2009-03-25trace_workqueues: fix empty line's outputLai Jiangshan
Empty lines separate cpus stat. After previous fix(trace_stat: keep original order) applied, the empty lines are displayed at incorrect position.

2009-03-25trace_stat: keep original orderLai Jiangshan
Impact: make trace_stat files show items with the original order trace_stat tracer reverse the items, it makes the output looks a little ugly. Example, when we read trace_stat/workqueues, we get cpu#7's stat. at first, and then cpu#6... cpu#0.

2009-03-24function-graph: add option for include sleep timesSteven Rostedt
Impact: give user a choice to show times spent while sleeping The user may want to see the time a function spent sleeping. This patch adds the trace option "sleep-time" to allow that. The "sleep-time" option is default on. echo sleep-time > /debug/tracing/trace_options produces: ------------------------------------------ 2) avahi-d-3428 => <idle>-0 ------------------------------------------ 2) | finish_task_switch() { 2) 0.621 us | _spin_unlock_irq(); 2) 2.202 us | } 2) ! 1002.197 us | } 2) ! 1003.521 us | } where as, echo nosleep-time > /debug/tracing/trace_options produces: 0) <idle>-0 => yum-upd-3416 ------------------------------------------ 0) | finish_task_switch() { 0) 0.643 us | _spin_unlock_irq(); 0) 2.342 us | } 0) + 41.302 us | } 0) + 42.453 us | } Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
2009-03-24function-graph: ignore times across scheduleSteven Rostedt
Impact: more accurate timings The current method of function graph tracing does not take into account the time spent when a task is not running. This shows functions that call schedule have increased costs: 3) + 18.664 us | } ------------------------------------------ 3) <idle>-0 => kblockd-123 ------------------------------------------ 3) | finish_task_switch() { 3) 1.441 us | _spin_unlock_irq(); 3) 3.966 us | } 3) ! 2959.433 us | } 3) ! 2961.465 us | } This patch uses the tracepoint in the scheduling context switch to account for time that has elapsed while a task is scheduled out. Now we see: ------------------------------------------ 3) <idle>-0 => edac-po-1067 ------------------------------------------ 3) | finish_task_switch() { 3) 0.685 us | _spin_unlock_irq(); 3) 2.331 us | } 3) + 41.439 us | } 3) + 42.663 us | } Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
2009-03-24function-graph: prevent more than one tracer registeringSteven Rostedt
Impact: prevent crash due to multiple function graph tracers The function graph tracer can currently only handle a single tracer being registered. If another tracer registers with the function graph tracer it can crash the system. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

2009-03-24tracing: fix memory leak in trace_statSteven Rostedt
If the function profiler does not have any items recorded and one were to cat the function stat file, the kernel would take a BUG with a NULL pointer dereference. Looking further into this, I found that returning NULL from stat_start did not stop the stat logic, and would later call stat_next. This breaks from the way seq_file works, so I looked into fixing the stat code. This is where I noticed that the last next_entry is never freed. It is allocated, and if the stat_next returns NULL, the code breaks out of the loop, unlocks the mutex and exits. We never link the next_entry nor do we free it. Thus it is a real memory leak. This patch rearranges the code a bit to not only fix the memory leak, but also to act more like seq_file where nothing is printed if there is nothing to print. That is, stat_start returns NULL.

2009-03-23tracing: Fix TRACING_SUPPORT dependency for PPC32Anton Vorontsov
commit 40ada30f9621fbd831ac2437b9a2a399aa ("tracing: clean up menu"), despite the "clean up" in its purpose, introduced a behavioural change for Kconfig symbols: we no longer able to select tracing support on PPC32 (because IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT isn't yet implemented). The IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT is not mandatory for most tracers, tracing core has a special case for platforms w/o irqflags (which, by the way, has become useless as of the commit above). Though according to Ingo Molnar, there was periodic build failures on weird, unmaintained architectures that had no irqflags-tracing support and hence didn't know the raw_irqs_save/restore primitives. Thus we'd better not enable irqflags-less tracing for all architectures. This patch restores the old behaviour for PPC32, and thus brings the tracing back. Other architectures can either add themselves to the exception list or (better) implement TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT.

2009-03-23tracing/ftrace: check if debugfs is registered before creating filesFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: fix a crash with ftrace={nop,boot} parameter If the nop or initcall tracers are launched as boot tracers, they will attempt to create their option directory and files. But these tracers are registered very early and then assigned as "boot tracers" very early if asked to. Since they do this before debugfs has been registered (core initcall), a crash is triggered. Another early tracers could also come later. So we fix it by checking if debugfs is initialized before creating the root tracing directory.

2009-03-22tracing/function-graph-tracer: prevent hangs during self-testsFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: detect tracing related hangs Sometimes, with some configs, the function graph tracer can make the timer interrupt too much slow, hanging the kernel in an endless loop of timer interrupts servicing. As suggested by Ingo, this patch brings a watchdog which stops the selftest after a defined number of functions traced, definitely disabling this tracer. For those who want to debug the cause of the function graph trace hang, you can pass the ftrace_dump_on_oops kernel parameter to dump the traces after this hang detection.

2009-03-21tracing/ring-buffer: don't annotate rb_cpu_notify with __cpuinitFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: remove a section warning CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH raises the following warning on -tip: WARNING: kernel/trace/built-in.o(.text+0x5bc5): Section mismatch in reference from the function ring_buffer_alloc() to the function .cpuinit.text:rb_cpu_notify() The function ring_buffer_alloc() references the function __cpuinit rb_cpu_notify(). This is actually harmless. The code in the ring buffer don't build rb_cpu_notify and other cpu hotplug stuffs when !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU so we have no risk to reference freed memory here (it would even be harmless if we unconditionally build it because register_cpu_notifier would do nothing when !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU. But since ring_buffer_alloc() can be called everytime, we don't want it to be annotated with __cpuinit so we drop the __cpuinit from rb_cpu_notify. This is not a waste of memory because it is only defined and used on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

2009-03-19function-graph: show binary events as commentsSteven Rostedt
With the added TRACE_EVENT macro, the events no longer appear in the function graph tracer. This was because the function graph did not know how to display the entries. The graph tracer was only aware of its own entries and the printk entries. By using the event call back feature, the graph tracer can now display the events. # echo irq > /debug/tracing/set_event Which can show: 0) | handle_IRQ_event() { 0) | /* irq_handler_entry: irq=48 handler=eth0 */ 0) | e1000_intr() { 0) 0.926 us | __napi_schedule(); 0) 3.888 us | } 0) | /* irq_handler_exit: irq=48 return=handled */ 0) 0.655 us | runqueue_is_locked(); 0) | __wake_up() { 0) 0.831 us | _spin_lock_irqsave(); The irq entry and exit events show up as comments.

2009-03-19tracing: remove recording function depth from trace_printkSteven Rostedt
The function depth in trace_printk was to facilitate the function graph output. Now that the function graph calculates the depth within the trace output, we no longer need to record the depth when the trace_printk is called. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
2009-03-19function-graph: calculate function depth within function graph tracerSteven Rostedt
Currently, the function graph tracer depends on the trace_printk to record the depth. All the information is already there in the trace to calculate function depth, with the exception of having the printk be the first item. But as soon as a entry or exit is reached, then we know the depth. This patch changes the iter->private data from recording a per cpu last_pid, to a structure that holds both the last_pid and the current depth. This data is used to determine the function depth for the printks. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

2009-03-19tracing/ring-buffer: fix non cpu hotplug caseFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: fix warning with irqsoff tracer The ring buffer allocates its buffers on pre-smp time (early_initcall). It means that, at first, only the boot cpu buffer is allocated and the ring-buffer cpumask only has the boot cpu set (cpu_online_mask). Later, the secondary cpu will show up and the ring-buffer will be notified about this event: the appropriate buffer will be allocated and the cpumask will be updated. Unfortunately, if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG, the ring-buffer will not be notified about the secondary cpus, meaning that the cpumask will have only the cpu boot set, and only one cpu buffer allocated. We fix that by using cpu_possible_mask if !CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG. This patch fixes the following warning with irqsoff tracer running: [ 169.317794] WARNING: at kernel/trace/trace.c:466 update_max_tr_single+0xcc/0xf3() [ 169.318002] Hardware name: AMILO Li 2727 [ 169.318002] Modules linked in: [ 169.318002] Pid: 5624, comm: bash Not tainted 2.6.29-rc8-tip-02636-g6aafa6c #11 [ 169.318002] Call Trace: [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff81036182>] warn_slowpath+0xea/0x13d [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8100b9d6>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x2b [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8100b9d6>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x2b [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8100b9d1>] ? ftrace_call+0x0/0x2b [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8101ef10>] ? ftrace_modify_code+0xa9/0x108 [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8106e27f>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0x25/0x27 [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8149afe7>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x1f/0x2d [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff81064f52>] ? ring_buffer_reset_cpu+0xf6/0xfb [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8106637c>] ? ring_buffer_reset+0x36/0x48 [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8106aeda>] update_max_tr_single+0xcc/0xf3 [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8100bc17>] ? sysret_check+0x22/0x5d [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8106e3ea>] stop_critical_timing+0x142/0x204 [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8106e4cf>] trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x23/0x25 [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8149ac28>] trace_hardirqs_on_thunk+0x3a/0x3c [ 169.318002] [<ffffffff8100bc17>] ? sysret_check+0x22/0x5d [ 169.318002] ---[ end trace db76cbf775a750cf ]--- Because this tracer may try to swap two cpu ring buffers for an unregistered cpu on the ring buffer.

During the selftest of irqsoff tracer, we do that: /* disable interrupts for a bit */ local_irq_disable(); udelay(100); local_irq_enable(); /* stop the tracing. */ tracing_stop(); /* check both trace buffers */ ret = trace_test_buffer(tr, NULL); If a callsite performs a new max delay with irqs off just after tracing_stop, update_max_tr_single() -> ring_buffer_swap_cpu() will be called with the buffers disabled by tracing_stop(), hence the warning, then ring_buffer_swap_cpu() return -EAGAIN and update_max_tr_single() complains. Fix it by also stopping the tracer before stopping the tracing globally. A similar situation can happen with preemptoff and preemptirqsoff tracers where we apply the same fix.

2009-03-18tracing: fix command line to pid reverse mapCarsten Emde
Impact: fix command line to pid mapping map_cmdline_to_pid[] is checked in trace_save_cmdline(), but never updated. This results in stale pid to command line mappings and the tracer output will associate the wrong comm string.

2009-03-18tracing: fix trace_find_cmdline()Thomas Gleixner
Impact: prevent stale command line output In case there is no valid command line mapping for a pid trace_find_cmdline() returns without updating the comm buffer. The trace dump keeps the previous entry which results in confusing trace output: <idle>-0 [000] 280.702056 .... <idle>-23456 [000] 280.702080 ....

2009-03-18tracing: replace the crude (unsigned) -1 hackeryThomas Gleixner
Impact: cleanup The command line recorder uses (unsigned) -1 to mark non mapped entries in the pid to command line maps. The validity check is completely unintuitive: idx >= SAVED_CMDLINES There is no need for such casting games. Use a constant to mark unmapped entries and check for that constant to make the code readable and understandable.

2009-03-18tracing: stop command line recording when tracing is disabledThomas Gleixner
Impact: prevent overwrite of command line entries When the tracer is stopped the command line recording continues to record. The check for tracing_is_on() is not sufficient here as the ringbuffer status is not affected by setting debug/tracing/tracing_enabled to 0. On a non idle system this can result in the loss of the command line information for the stopped trace, which makes the trace harder to read and analyse. Check tracer_enabled to allow further recording.

2009-03-16tracing: stop comm recording on tracing offSteven Rostedt
Impact: fix for losing comms in trace The command lines of tasks are cached at sched switch to not need to record them at every trace point. Disabling the tracing on stops the recording of traces, but does not stop the caching of command lines. When the tracing is off the cache may overflow and cause the tracing to show incorrect tasks matching the PIDs. This patch disables prevents updates to the comm cache when the ring buffer is off.

2009-03-16tracing: protect reader of cmdline outputSteven Rostedt
Impact: fix to one cause of incorrect comm outputs in trace The spinlock only protected the creation of a comm <=> pid pair. But it was possible that a reader could look up a pid, and get the wrong comm because it had no locking. This also required changing trace_find_cmdline to copy the comm cache and not just send back a pointer to it. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
