| * tracing: Fix setting tracer specific optionsSteven Rostedt2009-12-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function __set_tracer_option() takes as its last parameter a "neg" value. If set it should negate the value of the option. The trace_options_write() passed the value written to the file which is what the new value needs to be set as. But since this is not the negative, it never sets the value.

One way is to use dynamic function tracing and implement the func_stack_trace. But this only finds out who is calling a particular function. It does not tell you who is calling that function and entering a specific if conditional. I have myself implemented a quick version of trace_dump_stack() for this purpose a few times, and just needed it now. This is when I realized that this would be a good tool to have in the kernel like trace_printk(). Using trace_dump_stack() is similar to dump_stack() except that it writes to the trace buffer instead and can be used in critical locations.

* | tracing: Remove comparing of NULL to va_list in trace_array_vprintk()Carsten Emde2009-12-091-6/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Olof Johansson stated the following: Comparing a va_list with NULL is bogus. It's supposed to be treated like an opaque type and only be manipulated with va_* accessors. Olof noticed that this code broke the ARM builds: kernel/trace/trace.c: In function 'trace_array_vprintk': kernel/trace/trace.c:1364: error: invalid operands to binary == (have 'va_list' and 'void *') kernel/trace/trace.c: In function 'tracing_mark_write': kernel/trace/trace.c:3349: error: incompatible type for argument 3 of 'trace_vprintk' This patch partly reverts c13d2f7c3231e873f30db92b96c8caa48f100f33 and re-installs the original mark_printk() mechanism.

* | tracing: Buffer the output of seq_file in case of filled bufferSteven Rostedt2009-12-091-3/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the seq_read fills the buffer it will call s_start again on the next itertation with the same position. This causes a problem with the function_graph tracer because it consumes the iteration in order to determine leaf functions. What happens is that the iterator stores the entry, and the function graph plugin will look at the next entry. If that next entry is a return of the same function and task, then the function is a leaf and the function_graph plugin calls ring_buffer_read which moves the ring buffer iterator forward (the trace iterator still points to the function start entry). The copying of the trace_seq to the seq_file buffer will fail if the seq_file buffer is full. The seq_read will not show this entry. The next read by userspace will cause seq_read to again call s_start which will reuse the trace iterator entry (the function start entry). But the function return entry was already consumed. The function graph plugin will think that this entry is a nested function and not a leaf. To solve this, the trace code now checks the return status of the seq_printf (trace_print_seq). If the writing to the seq_file buffer fails, we set a flag in the iterator (leftover) and we do not reset the trace_seq buffer. On the next call to s_start, we check the leftover flag, and if it is set, we just reuse the trace_seq buffer and do not call into the plugin print functions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An ftrace plugin can add a pipe_open interface when the user opens trace_pipe. But if the plugin allocates something within the pipe_open it can not free it because there exists no pipe_close. The hook to the trace file open has a corresponding close. The closing of the trace_pipe file should also have a corresponding close. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

* tracing: move tgid out of generic entry and into userstackSteven Rostedt2009-09-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The userstack trace required the recording of the tgid entry.

* | tracing: report error in trace if we fail to swap latency bufferSteven Rostedt2009-09-051-1/+12

Instead of ignoring this, this patch makes the tracer report it if the last max latency failed due to preempting a current commit. The output of the latency tracer will look like this: # tracer: irqsoff # # irqsoff latency trace v1.1.5 on 2.6.31-rc5 # -------------------------------------------------------------------- # latency: 112 us, #1/1, CPU#1 | (M:preempt VP:0, KP:0, SP:0 HP:0 #P:4) # ----------------- # | task: -4281 (uid:0 nice:0 policy:0 rt_prio:0) # ----------------- # => started at: save_args # => ended at: __do_softirq # # # _------=> CPU# # / _-----=> irqs-off # | / _----=> need-resched # || / _---=> hardirq/softirq # ||| / _--=> preempt-depth # |||| / # ||||| delay # cmd pid ||||| time | caller # \ / ||||| \ | / bash-4281 1d.s6 265us : update_max_tr_single: Failed to swap buffers due to commit in progress Note the latency time and the functions that disabled the irqs or preemption will still be listed.

* | tracing: pass around ring buffer instead of tracerSteven Rostedt2009-09-051-50/+67
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The latency tracers (irqsoff and wakeup) can swap trace buffers on the fly. If an event is happening and has reserved data on one of the buffers, and the latency tracer swaps the global buffer with the max buffer, the result is that the event may commit the data to the wrong buffer. This patch changes the API to the trace recording to be recieve the buffer that was used to reserve a commit. Then this buffer can be passed in to the commit.

* | tracing: make tracing_reset safe for external useSteven Rostedt2009-09-051-2/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reseting the trace buffer without first disabling the buffer and waiting for any writers to complete, can corrupt the ring buffer. This patch makes the external version of tracing_reset safe from corruption by disabling the ring buffer and calling synchronize_sched. This version can no longer be called from interrupt context. But all those callers have been removed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
