* trace: correct off by one while recording the trace-eventSebastian Andrzej Siewior2017-11-231-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Trace events like raw_syscalls show always a preempt code of one. The reason is that on PREEMPT kernels rcu_read_lock_sched_notrace() increases the preemption counter and the function recording the counter is caller within the RCU section.

* perf: Fix counter of ftrace eventsAndrew Vagin2011-10-041-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each event adds some points to its counters. By default it adds 1, and a number of points may be transmited in event's parameters. E.g. sched:sched_stat_runtime adds how long process has been running. But this functionality was broken by v2.6.31-rc5-392-gf413cdb and now the event's parameters doesn't affect on a number of points. TP_perf_assign isn't defined, so __perf_count(c) isn't executed and __count is always equal to 1.

* tracing: Replace trace_event struct array with pointer arraySteven Rostedt2011-02-021-11/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the trace_event structures are placed in the _ftrace_events section, and at link time, the linker makes one large array of all the trace_event structures. On boot up, this array is read (much like the initcall sections) and the events are processed. The problem is that there is no guarantee that gcc will place complex structures nicely together in an array format. Two structures in the same file may be placed awkwardly, because gcc has no clue that they are suppose to be in an array. A hack was used previous to force the alignment to 4, to pack the structures together. But this caused alignment issues with other architectures (sparc). Instead of packing the structures into an array, the structures' addresses are now put into the _ftrace_event section. As pointers are always the natural alignment, gcc should always pack them tightly together (otherwise initcall, extable, etc would also fail). By having the pointers to the structures in the section, we can still iterate the trace_events without causing unnecessary alignment problems with other architectures, or depending on the current behaviour of gcc that will likely change in the future just to tick us kernel developers off a little more. The _ftrace_event section is also moved into the .init.data section as it is now only needed at boot up.

* tracing/events: Show real number in array fieldsSteven Rostedt2010-11-191-4/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we have in something like the sched_switch event: field:char prev_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1; When a userspace tool such as perf tries to parse this, the TASK_COMM_LEN is meaningless. This is done because the TRACE_EVENT() macro simply uses a #len to show the string of the length. When the length is an enum, we get a string that means nothing for tools. By adding a static buffer and a mutex to protect it, we can store the string into that buffer with snprintf and show the actual number. Now we get: field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1; Something much more useful. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __print_flags() and __print_symbolic() use percpu trace_seq: 1) Its memory is allocated at compile time, it wastes memory if we don't use tracing. 2) It is percpu data and it wastes more memory for multi-cpus system. 3) It disables preemption when it executes its core routine "trace_seq_printf(s, "%s: ", #call);" and introduces latency. So we move this trace_seq to struct trace_iterator.

* tracing: Use class->reg() for all registering of eventsSteven Rostedt2010-06-281-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because kprobes and syscalls need special processing to register events, the class->reg() method was created to handle the differences. But instead of creating a default ->reg for perf and ftrace events, the code was scattered with: if (class->reg) class->reg(); else default_reg(); This is messy and can also lead to bugs. This patch cleans up this code and creates a default reg() entry for the events allowing for the code to directly call the class->reg() without the condition.

Perhaps even making a special system structure would work since the initialization is the same for all events within a system. But since there's no system structure (yet), this will just move it to the class. text data bss dec hex filename 4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig 4900375 1053380 861512 6815267 67fe23 vmlinux.fields 4900382 1048964 861512 6810858 67ecea vmlinux.init The text grew very slightly, but this is a constant growth that happened with the changing of the C files that call the init code.

| * | | tracing: Move fields from event to class structureSteven Rostedt2010-05-141-5/+6

Since the fields of the event are defined by the class they belong to, it makes sense to have the class hold the information instead of the individual events. The events of the same class would just hold duplicate information. After this change the size of the kernel dropped another 3K: text data bss dec hex filename 4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig 4900252 1057412 861512 6819176 680d68 vmlinux.regs 4900375 1053380 861512 6815267 67fe23 vmlinux.fields Although the text increased, this was mainly due to the C files having to adapt to the change. This is a constant increase, where new tracepoints will not increase the Text. But the big drop is in the data size (as well as needed allocations to hold the fields). This will give even more savings as more tracepoints are created. Note, if just TRACE_EVENT()s are used and not DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() with several DEFINE_EVENT()s, then the savings will be lost. But we are pushing developers to consolidate events with DEFINE_EVENT() so this should not be an issue. The kprobes define a unique class to every new event, but are dynamic so it should not be a issue. The syscalls however have a single class but the fields for the individual events are different. The syscalls use a metadata to define the fields. I moved the fields list from the event to the metadata and added a "get_fields()" function to the class. This function is used to find the fields. For normal events and kprobes, get_fields() just returns a pointer to the fields list_head in the class. For syscall events, it returns the fields list_head in the metadata for the event. v2: Fixed the syscall fields. The syscall metadata needs a list of fields for both enter and exit.

The registering of a event is now down directly in the trace_events.c file. The tracepoint_probe_register() is now called directly. The prototypes are no longer type checked, but this should not be an issue since the tracepoints are created automatically by the macros. If a prototype is incorrect in the TRACE_EVENT() macro, then other macros will catch it. The trace_event_class structure now holds the probes to be called by the callbacks. This removes needing to have each event have a separate pointer for the probe. To handle kprobes and syscalls, since they register probes in a different manner, a "reg" field is added to the ftrace_event_class structure. If the "reg" field is assigned, then it will be called for enabling and disabling of the probe for either ftrace or perf. To let the reg function know what is happening, a new enum (trace_reg) is created that has the type of control that is needed. With this new rework, the 82 kernel events and 618 syscall events has their footprint dramatically lowered: text data bss dec hex filename 4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig 4914025 1088868 861512 6864405 68be15 vmlinux.class 4918492 1084612 861512 6864616 68bee8 vmlinux.tracepoint 4900252 1057412 861512 6819176 680d68 vmlinux.regs The size went from 6863829 to 6819176, that's a total of 44K in savings. With tracepoints being continuously added, this is critical that the footprint becomes minimal. v5: Added #ifdef CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS around a reference to perf specific structure in trace_events.c. v4: Fixed trace self tests to check probe because regfunc no longer exists. v3: Updated to handle void *data in beginning of probe parameters. Also added the tracepoint: check_trace_callback_type_##call(). v2: Changed the callback probes to pass void * and typecast the value within the function.

| * | | tracing: Let tracepoints have data passed to tracepoint callbacksSteven Rostedt2010-05-141-7/+7

The created functions from DECLARE_TRACE() now need a mandatory data parameter. For example: DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, int value, value) Will create the register function: int register_trace_mytracepoint((void(*)(void *data, int value))probe, void *data); As the first argument, all callbacks (probes) must take a (void *data) parameter. So a callback for the above tracepoint will look like: void myprobe(void *data, int value) { } The callback may choose to ignore the data parameter. This change allows callbacks to register a private data pointer along with the function probe. void mycallback(void *data, int value); register_trace_mytracepoint(mycallback, mydata); Then the mycallback() will receive the "mydata" as the first parameter before the args. A more detailed example: DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(int status), TP_ARGS(status)); /* In the C file */ DEFINE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(int status), TP_ARGS(status)); [...] trace_mytracepoint(status); /* In a file registering this tracepoint */ int my_callback(void *data, int status) { struct my_struct my_data = data; [...] } [...] my_data = kmalloc(sizeof(*my_data), GFP_KERNEL); init_my_data(my_data); register_trace_mytracepoint(my_callback, my_data); The same callback can also be registered to the same tracepoint as long as the data registered is different. Note, the data must also be used to unregister the callback: unregister_trace_mytracepoint(my_callback, my_data); Because of the data parameter, tracepoints declared this way can not have no args. That is: DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(void), TP_ARGS()); will cause an error. If no arguments are needed, a new macro can be used instead: DECLARE_TRACE_NOARGS(mytracepoint); Since there are no arguments, the proto and args fields are left out. This is part of a series to make the tracepoint footprint smaller: text data bss dec hex filename 4913961 1088356 861512 6863829 68bbd5 vmlinux.orig 4914025 1088868 861512 6864405 68be15 vmlinux.class 4918492 1084612 861512 6864616 68bee8 vmlinux.tracepoint Again, this patch also increases the size of the kernel, but lays the ground work for decreasing it. v5: Fixed net/core/drop_monitor.c to handle these updates. v4: Moved the DECLARE_TRACE() DECLARE_TRACE_NOARGS out of the #ifdef CONFIG_TRACE_POINTS, since the two are the same in both cases. The __DECLARE_TRACE() is what changes. Thanks to Frederic Weisbecker for pointing this out. v3: Made all register_* functions require data to be passed and all callbacks to take a void * parameter as its first argument. This makes the calling functions comply with C standards. Also added more comments to the modifications of DECLARE_TRACE(). v2: Made the DECLARE_TRACE() have the ability to pass arguments and added a new DECLARE_TRACE_NOARGS() for tracepoints that do not need any arguments.

In both cases we have a template tracepoint handler, used to record the trace, to which we pass our ftrace event instance. In the function level, if the class is named "foo" and the event is named "blah", we have the following chain of calls: perf_trace_blah() -> perf_trace_templ_foo() In the case we have several events sharing the class "blah", we'll have multiple users of perf_trace_templ_foo(), and it won't be inlined by the compiler. This is usually what happens with the DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS/DEFINE_EVENT based definition. But if perf_trace_blah() is the only caller of perf_trace_templ_foo() there are fair chances that it will be inlined. The problem is that we fetch the regs from perf_trace_templ_foo() after we rewinded the frame pointer to the second caller, we want to reach the caller of perf_trace_blah() to get the right source of the event. And we do this by always assuming that perf_trace_templ_foo() is not inlined. But as shown above this is not always true. And if it is inlined we miss the first caller, losing the most important level of precision. We get: 61.31% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_softirq | --- do_softirq irq_exit do_IRQ common_interrupt | |--25.00%-- tty_buffer_request_room Instead of: 61.31% ls [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __do_softirq | --- __do_softirq do_softirq irq_exit do_IRQ common_interrupt | |--25.00%-- tty_buffer_request_room To fix this, we fetch the regs from perf_trace_blah() rather than perf_trace_templ_foo() so that we don't have to deal with inlining surprises. That also bring us the advantage of having the true source of the event even if we don't have frame pointers.

Either we use get_irq_regs(), which gives us the interrupted registers if we are in an interrupt, or we use task_pt_regs() which gives us the state before we entered the kernel, assuming we are lucky enough to be no kernel thread, in which case task_pt_regs() returns the initial set of regs when the kernel thread was started. What we want is different. We need a hot snapshot of the regs, so that we can get the instruction pointer to record in the sample, the frame pointer for the callchain, and some other things. Let's use the new perf_fetch_caller_regs() for that.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce ftrace_perf_buf_prepare() and ftrace_perf_buf_submit() to gather the common code that operates on raw events sampling buffer. This cleans up redundant code between regular trace events, syscall events and kprobe events. Changelog v1->v2: - Rename function name as per Masami and Frederic's suggestion - Add __kprobes for ftrace_perf_buf_prepare() and make ftrace_perf_buf_submit() inline as per Masami's suggestion - Export ftrace_perf_buf_prepare since modules will use it Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> LKML-Reference: <4B60E92D.9000808@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

If both PERF_EVENTS and | EVENT_TRACING is enabled we should expose generic tracepoints. | | Nor is it limited to event 'profiling', so it has become a misnomer as | well.

* | | tracing: Fix ftrace_event_call alignment for use with gcc 4.5Jeff Mahoney2010-02-251-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GCC 4.5 introduces behavior that forces the alignment of structures to use the largest possible value. The default value is 32 bytes, so if some structures are defined with a 4-byte alignment and others aren't declared with an alignment constraint at all - it will align at 32-bytes. For things like the ftrace events, this results in a non-standard array. When initializing the ftrace subsystem, we traverse the _ftrace_events section and call the initialization callback for each event. When the structures are misaligned, we could be treating another part of the structure (or the zeroed out space between them) as a function pointer. This patch forces the alignment for all the ftrace_event_call structures to 4 bytes. Without this patch, the kernel fails to boot very early when built with gcc 4.5. It's trivial to check the alignment of the members of the array, so it might be worthwhile to add something to the build system to do that automatically. Unfortunately, that only covers this case. I've asked one of the gcc developers about adding a warning when this condition is seen.

* | | tracing: Add notrace to TRACE_EVENT implementation functionsSteven Rostedt2010-02-161-13/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The functions used to implement the TRACE_EVENT macro show up in function tracing. This is considered a distraction, and these should not be displayed. For example: <idle>-0 [000] 57.202149: task_of <-update_stats_wait_end <idle>-0 [000] 57.202149: ftrace_raw_event_sched_stat_wait <-update_stats_wait_end <idle>-0 [000] 57.202150: ftrace_raw_event_id_sched_stat_template <-ftrace_raw_event_sched_stat_wait <idle>-0 [000] 57.202150: sched_stat_wait: comm=sshd pid=2735 delay=19207 [ns] The "ftrace_raw_event_*" traces are just the utility functions used by TRACE_EVENT tracepoints.

| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is part of a patch set that removes the show_format method in the ftrace event macros. The print_fmt field is added to hold the string that shows the print_fmt in the event format files. This patch only adds the field but it is currently not used. Later patches will use this field to enable us to remove the show_format field and function.
