| * | tracing: Move the tracing_on/off() declarations into CONFIG_TRACINGSteven Rostedt2012-03-201-6/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The tracing_on/off() declarations were under CONFIG_RING_BUFFER, but the functions are now only defined under CONFIG_TRACING as they are specific to ftrace and not the ring buffer. But the declarations were still defined under the ring buffer and this caused the build to fail when CONFIG_RING_BUFFER was set but CONFIG_TRACING was not.

| * | tracing/ring-buffer: Only have tracing_on disable tracing buffersSteven Rostedt2012-02-221-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As the ring-buffer code is being used by other facilities in the kernel, having tracing_on file disable *all* buffers is not a desired affect. It should only disable the ftrace buffers that are being used. Move the code into the trace.c file and use the buffer disabling for tracing_on() and tracing_off(). This way only the ftrace buffers will be affected by them and other kernel utilities will not be confused to why their output suddenly stopped. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

However, when kexec is used to boot into a kernel, the TSC value would be carried over from the previous kernel. The computation of cycns_offset in set_cyc2ns_scale is prone to an overflow, if the machine has been up more than 208 days prior to the kexec. The overflow happens when we multiply *scale, even though there is enough room to store the final answer. We fix this issue by decomposing tsc_now into the quotient and remainder of division by CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR and then performing the multiplication separately on the two components. Refactor code to share the calculation with the previous fix in __cycles_2_ns().

Fudge around it by storing the text in a per-cpu buffer and poll it using the existing printk_tick() handler. This will drop output when its more frequent than once a tick, however only the affinity thing could possible go that fast and for that just one should suffice to notify the admin he's done something silly..

(modern x86 Intel CPUs with the 'LBR' hardware feature currently.) This new feature is basically a sophisticated 'magnifying glass' for branch execution - something that is pretty difficult to extract from regular, function histogram centric profiles. The simplest mode is activated via 'perf record -b', and the result looks like this in perf report: $ perf record -b any_call,u -e cycles:u branchy $ perf report -b --sort=symbol 52.34% [.] main [.] f1 24.04% [.] f1 [.] f3 23.60% [.] f1 [.] f2 0.01% [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn [k] _IO_file_overflow 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] _IO_new_file_xsputn 0.01% [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal [k] strchrnul 0.01% [k] __printf [k] _IO_vfprintf_internal 0.01% [k] main [k] __printf This output shows from/to branch columns and shows the highest percentage (from,to) jump combinations - i.e. the most likely taken branches in the system. "branches" can also include function calls and any other synchronous and asynchronous transitions of the instruction pointer that are not 'next instruction' - such as system calls, traps, interrupts, etc. This feature comes with (hopefully intuitive) flat ascii and TUI support in perf report. - Various 'perf annotate' visual improvements for us assembly junkies. It will now recognize function calls in the TUI and by hitting enter you can follow the call (recursively) and back, amongst other improvements. - Multiple threads/processes recording support in perf record, perf stat, perf top - which is activated via a comma-list of PIDs: perf top -p 21483,21485 perf stat -p 21483,21485 -ddd perf record -p 21483,21485 - Support for per UID views, via the --uid paramter to perf top, perf report, etc. For example 'perf top --uid mingo' will only show the tasks that I am running, excluding other users, root, etc. - Jump label restructurings and improvements - this includes the factoring out of the (hopefully much clearer) include/linux/static_key.h generic facility: struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_FALSE; ... if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... static_key_slow_inc(); ... The static_key_false() branch will be generated into the code with as little impact to the likely code path as possible. the static_key_slow_*() APIs flip the branch via live kernel code patching. This facility can now be used more widely within the kernel to micro-optimize hot branches whose likelihood matches the static-key usage and fast/slow cost patterns. - SW function tracer improvements: perf support and filtering support. - Various hardenings of the perf.data ABI, to make older perf.data's smoother on newer tool versions, to make new features integrate more smoothly, to support cross-endian recording/analyzing workflows better, etc. - Restructuring of the kprobes code, the splitting out of 'optprobes', and a corner case bugfix. - Allow the tracing of kernel console output (printk). - Improvements/fixes to user-space RDPMC support, allowing user-space self-profiling code to extract PMU counts without performing any system calls, while playing nice with the kernel side. - 'perf bench' improvements - ... and lots of internal restructurings, cleanups and fixes that made these features possible. And, as usual this list is incomplete as there were also lots of other improvements * 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (120 commits) perf report: Fix annotate double quit issue in branch view mode perf report: Remove duplicate annotate choice in branch view mode perf/x86: Prettify pmu config literals perf report: Enable TUI in branch view mode perf report: Auto-detect branch stack sampling mode perf record: Add HEADER_BRANCH_STACK tag perf record: Provide default branch stack sampling mode option perf tools: Make perf able to read files from older ABIs perf tools: Fix ABI compatibility bug in print_event_desc() perf tools: Enable reading of perf.data files from different ABI rev perf: Add ABI reference sizes perf report: Add support for taken branch sampling perf record: Add support for sampling taken branch perf tools: Add code to support PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK x86/kprobes: Split out optprobe related code to kprobes-opt.c x86/kprobes: Fix a bug which can modify kernel code permanently x86/kprobes: Fix instruction recovery on optimized path perf: Add callback to flush branch_stack on context switch perf: Disable PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_* when not supported perf/x86: Add LBR software filter support for Intel CPUs ...

In system-wide mode, that means it is possible to capture only user level branches. The builtin SW LBR filter needs to disassemble code based on LBR captured addresses. For that, it needs to know the task the addresses are associated with. Because of context switches, the content of the branch stack buffer may contain addresses from different tasks. We need a callback on context switch to either flush the branch stack or save it. This patch adds a new callback in struct pmu which is called during context switches. The callback is called only when necessary. That is when a system-wide context has, at least, one event which uses PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK. The callback is never called for per-thread context. In this version, the Intel x86 code simply flushes (resets) the LBR on context switches (fills it with zeroes). Those zeroed branches are then filtered out by the SW filter.

The ability to capture taken branches is very useful for all sorts of analysis. For instance, basic block profiling, call counts, statistical call graph. This new capability requires hardware assist and as such may not be available on all HW platforms. On Intel x86 it is implemented on top of the Last Branch Record (LBR) facility. To enable taken branches sampling, the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK bit must be set in attr->sample_type. Sampled taken branches may be filtered by type and/or priv levels. The patch adds a new field, called branch_sample_type, to the perf_event_attr structure. It contains a bitmask of filters to apply to the sampled taken branches. Filters may be implemented in HW. If the HW filter does not exist or is not good enough, some arch may also implement a SW filter. The following generic filters are currently defined: - PERF_SAMPLE_USER only branches whose targets are at the user level - PERF_SAMPLE_KERNEL only branches whose targets are at the kernel level - PERF_SAMPLE_HV only branches whose targets are at the hypervisor level - PERF_SAMPLE_ANY any type of branches (subject to priv levels filters) - PERF_SAMPLE_ANY_CALL any call branches (may incl. syscall on some arch) - PERF_SAMPLE_ANY_RET any return branches (may incl. syscall returns on some arch) - PERF_SAMPLE_IND_CALL indirect call branches Obviously filter may be combined. The priv level bits are optional. If not provided, the priv level of the associated event are used. It is possible to collect branches at a priv level different from the associated event. Use of kernel, hv priv levels is subject to permissions and availability (hv). The number of taken branch records present in each sample may vary based on HW, the type of sampled branches, the executed code. Therefore each sample contains the number of taken branches it contains.

It should also address the various misconceptions and confusions that surround jump labels. Typical usage scenarios: #include <linux/static_key.h> struct static_key key = STATIC_KEY_INIT_TRUE; if (static_key_false(&key)) do unlikely code else do likely code Or: if (static_key_true(&key)) do likely code else do unlikely code The static key is modified via: static_key_slow_inc(&key); ... static_key_slow_dec(&key); The 'slow' prefix makes it abundantly clear that this is an expensive operation. I've updated all in-kernel code to use this everywhere. Note that I (intentionally) have not pushed through the rename blindly through to the lowest levels: the actual jump-label patching arch facility should be named like that, so we want to decouple jump labels from the static-key facility a bit. On non-jump-label enabled architectures static keys default to likely()/unlikely() branches.

If the space ' ' is used as a separator, the right side of the assignment needs to be enclosed in double quotes '"', e.g.: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == do_execve,sys_*,ext*)' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve,sys_*,ext*")' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve sys_* ext*")' ls The '==' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_filter file. The '!=' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_notrace file. The right side of the '!=', '==' operators is list of functions or regexp. to be added to filter separated by space. The '||' operator is used for connecting multiple filter definitions together. It is possible to have more than one '==' and '!=' operators within one filter string.

The perf_event struct statically contains ftrace_ops as a handle for function tracer. The function tracer is registered/unregistered in open/close actions. To be efficient, we enable/disable ftrace_ops each time the traced process is scheduled in/out (via TRACE_REG_PERF_(ADD|DELL) handlers). This way tracing is enabled only when the process is running. Intentionally using this way instead of the event's hw state PERF_HES_STOPPED, which would not disable the ftrace_ops. It is now possible to use function trace within perf commands like: perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf stat -e ftrace:function ls Allowed only for root.

The change follows the same way as 'global' ftrace_ops are done. Introducing 2 global ftrace_ops - control_ops and ftrace_control_list which take over all ftrace_ops registered with FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL flag. In addition new per cpu flag called 'disabled' is also added to ftrace_ops to provide the control information for each cpu. When ftrace_ops with FTRACE_OPS_FL_CONTROL is registered, it is set as disabled for all cpus. The ftrace_control_list contains all the registered 'control' ftrace_ops. The control_ops provides function which iterates ftrace_control_list and does the check for 'disabled' flag on current cpu. Adding 3 inline functions: ftrace_function_local_disable/ftrace_function_local_enable - enable/disable the ftrace_ops on current cpu ftrace_function_local_disabled - get disabled ftrace_ops::disabled value for current cpu Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1329317514-8131-2-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com Acked-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Exec is an important major event in the life of a task, like fork(), clone() or exit(), all of which we already trace. [ We also do scheduling re-balancing during exec() - so it's useful from a scheduler instrumentation POV as well. ] If you want to watch a task start up, when it gets exec'ed is a good place to start. With the addition of this tracepoint, exec's can be monitored and better picture of general system activity can be obtained. This tracepoint will also enable better process life tracking, allowing you to answer questions like "what process keeps starting up binary X?". This tracepoint can also be useful in ftrace filtering and trigger conditions: i.e. starting or stopping filtering when exec is called.

And this also solves the problem where the same tracepoint may be used inside a rcu_idle_exit() section as well as outside of one. I added a new tracepoint function with a "_rcuidle" extension. All tracepoints can be used with either the normal "trace_foobar()" function, or the "trace_foobar_rcuidle()" function when inside a rcu_idle_exit() section. All tracepoints defined by TRACE_EVENT() or any of the derivatives will have a "_rcuidle()" function also defined. When a tracepoint is used within an rcu_idle_exit() section, the "_rcuidle()" version must be used. This denotes that the tracepoint is within rcu_idle_exit() and it allows the rcu read locks within the tracepoint to still be valid, as this version takes us out of rcu_idle_exit(). Another nice aspect about this patch is that "static inline"s are not compiled into text when not used. So only the tracepoints that actually use the _rcuidle() version will have them defined in the actual text that is booted.
