2009-09-18tracing: Allocate the ftrace event profile buffer dynamicallyFrederic Weisbecker2-20/+138
Currently the trace event profile buffer is allocated in the stack. But this may be too much for the stack, as the events can have large statically defined field size and can also grow with dynamic arrays. Allocate two per cpu buffer for all profiled events. The first cpu buffer is used to host every non-nmi context traces. It is protected by disabling the interrupts while writing and committing the trace. The second buffer is reserved for nmi. So that there is no race between them and the first buffer. The whole write/commit section is rcu protected because we release these buffers while deactivating the last profiling trace event. v2: Move the buffers from trace_event to be global, as pointed by Steven Rostedt. v3: Fix the syscall events to handle the profiling buffer races by disabling interrupts, now that the buffers are globals.

2009-09-14PM / Hibernate / Memory hotplug: Always use for_each_populated_zone()Gerald Schaefer1-6/+6
Use for_each_populated_zone() instead of for_each_zone() in hibernation code. This fixes a bug on s390, where we allow both config options HIBERNATION and MEMORY_HOTPLUG, so that we also have a ZONE_MOVABLE here. We only allow hibernation if no memory hotplug operation was performed, so in fact both features can only be used exclusively, but this way we don't need 2 differently configured (distribution) kernels. If we have an unpopulated ZONE_MOVABLE, we allow hibernation but run into a BUG_ON() in memory_bm_test/set/clear_bit() because hibernation code iterates through all zones, not only the populated zones, in several places. For example, swsusp_free() does for_each_zone() and then checks for pfn_valid(), which is true even if the zone is not populated, resulting in a BUG_ON() later because the pfn cannot be found in the memory bitmap. Replacing all occurences of for_each_zone() in hibernation code with for_each_populated_zone() would fix this issue.

2009-09-14PM/Hibernate: Do not try to allocate too much memory too hard (rev. 2)Rafael J. Wysocki1-4/+39
We want to avoid attempting to free too much memory too hard during hibernation, so estimate the minimum size of the image to use as the lower limit for preallocating memory. The approach here is based on the (experimental) observation that we can't free more page frames than the sum of: * global_page_state(NR_SLAB_RECLAIMABLE) * global_page_state(NR_ACTIVE_ANON) * global_page_state(NR_INACTIVE_ANON) * global_page_state(NR_ACTIVE_FILE) * global_page_state(NR_INACTIVE_FILE) minus * global_page_state(NR_FILE_MAPPED) Namely, if this number is subtracted from the number of saveable pages in the system, we get a good estimate of the minimum reasonable size of a hibernation image.

2009-09-14PM/Hibernate: Do not release preallocated memory unnecessarily (rev. 2)Rafael J. Wysocki3-72/+147
Since the hibernation code is now going to use allocations of memory to make enough room for the image, it can also use the page frames allocated at this stage as image page frames. The low-level hibernation code needs to be rearranged for this purpose, but it allows us to avoid freeing a great number of pages and allocating these same pages once again later, so it generally is worth doing.

2009-09-14tracing: make testing syscall events a separate configurationSteven Rostedt2-0/+24
Parag noticed that the number of event tests has increased tremendously: grep "Testing event" dmesg.31rc9 |wc -l 100 grep "Testing event" dmesg.31git |wc -l 1172 This is due to the testing of every syscall event when ftrace self test is enabled. 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.

2009-09-14ring-buffer: typecast cmpxchg to fix PowerPC warningSteven Rostedt1-3/+3
The cmpxchg used by PowerPC does the following: ({ \ __typeof__(*(ptr)) _o_ = (o); \ __typeof__(*(ptr)) _n_ = (n); \ (__typeof__(*(ptr))) __cmpxchg((ptr), (unsigned long)_o_, \ (unsigned long)_n_, sizeof(*(ptr))); \ }) This does a type check of *ptr to both o and n. Unfortunately, the code in ring-buffer.c assigns longs to pointers and pointers to longs and causes a warning on PowerPC: ring_buffer.c: In function 'rb_head_page_set': ring_buffer.c:704: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast ring_buffer.c:704: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast ring_buffer.c: In function 'rb_head_page_replace': ring_buffer.c:797: warning: initialization makes integer from pointer without a cast This patch adds the typecasts inside cmpxchg to annotate that a long is being cast to a pointer and a pointer is being casted to a long and this removes the PowerPC warnings.

2009-09-12tracing: add filter event logic to special, mmiotrace and boot tracersSteven Rostedt3-5/+18
Now that the pluging tracers use macros to create the structures and automate the exporting of their formats to the format files, they also automatically get a filter file. This patch adds the code to implement the filter logic in the trace recordings. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-09-12tracing: remove trace_event_types.hSteven Rostedt1-178/+0
The macros in trace_entries.h have made the code in trace_event_types.h obsolete. The file is no longer used, so this patch removes it. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-09-12tracing: use the new trace_entries.h to create format filesSteven Rostedt3-118/+136
This patch changes the way the format files in debugfs/tracing/events/ftrace/*/format are created. 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. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-09-12tracing: show details of structures within the ftrace structuresSteven Rostedt2-7/+66
Some of the internal ftrace structures use structures within. The output of a field saying it is just a structure is useless for a format file. A binary reader of the ring buffer needs to know more about how the fields are broken up. This patch adds to the ftrace structure macros new fields to describe the structures inside a structure.

2009-09-12tracing: use macros to create internal ftrace entry ring buffer structuresSteven Rostedt2-133/+369
The entries used by ftrace internal code (plugins) currently have their formats manually exported to userspace. That is, the format files in debugfs/tracing/events/ftrace/*/format are currently created by hand. This is a maintenance nightmare, and can easily become out of sync with what is actually shown. This patch uses the methodology of the TRACE_EVENT macros to build the structures so that their formats can be automated and this will keep the structures in sync with what users can see. This patch only changes the way the structures are created. Further patches will build off of this to automate the format files. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-09-12tracing/profile: fix profile_disable vs module_unloadLi Zefan1-1/+4
If the correspoding module is unloaded before ftrace_profile_disable() is called, event->profile_disable() won't be called, which can cause oops: # insmod trace-events-sample.ko # perf record -f -a -e sample:foo_bar sleep 3 & # sleep 1 # rmmod trace_events_sample # insmod trace-events-sample.ko OOPS!

2009-09-12tracing: do not update tracing_max_latency when tracer is stoppedCarsten Emde4-4/+14
The state of the function pair tracing_stop()/tracing_start() is correctly considered when tracer data are updated. However, the global and externally accessible variable tracing_max_latency is always updated - even when tracing is stopped. The update should only occur, if tracing was not stopped.

2009-09-12tracing: remove unused local variables in tracer probe functionsCarsten Emde2-21/+1
When the nsecs_to_usecs() conversion in probe_wakeup_sched_switch() and check_critical_timing() was moved to a later stage in order to avoid unnecessary computing, it was overlooked to remove the original variables, assignments and comments..
