2008-10-14ring_buffer: allocate buffer page pointerSteven Rostedt
The current method of overlaying the page frame as the buffer page pointer can be very dangerous and limits our ability to do other things with a page from the buffer, like send it off to disk. This patch allocates the buffer_page instead of overlaying the page's page frame. The use of the buffer_page has hardly changed due to this.

2008-10-14ftrace: type cast filter+verifierSteven Rostedt
The mmiotrace map had a bug that would typecast the entry from the trace to the wrong type. That is a known danger of C typecasts, there's absolutely zero checking done on them. Help that problem a bit by using a GCC extension to implement a type filter that restricts the types that a trace record can be cast into, and by adding a dynamic check (in debug mode) to verify the type of the entry. This patch adds a macro to assign all entries of ftrace using the type of the variable and checking the entry id. The typecasts are now done in the macro for only those types that it knows about, which should be all the types that are allowed to be read from the tracer.

2008-10-14ring_buffer: implement new lockingSteven Rostedt
The old "lock always" scheme had issues with lockdep, and was not very efficient anyways. This patch does a new design to be partially lockless on writes. Writes will add new entries to the per cpu pages by simply disabling interrupts. When a write needs to go to another page than it will grab the lock. A new "read page" has been added so that the reader can pull out a page from the ring buffer to read without worrying about the writer writing over it. This allows us to not take the lock for all reads. The lock is now only taken when a read needs to go to a new page. This is far from lockless, and interrupts still need to be disabled, but it is a step towards a more lockless solution, and it also solves a lot of the issues that were noticed by the first conversion of ftrace to the ring buffers. Note: the ring_buffer_{un}lock API has been removed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-10-14ftrace: take advantage of variable length entriesSteven Rostedt
Now that the underlining ring buffer for ftrace now hold variable length entries, we can take advantage of this by only storing the size of the actual event into the buffer. This happens to increase the number of entries in the buffer dramatically. We can also get rid of the "trace_cont" operation, but I'm keeping that until we have no more users. Some of the ftrace tracers can now change their code to adapt to this new feature. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-10-14ring_buffer: add paranoid check for buffer pageSteven Rostedt
If for some strange reason the buffer_page gets bigger, or the page struct gets smaller, I want to know this ASAP. The best way is to not let the kernel compile. This patch adds code to test the size of the struct buffer_page against the page struct and will cause compile issues if the buffer_page ever gets bigger than the page struct.

2008-10-14tracing: unified trace bufferSteven Rostedt
This is a unified tracing buffer that implements a ring buffer that hopefully everyone will eventually be able to use. The events recorded into the buffer have the following structure: struct ring_buffer_event { u32 type:2, len:3, time_delta:27; u32 array[]; }; The minimum size of an event is 8 bytes. All events are 4 byte aligned inside the buffer. There are 4 types (all internal use for the ring buffer, only the data type is exported to the interface users). RINGBUF_TYPE_PADDING: this type is used to note extra space at the end of a buffer page. RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_EXTENT: This type is used when the time between events is greater than the 27 bit delta can hold. We add another 32 bits, and record that in its own event (8 byte size). RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP: (Not implemented yet). This will hold data to help keep the buffer timestamps in sync. RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA: The event actually holds user data. The "len" field is only three bits. Since the data must be 4 byte aligned, this field is shifted left by 2, giving a max length of 28 bytes. If the data load is greater than 28 bytes, the first array field holds the full length of the data load and the len field is set to zero. Example, data size of 7 bytes: type = RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA len = 2 time_delta: <time-stamp> - <prev_event-time-stamp> array[0..1]: <7 bytes of data> <1 byte empty> This event is saved in 12 bytes of the buffer. An event with 82 bytes of data: type = RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA len = 0 time_delta: <time-stamp> - <prev_event-time-stamp> array[0]: 84 (Note the alignment) array[1..14]: <82 bytes of data> <2 bytes empty> The above event is saved in 92 bytes (if my math is correct). 82 bytes of data, 2 bytes empty, 4 byte header, 4 byte length. Do not reference the above event struct directly. Use the following functions to gain access to the event table, since the ring_buffer_event structure may change in the future. ring_buffer_event_length(event): get the length of the event. This is the size of the memory used to record this event, and not the size of the data pay load. ring_buffer_time_delta(event): get the time delta of the event This returns the delta time stamp since the last event. Note: Even though this is in the header, there should be no reason to access this directly, accept for debugging. ring_buffer_event_data(event): get the data from the event This is the function to use to get the actual data from the event. Note, it is only a pointer to the data inside the buffer. This data must be copied to another location otherwise you risk it being written over in the buffer. ring_buffer_lock: A way to lock the entire buffer. ring_buffer_unlock: unlock the buffer. ring_buffer_alloc: create a new ring buffer. Can choose between overwrite or consumer/producer mode. Overwrite will overwrite old data, where as consumer producer will throw away new data if the consumer catches up with the producer. The consumer/producer is the default. ring_buffer_free: free the ring buffer. ring_buffer_resize: resize the buffer. Changes the size of each cpu buffer. Note, it is up to the caller to provide that the buffer is not being used while this is happening. This requirement may go away but do not count on it. ring_buffer_lock_reserve: locks the ring buffer and allocates an entry on the buffer to write to. ring_buffer_unlock_commit: unlocks the ring buffer and commits it to the buffer. ring_buffer_write: writes some data into the ring buffer. ring_buffer_peek: Look at a next item in the cpu buffer. ring_buffer_consume: get the next item in the cpu buffer and consume it. That is, this function increments the head pointer. ring_buffer_read_start: Start an iterator of a cpu buffer. For now, this disables the cpu buffer, until you issue a finish. This is just because we do not want the iterator to be overwritten. This restriction may change in the future. But note, this is used for static reading of a buffer which is usually done "after" a trace. Live readings would want to use the ring_buffer_consume above, which will not disable the ring buffer. ring_buffer_read_finish: Finishes the read iterator and reenables the ring buffer. ring_buffer_iter_peek: Look at the next item in the cpu iterator. ring_buffer_read: Read the iterator and increment it. ring_buffer_iter_reset: Reset the iterator to point to the beginning of the cpu buffer. ring_buffer_iter_empty: Returns true if the iterator is at the end of the cpu buffer. ring_buffer_size: returns the size in bytes of each cpu buffer. Note, the real size is this times the number of CPUs. ring_buffer_reset_cpu: Sets the cpu buffer to empty ring_buffer_reset: sets all cpu buffers to empty ring_buffer_swap_cpu: swaps a cpu buffer from one buffer with a cpu buffer of another buffer. This is handy when you want to take a snap shot of a running trace on just one cpu. Having a backup buffer, to swap with facilitates this. Ftrace max latencies use this. ring_buffer_empty: Returns true if the ring buffer is empty. ring_buffer_empty_cpu: Returns true if the cpu buffer is empty. ring_buffer_record_disable: disable all cpu buffers (read only) ring_buffer_record_disable_cpu: disable a single cpu buffer (read only) ring_buffer_record_enable: enable all cpu buffers. ring_buffer_record_enabl_cpu: enable a single cpu buffer. ring_buffer_entries: The number of entries in a ring buffer. ring_buffer_overruns: The number of entries removed due to writing wrap. ring_buffer_time_stamp: Get the time stamp used by the ring buffer ring_buffer_normalize_time_stamp: normalize the ring buffer time stamp into nanosecs. I still need to implement the GTOD feature. But we need support from the cpu frequency infrastructure. But this can be done at a later time without affecting the ring buffer interface.

2008-10-14ftrace: give time for wakeup test to runSteven Rostedt

2008-10-14tracing/fastboot: add a script to visualize the kernel boot process / timeArjan van de Ven
When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize what is going on at which time. In addition, with the fastboot asynchronous initcall level, it's very valuable to see which initcall gets run where and when. This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall (so that the script can work out the parallelism).

2008-10-14markers: re-enable fast batch registrationMathieu Desnoyers
Lai Jiangshan discovered a reentrancy issue with markers and fixed it by adding synchronize_sched() calls at each registration/unregistraiton. It works, but it removes the ability to do batch registration/unregistration and can cause registration of ~100 markers to take about 30 seconds on a loaded machine (synchronize_sched() is much slower on such workloads).

2008-10-14markers: fix unregister bug and reenter bugLai Jiangshan
unregister bug: codes using makers are typically calling marker_probe_unregister() and then destroying the data that marker_probe_func needs(or unloading this module). This is bug when the corresponding marker_probe_func is still running(on other cpus), it is using the destroying/ed data. we should call synchronize_sched() after marker_update_probes(). reenter bug: marker_probe_register(), marker_probe_unregister() and marker_probe_unregister_private_data() are not reentrant safe functions. these 3 functions release markers_mutex and then require it again and do "entry->oldptr = old; ...", but entry->oldptr maybe is using now for these 3 functions may reenter when markers_mutex is released. we use synchronize_sched() instead of call_rcu_sched() to fix this bug. actually we can do: " if (entry->rcu_pending) rcu_barrier_sched(); " after require markers_mutex again. but synchronize_sched() is better and simpler.

2008-10-14x86 mmiotrace: implement mmiotrace_printk()Pekka Paalanen
Offer mmiotrace users a function to inject markers from inside the kernel. This depends on the trace_vprintk() patch. Signed-off-by: Pekka Paalanen <pq@iki.fi> Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-14ftrace: add trace_vprintk()Pekka Paalanen
trace_vprintk() for easier implementation of tracer specific *_printk functions. Add check check for no_tracer, and implement __ftrace_printk() as a wrapper. Signed-off-by: Pekka Paalanen <pq@iki.fi> Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-14ftrace: move mmiotrace functions out of trace.cPekka Paalanen
Moves the mmiotrace specific functions from trace.c to trace_mmiotrace.c. Functions trace_wake_up(), tracing_get_trace_entry(), and tracing_generic_entry_update() are therefore made available outside trace.c.
