concurrently.

Each sub-buffer (buffer page) has a full 64 bit timestamp. The events on that page use a 27 bit delta against that timestamp in order to save on bits written to the ring buffer. If the time between events is larger than what the 27 bits can hold, a "time extend" event is added to hold the entire 64 bit timestamp again and the events after that hold a delta from that timestamp. As a "time extend" is always paired with an event, it is logical to just allocate the event with the time extend, to make things a bit more efficient. Unfortunately, when the pairing code was written, it removed the "delta = 0" from the first commit on a page, causing the events on the page to be slightly skewed.

With get_page(page) look at that page __free_page(page) look at that page __free_page(page) which is not a good thing, to put it mildly. AFAICS, that ought to use the normal generic_pipe_buf_release() (aka page_cache_release(buf->page)), shouldn't it? [ SDR - As trace_pipe just allocates the page with alloc_page(GFP_KERNEL), and doesn't do anything special with it (no LRU logic). The __free_page() should be fine, as it wont actually free a page with reference count. Maybe there's a chance to leak memory?

Doing some different tests, I discovered that function graph tracing, when filtered via the set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace files, does not always keep with them if another function ftrace_ops is registered to trace functions. The reason is that function graph just happens to trace all functions that the function tracer enables. When there was only one user of function tracing, the function graph tracer did not need to worry about being called by functions that it did not want to trace. But now that there are other users, this becomes a problem. For example, one just needs to do the following: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo schedule > set_ftrace_filter # echo function_graph > current_tracer # cat trace [..] 0) | schedule() { ------------------------------------------ 0) <idle>-0 => rcu_pre-7 ------------------------------------------ 0) ! 2980.314 us | } 0) | schedule() { ------------------------------------------ 0) rcu_pre-7 => <idle>-0 ------------------------------------------ 0) + 20.701 us | } # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled # cat trace [..] 1) + 20.825 us | } 1) + 21.651 us | } 1) + 30.924 us | } /* SyS_ioctl */ 1) | do_page_fault() { 1) | __do_page_fault() { 1) 0.274 us | down_read_trylock(); 1) 0.098 us | find_vma(); 1) | handle_mm_fault() { 1) | _raw_spin_lock() { 1) 0.102 us | preempt_count_add(); 1) 0.097 us | do_raw_spin_lock(); 1) 2.173 us | } 1) | do_wp_page() { 1) 0.079 us | vm_normal_page(); 1) 0.086 us | reuse_swap_page(); 1) 0.076 us | page_move_anon_rmap(); 1) | unlock_page() { 1) 0.082 us | page_waitqueue(); 1) 0.086 us | __wake_up_bit(); 1) 1.801 us | } 1) 0.075 us | ptep_set_access_flags(); 1) | _raw_spin_unlock() { 1) 0.098 us | do_raw_spin_unlock(); 1) 0.105 us | preempt_count_sub(); 1) 1.884 us | } 1) 9.149 us | } 1) + 13.083 us | } 1) 0.146 us | up_read(); When the stack tracer was enabled, it enabled all functions to be traced, which now the function graph tracer also traces. This is a side effect that should not occur. To fix this a test is added when the function tracing is changed, as well as when the graph tracer is enabled, to see if anything other than the ftrace global_ops function tracer is enabled. If so, then the graph tracer calls a test trampoline that will look at the function that is being traced and compare it with the filters defined by the global_ops. As an optimization, if there's no other function tracers registered, or if the only registered function tracers also use the global ops, the function graph infrastructure will call the registered function graph callback directly and not go through the test trampoline.

Some method to deal with rt-mutexes and make sched_dl interact with the current PI-coded is needed, raising all but trivial issues, that needs (according to us) to be solved with some restructuring of the pi-code (i.e., going toward a proxy execution-ish implementation). This is under development, in the meanwhile, as a temporary solution, what this commits does is: - ensure a pi-lock owner with waiters is never throttled down. Instead, when it runs out of runtime, it immediately gets replenished and it's deadline is postponed; - the scheduling parameters (relative deadline and default runtime) used for that replenishments --during the whole period it holds the pi-lock-- are the ones of the waiting task with earliest deadline. Acting this way, we provide some kind of boosting to the lock-owner, still by using the existing (actually, slightly modified by the previous commit) pi-architecture. We would stress the fact that this is only a surely needed, all but clean solution to the problem. In the end it's only a way to re-start discussion within the community. So, as always, comments, ideas, rants, etc.. are welcome! :-) Signed-off-by: NDario Faggioli <raistlin@linux.it> Signed-off-by: NJuri Lelli <juri.lelli@gmail.com> [ Added !RT_MUTEXES build fix. ] Signed-off-by: NPeter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1383831828-15501-11-git-send-email-juri.lelli@gmail.comSigned-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

It is very likely that systems that wants/needs to use the new SCHED_DEADLINE policy also want to have the scheduling latency of the -deadline tasks under control. For this reason a new version of the scheduling wakeup latency, called "wakeup_dl", is introduced. As a consequence of applying this patch there will be three wakeup latency tracer: * "wakeup", that deals with all tasks in the system; * "wakeup_rt", that deals with -rt and -deadline tasks only; * "wakeup_dl", that deals with -deadline tasks only.

ftrace_trace_function is a variable that holds what function will be called directly by the assembly code (mcount). If just a single function is registered and it handles recursion itself, then the assembly will call that function directly without any helper function. It also passes in the ftrace_op that was registered with the callback. The ftrace_op to send is stored in the function_trace_op variable. The ftrace_trace_function and function_trace_op needs to be coordinated such that the called callback wont be called with the wrong ftrace_op, otherwise bad things can happen if it expected a different op. Luckily, there's no callback that doesn't use the helper functions that requires this. But there soon will be and this needs to be fixed. Use a set_function_trace_op to store the ftrace_op to set the function_trace_op to when it is safe to do so (during the update function within the breakpoint or stop machine calls). Or if dynamic ftrace is not being used (static tracing) then we have to do a bit more synchronization when the ftrace_trace_function is set as that takes affect immediately (as oppose to dynamic ftrace doing it with the modification of the trampoline).

Currently there's no way to know what triggers exist on a kernel without looking at the source of the kernel or randomly trying out triggers. Instead of creating another file in the debugfs system, simply show what available triggers are there when cat'ing the trigger file when it has no events: [root /sys/kernel/debug/tracing]# cat events/sched/sched_switch/trigger # Available triggers: # traceon traceoff snapshot stacktrace enable_event disable_event This stays consistent with other debugfs files where meta data like this is always proceeded with a '#' at the start of the line so that tools can strip these out.

The event trigger code that checks for callback triggers before and after recording of an event has lots of flags checks. This code is duplicated throughout the ftrace events, kprobes and system calls. They all do the exact same checks against the event flags. Added helper functions ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled(), event_trigger_unlock_commit() and event_trigger_unlock_commit_regs() that consolidated the code and these are used instead.
