At OLS I had a lot of interest to be able to have the ftrace buffers
dumped on panic. Usually one would expect to uses kexec and examine
the buffers after a new kernel is loaded. But sometimes the resources
do not permit kdump and kexec, so having an option to still see the
sequence of events up to the crash is very advantageous.
This patch adds the option to have the ftrace buffers dumped to the
console in the latency_trace format on a panic. When the option is set,
the default entries per CPU buffer are lowered to 16384, since the writing
to the serial (if that is the console) may take an awful long time
otherwise.
[
Changes since -v1:
Got alpine to send correctly (as well as spell check working).
Removed config option.
Moved the static variables into ftrace_dump itself.
Gave printk a log level.

Based on Randy Dunlap's suggestion, the ftrace_printk kernel-doc belongs
with the ftrace_printk macro that should be used. Not with the
__ftrace_printk internal function.

This patch adds a feature that can help kernel developers debug their
code using ftrace.
int ftrace_printk(const char *fmt, ...);
This records into the ftrace buffer using printf formatting. The entry
size in the buffers are still a fixed length. A new type has been added
that allows for more entries to be used for a single recording.
The start of the print is still the same as the other entries.
It returns the number of characters written to the ftrace buffer.
For example:
Having a module with the following code:
static int __init ftrace_print_test(void)
{
ftrace_printk("jiffies are %ld\n", jiffies);
return 0;
}
Gives me:
insmod-5441 3...1 7569us : ftrace_print_test: jiffies are 4296626666
for the latency_trace file and:
insmod-5441 [03] 1959.370498: ftrace_print_test jiffies are 4296626666
for the trace file.
Note: Only the infrastructure should go into the kernel. It is to help
facilitate debugging for other kernel developers. Calls to ftrace_printk
is not intended to be left in the kernel, and should be frowned upon just
like scattering printks around in the code.
But having this easily at your fingertips helps the debugging go faster
and bugs be solved quicker.
Maybe later on, we can hook this with markers and have their printf format
be sucked into ftrace output.

Some tracers will need to work with more than one entry. In order to do this
the trace_entry structure was split into two fields. One for the start of
all entries, and one to continue an existing entry.
The trace_entry structure now has a "field" entry that consists of the previous
content of the trace_entry, and a "cont" entry that is just a string buffer
the size of the "field" entry.
Thanks to Andrew Morton for suggesting this idea.

When a mcount pointer is recorded into a table, it is used to add or
remove calls to mcount (replacing them with nops). If the code is removed
via removing a module, the pointers still exist. At modifying the code
a check is always made to make sure the code being replaced is the code
expected. In-other-words, the code being replaced is compared to what
it is expected to be before being replaced.
There is a very small chance that the code being replaced just happens
to look like code that calls mcount (very small since the call to mcount
is relative). To remove this chance, this patch adds ftrace_release to
allow module unloading to remove the pointers to mcount within the module.
Another change for init calls is made to not trace calls marked with
__init. The tracing can not be started until after init is done anyway.

This patch enables the loading of the __mcount_section of modules and
changing all the callers of mcount into nops.
The modification is done before the init_module function is called, so
again, we do not need to use kstop_machine to make these changes.

This is the infrastructure to the converting the mcount call sites
recorded by the __mcount_loc section into nops on boot. It also allows
for using these sites to enable tracing as normal. When the __mcount_loc
section is used, the "ftraced" kernel thread is disabled.
This uses the current infrastructure to record the mcount call sites
as well as convert them to nops. The mcount function is kept as a stub
on boot up and not converted to the ftrace_record_ip function. We use the
ftrace_record_ip to only record from the table.
This patch does not handle modules. That comes with a later patch.

This patch creates a section in the kernel called "__mcount_loc".
This will hold a list of pointers to the mcount relocation for
each call site of mcount.
For example:
objdump -dr init/main.o
[...]
Disassembly of section .text:
0000000000000000 <do_one_initcall>:
0: 55 push %rbp
[...]
000000000000017b <init_post>:
17b: 55 push %rbp
17c: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
17f: 53 push %rbx
180: 48 83 ec 08 sub $0x8,%rsp
184: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 189 <init_post+0xe>
185: R_X86_64_PC32 mcount+0xfffffffffffffffc
[...]
We will add a section to point to each function call.
.section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
[...]
.quad .text + 0x185
[...]
The offset to of the mcount call site in init_post is an offset from
the start of the section, and not the start of the function init_post.
The mcount relocation is at the call site 0x185 from the start of the
.text section.
.text + 0x185 == init_post + 0xa
We need a way to add this __mcount_loc section in a way that we do not
lose the relocations after final link. The .text section here will
be attached to all other .text sections after final link and the
offsets will be meaningless. We need to keep track of where these
.text sections are.
To do this, we use the start of the first function in the section.
do_one_initcall. We can make a tmp.s file with this function as a reference
to the start of the .text section.
.section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
[...]
.quad do_one_initcall + 0x185
[...]
Then we can compile the tmp.s into a tmp.o
gcc -c tmp.s -o tmp.o
And link it into back into main.o.
ld -r main.o tmp.o -o tmp_main.o
mv tmp_main.o main.o
But we have a problem. What happens if the first function in a section
is not exported, and is a static function. The linker will not let
the tmp.o use it. This case exists in main.o as well.
Disassembly of section .init.text:
0000000000000000 <set_reset_devices>:
0: 55 push %rbp
1: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
4: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 9 <set_reset_devices+0x9>
5: R_X86_64_PC32 mcount+0xfffffffffffffffc
The first function in .init.text is a static function.
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices
The lowercase 't' means that set_reset_devices is local and is not exported.
If we simply try to link the tmp.o with the set_reset_devices we end
up with two symbols: one local and one global.
.section __mcount_loc,"a",@progbits
.quad set_reset_devices + 0x10
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices
U set_reset_devices
We still have an undefined reference to set_reset_devices, and if we try
to compile the kernel, we will end up with an undefined reference to
set_reset_devices, or even worst, it could be exported someplace else,
and then we will have a reference to the wrong location.
To handle this case, we make an intermediate step using objcopy.
We convert set_reset_devices into a global exported symbol before linking
it with tmp.o and set it back afterwards.
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 T set_reset_devices
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 T set_reset_devices
00000000000000a8 t __setup_set_reset_devices
000000000000105f t __setup_str_set_reset_devices
0000000000000000 t set_reset_devices
Now we have a section in main.o called __mcount_loc that we can place
somewhere in the kernel using vmlinux.ld.S and access it to convert
all these locations that call mcount into nops before starting SMP
and thus, eliminating the need to do this with kstop_machine.
Note, A well documented perl script (scripts/recordmcount.pl) is used
to do all this in one location.

Impact: per CPU hrtimers can be migrated from a dead CPU
The hrtimer code has no knowledge about per CPU timers, but we need to
prevent the migration of such timers and warn when such a timer is
active at migration time.
Explicitely mark the timers as per CPU and use a more understandable
mode descriptor for the interrupts safe unlocked callback mode, which
is used by hrtimer_sleeper and the scheduler code.

* This patch replaces the dangerous lvalue version of cpumask_of_cpu
with new cpumask_of_cpu_ptr macros. These are patterned after the
node_to_cpumask_ptr macros.
In general terms, if there is a cpumask_of_cpu_map[] then a pointer to
the cpumask_of_cpu_map[cpu] entry is used. The cpumask_of_cpu_map
is provided when there is a large NR_CPUS count, reducing
greatly the amount of code generated and stack space used for
cpumask_of_cpu(). The pointer to the cpumask_t value is needed for
calling set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to reduce the amount of stack space
needed to pass the cpumask_t value.
If there isn't a cpumask_of_cpu_map[], then a temporary variable is
declared and filled in with value from cpumask_of_cpu(cpu) as well as
a pointer variable pointing to this temporary variable. Afterwards,
the pointer is used to reference the cpumask value. The compiler
will optimize out the extra dereference through the pointer as well
as the stack space used for the pointer, resulting in identical code.
A good example of the orthogonal usages is in net/sunrpc/svc.c:
case SVC_POOL_PERCPU:
{
unsigned int cpu = m->pool_to[pidx];
cpumask_of_cpu_ptr(cpumask, cpu);
*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, cpumask);
return 1;
}
case SVC_POOL_PERNODE:
{
unsigned int node = m->pool_to[pidx];
node_to_cpumask_ptr(nodecpumask, node);
*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, nodecpumask);
return 1;
}

Things get weird between lockdep and ftrace because ftrace can be called
within lockdep internal code (via the mcount pointer) and lockdep can be
called with ftrace (via spin_locks).

Currently the function tracer uses the global tracer_enabled variable that
is used to keep track if the tracer is enabled or not. The function tracing
startup needs to be separated out, otherwise the internal happenings of
the tracer startup is also recorded.
This patch creates a ftrace_function_enabled variable to all the starting
of the function traces to happen after everything has been started.

It has been suggested that I add a way to disable the function tracer
on an oops. This code adds a ftrace_kill_atomic. It is not meant to be
used in normal situations. It will disable the ftrace tracer, but will
not perform the nice shutdown that requires scheduling.

This is more of a clean up. Currently the function tracer initializes the
tracer with which ever CPU was last used for tracing. This value isn't
realy useful for function tracing, but at least it should be something other
than a random number.

Enabling the wakeup tracer before enabling the function tracing causes
some strange results due to the dynamic enabling of the functions.

We have two markers now that are enabled on sched_switch. One that records
the context switching and the other that records task wake ups. Currently
we enable the tracing first and then set the markers. This causes some
confusing traces:
# tracer: sched_switch
#
# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | | |
trace-cmd-3973 [00] 115.834817: 3973:120:R + 3: 0:S
trace-cmd-3973 [01] 115.834910: 3973:120:R + 6: 0:S
trace-cmd-3973 [02] 115.834910: 3973:120:R + 9: 0:S
trace-cmd-3973 [03] 115.834910: 3973:120:R + 12: 0:S
trace-cmd-3973 [02] 115.834910: 3973:120:R + 9: 0:S
<idle>-0 [02] 115.834910: 0:140:R ==> 3973:120:R
Here we see that trace-cmd with PID 3973 wakes up task 9 but the next line
shows the idle task doing a context switch to task 3973.
Enabling the tracing to _after_ the markers are set creates a much saner
output:
# tracer: sched_switch
#
# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | | |
<idle>-0 [02] 7922.634225: 0:140:R ==> 4790:120:R

Avoid modifying the mcount call-site if there is a kprobe installed on it.
These records are not marked as failed however. This allowed the filter
rules on them to remain up-to-date. Whenever the kprobe on the corresponding
record is removed, the record gets updated as normal.

Let records identified as being kprobe'd be marked as "frozen". The trouble
with records which have a kprobe installed on their mcount call-site is
that they don't get updated. So if such a function which is currently being
traced gets its tracing disabled due to a new filter rule (or because it
was added to the notrace list) then it won't be updated and continue being
traced. This patch allows scanning of all frozen records during tracing to
check if they should be traced.

Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64
record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some
general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables
looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.

This is a fix to give notrace filter rules priority over "set_ftrace_filter"
rules.
This fix ensures that functions which are set to be filtered and are
concurrently marked as "notrace" don't get recorded. As of now, if
a record is marked as FTRACE_FL_FILTER and is enabled, then the notrace
flag is not checked. Tested on x86-32.

Found that inspite of setting the current_tracer to "none", trace from
the previous trace type continued to be collected. The patch below fixes
this and causes the trace to be disabled when the "none" type is
selected.
Compile and boot tested the patch for functionality.

The intent was always to filter core kernel functions to prevent their freeing.
Here's a fix which should allow re-recording of module call-sites.

Identify functions which had their mcount call-site updates failed. This can
help us track functions which ftrace shouldn't fiddle with, and are thus not
being traced. If there is no race with any external agent which is modifying
the mcount call-site, then this file displays no entries (normal case).

Prevent freeing of records which cause problems and correspond to function from
core kernel text. A new flag, FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED is used to mark a record
as "converted". All other records are patched lazily to NOPs. Failed records
now also remain on frace_hash table. Each invocation of ftrace_record_ip now
checks whether the traced function has ever been recorded (including past
failures) and doesn't re-record it again.
