Impact: New way of using the blktrace infrastructure
This drops the requirement of userspace utilities to use the blktrace
facility.
Configuration is done thru sysfs, adding a "trace" directory to the
partition directory where blktrace can be enabled for the associated
request_queue.
The same filters present in the IOCTL interface are present as sysfs
device attributes.
The /sys/block/sdX/sdXN/trace/enable file allows tracing without any
filters.
The other files in this directory: pid, act_mask, start_lba and end_lba
can be used with the same meaning as with the IOCTL interface.
Using the sysfs interface will only setup the request_queue->blk_trace
fields, tracing will only take place when the "blk" tracer is selected
via the ftrace interface, as in the following example:
To see the trace, one can use the /d/tracing/trace file or the
/d/tracign/trace_pipe file, with semantics defined in the ftrace
documentation in Documentation/ftrace.txt.

[root@f10-1 ~]#
The default line context (prefix) format is the one described in the ftrace
documentation, with the blktrace specific bits using its existing format,
described in blkparse(8).
If one wants to have the classic blktrace formatting, this is possible by
using:
[root@f10-1 ~]# echo blk_classic > /t/trace_options
[root@f10-1 ~]# cat /t/trace
8,1 0 3046.491224 305 A WBS 6367 + 8 <- (8,1) 6304

8,1 0 3046.511914 0 C RS 6367 + 8 [6367]
[root@f10-1 ~]#
Using the ftrace standard format allows more flexibility, such
as the ability of asking for backtraces via trace_options:
[root@f10-1 ~]# echo noblk_classic > /t/trace_options
[root@f10-1 ~]# echo stacktrace > /t/trace_options
[root@f10-1 ~]# cat /t/trace

Please read the ftrace documentation to use aditional, standardized
tracing filters such as /d/tracing/trace_cpumask, etc.
See also /d/tracing/trace_mark to add comments in the trace stream,
that is equivalent to the /d/block/sdaN/msg interface.

This patch brings various bugfixes:
- Drop the first irrelevant task switch on the very beginning of a trace.
- Drop the OVERHEAD word from the headers, the DURATION word is sufficient
and will not overlap other columns.
- Make the headers fit well their respective columns whatever the
selected options.
Ie, default options:
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
1) 0.646 us | }
1) | mem_cgroup_del_lru_list() {
1) 0.624 us | lookup_page_cgroup();
1) 1.970 us | }
echo funcgraph-proc > trace_options
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU TASK/PID DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | | | |
0) bash-2937 | 0.895 us | }
0) bash-2937 | 0.888 us | __rcu_read_unlock();
0) bash-2937 | 0.864 us | conv_uni_to_pc();
0) bash-2937 | 1.015 us | __rcu_read_lock();
echo nofuncgraph-cpu > trace_options
echo nofuncgraph-proc > trace_options
# tracer: function_graph
#
# DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | |
3.752 us | native_pud_val();
0.616 us | native_pud_val();
0.624 us | native_pmd_val();
About features, one can now disable the duration (this will hide the
overhead too for convenient reasons and because on doesn't need
overhead if it hasn't the duration):
echo nofuncgraph-duration > trace_options
# tracer: function_graph
#
# FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | |
cap_vm_enough_memory() {
__vm_enough_memory() {
vm_acct_memory();
}
}
}
And at last, an option to print the absolute time:
//Restart from default options
echo funcgraph-abstime > trace_options
# tracer: function_graph
#
# TIME CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | | |
261.339774 | 1) + 42.823 us | }
261.339775 | 1) 1.045 us | _spin_lock_irq();
261.339777 | 1) 0.940 us | _spin_lock_irqsave();
261.339778 | 1) 0.752 us | _spin_unlock_irqrestore();
261.339780 | 1) 0.857 us | _spin_unlock_irq();

261.339786 | 1) 0.842 us | _spin_unlock_irqrestore();
261.339788 | 1) 4.211 us | }
261.339788 | 1) 5.662 us | }
The format is seconds.usecs.
I guess no one needs the nanosec precision here, the main goal is to have
an overview about the general timings of events, and to see the place when
the trace switches from one cpu to another.
ie:
274.874760 | 1) 0.676 us | _spin_unlock();
274.874762 | 1) 0.609 us | native_load_sp0();
274.874763 | 1) 0.602 us | native_load_tls();
274.878739 | 0) 0.722 us | }
274.878740 | 0) 0.714 us | native_pmd_val();
274.878741 | 0) 0.730 us | native_pmd_val();
Here there is a 4000 usecs difference when we switch the cpu.

Impact: fix to erased trace output
To try not to have the outputing of a trace interfere with the wakeup
tracer, it would disable tracing while the output was printing. But
if a trace had started when it was disabled, it can show a partial
trace. To try to solve this, on closing of the tracer, it would
clear the trace buffer.
The latency tracers (wakeup and irqsoff) have two buffers. One for
recording and one for holding the max trace that is printed. The
clearing of the trace above should only affect the recording buffer.
But for some reason it would move the erased trace to the print
buffer. Probably due to a race with the closing of the trace and
the saving ofhe max race.
The above is all pretty useless, and if the user does not want the
printing of the trace to be traced itself, then the user can manual
disable tracing. This patch removes all the code that tries to keep
the output of the tracer from modifying the trace.

developer adds it to their own local tree, the log level of
the print should be at KERN_EMERG to make sure the print appears.

Impact: fix a crash while kernel image restore
When the function graph tracer is running and while suspend to disk, some racy
and dangerous things happen against this tracer.
The current task will save its registers including the stack pointer which
contains the return address hooked by the tracer. But the current task will
continue to enter other functions after that to save the memory, and then
it will store other return addresses, and finally loose the old depth which
matches the return address saved in the old stack (during the registers saving).
So on image restore, the code will return to wrong addresses.
And there are other things: on restore, the task will have it's "current"
pointer overwritten during registers restoring....switching from one task to
another... That would be insane to try to trace function graphs at these
stages.
This patch makes the function graph tracer listening on power events, making

Impact: fix to allow some archs to use the ring buffer
Commits in the ring buffer are checked by pointer arithmetic.
If the calculation is incorrect, then the commits will never take
place and the buffer will simply fill up and report an error.
Each page in the ring buffer has a small header:
struct buffer_data_page {
u64 time_stamp;
local_t commit;
unsigned char data[];
};
Unfortuntely, some of the calculations used sizeof(struct buffer_data_page)
to know the size of the header. But this is incorrect on some archs,
where sizeof(struct buffer_data_page) does not equal
offsetof(struct buffer_data_page, data), and on those archs, the commits
are never processed.
This patch replaces the sizeof with offsetof.

Impact: new tracer
The workqueue tracer provides some statistical informations
about each cpu workqueue thread such as the number of the
works inserted and executed since their creation. It can help
to evaluate the amount of work each of them have to perform.
For example it can help a developer to decide whether he should
choose a per cpu workqueue instead of a singlethreaded one.
It only traces statistical informations for now but it will probably later
provide event tracing too.
Such a tracer could help too, and be improved, to help rt priority sorted
workqueue development.
To have a snapshot of the workqueues state at any time, just do
cat /debugfs/tracing/trace_stat/workqueues

Impact: tracing's Api change
Currently, the stat tracing depends on the events tracing.
When you switch to a new tracer, the stats files of the previous tracer
will disappear. But it's more scalable to separate those two engines.
This way, we can keep the stat files of one or several tracers when we
want, without bothering of multiple tracer stat files or tracer switching.
To build/destroys its stats files, a tracer just have to call
register_stat_tracer/unregister_stat_tracer everytimes it wants to.

Define FTRACE_ADDR. In IA64, a function pointer isn't a 'unsigned long' but a
'struct {unsigned long ip, unsigned long gp}'.

In IA64, a function pointer isn't a 'unsigned long' but a
'struct {unsigned long ip, unsigned long gp}'. MCOUNT_ADDR is determined
at link time not compile time, so explictly ignore kernel/trace/ftrace.o
in recordmcount.pl.

Impact: enhances lost events counting in mmiotrace
The tracing framework, or the ring buffer facility it uses, has a switch
to stop recording data. When recording is off, the trace events will be
lost. The framework does not count these, so mmiotrace has to count them
itself.

Impact: cosmetic change in Kconfig menu layout
This patch was originally suggested by Peter Zijlstra, but seems it
was forgotten.
CONFIG_MMIOTRACE and CONFIG_MMIOTRACE_TEST were selectable
directly under the Kernel hacking / debugging menu in the kernel
configuration system. They were present only for x86 and x86_64.
Other tracers that use the ftrace tracing framework are in their own
sub-menu. This patch moves the mmiotrace configuration options there.
Since the Kconfig file, where the tracer menu is, is not architecture
specific, HAVE_MMIOTRACE_SUPPORT is introduced and provided only by
x86/x86_64. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE now depends on it.

Impact: new API for tracers
Make the stat tracing API reentrant. And also provide the new directory
/debugfs/tracing/trace_stat which will contain all the stat files for the
current active tracer.
Now a tracer will, if desired, want to provide a zero terminated array of
tracer_stat structures.
Each one contains the callbacks necessary for one stat file.
It have to provide at least a name for its stat file, an iterator with
stat_start/start_next callback and an output callback for one stat entry.
Also adapt the branch tracer to this new API.
We create two files "all" and "annotated" inside the /debugfs/tracing/trace_stat
directory, making the both stats simultaneously available instead of needing
to change an option to switch from one stat file to another.
The output of these stats haven't changed.
Changes in v2:
_ Apply the previous memory leak fix (rebase against tip/master)
Changes in v3:
_ Merge the patch that adapted the branch tracer to this Api in this patch to
not break the kernel build.
