Pull tracing update from Steven Rostedt: "This batch of changes is mostly clean ups and small bug fixes. The only real feature that was added this release is from Namhyung Kim, who introduced "set_graph_notrace" filter that lets you run the function graph tracer and not trace particular functions and their call chain. Tom Zanussi added some updates to the ftrace multibuffer tracing that made it more consistent with the top level tracing. One of the fixes for perf function tracing required an API change in RCU; the addition of "rcu_is_watching()". As Paul McKenney is pushing that change in this release too, he gave me a branch that included all the changes to get that working, and I pulled that into my tree in order to complete the perf function tracing fix" * tag 'trace-3.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Add rcu annotation for syscall trace descriptors tracing: Do not use signed enums with unsigned long long in fgragh output tracing: Remove unused function ftrace_off_permanent() tracing: Do not assign filp->private_data to freed memory tracing: Add helper function tracing_is_disabled() tracing: Open tracer when ftrace_dump_on_oops is used tracing: Add support for SOFT_DISABLE to syscall events tracing: Make register/unregister_ftrace_command __init tracing: Update event filters for multibuffer recordmcount.pl: Add support for __fentry__ ftrace: Have control op function callback only trace when RCU is watching rcu: Do not trace rcu_is_watching() functions ftrace/x86: skip over the breakpoint for ftrace caller trace/trace_stat: use rbtree postorder iteration helper instead of opencoding ftrace: Add set_graph_notrace filter ftrace: Narrow down the protected area of graph_lock ftrace: Introduce struct ftrace_graph_data ftrace: Get rid of ftrace_graph_filter_enabled tracing: Fix potential out-of-bounds in trace_get_user() tracing: Show more exact help information about snapshot

tracing: Add rcu annotation for syscall trace descriptors

2013-11-11T16:47:06Z

sparse complains about the enter/exit_sysycall_files[] variables being dereferenced with rcu_dereference_sched(). The fields need to be annotated with __rcu. Reported-by: kbuild test robot Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ftrace, sched: Add TRACE_FLAG_PREEMPT_RESCHED

2013-11-11T11:43:39Z

Since the introduction of PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED in: f27dde8deef3 ("sched: Add NEED_RESCHED to the preempt_count") we need to be able to look at both TIF_NEED_RESCHED and PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED to understand the full preemption behaviour. Add it to the trace output.

tracing: Do not use signed enums with unsigned long long in fgragh output

2013-11-06T20:26:56Z

The duration field of print_graph_duration() can also be used to do the space filling by passing an enum in it: DURATION_FILL_FULL DURATION_FILL_START DURATION_FILL_END The problem is that these are enums and defined as negative, but the duration field is unsigned long long. Most archs are fine with this but blackfin fails to compile because of it: kernel/built-in.o: In function `print_graph_duration': kernel/trace/trace_functions_graph.c:782: undefined reference to `__ucmpdi2' Overloading a unsigned long long with an signed enum is just bad in principle. We can accomplish the same thing by using part of the flags field instead. Cc: Mike Frysinger Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Add helper function tracing_is_disabled()

This patch creates the function 'tracing_is_disabled', which can be used outside of trace.c. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1382141754-12155-1-git-send-email-geyslan@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Geyslan G. Bem Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Add support for SOFT_DISABLE to syscall events

2013-11-05T22:48:49Z

The original SOFT_DISABLE patches didn't add support for soft disable of syscall events; this adds it. Add an array of ftrace_event_file pointers indexed by syscall number to the trace array and remove the existing enabled bitmaps, which as a result are now redundant. The ftrace_event_file structs in turn contain the soft disable flags we need for per-syscall soft disable accounting. Adding ftrace_event_files also means we can remove the USE_CALL_FILTER bit, thus enabling multibuffer filter support for syscall events.

tracing: Update event filters for multibuffer

2013-11-05T21:50:20Z

The trace event filters are still tied to event calls rather than event files, which means you don't get what you'd expect when using filters in the multibuffer case: Before: # echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 8192 # mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1 # echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 2048 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 2048 Setting the filter in tracing/instances/test1/events shouldn't affect the same event in tracing/events as it does above. After: # echo 'bytes_alloc > 8192' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 8192 # mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1 # echo 'bytes_alloc > 2048' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 8192 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test1/events/kmem/kmalloc/filter bytes_alloc > 2048 We'd like to just move the filter directly from ftrace_event_call to ftrace_event_file, but there are a couple cases that don't yet have multibuffer support and therefore have to continue using the current event_call-based filters. For those cases, a new USE_CALL_FILTER bit is added to the event_call flags, whose main purpose is to keep the old behavior for those cases until they can be updated with multibuffer support; at that point, the USE_CALL_FILTER flag (and the new associated call_filter_check_discard() function) can go away. The multibuffer support also made filter_current_check_discard() redundant, so this change removes that function as well and replaces it with filter_check_discard() (or call_filter_check_discard() as appropriate).

ftrace: Add set_graph_notrace filter

2013-10-19T02:23:16Z

The set_graph_notrace filter is analogous to set_ftrace_notrace and can be used for eliminating uninteresting part of function graph trace output. It also works with set_graph_function nicely. # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/ # echo do_page_fault > set_graph_function # perf ftrace live true 2) | do_page_fault() { 2) | __do_page_fault() { 2) 0.381 us | down_read_trylock(); 2) 0.055 us | __might_sleep(); 2) 0.696 us | find_vma(); 2) | handle_mm_fault() { 2) | handle_pte_fault() { 2) | __do_fault() { 2) | filemap_fault() { 2) | find_get_page() { 2) 0.033 us | __rcu_read_lock(); 2) 0.035 us | __rcu_read_unlock(); 2) 1.696 us | } 2) 0.031 us | __might_sleep(); 2) 2.831 us | } 2) | _raw_spin_lock() { 2) 0.046 us | add_preempt_count(); 2) 0.841 us | } 2) 0.033 us | page_add_file_rmap(); 2) | _raw_spin_unlock() { 2) 0.057 us | sub_preempt_count(); 2) 0.568 us | } 2) | unlock_page() { 2) 0.084 us | page_waitqueue(); 2) 0.126 us | __wake_up_bit(); 2) 1.117 us | } 2) 7.729 us | } 2) 8.397 us | } 2) 8.956 us | } 2) 0.085 us | up_read(); 2) + 12.745 us | } 2) + 13.401 us | } ... # echo handle_mm_fault > set_graph_notrace # perf ftrace live true 1) | do_page_fault() { 1) | __do_page_fault() { 1) 0.205 us | down_read_trylock(); 1) 0.041 us | __might_sleep(); 1) 0.344 us | find_vma(); 1) 0.069 us | up_read(); 1) 4.692 us | } 1) 5.311 us | } ...

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Not much changes for the 3.12 merge window. The major tracing changes are still in flux, and will have to wait for 3.13. The changes for 3.12 are mostly clean ups and minor fixes. H Peter Anvin added a check to x86_32 static function tracing that helps a small segment of the kernel community. Oleg Nesterov had a few changes from 3.11, but were mostly clean ups and not worth pushing in the -rc time frame. Li Zefan had small clean up with annotating a raw_init with __init. I fixed a slight race in updating function callbacks, but the race is so small and the bug that happens when it occurs is so minor it's not even worth pushing to stable. The only real enhancement is from Alexander Z Lam that made the tracing_cpumask work for trace buffer instances, instead of them all sharing a global cpumask" * tag 'trace-3.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace/rcu: Do not trace debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() x86-32, ftrace: Fix static ftrace when early microcode is enabled ftrace: Fix a slight race in modifying what function callback gets traced tracing: Make tracing_cpumask available for all instances tracing: Kill the !CONFIG_MODULES code in trace_events.c tracing: Don't pass file_operations array to event_create_dir() tracing: Kill trace_create_file_ops() and friends tracing/syscalls: Annotate raw_init function with __init
