dyndbg: refine verbosity 1-4 summary-detail
adjust current v*pr_info() calls to fit an overview..detail scheme: 1- module level activity: add/remove, etc 2- command ingest, splitting, summary of effects. per >control write 3- command parsing: op, flags, search terms 4- per-site change msg can yield ~3k x 2 logs per echo "+p;-p" > command. Summarize these 4 levels in MODULE_PARM_DESC, and update verbose=3 in Doc. 2- is new, to isolate a problem where a stress-test script (which feeds ~4kb multi-command strings) would produce short writes, truncating last command and causing parsing errors, which confused test results. The script fix was to use syswrite, to deliver full proper commands. 4- gets per-callsite "changed:" pr-infos, which are very noisy during stress tests, and formerly obscured v1-3 messages, and overwhelmed the static-key workload being tested. The verbose parameter has previously seen adjustment: commit 481c0e33f1e7 ("dyndbg: refine debug verbosity; 1 is basic, 2 more chatty") The script driving these adjustments is: !/usr/bin/perl -w =for Doc 1st purpose was to benchmark the effect of wildcard queries on query performance; if wildcards are risk free cheap enough, we can deploy them in the (floating) format search. 1st finding: wildcards take 2x as long to process. 2nd purpose was to benchmark real static-key changes VS simple flag changes. Found ~100x decrease for the hard work. The script maximizes workload per >control by packing it a ~4kb string of "+p; -p;" commands; this uncovered some broken stuff. The 85th query failed, and appears to be truncated, so is gramatically incorrect. Its either an error here, or in the kernel. Its not happening atm, retest. Plot thickens: fail only happens doing +-p, not +-mf, likely load dependent. Error remains consistent. Looks like a short write, longer on writer than kernel-reader. Try syswrite on handle to control this. That fixed short write. =cut use Getopt::Std; getopts('vN:k:', \my %opts) or die <<EOH; $0 options: -v verbose -k=n kernel dyndbg verbosity -N=n number of loops.. tbrc EOH $opts{N} //= 10; # !undef, 0 tests too long. my $ctrl = '/proc/dynamic_debug/control'; vx($opts{k}) if defined $opts{k}; # works on -k0 open(my $CTL, '>', $ctrl) or die "cant open $ctrl for writing: $!\n"; sub vx { my $arg = shift; my $cmd = "echo $arg > /sys/module/dynamic_debug/parameters/verbose"; system($cmd); warn("vx problem: rc:$? err:$! qry: $cmd\n") if ($?); } sub qryOK { my $qry = shift; print "syntax test: <\n$qry>\n" if $opts{v}; my $bytes = syswrite $CTL, $qry; printf "short read: $bytes / %d\n", length $qry if $bytes < length $qry; if ($?) { warn "rc:$? err:$! qry: $qry\n"; return 0; } return 1; } sub build_queries { my ($cmd, $flags, $ct) = @_; # build experiment and reference queries my $cycle = " $cmd +$flags # on ; $cmd -$flags # off \n"; my $ref = " +$flags ; -$flags \n"; my $len = length $cycle; my $max = int(4096 / $len); # break/fit to buffer size $ct |= $max; print "qry: ct:$max x << \n$cycle >>\n"; return unless qryOK($ref); return unless qryOK($cycle); my $wild = $cycle x $ct; my $empty = $ref x $ct; printf "len: %d, %d\n", length $wild, length $empty; return { trial => $wild, ref => $empty, probe => $cycle, zero => $ref, count => $ct, max => $max }; } my $query_set = build_queries(' file "*" module "*" func "*" ', "mf"); qryOK($query_set->{zero}); qryOK($query_set->{probe}); qryOK($query_set->{ref}); qryOK($query_set->{trial}); use Benchmark; sub dobatch { my ($cmd, $flags, $reps, $ct) = @_; $reps ||= $opts{N}; my $qs = build_queries($cmd, $flags, $ct); timethese($reps, { wildcards => sub { syswrite $CTL, $qs->{trial}; }, no_search => sub { syswrite $CTL, $qs->{ref}; } } ); } sub bench_static_key_toggle { vx 0; dobatch(' file "*" module "*" func "*" ', "mf"); dobatch(' file "*" module "*" func "*" ', "p"); } sub bench_verbose_levels { for my $i (0..4) { vx $i; dobatch(' file "*" module "*" func "*" ', "mf"); } } bench_static_key_toggle(); __END__ Heres how the test-script runs: :: verbose=3 parsing info [ 48.401646] dyndbg: query 95: "file "*" module "*" func "*" -mf # off " mod:* [ 48.402040] dyndbg: split into words: "file" "*" "module" "*" "func" "*" "-mf" [ 48.402456] dyndbg: op='-' [ 48.402615] dyndbg: flags=0x6 [ 48.402779] dyndbg: *flagsp=0x0 *maskp=0xfffffff9 [ 48.403033] dyndbg: parsed: func="*" file="*" module="*" format="" lineno=0-0 [ 48.403674] dyndbg: applied: func="*" file="*" module="*" format="" lineno=0-0 :: verbose=2 >control summary. ~300k site matches/changes per 4kb command [ 48.404063] dyndbg: processed 96 queries, with 296160 matches, 0 errs :: 2 queries against each other, no-search vs all-wildcard-search qry: ct:48 x << file "*" module "*" func "*" +mf # on ; file "*" module "*" func "*" -mf # off >> len: 4080, 576 Benchmark: timing 10 iterations of no_search, wildcards... no_search: 0 wallclock secs ( 0.00 usr + 0.03 sys = 0.03 CPU) @ 333.33/s (n=10) (warning: too few iterations for a reliable count) wildcards: 0 wallclock secs ( 0.00 usr + 0.09 sys = 0.09 CPU) @ 111.11/s (n=10) (warning: too few iterations for a reliable count) :: 2 queries, both doing real work / changing stati-key states. qry: ct:49 x << file "*" module "*" func "*" +p # on ; file "*" module "*" func "*" -p # off >> len: 4067, 490 Benchmark: timing 10 iterations of no_search, wildcards... no_search: 20 wallclock secs ( 0.00 usr + 20.36 sys = 20.36 CPU) @ 0.49/s (n=10) wildcards: 21 wallclock secs ( 0.00 usr + 21.08 sys = 21.08 CPU) @ 0.47/s (n=10) bash-5.1# Thats 150k static-key-toggles / sec ~600x slower than simple flags on qemu --smp 3 run Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211019210746.185307-1-jim.cromie@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
