| * tracing: fix return value to registering eventsSteven Rostedt2009-03-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The registering of events had the return value check backwards. A zero returned is success, the check had it as a failure. This patch also fixes a missing "\n" in the warning that the check failed. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> 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>

| | * | tracing: add raw fast tracing interface for trace eventsSteven Rostedt2009-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the interface to enable the C style trace points. In the directory /debugfs/tracing/events/subsystem/event We now have three files: enable : values 0 or 1 to enable or disable the trace event. available_types: values 'raw' and 'printf' which indicate the tracing types available for the trace point. If a developer does not use the TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT macro and just uses the TRACE_FORMAT macro, then only 'printf' will be available. This file is read only. type: values 'raw' or 'printf'. This indicates which type of tracing is active for that trace point. 'printf' is the default and if 'raw' is not available, this file is read only. # echo raw > /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/type # echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/enable Will enable the C style tracing for the sched_wakeup trace point.

But it required a printf format string and parsing. Although, this adds the ability to get guaranteed information like task names and such, it took a hit in overhead processing. This processing can add about 500-1000 nanoseconds overhead, but in some cases that too is considered too much and we want to shave off as much from this overhead as possible. Tom Zanussi recently posted tracing patches to lkml that are based on a nice idea about capturing the data via C structs using STRUCT_ENTER, STRUCT_EXIT type of macros. I liked that method very much, but did not like the implementation that required a developer to add data/code in several disjoint locations. This patch extends the event_tracer macros to do a similar "raw C" approach that Tom Zanussi did. But instead of having the developers needing to tweak a bunch of code all over the place, they can do it all in one macro - preferably placed near the code that it is tracing. That makes it much more likely that tracepoints will be maintained on an ongoing basis by the code they modify. The new macro TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT is created for this approach. (Note, a developer may still utilize the more low level DECLARE_TRACE macros if they don't care about getting their traces automatically in the event tracer.) They can also use the existing TRACE_FORMAT if they don't need to code the tracepoint in C, but just want to use the convenience of printf. So if the developer wants to "hardwire" a tracepoint in the fastest possible way, and wants to acquire their data via a user space utility in a raw binary format, or wants to see it in the trace output but not sacrifice any performance, then they can implement the faster but more complex TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT macro. Here's what usage looks like: TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(name, TPPROTO(proto), TPARGS(args), TPFMT(fmt, fmt_args), TRACE_STUCT( TRACE_FIELD(type1, item1, assign1) TRACE_FIELD(type2, item2, assign2) [...] ), TPRAWFMT(raw_fmt) ); Note name, proto, args, and fmt, are all identical to what TRACE_FORMAT uses. name: is the unique identifier of the trace point proto: The proto type that the trace point uses args: the args in the proto type fmt: printf format to use with the event printf tracer fmt_args: the printf argments to match fmt TRACE_STRUCT starts the ability to create a structure. Each item in the structure is defined with a TRACE_FIELD TRACE_FIELD(type, item, assign) type: the C type of item. item: the name of the item in the stucture assign: what to assign the item in the trace point callback raw_fmt is a way to pretty print the struct. It must match the order of the items are added in TRACE_STUCT An example of this would be: TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(sched_wakeup, TPPROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p, int success), TPARGS(rq, p, success), TPFMT("task %s:%d %s", p->comm, p->pid, success?"succeeded":"failed"), TRACE_STRUCT( TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, pid, p->pid) TRACE_FIELD(int, success, success) ), TPRAWFMT("task %d success=%d") ); This creates us a unique struct of: struct { pid_t pid; int success; }; And the way the call back would assign these values would be: entry->pid = p->pid; entry->success = success; The nice part about this is that the creation of the assignent is done via macro magic in the event tracer. Once the TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT is created, the developer will then have a faster method to record into the ring buffer. They do not need to worry about the tracer itself. The developer would only need to touch the files in include/trace/*.h Again, I would like to give special thanks to Tom Zanussi for this nice idea.

| | * | tracing: add interface to write into current tracer bufferSteven Rostedt2009-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now all tracers must manage their own trace buffers. This was to enforce tracers to be independent in case we finally decide to allow each tracer to have their own trace buffer. But now we are adding event tracing that writes to the current tracer's buffer. This adds an interface to allow events to write to the current tracer buffer without having to manage its own. Since event tracing has no "tracer", and is just a way to hook into any other tracer. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

If include/trace/irq_event_types.h has: #define TRACE_SYSTEM irq at the top and #undef TRACE_SYSTEM at the bottom, then a directory "irq" will be created in the /debug/tracing/events directory. Inside that directory will contain the two trace points that are defined in include/trace/irq_event_types.h. Only adding the above to irq and not to sched, we get: # ls /debug/tracing/events/ irq sched_process_exit sched_signal_send sched_wakeup_new sched_kthread_stop sched_process_fork sched_switch sched_kthread_stop_ret sched_process_free sched_wait_task sched_migrate_task sched_process_wait sched_wakeup # ls /debug/tracing/events/irq irq_handler_entry irq_handler_exit If we add #define TRACE_SYSTEM sched to the trace/sched_event_types.h then the rest of the trace events will be put in a sched directory within the events directory. I've been playing with this idea of the subsystem for a while, but recently Tom Zanussi posted some patches to lkml that included this method. Tom's approach was clean and got me to finally put some effort to clean up the event trace points. Thanks to Tom Zanussi for demonstrating how nice the subsystem method is.

| | * | tracing: move trace point formats to files in include/trace directorySteven Rostedt2009-02-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: clean up To further facilitate the ease of adding trace points for developers, this patch creates include/trace/trace_events.h and include/trace/trace_event_types.h. 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix compile warning and clean up When I first wrote __tracing_open, instead of passing the error code via the ERR_PTR macros, I lazily used a separate parameter to hold the return for errors. When Frederic Weisbecker updated that function, he used the Linux kernel ERR_PTR for the returns.

This patch converts the entire function to use the Linux kernel ERR_PTR macro methods. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

In this case, the secondary console semaphore would be left locked, and the primary semaphore would be released twice. This in turn would cause the console switch on suspend or resume to hang forever. Note that suspend_console does not actually lock the console for clients that use acquire_console_sem, it only locks it for clients that use try_acquire_console_sem. If we change suspend_console to fully lock the console, then the kernel may deadlock on suspend. One client of try_acquire_console_sem is acquire_console_semaphore_for_printk, which uses it to prevent printk from using the console while it is suspended.

* | | | tracing/core: make the read callbacks reentrantsFrederic Weisbecker2009-02-25

Until now, a single global mutex (trace_types_lock) serialized the access to tracing_read_pipe(), tracing_splice_read_pipe(), and the seq helpers. Ie: it means that if a user tries to read trace_pipe0 and trace_pipe1 at the same time, the access to the function tracing_read_pipe() is contended and one reader must wait for the other to finish its read call. The trace_type_lock mutex is mostly here to serialize the access to the global current tracer (current_trace), which can be changed concurrently. Although the iter struct keeps a private pointer to this tracer, its callbacks can be changed by another function. The method used here is to not keep anymore private reference to the tracer inside the iterator but to make a copy of it inside the iterator. Then it checks on subsequents read calls if the tracer has changed. This is not costly because the current tracer is not expected to be changed often, so we use a branch prediction for that. Moreover, we add a private mutex to the iterator (there is one iterator per file descriptor) to serialize the accesses in case of multiple consumers per file descriptor (which would be a silly idea from the user). Note that this is not to protect the ring buffer, since the ring buffer already serializes the readers accesses. This is to prevent from traces weirdness in case of concurrent consumers. But these mutexes can be dropped anyway, that would not result in any crash. Just tell me what you think about it.

* | | | tracing/core: introduce per cpu tracing filesFrederic Weisbecker2009-02-25

It's a reader but not a consumer It doesn't block when no more traces are available. - trace pretty similar to the former, except that it adds more informations such as prempt count, irq flag, ... - trace_pipe is a reader and a consumer, it will also block waiting for traces if necessary (heh, yes it's a pipe). The traces coming from different cpus are curretly mixed up inside these files. Sometimes it messes up the informations, sometimes it's useful, depending on what does the tracer capture. The tracing_cpumask file is useful to filter the output and select only the traces captured a custom defined set of cpus. But still it is not enough powerful to extract at the same time one trace buffer per cpu. So this patch creates a new directory: /debug/tracing/per_cpu/. Inside this directory, you will now find one trace_pipe file and one trace file per cpu. Which means if you have two cpus, you will have: trace0 trace1 trace_pipe0 trace_pipe1 And of course, reading these files will have the same effect than with the usual tracing files, except that you will only see the traces from the given cpu. The original all-in-one cpu trace file are still available on their original place. Until now, only one consumer was allowed on trace_pipe to avoid racy consuming on the ring-buffer. Now the approach changed a bit, you can have only one consumer per cpu. Which means you are allowed to read concurrently trace_pipe0 and trace_pipe1 But you can't have two readers on trace_pipe0 or trace_pipe1. Following the same logic, if there is one reader on the common trace_pipe, you can not have at the same time another reader on trace_pipe0 or in trace_pipe1. Because in trace_pipe is already a consumer in all cpu buffers in essence.
