[
version 6 of mcount / trace patches:
changes include:
Ported to lastest git 99f1c97dbdb30e958edfd1ced0ae43df62504e07
Added the runqueue_is_locked schedule api to let others (printk) know if the runqueue is locked and if it is safe to call wake_up on klogd.
Added event_trace! This records various events like interrupts, timer events, page fault events, some scheduler stuff. This is also used to help show a little more information to the other latency tracers. It is a lot less overhead than what mcount gives us (without as much data).
Also included in this series the histograms. When configured in the interrupts/preemption off and wakeup timings will be recorded into histograms found in /debugfs/tracing/latency_hist/ This code is from MontaVista contributions into the RT kernel, with some cleanups and porting effort by myself.

All released version of these patches can be found at:
http://people.redhat.com/srostedt/tracing/
The following patch series brings to vanilla Linux a bit of the RT kernel trace facility. This incorporates the "-pg" profiling option of gcc that will call the "mcount" function for all functions called in the kernel.
Note: I did investigate using -finstrument-functions but that adds a call to both start and end of a function. Using mcount only does the beginning of the function. mcount alone adds ~13% overhead. The -finstrument-functions added ~19%. Also it caused me to do tricks with inline, because it adds the function calls to inline functions as well.
This patch series implements the code for x86 (32 and 64 bit), but other archs can easily be implemented as well (note: ARM and PPC are already implemented in -rt)
Some Background:
----------------
A while back, Ingo Molnar and William Lee Irwin III created a latency tracer to find problem latency areas in the kernel for the RT patch. This tracer became a very integral part of the RT kernel in solving where latency hot spots were. One of the features that the latency tracer added was a function trace. This function tracer would record all functions that were called (implemented by the gcc "-pg" option) and would show what was called when interrupts or preemption was turned off.
This feature is also very helpful in normal debugging. So it's been talked about taking bits and pieces from the RT latency tracer and bring them to LKML. But no one had the time to do it.
Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo took a crack at it. He pulled out the mcount as well as part of the tracing code and made it generic from the point of the tracing code. I'm not sure why this stopped. Probably because Arnaldo is a very busy man, and his efforts had to be utilized elsewhere.
While I still maintain my own Logdev utility:
http://rostedt.homelinux.com/logdev
I came across a need to do the mcount with logdev too. I was successful but found that it became very dependent on a lot of code. One thing that I liked about my logdev utility was that it was very non-intrusive, and has been easy to port from the Linux 2.0 days. I did not want to burden the logdev patch with the intrusiveness of mcount (not really that intrusive, it just needs to add a "notrace" annotation to functions in the kernel that will cause more conflicts in applying patches for me).
Being close to the holidays, I grabbed Arnaldos old patches and started massaging them into something that could be useful for logdev, and what I found out (and talking this over with Arnaldo too) that this can be much more useful for others as well.
The main thing I changed, was that I made the mcount function itself generic, and not the dependency on the tracing code. That is I added
register_mcount_function()
andclear_mcount_function()
So when ever mcount is enabled and a function is registered that function is called for all functions in the kernel that is not labeled with the "notrace" annotation.
The Simple Tracer:
------------------
To show the power of this I also massaged the tracer code that Arnaldo pulled from the RT patch and made it be a nice example of what can be done with this.
The function that is registered to mcount has the prototype:
void func(unsigned long ip, unsigned long parent_ip);
The ip is the address of the function and parent_ip is the address of the parent function that called it.
The x86_64 version has the assembly call the registered function directly to save having to do a double function call.
To enable mcount, a sysctl is added:
/proc/sys/kernel/mcount_enabled
Once mcount is enabled, when a function is registed, it will be called by all functions. The tracer in this patch series shows how this is done. It adds a directory in the debugfs, called mctracer. With a ctrl file that will allow the user have the tracer register its function. Note, the order of enabling mcount and registering a function is not important, but both must be done to initiate the tracing. That is, you can disable tracing by either disabling mcount or by clearing the registered function.
Only one function may be registered at a time. If another function is registered, it will simply override what ever was there previously.
Here's a simple example of the tracer output:
CPU 2: hackbench:11867 preempt_schedule+0xc/0x84 <-- avc_has_perm_noaudit+0x45d/0x52c CPU 1: hackbench:12052 selinux_file_permission+0x10/0x11c <-- security_file_permission+0x16/0x18 CPU 3: hackbench:12017 update_curr+0xe/0x8b <-- put_prev_task_fair+0x24/0x4c
CPU 2: hackbench:11867 avc_audit+0x16/0x9e3 <-- avc_has_perm+0x51/0x63
CPU 0: hackbench:12019 socket_has_perm+0x16/0x7c <-- selinux_socket_sendmsg+0x27/0x3e CPU 1: hackbench:12052 file_has_perm+0x16/0xbb <-- selinux_file_permission+0x104/0x11c
This is formated like:
CPU <CPU#>: <task-comm>:<task-pid> <function> <-- <parent-function>
Latency Tracer Format:
----------------------
The format used by the RT patch is a bit more complex. It is designed to record a lot of information quickly and dump out a lot too.
There's two versions of the format. Verbose and non-vebose.
verbose:

---------
Although enabling and disabling mcount is done through the sysctl:
/proc/sys/kernel/mcount_enabled
The rest of the tracing uses debugfs.
/debugfs/tracing
Here's the available files:
available_tracers
Lists the tracers that are compiled into the kernel and can be echoed into current_tracer
current_tracer
Shows the current tracer that is registered. On bootup this is blank. To set a new tracer, simply echo into this file the name found in available_tracers.
e.g.
echo wakeup > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
trace_ctrl
echo 1 to enable the current tracer.
echo 0 to disable it.
Note, the function trace also needs mcount_enabled set, otherwise it will not record.
latency_trace
Outputs the current trace in latency_trace format.
tracing_thresh
echo a number (in usecs) into this to record all traces that are greater than threshold. Only matters for those traces that use a max threshold (preemptoff irqsoff and wakeup)
iter_ctrl
echo "symonly" to not show the instruction pointers in the trace echo "nosymonly" to disable symonly.
echo "verbose" for verbose output from latency format. echo "noverbose" to disable verbose ouput.
cat iter_ctrl to see the current settings.
tracing_max_latency
Holds the current max critical latency. echo 0 to reset and start tracing.
Only holds for those tracers that use a max setting. (preemptoff irqsoff and wakeup)
trace
simple output format of the current trace.
Trace tool:
-----------
The trace_cmd.c found at
http://people.redhat.com/srostedt/tracing/trace-cmd.c
This tool will set up the tracer and allow you to run a program and trace it. (must be root)
e.g.
# ./trace-cmd -f echo hi
# cat /debug/tracing/latency_trace | grep echo | head
echo-4240 1d..1 1076us : ret_from_fork+0x6/0x1c (schedule_tail+0x9/0x5e)
echo-4240 1d..1 1077us : schedule_tail+0x1e/0x5e (finish_task_switch+0xb/0x61)
echo-4240 1d..1 1078us : finish_task_switch+0x24/0x61 (_spin_unlock_irq+0x8/0x40)
echo-4240 1...1 1079us : _spin_unlock_irq+0x27/0x40 (sub_preempt_count+0xd/0x104)
echo-4240 1...1 1080us+: sub_preempt_count+0x8d/0x104 (in_lock_functions+0x8/0x2c)
echo-4240 1d... 1082us : error_code+0x72/0x78 (do_page_fault+0xe/0x7c0)
echo-4240 1d... 1083us : do_page_fault+0x35b/0x7c0 (add_preempt_count+0xc/0x10f)
echo-4240 1d..1 1085us : add_preempt_count+0x53/0x10f (in_lock_functions+0x8/0x2c)
echo-4240 1d..1 1086us : do_page_fault+0x38f/0x7c0 (sub_preempt_count+0xd/0x104)
echo-4240 1d..1 1087us : sub_preempt_count+0x8d/0x104 (in_lock_functions+0x8/0x2c)The available switches are:
-s - context switch tracing
-p - preemption off tracing
-i - interrupts off tracing
-b - both interrupts off and preemption off tracing -w - wakeup timings
-e - event tracing
-f - function trace
Only -f (function trace) may be enabled with the other tracers, since most the other tracers also have a function trace version if mcount is enabled (yes -f will enable mcount).
Overhead:
---------
Note that having mcount compiled in seems to show a little overhead.
Here's 3 runs of hackbench 50 without the patches:
Time: 2.137
Time: 2.283
Time: 2.245
Avg: 2.221
and here's 3 runs with the patches (without tracing on):
Time: 2.738
Time: 2.469
Time: 2.388
Avg: 2.531
So it is a 13% overhead when enabled (according to hackbench).
But full tracing can cause a bit more problems:
# hackbench 50 Time: 113.350
113.350!!!!!
But this is tracing *every* function call!
Future:
-------
The way the mcount hook is done here, other utilities can easily add their own functions. Just care needs to be made not to call anything that is not marked with notrace, or you will crash the box with recursion. But even the simple tracer adds a "disabled" feature so in case it happens to call something that is not marked with notrace, it is a safety net not to kill the box.
I was originally going to use the relay system to record the data, but that had a chance of calling functions not marked with notrace. But, if for example LTTng wanted to use this, it could disable tracing on a CPU when doing the calls, and this will protect from recusion.
SystemTap:
----------
One thing that Arnaldo and I discussed last year was using systemtap to add hooks into the kernel to start and stop tracing. kprobes is too heavy to do on all funtion calls, but it would be perfect to add to non hot paths to start the tracer and stop the tracer.
So when debugging the kernel, instead of recompiling with printks or other markers, you could simply use systemtap to place a trace start and stop locations and trace the problem areas to see what is happening.
These are just some of the ideas we have with this. And we are sure others could come up with more.
These patches are for the underlining work. We'll see what happens next.

reviewerPATCH 1/23 printk - dont wakeup klogd with interrupts disabled
[ This patch is added to the series since the wakeup timings trace
may lockup without it. ]
I thought that one could place a printk anywhere without worrying. But it seems that it is not wise to place a printk where the runqueue lock is held.
I just spent two hours debugging why some of my code was locking up, to find that the lockup was caused by some debugging printk's that I had in the scheduler. The printk's were only in rare paths so they shouldn't be too much of a problem, but after I hit the printk the system locked up.
Thinking that it was locking up on my code I went looking down the wrong path. I finally found (after examining an NMI dump) that the lockup happened because printk was trying to wakeup the klogd daemon, which caused a deadlock when the try_to_wakeup code tries to grab the runqueue lock.
This patch adds a runqueue_is_locked interface in sched.c for other files to see if the current runqueue lock is held. This is used in printk to determine whether it is safe or not to wakeup the klogd.
And with this patch, my code ran fine ;-)

Well, if cpu1 holds the lock, and cpu0 wants it, there should only be contention, I'm not seeing how this would deadlock.
The deadlock problem was when cpu0 was already holding the rq->lock and wants to take it again.

Correct. The only race that this patch has is that there's a slight chance you wont wake up the klogd when you could.

But this is rare and pretty harmless. But it can be trivally fixed and should be. But I'll rename the API to

This way we know exactly why it returns what it returns.

Hmm, I'm thinking too much about RT where we can see who owns the locks. It isn't trivial to see if current has the lock without putting in more logic into the taking of the rq lock, which is unneeded overhead.
I think the patch as is is good enough then. The worst that can happen is that we don't wake up klogd, and that should not be too often.

Right, while this might appear to be sound, I hate to point out that we only want to exclude it when current holds the rq->lock. This could lead to spuriously missing klogd wakeups because other cpus hold our rq->lock.
Now, is this klogd thing only relevant for dumping stuff into the log, or also for writing stuff out to the serial line?

Hmm, good point. Not hard to solve ;-)

It's only responsible for the log (userland stuff).

reviewerPATCH 2/23 Add basic support for gcc profiler instrumentation
In reply to Steven RostedtIf CONFIG_MCOUNT is selected and /proc/sys/kernel/mcount_enabled is set to a non-zero value the mcount routine will be called everytime we enter a kernel function that is not marked with the "notrace" attribute.
The mcount routine will then call a registered function if a function happens to be registered.
[This code has been highly hacked by Steven Rostedt, so don't
blame Arnaldo for all of this ;-) ]
Update:
It is now possible to register more than one mcount function. If only one mcount function is registered, that will be the function that mcount calls directly. If more than one function is registered, then mcount will call a function that will loop through the functions to call.

reviewerPATCH 8/23 initialize the clock source to jiffies clock.
In reply to Steven RostedtThe latency tracer can call clocksource_read very early in bootup and before the clock source variable has been initialized. This results in a crash at boot up (even before earlyprintk is initialized). Since the clock->read variable points to NULL.
This patch simply initializes the clock to use clocksource_jiffies, so that any early user of clocksource_read will not crash.

In reply to Steven RostedtThe latency tracer needs a way to get an accurate time without grabbing any locks. Locks themselves might call the latency tracer and cause at best a slow down.

reviewerPATCH 10/23 add notrace annotations to timing events
In reply to Steven RostedtThis patch adds notrace annotations to timer functions that will be used by tracing. This helps speed things up and also keeps the ugliness of printing these functions down.

reviewerPATCH 11/23 mcount based trace in the form of a header file library
In reply to Steven RostedtThis is a simple trace that uses the mcount infrastructure. It is designed to be fast and small, and easy to use. It is useful to record things that happen over a very short period of time, and not to analyze the system in general.
An interface is added to the debugfs
/debugfs/tracing/
This patch adds the following files:
available_tracers
list of available tracers. Currently only "function" is available.
current_tracer
The trace that is currently active. Empty on start up. To switch to a tracer simply echo one of the tracers that are listed in available_tracers:
echo function > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
trace_ctrl
echoing "1" into this file starts the mcount function tracing
(if sysctl kernel.mcount_enabled=1)
echoing "0" turns it off.
latency_trace
This file is readonly and holds the result of the trace.
trace
This file outputs a easier to read version of the trace.
iter_ctrl
Controls the way the output of traces look.
So far there's two controls:
echoing in "symonly" will only show the kallsyms variables
without the addresses (if kallsyms was configured)
echoing in "verbose" will change the output to show
a lot more data, but not very easy to understand by humans.
echoing in "nosymonly" turns off symonly. echoing in "noverbose" turns off verbose.
The output of the function_trace file is as follows
"echo noverbose > /debugfs/tracing/iter_ctrl"

reviewerPATCH 15/23 Generic command line storage
In reply to Steven RostedtSaving the comm of tasks for each trace is very expensive. This patch includes in the context switch hook, a way to store the last 100 command lines of tasks. This table is examined when a trace is to be printed.
Note: The comm may be destroyed if other traces are performed. Later (TBD) patches may simply store this information in the trace itself.

reviewerPATCH 18/23 mcount tracer for wakeup latency timings.
In reply to Steven RostedtThis patch adds hooks to trace the wake up latency of the highest priority waking task.
"wakeup" is added to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers
Also added to /debugfs/tracing
tracing_max_latency
holds the current max latency for the wakeup
wakeup_thresh
if set to other than zero, a log will be recorded for every wakeup that takes longer than the number entered in here (usecs for all counters) (deletes previous trace)
Examples:
(with mcount_enabled = 0)

reviewerPATCH 19/23 Trace irq disabled critical timings
In reply to Steven RostedtThis patch adds latency tracing for critical timings (how long interrupts are disabled for).
"irqsoff" is added to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers
Note:
tracing_max_latency
also holds the max latency for irqsoff (in usecs).
(default to large number so one must start latency tracing)
tracing_thresh
threshold (in usecs) to always print out if irqs off is detected to be longer than stated here. If irq_thresh is non-zero, then max_irq_latency is ignored.
Here's an example of a trace with mcount_enabled = 0

reviewerPATCH 20/23 trace preempt off critical timings
In reply to Steven RostedtAdd preempt off timings. A lot of kernel core code is taken from the RT patch latency trace that was written by Ingo Molnar.
This adds "preemptoff" and "preemptirqsoff" to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers
Now instead of just tracing irqs off, preemption off can be selected to be recorded.
When this is selected, it shares the same files as irqs off timings. One can either trace preemption off, irqs off, or one or the other off.
By echoing "preemptoff" into /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer, recording of preempt off only is performed. "irqsoff" will only record the time irqs are disabled, but "preemptirqsoff" will take the total time irqs or preemption are disabled. Runtime switching of these options is now supported by simpling echoing in the appropriate trace name into /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer.

reviewerPATCH 22/23 Add event tracer.
In reply to Steven RostedtThis patch adds a event trace that hooks into various events in the kernel. Although it can be used separately, it is mainly to help other traces (wakeup and preempt off) with seeing various events in the traces without having to enable the heavy mcount hooks.
Here's an example:
_------=> CPU#
/ _-----=> irqs-off
| / _----=> need-resched
|| / _---=> hardirq/softirq
||| / _--=> preempt-depth
|||| /
||||| delay
cmd pid ||||| time | caller
\ / ||||| \ | /

reviewerPATCH 23/23 Critical latency timings histogram
In reply to Steven RostedtThis patch adds hooks into the latency tracer to give us histograms of interrupts off, preemption off and wakeup timings.
This code was based off of work done by Yi Yang <[email protected]>
But heavily modified to work with the new tracer, and some clean ups by Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>

Ok, so you are adding new userland interface; I guess you should also document it in Documentation/?

Documentation/?
I was waiting for someone to ask ;-)
Yes, I'm getting a document ready for the Documentation directory. I was just making sure the interface was fine befor publishing the doc.
Actually, the patches themselves have been showing the API in the prologue, and that's what I'll be using for the doc. All is done except for the new histograms. The format for those was taken directly from the -rt patch, and I still need to document them, but I've been hesitent, because I want to clean up the histogram code a bit more.
