* tracing: Extract duplicate ftrace_raw_init_event_foo()Li Zefan2009-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use a generic trace_event_raw_init() function for all event's raw_init callbacks (but kprobes) instead of defining the same version for each of these. This shrinks the kernel code: text data bss dec hex filename 5355293 1961928 7103260 14420481 dc0a01 vmlinux.o.old 5346802 1961864 7103260 14411926 dbe896 vmlinux.o raw_init can't be removed, because ftrace events and kprobe events use different raw_init callbacks. Though it's possible to totally remove raw_init, I choose to leave it as it is for now.

* ring-buffer: Move resize integrity check under reader lockSteven Rostedt2009-12-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While using an application that does splice on the ftrace ring buffer at start up, I triggered an integrity check failure. Looking into this, I discovered that resizing the buffer performs an integrity check after the buffer is resized. This check unfortunately is preformed after it releases the reader lock. If a reader is reading the buffer it may cause the integrity check to trigger a false failure. This patch simply moves the integrity checker under the protection of the ring buffer reader lock.

* ring-buffer: Use sync sched protection on ring buffer resizingSteven Rostedt2009-12-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There was a comment in the ring buffer code that says the calling layers should prevent tracing or reading of the ring buffer while resizing. I have discovered that the tracers do not honor this arrangement. This patch moves the disabling and synchronizing the ring buffer to a higher layer during resizing. This guarantees that no writes are occurring while the resize takes place. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* tracing: Fix wrong usage of strstrip in trace_ksymsThomas Gleixner2009-12-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | strstrip returns a pointer to the first non space character, but the code in parse_ksym_trace_str() ignores that. strstrip is now must_check and therefor we get the correct warning: kernel/trace/trace_ksym.c:294: warning: ignoring return value of ‘strstrip’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result We are really not interested in leading whitespace here.

| * tracing: Remove comparing of NULL to va_list in trace_array_vprintk()Carsten Emde2009-12-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Olof Johansson stated the following: Comparing a va_list with NULL is bogus. It's supposed to be treated like an opaque type and only be manipulated with va_* accessors.

| * tracing: Fix function graph trace_pipe to properly display failed entriesJiri Olsa2009-12-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a case where the graph tracer might get confused and omits displaying of a single record. This applies mostly with the trace_pipe since it is unlikely that the trace_seq buffer will overflow with the trace file. As the function_graph tracer goes through the trace entries keeping a pointer to the current record: current -> func1 ENTRY func2 ENTRY func2 RETURN func1 RETURN When an function ENTRY is encountered, it moves the pointer to the next entry to check if the function is a nested or leaf function. func1 ENTRY current -> func2 ENTRY func2 RETURN func1 RETURN If the rest of the writing of the function fills the trace_seq buffer, then the trace_pipe read will ignore this entry. The next read will Now start at the current location, but the first entry (func1) will be discarded. This patch keeps a copy of the current entry in the iterator private storage and will keep track of when the trace_seq buffer fills. When the trace_seq buffer fills, it will reuse the copy of the entry in the next iteration. [ This patch has been largely modified by Steven Rostedt in order to clean it up and simplify it. The original idea and concept was from Jirka and for that, this patch will go under his name to give him the credit he deserves. But because this was modify by Steven Rostedt anything wrong with the patch should be blamed on Steven. ] Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <1259067458-27143-1-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
| * tracing: Add full state to trace_seqJohannes Berg2009-12-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The trace_seq buffer might fill up, and right now one needs to check the return value of each printf into the buffer to check for that. Instead, have the buffer keep track of whether it is full or not, and reject more input if it is full or would have overflowed with an input that wasn't added.

| * tracing: Buffer the output of seq_file in case of filled bufferSteven Rostedt2009-12-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the seq_read fills the buffer it will call s_start again on the next itertation with the same position. This causes a problem with the function_graph tracer because it consumes the iteration in order to determine leaf functions. What happens is that the iterator stores the entry, and the function graph plugin will look at the next entry. If that next entry is a return of the same function and task, then the function is a leaf and the function_graph plugin calls ring_buffer_read which moves the ring buffer iterator forward (the trace iterator still points to the function start entry). The copying of the trace_seq to the seq_file buffer will fail if the seq_file buffer is full. The seq_read will not show this entry. The next read by userspace will cause seq_read to again call s_start which will reuse the trace iterator entry (the function start entry). But the function return entry was already consumed. The function graph plugin will think that this entry is a nested function and not a leaf. To solve this, the trace code now checks the return status of the seq_printf (trace_print_seq). If the writing to the seq_file buffer fails, we set a flag in the iterator (leftover) and we do not reset the trace_seq buffer. On the next call to s_start, we check the leftover flag, and if it is set, we just reuse the trace_seq buffer and do not call into the plugin print functions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An ftrace plugin can add a pipe_open interface when the user opens trace_pipe. But if the plugin allocates something within the pipe_open it can not free it because there exists no pipe_close. The hook to the trace file open has a corresponding close. The closing of the trace_pipe file should also have a corresponding close. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The variable, "max_delta_ns", is defined as an unsigned long which is a 32-bit integer for 32-bit machines and a 64-bit integer for 64-bit machines (if -m64 option is used for gcc). The value of max_delta_ns is set by calling the function "clockevent_delta2ns()" which returns a maximum value of LONG_MAX. For a 32-bit machine LONG_MAX is equal to 0x7fffffff and in nanoseconds this equates to ~2.15 seconds. Hence, the maximum sleep time for a 32-bit machine is ~2.15 seconds, where as for a 64-bit machine it will be many years. This patch changes the type of max_delta_ns to be "u64" instead of "unsigned long" so that this variable is a 64-bit type for both 32-bit and 64-bit machines. It also changes the maximum value returned by clockevent_delta2ns() to KTIME_MAX. Hence this allows a 32-bit machine to sleep for longer than ~2.15 seconds. Please note that this patch also changes "min_delta_ns" to be "u64" too and although this is unnecessary, it makes the patch simpler as it avoids to fixup all callers of clockevent_delta2ns().

ARM needs such functions as well. Implement a function which calculates the mult/shift factors based on the frequencies to which and from which is converted. The function also has a parameter to specify the minimum conversion range in seconds. This range is guaranteed not to produce a 64bit overflow when a value is multiplied with the calculated mult factor. The larger the conversion range the less becomes the conversion accuracy.

This removes the need for the xtime_cache value, which always stored the time at the last interrupt, so this patch cleans that up removing the xtime_cache related code. This is a bit simpler, but still could use some wider testing.

Then it can be an issue, since we may have to run through the loop a few thousand times, which can increase timer interrupt caused latency. The current solution was to accumulate in half-second intervals with NOHZ. This kept the number of loops down, however it did slightly change how we make NTP adjustments. While not an issue with NTPd users, as NTPd makes adjustments over a longer period of time, other adjtimex() users have noticed the half-second granularity with which we can apply frequency changes to the clock. For instance, if a application tries to apply a 100ppm frequency correction for 20ms to correct a 2us offset, with NOHZ they either get no correction, or a 50us correction. Now, there will always be some granularity error for applying frequency corrections. However with users sensitive to this error have seen a 50-500x increase with NOHZ compared to running without NOHZ. So I figured I'd try another approach then just simply increasing the interval. My approach is to consume the time interval logarithmically. This reduces the number of times through the loop needed keeping latency down, while still preserving the original granularity error for adjtimex() changes. Further, this change allows us to remove the xtime_cache code (patch to follow), as xtime is always within one tick of the current time, instead of the half-second updates it saw before. An earlier version of this patch has been shipping to x86 users in the RedHat MRG releases for awhile without issue, but I've reworked this version to be even more careful about avoiding possible overflows if the shift value gets too large.
