15 years agotracing: new format for specialized trace points
Steven Rostedt [Mon, 9 Mar 2009 21:14:30 +0000 (17:14 -0400)]
tracing: new format for specialized trace points

Impact: clean up and enhancement

The TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT macro looks quite ugly and is limited in its
ability to save data as well as to print the record out. Working with
Ingo Molnar, we came up with a new format that is much more pleasing to
the eye of C developers. This new macro is more C style than the old
macro, and is more obvious to what it does.

Here's the example. The only updated macro in this patch is the
sched_switch trace point.

The old method looked like this:

 TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(sched_switch,
        TP_PROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev,
                struct task_struct *next),
        TP_ARGS(rq, prev, next),
        TP_FMT("task %s:%d ==> %s:%d",
              prev->comm, prev->pid, next->comm, next->pid),
        TRACE_STRUCT(
                TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, prev_pid, prev->pid)
                TRACE_FIELD(int, prev_prio, prev->prio)
                TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL(char next_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN],
                                    next_comm,
                                    TP_CMD(memcpy(TRACE_ENTRY->next_comm,
                                                 next->comm,
                                                 TASK_COMM_LEN)))
                TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, next_pid, next->pid)
                TRACE_FIELD(int, next_prio, next->prio)
        ),
        TP_RAW_FMT("prev %d:%d ==> next %s:%d:%d")
        );

The above method is hard to read and requires two format fields.

The new method:

 /*
  * Tracepoint for task switches, performed by the scheduler:
  *
  * (NOTE: the 'rq' argument is not used by generic trace events,
  *        but used by the latency tracer plugin. )
  */
 TRACE_EVENT(sched_switch,

TP_PROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev,
 struct task_struct *next),

TP_ARGS(rq, prev, next),

TP_STRUCT__entry(
__array( char, prev_comm, TASK_COMM_LEN )
__field( pid_t, prev_pid )
__field( int, prev_prio )
__array( char, next_comm, TASK_COMM_LEN )
__field( pid_t, next_pid )
__field( int, next_prio )
),

TP_printk("task %s:%d [%d] ==> %s:%d [%d]",
__entry->prev_comm, __entry->prev_pid, __entry->prev_prio,
__entry->next_comm, __entry->next_pid, __entry->next_prio),

TP_fast_assign(
memcpy(__entry->next_comm, next->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN);
__entry->prev_pid = prev->pid;
__entry->prev_prio = prev->prio;
memcpy(__entry->prev_comm, prev->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN);
__entry->next_pid = next->pid;
__entry->next_prio = next->prio;
)
 );

This macro is called TRACE_EVENT, it is broken up into 5 parts:

 TP_PROTO:        the proto type of the trace point
 TP_ARGS:         the arguments of the trace point
 TP_STRUCT_entry: the structure layout of the entry in the ring buffer
 TP_printk:       the printk format
 TP_fast_assign:  the method used to write the entry into the ring buffer

The structure is the definition of how the event will be saved in the
ring buffer. The printk is used by the internal tracing in case of
an oops, and the kernel needs to print out the format of the record
to the console. This the TP_printk gives a means to show the records
in a human readable format. It is also used to print out the data
from the trace file.

The TP_fast_assign is executed directly. It is basically like a C function,
where the __entry is the handle to the record.

15 years agotracing: Don't use tracing_record_cmdline() in workqueue tracer

tracing: Don't use tracing_record_cmdline() in workqueue tracer

Impact: improve workqueue tracer output

Currently, /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/workqueues can display
wrong and strange thread names.

Why?

Currently, ftrace has tracing_record_cmdline()/trace_find_cmdline()
convenience function that implements a task->comm string cache.

This can avoid unnecessary memcpy overhead and the workqueue tracer
uses it.

However, in general, any trace statistics feature shouldn't use
tracing_record_cmdline() because trace statistics can display
very old process. Then comm cache can return wrong string because
recent process overrides the cache.

Fortunately, workqueue trace guarantees that displayed processes
are live. Thus we can search comm string from PID at display time.

Percpu allocation always uses GFP_KERNEL and whole alloc/free paths
were protected by single mutex.  All percpu allocations have been from
GFP_KERNEL-safe context and the original allocator had this assumption
too.  However, by protecting both alloc and free paths with the same
mutex, the new allocator creates free -> alloc -> GFP_KERNEL
dependency which the original allocator didn't have.  This can lead to
deadlock if free is called from FS or IO paths.  Also, in general,
allocators are expected to allow free to be called from atomic
context.

This patch implements finer grained locking to break the deadlock and
allow atomic free.  For details, please read the "Synchronization

Now that we have trace_bprintk() which is faster and consume lesser
memory than trace_printk() and has the same purpose, we can now drop
the old implementation in favour of the binary one from trace_bprintk(),
which means we move all the implementation of trace_bprintk() to
trace_printk(), so the Api doesn't change except that we must now use
trace_seq_bprintk() to print the TRACE_PRINT entries.

Some changes result of this:

- Previously, trace_bprintk depended of a single tracer and couldn't
  work without. This tracer has been dropped and the whole implementation
  of trace_printk() (like the module formats management) is now integrated
  in the tracing core (comes with CONFIG_TRACING), though we keep the file
  trace_printk (previously trace_bprintk.c) where we can find the module
  management. Thus we don't overflow trace.c

- changes some parts to use trace_seq_bprintk() to print TRACE_PRINT entries.

- change a bit trace_printk/trace_vprintk macros to support non-builtin formats
  constants, and fix 'const' qualifiers warnings. But this is all transparent for
  developers.

- etc...

V2:

- Rebase against last changes
- Fix mispell on the changelog

make trace_printk() consuming less memory and be faster.

Written by Lai Jiangshan, the approach is to delay the formatting
job from tracing time to output time.

Currently, a call to trace_printk() will format the whole string and
insert it into the ring buffer. Then you can read it on /debug/tracing/trace
file.

The new implementation stores the address of the format string and
the binary parameters into the ring buffer, making the packet more compact
and faster to insert.
Later, when the user exports the traces, the format string is retrieved
with the binary parameters and the formatting job is eventually done.

The new implementation rewrites a lot of format decoding bits from
vsnprintf() function, making now 3 differents functions to maintain
in their duplicated parts of printf format decoding bits.

Suggested by Ingo Molnar, this patch tries to factorize the most
possible common bits from these functions.
The real common part between them is the format decoding. Although
they do somewhat similar jobs, their way to export or import the parameters
is very different. Thus, only the decoding layer is extracted, unless you see
other parts that could be worth factorized.

Changes in V2:

- Address a suggestion from Linus to group the format_decode() parameters inside
  a structure.

Changes in v3:

- Address other cleanups suggested by Ingo and Linus such as passing the
  printf_spec struct to the format helpers: pointer()/number()/string()
  Note that this struct is passed by copy and not by address. This is to
  avoid side effects because these functions often change these values and the
  changes shoudn't be persistant when a callee helper returns.
  It would be too risky.

- Various cleanups (code alignement, switch/case instead of if/else fountains).

- Fix a bug that printed the first format specifier following a %p

Changes in v4:

- drop unapropriate const qualifier loss while casting fmt to a char *
  (thanks to Vegard Nossum for having pointed this out).

symbols whether in core or modules must be inside 2GB of the percpu
segement base which the dynamic percpu allocator doesn't guarantee.
This patch makes x86_64 reserve PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE bytes in the

first chunk which is always inside the relocatable range.

This problem exists for any percpu allocator but is easily triggered
when using the embedding allocator because the second chunk is located
beyond 2GB on it.

This patch also changes the meaning of PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE such
that it only indicates the size of the area to reserve for dynamic
allocation as static and dynamic areas can be separate.  New
PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVED is increased by 4k for both 32 and 64bits as
the reserved area separation eats away some allocatable space and
having slightly more headroom (currently between 4 and 8k after
minimal boot sans module area) makes sense for common case
performance.

x86_32 can address anywhere from anywhere and doesn't need reserving.

If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and

the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation.  The first one

percpu: improve first chunk initial area map handling

When the first chunk is created, its initial area map is not allocated
because kmalloc isn't online yet.  The map is allocated and
initialized on the first allocation request on the chunk.  This works
fine but the scattering of initialization logic between the init

tracing: add tracing_on/tracing_off to kernel.h

Impact: cleanup

The functions tracing_start/tracing_stop have been moved to kernel.h.
These are not the functions a developer most likely wants to use
when they want to insert a place to stop tracing and restart it from
user space.

tracing_start/tracing_stop was created to work with things like
suspend to ram, where even calling smp_processor_id() can crash the
system. The tracing_start/tracing_stop was used to stop the tracer from
doing anything. These are still light weight functions, but add a bit
more overhead to be able to stop the tracers. They also have no interface
back to userland. That is, if the kernel calls tracing_stop, userland
can not start tracing.

What a developer most likely wants to use is tracing_on/tracing_off.
These are very light weight functions (simply sets or clears a bit).
These functions just stop recording into the ring buffer. The tracers
don't even know that this happens except that they would receive NULL
from the ring_buffer_lock_reserve function.

Also, there's a way for the user land to enable or disable this bit.
In debugfs/tracing/tracing_on, a user may echo "0" (same as tracing_off())
or echo "1" (same as tracing_on()) into this file. This becomes handy when
a kernel developer is debugging and wants tracing to turn off when it
hits an anomaly. Then the developer can examine the trace, and restart
tracing if they want to try again (echo 1 > tracing_on).

This patch moves the prototypes for tracing_on/tracing_off to kernel.h
and comments their use, so that a kernel developer will know how
to use them.
