Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "This adds three fixes for the tracing code. The first is a bug when ftrace_dump_on_oops is triggered in atomic context and function graph tracer is the tracer that is being reported. The second fix is bad parsing of the trace_events from the kernel command line, where it would ignore specific events if the system name is used with defining the event(it enables all events within the system). The last one is a fix to the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), where a check was missing to see if the ptr was incremented to the end of the string, but the loop increments it again and can miss the nul delimiter to stop processing" * tag 'trace-v4.1-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Fix possible out of bounds memory access when parsing enums tracing: Fix incorrect enabling of trace events by boot cmdline tracing: Handle ftrace_dump() atomic context in graph_trace_open()

tracing: Fix possible out of bounds memory access when parsing enums

2015-04-17T14:34:43Z

The code that replaces the enum names with the enum values in the tracepoints' format files could possible miss the end of string nul character. This was caused by processing things like backslashes, quotes and other tokens. After processing the tokens, a check for the nul character needed to be done before continuing the loop, because the loop incremented the pointer before doing the check, which could bypass the nul character.

tracing: Fix incorrect enabling of trace events by boot cmdline

2015-04-16T13:44:07Z

There is a problem that trace events are not properly enabled with boot cmdline. The problem is that if we pass "trace_event=kmem:mm_page_alloc" to the boot cmdline, it enables all kmem trace events, and not just the page_alloc event. This is caused by the parsing mechanism. When we parse the cmdline, the buffer contents is modified due to tokenization. And, if we use this buffer again, we will get the wrong result. Unfortunately, this buffer is be accessed three times to set trace events properly at boot time. So, we need to handle this situation. There is already code handling ",", but we need another for ":". This patch adds it.

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 ...

tracing: Add TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro to map enums to their values

2015-04-08T13:39:56Z

Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or __print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not have access to what the ENUM is. For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has: __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" }) Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would not be able to map it. With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values: By 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); $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format [...] __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { 0, "flush on task switch" }, { 1, "remote shootdown" }, { 2, "local shootdown" }, { 3, "local mm shootdown" }) The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to be modified to parse them.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "The updates included in this pull request for ftrace are: o Several clean ups to the code One such clean up was to convert to 64 bit time keeping, in the ring buffer benchmark code. o Adding of __print_array() helper macro for TRACE_EVENT() o Updating the sample/trace_events/ to add samples of different ways to make trace events. Lots of features have been added since the sample code was made, and these features are mostly unknown. Developers have been making their own hacks to do things that are already available. o Performance improvements. Most notably, I found a performance bug where a waiter that is waiting for a full page from the ring buffer will see that a full page is not available, and go to sleep. The sched event caused by it going to sleep would cause it to wake up again. It would see that there was still not a full page, and go back to sleep again, and that would wake it up again, until finally it would see a full page. This change has been marked for stable. Other improvements include removing global locks from fast paths" * tag 'trace-v3.20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ring-buffer: Do not wake up a splice waiter when page is not full tracing: Fix unmapping loop in tracing_mark_write tracing: Add samples of DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and DEFINE_EVENT() tracing: Add TRACE_EVENT_FN example tracing: Add TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION sample tracing: Update the TRACE_EVENT fields available in the sample code tracing: Separate out initializing top level dir from instances tracing: Make tracing_init_dentry_tr() static trace: Use 64-bit timekeeping tracing: Add array printing helper tracing: Remove newline from trace_printk warning banner tracing: Use IS_ERR() check for return value of tracing_init_dentry() tracing: Remove unneeded includes of debugfs.h and fs.h tracing: Remove taking of trace_types_lock in pipe files tracing: Add ref count to tracer for when they are being read by pipe

tracing: Convert the tracing facility over to use tracefs

2015-02-03T17:48:41Z

debugfs was fine for the tracing facility as a quick way to get an interface. Now that tracing has matured, it should separate itself from debugfs such that it can be mounted separately without needing to mount all of debugfs with it. That is, users resist using tracing because it requires mounting debugfs. Having tracing have its own file system lets users get the features of tracing without needing to bring in the rest of the kernel's debug infrastructure. Another reason for tracefs is that debubfs does not support mkdir. Currently, to create instances, one does a mkdir in the tracing/instance directory. This is implemented via a hack that forces debugfs to do something it is not intended on doing. By converting over to tracefs, this hack can be removed and mkdir can be properly implemented. This patch does not address this yet, but it lays the ground work for that to be done. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt
