2014-07-23ftrace: Rename ftrace_ops field from trampolines to nr_trampolinesSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-1/+1
Having two fields within the same struct that is off by one character can be confusing and error prone. Rename the counter "trampolines" to "nr_trampolines" to explicitly show it is a counter and not to be confused by the "trampoline" field.

2014-07-18ftrace: Remove check for HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TESTSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-2/+1
function_trace_stop is no longer used to disable function tracing. This means that archs are no longer limited if it does not support checking this variable in the mcount trampoline. No need to use the list_func for archs that do not support this obsolete method.

2014-07-17ftrace-graph: Remove dependency of ftrace_stop() from ftrace_graph_stop()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+1
ftrace_stop() is going away as it disables parts of function tracing that affects users that should not be affected. But ftrace_graph_stop() is built on ftrace_stop(). Here's another example of killing all of function tracing because something went wrong with function graph tracing. Instead of disabling all users of function tracing on function graph error, disable only function graph tracing. A new function is created called ftrace_graph_is_dead(). This is called in strategic paths to prevent function graph from doing more harm and allowing at least a warning to be printed before the system crashes. NOTE: ftrace_stop() is still used until all the archs are converted over to use ftrace_graph_is_dead(). After that, ftrace_stop() will be removed.

2014-07-16ftrace: Allow archs to specify if they need a separate function graph trampolineSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+10
Currently if an arch supports function graph tracing, the core code will just assign the function graph trampoline to the function graph addr that gets called. But as the old method for function graph tracing always calls the function trampoline first and that calls the function graph trampoline, some archs may have the function graph trampoline dependent on operations that were done in the function trampoline. This causes function graph tracer to break on those archs. Instead of having the default be to set the function graph ftrace_ops to the function graph trampoline, have it instead just set it to zero which will keep it from jumping to a trampoline that is not set up to be jumped directly too.

2014-07-01ftrace: Optimize function graph to be called directlySteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-5/+14
Function graph tracing is a bit different than the function tracers, as it is processed after either the ftrace_caller or ftrace_regs_caller and we only have one place to modify the jump to ftrace_graph_caller, the jump needs to happen after the restore of registeres. The function graph tracer is dependent on the function tracer, where even if the function graph tracing is going on by itself, the save and restore of registers is still done for function tracing regardless of if function tracing is happening, before it calls the function graph code. If there's no function tracing happening, it is possible to just call the function graph tracer directly, and avoid the wasted effort to save and restore regs for function tracing. This requires adding new flags to the dyn_ftrace records: FTRACE_FL_TRAMP FTRACE_FL_TRAMP_EN The first is set if the count for the record is one, and the ftrace_ops associated to that record has its own trampoline. That way the mcount code can call that trampoline directly. In the future, trampolines can be added to arbitrary ftrace_ops, where you can have two or more ftrace_ops registered to ftrace (like kprobes and perf) and if they are not tracing the same functions, then instead of doing a loop to check all registered ftrace_ops against their hashes, just call the ftrace_ops trampoline directly, which would call the registered ftrace_ops function directly. Without this patch perf showed: 0.05% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] ftrace_caller 0.05% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] arch_local_irq_save 0.05% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] native_sched_clock 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __buffer_unlock_commit 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] preempt_trace 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] prepare_ftrace_return 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __this_cpu_preempt_check 0.04% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] ftrace_graph_caller See that the ftrace_caller took up more time than the ftrace_graph_caller did.

2014-06-30ftrace: Use macros for numbers in ftrace rec shift bitsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-2/+5
As new flags will be added to the ftrace dynamic record, and since the flags field is also a counter, converting the numbers used to do the shifting and masking into a set of macros where we only need to deal with the max bit count of the counter and the number of bits for the flags will prevent mistakes in the future.

2014-05-21ftrace: Make CALLER_ADDRx macros more genericAKASHI Takahiro1-16/+18
Most archs with HAVE_ARCH_CALLER_ADDR have pretty much the same definitions of CALLER_ADDRx(n). Instead of duplicating the code for all the archs, define a ftrace_return_address0() and ftrace_return_address(n) that can be overwritten by the archs if they need to do something different. Instead of 7 macros in every arch, we now only have at most 2 (and actually only 1 as ftrace_return_address0() should be the same for all archs). The CALLER_ADDRx(n) will now be defined in linux/ftrace.h and use the ftrace_return_address*(n?) macros. This removes a lot of the duplicate code.

As the decision to what needs to be done (converting a call to the ftrace_caller to ftrace_caller_regs or to convert from ftrace_caller_regs to ftrace_caller) can easily be determined from the rec->flags of FTRACE_FL_REGS and FTRACE_FL_REGS_EN, there's no need to have the ftrace_check_record() return either a UPDATE_MODIFY_CALL_REGS or a UPDATE_MODIFY_CALL.

Move and rename get_ftrace_addr() and get_ftrace_addr_old() to ftrace_get_addr_new() and ftrace_get_addr_curr() respectively. This moves these two helper functions in the generic code out from the arch specific code, and renames them to have a better generic name. This will allow other archs to use them as well as makes it a bit easier to work on getting separate trampolines for different functions. ftrace_get_addr_new() returns the trampoline address that the mcount call address will be converted to. ftrace_get_addr_curr() returns the trampoline address of what the mcount call address currently jumps to.

2014-04-28ftrace/module: Hardcode ftrace_module_init() call into load_module()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+2
A race exists between module loading and enabling of function tracer. CPU 1 CPU 2 ----- ----- load_module() module->state = MODULE_STATE_COMING register_ftrace_function() mutex_lock(&ftrace_lock); ftrace_startup() update_ftrace_function(); ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare() set_all_module_text_rw(); <enables-ftrace> ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process() set_all_module_text_ro(); [ here all module text is set to RO, including the module that is loading!! ] blocking_notifier_call_chain(MODULE_STATE_COMING); ftrace_init_module() [ tries to modify code, but it's RO, and fails! ftrace_bug() is called] When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot. The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be treated as such. The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.

2014-02-20ftrace: Add private data to ftrace_opsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+12
Passing data to the function callback was originally done by adding the ftrace_ops in another structure, and using the container_of() to get the field. But this adds a bit more complexity than it is worth, and adding a simple .private field to ftrace_ops makes things a lot easier. But be warned, the .private data should not be freed once it is used unless the ftrace_ops itself has gone through the necessary freeing routines. A simple synchronize_sched() is not enough as functions can be traced that are called outside the view of RCU and all its concoctions. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-01-03tracing: Add generic tracing_lseek() functionSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-2/+0
Trace event triggers added a lseek that uses the ftrace_filter_lseek() function. Unfortunately, when function tracing is not configured in that function is not defined and the kernel fails to build. This is the second time that function was added to a file ops and it broke the build due to requiring special config dependencies. Make a generic tracing_lseek() that all the tracing utilities may use. Also, modify the old ftrace_filter_lseek() to return 0 instead of 1 on WRONLY. Not sure why it was a 1 as that does not make sense. This also changes the old tracing_seek() to modify the file pos pointer on WRONLY as well.

Add a traceoff_on_warning option in both the kernel command line as well as a sysctl option. When set, any WARN*() function that is hit will cause the tracing_on variable to be cleared, which disables writing to the ring buffer. This is useful especially when tracing a bug with function tracing. When a warning is hit, the print caused by the warning can flood the trace with the functions that producing the output for the warning. This can make the resulting trace useless by either hiding where the bug happened, or worse, by overflowing the buffer and losing the trace of the bug totally.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Along with the usual minor fixes and clean ups there are a few major changes with this pull request. 1) Multiple buffers for the ftrace facility This feature has been requested by many people over the last few years. I even heard that Google was about to implement it themselves. I finally had time and cleaned up the code such that you can now create multiple instances of the ftrace buffer and have different events go to different buffers. This way, a low frequency event will not be lost in the noise of a high frequency event. Note, currently only events can go to different buffers, the tracers (ie function, function_graph and the latency tracers) still can only be written to the main buffer. 2) The function tracer triggers have now been extended. The function tracer had two triggers. One to enable tracing when a function is hit, and one to disable tracing. Now you can record a stack trace on a single (or many) function(s), take a snapshot of the buffer (copy it to the snapshot buffer), and you can enable or disable an event to be traced when a function is hit. 3) A perf clock has been added. A "perf" clock can be chosen to be used when tracing. This will cause ftrace to use the same clock as perf uses, and hopefully this will make it easier to interleave the perf and ftrace data for analysis." * tag 'trace-3.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (82 commits) tracepoints: Prevent null probe from being added tracing: Compare to 1 instead of zero for is_signed_type() tracing: Remove obsolete macro guard _TRACE_PROFILE_INIT ftrace: Get rid of ftrace_profile_bits tracing: Check return value of tracing_init_dentry() tracing: Get rid of unneeded key calculation in ftrace_hash_move() tracing: Reset ftrace_graph_filter_enabled if count is zero tracing: Fix off-by-one on allocating stat->pages kernel: tracing: Use strlcpy instead of strncpy tracing: Update debugfs README file tracing: Fix ftrace_dump() tracing: Rename trace_event_mutex to trace_event_sem tracing: Fix comment about prefix in arch_syscall_match_sym_name() tracing: Convert trace_destroy_fields() to static tracing: Move find_event_field() into trace_events.c tracing: Use TRACE_MAX_PRINT instead of constant tracing: Use pr_warn_once instead of open coded implementation ring-buffer: Add ring buffer startup selftest tracing: Bring Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt up to date tracing: Add "perf" trace_clock ...

2013-04-12tracing: Fix possible NULL pointer dereferencesNamhyung Kim1-1/+1
Currently set_ftrace_pid and set_graph_function files use seq_lseek for their fops. However seq_open() is called only for FMODE_READ in the fops->open() so that if an user tries to seek one of those file when she open it for writing, it sees NULL seq_file and then panic. It can be easily reproduced with following command: $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing $ echo 1234 | sudo tee -a set_ftrace_pid In this example, GNU coreutils' tee opens the file with fopen(, "a") and then the fopen() internally calls lseek().

This is because the control function references a per cpu allocated data structure on struct ftrace_ops that is not allocated for other types of functions. commit 0a016409e42 "ftrace: Optimize the function tracer list loop" Had an optimization done to all function tracing loops to optimize for a single registered ops. Unfortunately, this allows for a slight race when tracing starts or ends, where the stub function might be called after the current registered ops is removed. In this case we get the following dump: root# perf stat -e ftrace:function sleep 1 [ 74.339105] WARNING: at include/linux/ftrace.h:209 ftrace_ops_control_func+0xde/0xf0() [ 74.349522] Hardware name: PRIMERGY RX200 S6 [ 74.357149] Modules linked in: sg igb iTCO_wdt ptp pps_core iTCO_vendor_support i7core_edac dca lpc_ich i2c_i801 coretemp edac_core crc32c_intel mfd_core ghash_clmulni_intel dm_multipath acpi_power_meter pcspk r microcode vhost_net tun macvtap macvlan nfsd kvm_intel kvm auth_rpcgss nfs_acl lockd sunrpc uinput xfs libcrc32c sd_mod crc_t10dif sr_mod cdrom mgag200 i2c_algo_bit drm_kms_helper ttm qla2xxx mptsas ahci drm li bahci scsi_transport_sas mptscsih libata scsi_transport_fc i2c_core mptbase scsi_tgt dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod [ 74.446233] Pid: 1377, comm: perf Tainted: G W 3.9.0-rc1 #1 [ 74.453458] Call Trace: [ 74.456233] [<ffffffff81062e3f>] warn_slowpath_common+0x7f/0xc0 [ 74.462997] [<ffffffff810fbc60>] ? rcu_note_context_switch+0xa0/0xa0 [ 74.470272] [<ffffffff811041a2>] ? __unregister_ftrace_function+0xa2/0x1a0 [ 74.478117] [<ffffffff81062e9a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [ 74.484681] [<ffffffff81102ede>] ftrace_ops_control_func+0xde/0xf0 [ 74.491760] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.497511] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.503486] [<ffffffff8162f400>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x2f [ 74.509500] [<ffffffff810fbc65>] ? synchronize_sched+0x5/0x50 [ 74.516088] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.522268] [<ffffffff810fbc65>] ? synchronize_sched+0x5/0x50 [ 74.528837] [<ffffffff811041a2>] ? __unregister_ftrace_function+0xa2/0x1a0 [ 74.536696] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.542878] [<ffffffff8162402d>] ? mutex_lock+0x1d/0x50 [ 74.548869] [<ffffffff81105c67>] unregister_ftrace_function+0x27/0x50 [ 74.556243] [<ffffffff8111eadf>] perf_ftrace_event_register+0x9f/0x140 [ 74.563709] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.569887] [<ffffffff8162402d>] ? mutex_lock+0x1d/0x50 [ 74.575898] [<ffffffff8111e94e>] perf_trace_destroy+0x2e/0x50 [ 74.582505] [<ffffffff81127ba9>] tp_perf_event_destroy+0x9/0x10 [ 74.589298] [<ffffffff811295d0>] free_event+0x70/0x1a0 [ 74.595208] [<ffffffff8112a579>] perf_event_release_kernel+0x69/0xa0 [ 74.602460] [<ffffffff816254d5>] ? _cond_resched+0x5/0x40 [ 74.608667] [<ffffffff8112a640>] put_event+0x90/0xc0 [ 74.614373] [<ffffffff8112a740>] perf_release+0x10/0x20 [ 74.620367] [<ffffffff811a3044>] __fput+0xf4/0x280 [ 74.625894] [<ffffffff811a31de>] ____fput+0xe/0x10 [ 74.631387] [<ffffffff81083697>] task_work_run+0xa7/0xe0 [ 74.637452] [<ffffffff81014981>] do_notify_resume+0x71/0xb0 [ 74.643843] [<ffffffff8162fa92>] int_signal+0x12/0x17 To fix this a new ftrace_ops flag is added that denotes the ftrace_list_end ftrace_ops stub as just that, a stub.

2013-03-15ftrace: Clean up function probe methodsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-2/+4
When a function probe is created, each function that the probe is attached to, a "callback" method is called. On release of the probe, each function entry calls the "free" method. First, "callback" is a confusing name and does not really match what it does. Callback sounds like it will be called when the probe triggers. But that's not the case. This is really an "init" function, so lets rename it as such. Secondly, both "init" and "free" do not pass enough information back to the handlers. Pass back the ops, ip and data for each time the method is called. We have the information, might as well use it. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2012-07-31ftrace: Add selftest to test function trace recursion protectionSteven Rostedt1-0/+6
Add selftests to test the function tracing recursion protection actually does work. It also tests if a ftrace_ops states it will perform its own protection. Although, even if the ftrace_ops states it will protect itself, the ftrace infrastructure may still provide protection if the arch does not support all features or another ftrace_ops is registered.

2012-07-31ftrace: Add default recursion protection for function tracingSteven Rostedt1-0/+5
As more users of the function tracer utility are being added, they do not always add the necessary recursion protection. To protect from function recursion due to tracing, if the callback ftrace_ops does not specifically specify that it protects against recursion (by setting the FTRACE_OPS_FL_RECURSION_SAFE flag), the list operation will be called by the mcount trampoline which adds recursion protection. If the flag is set, then the function will be called directly with no extra protection. Note, the list operation is called if more than one function callback is registered, or if the arch does not support all of the function tracer features.

2012-07-19ftrace/x86: Add separate function to save regsSteven Rostedt1-7/+100
Add a way to have different functions calling different trampolines. If a ftrace_ops wants regs saved on the return, then have only the functions with ops registered to save regs. Functions registered by other ops would not be affected, unless the functions overlap. If one ftrace_ops registered functions A, B and C and another ops registered fucntions to save regs on A, and D, then only functions A and D would be saving regs. Function B and C would work as normal. Although A is registered by both ops: normal and saves regs; this is fine as saving the regs is needed to satisfy one of the ops that calls it but the regs are ignored by the other ops function. x86_64 implements the full regs saving, and i386 just passes a NULL for regs to satisfy the ftrace_ops passing. Where an arch must supply both regs and ftrace_ops parameters, even if regs is just NULL. It is OK for an arch to pass NULL regs. All function trace users that require regs passing must add the flag FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS when registering the ftrace_ops. If the arch does not support saving regs then the ftrace_ops will fail to register. The flag FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS_IF_SUPPORTED may be set that will prevent the ftrace_ops from failing to register. In this case, the handler may either check if regs is not NULL or check if ARCH_SUPPORTS_FTRACE_SAVE_REGS. If the arch supports passing regs it will set this macro and pass regs for ops that request them. All other archs will just pass NULL.

Return as the 4th paramater to the function tracer callback the pt_regs. Later patches that implement regs passing for the architectures will require having the ftrace_ops set the SAVE_REGS flag, which will tell the arch to take the time to pass a full set of pt_regs to the ftrace_ops callback function. If the arch does not support it then it should pass NULL. If an arch can pass full regs, then it should define: ARCH_SUPPORTS_FTRACE_SAVE_REGS to 1 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120702201821.019966811@goodmis.org Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2012-07-19ftrace: Consolidate arch dependent functions with 'list' functionSteven Rostedt1-0/+13
As the function tracer starts to get more features, the support for theses features will spread out throughout the different architectures over time. These features boil down to what each arch does in the mcount trampoline (the ftrace_caller). Currently there's two features that are not the same throughout the archs. 1) Support to stop function tracing before the callback 2) passing of the ftrace ops Both of these require placing an indirect function to support the features if the mcount trampoline does not. On a side note, for all architectures, when more than one callback is registered to the function tracer, an intermediate 'list' function is called by the mcount trampoline to iterate through the callbacks that are registered. Instead of making a separate function for each of these features, and requiring several indirect calls, just use the single 'list' function as the intermediate, to handle all cases. If an arch does not support the 'stop function tracing' or the passing of ftrace ops, just force it to use the list function that will handle the features required. This makes the code cleaner and simpler and removes a lot of #ifdefs in the code.

2012-05-17ftrace: Return record ip addr for ftrace_location()Steven Rostedt1-1/+1
ftrace_location() is passed an addr, and returns 1 if the addr is on a ftrace nop (or caller to ftrace_caller), and 0 otherwise. To let kprobes know if it should move a breakpoint or not, it must return the actual addr that is the start of the ftrace nop. This way a kprobe placed on the location of a ftrace nop, can instead be placed on the instruction after the nop. Even if the probe addr is on the second or later byte of the nop, it can simply be moved forward.

2012-02-21ftrace, perf: Add filter support for function trace eventJiri Olsa1-3/+4
Adding support to filter function trace event via perf interface. It is now possible to use filter interface in the perf tool like: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter="(ip == mm_*)" ls The filter syntax is restricted to the the 'ip' field only, and following operators are accepted '==' '!=' '||', ending up with the filter strings like: ip == f1[, ]f2 ... || ip != f3[, ]f4 ... with comma ',' or space ' ' as a function separator. If the space ' ' is used as a separator, the right side of the assignment needs to be enclosed in double quotes '"', e.g.: perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == do_execve,sys_*,ext*)' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve,sys_*,ext*")' ls perf record -e ftrace:function --filter '(ip == "do_execve sys_* ext*")' ls The '==' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_filter file. The '!=' operator adds trace filter with same effect as would be added via set_ftrace_notrace file. The right side of the '!=', '==' operators is list of functions or regexp. to be added to filter separated by space. The '||' operator is used for connecting multiple filter definitions together. It is possible to have more than one '==' and '!=' operators within one filter string.
