2011-03-03blktrace: Remove blk_fill_rwbs_rq.Tao Ma
If we enable trace events to trace block actions, We use blk_fill_rwbs_rq to analyze the corresponding actions in request's cmd_flags, but we only choose the minor 2 bits from it, so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing. For example, with a sync write we get: write_test-2409 [001] 160.013869: block_rq_insert: 3,64 W 0 () 258135 + = 8 [write_test] Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request, it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to blk_fill_rwbs and blk_fill_rwbs_rq isn't needed any more. With this patch, after a sync write we get: write_test-2417 [000] 226.603878: block_rq_insert: 3,64 WS 0 () 258135 += 8 [write_test] Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Acked-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-02-03tracing: Replace syscall_meta_data struct array with pointer arraySteven Rostedt
Currently the syscall_meta structures for the syscall tracepoints are placed in the __syscall_metadata section, and at link time, the linker makes one large array of all these syscall metadata structures. On boot up, this array is read (much like the initcall sections) and the syscall data is processed. The problem is that there is no guarantee that gcc will place complex structures nicely together in an array format. Two structures in the same file may be placed awkwardly, because gcc has no clue that they are suppose to be in an array. A hack was used previous to force the alignment to 4, to pack the structures together. But this caused alignment issues with other architectures (sparc). Instead of packing the structures into an array, the structures' addresses are now put into the __syscall_metadata section. As pointers are always the natural alignment, gcc should always pack them tightly together (otherwise initcall, extable, etc would also fail). By having the pointers to the structures in the section, we can still iterate the trace_events without causing unnecessary alignment problems with other architectures, or depending on the current behaviour of gcc that will likely change in the future just to tick us kernel developers off a little more. The __syscall_metadata section is also moved into the .init.data section as it is now only needed at boot up. Suggested-by: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: David S.

2011-01-20lockdep: Move early boot local IRQ enable/disable status to init/main.cTejun Heo
During early boot, local IRQ is disabled until IRQ subsystem is properly initialized. During this time, no one should enable local IRQ and some operations which usually are not allowed with IRQ disabled, e.g. operations which might sleep or require communications with other processors, are allowed. lockdep tracked this with early_boot_irqs_off/on() callbacks. As other subsystems need this information too, move it to init/main.c and make it generally available. While at it, toggle the boolean to early_boot_irqs_disabled instead of enabled so that it can be initialized with %false and %true indicates the exceptional condition.

2011-01-19blktrace: Don't output messages if NOTIFY isn't set.Tao Ma

2011-01-14tracing: Remove syscall_exit_fieldsLai Jiangshan
There is no need for syscall_exit_fields as the syscall exit event class can already host the fields in its structure, like most other trace events do by default. Use that default behavior instead. Following this scheme, we don't need anymore to override the get_fields() callback of the syscall exit event class either. Hence both syscall_exit_fields and syscall_get_exit_fields() can be removed.

2010-12-23ring_buffer: Off-by-one and duplicate events in ring_buffer_read_pageDavid Sharp
Fix two related problems in the event-copying loop of ring_buffer_read_page. The loop condition for copying events is off-by-one. "len" is the remaining space in the caller-supplied page. "size" is the size of the next event (or two events). If len == size, then there is just enough space for the next event. size was set to rb_event_ts_length, which may include the size of two events if the first event is a time-extend, in order to assure time- extends are kept together with the event after it. However, rb_advance_reader always advances by one event. This would result in the event after any time-extend being duplicated. Instead, get the size of a single event for the memcpy, but use rb_event_ts_length for the loop condition.

2010-11-30tracing: Fix panic when lseek() called on "trace" opened for writingSlava Pestov
The file_ops struct for the "trace" special file defined llseek as seq_lseek(). However, if the file was opened for writing only, seq_open() was not called, and the seek would dereference a null pointer, file->private_data. This patch introduces a new wrapper for seq_lseek() which checks if the file descriptor is opened for reading first. If not, it does nothing.

2010-11-19tracing/events: Show real number in array fieldsSteven Rostedt
Currently we have in something like the sched_switch event: field:char prev_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1; When a userspace tool such as perf tries to parse this, the TASK_COMM_LEN is meaningless. This is done because the TRACE_EVENT() macro simply uses a #len to show the string of the length. When the length is an enum, we get a string that means nothing for tools. By adding a static buffer and a mutex to protect it, we can store the string into that buffer with snprintf and show the actual number. Now we get: field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1; Something much more useful. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

This adds a new trace event internal flag that allows them to be used in perf by non privileged users in case of task bound tracing. This is desired for syscalls tracepoint because they don't leak global system informations, like some other tracepoints.

2010-11-13tracing: Fix recursive user stack traceSteven Rostedt
The user stack trace can fault when examining the trace. Which would call the do_page_fault handler, which would trace again, which would do the user stack trace, which would fault and call do_page_fault again ... Thus this is causing a recursive bug. We need to have a recursion detector here.

2010-11-10block: remove REQ_HARDBARRIERChristoph Hellwig
REQ_HARDBARRIER is dead now, so remove the leftovers. What's left at this point is: - various checks inside the block layer. - sanity checks in bio based drivers. - now unused bio_empty_barrier helper. - Xen blockfront use of BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER - it's dead for a while, but Xen really needs to sort out it's barrier situaton. - setting of ordered tags in uas - dead code copied from old scsi drivers. - scsi different retry for barriers - it's dead and should have been removed when flushes were converted to FS requests. - blktrace handling of barriers - removed. Someone who knows blktrace better should add support for REQ_FLUSH and REQ_FUA, though. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

s390 doesn't need FRAME_POINTERS in order to have a working function tracer.
