* tracing: Separate raw syscall from syscall tracerLai Jiangshan2009-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current syscall tracer mixes raw syscalls and real syscalls. echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable And we get these from the output: (XXXX insteads " grep-20914 [001] 588211.446347" .. etc) XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: 80609a8, count: 7000) XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (3, 80609a8, 7000, a, 1000, bfce8ef8) XXXX: sys_read -> 0x138 XXXX: sys_exit: NR 3 = 312 XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: 8060ae0, count: 7000) XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (3, 8060ae0, 7000, a, 1000, bfce8ef8) XXXX: sys_read -> 0x138 XXXX: sys_exit: NR 3 = 312 There are 2 drawbacks here. A) two almost identical records are saved in ringbuffer when a syscall enters or exits. (4 records for every syscall) This wastes precious space in the ring buffer. B) the lines including "sys_enter/sys_exit" produces hardly any useful information for the output (no labels). The user can use this method to prevent these drawbacks: echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable echo 0 > events/syscalls/sys_enter/enable echo 0 > events/syscalls/sys_exit/enable But this is not user friendly. So we separate raw syscall from syscall tracer. After this fix applied: syscall tracer's output (echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable): XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: bfe87d88, count: 200) XXXX: sys_read -> 0x200 XXXX: sys_fstat64(fd: 3, statbuf: bfe87c98) XXXX: sys_fstat64 -> 0x0 XXXX: sys_close(fd: 3) raw syscall tracer's output (echo 1 > events/raw_syscalls/enable): XXXX: sys_enter: NR 175 (0, bf92bf18, bf92bf98, 8, b748cff4, bf92bef8) XXXX: sys_exit: NR 175 = 0 XXXX: sys_enter: NR 175 (2, bf92bf98, 0, 8, b748cff4, bf92bef8) XXXX: sys_exit: NR 175 = 0 XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (9, bf927f9c, 4000, b77e2518, b77dce60, bf92bff8) Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> LKML-Reference: <4AEFC37C.5080609@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* ring-buffer-benchmark: Add parameters to set produce/consumer prioritiesSteven Rostedt2009-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Running the ring-buffer-benchmark's threads at the lowest priority may work well for keeping it in the background, but it is not appropriate for the benchmarks. This patch adds 4 parameters to the module: consumer_fifo consumer_nice producer_fifo producer_nice By default the consumer and producer still run at nice +19. If the *_fifo options are set, they will override the *_nice values. modprobe ring_buffer_benchmark consumer_nice=0 producer_fifo=10 The above will set the consumer thread to a nice value of 0, and the producer thread to a RT SCHED_FIFO priority of 10. Note, this patch also fixes a bug where calling set_user_nice on the consumer thread would oops the kernel when the parameter "disable_reader" is set.

* tracing: Only print objcopy version warning once from recordmcountSteven Rostedt2009-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the user has an older version of objcopy, that can not handle converting local symbols to global and vice versa, then some functions will not be part of the dynamic function tracer. The current code in recordmcount.pl will print a warning in this case. Unfortunately, there exists lots of files that may have this issue with older objcopys and this will cause a warning for every file compiled with this issue. This patch solves this overwhelming output by creating a .tmp_quiet_recordmcount file on the first instance the warning is encountered. The warning will not print if this file exists. The temp file is deleted at the beginning of the compile to ensure that the warning will happen once again on new compiles (because the issue is still present).

* ring-buffer: Move access to commit_page up into function usedSteven Rostedt2009-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | With the change of the way we process commits. Where a commit only happens at the outer most level, and that we don't need to worry about a commit ending after the rb_start_commit() has been called, the code use to grab the commit page before the tail page to prevent a possible race. But this race no longer exists with the rb_start_commit() rb_end_commit() interface. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The trace time also goes from 210ns down to 179ns (31ns). I talked with Peter Zijlstra about the impact that sched_clock may have without having interrupts disabled, and he told me that if a timer interrupt comes in, sched_clock may report a wrong time.

* ring-buffer: Add multiple iterations between benchmark timestampsSteven Rostedt2009-11-11

This adds the overhead of the call to gettimeofday to the measurements and does not give an accurate picture of the length of time it takes to record a trace. This was first noticed with perf top: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PerfTop: 679 irqs/sec kernel:99.9% [1000Hz cpu-clock-msecs], (all, 4 CPUs) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ samples pcnt kernel function _______ _____ _______________ 1673.00 - 27.8% : trace_clock_local 806.00 - 13.4% : do_gettimeofday 590.00 - 9.8% : rb_reserve_next_event 554.00 - 9.2% : native_read_tsc 431.00 - 7.2% : ring_buffer_lock_reserve 365.00 - 6.1% : __rb_reserve_next 355.00 - 5.9% : rb_end_commit 322.00 - 5.4% : getnstimeofday 268.00 - 4.5% : ring_buffer_unlock_commit 262.00 - 4.4% : ring_buffer_producer_thread [ring_buffer_benchmark] 113.00 - 1.9% : read_tsc 91.00 - 1.5% : debug_smp_processor_id 69.00 - 1.1% : trace_recursive_unlock 66.00 - 1.1% : ring_buffer_event_data 25.00 - 0.4% : _spin_unlock_irq And the length of each write to the ring buffer measured at 310ns.

It currently returns the length of the space available in the buffer. printf usually returns the amount written. This is not adequate here, because: trace_seq_printf(s, ""); is perfectly legal, and returning 0 would indicate that it failed. We can always see the amount written by looking at the before and after values of s->len. This is not quite the same use as printf. We only care if the string was successfully written to the buffer or not. Make trace_seq_printf() return 0 if the trace oversizes the buffer's free space, 1 otherwise.

While the change itself is a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h does not include virtio_ids.h. This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C files into the header files, making the header files compatible with the old ones. In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

Rationale: QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT expands to QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT which casus the queue unplugged immediately. This is not a good behaviour for at least qemu and kvm where we do have significant overhead for every I/O operations. Even with all the latested speeups (native AIO, MSI support, zero copy) we can only get native speed for up to 128kb I/O requests we already are down to 66% of native performance for 4kb requests even on my laptop running the Intel X25-M SSD for which the QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT was designed. If we ever get virtio-blk overhead low enough that this flag makes sense it should only be set based on a feature flag set by the host.

They prefer clients that actively resend ACK on our SYN-ACK retransmissions to be converted from open requests to sockets and queued to the listener for accepting after the deferring period is finished. Then application server can decide to wait longer for data or to properly terminate the connection with FIN if read() returns EAGAIN which is an indication for accepting after the deferring period. This change still can have side effects for applications that expect always to see data on the accepted socket. Others can be prepared to work in both modes (with or without TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period) and their data processing can ignore the read=EAGAIN notification and to allocate resources for clients which proved to have no data to send during the deferring period. OTOH, servers that use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT=1 as flag (not as a timeout) to wait for data will notice clients that didn't send data for 3 seconds but that still resend ACKs.

How to reproduce: 1. Make a listening AF_UNIX/SOCK_STREAM socket with an abstruct namespace(*), and shutdown(2) it. 2. Repeat connect(2)ing to the listening socket from the other sockets until the connection backlog is full-filled. 3. connect(2) takes the CPU forever. If every core is taken, the system hangs. PoC code: (Run as many times as cores on SMP machines.) int main(void) { int ret; int csd; int lsd; struct sockaddr_un sun; /* make an abstruct name address (*) */ memset(&sun, 0, sizeof(sun)); sun.sun_family = PF_UNIX; sprintf(&sun.sun_path[1], "%d", getpid()); /* create the listening socket and shutdown */ lsd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0); bind(lsd, (struct sockaddr *)&sun, sizeof(sun)); listen(lsd, 1); shutdown(lsd, SHUT_RDWR); /* connect loop */ alarm(15); /* forcely exit the loop after 15 sec */ for (;;) { csd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0); ret = connect(csd, (struct sockaddr *)&sun, sizeof(sun)); if (-1 == ret) { perror("connect()"); break; } puts("Connection OK"); } return 0; } (*) Make sun_path[0] = 0 to use the abstruct namespace. If a file-based socket is used, the system doesn't deadlock because of context switches in the file system layer. Why this happens: Error checks between unix_socket_connect() and unix_wait_for_peer() are inconsistent. The former calls the latter to wait until the backlog is processed. Despite the latter returns without doing anything when the socket is shutdown, the former doesn't check the shutdown state and just retries calling the latter forever. Patch: The patch below adds shutdown check into unix_socket_connect(), so connect(2) to the shutdown socket will return -ECONREFUSED.

We should only clear what was pending at the moment we read the irq source reg. Signed-off-by: Thomas Chou <thomas@wytron.com.tw> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
