2009-12-09tracing: Fix function graph trace_pipe to properly display failed entriesJiri Olsa
There is a case where the graph tracer might get confused and omits displaying of a single record. This applies mostly with the trace_pipe since it is unlikely that the trace_seq buffer will overflow with the trace file. As the function_graph tracer goes through the trace entries keeping a pointer to the current record: current -> func1 ENTRY func2 ENTRY func2 RETURN func1 RETURN When an function ENTRY is encountered, it moves the pointer to the next entry to check if the function is a nested or leaf function. func1 ENTRY current -> func2 ENTRY func2 RETURN func1 RETURN If the rest of the writing of the function fills the trace_seq buffer, then the trace_pipe read will ignore this entry. The next read will Now start at the current location, but the first entry (func1) will be discarded. This patch keeps a copy of the current entry in the iterator private storage and will keep track of when the trace_seq buffer fills. When the trace_seq buffer fills, it will reuse the copy of the entry in the next iteration. [ This patch has been largely modified by Steven Rostedt in order to clean it up and simplify it. The original idea and concept was from Jirka and for that, this patch will go under his name to give him the credit he deserves. But because this was modify by Steven Rostedt anything wrong with the patch should be blamed on Steven. ] Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <1259067458-27143-1-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-12-09tracing: Add full state to trace_seqJohannes Berg
The trace_seq buffer might fill up, and right now one needs to check the return value of each printf into the buffer to check for that. Instead, have the buffer keep track of whether it is full or not, and reject more input if it is full or would have overflowed with an input that wasn't added.

2009-12-09tracing: Buffer the output of seq_file in case of filled bufferSteven Rostedt
If the seq_read fills the buffer it will call s_start again on the next itertation with the same position. This causes a problem with the function_graph tracer because it consumes the iteration in order to determine leaf functions. What happens is that the iterator stores the entry, and the function graph plugin will look at the next entry. If that next entry is a return of the same function and task, then the function is a leaf and the function_graph plugin calls ring_buffer_read which moves the ring buffer iterator forward (the trace iterator still points to the function start entry). The copying of the trace_seq to the seq_file buffer will fail if the seq_file buffer is full. The seq_read will not show this entry. The next read by userspace will cause seq_read to again call s_start which will reuse the trace iterator entry (the function start entry). But the function return entry was already consumed. The function graph plugin will think that this entry is a nested function and not a leaf. To solve this, the trace code now checks the return status of the seq_printf (trace_print_seq). If the writing to the seq_file buffer fails, we set a flag in the iterator (leftover) and we do not reset the trace_seq buffer. On the next call to s_start, we check the leftover flag, and if it is set, we just reuse the trace_seq buffer and do not call into the plugin print functions.

2009-12-09tracing/kprobes: Fix field creation's bad error handlingFrederic Weisbecker
When we define the common event fields in kprobe, we invert the error handling and return immediately in case of success. Then we omit to define specific kprobes fields (ip and nargs), and specific kretprobes fields (func, ret_ip, nargs). And we only define them when we fail to create common fields. The most visible consequence is that we can't create filter for k(ret)probes specific fields. This patch re-invert the success/error handling to fix it.

2009-12-09sched: Update normalized values on user updates via procChristian Ehrhardt
The normalized values are also recalculated in case the scaling factor changes. This patch updates the internally used scheduler tuning values that are normalized to one cpu in case a user sets new values via sysfs. Together with patch 2 of this series this allows to let user configured values scale (or not) to cpu add/remove events taking place later.

As scaling now takes place on all kind of cpu add/remove events a user that configures values via proc should be able to configure if his set values are still rescaled or kept whatever happens. As the comments state that log2 was just a second guess that worked the interface is not just designed for on/off, but to choose a scaling type.

2009-12-09sched: Fix task priority bugPeter Zijlstra
83f9ac removed a call to effective_prio() in wake_up_new_task(), which leads to tasks running at MAX_PRIO. This is caused by the idle thread being set to MAX_PRIO before forking off init. O(1) used that to make sure idle was always preempted, CFS uses check_preempt_curr_idle() for that so we can savely remove this bit of legacy code.

2009-12-09sched: cgroup: Implement different treatment for idle sharesPeter Zijlstra
When setting the weight for a per-cpu task-group, we have to put in a phantom weight when there is no work on that cpu, otherwise we'll not service that cpu when new work gets placed there until we again update the per-cpu weights. We used to add these phantom weights to the total, so that the idle per-cpu shares don't get inflated, this however causes the non-idle parts to get deflated, causing unexpected weight distibutions. Reverse this, so that the non-idle shares are correct but the idle shares are inflated.

2009-12-09sched: Move update_curr() in check_preempt_wakeup() to avoid redundant callJupyung Lee
If a RT task is woken up while a non-RT task is running, check_preempt_wakeup() is called to check whether the new task can preempt the old task. The function returns quickly without going deeper because it is apparent that a RT task can always preempt a non-RT task. In this situation, check_preempt_wakeup() always calls update_curr() to update vruntime value of the currently running task. However, the function call is unnecessary and redundant at that moment because (1) a non-RT task can always be preempted by a RT task regardless of its vruntime value, and (2) update_curr() will be called shortly when the context switch between two occurs. By moving update_curr() in check_preempt_wakeup(), we can avoid redundant call to update_curr(), slightly reducing the time taken to wake up RT tasks.

2009-12-09sched: Sanitize fork() handlingPeter Zijlstra
Currently we try to do task placement in wake_up_new_task() after we do the load-balance pass in sched_fork(). This yields complicated semantics in that we have to deal with tasks on different RQs and the set_task_cpu() calls in copy_process() and sched_fork() Rename ->task_new() to ->task_fork() and call it from sched_fork() before the balancing, this gives the policy a clear point to place the task.

2009-12-09sched: Remove rq->clock coupling from set_task_cpu()Peter Zijlstra
set_task_cpu() should be rq invariant and only touch task state, it currently fails to do so, which opens up a few races, since not all callers hold both rq->locks. Remove the relyance on rq->clock, as any site calling set_task_cpu() should also do a remote clock update, which should ensure the observed time between these two cpus is monotonic, as per kernel/sched_clock.c:sched_clock_remote(). Therefore we can simply remove the clock_offset bits and be happy. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-12-09hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering themFrederic Weisbecker
Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling it, changing its address, type or len, it calls modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new one. This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle. So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it after if necessary.

2009-12-07tracing: Add pipe_close interfaceSteven Rostedt
An ftrace plugin can add a pipe_open interface when the user opens trace_pipe. But if the plugin allocates something within the pipe_open it can not free it because there exists no pipe_close. The hook to the trace file open has a corresponding close. The closing of the trace_pipe file should also have a corresponding close. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-12-07hw-breakpoints: Fix task-bound breakpoint slot allocationFrederic Weisbecker
Whatever the context nature of a breakpoint, we always perform the following constraint checks before allocating it a slot: - Check the number of pinned breakpoint bound the concerned cpus - Check the max number of task-bound breakpoints that are belonging to a task. - Add both and see if we have a reamining slot for the new breakpoint This is the right thing to do when we are about to register a cpu-only bound breakpoint. But not if we are dealing with a task bound breakpoint. What we want in this case is: - Check the number of pinned breakpoint bound the concerned cpus - Check the number of breakpoints that already belong to the task in which the breakpoint to register is bound to. - Add both This fixes a regression that makes the "firefox -g" command fail to register breakpoints once we deal with a secondary thread.

2009-12-06sched: Fix balance vs hotplug racePeter Zijlstra
Since (e761b77: cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce cpu_active_map and redo sched domain managment) we have cpu_active_mask which is suppose to rule scheduler migration and load-balancing, except it never (fully) did. The particular problem being solved here is a crash in try_to_wake_up() where select_task_rq() ends up selecting an offline cpu because select_task_rq_fair() trusts the sched_domain tree to reflect the current state of affairs, similarly select_task_rq_rt() trusts the root_domain. However, the sched_domains are updated from CPU_DEAD, which is after the cpu is taken offline and after stop_machine is done. Therefore it can race perfectly well with code assuming the domains are right. Cure this by building the domains from cpu_active_mask on CPU_DOWN_PREPARE.
