2015-04-15mm, selftests: test return value of munmap for MAP_HUGETLB memoryDavid Rientjes3-4/+14
When MAP_HUGETLB memory is unmapped, the length must be hugepage aligned, otherwise it fails with -EINVAL. All tests currently behave correctly, but it's better to explcitly test the return value for completeness and document the requirement, especially if users copy map_hugetlb.c as a sample implementation.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: 1) Add BQL support to via-rhine, from Tino Reichardt. 2) Integrate SWITCHDEV layer support into the DSA layer, so DSA drivers can support hw switch offloading. From Floria Fainelli. 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave, from Madhu Challa. 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck. 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel Borkmann. 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25, rose, etc. And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to implement MPLS support. All from Eric Biederman. 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman. 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck. 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation, from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty table, we expand the table much more sanely. 10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric Biederman. 11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov. 12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be established in the main hash table. Much less false sharing since hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed underneath. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk. 14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard Cochran. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1816 commits) fm10k: Bump driver version to 0.15.2 fm10k: corrected VF multicast update fm10k: mbx_update_max_size does not drop all oversized messages fm10k: reset head instead of calling update_max_size fm10k: renamed mbx_tx_dropped to mbx_tx_oversized fm10k: update xcast mode before synchronizing multicast addresses fm10k: start service timer on probe fm10k: fix function header comment fm10k: comment next_vf_mbx flow fm10k: don't handle mailbox events in iov_event path and always process mailbox fm10k: use separate workqueue for fm10k driver fm10k: Set PF queues to unlimited bandwidth during virtualization fm10k: expose tx_timeout_count as an ethtool stat fm10k: only increment tx_timeout_count in Tx hang path fm10k: remove extraneous "Reset interface" message fm10k: separate PF only stats so that VF does not display them fm10k: use hw->mac.max_queues for stats fm10k: only show actual queues, not the maximum in hardware fm10k: allow creation of VLAN on default vid fm10k: fix unused warnings ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar: "Core kernel changes: - One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed by the kernel) to kprobes. This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively. (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might allow unprivileged use as well.) (Alexei Starovoitov) - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock sources for event timestamps traced via perf. This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated events with external events that were measured with different clocks: - cluster wide profiling - for system wide tracing with user-space events, - JIT profiling events etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al. (Peter Zijlstra) Hardware enablement kernel changes: - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs. The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous. This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result. A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU. More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well - will probably be ready by 4.2. (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra) - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads. These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged as a cgroup extension.) (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P Waskiewicz Jr) - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option: perf record --call-graph lbr perf report or: perf top --call-graph lbr This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf based unwinding, but has some limitations: - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. (Yan, Zheng) - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and event table fixes for earlier models. (Andi Kleen) - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and is transparent. (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian) The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to the tooling changes outlined above: User visible changes affecting all tools: - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa) - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song) - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa) - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song) - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) User visible changes in individual tools: 'perf data': New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa, Sebastian Siewior) 'perf diff': Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern) 'perf list': Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song) Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song) 'perf kmem': Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa) Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim) Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim) Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim) 'perf probe': Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu) Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu) Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu) 'perf record': Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra) Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen) 'perf sched': Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song) 'perf report' and 'perf top': Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern) Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) 'perf stat': Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose) Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen) 'perf trace': Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Some clean ups and small fixes, but the biggest change is the addition of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints. Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called __print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that user space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data and express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT() macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values by the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the format file, and this makes it useless for user space tools. The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings in the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is shown to user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently has this in its format file: __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" }, { TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" }, { TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" }, { TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" }) After adding: TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN); Its format file will contain this: __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { 0, "flush on task switch" }, { 1, "remote shootdown" }, { 2, "local shootdown" }, { 3, "local mm shootdown" })" * tag 'trace-v4.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (27 commits) tracing: Add enum_map file to show enums that have been mapped writeback: Export enums used by tracepoint to user space v4l: Export enums used by tracepoints to user space SUNRPC: Export enums in tracepoints to user space mm: tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to user space irq/tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to user space f2fs: Export the enums in the tracepoints to userspace net/9p/tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to userspace x86/tlb/trace: Export enums in used by tlb_flush tracepoint tracing/samples: Update the trace-event-sample.h with TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() tracing: Allow for modules to convert their enums to values tracing: Add TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro to map enums to their values tracing: Update trace-event-sample with TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR documentation tracing: Give system name a pointer brcmsmac: Move each system tracepoints to their own header iwlwifi: Move each system tracepoints to their own header mac80211: Move message tracepoints to their own header tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to xhci-hcd tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to kvm-s390 tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to intel-sst ...

2015-04-10perf buildid-list: Fix segfault when show DSOs with hitsHe Kuang3-9/+4
commit: f3b623b8490a ("perf tools: Reference count struct thread") appends every thread->node to dead_threads in machine__remove_thread() and list_del_init() this node in thread__put(). perf_event__exit_del_thread() releases thread wihout using machine__remove_thread(), and causes a NULL pointer crash when list_del_init(&thread->node) is called.

2015-04-08perf sched replay: Fix the EMFILE error caused by the limitation of the ↵Yunlong Song1-5/+26
maximum open files The soft maximum number of open files for a calling process is 1024, which is defined as INR_OPEN_CUR in include/uapi/linux/fs.h, and the hard maximum number of open files for a calling process is 4096, which is defined as INR_OPEN_MAX in include/uapi/linux/fs.h. Both INR_OPEN_CUR and INR_OPEN_MAX are used to limit the value of RLIMIT_NOFILE in include/asm-generic/resource.h. And the soft maximum number finally decides the limitation of the maximum files which are allowed to be opened. That is to say a process can use at most 1024 file descriptors for its o pened files, or an EMFILE error will happen. This error can be fixed by increasing the soft maximum number, under the constraint that the soft maximum number can not exceed the hard maximum number, or both soft and hard maximum number should be increased simultaneously with privilege. For perf sched replay, it uses sys_perf_event_open to create the file descriptor for each of the tasks in order to handle information of perf events. That is to say each task needs a unique file descriptor. In x86_64, there may be over 1024 or 4096 tasks correspoinding to the record in perf.data, which causes that no enough file descriptors can be used. As a result, EMFILE error happens and stops the replay process. To solve this problem, we adaptively increase the soft and hard maximum number of open files with a '-f' option. Example: Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max 163840 $ cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max 6815744 $ ulimit -Sn 1024 $ ulimit -Hn 4096 Before this patch: $ perf sched replay ... task 1549 ( :163132: 163132), nr_events: 1 task 1550 ( :163540: 163540), nr_events: 1 task 1551 ( <unknown>: 0), nr_events: 10 Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with -1 (Too many open files) After this patch: $ perf sched replay ... task 1549 ( :163132: 163132), nr_events: 1 task 1550 ( :163540: 163540), nr_events: 1 task 1551 ( <unknown>: 0), nr_events: 10 Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with -1 (Too many open files) Have a try with -f option $ perf sched replay -f ... task 1549 ( :163132: 163132), nr_events: 1 task 1550 ( :163540: 163540), nr_events: 1 task 1551 ( <unknown>: 0), nr_events: 10 ------------------------------------------------------------ #1 : 54.401, ravg: 54.40, cpu: 3285.21 / 3285.21 #2 : 199.548, ravg: 68.92, cpu: 4999.65 / 3456.66 #3 : 170.483, ravg: 79.07, cpu: 1349.94 / 3245.99 #4 : 192.034, ravg: 90.37, cpu: 1322.88 / 3053.67 #5 : 182.929, ravg: 99.62, cpu: 1406.51 / 2888.96 #6 : 152.974, ravg: 104.96, cpu: 1167.54 / 2716.82 #7 : 155.579, ravg: 110.02, cpu: 2992.53 / 2744.39 #8 : 130.557, ravg: 112.08, cpu: 1126.43 / 2582.59 #9 : 138.520, ravg: 114.72, cpu: 1253.22 / 2449.65 #10 : 134.328, ravg: 116.68, cpu: 1587.95 / 2363.48 Signed-off-by: Yunlong Song <yunlong.song@huawei.com> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1427809596-29559-8-git-send-email-yunlong.song@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
2015-04-08perf sched replay: Handle the dead halt of sem_wait when create_tasks() ↵Yunlong Song1-1/+3
fails for any task Since there is sem_wait for each task in the wait_for_tasks(), e.g. sem_wait(&task->work_done_sem). The sem_wait can continue only when work_done_sem is greater than 0, or it will be blocked. For perf sched replay, one task may sem_post the work_done_sem of another task, which causes the work_done_sem of that task processed in a reasonable sequence, e.g. sem_post, sem_wait, sem_wait, sem_post... This sequence simulates the sched process of the running tasks at the time when perf sched record runs. As a result, all the tasks are required and their threads must be successfully created. If any one (task A) of the tasks fails to create its thread, then another task (task B), whose work_done_sem needs sem_post from that failed task A, may likely block itself due to seg_wait. And this is a dead halt, since task B's thread_func cannot continue at all. To solve this problem, perf sched replay should exit once any task fails to create its thread. Example: Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores Before this patch: $ perf sched replay ... Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with -1 (Too many open files) ------------------------------------------------------------ <- dead halt After this patch: $ perf sched replay ... task 1551 ( <unknown>: 0), nr_events: 10 Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with -1 (Too many open files) $ As shown above, perf sched replay finishes the process after printing an error message and does not block itself.

2015-04-08perf sched replay: Fix the segmentation fault problem caused by pr_err in ↵Yunlong Song1-2/+3
threads The pr_err in self_open_counters() prints error message to stderr. Unlike stdout, stderr uses memory buffer on the stack of each calling process. The pr_err in self_open_counters() works in a thread called thread_func created in function create_tasks, which concurrently creates sched->nr_tasks threads. If the error happens and pr_err prints the error message in each of these threads, the stack size of the perf process (default is 8192 kbytes) will quickly run out and the segmentation fault will happen then. To solve this problem, pr_err with self_open_counters() should be moved from newly created threads to the old main thread of the perf process. Then the pr_err can work in a stable situation without the strange segmentation fault problem. Example: Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores Before this patch: $ perf sched replay ... task 1549 ( :163132: 163132), nr_events: 1 task 1550 ( :163540: 163540), nr_events: 1 task 1551 ( <unknown>: 0), nr_events: 10 Segmentation fault After this patch: $ perf sched replay ... task 1549 ( :163132: 163132), nr_events: 1 task 1550 ( :163540: 163540), nr_events: 1 task 1551 ( <unknown>: 0), nr_events: 10 ...

the different pid_max configurations Although the memory of pid_to_task can be allocated via calloc according to the value of /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max, it cannot handle the case when pid_max is changed after 'perf sched record' has created its perf.data.

2015-04-08perf sched replay: Alloc the memory of pid_to_task dynamically to adapt to ↵Yunlong Song1-2/+9
the unexpected change of pid_max The current memory allocation of struct task_desc *pid_to_task[MAX_PID] is in a permanent and preset way, and it has two problems: Problem 1: If the pid_max, which is the max number of pids in the system, is much smaller than MAX_PID (1024*1000), then it causes a waste of stack memory. This may happen in the case where the number of cpu cores is much smaller than 1000. Problem 2: If the pid_max is changed from the default value to a value larger than MAX_PID, then it will cause assertion failure problem. The maximum value of pid_max can be set to pid_max_max (see pidmap_init defined in kernel/pid.c), which equals to PID_MAX_LIMIT. In x86_64, PID_MAX_LIMIT is 4*1024*1024 (defined in include/linux/threads.h). This value is much larger than MAX_PID, and will take up 32768 Kbytes (4*1024*1024*8/1024) for memory allocation of pid_to_task, which is much larger than the default 8192 Kbytes of the stack size of calling process. Due to these two problems, we use calloc to allocate the memory of pid_to_task dynamically. Example: Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max 163840 $ echo 1025000 > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max 1025000 Run some applications until the pid of some process is greater than the value of MAX_PID (1024*1000).

2015-04-08perf sched replay: Increase the MAX_PID value to fix assertion failure problemYunlong Song1-1/+1
Current MAX_PID is only 65536, which will cause assertion failure problem when CPU cores are more than 64 in x86_64. This is because the pid_max value in x86_64 is at least PIDS_PER_CPU_DEFAULT * num_possible_cpus() (see function pidmap_init defined in kernel/pid.c), where PIDS_PER_CPU_DEFAULT is 1024 (defined in include/linux/threads.h). Thus for MAX_PID = 65536, the correspoinding CPU cores are 65536/1024=64. This is obviously not enough at all for x86_64, and will cause an assertion failure problem due to BUG_ON(pid >= MAX_PID) in the codes. We increase MAX_PID value from 65536 to 1024*1000, which can be used in x86_64 with 1000 cores. This number is finally decided according to the limitation of stack size of calling process. Use 'ulimit -a', the result shows the stack size of any process is 8192 Kbytes, which is defined in include/uapi/linux/resource.h (#define _STK_LIM (8*1024*1024)). Thus we choose a large enough value for MAX_PID, and make it satisfy to the limitation of the stack size, i.e., making the perf process take up a memory space just smaller than 8192 Kbytes. We have calculated and tested that 1024*1000 is OK for MAX_PID. This means perf sched replay can now be used with at most 1000 cores in x86_64 without any assertion failure problem. Example: Test environment: x86_64 with 160 cores $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max 163840 Before this patch: $ perf sched replay run measurement overhead: 240 nsecs sleep measurement overhead: 55379 nsecs the run test took 1000004 nsecs the sleep test took 1059424 nsecs perf: builtin-sched.c:330: register_pid: Assertion `!(pid >= 65536)' failed.

2015-04-08tools lib traceevent: Honor operator priorityNamhyung Kim1-1/+16
Currently it ignores operator priority and just sets processed args as a right operand. But it could result in priority inversion in case that the right operand is also a operator arg and its priority is lower. For example, following print format is from new kmem events. "page=%p", REC->pfn != -1UL ? (((struct page *)(0xffffea0000000000UL)) + (REC->pfn)) : ((void *)0) But this was treated as below: REC->pfn != ((null - 1UL) ? ((struct page *)0xffffea0000000000UL + REC->pfn) : (void *) 0) In this case, the right arg was '?' operator which has lower priority. But it just sets the whole arg so making the output confusing - page was always 0 or 1 since that's the result of logical operation. With this patch, it can handle it properly like following: ((REC->pfn != (null - 1UL)) ? ((struct page *)0xffffea0000000000UL + REC->pfn) : (void *) 0) Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Acked-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <js1304@gmail.com> Cc: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1428298576-9785-10-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.org [ Replaced 'swap' with 'rotate' in a comment as requested by Steve and agreed by Namhyung ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

2015-04-08x86, selftests: Add sigreturn selftestAndy Lutomirski6-0/+760
This is my sigreturn test, added mostly unchanged from its old home. It exercises the sigreturn(2) syscall, specifically focusing on its interactions with various IRET corner cases. It tests for correct behavior in several areas that were historically dangerously buggy. For example, it exercises espfix on kernels of both bitnesses under various conditions, and it contains testcases for several now-fixed bugs in IRET error handling. If you run it on older kernels without the fixes, your system will crash. It probably won't eat your data in the process. There is no released kernel on which the sigreturn_64 test will pass, but it passes on tip:x86/asm. I plan to switch to lib.mk for Linux 4.2. I'm not using the ksft_ helpers at all yet.

After this patch: # perf script File perf.data not owned by current user or root (use -f to override) # perf script -f :41298 41298 2590086.564226: 1 cycles: ffffffff8103efc6 native_write_msr_safe ([kernel.kallsyms]) :41298 41298 2590086.564244: 1 cycles: ffffffff8103efc6 native_write_msr_safe ([kernel.kallsyms]) :41298 41298 2590086.564249: 7 cycles: ffffffff8103efc6 native_write_msr_safe ([kernel.kallsyms]) :41298 41298 2590086.564255: 176 cycles: ffffffff8103efc6 native_write_msr_safe ([kernel.kallsyms]) ls 41298 2590086.567346: 4059 cycles: ffffffff8105a592 raise_softirq ([kernel.kallsyms]) ls 41298 2590086.567353: 3717 cycles: ffffffff8105a592 raise_softirq ([kernel.kallsyms]) ls 41298 2590086.567358: 63058 cycles: ffffffff8105a592 raise_softirq ([kernel.kallsyms]) ls 41298 2590086.567448: 1706255 cycles: 406ae0 [unknown] (/usr/bin/ls) As shown above, the -f option really works now.
