2011-02-07tracing/filter: Remove synchronize_sched() from __alloc_preds()Steven Rostedt
Because the filters are processed first and then activated (added to the call), we no longer need to worry about the preds of the filter in __alloc_preds() being used. As the filter that is allocating preds is not activated yet. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-02-07tracing/filter: Swap entire filter of eventsSteven Rostedt
When creating a new filter, instead of allocating the filter to the event call first and then processing the filter, it is easier to process a temporary filter and then just swap it with the call filter. By doing this, it simplifies the code. A filter is allocated and processed, when it is done, it is swapped with the call filter, synchronize_sched() is called to make sure all callers are done with the old filter (filters are called with premption disabled), and then the old filter is freed.

2011-02-07tracing/filter: Increase the max preds to 2^14Steven Rostedt
Now that the filter logic does not require to save the pred results on the stack, we can increase the max number of preds we allow. As the preds are index by a short value, and we use the MSBs as flags we can increase the max preds to 2^14 (16384) which should be way more than enough.

2011-02-07tracing/filter: Optimize filter by folding the treeSteven Rostedt
There are many cases that a filter will contain multiple ORs or ANDs together near the leafs. Walking up and down the tree to get to the next compare can be a waste. If there are several ORs or ANDs together, fold them into a single pred and allocate an array of the conditions that they check. This will speed up the filter by linearly walking an array and can still break out if a short circuit condition is met.

2011-02-07tracing/filter: Check the created pred treeSteven Rostedt
Since the filter walks a tree to determine if a match is made or not, if the tree was incorrectly created, it could cause an infinite loop. Add a check to walk the entire tree before assigning it as a filter to make sure the tree is correct. Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-02-07tracing/filter: Optimize short ciruit checkSteven Rostedt
The test if we should break out early for OR and AND operations can be optimized by comparing the current result with (pred->op == OP_OR) That is if the result is true and the op is an OP_OR, or if the result is false and the op is not an OP_OR (thus an OP_AND) we can break out early in either case. Otherwise we continue processing. Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-02-07tracing/filter: Use a tree instead of stack for filter_match_preds()Steven Rostedt
Currently the filter_match_preds() requires a stack to push and pop the preds to determine if the filter matches the record or not. This has two drawbacks: 1) It requires a stack to store state information. As this is done in fast paths we can't allocate the storage for this stack, and we can't use a global as it must be re-entrant. The stack is stored on the kernel stack and this greatly limits how many preds we may allow. 2) All conditions are calculated even when a short circuit exists. a || b will always calculate a and b even though a was determined to be true. Using a tree we can walk a constant structure that will save the state as we go. The algorithm is simply: pred = root; do { switch (move) { case MOVE_DOWN: if (OR or AND) { pred = left; continue; } if (pred == root) break; match = pred->fn(); pred = pred->parent; move = left child ? MOVE_UP_FROM_LEFT : MOVE_UP_FROM_RIGHT; continue; case MOVE_UP_FROM_LEFT: /* Only OR or AND can be a parent */ if (match && OR || !match && AND) { /* short circuit */ if (pred == root) break; pred = pred->parent; move = left child ? MOVE_UP_FROM_LEFT : MOVE_UP_FROM_RIGHT; continue; } pred = pred->right; move = MOVE_DOWN; continue; case MOVE_UP_FROM_RIGHT: if (pred == root) break; pred = pred->parent; move = left child ? MOVE_UP_FROM_LEFT : MOVE_UP_FROM_RIGHT; continue; } done = 1; } while (!done); This way there's no strict limit to how many preds we allow and it also will short circuit the logical operations when possible.

2011-02-07tracing/filter: Allocate the preds in an arraySteven Rostedt
Currently we allocate an array of pointers to filter_preds, and then allocate a separate filter_pred for each item in the array. This adds slight overhead in the filters as it needs to derefernce twice to get to the op condition. Allocating the preds themselves in a single array removes a dereference as well as helps on the cache footprint.

2011-02-07tracing/filter: Call synchronize_sched() just once for system filtersSteven Rostedt
By separating out the reseting of the filter->n_preds to zero from the reallocation of preds for the filter, we can reset groups of filters first, call synchronize_sched() just once, and then reallocate each of the filters in the system group.

2011-02-07tracing/filter: Dynamically allocate predsSteven Rostedt
For every filter that is made, we create predicates to hold every operation within the filter. We have a max of 32 predicates that we can hold. Currently, we allocate all 32 even if we only need to use one. Part of the reason we do this is that the filter can be used at any moment by any event. Fortunately, the filter is only used with preemption disabled. By reseting the count of preds used "n_preds" to zero, then performing a synchronize_sched(), we can safely free and reallocate a new array of preds.

2011-02-07tracing/filter: Move OR and AND logic out of fn() methodSteven Rostedt
The ops OR and AND act different from the other ops, as they are the only ones to take other ops as their arguements. These ops als change the logic of the filter_match_preds. By removing the OR and AND fn's we can also remove the val1 and val2 that is passed to all other fn's and are unused.

2011-02-07tracing/filter: Have no filter return a matchSteven Rostedt
The n_preds field of a file can change at anytime, and even can become zero, just as the filter is about to be processed by an event. In the case that is zero on entering the filter, return 1, telling the caller the event matchs and should be trace. Also use a variable and assign it with ACCESS_ONCE() such that the count stays consistent within the function. Cc: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2011-02-04x86-32: Make sure the stack is set up before we use itH. Peter Anvin
Since checkin ebba638ae723d8a8fc2f7abce5ec18b688b791d7 we call verify_cpu even in 32-bit mode. Unfortunately, calling a function means using the stack, and the stack pointer was not initialized in the 32-bit setup code! This code initializes the stack pointer, and simplifies the interface slightly since it is easier to rely on just a pointer value rather than a descriptor; we need to have different values for the segment register anyway. This retains start_stack as a virtual address, even though a physical address would be more convenient for 32 bits; the 64-bit code wants the other way around...
