2023-06-13rtla: Automatically move rtla to a house-keeping cpuDaniel Bristot de Oliveira
When the user sets -c <cpu-list> try to move rtla out of the <cpu-list>, even without an -H option. This is useful to avoid having rtla interfering with the workload. This works by removing <cpu-list> from rtla's current affinity. If rtla fails to move itself away it is not that of a problem as this is an automatic measure.

To avoid having rtla interfering with the measurement threads, add an option for the user to set the CPUs in which rtla should run. For instance: # rtla timerlat top -H 0 -c 1-7 Will place rtla in the CPU 0, while running the measurement threads in the CPU 1-7.

2023-04-25rtla/timerlat: Add auto-analysis only optionDaniel Bristot de Oliveira
Parsing and formating timerlat data might consume a reasonable amount of CPU time on very large systems, or when timerlat has a too short period. Add an option to run timerlat with auto-analysis enabled while skipping the statistics parsing. In this mode, rtla timerlat periodically checks if the tracing is on, going to sleep waiting for the stop tracing condition to stop tracing, or for the tracing session to finish. If the stop tracing condition is hit, the tool prints the auto analysis. Otherwise, the tool prints the max observed latency and exit. The max observed latency is captured via tracing_max_latency.

2023-02-18tracing: Always use canonical ftrace pathRoss Zwisler
The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing. But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst: Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system, the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing Many comments and Kconfig help messages in the tracing code still refer to this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

2023-02-13rtla: Add hwnoise toolDaniel Bristot de Oliveira
The hwnoise tool is a special mode for the osnoise top tool. hwnoise dispatches the osnoise tracer and displays a summary of the noise. The difference is that it runs the tracer with the OSNOISE_IRQ_DISABLE option set, thus only allowing only hardware-related noise, resulting in a simplified output. hwnoise has the same features of osnoise. An example of the tool's output: # rtla hwnoise -c 1-11 -T 1 -d 10m -q Hardware-related Noise duration: 0 00:10:00 | time is in us CPU Period Runtime Noise % CPU Aval Max Noise Max Single HW NMI 1 #599 599000000 138 99.99997 3 3 4 74 2 #599 599000000 85 99.99998 3 3 4 75 3 #599 599000000 86 99.99998 4 3 6 75 4 #599 599000000 81 99.99998 4 4 2 75 5 #599 599000000 85 99.99998 2 2 2 75 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/2d6f49a6f3a4f8b51b2c806458b1cff71ad4d014.1675805361.git.bristot@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@kernel.org> Cc: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@kernel.org> Cc: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@redhat.com> Cc: Clark Williams <williams@redhat.com> Cc: Bagas Sanjaya <bagasdotme@gmail.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2023-02-02rtla/timerlat: Add auto-analysis support to timerlat topDaniel Bristot de Oliveira
Currently, timerlat top displays the timerlat tracer latency results, saving the intuitive timerlat trace for the developer to analyze. This patch goes a step forward in the automaton of the scheduling latency analysis by providing a summary of the root cause of a latency higher than the passed "stop tracing" parameter if the trace stops. The output is intuitive enough for non-expert users to have a general idea of the root cause by looking at each factor's contribution percentage while keeping the technical detail in the output for more expert users to start an in dept debug or to correlate a root cause with an existing one. The terminology is in line with recent industry and academic publications to facilitate the understanding of both audiences. Here is one example of tool output: ----------------------------------------- %< ----------------------------------------------------- # taskset -c 0 timerlat -a 40 -c 1-23 -q Timer Latency 0 00:00:12 | IRQ Timer Latency (us) | Thread Timer Latency (us) CPU COUNT | cur min avg max | cur min avg max 1 #12322 | 0 0 1 15 | 10 3 9 31 2 #12322 | 3 0 1 12 | 10 3 9 23 3 #12322 | 1 0 1 21 | 8 2 8 34 4 #12322 | 1 0 1 17 | 10 2 11 33 5 #12322 | 0 0 1 12 | 8 3 8 25 6 #12322 | 1 0 1 14 | 16 3 11 35 7 #12322 | 0 0 1 14 | 9 2 8 29 8 #12322 | 1 0 1 22 | 9 3 9 34 9 #12322 | 0 0 1 14 | 8 2 8 24 10 #12322 | 1 0 0 12 | 9 3 8 24 11 #12322 | 0 0 0 15 | 6 2 7 29 12 #12321 | 1 0 0 13 | 5 3 8 23 13 #12319 | 0 0 1 14 | 9 3 9 26 14 #12321 | 1 0 0 13 | 6 2 8 24 15 #12321 | 1 0 1 15 | 12 3 11 27 16 #12318 | 0 0 1 13 | 7 3 10 24 17 #12319 | 0 0 1 13 | 11 3 9 25 18 #12318 | 0 0 0 12 | 8 2 8 20 19 #12319 | 0 0 1 18 | 10 2 9 28 20 #12317 | 0 0 0 20 | 9 3 8 34 21 #12318 | 0 0 0 13 | 8 3 8 28 22 #12319 | 0 0 1 11 | 8 3 10 22 23 #12320 | 28 0 1 28 | 41 3 11 41 rtla timerlat hit stop tracing ## CPU 23 hit stop tracing, analyzing it ## IRQ handler delay: 27.49 us (65.52 %) IRQ latency: 28.13 us Timerlat IRQ duration: 9.59 us (22.85 %) Blocking thread: 3.79 us (9.03 %) objtool:49256 3.79 us Blocking thread stacktrace -> timerlat_irq -> __hrtimer_run_queues -> hrtimer_interrupt -> __sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore -> cgroup_rstat_flush_locked -> cgroup_rstat_flush_irqsafe -> mem_cgroup_flush_stats -> mem_cgroup_wb_stats -> balance_dirty_pages -> balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_flags -> btrfs_buffered_write -> btrfs_do_write_iter -> vfs_write -> __x64_sys_pwrite64 -> do_syscall_64 -> entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thread latency: 41.96 us (100%) The system has exit from idle latency! Max timerlat IRQ latency from idle: 17.48 us in cpu 4 Saving trace to timerlat_trace.txt ----------------------------------------- >% ----------------------------------------------------- In this case, the major factor was the delay suffered by the IRQ handler that handles timerlat wakeup: 65.52 %. This can be caused by the current thread masking interrupts, which can be seen in the blocking thread stacktrace: the current thread (objtool:49256) disabled interrupts via raw spin lock operations inside mem cgroup, while doing write syscall in a btrfs file system. A simple search for the function name on Google shows that this is a legit case for disabling the interrupts: cgroup: Use irqsave in cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20220301122143.1521823-2-bigeasy@linutronix.de/ The output also prints other reasons for the latency root cause, such as: - an IRQ that happened before the IRQ handler that caused delays - The interference from NMI, IRQ, Softirq, and Threads The details about how these factors affect the scheduling latency can be found here: https://bristot.me/demystifying-the-real-time-linux-latency/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/3d45f40e630317f51ac6d678e2d96d310e495729.1675179318.git.bristot@kernel.org Cc: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@kernel.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Signed-off-by: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2022-05-26rtla: Remove procps-ng dependencyDaniel Bristot de Oliveira
Daniel Wagner reported to me that readproc.h got deprecated. Also, while the procps-ng library was available on Fedora, it was not available on RHEL, which is a piece of evidence that it was not that used. rtla uses procps-ng only to find the PID of the tracers' workload. I used the procps-ng library to avoid reinventing the wheel. But in this case, reinventing the wheel took me less time than the time we already took trying to work around problems. Implement a function that reads /proc/ entries, checking if: - the entry is a directory - the directory name is composed only of digits (PID) - the directory contains the comm file - the comm file contains a comm that matches the tracers' workload prefix. - then return true; otherwise, return false. And use it instead of procps-ng.

2022-05-26rtla/Makefile: Properly handle dependenciesDaniel Bristot de Oliveira
Linus had a problem compiling RTLA, saying: "[...] I wish the tracing tools would do a bit more package checking and helpful error messages too, rather than just fail with: fatal error: tracefs.h: No such file or directory" Which is indeed not a helpful message. Update the Makefile, adding proper checks for the dependencies, with useful information about how to resolve possible problems. For example, the previous error is now reported as: $ make ******************************************** ** NOTICE: libtracefs version 1.3 or higher not found ** ** Consider installing the latest libtracefs from your ** distribution, e.g., 'dnf install libtracefs' on Fedora, ** or from source: ** ** https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git/ ** ******************************************** These messages are inspired by the ones used on trace-cmd, as suggested by Stevel Rostedt.

Covert as follows: $(if A,A,B) --> $(or A,B) This patch also converts: $(if A, A, B) --> $(or A, B) Strictly speaking, the latter is not an equivalent conversion because GNU Make keeps spaces after commas; if A is not empty, $(if A, A, B) expands to " A", while $(or A, B) expands to "A".

For example: [root@f34 rtla]# rtla osnoise top -t failed to enable the tracer osnoise Could not enable osnoiser tracer for tracing Failed to enable the trace instance Segmentation fault (core dumped) This error happens because the exit code of the tools is trying to destroy the trace instance that failed to be created.
