* blktrace: correct remap namesAlan D. Brunelle2009-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This attempts to clarify names utilized during block I/O remap operations (partition, volume manager). It correctly matches up the /from/ information for both device & sector. This takes in the concept from Kosaki Motohiro and extends it to include better naming for the "device_from" field.

* tracing/filters: distinguish between signed and unsigned fieldsTom Zanussi2009-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new filter comparison ops need to be able to distinguish between signed and unsigned field types, so add an is_signed flag/param to the event field struct/trace_define_fields(). Also define a simple macro, is_signed_type() to determine the signedness at compile time, used in the trace macros. If the is_signed_type() macro won't work with a specific type, a new slightly modified version of TRACE_FIELD() called TRACE_FIELD_SIGN(), allows the signedness to be set explicitly.

* tracing: fix cut and paste macro errorSteven Rostedt2009-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In case a module uses the TRACE_EVENT macro for creating automated events in ftrace, it may choose to use a different file name than the defined system name, or choose to use a different path than the default "include/trace/events" include path. If this is done, then before including trace/define_trace.h the header would define either "TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE" for the file name or "TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH" for the include path. If it does not define these, then the define_trace.h defines them instead. If define trace defines them, then define_trace.h should also undefine them before exiting. To do this a macro is used to note this: #ifndef TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE # define TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE TRACE_SYSTEM # define UNDEF_TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE #endif [...] #ifdef UNDEF_TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE # undef TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE # undef UNDEF_TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE #endif The UNDEF_TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE acts as a CPP variable to know to undef the TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE before leaving define_trace.h. Unfortunately, due to cut and paste errors, the macros between FILE and PATH got mixed up.

* tracing/events: provide string with undefined size supportFrederic Weisbecker2009-04-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides the support for dynamic size strings on event tracing. The key concept is to use a structure with an ending char array field of undefined size and use such ability to allocate the minimal size on the ring buffer to make one or more string entries fit inside, as opposite to a fixed length strings with upper bound. The strings themselves are represented using fields which have an offset value from the beginning of the entry. This patch provides three new macros: __string(item, src) This one declares a string to the structure inside TP_STRUCT__entry. You need to provide the name of the string field and the source that will be copied inside. This will also add the dynamic size of the string needed for the ring buffer entry allocation. A stack allocated structure is used to temporarily store the offset of each strings, avoiding double calls to strlen() on each event insertion. __get_str(field) This one will give you a pointer to the string you have created. This is an abstract helper to resolve the absolute address given the field name which is a relative address from the beginning of the trace_structure. __assign_str(dst, src) Use this macro to automatically perform the string copy from src to dst. src must be a variable to assign and dst is the name of a __string field. Example on how to use it: TRACE_EVENT(my_event, TP_PROTO(char *src1, char *src2), TP_ARGS(src1, src2), TP_STRUCT__entry( __string(str1, src1) __string(str2, src2) ), TP_fast_assign( __assign_str(str1, src1); __assign_str(str2, src2); ), TP_printk("%s %s", __get_str(src1), __get_str(src2)) ) Of course you can mix-up any __field or __array inside this TRACE_EVENT. The position of the __string or __assign_str doesn't matter. Changes in v2: Address the suggestion of Steven Rostedt: drop the opening_string() macro and redefine __ending_string() to get the size of the string to be copied instead of overwritting the whole ring buffer allocation. Changes in v3: Address other suggestions of Steven Rostedt and Peter Zijlstra with some changes: drop the __ending_string and the need to have only one string field. Use offsets instead of absolute addresses.

* tracing: create automated trace definesSteven Rostedt2009-04-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch lowers the number of places a developer must modify to add new tracepoints. The current method to add a new tracepoint into an existing system is to write the trace point macro in the trace header with one of the macros TRACE_EVENT, TRACE_FORMAT or DECLARE_TRACE, then they must add the same named item into the C file with the macro DEFINE_TRACE(name) and then add the trace point. This change cuts out the needing to add the DEFINE_TRACE(name). Every file that uses the tracepoint must still include the trace/<type>.h file, but the one C file must also add a define before the including of that file. #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS #include <trace/mytrace.h> This will cause the trace/mytrace.h file to also produce the C code necessary to implement the trace point. Note, if more than one trace/<type>.h is used to create the C code it is best to list them all together. #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS #include <trace/foo.h> #include <trace/bar.h> #include <trace/fido.h> Thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers and Christoph Hellwig for coming up with the cleaner solution of the define above the includes over my first design to have the C code include a "special" header.

* tracing: consolidate trace and trace_event headersSteven Rostedt2009-04-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: clean up Neil Horman (et. al.) criticized the way the trace events were broken up into two files. The reason for that was that ftrace needed to separate out the declarations from where the #include <linux/tracepoint.h> was used. It then dawned on me that the tracepoint.h header only needs to define the TRACE_EVENT macro if it is not already defined. The solution is simply to test if TRACE_EVENT is defined, and if it is not then the linux/tracepoint.h header can define it. This change consolidates all the <traces>.h and <traces>_event_types.h into the <traces>.h file.

| * tracing: remove obsolete TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT macroSteven Rostedt2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: clean up The TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT macro is no longer used by trace points and only the DECLARE_TRACE, TRACE_FORMAT or TRACE_EVENT macros should be used by them. Although the TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT macro is still used by the internal tracing utility, it should not be used in core kernel code. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
| * tracing: convert irq trace points to new macrosSteven Rostedt2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: enhancement Converted the two irq trace point macros. The entry macro copies the name of the irq handler, thus it is better to simply use the TRACE_FORMAT macro which uses the trace_printk. The return of the handler does not need to record the name, thus the faster C style handler is more approriate. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

| * tracing: new format for specialized trace pointsSteven Rostedt2009-03-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: clean up and enhancement The TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT macro looks quite ugly and is limited in its ability to save data as well as to print the record out. Working with Ingo Molnar, we came up with a new format that is much more pleasing to the eye of C developers. This new macro is more C style than the old macro, and is more obvious to what it does. Here's the example. The only updated macro in this patch is the sched_switch trace point. The old method looked like this: TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(sched_switch, TP_PROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev, struct task_struct *next), TP_ARGS(rq, prev, next), TP_FMT("task %s:%d ==> %s:%d", prev->comm, prev->pid, next->comm, next->pid), TRACE_STRUCT( TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, prev_pid, prev->pid) TRACE_FIELD(int, prev_prio, prev->prio) TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL(char next_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN], next_comm, TP_CMD(memcpy(TRACE_ENTRY->next_comm, next->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN))) TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, next_pid, next->pid) TRACE_FIELD(int, next_prio, next->prio) ), TP_RAW_FMT("prev %d:%d ==> next %s:%d:%d") ); The above method is hard to read and requires two format fields. The new method: /* * Tracepoint for task switches, performed by the scheduler: * * (NOTE: the 'rq' argument is not used by generic trace events, * but used by the latency tracer plugin. ) */ TRACE_EVENT(sched_switch, TP_PROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev, struct task_struct *next), TP_ARGS(rq, prev, next), TP_STRUCT__entry( __array( char, prev_comm, TASK_COMM_LEN ) __field( pid_t, prev_pid ) __field( int, prev_prio ) __array( char, next_comm, TASK_COMM_LEN ) __field( pid_t, next_pid ) __field( int, next_prio ) ), TP_printk("task %s:%d [%d] ==> %s:%d [%d]", __entry->prev_comm, __entry->prev_pid, __entry->prev_prio, __entry->next_comm, __entry->next_pid, __entry->next_prio), TP_fast_assign( memcpy(__entry->next_comm, next->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN); __entry->prev_pid = prev->pid; __entry->prev_prio = prev->prio; memcpy(__entry->prev_comm, prev->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN); __entry->next_pid = next->pid; __entry->next_prio = next->prio; ) ); This macro is called TRACE_EVENT, it is broken up into 5 parts: TP_PROTO: the proto type of the trace point TP_ARGS: the arguments of the trace point TP_STRUCT_entry: the structure layout of the entry in the ring buffer TP_printk: the printk format TP_fast_assign: the method used to write the entry into the ring buffer The structure is the definition of how the event will be saved in the ring buffer. The printk is used by the internal tracing in case of an oops, and the kernel needs to print out the format of the record to the console. This the TP_printk gives a means to show the records in a human readable format. It is also used to print out the data from the trace file. The TP_fast_assign is executed directly. It is basically like a C function, where the __entry is the handle to the record. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

This patch addresses this issue by adding a TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL. The format is similar to TRACE_FIELD but looks like so: TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL(type_item, item, cmd) What TRACE_FIELD gave was: TRACE_FIELD(type, item, assign) The TRACE_FIELD would be used in declaring a structure: struct { type item; }; And later assign it via: entry->item = assign; What TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL gives us is: In the declaration of the structure: struct { type_item; }; And the assignment: cmd; This change log will explain the one example used in the patch: TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(sched_switch, TPPROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev, struct task_struct *next), TPARGS(rq, prev, next), TPFMT("task %s:%d ==> %s:%d", prev->comm, prev->pid, next->comm, next->pid), TRACE_STRUCT( TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, prev_pid, prev->pid) TRACE_FIELD(int, prev_prio, prev->prio) TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL(char next_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN], next_comm, TPCMD(memcpy(TRACE_ENTRY->next_comm, next->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN))) TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, next_pid, next->pid) TRACE_FIELD(int, next_prio, next->prio) ), TPRAWFMT("prev %d:%d ==> next %s:%d:%d") ); The struct will be create as: struct { pid_t prev_pid; int prev_prio; char next_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; pid_t next_pid; int next_prio; }; Note the TRACE_ENTRY in the cmd part of TRACE_SPECIAL. TRACE_ENTRY will be set by the tracer to point to the structure inside the trace buffer. entry->prev_pid = prev->pid; entry->prev_prio = prev->prio; memcpy(entry->next_comm, next->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN); entry->next_pid = next->pid; entry->next_prio = next->prio Reported-by: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

The former file will hold the trace/<type>.h files and the latter will hold the trace/<type>_event_types.h files. To create new tracepoints and to have them automatically appear in the event tracer, a developer makes the trace/<type>.h file which includes <linux/tracepoint.h> and the trace/<type>_event_types.h file. The trace/<type>_event_types.h file will hold the TRACE_FORMAT macros. Then add the trace/<type>.h file to trace/trace_events.h, and add the trace/<type>_event_types.h to the trace_event_types.h file. No need to modify files elsewhere.

It can help to evaluate the amount of work each of them have to perform. For example it can help a developer to decide whether he should choose a per cpu workqueue instead of a singlethreaded one. It only traces statistical informations for now but it will probably later provide event tracing too. Such a tracer could help too, and be improved, to help rt priority sorted workqueue development. To have a snapshot of the workqueues state at any time, just do cat /debugfs/tracing/trace_stat/workqueues Ie: 1 125 125 reiserfs/1 1 0 0 scsi_tgtd/1 1 0 0 aio/1 1 0 0 ata/1 1 114 114 kblockd/1 1 0 0 kintegrityd/1 1 2147 2147 events/1 0 0 0 kpsmoused 0 105 105 reiserfs/0 0 0 0 scsi_tgtd/0 0 0 0 aio/0 0 0 0 ata_aux 0 0 0 ata/0 0 0 0 cqueue 0 0 0 kacpi_notify 0 0 0 kacpid 0 149 149 kblockd/0 0 0 0 kintegrityd/0 0 1000 1000 khelper 0 2270 2270 events/0 Changes in V2: _ Drop the static array based on NR_CPU and dynamically allocate the stat array with num_possible_cpus() and other cpu mask facilities.... _ Trace workqueue insertion at a bit lower level (insert_work instead of queue_work) to handle even the workqueue barriers.
