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.

Impact: clean up
Now that ftrace_lock is a mutex, there is no reason to have three
different mutexes protecting similar data. All the mutex paths
are not in hot paths, so having a mutex to cover more data is
not a problem.
This patch removes the ftrace_sysctl_lock and ftrace_start_lock
and uses the ftrace_lock to protect the locations that were protected
by these locks. By doing so, this change also removes some of
the lock nesting that was taking place.
There are still more mutexes in ftrace.c that can probably be
consolidated, but they can be dealt with later. We need to be careful
about the way the locks are nested, and by consolidating, we can cause
a recursive deadlock.

Impact: clean up
The older versions of ftrace required doing the ftrace list

Allow for other tracers to add their own commands for function
selection. This interface gives a trace the ability to name a

Impact: fix to prevent empty set_ftrace_filter and no ftrace output
The function filter is used to only trace a given set of functions.
The filter is enabled when a function name is echoed into the
set_ftrace_filter file. But if the name has a typo and the function
is not found, the filter is enabled, but no function is listed.
This makes a confusing situation where set_ftrace_filter is empty
but no functions ever get enabled for tracing.
For example:
# cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
#### all functions enabled ####
# echo bad_name > set_ftrace_filter
# cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
# echo function > current_tracer
# cat trace
# tracer: nop
#
# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | | |
This patch changes that to only enable filtering if a function
is set to be filtered on. Now, the filter is not enabled if
a bad name is echoed into set_ftrace_filter.
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
This patch adds a "command" syntax to the function filtering files:
/debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
/debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_notrace
Of the format: <function>:<command>:<parameter>
The command is optional, and dependent on the command, so are
the parameters.
echo do_fork > set_ftrace_filter
Will only trace 'do_fork'.
echo 'sched_*' > set_ftrace_filter
Will only trace functions starting with the letters 'sched_'.
echo '*:mod:ext3' > set_ftrace_filter
Will trace only the ext3 module functions.
echo '*write*:mod:ext3' > set_ftrace_notrace
Will prevent the ext3 functions with the letters 'write' in
the name from being traced.
echo '!*_allocate:mod:ext3' > set_ftrace_filter
Will remove the functions in ext3 that end with the letters
'_allocate' from the ftrace filter.
Although this patch implements the 'command' format, only the
'mod' command is supported. More commands to follow.

Impact: clean up
ftrace_match_records does a lot of things that other features
can use. This patch breaks up ftrace_match_records and pulls
out ftrace_setup_glob and ftrace_match_record.
ftrace_setup_glob prepares a simple glob expression for use with
ftrace_match_record. ftrace_match_record compares a single record
with a glob type.
Breaking this up will allow for more features to run on individual
records.
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
Impact: clean up
ftrace_match is too generic of a name. What it really does is
search all records and matches the records with the given string,
and either sets or unsets the functions to be traced depending
on if the parameter 'enable' is set or not.
This allows us to make another function called ftrace_match that
can be used to test a single record.
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
Impact: clean up
To iterate over all the functions that dynamic trace knows about
it requires two for loops. One to iterate over the pages and the
other to iterate over the records within the page.
There are several duplications of these loops in ftrace.c. This
patch creates the macros do_for_each_ftrace_rec and
while_for_each_ftrace_rec to handle this logic, and removes the
duplicate code.
While making this change, I also discovered and fixed a small
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
from. No real harm was done by this bug since it would only continue
to search the other records, and the code was in a slow path anyway.

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
it's tracing disabled for the current task (the one that performs the
hibernation work) while suspend/resume to disk, making the tracing safe
during hibernation.

Impact: enhancement
Ingo Molnar has asked about a way to remove items from the filter
lists. Currently, you can only add or replace items. The way
items are added to the list is through opening one of the list
files (set_ftrace_filter or set_ftrace_notrace) via append.
If the file is opened for truncate, the list is cleared.
echo spin_lock > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
The above will replace the list with only spin_lock
echo spin_lock >> /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
The above will add spin_lock to the list.
Now this patch adds:
echo '!spin_lock' >> /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
This will remove spin_lock from the list.
The limited glob features of these lists also can be notted.
echo '!spin_*' >> /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
This will remove all functions that start with 'spin_'
Note:
echo '!spin_*' > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
will simply clear out the list (notice the '>' instead of '>>')

Impact: Provide a way to pause the function graph tracer
As suggested by Steven Rostedt, the previous patch that prevented from

adds a new flag for each task to make the function graph tracer able
to be paused. We also can send an ftrace_printk whithout worrying of

This patch adds the file:
/debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function
which can be used along with the function graph tracer.
When this file is empty, the function graph tracer will act as
usual. When the file has a function in it, the function graph
tracer will only trace that function.
For example:
# echo blk_unplug > /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function
# cat /debugfs/tracing/trace
[...]
------------------------------------------
| 2) make-19003 => kjournald-2219
------------------------------------------
2) | blk_unplug() {
2) | dm_unplug_all() {
2) | dm_get_table() {
2) 1.381 us | _read_lock();
2) 0.911 us | dm_table_get();
2) 1. 76 us | _read_unlock();
2) + 12.912 us | }
2) | dm_table_unplug_all() {
2) | blk_unplug() {
2) 0.778 us | generic_unplug_device();
2) 2.409 us | }
2) 5.992 us | }
2) 0.813 us | dm_table_put();
2) + 29. 90 us | }
2) + 34.532 us | }
You can add up to 32 functions into this file. Currently we limit it
to 32, but this may change with later improvements.
To add another function, use the append '>>':
# echo sys_read >> /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function
# cat /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function
blk_unplug
sys_read
Using the '>' will clear out the function and write anew:
# echo sys_write > /debug/tracing/set_graph_function
# cat /debug/tracing/set_graph_function
sys_write
Note, if you have function graph running while doing this, the small
time between clearing it and updating it will cause the graph to
record all functions. This should not be an issue because after
it sets the filter, only those functions will be recorded from then on.
If you need to only record a particular function then set this
file first before starting the function graph tracer. In the future
this side effect may be corrected.
The set_graph_function file is similar to the set_ftrace_filter but
it does not take wild cards nor does it allow for more than one
function to be set with a single write. There is no technical reason why
this is the case, I just do not have the time yet to implement that.
Note, dynamic ftrace must be enabled for this to appear because it
uses the dynamic ftrace records to match the name to the mcount
call sites.

Impact: new ftrace_graph_stop function
While developing more features of function graph, I hit a bug that
caused the WARN_ON to trigger in the prepare_ftrace_return function.
Well, it was hard for me to find out that was happening because the
bug would not print, it would just cause a hard lockup or reboot.
The reason is that it is not safe to call printk from this function.
Looking further, I also found that it calls unregister_ftrace_graph,
which grabs a mutex and calls kstop machine. This would definitely
lock the box up if it were to trigger.
This patch adds a fast and safe ftrace_graph_stop() which will
stop the function tracer. Then it is safe to call the WARN ON.

Impact: extend and enable the function graph tracer to 64-bit x86
This patch implements the support for function graph tracer under x86-64.
Both static and dynamic tracing are supported.
This causes some small CPP conditional asm on arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c I
wanted to use probe_kernel_read/write to make the return address
saving/patching code more generic but it causes tracing recursion.
That would be perhaps useful to implement a notrace version of these
function for other archs ports.
Note that arch/x86/process_64.c is not traced, as in X86-32. I first
thought __switch_to() was responsible of crashes during tracing because I
believed current task were changed inside but that's actually not the
case (actually yes, but not the "current" pointer).
So I will have to investigate to find the functions that harm here, to
enable tracing of the other functions inside (but there is no issue at
this time, while process_64.c stays out of -pg flags).
A little possible race condition is fixed inside this patch too. When the
tracer allocate a return stack dynamically, the current depth is not
initialized before but after. An interrupt could occur at this time and,
after seeing that the return stack is allocated, the tracer could try to
trace it with a random uninitialized depth. It's a prevention, even if I
hadn't problems with it.

Impact: feature
This patch sets a C-like output for the function graph tracing.
For this aim, we now call two handler for each function: one on the entry
and one other on return. This way we can draw a well-ordered call stack.
The pid of the previous trace is loosely stored to be compared against
the one of the current trace to see if there were a context switch.
Without this little feature, the call tree would seem broken at
some locations.
We could use the sched_tracer to capture these sched_events but this
way of processing is much more simpler.
2 spaces have been chosen for indentation to fit the screen while deep
calls. The time of execution in nanosecs is printed just after closed
braces, it seems more easy this way to find the corresponding function.
If the time was printed as a first column, it would be not so easy to
find the corresponding function if it is called on a deep depth.
I plan to output the return value but on 32 bits CPU, the return value
can be 32 or 64, and its difficult to guess on which case we are.
I don't know what would be the better solution on X86-32: only print
eax (low-part) or even edx (high-part).
Actually it's thee same problem when a function return a 8 bits value, the
high part of eax could contain junk values...

Impact: cleanup
This patch changes the name of the "return function tracer" into
function-graph-tracer which is a more suitable name for a tracing
which makes one able to retrieve the ordered call stack during
the code flow.

Impact: use deeper function tracing depth safely
Some tests showed that function return tracing needed a more deeper depth
of function calls. But it could be unsafe to store these return addresses
to the stack.
So these arrays will now be allocated dynamically into task_struct of current
only when the tracer is activated.
Typical scheme when tracer is activated:
- allocate a return stack for each task in global list.
- fork: allocate the return stack for the newly created task
- exit: free return stack of current
- idle init: same as fork
I chose a default depth of 50. I don't have overruns anymore.

Impact: make output of available_filter_functions complete
phenomenon:
The first value of dyn_ftrace_total_info is not equal with
`cat available_filter_functions | wc -l`, but they should be equal.
root cause:
When printing functions with seq_printf in t_show, if the read buffer
is just overflowed by current function record, then this function
won't be printed to user space through read buffer, it will
just be dropped. So we can't see this function printing.
So, every time the last function to fill the read buffer, if overflowed,
will be dropped.
This also applies to set_ftrace_filter if set_ftrace_filter has
more bytes than read buffer.
fix:
Through checking return value of seq_printf, if less than 0, we know
this function doesn't be printed. Then we decrease position to force
this function to be printed next time, in next read buffer.
Another little fix is to show correct allocating pages count.

This patch adds the support for dynamic tracing on the function return tracer.
The whole difference with normal dynamic function tracing is that we don't need
to hook on a particular callback. The only pro that we want is to nop or set
dynamically the calls to ftrace_caller (which is ftrace_return_caller here).
Some security checks ensure that we are not trying to launch dynamic tracing for
return tracing while normal function tracing is already running.
An example of trace with getnstimeofday set as a filter:
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (2283 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1396 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1382 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1825 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1426 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1464 ns)

Impact: set filtered functions at time the filter is set
It can be confusing when the set_filter_functions is set (or cleared)
and the functions being recorded by the dynamic tracer does not
match.
This patch causes the code to be updated if the function tracer is
enabled and the filter is changed.

Impact: correct implementation of dyn ftrace filter
The old decisions made by the filter algorithm was complex and incorrect.
This lead to inconsistent enabling or disabling of functions when
the filter was used.
This patch simplifies that code and in doing so, corrects the usage
of the filters.
