| * | | | | | | | | | | | | | tracing: add filter event logic to special, mmiotrace and boot tracersSteven Rostedt2009-09-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that the pluging tracers use macros to create the structures and automate the exporting of their formats to the format files, they also automatically get a filter file. This patch adds the code to implement the filter logic in the trace recordings. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

It uses the new trace_entries.h file to automate the creation of the format files to ensure that they are always in sync with the actual structures. This is the same methodology used to create the format files for the TRACE_EVENT macro. This also updates the filter creation that was built on the creation of the format files.

| * | | | | | | | | | | | | | tracing: show details of structures within the ftrace structuresSteven Rostedt2009-09-12

The output of a field saying it is just a structure is useless for a format file. A binary reader of the ring buffer needs to know more about how the fields are broken up. This patch adds to the ftrace structure macros new fields to describe the structures inside a structure. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

That is, the format files in debugfs/tracing/events/ftrace/*/format are currently created by hand. This is a maintenance nightmare, and can easily become out of sync with what is actually shown. This patch uses the methodology of the TRACE_EVENT macros to build the structures so that their formats can be automated and this will keep the structures in sync with what users can see. This patch only changes the way the structures are created. Further patches will build off of this to automate the format files. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

It only traces the functions on the CPU where the task it is following is on. If a task is woken on one CPU but then migrates to another CPU before it wakes up, the latency tracer will then start tracing functions on the other CPU. To find which CPU the task is on, the wakeup function tracer performs a task_cpu(wakeup_task). But to make sure the task does not disappear it grabs the wakeup_lock, which is also taken when the task wakes up. By taking this lock, the function tracer does not need to worry about the task being freed as it checks its cpu. Jan Blunck found a problem with this approach on his 32 CPU box. When a task is being traced by the wakeup tracer, all functions take this lock. That means that on all 32 CPUs, each function call is taking this one lock to see if the task is on that CPU. This lock has just serialized all functions on all 32 CPUs. Needless to say, this caused major issues on that box. It would even lockup. This patch changes the wakeup latency to insert a probe on the migrate task tracepoint. When a task changes its CPU that it will run on, the probe will take note. Now the wakeup function tracer no longer needs to take the lock. It only compares the current CPU with a variable that holds the current CPU the task is on. We don't worry about races since it is OK to add or miss a function trace.

No generic netlink families except for the controller family are made namespace aware, they need to be checked one by one and then set the family->netnsok member to true. A new function genlmsg_multicast_netns() is introduced to allow sending a multicast message in a given namespace, for example when it applies to an object that lives in that namespace, a new function genlmsg_multicast_allns() to send a message to all network namespaces (for objects that do not have an associated netns). The function genlmsg_multicast() is changed to multicast the message in just init_net, which is currently correct for all generic netlink families since they only work in init_net right now. Some will later want to work in all net namespaces because they do not care about the netns at all -- those will have to be converted to use one of the new functions genlmsg_multicast_allns() or genlmsg_multicast_netns() whenever they are made netns aware in some way. After this patch families can easily decide whether or not they should be available in all net namespaces. Many genl families us it for objects not related to networking and should therefore be available in all namespaces, but that will have to be done on a per family basis. Note that this doesn't touch on the checkpoint/restart problem where network namespaces could be used, genl families and multicast groups are numbered globally and I see no easy way of changing that, especially since it must be possible to multicast to all network namespaces for those families that do not care about netns.

This patch makes the external version of tracing_reset safe from corruption by disabling the ring buffer and calling synchronize_sched. This version can no longer be called from interrupt context. But all those callers have been removed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
| * | | | | | | | | | | | | | tracing: use timestamp to determine start of latency tracesSteven Rostedt2009-09-04

Unfortunately if a commit is in process (due to a trace event), this can corrupt the ring buffer. When this happens, the ring buffer will detect the corruption and then permanently disable the ring buffer. The bug does not crash the system, but it does prevent further tracing after the bug is hit. Instead of reseting the trace buffers, the timestamp of the start of the trace is used instead. The buffers will still contain the previous data, but the output will not count any data that is before the timestamp of the trace. Note, this only affects the static trace output (trace) and not the runtime trace output (trace_pipe). The runtime trace output does not make sense for the latency tracers anyway.

The new function to reset the the buffers is tracing_reset_online_cpus. The reason for this is that resetting the buffers while the event trace points are active can corrupt the buffers, because they may be writing at the time of reset. The tracing_reset_online_cpus disables writes and waits for current writers to finish. This patch replaces all users of tracing_reset except for the latency tracers. Those changes require more work and will be removed in the following patches. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Since then we added a generic ring buffer and we handle the copies differently now. Unfortunately, we never copied the critical section information, and we lost the output: # => started at: kmem_cache_alloc # => ended at: kmem_cache_alloc This patch adds back the critical start and end copying as well as removes the unused "trace_idx" and "overrun" fields of the trace_array_cpu structure.

Most users of the RB_WARN_ON pass in the CPU buffer, so only the one CPU buffer gets disabled but the rest are still active. This may confuse users even though a warning is sent to the console. This patch changes the macro to disable the entire buffer even if the CPU buffer is passed in. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

This uses the ring buffer data to calculate this. Because discarded events are also counted, the numbers do not match the number of items that are printed. The ring buffer also adds a "padding" item to the end of each buffer page which also gets counted as a discarded item. This patch decrements the counter to the page entries on a discard. This allows us to ignore discarded entries while reading the buffer. Decrementing the counter is still safe since it can only happen while the committing flag is still set.

This function provides no safety nets and is very race prone. An item may be safely removed from the ring buffer before it is committed with the ring_buffer_discard_commit. Since there are currently no users of this function, and because this function is racey and error prone, this patch removes it altogether. Note, removing this function also allows the counters to ignore all discarded events (patches will follow). Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The reason is that the last entry of a page is usually padding if the page is not full. The padding will not be returned to the user. The problem arises on ring_buffer_read because it also increments the iterator. Because both the read and peek use the same rb_iter_peek, the rb_iter_peak will return the padding but also increment to the next item. This is because the ring_buffer_peek will not incerment it itself. The ring_buffer_read will increment it again and then call rb_iter_peek again to get the next item. But that will be the second item, not the first one on the page. The reason this never showed up before, is because the ftrace utility always calls ring_buffer_peek first and only uses ring_buffer_read to increment to the next item. The ring_buffer_peek will always keep the pointer to a valid item and not padding. This just hid the bug. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
