| * | | | | tracing: make testing syscall events a separate configurationSteven Rostedt2009-09-141-0/+12

This adds a bit more time to kernel boot up and can affect development by slowing down the time it takes between reboots. This option makes the testing of the syscall events into a separate config, to still be able to test most of ftrace internals at boot up but not have to wait for all the syscall events to be tested. The syscall event testing only tests the enabling and disabling of the trace point, since the syscalls are not executed. What really needs to be done is to somehow have a userspace tool test the syscall tracepoints as well.

| * | | | | tracing: use the new trace_entries.h to create format filesSteven Rostedt2009-09-131-0/+1

It uses the new trace_entries.h file to automate the creation of the format files to ensure that they are always in sync with the actual structures. This is the same methodology used to create the format files for the TRACE_EVENT macro. This also updates the filter creation that was built on the creation of the format files.

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.

Trace engines can add new ftrace_event_call to ftrace on the fly. Each operator function of the call takes an ftrace_event_call data structure as an argument, because these functions may be shared among several ftrace_event_calls. Changes from v13: - Define remove_subsystem_dir() always (revirt a2ca5e03), because trace_remove_event_call() uses it. - Modify syscall tracer because of ftrace_event_call change.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The system enabling of events uses the same code as the set_event file. It passes in the name of the system to the parser and that will enable all the events that has that system as a name. The problem is that it will also enable events with the same name as the system. If you have system name foo, and system name bar, but within the system bar, there exists an event called foo. By setting the system name foo, you will also be enabling the event foo in the system bar. This is not an expected result. The solution is to pass in "foo:*", which will only enable the system foo and not events called foo.

That is, each directory in debugfs/tracing/events has an "enable" file. This file can enable or disable all events within the directory and below. # echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/events/enable will enable all events. # echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/events/sched/enable will enable all events in the sched subsystem. # echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/events/enable # echo 0 > /debugfs/tracing/events/irq/enable will enable all events, but then disable just the irq subsystem events.

* tracing: reset ring buffer when removing modules with eventsSteven Rostedt2009-05-071-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Li Zefan found that there's a race using the event ids of events and modules. When a module is loaded, an event id is incremented. We only have 16 bits for event ids (65536) and there is a possible (but highly unlikely) race that we could load and unload a module that registers events so many times that the event id counter overflows. When it overflows, it then restarts and goes looking for available ids. An id is available if it was added by a module and released. The race is if you have one module add an id, and then is removed. Another module loaded can use that same event id. But if the old module still had events in the ring buffer, the new module's call back would get bogus data. At best (and most likely) the output would just be garbage. But if the module for some reason used pointers (not recommended) then this could potentially crash. The safest thing to do is just reset the ring buffer if a module that registered events is removed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace the current event parser hack with a better one. Filters are no longer specified predicate by predicate, but all at once and can use parens and any of the following operators: numeric fields: ==, !=, <, <=, >, >= string fields: ==, != predicates can be combined with the logical operators: &&, || examples: "common_preempt_count > 4" > filter "((sig >= 10 && sig < 15) || sig == 17) && comm != bash" > filter If there was an error, the erroneous string along with an error message can be seen by looking at the filter e.g.: ((sig >= 10 && sig < 15) || dsig == 17) && comm != bash ^ parse_error: Field not found Currently the caret for an error always appears at the beginning of the filter; a real position should be used, but the error message should be useful even without it. To clear a filter, '0' can be written to the filter file. Filters can also be set or cleared for a complete subsystem by writing the same filter as would be written to an individual event to the filter file at the root of the subsytem. Note however, that if any event in the subsystem lacks a field specified in the filter being set, the set will fail and all filters in the subsytem are automatically cleared. This change from the previous version was made because using only the fields that happen to exist for a given event would most likely result in a meaningless filter. Because the logical operators are now implemented as predicates, the maximum number of predicates in a filter was increased from 8 to 16.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For proper module reference counting, the file_operations that modules use must have the "owner" field set to the module. Unfortunately, the trace events use share file_operations. The same file_operations are used by all both kernel core and all modules. This patch makes the modules allocate their own file_operations and copies the functions from the core kernel. This allows those file operations to be owned by the module. Care is taken to free this code on module unload. Thanks to Greg KH for reminding me that file_operations must be owned by the module to have reference counting take place.

* tracing: add size checks for exported ftrace internal structuresSteven Rostedt2009-04-241-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The events exported by TRACE_EVENT are automated and are guaranteed to be correct when used. The internal ftrace structures on the other hand are more manually exported. These require the ftrace maintainer to make sure they are up to date. This patch adds a size check to help flag when a type changes in an internal ftrace data structure, and the update needs to be reflected in the export. If a export is incorrect, then the only harm is that the user space tools will not know how to correctly read the internal structures of ftrace.
