15 years agoftrace: trace different functions with a different tracer
Steven Rostedt [Sat, 14 Feb 2009 20:29:06 +0000 (15:29 -0500)] 
ftrace: trace different functions with a different tracer

Impact: new feature

Currently, the function tracer only gives you an ability to hook
a tracer to all functions being traced. The dynamic function trace
allows you to pick and choose which of those functions will be
traced, but all functions being traced will call all tracers that
registered with the function tracer.

This patch adds a new feature that allows a tracer to hook to specific
functions, even when all functions are being traced. It allows for
different functions to call different tracer hooks.

The way this is accomplished is by a special function that will hook
to the function tracer and will set up a hash table knowing which
tracer hook to call with which function. This is the most general
and easiest method to accomplish this. Later, an arch may choose
to supply their own method in changing the mcount call of a function
to call a different tracer. But that will be an exercise for the
future.

To register a function:

 struct ftrace_hook_ops {
void (*func)(unsigned long ip,
unsigned long parent_ip,
void **data);
int (*callback)(unsigned long ip, void **data);
void (*free)(void **data);
 };

 int register_ftrace_function_hook(char *glob, struct ftrace_hook_ops *ops,
  void *data);

glob is a simple glob to search for the functions to hook.
ops is a pointer to the operations (listed below)
data is the default data to be passed to the hook functions when traced

ops:
 func is the hook function to call when the functions are traced
 callback is a callback function that is called when setting up the hash.
   That is, if the tracer needs to do something special for each
   function, that is being traced, and wants to give each function
   its own data. The address of the entry data is passed to this
   callback, so that the callback may wish to update the entry to
   whatever it would like.
 free is a callback for when the entry is freed. In case the tracer
   allocated any data, it is give the chance to free it.

To unregister we have three functions:

  void
  unregister_ftrace_function_hook(char *glob, struct ftrace_hook_ops *ops,
void *data)

This will unregister all hooks that match glob, point to ops, and
have its data matching data. (note, if glob is NULL, blank or '*',
all functions will be tested).

  void
  unregister_ftrace_function_hook_func(char *glob,
 struct ftrace_hook_ops *ops)

This will unregister all functions matching glob that has an entry
pointing to ops.

  void unregister_ftrace_function_hook_all(char *glob)

This simply unregisters all funcs.

Now that ftrace_lock is a mutex, there is no reason to have three
different mutexes protecting similar data. All the mutex paths

bug that one of the iterations should exit the loop after it found the
record it was searching for. This used a break when it should have
used a goto, since there were two loops it needed to break out

to record events. If the buffer is full, the following events will be

to increase the buffer size. The buffer size is set via a debugfs file.

Mmiotrace documentation was not updated the same time the debugfs file
was changed. The old file was tracing/trace_entries and first contained
the number of entries the buffer had space for, per cpu. Nowadays this
file is replaced with the file tracing/buffer_size_kb, which tells the
amount of memory reserved for the buffer, per cpu, in kilobytes.

Previously, a flag had to be toggled via the debugfs file

net: don't use in_atomic() in gfp_any()

from spinlocked regions.

Secondly, if CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, this bug solves itself because networking
will instead use GFP_ATOMIC from this callsite.  Hence we won't get the
might_sleep() debugging warnings which would have informed us of the buggy

sched: do not account for NMIs

Impact: avoid corruption in system time accounting

Martin Schwidefsky told me that there was an issue with NMIs and
system accounting. The problem is that the accounting code is
not reentrant, and if an NMI goes off after an interrupt it can
corrupt the accounting.

For now, the best we can do is to treat NMIs like SMIs and they
are not accounted for.

This patch changes nmi_enter to not call __irq_enter and to do
the preempt-count and tracing calls directly.

Steven Rostedt [Thu, 12 Feb 2009 15:53:37 +0000 (10:53 -0500)] 
preempt-count: force hardirq-count to max of 10

To add a bit in the preempt_count to be set when in NMI context, we
found that some archs did not have enough bits to spare. This is
due to the hardirq_count being a mask that can hold NR_IRQS.

Some archs allow for over 16000 IRQs, and that would require a mask
of 14 bits. The sofitrq mask is 8 bits and the preempt disable mask
is also 8 bits.  The PREEMP_ACTIVE bit is bit 30, and bit 31 would
make the preempt_count (which is type int) a negative number.
A negative preempt_count is a sign of failure.

Add them up 14+8+8+1+1 you get 32 bits. No room for the NMI bit.

But the hardirq_count is to track the number of nested IRQs, not
the number of total IRQs.  This originally took the paranoid approach
of setting the max nesting to NR_IRQS. But when we have archs with
over 1000 IRQs, it is not practical to think they will ever all
nest on a single CPU. Not to mention that this would most definitely
cause a stack overflow.

This patch sets a max of 10 bits to be used for IRQ nesting.
I did a 'git grep HARDIRQ' to examine all users of HARDIRQ_BITS and
HARDIRQ_MASK, and found that making it a max of 10 would not hurt
anyone. I did find that the m68k expected it to be 8 bits, so
I allow for the archs to set the number to be less than 10.

I removed the setting of HARDIRQ_BITS from the archs that set it
to more than 10. This includes ALPHA, ia64 and avr32.

This will always allow room for the NMI bit, and if we need to allow
for NMI nesting, we have 4 bits to play with.

Fix page writeback thinko, causing Berkeley DB slowdown

A bug was introduced into write_cache_pages cyclic writeout by commit
31a12666d8f0c22235297e1c1575f82061480029 ("mm: write_cache_pages cyclic
fix").  The intention (and comments) is that we should cycle back and
look for more dirty pages at the beginning of the file if there is no
more work to be done.

But the !done condition was dropped from the test.  This means that any
time the page writeout loop breaks (eg.  due to nr_to_write == 0), we
will set index to 0, then goto again.  This will set done_index to
index, then find done is set, so will proceed to the end of the
function.  When updating mapping->writeback_index for cyclic writeout,
we now use done_index == 0, so we're always cycling back to 0.

This seemed to be causing random mmap writes (slapadd and iozone) to
start writing more pages from the LRU and writeout would slowdown, and
caused bugzilla entry

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12604

about Berkeley DB slowing down dramatically.

With this patch, iozone random write performance is increased nearly
5x on my system (iozone -B -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m on ext2).

nbd: fix I/O hang on disconnected nbds

Fix a problem that causes I/O to a disconnected (or partially initialized)
nbd device to hang indefinitely.  To reproduce:

# ioctl NBD_SET_SIZE_BLOCKS /dev/nbd23 514048
# dd if=/dev/nbd23 of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=1

...hangs...

This can also occur when an nbd device loses its nbd-client/server
connection.  Although we clear the queue of any outstanding I/Os after the
client/server connection fails, any additional I/Os that get queued later
will hang.

This bug may also be the problem reported in this bug report:

2.6.25.

The fix, which is fairly simple, is to restore the check for lo->sock
being NULL in do_nbd_request.  This causes I/O to an uninitialized nbd to
immediately fail with an I/O error, as it did prior to the introduction of

15 years agomm: rearrange exit_mmap() to unlock before arch_exit_mmap

mm: rearrange exit_mmap() to unlock before arch_exit_mmap

Christophe Saout reported [in precursor to:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123209902707347&w=4]:

> Note that I also some a different issue with CONFIG_UNEVICTABLE_LRU.

> a swap token)

Jeremy explained:

Yes.  In the normal case under Xen, an in-use pagetable is "pinned",
meaning that it is RO to the kernel, and all updates must go via hypercall
(or writes are trapped and emulated, which is much the same thing).  An
unpinned pagetable is not currently in use by any process, and can be
directly accessed as normal RW pages.

As an optimisation at process exit time, we unpin the pagetable as early
as possible (switching the process to init_mm), so that all the normal
pagetable teardown can happen with direct memory accesses.

This happens in exit_mmap() -> arch_exit_mmap().  The munlocking happens
a few lines below.  The obvious thing to do would be to move
arch_exit_mmap() to below the munlock code, but I think we'd want to
call it even if mm->mmap is NULL, just to be on the safe side.

Thus, this patch:

exit_mmap() needs to unlock any locked vmas before calling arch_exit_mmap,
as the latter may switch the current mm to init_mm, which would cause the
former to fail.

attempts to recreate it have failed.

This patch refuses to change the xip flag during remount in case some

mm: fix mlocked page counter mismatch

When I tested following program, I found that the mlocked counter
is strange.  It cannot free some mlocked pages.

It is because try_to_unmap_file() doesn't check real
page mappings in vmas.

That is because the goal of an address_space for a file is to find all
processes into which the file's specific interval is mapped.  It is
related to the file's interval, not to pages.

Even if the page isn't really mapped by the vma, it returns SWAP_MLOCK
since the vma has VM_LOCKED, then calls try_to_mlock_page.  After this the
mlocked counter is increased again.

COWed anon page in a file-backed vma could be a such case.  This patch
resolves it.

-- my test program --

int main()
{
       mlockall(MCL_CURRENT);

Since journal_start_commit() is now fixed to return 1 when we started a
transaction commit, there's some transaction waiting to be committed or
there's a transaction already committing, we don't need to call
ext3_force_commit() in ext3_sync_fs().  Furthermore ext3_force_commit()
can unnecessarily create sync transaction which is expensive so it's
worthwhile to remove it when we can.

jbd: fix return value of journal_start_commit()

journal_start_commit() returns 1 if either a transaction is committing or
the function has queued a transaction commit.  But it returns 0 if we
raced with somebody queueing the transaction commit as well.  This
resulted in ext3_sync_fs() not functioning correctly (description from
Arthur Jones): In the case of a data=ordered umount with pending long
symlinks which are delayed due to a long list of other I/O on the backing
block device, this causes the buffer associated with the long symlinks to
not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of fsync_super.
Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits, seeing the UMOUNT
flag and the dirty pages are never written to the backing block device,
causing long symlink corruption and exposing new or previously freed block
data to userspace.

This can be reproduced with a script created by Eric Sandeen
<sandeen@redhat.com>:

        #!/bin/bash

        umount /mnt/test2
        mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2

First, revert "iwlwifi: save PCI state before suspend, restore after
resume".  That misguided patch led to being unable to use iwlwifi
devices after resume.

Next, indicate to PCI driver that the saved PCI state is valid during suspend.

We restore PCI state and enable the device when network interface is created,
similarly PCI state is saved and the device is disabled when network interface
is removed. Thus, when .suspend is called the PCI state is saved and device
is disabled. This is the case even if an interface is never created as PCI
state is saved and device disabled during .probe.

PCI driver assumes PCI state is saved in .suspend. Saving the state at this
time will save state of disabled device and thus cause problems during
resume (resuming a disabled device). We thus indicate directly to PCI
