2018-08-10tracing: Fix synchronizing to event changes with ↵Steven Rostedt (VMware)1-2/+4
tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() Now that some trace events can be protected by srcu_read_lock(tracepoint_srcu), we need to make sure all locations that depend on this are also protected. There were many places that did a synchronize_sched() thinking that it was enough to protect againts access to trace events. This use to be the case, but now that we use SRCU for _rcuidle() trace events, they may not be protected by synchronize_sched(), as they may be called in paths that RCU is not watching for preempt disable.

2018-07-25tracing: Fix possible double free in event_enable_trigger_func()Steven Rostedt (VMware)1-1/+5
There was a case that triggered a double free in event_trigger_callback() due to the called reg() function freeing the trigger_data and then it getting freed again by the error return by the caller. The solution there was to up the trigger_data ref count. Code inspection found that event_enable_trigger_func() has the same issue, but is not as easy to trigger (requires harder to trigger failures). It needs to be solved slightly different as it needs more to clean up when the reg() function fails.

Then on return to the function that called register_snapshot_trigger(), as it sees it failed to register, it frees the trigger_data again and causes a double free. By calling event_trigger_init() on the trigger_data (which only ups the reference counter for it), and then event_trigger_free() afterward, the trigger_data would not get freed by the registering trigger function as it would only up and lower the ref count for it. If the register trigger function fails, then the event_trigger_free() called after it will free the trigger data normally.

2018-05-29tracing: Do not reference event data in post call triggersSteven Rostedt (VMware)1-4/+2
Trace event triggers can be called before or after the event has been committed. If it has been called after the commit, there's a possibility that the event no longer exists. Currently, the two post callers is the trigger to disable tracing (traceoff) and the one that will record a stack dump (stacktrace). Neither of them reference the trace event entry record, as that would lead to a race condition that could pass in corrupted data. To prevent any other users of the post data triggers from using the trace event record, pass in NULL to the post call trigger functions for the event record, as they should never need to use them in the first place. This does not fix any bug, but prevents bugs from happening by new post call trigger users.

2018-03-10tracing: Add variable reference handling to hist triggersTom Zanussi1-0/+6
Add the necessary infrastructure to allow the variables defined on one event to be referenced in another. This allows variables set by a previous event to be referenced and used in expressions combining the variable values saved by that previous event and the event fields of the current event. For example, here's how a latency can be calculated and saved into yet another variable named 'wakeup_lat': # echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:ts0=common_timestamp ... # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp-$ts0 ... In the first event, the event's timetamp is saved into the variable ts0. In the next line, ts0 is subtracted from the second event's timestamp to produce the latency. Further users of variable references will be described in subsequent patches, such as for instance how the 'wakeup_lat' variable above can be displayed in a latency histogram.

2016-09-23tracing: Call traceoff trigger after event is recordedMasami Hiramatsu1-0/+1
Call traceoff trigger after the event is recorded. Since current traceoff trigger is called before recording the event, we can not know what event stopped tracing. Typical usecase of traceoff/traceon trigger is tracing function calls and trace events between a pair of events. For example, trace function calls between syscall entry/exit. In that case, it is useful if we can see the return code of the target syscall.

2016-04-19tracing: Add support for named triggersTom Zanussi1-0/+143
Named triggers are sets of triggers that share a common set of trigger data. An example of functionality that could benefit from this type of capability would be a set of inlined probes that would each contribute event counts, for example, to a shared counter data structure. The first named trigger registered with a given name owns the common trigger data that the others subsequently registered with the same name will reference. The functions defined here allow users to add, delete, and find named triggers. It also adds functions to pause and unpause named triggers; since named triggers act upon common data, they should also be paused and unpaused as a group.

2016-04-19tracing: Add enable_hist/disable_hist triggersTom Zanussi1-31/+40
Similar to enable_event/disable_event triggers, these triggers enable and disable the aggregation of events into maps rather than enabling and disabling their writing into the trace buffer. They can be used to automatically start and stop hist triggers based on a matching filter condition. If there's a paused hist trigger on system:event, the following would start it when the filter condition was hit: # echo enable_hist:system:event [ if filter] > event/trigger And the following would disable a running system:event hist trigger: # echo disable_hist:system:event [ if filter] > event/trigger See Documentation/trace/events.txt for real examples.

2016-04-19tracing: Add 'hist' event trigger commandTom Zanussi1-0/+1
'hist' triggers allow users to continually aggregate trace events, which can then be viewed afterwards by simply reading a 'hist' file containing the aggregation in a human-readable format. The basic idea is very simple and boils down to a mechanism whereby trace events, rather than being exhaustively dumped in raw form and viewed directly, are automatically 'compressed' into meaningful tables completely defined by the user. This is done strictly via single-line command-line commands and without the aid of any kind of programming language or interpreter. A surprising number of typical use cases can be accomplished by users via this simple mechanism. In fact, a large number of the tasks that users typically do using the more complicated script-based tracing tools, at least during the initial stages of an investigation, can be accomplished by simply specifying a set of keys and values to be used in the creation of a hash table. The Linux kernel trace event subsystem happens to provide an extensive list of keys and values ready-made for such a purpose in the form of the event format files associated with each trace event. By simply consulting the format file for field names of interest and by plugging them into the hist trigger command, users can create an endless number of useful aggregations to help with investigating various properties of the system. See Documentation/trace/events.txt for examples. hist triggers are implemented on top of the existing event trigger infrastructure, and as such are consistent with the existing triggers from a user's perspective as well. The basic syntax follows the existing trigger syntax. Users start an aggregation by writing a 'hist' trigger to the event of interest's trigger file: # echo hist:keys=xxx [ if filter] > event/trigger Once a hist trigger has been set up, by default it continually aggregates every matching event into a hash table using the event key and a value field named 'hitcount'. To view the aggregation at any point in time, simply read the 'hist' file in the same directory as the 'trigger' file: # cat event/hist The detailed syntax provides additional options for user control, and is described exhaustively in Documentation/trace/events.txt and in the virtual tracing/README file in the tracing subsystem.

2015-11-25tracing: Update cond flag when enabling or disabling a triggerTom Zanussi1-4/+6
When a trigger is enabled, the cond flag should be set beforehand, otherwise a trigger that's expecting to process a trace record (e.g. one with post_trigger set) could be invoked without one. Likewise a trigger's cond flag should be reset after it's disabled, not before.

2014-04-08tracepoint: Use struct pointer instead of name hash for reg/unreg tracepointsMathieu Desnoyers1-1/+1
Register/unregister tracepoint probes with struct tracepoint pointer rather than tracepoint name. This change, which vastly simplifies tracepoint.c, has been proposed by Steven Rostedt. It also removes 8.8kB (mostly of text) to the vmlinux size. From this point on, the tracers need to pass a struct tracepoint pointer to probe register/unregister. A probe can now only be connected to a tracepoint that exists. Moreover, tracers are responsible for unregistering the probe before the module containing its associated tracepoint is unloaded. text data bss dec hex filename 10443444 4282528 10391552 25117524 17f4354 vmlinux.orig 10434930 4282848 10391552 25109330 17f2352 vmlinux Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1396992381-23785-2-git-send-email-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com CC: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> CC: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> CC: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> CC: Frank Ch.

2014-01-09tracing: Show available event triggers when no trigger is setSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+20
Currently there's no way to know what triggers exist on a kernel without looking at the source of the kernel or randomly trying out triggers. Instead of creating another file in the debugfs system, simply show what available triggers are there when cat'ing the trigger file when it has no events: [root /sys/kernel/debug/tracing]# cat events/sched/sched_switch/trigger # Available triggers: # traceon traceoff snapshot stacktrace enable_event disable_event This stays consistent with other debugfs files where meta data like this is always proceeded with a '#' at the start of the line so that tools can strip these out.

2014-01-02tracing: Add generic tracing_lseek() functionSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-1/+1
Trace event triggers added a lseek that uses the ftrace_filter_lseek() function. Unfortunately, when function tracing is not configured in that function is not defined and the kernel fails to build. This is the second time that function was added to a file ops and it broke the build due to requiring special config dependencies. Make a generic tracing_lseek() that all the tracing utilities may use. Also, modify the old ftrace_filter_lseek() to return 0 instead of 1 on WRONLY. Not sure why it was a 1 as that does not make sense. This also changes the old tracing_seek() to modify the file pos pointer on WRONLY as well.

2013-12-21tracing: Add and use generic set_trigger_filter() implementationTom Zanussi1-4/+166
Add a generic event_command.set_trigger_filter() op implementation and have the current set of trigger commands use it - this essentially gives them all support for filters. Syntactically, filters are supported by adding 'if <filter>' just after the command, in which case only events matching the filter will invoke the trigger. For example, to add a filter to an enable/disable_event command: echo 'enable_event:system:event if common_pid == 999' > \ .../othersys/otherevent/trigger The above command will only enable the system:event event if the common_pid field in the othersys:otherevent event is 999. As another example, to add a filter to a stacktrace command: echo 'stacktrace if common_pid == 999' > \ .../somesys/someevent/trigger The above command will only trigger a stacktrace if the common_pid field in the event is 999. The filter syntax is the same as that described in the 'Event filtering' section of Documentation/trace/events.txt. Because triggers can now use filters, the trigger-invoking logic needs to be moved in those cases - e.g. for ftrace_raw_event_calls, if a trigger has a filter associated with it, the trigger invocation now needs to happen after the { assign; } part of the call, in order for the trigger condition to be tested. There's still a SOFT_DISABLED-only check at the top of e.g. the ftrace_raw_events function, so when an event is soft disabled but not because of the presence of a trigger, the original SOFT_DISABLED behavior remains unchanged. There's also a bit of trickiness in that some triggers need to avoid being invoked while an event is currently in the process of being logged, since the trigger may itself log data into the trace buffer. Thus we make sure the current event is committed before invoking those triggers. To do that, we split the trigger invocation in two - the first part (event_triggers_call()) checks the filter using the current trace record; if a command has the post_trigger flag set, it sets a bit for itself in the return value, otherwise it directly invoks the trigger. Once all commands have been either invoked or set their return flag, event_triggers_call() returns. The current record is then either committed or discarded; if any commands have deferred their triggers, those commands are finally invoked following the close of the current event by event_triggers_post_call(). To simplify the above and make it more efficient, the TRIGGER_COND bit is introduced, which is set only if a soft-disabled trigger needs to use the log record for filter testing or needs to wait until the current log record is closed. The syscall event invocation code is also changed in analogous ways. Because event triggers need to be able to create and free filters, this also adds a couple external wrappers for the existing create_filter and free_filter functions, which are too generic to be made extern functions themselves.

2013-12-20tracing: Add basic event trigger frameworkTom Zanussi1-0/+278
Add a 'trigger' file for each trace event, enabling 'trace event triggers' to be set for trace events. 'trace event triggers' are patterned after the existing 'ftrace function triggers' implementation except that triggers are written to per-event 'trigger' files instead of to a single file such as the 'set_ftrace_filter' used for ftrace function triggers. The implementation is meant to be entirely separate from ftrace function triggers, in order to keep the respective implementations relatively simple and to allow them to diverge. The event trigger functionality is built on top of SOFT_DISABLE functionality. It adds a TRIGGER_MODE bit to the ftrace_event_file flags which is checked when any trace event fires. Triggers set for a particular event need to be checked regardless of whether that event is actually enabled or not - getting an event to fire even if it's not enabled is what's already implemented by SOFT_DISABLE mode, so trigger mode directly reuses that. Event trigger essentially inherit the soft disable logic in __ftrace_event_enable_disable() while adding a bit of logic and trigger reference counting via tm_ref on top of that in a new trace_event_trigger_enable_disable() function. Because the base __ftrace_event_enable_disable() code now needs to be invoked from outside trace_events.c, a wrapper is also added for those usages. The triggers for an event are actually invoked via a new function, event_triggers_call(), and code is also added to invoke them for ftrace_raw_event calls as well as syscall events. The main part of the patch creates a new trace_events_trigger.c file to contain the trace event triggers implementation. The standard open, read, and release file operations are implemented here. The open() implementation sets up for the various open modes of the 'trigger' file. It creates and attaches the trigger iterator and sets up the command parser. If opened for reading set up the trigger seq_ops. The read() implementation parses the event trigger written to the 'trigger' file, looks up the trigger command, and passes it along to that event_command's func() implementation for command-specific processing. The release() implementation does whatever cleanup is needed to release the 'trigger' file, like releasing the parser and trigger iterator, etc. A couple of functions for event command registration and unregistration are added, along with a list to add them to and a mutex to protect them, as well as an (initially empty) registration function to add the set of commands that will be added by future commits, and call to it from the trace event initialization code. also added are a couple trigger-specific data structures needed for these implementations such as a trigger iterator and a struct for trigger-specific data. A couple structs consisting mostly of function meant to be implemented in command-specific ways, event_command and event_trigger_ops, are used by the generic event trigger command implementations. They're being put into trace.h alongside the other trace_event data structures and functions, in the expectation that they'll be needed in several trace_event-related files such as trace_events_trigger.c and trace_events.c. The event_command.func() function is meant to be called by the trigger parsing code in order to add a trigger instance to the corresponding event. It essentially coordinates adding a live trigger instance to the event, and arming the triggering the event. Every event_command func() implementation essentially does the same thing for any command: - choose ops - use the value of param to choose either a number or count version of event_trigger_ops specific to the command - do the register or unregister of those ops - associate a filter, if specified, with the triggering event The reg() and unreg() ops allow command-specific implementations for event_trigger_op registration and unregistration, and the get_trigger_ops() op allows command-specific event_trigger_ops selection to be parameterized. When a trigger instance is added, the reg() op essentially adds that trigger to the triggering event and arms it, while unreg() does the opposite. The set_filter() function is used to associate a filter with the trigger - if the command doesn't specify a set_filter() implementation, the command will ignore filters. Each command has an associated trigger_type, which serves double duty, both as a unique identifier for the command as well as a value that can be used for setting a trigger mode bit during trigger invocation. The signature of func() adds a pointer to the event_command struct, used to invoke those functions, along with a command_data param that can be passed to the reg/unreg functions. This allows func() implementations to use command-specific blobs and supports code re-use. The event_trigger_ops.func() command corrsponds to the trigger 'probe' function that gets called when the triggering event is actually invoked. The other functions are used to list the trigger when needed, along with a couple mundane book-keeping functions. This also moves event_file_data() into trace.h so it can be used outside of trace_events.c.
