14 years agotracing: Create new DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
Steven Rostedt [Thu, 19 Nov 2009 01:36:26 +0000 (20:36 -0500)]
tracing: Create new DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT

After creating the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE I started to look at other
trace points to see what duplication was made. I noticed that there
are several trace points where they are almost identical except for
the name and the output format. Since TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE was successful
in bringing down the size of trace events, I added a DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT.

DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT is used just like DEFINE_EVENT is. That is, the
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT also uses a TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE, but it allows the
developer to overwrite the print format. If there are two or more
TRACE_EVENTS that are identical except for the name and print, then
they can be converted to use a TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE. Since the
TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE already does the print output, the first trace event
would have its print format held in the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE and
be defined with a DEFINE_EVENT. The rest will use the DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
and override the print format.

Converting the sched trace points to both DEFINE_EVENT and
DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT. Five were converted to DEFINE_EVENT and two were
converted to DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT.

I was able to get the following:

$ size kernel/sched.o-*
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  79299    6776    2520   88595   15a13 kernel/sched.o-notrace
 101941   11896    2584  116421   1c6c5 kernel/sched.o-templ
 104779   11896    2584  119259   1d1db kernel/sched.o-trace

sched.o-notrace is the scheduler compiled with no trace points.
sched.o-templ is with the use of DEFINE_EVENT and DEFINE_EVENT_PRINT
sched.o-trace is the current trace events.

14 years agotracing: Create new TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE
Steven Rostedt [Thu, 19 Nov 2009 01:27:27 +0000 (20:27 -0500)]
tracing: Create new TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE

There are some places in the kernel that define several tracepoints and
they are all identical besides the name. The code to enable, disable and
record is created for every trace point even if most of the code is
identical.

This patch adds TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE that lets the developer create
a template TRACE_EVENT and create trace points with DEFINE_EVENT, which
is based off of a given template. Each trace point used by this
will share most of the code, and bring down the size of the kernel
when there are several duplicate events.

Usage is:

TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE(name, proto, args, tstruct, assign, print);

Which would be the same as defining a normal TRACE_EVENT.

To create the trace events that the trace points will use:

DEFINE_EVENT(template, name, proto, args) is done. The template
is the name of the TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE to use. The name is the
name of the trace point. The parameters proto and args must be the same
as the proto and args of the template. If they are not the same,
then a compile error will result. I tried hard removing this duplication
but the C preprocessor is not powerful enough (or my CPP magic
experience points is not at a high enough level) to not need them.

A lot of trace events are coming in with new XFS development. Most of
the trace points are identical except for the name. The following shows
the advantage of having TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE:

$ size fs/xfs/xfs.o.*
    text          data     bss     dec     hex filename
  452114          2788    3520  458422   6feb6 fs/xfs/xfs.o.old
  638482         38116    3744  680342   a6196 fs/xfs/xfs.o.template
  996954         38116    4480 1039550   fdcbe fs/xfs/xfs.o.trace

xfs.o.old is without any tracepoints.
xfs.o.template uses the new TRACE_EVENT_TEMPLATE.
xfs.o.trace uses the current TRACE_EVENT macros.

perf_events: Restore sanity to scaling land

It is quite possible to call update_event_times() on a context
that isn't actually running and thereby confuse the thing.

perf stat was reporting !100% scale values for software counters
(2e2af50b perf_events: Disable events when we detach them,
solved the worst of that, but there was still some left).

The thing that happens is that because we are not self-reaping
(we have a caring parent) there is a time between the last
schedule (out) and having do_exit() called which will detach the
events.

This period would be accounted as enabled,!running because the
event->state==INACTIVE, even though !event->ctx->is_active.

Similar issues could have been observed by calling read() on a
event while the attached task was not scheduled in.

Solve this by teaching update_event_times() about
ctx->is_active.

This patch fixes the default watermark value for the sampling
buffer. With the existing calculation (watermark =
max(PAGE_SIZE, max_size / 2)), no notification was ever received

never cross the threshold (there is no partial samples).

In certain configuration, there was no possibilty detecting the
problem because there was not enough space left to store the
LOST record.In fact, there may be a more generic problem here.
The kernel should ensure that there is alaways enough space to
store one LOST record.

This patch sets the default watermark to half the buffer size.
With such limit, we are guaranteed to get a notification even
with a single page buffer assuming no sample is bigger than a

As Corey reported, the total_enabled and total_running times
could occasionally be 0, even though there were events counted.

It turns out this is because we record the times before reading

This patch corrects that.

While looking at this code I found that there is a lot of

14 years agox86: Instruction decoder test should generate build warning

x86: Instruction decoder test should generate build warning

Since some instructions are not decoded correctly by older
versions of objdump, it may cause false positive error in insn
decoder posttest.

This changes build error of insn decoder test to build warning.

perf_event: Optimize perf_output_lock()

The purpose of perf_output_{un,}lock() is to:

 1) avoid publishing incomplete data
    [ possible when publishing a head that is ahead of an entry
      that is still being written ]

 2) guarantee fwd progress
    [ a simple refcount on pending writers doesn't need to drop to
      0, making it so would end up implementing something like forced
      quiecent states of RCU ]

To satisfy the above without undue complexity it serializes
between CPUs, this means that a pending writer can only be the
same cpu in a nested context, and since (under normal operation)
a cpu always makes progress we're good -- if the head is only
published when the bottom  most writer completes.

Now we don't need to disable IRQs in order to serialize between
CPUs, disabling preemption ought to be sufficient, esp since we
already deal with nesting due to NMIs.

This avoids potentially expensive (and needless) local IRQ
disable/enable ops.
