Add the values of rcu_scheduler_active() and debug_locks() to the lockdep_rcu_dereference() output to help diagnose RCU lockdep splats that occur shortly after the scheduler starts.

2009-11-13tracing: Rename 'lockdep' event subsystem into 'lock'Frederic Weisbecker
Lockdep events subsystem gathers various locking related events such as a request, release, contention or acquisition of a lock. The name of this event subsystem is a bit of a misnomer since these events are not quite related to lockdep but more generally to locking, ie: these events are not reporting lock dependencies or possible deadlock scenario but pure locking events.

2009-08-02lockdep: Reintroduce generation count to make BFS fasterMing Lei
We still can apply DaveM's generation count optimization to BFS, based on the following idea: - before doing each BFS, increase the global generation id by 1 - if one node in the graph has been visited, mark it as visited by storing the current global generation id into the node's dep_gen_id field - so we can decide if one node has been visited already, by comparing the node's dep_gen_id with the global generation id. By applying DaveM's generation count optimization to current implementation of BFS, we gain the following advantages: - we save MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES/8 bytes memory; - we remove the bitmap_zero(bfs_accessed, MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES); in each BFS, which is very time-consuming since MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES may be very large.(16384UL) Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: "David S.

2009-08-02lockdep: Deal with many similar locksPeter Zijlstra
spin_lock_nest_lock() allows to take many instances of the same class, this can easily lead to overflow of MAX_LOCK_DEPTH. To avoid this overflow, we'll stop accounting instances but start reference counting the class in the held_lock structure. [ We could maintain a list of instances, if we'd move the hlock stuff into __lock_acquired(), but that would require significant modifications to the current code. ] We restrict this mode to spin_lock_nest_lock() only, because it degrades the lockdep quality due to lost of instance. For lockstat this means we don't track lock statistics for any but the first lock in the series. Currently nesting is limited to 11 bits because that was the spare space available in held_lock. This yields a 2048 instances maximium.

Currently lockdep will print the 1st circle detected if it exists when acquiring a new (next) lock.

The patch still uses the current method to check circle, and once the circle is found, breadth-first search algorithem is used to compute the shortest path from the next lock to the previous lock in the forward lock dependency graph. Printing the shortest path will shorten the dependency chain, and make troubleshooting for possible circular locking easier.

2009-04-14tracing: create automated trace definesSteven Rostedt
This patch lowers the number of places a developer must modify to add new tracepoints. The current method to add a new tracepoint into an existing system is to write the trace point macro in the trace header with one of the macros TRACE_EVENT, TRACE_FORMAT or DECLARE_TRACE, then they must add the same named item into the C file with the macro DEFINE_TRACE(name) and then add the trace point. This change cuts out the needing to add the DEFINE_TRACE(name). Every file that uses the tracepoint must still include the trace/<type>.h file, but the one C file must also add a define before the including of that file. #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS #include <trace/mytrace.h> This will cause the trace/mytrace.h file to also produce the C code necessary to implement the trace point. Note, if more than one trace/<type>.h is used to create the C code it is best to list them all together. #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS #include <trace/foo.h> #include <trace/bar.h> #include <trace/fido.h> Thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers and Christoph Hellwig for coming up with the cleaner solution of the define above the includes over my first design to have the C code include a "special" header. This patch converts sched, irq and lockdep and skb to use this new method.

2009-04-10tracing/lockdep: report the time waited for a lockFrederic Weisbecker
While trying to optimize the new lock on reiserfs to replace the bkl, I find the lock tracing very useful though it lacks something important for performance (and latency) instrumentation: the time a task waits for a lock. That's what this patch implements: bash-4816 [000] 202.652815: lock_contended: lock_contended: &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key bash-4816 [000] 202.652819: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us) <...>-4787 [000] 202.652825: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us) <...>-4787 [000] 202.652829: lock_acquired: &rq->lock (0.000 us) bash-4816 [000] 202.652833: lock_acquired: &sb->s_type->i_mutex_key (16.005 us) As shown above, the "lock acquired" field is followed by the time it has been waiting for the lock. Usually, a lock contended entry is followed by a near lock_acquired entry with a non-zero time waited.

2009-03-04lockdep: remove extra "irq" stringPeter Zijlstra
Impact: clarify lockdep printk text print_irq_inversion_bug() gets handed state strings of the form "HARDIRQ", "SOFTIRQ", "RECLAIM_FS" and appends "-irq-{un,}safe" to them, which is either redudant for *IRQ or confusing in the RECLAIM_FS case.

In the recent mark_lock_irq() rework a bug snuck in that would report the state of write locks causing irq inversion under a read lock as a read lock.
