2014-07-16tracing: Change apply_subsystem_event_filter() paths to check file->system ↵Oleg Nesterov
== dir filter_free_subsystem_preds(), filter_free_subsystem_filters() and replace_system_preds() can simply check file->system->subsystem and avoid strcmp(call->class->system). Better yet, we can pass "struct ftrace_subsystem_dir *dir" instead of event_subsystem and just check file->system == dir. Thanks to Namhyung Kim who pointed out that replace_system_preds() can be changed too.

2014-07-16tracing/uprobes: Kill the dead TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CALL_FILTER logicOleg Nesterov
alloc_trace_uprobe() sets TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CALL_FILTER for unknown reason and this is simply wrong. Fortunately this has no effect because register_uprobe_event() clears call->flags after that. Kill both. This trace_uprobe was kzalloc'ed and we rely on this fact anyway.

2014-07-16tracing: Kill destroy_call_preds()Oleg Nesterov
Remove destroy_call_preds(). Its only caller, __trace_remove_event_call(), can use free_event_filter() and nullify ->filter by hand. Perhaps we could keep this trivial helper although imo it is pointless, but then it should be static in trace_events.c.

2014-07-16tracing: Kill destroy_preds() and destroy_file_preds()Oleg Nesterov
destroy_preds() makes no sense. The only caller, event_remove(), actually wants destroy_file_preds(). __trace_remove_event_call() does destroy_call_preds() which takes care of call->filter. And after the previous change we can simply remove destroy_preds() from event_remove(), we are going to call remove_event_from_tracers() which in turn calls remove_event_file_dir()->free_event_filter().

2014-07-16ftrace: Allow archs to specify if they need a separate function graph trampolineSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Currently if an arch supports function graph tracing, the core code will just assign the function graph trampoline to the function graph addr that gets called. But as the old method for function graph tracing always calls the function trampoline first and that calls the function graph trampoline, some archs may have the function graph trampoline dependent on operations that were done in the function trampoline. This causes function graph tracer to break on those archs. Instead of having the default be to set the function graph ftrace_ops to the function graph trampoline, have it instead just set it to zero which will keep it from jumping to a trampoline that is not set up to be jumped directly too.

2014-07-15ring-buffer: Fix polling on trace_pipeMartin Lau
ring_buffer_poll_wait() should always put the poll_table to its wait_queue even there is immediate data available. Otherwise, the following epoll and read sequence will eventually hang forever: 1. Put some data to make the trace_pipe ring_buffer read ready first 2. epoll_ctl(efd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, trace_pipe_fd, ee) 3. epoll_wait() 4. read(trace_pipe_fd) till EAGAIN 5. Add some more data to the trace_pipe ring_buffer 6. epoll_wait() -> this epoll_wait() will block forever ~ During the epoll_ctl(efd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD,...) call in step 2, ring_buffer_poll_wait() returns immediately without adding poll_table, which has poll_table->_qproc pointing to ep_poll_callback(), to its wait_queue. ~ During the epoll_wait() call in step 3 and step 6, ring_buffer_poll_wait() cannot add ep_poll_callback() to its wait_queue because the poll_table->_qproc is NULL and it is how epoll works. ~ When there is new data available in step 6, ring_buffer does not know it has to call ep_poll_callback() because it is not in its wait queue. Hence, block forever. Other poll implementation seems to call poll_wait() unconditionally as the very first thing to do. For example, tcp_poll() in tcp.c.

2014-07-15tracing: Fix graph tracer with stack tracer on other archsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Running my ftrace tests on PowerPC, it failed the test that checks if function_graph tracer is affected by the stack tracer. It was. Looking into this, I found that the update_function_graph_func() must be called even if the trampoline function is not changed. This is because archs like PowerPC do not support ftrace_ops being passed by assembly and instead uses a helper function (what the trampoline function points to). Since this function is not changed even when multiple ftrace_ops are added to the code, the test that falls out before calling update_function_graph_func() will miss that the update must still be done.

2014-07-01tracing: Make trace_seq_putmem_hex() more robustSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Currently trace_seq_putmem_hex() can only take as a parameter a pointer to something that is 8 bytes or less, otherwise it will overflow the buffer. This is protected by a macro that encompasses the call to trace_seq_putmem_hex() that has a BUILD_BUG_ON() for the variable before it is passed in. This is not very robust and if trace_seq_putmem_hex() ever gets used outside that macro it will cause issues.

2014-07-01ftrace: Optimize function graph to be called directlySteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Function graph tracing is a bit different than the function tracers, as it is processed after either the ftrace_caller or ftrace_regs_caller and we only have one place to modify the jump to ftrace_graph_caller, the jump needs to happen after the restore of registeres. The function graph tracer is dependent on the function tracer, where even if the function graph tracing is going on by itself, the save and restore of registers is still done for function tracing regardless of if function tracing is happening, before it calls the function graph code. If there's no function tracing happening, it is possible to just call the function graph tracer directly, and avoid the wasted effort to save and restore regs for function tracing. This requires adding new flags to the dyn_ftrace records: FTRACE_FL_TRAMP FTRACE_FL_TRAMP_EN The first is set if the count for the record is one, and the ftrace_ops associated to that record has its own trampoline. That way the mcount code can call that trampoline directly. In the future, trampolines can be added to arbitrary ftrace_ops, where you can have two or more ftrace_ops registered to ftrace (like kprobes and perf) and if they are not tracing the same functions, then instead of doing a loop to check all registered ftrace_ops against their hashes, just call the ftrace_ops trampoline directly, which would call the registered ftrace_ops function directly.

This reverts commit 43fe98913c9f67e3b523615ee3316f9520a623e0. This patch is very wrong. Firstly, this change leads to unbalanced uprobe_unregister(). Just for example, # perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall # echo 1 >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/probe_libc/enable # perf record -e probe_libc:syscall whatever after that uprobe is dead (unregistered) but the user of ftrace/perf can't know this, and it looks as if nobody hits this probe. This would be easy to fix, but there are other reasons why it is not simple to mix ftrace and perf. If nothing else, they can't share the same ->consumer.filter. This is fixable too, but probably we need to fix the poorly designed uprobe_register() interface first. At least "register" and "apply" should be clearly separated.

2014-06-30ftrace: Allow no regs if no more callbacks require itSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
When registering a function callback for the function tracer, the ops can specify if it wants to save full regs (like an interrupt would) for each function that it traces, or if it does not care about regs and just wants to have the fastest return possible. Once a ops has registered a function, if other ops register that function they all will receive the regs too. That's because it does the work once, it does it for everyone. Now if the ops wanting regs unregisters the function so that there's only ops left that do not care about regs, those ops will still continue getting regs and going through the work for it on that function. This is because the disabling of the rec counter only sees the ops registered, and does not see the ops that are still attached, and does not know if the current ops that are still attached want regs or not. To play it safe, it just keeps regs being processed until no function is registered anymore. Instead of doing that, check the ops that are still registered for that function and if none want regs for it anymore, then disable the processing of regs.

The check that tests if ftrace_trace_arrays is empty in top_trace_array(), uses the .prev pointer: if (list_empty(ftrace_trace_arrays.prev)) instead of testing the variable itself: if (list_empty(&ftrace_trace_arrays)) Although it is technically correct, it is awkward and confusing. Use the proper method. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/87oay1bas8.fsf@sejong.aot.lge.com Reported-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-06-10tracing: Fix leak of per cpu max data in instancesSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The freeing of an instance, if max data is configured, there will be per cpu data structures created. But these are not freed when the instance is deleted, which causes a memory leak. A new helper function is added that frees the individual buffers within a trace array, instead of duplicating the code. This way changes made for one are applied to the other (normal buffer vs max buffer).

2014-06-10ring-buffer: Check if buffer exists before pollingSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The per_cpu buffers are created one per possible CPU. But these do not mean that those CPUs are online, nor do they even exist. With the addition of the ring buffer polling, it assumes that the caller polls on an existing buffer. But this is not the case if the user reads trace_pipe from a CPU that does not exist, and this causes the kernel to crash. Simple fix is to check the cpu against buffer bitmask against to see if the buffer was allocated or not and return -ENODEV if it is not. More updates were done to pass the -ENODEV back up to userspace.

2014-06-06tracing: Fix memory leak on instance deletionSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
When an instance is created, it also gets a snapshot ring buffer allocated (with minimum of pages). But when it is deleted the snapshot buffer is not. There was a helper function added to match the allocation of these ring buffers to a way to free them, but it wasn't used by the deletion of an instance. Using that helper function solves this memory leak. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-06-06tracing: Fix leak of ring buffer data when new instances creation failsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Yoshihiro Yunomae reported that the ring buffer data for a trace instance does not get properly cleaned up when it fails. He proposed a patch that manually cleaned the data up and addad a bunch of labels. The labels are not needed because all trace array is allocated with a kzalloc which initializes it to 0 and all kfree()s can take a NULL pointer and will ignore it. Adding a new helper function free_trace_buffers() that can also take null buffers to free the buffers that were allocated by allocate_trace_buffers().

2014-06-06tracing: Return error if ftrace_trace_arrays list is emptyYoshihiro YUNOMAE
ftrace_trace_arrays links global_trace.list. However, global_trace is not added to ftrace_trace_arrays if trace_alloc_buffers() failed. As the result, ftrace_trace_arrays becomes an empty list. If ftrace_trace_arrays is an empty list, current top_trace_array() returns an invalid pointer. As the result, the kernel can induce memory corruption or panic. Current implementation does not check whether ftrace_trace_arrays is empty list or not. So, in this patch, if ftrace_trace_arrays is empty list, top_trace_array() returns NULL. Moreover, this patch makes all functions calling top_trace_array() handle it appropriately.

2014-06-06tracing: Only calculate stats of tracepoint benchmarks for 2^32 timesSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
When calculating the average and standard deviation, it is required that the count be less than UINT_MAX, otherwise the do_div() will get undefined results. After 2^32 counts of data, the average and standard deviation should pretty much be set anyway. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-06-05tracing: Convert stddev into u64 in tracepoint benchmarkSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
I've been told that do_div() expects an unsigned 64 bit number, and is undefined if a signed is used. This gave a warning on the MIPS build. I'm not sure if a signed 64 bit dividend is really an issue or not, but the calculation this is used for is standard deviation, and that isn't going to be negative. We can just convert it to unsigned and be safe. Reported-by: David Daney <ddaney.cavm@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-06-05tracing: Introduce saved_cmdlines_size fileYoshihiro YUNOMAE
Introduce saved_cmdlines_size file for changing the number of saved pid-comms. saved_cmdlines currently stores 128 command names using SAVED_CMDLINES, but 'no-existing processes' names are often lost in saved_cmdlines when we read the trace data. So, by introducing saved_cmdlines_size file, we can now change the 128 command names saved to something much larger if needed. When we write a value to saved_cmdlines_size, the number of the value will be stored in pid-comm list: # echo 1024 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/saved_cmdlines_size Here, 1024 command names can be stored. The default number is 128 and the maximum number is PID_MAX_DEFAULT (=32768 if CONFIG_BASE_SMALL is not set). So, if we want to avoid losing any command names, we need to set 32768 to saved_cmdlines_size. We can read the maximum number of the list: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/saved_cmdlines_size 128 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/p/20140605012427.22115.16173.stgit@yunodevel Signed-off-by: Yoshihiro YUNOMAE <yoshihiro.yunomae.ez@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
