A forced undef of a config value was used for testing and was accidently left in during the final commit. This causes x86 to run slower than needed while running function tracing as well as causes the function graph selftest to fail when DYNMAIC_FTRACE is not set. This is because the code in MCOUNT expects the ftrace code to be processed with the config value set that happened to be forced not set.

Fix a bug introduced by e9dbfae5, which prevents event_subsystem from ever being released. Ref_count was added to keep track of subsystem users, not for counting events. Subsystem is created with ref_count = 1, so there is no need to increment it for every event, we have nr_events for that. Fix this by touching ref_count only when we actually have a new user - subsystem_open().

2011-11-17tracing: Add entries in buffer and total entries to default output headerSteven Rostedt
Knowing the number of event entries in the ring buffer compared to the total number that were written is useful information. The latency format gives this information and there's no reason that the default format does not. This information is now added to the default header, along with the number of online CPUs: # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 159836/64690869 #P:4 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | <idle>-0 [000] ...2 49.442971: local_touch_nmi <-cpu_idle <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.442973: enter_idle <-cpu_idle <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.442974: atomic_notifier_call_chain <-enter_idle <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.442976: __atomic_notifier_call_chain <-atomic_notifier The above shows that the trace contains 159836 entries, but 64690869 were written. One could figure out that there were 64531033 entries that were dropped. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-11-17tracing: Add irq, preempt-count and need resched info to default trace outputSteven Rostedt
People keep asking how to get the preempt count, irq, and need resched info and we keep telling them to enable the latency format. Some developers think that traces without this info is completely useless, and for a lot of tasks it is useless. The first option was to enable the latency trace as the default format, but the header for the latency format is pretty useless for most tracers and it also does the timestamp in straight microseconds from the time the trace started. This is sometimes more difficult to read as the default trace is seconds from the start of boot up. Latency format: # tracer: nop # # nop latency trace v1.1.5 on 3.2.0-rc1-test+ # -------------------------------------------------------------------- # latency: 0 us, #159771/64234230, CPU#1 | (M:preempt VP:0, KP:0, SP:0 HP:0 #P:4) # ----------------- # | task: -0 (uid:0 nice:0 policy:0 rt_prio:0) # ----------------- # # _------=> CPU# # / _-----=> irqs-off # | / _----=> need-resched # || / _---=> hardirq/softirq # ||| / _--=> preempt-depth # |||| / delay # cmd pid ||||| time | caller # \ / ||||| \ | / migratio-6 0...2 41778231us+: rcu_note_context_switch <-__schedule migratio-6 0...2 41778233us : trace_rcu_utilization <-rcu_note_context_switch migratio-6 0...2 41778235us+: rcu_sched_qs <-rcu_note_context_switch migratio-6 0d..2 41778236us+: rcu_preempt_qs <-rcu_note_context_switch migratio-6 0...2 41778238us : trace_rcu_utilization <-rcu_note_context_switch migratio-6 0...2 41778239us+: debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled <-__schedule default format: # tracer: nop # # TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | | | migration/0-6 [000] 50.025810: rcu_note_context_switch <-__schedule migration/0-6 [000] 50.025812: trace_rcu_utilization <-rcu_note_context_switch migration/0-6 [000] 50.025813: rcu_sched_qs <-rcu_note_context_switch migration/0-6 [000] 50.025815: rcu_preempt_qs <-rcu_note_context_switch migration/0-6 [000] 50.025817: trace_rcu_utilization <-rcu_note_context_switch migration/0-6 [000] 50.025818: debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled <-__schedule migration/0-6 [000] 50.025820: debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled <-__schedule The latency format header has latency information that is pretty meaningless for most tracers. Although some of the header is useful, and we can add that later to the default format as well. What is really useful with the latency format is the irqs-off, need-resched hard/softirq context and the preempt count. This commit adds the option irq-info which is on by default that adds this information: # tracer: nop # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.309305: cpuidle_get_driver <-cpuidle_idle_call <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.309307: mwait_idle <-cpu_idle <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.309309: need_resched <-mwait_idle <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.309310: test_ti_thread_flag <-need_resched <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.309312: trace_power_start.constprop.13 <-mwait_idle <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.309313: trace_cpu_idle <-mwait_idle <idle>-0 [000] d..2 49.309315: need_resched <-mwait_idle If a user wants the old format, they can disable the 'irq-info' option: # tracer: nop # # TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | | | <idle>-0 [000] 49.309305: cpuidle_get_driver <-cpuidle_idle_call <idle>-0 [000] 49.309307: mwait_idle <-cpu_idle <idle>-0 [000] 49.309309: need_resched <-mwait_idle <idle>-0 [000] 49.309310: test_ti_thread_flag <-need_resched <idle>-0 [000] 49.309312: trace_power_start.constprop.13 <-mwait_idle <idle>-0 [000] 49.309313: trace_cpu_idle <-mwait_idle <idle>-0 [000] 49.309315: need_resched <-mwait_idle Requested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2011-11-04tracing: Add boiler plate for subsystem filterSteven Rostedt
The system filter can be used to set multiple event filters that exist within the system. But currently it displays the last filter written that does not necessarily correspond to the filters within the system. The system filter itself is not used to filter any events. The system filter is just a means to set filters of the events within it. Because this causes an ambiguous state when the system filter reads a filter string but the events within the system have different strings it is best to just show a boiler plate: ### global filter ### # Use this to set filters for multiple events. # Only events with the given fields will be affected. # If no events are modified, an error message will be displayed here. If an error occurs while writing to the system filter, the system filter will replace the boiler plate with the error message as it currently does. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The cached page is used to handle the case of the user space buffer being smaller than what was read from the ring buffer. The left over buffer is held in the cache so that the next read will continue where the data left off. After EOF is returned (no more data in the buffer), the index of the cached page is set to zero. If a user app reads the page again after EOF, the check in the buffer will see that the cached page is less than page size and will return the cached page again. This will cause reading the trace_pipe_raw again after EOF to return duplicate data, making the output look like the time went backwards but instead data is just repeated. The fix is to not reset the index right after all data is read from the cache, but to reset it after all data is read and more data exists in the ring buffer.

2011-10-11tracing: Do not allocate buffer for trace_markerSteven Rostedt
When doing intense tracing, the kmalloc inside trace_marker can introduce side effects to what is being traced. As trace_marker() is used by userspace to inject data into the kernel ring buffer, it needs to do so with the least amount of intrusion to the operations of the kernel or the user space application. As the ring buffer is designed to write directly into the buffer without the need to make a temporary buffer, and userspace already went through the hassle of knowing how big the write will be, we can simply pin the userspace pages and write the data directly into the buffer. This improves the impact of tracing via trace_marker tremendously! Thanks to Peter Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner for pointing out the use of get_user_pages_fast() and kmap_atomic().

2011-10-11tracing: Warn on output if the function tracer was found corruptedSteven Rostedt
As the function tracer is very intrusive, lots of self checks are performed on the tracer and if something is found to be strange it will shut itself down keeping it from corrupting the rest of the kernel. This shutdown may still allow functions to be traced, as the tracing only stops new modifications from happening. Trying to stop the function tracer itself can cause more harm as it requires code modification. Although a WARN_ON() is executed, a user may not notice it. To help the user see that something isn't right with the tracing of the system a big warning is added to the output of the tracer that lets the user know that their data may be incomplete.

2011-09-19tracing: Add a counter clock for those that do not trust clocksSteven Rostedt
When debugging tight race conditions, it can be helpful to have a synchronized tracing method. Although in most cases the global clock provides this functionality, if timings is not the issue, it is more comforting to know that the order of events really happened in a precise order. Instead of using a clock, add a "counter" that is simply an incrementing atomic 64bit counter that orders the events as they are perceived to happen. The trace_clock_counter() is added from the attempt by Peter Zijlstra trying to convert the trace_clock_global() to it. I took Peter's counter code and made trace_clock_counter() instead, and added it to the choice of clocks. Just echo counter > /debug/tracing/trace_clock to activate it.

2011-08-30trace: Add ring buffer stats to measure rate of eventsVaibhav Nagarnaik
The stats file under per_cpu folder provides the number of entries, overruns and other statistics about the CPU ring buffer. However, the numbers do not provide any indication of how full the ring buffer is in bytes compared to the overall size in bytes. Also, it is helpful to know the rate at which the cpu buffer is filling up. This patch adds an entry "bytes: " in printed stats for per_cpu ring buffer which provides the actual bytes consumed in the ring buffer. This field includes the number of bytes used by recorded events and the padding bytes added when moving the tail pointer to next page. It also adds the following time stamps: "oldest event ts:" - the oldest timestamp in the ring buffer "now ts:" - the timestamp at the time of reading The field "now ts" provides a consistent time snapshot to the userspace when being read. This is read from the same trace clock used by tracing event timestamps. Together, these values provide the rate at which the buffer is filling up, from the formula: bytes / (now_ts - oldest_event_ts) Signed-off-by: Vaibhav Nagarnaik <vnagarnaik@google.com> Cc: Michael Rubin <mrubin@google.com> Cc: David Sharp <dhsharp@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1313531179-9323-3-git-send-email-vnagarnaik@google.com Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
