* rtla: Define syscall numbers for riscvAndreas Schwab2022-07-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | RISC-V uses the same (generic) syscall numbers as ARM64. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/mvma68wl2ul.fsf@suse.de Signed-off-by: Andreas Schwab <schwab@suse.de> Acked-by: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
* rtla: Fix double freeAndreas Schwab2022-07-311-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Avoid double free by making trace_instance_destroy indempotent. When trace_instance_init fails, it calls trace_instance_destroy, but its only caller osnoise_destroy_tool calls it again.

* rtla: Fix Makefile when called from -C tools/Daniel Bristot de Oliveira2022-07-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sedat Dilek reported an error on rtla Makefile when running: $ make -C tools/ clean [...] make[2]: Entering directory '/home/dileks/src/linux-kernel/git/tools/tracing/rtla' [...] '/home/dileks/src/linux-kernel/git/Documentation/tools/rtla' /bin/sh: 1: test: rtla-make[2]:: unexpected operator <------ The problem rm: cannot remove '/home/dileks/src/linux-kernel/git': Is a directory make[2]: *** [Makefile:120: clean] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory This occurred because the rtla calls kernel's Makefile to get the version in silence mode, e.g., $ make -sC ../../.. kernelversion 5.19.0-rc4 But the -s is being ignored when rtla's makefile is called indirectly, so the output looks like this: $ make -C ../../.. kernelversion make: Entering directory '/root/linux' 5.19.0-rc4 make: Leaving directory '/root/linux' Using 'grep -v make' avoids this problem, e.g., $ make -C ../../.. kernelversion | grep -v make 5.19.0-rc4 Thus, add | grep -v make.

* rtla: Remove procps-ng dependencyDaniel Bristot de Oliveira2022-05-264-24/+88
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Daniel Wagner reported to me that readproc.h got deprecated. Also, while the procps-ng library was available on Fedora, it was not available on RHEL, which is a piece of evidence that it was not that used. rtla uses procps-ng only to find the PID of the tracers' workload. I used the procps-ng library to avoid reinventing the wheel. But in this case, reinventing the wheel took me less time than the time we already took trying to work around problems. Implement a function that reads /proc/ entries, checking if: - the entry is a directory - the directory name is composed only of digits (PID) - the directory contains the comm file - the comm file contains a comm that matches the tracers' workload prefix. - then return true; otherwise, return false. And use it instead of procps-ng.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the -a/--auto <arg in us> option. This option sets some commonly used options while debugging the system. It aims to help users produce reports in the field, reducing the number of arguments passed to the tool in the first approach to a problem. It is equivalent to setting osnoise/stop_tracing_us with the argument, setting tracing_thresh to 1 us, and saving the trace to osnoise_trace.txt file if the trace is stopped automatically.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rtla timerlat tool is an interface for the timerlat tracer. The timerlat tracer dispatches a kernel thread per-cpu. These threads set a periodic timer to wake themselves up and go back to sleep. After the wakeup, they collect and generate useful information for the debugging of operating system timer latency. The timerlat tracer outputs information in two ways. It periodically prints the timer latency at the timer IRQ handler and the Thread handler. It also provides information for each noise via the osnoise tracepoints. The rtla timerlat top mode displays a summary of the periodic output from the timerlat tracer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rtla is a meta-tool that includes a set of commands that aims to analyze the real-time properties of Linux. But instead of testing Linux as a black box, rtla leverages kernel tracing capabilities to provide precise information about the properties and root causes of unexpected results. rtla --help works and provide information about the available options. This is just the "main" and the Makefile, no function yet.

* tools/latency-collector: Use correct size when writing queue_full_warningViktor Rosendahl2021-10-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | queue_full_warning is a pointer, so it is wrong to use sizeof to calculate the number of characters of the string it points to. The effect is that we only print out the first few characters of the warning string. The correct way is to use strlen(). We don't need to add 1 to the strlen() because we don't want to write the terminating null character to stdout.

* tracing/tools: Add the latency-collector to tools directoryViktor Rosendahl2021-02-124-0/+2153
This is a tool that is intended to work around the fact that the preemptoff, irqsoff, and preemptirqsoff tracers only work in overwrite mode. The idea is to act randomly in such a way that we do not systematically lose any latencies, so that if enough testing is done, all latencies will be captured. If the same burst of latencies is repeated, then sooner or later we will have captured all the latencies. It also works with the wakeup_dl, wakeup_rt, and wakeup tracers. However, in that case it is probably not useful to use the random sleep functionality. The reason why it may be desirable to catch all latencies with a long test campaign is that for some organizations, it's necessary to test the kernel in the field and not practical for developers to work iteratively with field testers. Because of cost and project schedules it is not possible to start a new test campaign every time a latency problem has been fixed. It uses inotify to detect changes to /sys/kernel/tracing/trace. When a latency is detected, it will either sleep or print immediately, depending on a function that act as an unfair coin toss. If immediate print is chosen, it means that we open /sys/kernel/tracing/trace and thereby cause a blackout period that will hide any subsequent latencies. If sleep is chosen, it means that we wait before opening /sys/kernel/tracing/trace, by default for 1000 ms, to see if there is another latency during this period. If there is, then we will lose the previous latency. The coin will be tossed again with a different probability, and we will either print the new latency, or possibly a subsequent one. The probability for the unfair coin toss is chosen so that there is equal probability to obtain any of the latencies in a burst. However, this assumes that we make an assumption of how many latencies there can be. By default the program assumes that there are no more than 2 latencies in a burst, the probability of immediate printout will be: 1/2 and 1 Thus, the probability of getting each of the two latencies will be 1/2. If we ever find that there is more than one latency in a series, meaning that we reach the probability of 1, then the table will be expanded to: 1/3, 1/2, and 1 Thus, we assume that there are no more than three latencies and each with a probability of 1/3 of being captured. If the probability of 1 is reached in the new table, that is we see more than two closely occurring latencies, then the table will again be extended, and so on. On my systems, it seems like this scheme works fairly well, as long as the latencies we trace are long enough, 300 us seems to be enough. This userspace program receive the inotify event at the end of a latency, and it has time until the end of the next latency to react, that is to open /sys/kernel/tracing/trace. Thus, if we trace latencies that are >300 us, then we have at least 300 us to react. The minimum latency will of course not be 300 us on all systems, it will depend on the hardware, kernel version, workload and configuration. Example usage: In one shell, give the following command: sudo latency-collector -rvv -t preemptirqsoff -s 2000 -a 3 This will trace latencies > 2000us with the preemptirqsoff tracer, using random sleep with maximum verbosity, with a probability table initialized to a size of 3. In another shell, generate a few bursts of latencies: root@host:~# modprobe preemptirq_delay_test delay=3000 test_mode=alternate burst_size=3 root@host:~# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger root@host:~# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger root@host:~# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger root@host:~# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/preemptirq_delay_test/trigger If all goes well, you should be getting stack traces that shows all the different latencies, i.e. you should see all the three functions preemptirqtest_0, preemptirqtest_1, preemptirqtest_2 in the stack traces.
