tools/rv: Stop gracefully also on SIGTERM

2025-07-24T14:43:46+00:00

Currently the userspace RV tool starts a monitor and waits for the user to press Ctrl-C (SIGINT) to terminate and stop the monitor. This doesn't account for a scenario where a user starts RV in background and simply kills it (SIGTERM unless the user specifies differently). E.g.: # rv mon wip & # kill % Would terminate RV without stopping the monitor and next RV executions won't start correctly. Register the signal handler used for SIGINT also to SIGTERM.

tools/rv: Do not skip idle in trace

2025-07-24T14:43:46+00:00

Currently, the userspace RV tool skips trace events triggered by the RV tool itself, this can be changed by passing the parameter -s, which sets the variable config_my_pid to 0 (instead of the tool's PID). This has the side effect of skipping events generated by idle (PID 0). Set config_my_pid to -1 (an invalid pid) to avoid skipping idle.

tools/rv: Allow rv list to filter for container

2025-03-24T21:27:40+00:00

Add possibility to supply the container name to rv list: # rv list sched mon1 mon2 mon3 This lists only monitors in sched, without indentation. Supplying -h, any option (string starting with -) or more than 1 argument will still print the usage. Passing a non-existent container prints nothing and passing no container continues to print all monitors, showing indentation for nested monitors, reported after their container.

tools/rv: Add support for nested monitors

2025-03-24T21:27:40+00:00

RV now supports nested monitors, this functionality requires a container monitor, which has virtually no functionality besides holding other monitors, and nested monitors, that have a container as parent. Nested monitors' sysfs folders are physically nested in the container's folder, and they are listed in the available_monitors file with the notation container:monitor. These changes go against the assumption that each line in the available_monitors file correspond to a folder in the rv directory, breaking the functionality of the rv tool. Add support for nested containers in the rv userspace tool, indenting nested monitors while listed and allowing both the notation with and without container name, which are equivalent: # rv list mon1 mon2 container: - nested1 - nested2 ## notation with container name # rv mon container:nested1 ## notation without container name # rv mon nested1 Either way, enabling a nested monitor is the same as enabling any other non-nested monitor. Selecting the container with rv mon enables all the nested monitors, if -t is passed, the trace also includes the monitor name next to the event: # rv mon nested1 -t -0 [004] event state1 x event -> state2 -0 [004] error event not expected in state2 # rv mon sched -t -0 [004] event_nested1 state1 x event -> state2 -0 [004] error_nested1 event not expected in state2 Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Juri Lelli Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250305140406.350227-7-gmonaco@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Gabriele Monaco Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google)

tools/rv: Correct the grammatical errors in the comments

The word "trace" begins with a consonant sound, so "a" should be used instead of "an". Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20240903003019.8969-1-bajing@cmss.chinamobile.com Signed-off-by: Ba Jing Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google)

The variable run is not initialized however it is being accumulated by the return value from the call to ikm_run_monitor. Fix this by initializing run to zero at the start of the function.
