2009-09-04ring-buffer: remove ring_buffer_event_discardSteven Rostedt
The function ring_buffer_event_discard can be used on any item in the ring buffer, even after the item was committed. This function provides no safety nets and is very race prone. An item may be safely removed from the ring buffer before it is committed with the ring_buffer_discard_commit. Since there are currently no users of this function, and because this function is racey and error prone, this patch removes it altogether. Note, removing this function also allows the counters to ignore all discarded events (patches will follow). Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-09-04ring-buffer: fix ring_buffer_read crossing pagesSteven Rostedt
When the ring buffer uses an iterator (static read mode, not on the fly reading), when it crosses a page boundery, it will skip the first entry on the next page. The reason is that the last entry of a page is usually padding if the page is not full. The padding will not be returned to the user. The problem arises on ring_buffer_read because it also increments the iterator. Because both the read and peek use the same rb_iter_peek, the rb_iter_peak will return the padding but also increment to the next item. This is because the ring_buffer_peek will not incerment it itself. The ring_buffer_read will increment it again and then call rb_iter_peek again to get the next item. But that will be the second item, not the first one on the page. The reason this never showed up before, is because the ftrace utility always calls ring_buffer_peek first and only uses ring_buffer_read to increment to the next item. The ring_buffer_peek will always keep the pointer to a valid item and not padding. This just hid the bug. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-09-04ring-buffer: remove unnecessary cpu_relaxSteven Rostedt
The loops in the ring buffer that use cpu_relax are not dependent on other CPUs. They simply came across some padding in the ring buffer and are skipping over them. It is a normal loop and does not require a cpu_relax. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2009-08-31tracing/filters: Defer pred allocationLi Zefan
init_preds() allocates about 5392 bytes of memory (on x86_32) for a TRACE_EVENT. With my config, at system boot total memory occupied is: 5392 * (642 + 15) == 3459KB 642 == cat available_events | wc -l 15 == number of dirs in events/ftrace That's quite a lot, so we'd better defer memory allocation util it's needed, that's when filter is used.

2009-08-26tracing: Don't trace kernel thread syscallsHendrik Brueckner
Kernel threads don't call syscalls using the sysenter/sysexit path. Instead they directly call the sys_* or do_* functions that implement the syscalls inside the kernel. The current syscall tracepoints only bind the sysenter/sysexit path, then it has no effect to trace the kernel thread calls to syscalls in that path. Setting the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT flag is then useless for these. Actually there is only one case when a kernel thread can reach the usual syscall exit tracing path: when we create a kernel thread, the child comes to ret_from_fork and is the fork() return is then traced. But this information alone is useless, then we don't want to set the TIF flags for these threads. Kernel threads have task_struct->mm set to NULL. (Thanks to Heiko for that hint ;-) The idea is then to check the mm field in syscall_regfunc() and set the flag accordingly.

2009-08-26tracing: Check invalid syscall nr while tracing syscallsHendrik Brueckner
Most arch syscall_get_nr() implementations returns -1 if the syscall number is not valid. Accessing the bit field without a check might result in a kernel oops (at least I saw it on s390 for ftrace selftest). Before this change, this problem did not occur, because the invalid syscall number (-1) caused syscall_nr_to_meta() to return NULL. There are at least two scenarios where syscall_get_nr() can return -1: 1. For example, ptrace stores an invalid syscall number, and thus, tracing code resets it. (see do_syscall_trace_enter in arch/s390/kernel/ptrace.c) 2. The syscall_regfunc() (kernel/tracepoint.c) sets the TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE (now: TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT) flag for all threads which include kernel threads. However, the ftrace selftest triggers a kernel oops when testing syscall trace points: - The kernel thread is started as ususal (do_fork()), - tracing code sets TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE, - the ret_from_fork() function is triggered and starts ftrace_syscall_exit() with an invalid syscall number. To avoid these scenarios, I suggest to check the syscall_nr. For instance, the ftrace selftest fails for s390 (with config option CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS set) and produces the following kernel oops.

2009-08-26tracing/filters: Support filtering for char * stringsLi Zefan
Usually, char * entries are dangerous in traces because the string can be released whereas a pointer to it can still wait to be read from the ring buffer. But sometimes we can assume it's safe, like in case of RO data (eg: __file__ or __line__, used in bkl trace event). If these RO data are in a module and so is the call to the trace event, then it's safe, because the ring buffer will be flushed once this module get unloaded. To allow char * to be treated as a string: TRACE_EVENT(..., TP_STRUCT__entry( __field_ext(const char *, name, FILTER_PTR_STRING) ... ) ... ); The filtering will not dereference "char *" unless the developer explicitly sets FILTER_PTR_STR in __field_ext.

This converts the syscall_enter/exit tracepoints into TRACE_EVENTs, so you can have generic ftrace events that capture all system calls with arguments and return values.

2009-08-26tracing: Move tracepoint callbacks from declaration to definitionJosh Stone
It's not strictly correct for the tracepoint reg/unreg callbacks to occur when a client is hooking up, because the actual tracepoint may not be present yet. This happens to be fine for syscall, since that's in the core kernel, but it would cause problems for tracepoints defined in a module that hasn't been loaded yet. It also means the reg/unreg has to be EXPORTed for any modules to use the tracepoint (as in SystemTap). This patch removes DECLARE_TRACE_WITH_CALLBACK, and instead introduces DEFINE_TRACE_FN which stores the callbacks in struct tracepoint. The callbacks are used now when the active state of the tracepoint changes in set_tracepoint & disable_tracepoint. This also introduces TRACE_EVENT_FN, so ftrace events can also provide registration callbacks if needed.

2009-08-17trace_stat: Fix missing entry in stat fileLi Zefan
One entry is missing in the output of a stat file. The cause is, when stat_seq_start() is called the 2nd time, we should start from the (pos-1)th elem in the rbtree but not pos, because pos == 0 is the header.

2009-08-17tracing/syscalls: Fix to print parameter typesLi Zefan
When syscall tracing was implemented as a tracer, "syscall_arg_type" trace option could be set to enable the display of syscall parameter types. Now this option is gone since it's no longer a tracer, but the code is still there but dead. So we remove dead code and re-enable the printing of paramete types via the verbose option: # echo verbose > trace_options # echo syscalls > set_event # cat trace ... bash-3331 [000] 95.348937: sys_fcntl64 -> 0x1 bash-3331 [000] 95.348942: sys_close(unsigned int fd: a) ...
