* Test kernel tracing events capabilitiestracing-develAndrea Bastoni2009-12-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Can events be applied to LITMUS code instead of sched_task_trace ? PROS: - architectural indipendency - easy porting on newer kernel version - lock free ring buffer implementation already there CONS: - need userspace tools conversion to slightly different format - is it possible to replicate all the previous functionalities? - only sched_trace_* functions can be implemented through events, TRACE() debugging features are still implemented in the old way (??? cannot we simply use the tracing features of the kernel for debugging purposes ????)

| * Add a tracepoint for block request remappingJun'ichi Nomura2009-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 2.6.31 now has request-based device-mapper, it's useful to have a tracepoint for request-remapping as well as bio-remapping. This patch adds a tracepoint for request-remapping, trace_block_rq_remap().

| * ext4: Add a stub for mpage_da_data in the trace headerJosh Stone2009-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tracepoint ext4_da_write_pages has a struct mpage_da_data* parameter, but that struct is only defined in fs/ext4/ext4.h. This patch adds a forward declaration for that struct, so this tracepoint header can still be used by tools like SystemTap.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The /proc/fs/jbd2/<dev>/history was maintained manually; by using tracepoints, we can get all of the existing functionality of the /proc file plus extra capabilities thanks to the ftrace infrastructure.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The /proc/fs/ext4/<dev>/mb_history was maintained manually, and had a number of problems: it required a largish amount of memory to be allocated for each ext4 filesystem, and the s_mb_history_lock introduced a CPU contention problem. By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4 tracepoints, etc. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
| * ext4: Adjust ext4_da_writepages() to write out larger contiguous chunksTheodore Ts'o2009-09-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Work around problems in the writeback code to force out writebacks in larger chunks than just 4mb, which is just too small. This also works around limitations in the ext4 block allocator, which can't allocate more than 2048 blocks at a time. So we need to defeat the round-robin characteristics of the writeback code and try to write out as many blocks in one inode before allowing the writeback code to move on to another inode. We add a a new per-filesystem tunable, max_writeback_mb_bump, which caps this to a default of 128mb per inode. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

When analysing performance, it can be important to distinguish between pages coming from the per-cpu allocator and pages coming from the buddy lists as the latter requires the zone lock to the taken and more data structures to be examined. This patch adds a trace event for __rmqueue reporting when a page is being allocated from the buddy lists. It distinguishes between being called to refill the per-cpu lists or whether it is a high-order allocation. Similarly, this patch adds an event to catch when the PCP lists are being drained a little and pages are going back to the buddy lists. This is trickier to draw conclusions from but high activity on those events could explain why there were a large number of cache misses on a page-allocator-intensive workload. The coalescing and splitting of buddies involves a lot of writing of page metadata and cache line bounces not to mention the acquisition of an interrupt-safe lock necessary to enter this path.

* | | tracing, page-allocator: add trace events for anti-fragmentation falling ↵Mel Gorman2009-09-22

In the event this is not possible, __rmqueue_fallback() selects a different list and in some circumstances change the migratetype of the pageblock. Simplistically, the more times this event occurs, the more likely that fragmentation will be a problem later for hugepage allocation at least but there are other considerations such as the order of page being split to satisfy the allocation. This patch adds a trace event for __rmqueue_fallback() that reports what page is being used for the fallback, the orders of relevant pages, the desired migratetype and the migratetype of the lists being used, whether the pageblock changed type and whether this event is important with respect to fragmentation avoidance or not. This information can be used to help analyse fragmentation avoidance and help decide whether min_free_kbytes should be increased or not.

Using the events, it will be known what struct page and pfns are being allocated and freed and what the call site was in many cases. The page alloc tracepoints be used as an indicator as to whether the workload was heavily dependant on the page allocator or not. You can make a guess based on vmstat but you can't get a per-process breakdown. Depending on the call path, the call_site for page allocation may be __get_free_pages() instead of a useful callsite. Instead of passing down a return address similar to slab debugging, the user should enable the stacktrace and seg-addr options to get a proper stack trace. The pagevec free tracepoint has a different usecase. It can be used to get a idea of how many pages are being dumped off the LRU and whether it is kswapd doing the work or a process doing direct reclaim.

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging, monitoring, analysis facility. Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem 'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and less appropriate. All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion) The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well. Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and suggested a rename. User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to keep the size down.) This patch has been generated via the following script: FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config') sed -i \ -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \ -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \ -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \ -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \ -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \ -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \ $FILES for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g') mv $N $M done FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*) sed -i \ -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \ -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \ -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \ -e 's/counter/event/g' \ -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \ $FILES ... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches is the smallest: the end of the merge window. Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch. ( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but in case there's something left where 'counter' would be better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. ) Suggested-by: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Reviewed-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: "David S.

But this may be too much for the stack, as the events can have large statically defined field size and can also grow with dynamic arrays. Allocate two per cpu buffer for all profiled events. The first cpu buffer is used to host every non-nmi context traces. It is protected by disabling the interrupts while writing and committing the trace. The second buffer is reserved for nmi. So that there is no race between them and the first buffer. The whole write/commit section is rcu protected because we release these buffers while deactivating the last profiling trace event. v2: Move the buffers from trace_event to be global, as pointed by Steven Rostedt. v3: Fix the syscall events to handle the profiling buffer races by disabling interrupts, now that the buffers are globals.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The latency tracers (irqsoff and wakeup) can swap trace buffers on the fly. If an event is happening and has reserved data on one of the buffers, and the latency tracer swaps the global buffer with the max buffer, the result is that the event may commit the data to the wrong buffer. This patch changes the API to the trace recording to be recieve the buffer that was used to reserve a commit. Then this buffer can be passed in to the commit.

* | | tracing: Fix double CPP substitution in TRACE_EVENT_FNFrederic Weisbecker2009-08-28

This leads to a double substitution in some cases. For example, a bad consequence is a format always prefixed by "%s, %s\n" for every TRACE_EVENT_FN based events. Eg: cat /debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter/format [...] print fmt: "%s, %s\n", "\"NR %ld (%lx, %lx, %lx, %lx, %lx, %lx)\"",\ "REC->id, REC->args[0], REC->args[1], REC->args[2], REC->args[3],\ REC->args[4], REC->args[5]" This creates a failure in post-processing tools such as perf trace or trace-cmd. Then drop this double substitution and replace it by a new __cpparg() macro that relays CPP arguments containing commas.
