bpf: permit multiple bpf attachments for a single perf event

2017-10-25T01:47:47Z

This patch enables multiple bpf attachments for a kprobe/uprobe/tracepoint single trace event. Each trace_event keeps a list of attached perf events. When an event happens, all attached bpf programs will be executed based on the order of attachment. A global bpf_event_mutex lock is introduced to protect prog_array attaching and detaching. An alternative will be introduce a mutex lock in every trace_event_call structure, but it takes a lot of extra memory. So a global bpf_event_mutex lock is a good compromise. The bpf prog detachment involves allocation of memory. If the allocation fails, a dummy do-nothing program will replace to-be-detached program in-place.

perf/ftrace: Revert ("perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:function")

2017-10-16T22:11:02Z

Revert commit: 75e8387685f6 ("perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:function") The reason I instantly stumbled on that patch is that it only addresses the ftrace situation and doesn't mention the other _5_ places that use this interface. It doesn't explain why those don't have the problem and if not, why their solution doesn't work for ftrace. It doesn't, but this is just putting more duct tape on.

tracing: Make traceprobe parsing code reusable

2017-10-04T17:06:44Z

traceprobe_probes_write() and traceprobe_command() actually contain nothing that ties them to kprobes - the code is generically useful for similar types of parsing elsewhere, so separate it out and move it to trace.c/trace.h. Other than moving it, the only change is in naming: traceprobe_probes_write() becomes trace_parse_run_command() and traceprobe_command() becomes trace_run_command().

perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:function

2017-08-29T11:29:29Z

When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug which can be reproduced by: perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 & perf record -e ftrace:function ls perf script ls 10304 [005] 171.853235: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853237: ftrace:function: perf_output_begin ls 10304 [005] 171.853239: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853240: ftrace:function: task_tgid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853242: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns ls 10304 [005] 171.853244: ftrace:function: __task_pid_nr_ns We can see that all the function traces are doubled. The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu, the traces of them will be doubled. So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event, only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.

sched/headers: Prepare to use instead of in

2017-03-02T07:42:38Z

We don't actually need the full rculist.h header in sched.h anymore, we will be able to include the smaller rcupdate.h header instead. But first update code that relied on the implicit header inclusion.

uprobe: Find last occurrence of ':' when parsing uprobe PATH:OFFSET

2017-01-17T17:57:47Z

Previously, `create_trace_uprobe` found the *first* occurence of the ':' character when parsing `PATH:OFFSET` for a uprobe. However, if the path contains a ':' character, then the function would parse the path incorrectly. Even worse, if the path does not exist, the subsequent call to `kern_path()` would set `ret` to `ENOENT`, leading to very cryptic errno values in user space. The fix is to find the *last* occurence of ':'. How to repro:: The write fails with "No such file or directory", suggesting incorrectly that the `uprobe_events` file does not exist. $ mkdir testing && cd testing $ cp /bin/bash . $ cp /bin/bash ./bash:with:colon $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x6" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this works $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x6" >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this doesn't -bash: echo: write error: No such file or directory With the patch: $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x6" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this still works $ echo "p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x6" >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # this works now too! $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_0x6 /root/testing/bash:0x0000000000000006 p:uprobes/p__root_testing_bash_with_colon_0x6 /root/testing/bash:with:colon:0x0000000000000006 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170113165834.4081016-1-kennyyu@fb.com Signed-off-by: Kenny Yu Reviewed-by: Omar Sandoval Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware)
