Add the kernel command line tp_printk option that will have tracepoints that are active sent to printk() as well as to the trace buffer. Passing "tp_printk" will activate this. To turn it off, the sysctl /proc/sys/kernel/tracepoint_printk can have '0' echoed into it. Note, this only works if the cmdline option is used. Echoing 1 into the sysctl file without the cmdline option will have no affect. Note, this is a dangerous option. Having high frequency tracepoints send their data to printk() can possibly cause a live lock. This is another reason why this is only active if the command line option is used.

Enabling tracepoints at boot up can be very useful. The tracepoint can be initialized right after RCU has been. There's no need to wait for the early_initcall() to be called. That's too late for some things that can use tracepoints for debugging. Move the logic to enable tracepoints out of the initcalls and into init/main.c to right after rcu_init(). This also allows trace_printk() to be used early too.

When recording the state of a task for the sched_switch tracepoint a check of task_preempt_count() is performed to see if PREEMPT_ACTIVE is set. This is because, technically, a task being preempted is really in the TASK_RUNNING state, and that is what should be recorded when tracing a sched_switch, even if the task put itself into another state (it hasn't scheduled out in that state yet). But with the change to use per_cpu preempt counts, the task_thread_info(p)->preempt_count is no longer used, and instead task_preempt_count(p) is used. The problem is that this does not use the current preempt count but a stale one from a previous sched_switch. The task_preempt_count(p) uses saved_preempt_count and not preempt_count(). But for tracing sched_switch, if p is current, we really want preempt_count(). I hit this bug when I was tracing sleep and the call from do_nanosleep() scheduled out in the "RUNNING" state. sleep-4290 [000] 537272.259992: sched_switch: sleep:4290 [120] R ==> swapper/0:0 [120] sleep-4290 [000] 537272.260015: kernel_stack: <stack trace> => __schedule (ffffffff8150864a) => schedule (ffffffff815089f8) => do_nanosleep (ffffffff8150b76c) => hrtimer_nanosleep (ffffffff8108d66b) => SyS_nanosleep (ffffffff8108d750) => return_to_handler (ffffffff8150e8e5) => tracesys_phase2 (ffffffff8150c844) After a bit of hair pulling, I found that the state was really TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, but the saved_preempt_count had an old PREEMPT_ACTIVE set and caused the sched_switch tracepoint to show it as RUNNING.

The initial reason for this patch is that I noticed that: if (len > TRACE_BUF_SIZE) is off by one. In this code, if len == TRACE_BUF_SIZE, then it means we have truncated the last character off the output string. If we truncate two or more characters then we exit without printing. After some discussion, we decided that printing truncated data is better than not printing at all so we should just use vscnprintf() and remove the test entirely. Also I have updated memcpy() to copy the NUL char instead of setting the NUL in a separate step.

Currently, function graph tracer prints "!" or "+" just before function execution time to signal a function overhead, depending on the time. And some tracers tracing latency also print "!" or "+" just after time to signal overhead, depending on the interval between events. Even it is usually enough to do that, we sometimes need to signal for bigger execution time than 100 micro seconds. For example, I used function graph tracer to detect if there is any case that exit_mm() takes too much time. I did following steps in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. It was easier to detect very large excution time with patched kernel than with original kernel. $ echo exit_mm > set_graph_function $ echo function_graph > current_tracer $ echo > trace $ cat trace_pipe > $LOGFILE ... (do something and terminate logging) $ grep "\\$" $LOGFILE 3) $ 22082032 us | } /* kernel_map_pages */ 3) $ 22082040 us | } /* free_pages_prepare */ 3) $ 22082113 us | } /* free_hot_cold_page */ 3) $ 22083455 us | } /* free_hot_cold_page_list */ 3) $ 22083895 us | } /* release_pages */ 3) $ 22177873 us | } /* free_pages_and_swap_cache */ 3) $ 22178929 us | } /* unmap_single_vma */ 3) $ 22198885 us | } /* unmap_vmas */ 3) $ 22206949 us | } /* exit_mmap */ 3) $ 22207659 us | } /* mmput */ 3) $ 22207793 us | } /* exit_mm */ And then, it was easy to find out that a schedule-out occured by sub_preempt_count() within kernel_map_pages(). To detect very large function exection time caused by either problematic function implementation or scheduling issues, this patch can be useful.

Ted noticed that he could not filter on an event for a bit being cleared. That's because the filtering logic only tests event fields with a limited number of comparisons which, for bit logic, only include "&", which can test if a bit is set, but there's no good way to see if a bit is clear. This adds a way to do: !(field & 2048) Which returns true if the bit is not set, and false otherwise. Note, currently !(field1 == 10 && field2 == 15) is not supported. That is, the 'not' only works for direct comparisons, not for the AND and OR logic.

Instead, if we make it the second parameter and have ip as the first parameter (self_addr), then it can use the %rdi from save_mcount_regs that loads it already.

The save_mcount_regs macro saves and restores the required mcount regs that need to be saved before calling C code. It is done for all the function hook utilities (static tracing, dynamic tracing, regs, function graph). When frame pointers are enabled, the ftrace trampolines need to set up frames and pointers such that a back trace (dump stack) can continue passed them. Currently, a separate macro is used (create_frame) to do this, but it's only done for the ftrace_caller and ftrace_reg_caller functions. It is not done for the static tracer or function graph tracing. Instead of having a separate macro doing the recording of the frames, have the save_mcount_regs perform this task. This also has all tracers saving the frame pointers when needed.

The macro save_mcount_regs saves regs onto the stack. But to uncouple the amount of stack used in that macro from the users of the macro, we need to have a define that tells all the users how much stack is used by that macro. This way we can change the amount of stack the macro uses without breaking its users. Also remove some dead code that was left over from commit fdc841b5 "ftrace: x86: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop".

Currently save_mcount_regs is passed a "skip" parameter to know how much stack updated the pt_regs, as it tries to keep the saved pt_regs in the same location for all users. This is rather stupid, especially since the part stored on the pt_regs has nothing to do with what is suppose to be in that location. Instead of doing that, just pass in an "added" parameter that lets that macro know how much stack was added before it was called so that it can get to the RIP. But the difference is that it will now offset the pt_regs by that "added" count. The caller now needs to take care of the offset of the pt_regs. This will make it easier to simplify the code later.

Instead of having save_mcount_regs store the RIP in %rdx as a temp register to place it in the proper location of the pt_regs on the stack. Use the %rdi register as the temp register. This lets us remove the extra store in the ftrace_caller_setup macro.

The name MCOUNT_SAVE_FRAME is rather confusing as it really isn't a function frame that is saved, but just the required mcount registers that are needed to be saved before C code may be called. The word "frame" confuses it as being a function frame which it is not. Rename MCOUNT_SAVE_FRAME and MCOUNT_RESTORE_FRAME to save_mcount_regs and restore_mcount_regs respectively. Noticed the lower case, which keeps it from screaming at the reviewers.

Linus pointed out that there were locations that did the hard coded update of the parent and rip parameters. One of them was the static tracer which could also use the ftrace_caller_setup to do that work. In fact, because it did not use it, it is prone to bugs, and since the static tracer is hardly ever used (who wants function tracing code always being called?) it doesn't get tested very often. I only run a few "does it still work" tests on it. But I do not run stress tests on that code. Although, since it is never turned off, just having it on should be stressful enough. (especially for the performance folks) There's no reason that the static tracer can't also use ftrace_caller_setup. Have it do so.

New updates to the ftrace generic code had ftrace_stub not always being called when ftrace is off. This causes the static tracer to always save and restore functions. But it also showed that when function tracing is running, the function graph tracer can not. We should always check to see if function graph tracing is running even if the function tracer is running too. The function tracer code is not the only one that uses the hook to function mcount.

Introduce FTRACE_OPS_FL_IPMODIFY to avoid conflict among ftrace users who may modify regs->ip to change the execution path. If two or more users modify the regs->ip on the same function entry, one of them will be broken. So they must add IPMODIFY flag and make sure that ftrace_set_filter_ip() succeeds. Note that ftrace doesn't allow ftrace_ops which has IPMODIFY flag to have notrace hash, and the ftrace_ops must have a filter hash (so that the ftrace_ops can hook only specific entries), because it strongly depends on the address and must be allowed for only few selected functions.

Recover original IP register if the pre_handler doesn't change it. Since current kprobes doesn't expect that another ftrace handler may change regs->ip, it sets kprobe.addr + MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE to regs->ip and returns to ftrace. This seems wrong behavior since kprobes can recover regs->ip and safely pass it to another handler. This adds code which recovers original regs->ip passed from ftrace right before returning to ftrace, so that another ftrace user can change regs->ip.

The trace_seq_printf() and friends are used to store strings into a buffer that can be passed around from function to function. If the trace_seq buffer fills up, it will not print any more. The return values were somewhat inconsistant and using trace_seq_has_overflowed() was a better way to know if the write to the trace_seq buffer succeeded or not. Now that all users have removed reading the return value of the printf() type functions, they can safely return void and keep future users of them from reading the inconsistent values as well.

Adding a trace_seq_has_overflowed() which returns true if the trace_seq had too much written into it allows us to simplify the code. Instead of checking the return value of every call to trace_seq_printf() and friends, they can all be called normally, and at the end we can return !trace_seq_has_overflowed() instead. Several functions also return TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE when the trace_seq overflowed and TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED otherwise. Another helper function was created called trace_handle_return() which takes a trace_seq and returns these enums. Using this helper function also simplifies the code. This change also makes it possible to remove the return values of trace_seq_printf() and friends. They should instead just be void functions.

In trace_seq_bitmask() it calls bitmap_scnprintf() not from the current position of the trace_seq buffer (s->buffer + s->len), but instead from the beginning of the buffer (s->buffer). Luckily, the only user of this "ipi_raise tracepoint" uses it as the first parameter, and as such, the start of the temp buffer in include/trace/ftrace.h (see __get_bitmask()).

Use the helper function trace_seq_buffer_ptr() to get the current location of the next buffer write of a trace_seq object, instead of open coding it. This facilitates the conversion of trace_seq to use seq_buf.

To allow for the restructiong of the trace_seq code, we need users of it to use the helper functions instead of accessing the internals of the trace_seq structure itself.

Stack traces that happen from function tracing check if the address on the stack is a __kernel_text_address(). That is, is the address kernel code. This calls core_kernel_text() which returns true if the address is part of the builtin kernel code. It also calls is_module_text_address() which returns true if the address belongs to module code. But what is missing is ftrace dynamically allocated trampolines. These trampolines are allocated for individual ftrace_ops that call the ftrace_ops callback functions directly. But if they do a stack trace, the code checking the stack wont detect them as they are neither core kernel code nor module address space. Adding another field to ftrace_ops that also stores the size of the trampoline assigned to it we can create a new function called is_ftrace_trampoline() that returns true if the address is a dynamically allocate ftrace trampoline. Note, it ignores trampolines that are not dynamically allocated as they will return true with the core_kernel_text() function.
