Mention the alternative of adding trace_clock=global to the kernel command line when we detect that we've used an unstable clock across a suspend/resume cycle.

Across suspend, we may see a very large drift in timestamps if the sched clock is unstable, prompting the global trace's ringbuffer code to warn and suggest switching to the global clock. Preempt this request by detecting when the sched clock is unstable (determined during late_initcall) and automatically switching the default clock over to trace_global_clock. This should prevent requiring user interaction to resolve warnings such as: Delta way too big! 18446743856563626466 ts=18446744054496180323 write stamp = 197932553857 If you just came from a suspend/resume, please switch to the trace global clock: echo global > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_clock Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180330150132.16903-1-chris@chris-wilson.co.ukSigned-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The early_initcall() functions get assigned to __initcall_start[]. These are called by do_pre_smp_initcalls(). The initcall_levels[] array starts with __initcall0_start[], and initcall_levels[] are to match the initcall_level_names[] array. The first name in that array is "early", but that is not correct. As pure_initcall() functions get assigned to __initcall0_start[] array. Change the first name in initcall_level_names[] array to "pure". Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Al Viro reviewed the filter logic of ftrace trace events and found it to be very troubling. It creates a binary tree based on the logic operators and walks it during tracing. He sent myself and Tom Zanussi a long explanation (and formal proof) of how to do the string parsing better and end up with a program array that can be simply iterated to come up with the correct results. I took his ideas and his pseudo code and rewrote the filter logic based on them. In doing so, I was able to remove a lot of code, and have a much more condensed filter logic in the process. I wrote a very long comment describing the methadology that Al proposed in my own words. For more info on how this works, read the comment above predicate_parse().

The pred_funcs_##type arrays consist of five functions that are assigned based on the ops. The array must be in the same order of the ops each function represents. The PRED_FUNC_START macro denotes the op enum that starts the op that maps to the pred_funcs_##type arrays. This is all very subtle and prone to bugs if the code is changed. Add comments describing how PRED_FUNC_START and pred_funcs_##type array is used, and also a PRED_FUNC_MAX that is the maximum number of functions in the arrays. Clean up select_comparison_fn() that assigns the predicates to the pred_funcs_##type array function as well as add protection in case an op is passed in that does not map correctly to the array.

Instead of having a separate enum that is the index into another array, like a string array, make a single macro that combines them into a single list, and then the two can not get out of sync. This makes it easier to add and remove items. The macro trick is: #define DOGS \ C( JACK, "Jack Russell") \ C( ITALIAN, "Italian Greyhound") \ C( GERMAN, "German Shepherd") #undef C #define C(a, b) a enum { DOGS }; #undef C #define C(a, b) b static char dogs[] = { DOGS }; Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The replace_filter_string() frees the current string and then copies a given string. But in the two locations that it was used, the allocation happened right after the filter was allocated (nothing to replace). There's no need for this to be a helper function. Embedding the allocation in the two places where it was called will make changing the code in the future easier. Also make the variable consistent (always use "filter_string" as the name, as it was used in one instance as "filter_str") Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The ring-buffer code has recusion protection in case tracing ends up tracing itself, the ring-buffer will detect that it was called at the same context (normal, softirq, interrupt or NMI), and not continue to record the event. With the histogram synthetic events, they are called while tracing another event at the same context. The recusion protection triggers because it detects tracing at the same context and stops it. Add ring_buffer_nest_start() and ring_buffer_nest_end() that will notify the ring buffer that a trace is about to happen within another trace and that it is intended, and not to trigger the recursion blocking.

Add a 'last error' facility accessible via the erroring event's 'hist' file. Reading the hist file after an error will display more detailed information about what went wrong, if information is available. This extended error information will be available until the next hist trigger command for that event. # echo xxx > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger echo: write error: Invalid argument # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist ERROR: Couldn't yyy: zzz Last command: xxx Also add specific error messages for variable and action errors.

Aliases are a way of creating a new name for an existing variable, for flexibly in making naming more clear in certain cases. For example in the below the user perhaps feels that using $new_lat in the synthetic event invocation is opaque or doesn't fit well stylistically with previous triggers, so creates an alias of $new_lat named $latency and uses that in the call instead: # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:new_lat=common_timestamp.usecs' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger # echo 'hist:keys=pid:latency=$new_lat: onmatch(sched.sched_switch).wake2($latency,pid)' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wake1/trigger Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/ef20a65d921af3a873a6f1e8c71407c926d5586f.1516069914.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Add an 'onmax(var).save(field,...)' hist trigger action which is invoked whenever an event exceeds the current maximum. The end result is that the trace event fields or variables specified as the onmax.save() params will be saved if 'var' exceeds the current maximum for that hist trigger entry. This allows context from the event that exhibited the new maximum to be saved for later reference. When the histogram is displayed, additional fields displaying the saved values will be printed. As an example the below defines a couple of hist triggers, one for sched_wakeup and another for sched_switch, keyed on pid. Whenever a sched_wakeup occurs, the timestamp is saved in the entry corresponding to the current pid, and when the scheduler switches back to that pid, the timestamp difference is calculated. If the resulting latency exceeds the current maximum latency, the specified save() values are saved: # echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs \ if comm=="cyclictest"' >> \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:\ wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:\ onmax($wakeup_lat).save(next_comm,prev_pid,prev_prio,prev_comm) \ if next_comm=="cyclictest"' >> \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger When the histogram is displayed, the max value and the saved values corresponding to the max are displayed following the rest of the fields: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/hist { next_pid: 3728 } hitcount: 199 \ max: 123 next_comm: cyclictest prev_pid: 0 \ prev_prio: 120 prev_comm: swapper/3 { next_pid: 3730 } hitcount: 1321 \ max: 15 next_comm: cyclictest prev_pid: 0 \ prev_prio: 120 prev_comm: swapper/1 { next_pid: 3729 } hitcount: 1973\ max: 25 next_comm: cyclictest prev_pid: 0 \ prev_prio: 120 prev_comm: swapper/0 Totals: Hits: 3493 Entries: 3 Dropped: 0 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/006907f71b1e839bb059337ec3c496f84fcb71de.1516069914.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Add an 'onmatch(matching.event).<synthetic_event_name>(param list)' hist trigger action which is invoked with the set of variables or event fields named in the 'param list'. The result is the generation of a synthetic event that consists of the values contained in those variables and/or fields at the time the invoking event was hit. As an example the below defines a simple synthetic event using a variable defined on the sched_wakeup_new event, and shows the event definition with unresolved fields, since the sched_wakeup_new event with the testpid variable hasn't been defined yet: # echo 'wakeup_new_test pid_t pid; int prio' >> \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events wakeup_new_test pid_t pid; int prio The following hist trigger both defines a testpid variable and specifies an onmatch() trace action that uses that variable along with a non-variable field to generate a wakeup_new_test synthetic event whenever a sched_wakeup_new event occurs, which because of the 'if comm == "cyclictest"' filter only happens when the executable is cyclictest: # echo 'hist:testpid=pid:keys=$testpid:\ onmatch(sched.sched_wakeup_new).wakeup_new_test($testpid, prio) \ if comm=="cyclictest"' >> \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup_new/trigger Creating and displaying a histogram based on those events is now just a matter of using the fields and new synthetic event in the tracing/events/synthetic directory, as usual: # echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:sort=pid,prio' >> \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_new_test/trigger Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/8c2a574bcb7530c876629c901ecd23911b14afe8.1516069914.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rajvi Jingar <rajvi.jingar@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Users should be able to directly specify event fields in hist trigger 'actions' rather than being forced to explicitly create a variable for that purpose. Add support allowing fields to be used directly in actions, which essentially does just that - creates 'invisible' variables for each bare field specified in an action. If a bare field refers to a field on another (matching) event, it even creates a special histogram for the purpose (since variables can't be defined on an existing histogram after histogram creation). Here's a simple example that demonstrates both. Basically the onmatch() action creates a list of variables corresponding to the parameters of the synthetic event to be generated, and then uses those values to generate the event. So for the wakeup_latency synthetic event 'call' below the first param, $wakeup_lat, is a variable defined explicitly on sched_switch, where 'next_pid' is just a normal field on sched_switch, and prio is a normal field on sched_waking. Since the mechanism works on variables, those two normal fields just have 'invisible' variables created internally for them. In the case of 'prio', which is on another event, we actually need to create an additional hist trigger and define the invisible variable on that, since once a hist trigger is defined, variables can't be added to it later. echo 'wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio' >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/trigger echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0: onmatch(sched.sched_waking).wakeup_latency($wakeup_lat,next_pid,prio) >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/8e8dcdac1ea180ed7a3689e1caeeccede9dc42b3.1516069914.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.comSigned-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Synthetic events are user-defined events generated from hist trigger variables saved from one or more other events. To define a synthetic event, the user writes a simple specification consisting of the name of the new event along with one or more variables and their type(s), to the tracing/synthetic_events file. For instance, the following creates a new event named 'wakeup_latency' with 3 fields: lat, pid, and prio: # echo 'wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio' >> \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events Reading the tracing/synthetic_events file lists all the currently-defined synthetic events, in this case the event we defined above: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio At this point, the synthetic event is ready to use, and a histogram can be defined using it: # echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio,lat.log2:sort=pid,lat' >> \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency/trigger The new event is created under the tracing/events/synthetic/ directory and looks and behaves just like any other event: # ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency enable filter format hist id trigger Although a histogram can be defined for it, nothing will happen until an action tracing that event via the trace_synth() function occurs. The trace_synth() function is very similar to all the other trace_* invocations spread throughout the kernel, except in this case the trace_ function and its corresponding tracepoint isn't statically generated but defined by the user at run-time. How this can be automatically hooked up via a hist trigger 'action' is discussed in a subsequent patch.

Add a hook for executing extra actions whenever a histogram entry is added or updated.

Add the necessary infrastructure to allow the variables defined on one event to be referenced in another. This allows variables set by a previous event to be referenced and used in expressions combining the variable values saved by that previous event and the event fields of the current event. For example, here's how a latency can be calculated and saved into yet another variable named 'wakeup_lat': # echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:ts0=common_timestamp ... # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp-$ts0 ... In the first event, the event's timetamp is saved into the variable ts0. In the next line, ts0 is subtracted from the second event's timestamp to produce the latency. Further users of variable references will be described in subsequent patches, such as for instance how the 'wakeup_lat' variable above can be displayed in a latency histogram.

Named triggers must also have the same set of variables in order to be considered compatible - update the trigger match test to account for that. The reason for this requirement is that named triggers with variables are meant to allow one or more events to set the same variable.

Add support for saving the value of a current event's event field by assigning it to a variable that can be read by a subsequent event. The basic syntax for saving a variable is to simply prefix a unique variable name not corresponding to any keyword along with an '=' sign to any event field. Both keys and values can be saved and retrieved in this way: # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:vals=$ts0:ts0=common_timestamp ... # echo 'hist:timer_pid=common_pid:key=$timer_pid ...' If a variable isn't a key variable or prefixed with 'vals=', the associated event field will be saved in a variable but won't be summed as a value: # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:ts1=common_timestamp:... Multiple variables can be assigned at the same time: # echo 'hist:keys=pid:vals=$ts0,$b,field2:ts0=common_timestamp,b=field1 ... Multiple (or single) variables can also be assigned at the same time using separate assignments: # echo 'hist:keys=pid:vals=$ts0:ts0=common_timestamp:b=field1:c=field2 ... Variables set as above can be used by being referenced from another event, as described in a subsequent patch.

Appending .usecs onto a common_timestamp field will cause the timestamp value to be in microseconds instead of the default nanoseconds. A typical latency histogram using usecs would look like this: # echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs ... # echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0 ... This also adds an external trace_clock_in_ns() to trace.c for the timestamp conversion.

Allow hist_data access via hist_field. Some users of hist_fields require or will require more access to the associated hist_data.

In order to allow information to be passed between trace events, add support for per-element variables to tracing_map. This provides a means for histograms to associate a value or values with an entry when it's saved or updated, and retrieved by a subsequent event occurrences. Variables can be set using tracing_map_set_var() and read using tracing_map_read_var(). tracing_map_var_set() returns true or false depending on whether or not the variable has been set or not, which is important for event-matching applications. tracing_map_read_var_once() reads the variable and resets it to the 'unset' state, implementing read-once variables, which are also important for event-matching uses.

Add support for a timestamp event field. This is actually a 'pseudo-' event field in that it behaves like it's part of the event record, but is really part of the corresponding ring buffer event. To make use of the timestamp field, users can specify "common_timestamp" as a field name for any histogram. Note that this doesn't make much sense on its own either as either a key or value, but needs to be supported even so, since follow-on patches will add support for making use of this field in time deltas. The common_timestamp 'field' is not a bona fide event field - so you won't find it in the event description - but rather it's a synthetic field that can be used like a real field. Note that the use of this field requires the ring buffer be put into 'absolute timestamp' mode, which saves the complete timestamp for each event rather than an offset. This mode will be enabled if and only if a histogram makes use of the "common_timestamp" field.
