This must be brown paper bag week for Steven Rostedt!
While working on ftrace for PPC, I discovered that the hash locking done
when CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD is not set, is totally incorrect.
With a cut and paste error, I had the hash lock macro to lock for both
hash_lock _and_ hash_unlock!
This bug did not affect x86 since this bug was introduced when
CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD was added to x86.

make most of the tracers depend on DEBUG_KERNEL - that's their intended
purpose. (most distributions have DEBUG_KERNEL enabled anyway so this is
not a practical limitation - but it simplifies the tracing menu in the
normal case)

An item in the trace buffer that is bigger than one entry may be split
up using the TRACE_CONT entry. This makes it a virtual single entry.
The current code increments the iterator index even while traversing
TRACE_CONT entries, making it look like the iterator is further than
it actually is.
This patch adds code to not increment the iterator index while skipping
over TRACE_CONT entries.

Peter Zijlstra provided me with a nice brown paper bag while letting me know
that I was doing a logical AND and not a binary one, making a condition
true more often than it should be.
Luckily, a false true is handled by the calling function and no harm is
done. But this needs to be fixed regardless.

Currently some of the ftrace output goes skewiff if you have more
than 9 cpus, and some if you have more than 99.
Twiddle with the headers and format strings to make up to 999 cpus

This patch adds indexes into the stack that the functions in the

The mcount record method of ftrace scans objdump for references to mcount.
Using mcount as the reference to test if the calls to mcount being replaced
are indeed calls to mcount, this use of mcount was also caught as a
location to change. Using a variable that points to the mcount address
moves this reference into the data section that is not scanned, and
we do not use a false location to try and modify.
The warn on code was what was used to detect this bug.

This is another tracer using the ftrace infrastructure, that examines
at each function call the size of the stack. If the stack use is greater
than the previous max it is recorded.
You can always see (and set) the max stack size seen. By setting it
to zero will start the recording again. The backtrace is also available.

The new design of pre-recorded mcounts and updating the code outside of
kstop_machine has changed the way the records themselves are protected.
This patch uses the ftrace_lock to protect the records. Note, the lock
still does not need to be taken within calls that are only called via
kstop_machine, since the that code can not run while the spin lock is held.
Also removed the hash_lock needed for the daemon when MCOUNT_RECORD is
configured. Also did a slight cleanup of an unused variable.

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.

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 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.

* 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;
}

When PREEMPT_TRACER and IRQSOFF_TRACER are both configured and irqsoff
tracer is running, the preempt_off sections might also be traced.
Thanks to Andrew Morton for pointing out my mistake of spin_lock disabling
interrupts while he was reviewing ftrace.txt. Seems that my example I used
actually hit this bug.

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.

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
# | | | | |
