2009-08-27tracing: remove legacy select of MARKERS by context switch tracingSteven Rostedt
The context switch tracer was made before tracepoints were mature, and the original version used markers. This is no longer true and this patch removes the select. Reported-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2009-08-27tracing: Restore the const qualifier for field names and types definitionFrederic Weisbecker
Restore the const qualifier in field's name and type parameters of trace_define_field that was lost while solving a conflict. Fields names and types are defined as builtin constant strings in static TRACE_EVENTs. But kprobes allocates these dynamically. That said, we still want to always pass these strings as const char * in trace_define_fields() to avoid any further accidental writes on the pointed strings.

2009-08-27tracing: Add kprobe-based event tracerMasami Hiramatsu
Add kprobes-based event tracer on ftrace. This tracer is similar to the events tracer which is based on Tracepoint infrastructure. Instead of Tracepoint, this tracer is based on kprobes (kprobe and kretprobe). It probes anywhere where kprobes can probe(this means, all functions body except for __kprobes functions). Similar to the events tracer, this tracer doesn't need to be activated via current_tracer, instead of that, just set probe points via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events. And you can set filters on each probe events via /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/<EVENT>/filter. This tracer supports following probe arguments for each probe. %REG : Fetch register REG sN : Fetch Nth entry of stack (N >= 0) sa : Fetch stack address. @ADDR : Fetch memory at ADDR (ADDR should be in kernel) @SYM[+|-offs] : Fetch memory at SYM +|- offs (SYM should be a data symbol) aN : Fetch function argument. (N >= 0) rv : Fetch return value. ra : Fetch return address. +|-offs(FETCHARG) : fetch memory at FETCHARG +|- offs address. See Documentation/trace/kprobetrace.txt in the next patch for details. Changes from v13: - Support 'sa' for stack address. - Use call->data instead of container_of() macro.

2009-08-26tracing: Check invalid syscall nr while tracing syscallsHendrik Brueckner
Most arch syscall_get_nr() implementations returns -1 if the syscall number is not valid. Accessing the bit field without a check might result in a kernel oops (at least I saw it on s390 for ftrace selftest). Before this change, this problem did not occur, because the invalid syscall number (-1) caused syscall_nr_to_meta() to return NULL. There are at least two scenarios where syscall_get_nr() can return -1: 1. For example, ptrace stores an invalid syscall number, and thus, tracing code resets it. (see do_syscall_trace_enter in arch/s390/kernel/ptrace.c) 2. The syscall_regfunc() (kernel/tracepoint.c) sets the TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE (now: TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT) flag for all threads which include kernel threads. However, the ftrace selftest triggers a kernel oops when testing syscall trace points: - The kernel thread is started as ususal (do_fork()), - tracing code sets TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE, - the ret_from_fork() function is triggered and starts ftrace_syscall_exit() with an invalid syscall number. To avoid these scenarios, I suggest to check the syscall_nr. For instance, the ftrace selftest fails for s390 (with config option CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS set) and produces the following kernel oops.

2009-08-26tracing/filters: Support filtering for char * stringsLi Zefan
Usually, char * entries are dangerous in traces because the string can be released whereas a pointer to it can still wait to be read from the ring buffer. But sometimes we can assume it's safe, like in case of RO data (eg: __file__ or __line__, used in bkl trace event). If these RO data are in a module and so is the call to the trace event, then it's safe, because the ring buffer will be flushed once this module get unloaded. To allow char * to be treated as a string: TRACE_EVENT(..., TP_STRUCT__entry( __field_ext(const char *, name, FILTER_PTR_STRING) ... ) ... ); The filtering will not dereference "char *" unless the developer explicitly sets FILTER_PTR_STR in __field_ext.

The "format" file of a trace event is originally for parsers to parse ftrace binary output. But the "format" file of a syscall event can only be used by perfcounter, because it describes the format of struct syscall_enter_record not struct syscall_trace_enter. To fix this, we remove struct syscall_enter_record, and then struct syscall_trace_enter will be used by both perf profile and ftrace.

2009-08-12Remove double removal of blktrace directoryAlan D. Brunelle
commit fd51d251e4cdb21f68e9dbc4336514d64a105a79 Author: Stefan Raspl <raspl@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Date: Tue May 19 09:59:08 2009 +0200 blktrace: remove debugfs entries on bad path added in an explicit invocation of debugfs_remove for bt->dir, in blk_remove_buf_file_callback we are also getting the directory removed. On occasion I am seeing memory corruption that I have bisected down to this commit. [The testing involves a (long) series of I/O benchmarks with blktrace invoked around the actual runs.] I believe that this committed patch is correct, but the problem actually lies in the code in blk_remove_buf_file_callback. With this patch I am able to consistently get complete runs whereas previously I could not get a single run to complete. The first part of the patch simply moves the debugfs_remove below the relay_close: the relay_close call will remove files under bt->dir, and so we should not remove the directory until all the files we created have been removed. (Note: This is not sufficient to fix the problem - the file system code has ref counts on the directoy, so our invocation does not cause the directory to actually be removed. Nonetheless, we should not rely upon that feature.) Signed-off-by: Alan D. Brunelle <alan.brunelle@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

In this case if a PERF_TYPE_TRACEPOINT counter is active and a tracepoint fires, we emit the tracepoint binary record to the perfcounter event buffer, as a sample.

For that we need to have an instant access to the perf counter attribute. This is a matter of a flag to add in the struct ftrace_event. - Take care of the events recursivity! Don't ever try to record a lock event for example, it seems some locking is used in the profiling fast path and lead to a tracing recursivity. That will be fixed using raw spinlock or recursivity protection. - [...] - Profit! :-) Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@cs.helsinki.fi> Cc: Gabriel Munteanu <eduard.munteanu@linux360.ro> Cc: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-08-09Merge branch 'linus' into tracing/urgentIngo Molnar

2009-08-08tracing/filters: Don't use pred on alloc failureTom Zanussi
Dan Carpenter sent me a fix to prevent pred from being used if it couldn't be allocated. This updates his patch for the same problem in the tracing tree (which has changed this code quite substantially).

It's a static checker complaining rather than problems at runtime...
2009-08-08tracing/filters: Always free pred on filter_add_subsystem_pred() failureTom Zanussi
If filter_add_subsystem_pred() fails due to ENOSPC or ENOMEM, the pred doesn't get freed, while as a side effect it does for other errors. Make it so the caller always frees the pred for any error.
