tracing: Add sched_wakeup_new and sched_waking tracepoints for pid filter

2015-12-01T21:08:05Z

The set_event_pid filter relies on attaching to the sched_switch and sched_wakeup tracepoints to see if it should filter the tracing on schedule tracepoints. By adding the callbacks to sched_wakeup, pids in the set_event_pid file will trace the wakeups of those tasks with those pids. But sched_wakeup_new and sched_waking were missed. These two should also be traced. Luckily, these tracepoints share the same class as sched_wakeup which means they can use the same pre and post callbacks as sched_wakeup does.

Pull tracking updates from Steven Rostedt: "Most of the changes are clean ups and small fixes. Some of them have stable tags to them. I searched through my INBOX just as the merge window opened and found lots of patches to pull. I ran them through all my tests and they were in linux-next for a few days. Features added this release: ---------------------------- - Module globbing. You can now filter function tracing to several modules. # echo '*:mod:*snd*' > set_ftrace_filter (Dmitry Safonov) - Tracer specific options are now visible even when the tracer is not active. It was rather annoying that you can only see and modify tracer options after enabling the tracer. Now they are in the options/ directory even when the tracer is not active. Although they are still only visible when the tracer is active in the trace_options file. - Trace options are now per instance (although some of the tracer specific options are global) - New tracefs file: set_event_pid. If any pid is added to this file, then all events in the instance will filter out events that are not part of this pid. sched_switch and sched_wakeup events handle next and the wakee pids" * tag 'trace-v4.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (68 commits) tracefs: Fix refcount imbalance in start_creating() tracing: Put back comma for empty fields in boot string parsing tracing: Apply tracer specific options from kernel command line. tracing: Add some documentation about set_event_pid ring_buffer: Remove unneeded smp_wmb() before wakeup of reader benchmark tracing: Allow dumping traces without tracking trace started cpus ring_buffer: Fix more races when terminating the producer in the benchmark ring_buffer: Do no not complete benchmark reader too early tracing: Remove redundant TP_ARGS redefining tracing: Rename max_stack_lock to stack_trace_max_lock tracing: Allow arch-specific stack tracer recordmcount: arm64: Replace the ignored mcount call into nop recordmcount: Fix endianness handling bug for nop_mcount tracepoints: Fix documentation of RCU lockdep checks tracing: ftrace_event_is_function() can return boolean tracing: is_legal_op() can return boolean ring-buffer: rb_event_is_commit() can return boolean ring-buffer: rb_per_cpu_empty() can return boolean ring_buffer: ring_buffer_empty{cpu}() can return boolean ring-buffer: rb_is_reader_page() can return boolean ...

tracing: Put back comma for empty fields in boot string parsing

2015-11-04T03:15:14Z

Both early_enable_events() and apply_trace_boot_options() parse a boot string that may get parsed later on. They both use strsep() which converts a comma into a nul character. To still allow the boot string to be parsed again the same way, the nul character gets converted back to a comma after the token is processed. The problem is that these two functions check for an empty parameter (two commas in a row ",,"), and continue the loop if the parameter is empty, but fails to place the comma back. In this case, the second parsing will end at this blank field, and not process fields afterward. In most cases, users should not have an empty field, but if its going to be checked, the code might as well be correct. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Call on_each_cpu() when adding or removing single pids from set_event_pid

2015-11-02T18:08:26Z

For the case where pids are already in set_event_pid, and one is added or removed then each CPU should be checked to make sure that the new or old pid is on or not on a CPU. For example: # echo 123 >> set_event_pid or # echo '!123' >> set_event_pid Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20151030061643.GA19480@cac Suggested-by: Jiaxing Wang Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Fix sparse RCU warning

2015-10-26T07:51:32Z

p_start() and p_stop() are seq_file functions that match. Teach sparse to know that rcu_read_lock_sched() that is taken by p_start() is released by p_stop. Reported-by: kbuild test robot Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Check all tasks on each CPU when filtering pids

2015-10-26T01:33:56Z

My tests found that if a task is running but not filtered when set_event_pid is modified, then it can still be traced. Call on_each_cpu() to check if the current running task should be filtered and update the per cpu flags of tr->data appropriately. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Implement event pid filtering

2015-10-26T01:33:56Z

Add the necessary hooks to use the pids loaded in set_event_pid to filter all the events enabled in the tracing instance that match the pids listed. Two probes are added to both sched_switch and sched_wakeup tracepoints to be called before other probes are called and after the other probes are called. The first is used to set the necessary flags to let the probes know to test if they should be traced or not. The sched_switch pre probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if neither the previous or next task has a matching pid. The sched_switch probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if the next task does not match the matching pid. The pre probe allows for probes tracing sched_switch to be traced if necessary. The sched_wakeup pre probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if neither the current task nor the wakee task has a matching pid. The sched_wakeup post probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if the current task does not have a matching pid. Cc: "Paul E. McKenney" Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Add set_event_pid directory for future use

2015-10-26T01:33:55Z

Create a tracing directory called set_event_pid, which currently has no function, but will be used to filter all events for the tracing instance or the pids that are added to the file. The reason no functionality is added with this commit is that this commit focuses on the creation and removal of the pids in a safe manner. And tests can be made against this change to make sure things are correct before hooking features to the list of pids. Cc: "Paul E. McKenney" Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Use kstrdup_const instead of private implementation

2015-10-01T13:05:17Z

The kernel now has kstrdup_const/kfree_const for reusing .rodata (typically string literals) when possible; there's no reason to duplicate that logic in the tracing system. Moreover, as the comment above core_kernel_data states, it may not always return true for .rodata - that is for example the case on x86_64, where we thus end up kstrdup'ing all the passed-in strings. Arguably, testing for .rodata explicitly (as kstrdup_const does) is also more correct: I don't think one is supposed to be able to change the name after creating the event_subsystem by passing the address of a static char (but non-const) array.

tracing: Make ftrace_trace_stack() depend on general trace_array flag

2015-09-30T19:22:57Z

In preparation for the multi buffer instances to have their own trace_flags, the check in ftrace_trace_stack() needs to test the trace_array descriptor flag that is for the current event, not the global_trace descriptor. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt
