Steven Rostedt [Fri, 15 Jul 2011 03:02:27 +0000 (23:02 -0400)]
ftrace: Fix regression where ftrace breaks when modules are loaded

Enabling function tracer to trace all functions, then load a module and
then disable function tracing will cause ftrace to fail.

This can also happen by enabling function tracing on the command line:

  ftrace=function

and during boot up, modules are loaded, then you disable function tracing
with 'echo nop > current_tracer' you will trigger a bug in ftrace that
will shut itself down.

The reason is, the new ftrace code keeps ref counts of all ftrace_ops that
are registered for tracing. When one or more ftrace_ops are registered,
all the records that represent the functions that the ftrace_ops will
trace have a ref count incremented. If this ref count is not zero,
when the code modification runs, that function will be enabled for tracing.
If the ref count is zero, that function will be disabled from tracing.

To make sure the accounting was working, FTRACE_WARN_ON()s were added
to updating of the ref counts.

If the ref count hits its max (> 2^30 ftrace_ops added), or if
the ref count goes below zero, a FTRACE_WARN_ON() is triggered which
disables all modification of code.

Since it is common for ftrace_ops to trace all functions in the kernel,
instead of creating > 20,000 hash items for the ftrace_ops, the hash
count is just set to zero, and it represents that the ftrace_ops is
to trace all functions. This is where the issues arrise.

If you enable function tracing to trace all functions, and then add
a module, the modules function records do not get the ref count updated.
When the function tracer is disabled, all function records ref counts
are subtracted. Since the modules never had their ref counts incremented,
they go below zero and the FTRACE_WARN_ON() is triggered.

The solution to this is rather simple. When modules are loaded, and
their functions are added to the the ftrace pool, look to see if any
ftrace_ops are registered that trace all functions. And for those,
update the ref count for the module function records.

13 years agoftrace: Fix dynamic selftest failure on some archs
Steven Rostedt [Wed, 13 Jul 2011 19:11:02 +0000 (15:11 -0400)]
ftrace: Fix dynamic selftest failure on some archs

Archs that do not implement CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST, will
fail the dynamic ftrace selftest.

The function tracer has a quick 'off' variable that will prevent
the call back functions from being called. This variable is called
function_trace_stop. In x86, this is implemented directly in the mcount
assembly, but for other archs, an intermediate function is used called
ftrace_test_stop_func().

In dynamic ftrace, the function pointer variable ftrace_trace_function is
used to update the caller code in the mcount caller. But for archs that
do not have CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST set, it only calls
ftrace_test_stop_func() instead, which in turn calls __ftrace_trace_function.

When more than one ftrace_ops is registered, the function it calls is
ftrace_ops_list_func(), which will iterate over all registered ftrace_ops
and call the callbacks that have their hash matching.

The issue happens when two ftrace_ops are registered for different functions
and one is then unregistered. The __ftrace_trace_function is then pointed
to the remaining ftrace_ops callback function directly. This mean it will
be called for all functions that were registered to trace by both ftrace_ops
that were registered.

This is not an issue for archs with CONFIG_HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST,
because the update of ftrace_trace_function doesn't happen until after all
functions have been updated, and then the mcount caller is updated. But
for those archs that do use the ftrace_test_stop_func(), the update is
immediate.

The dynamic selftest fails because it hits this situation, and the
ftrace_ops that it registers fails to only trace what it was suppose to
and instead traces all other functions.

The solution is to delay the setting of __ftrace_trace_function until
after all the functions have been updated according to the registered
ftrace_ops. Also, function_trace_stop is set during the update to prevent
function tracing from calling code that is caused by the function tracer
itself.

ftrace: Balance records when updating the hash

Whenever the hash of the ftrace_ops is updated, the record counts

in the original hash, and then enabling the records that are set
in the updated hash.

Moving the update into ftrace_hash_move() removes the bug where the
hash was updated but the records were not, which results in ftrace
triggering a warning and disabling itself because the ftrace_ops filter
is updated while the ftrace_ops was registered, and then the failure
happens when the ftrace_ops is unregistered.

The "enable" file for the event system can be removed when a module

As the event system nr_events count goes to zero, it may be freed

Although the "filter" file referenced the event system structure,
the "enable" file only references a pointer to the event system
name. Since the name is freed when the event system is removed,
it is possible that an access to the "enable" file may reference
a freed pointer.

the "filter" file uses, to keep a reference to the event system

The event system is freed when its nr_events is set to zero. This happens
when a module created an event system and then later the module is

it is created and freed when the modules are unloaded and all the

The problem arises when a task opened the "filter" file for the

perf report/annotate/script: Add option to specify a CPU range

Add an option to perf report/annotate/script to specify which
CPUs to operate on. This enables us to take a single system wide
profile and analyse each CPU (or group of CPUs) in isolation.

This was useful when profiling a multiprocess workload where the
bottleneck was on one CPU but this was hidden in the overall
profile. Per process and per thread breakdowns didn't help
because multiple processes were running on each CPU and no
single process consumed an entire CPU.

The patch converts the list of CPUs returned by cpu_map__new
into a bitmap for fast lookup. I wanted to use -C to be
consistent with perf top/record/stat, but unfortunately perf

13 years agox86: Don't use frame pointer to save old stack on irq entry
Frederic Weisbecker [Sat, 2 Jul 2011 14:52:45 +0000 (16:52 +0200)]
x86: Don't use frame pointer to save old stack on irq entry

rbp is used in SAVE_ARGS_IRQ to save the old stack pointer
in order to restore it later in ret_from_intr.

It is convenient because we save its value in the irq regs
and it's easily restored using the leave instruction.

However this is a kind of abuse of the frame pointer which
role is to help unwinding the kernel by chaining frames
together, each node following the return address to the
previous frame.

But although we are breaking the frame by changing the stack
pointer, there is no preceding return address before the new
frame. Hence using the frame pointer to link the two stacks
breaks the stack unwinders that find a random value instead of
a return address here.

There is no workaround that can work in every case. We are using
the fixup_bp_irq_link() function to dereference that abused frame
pointer in the case of non nesting interrupt (which means stack
changed).
But that doesn't fix the case of interrupts that don't change the
stack (but we still have the unconditional frame link), which is
the case of hardirq interrupting softirq. We have no way to detect
this transition so the frame irq link is considered as a real frame
pointer and the return address is dereferenced but it is still a
spurious one.

There are two possible results of this: either the spurious return
address, a random stack value, luckily belongs to the kernel text
and then the unwinding can continue and we just have a weird entry
in the stack trace. Or it doesn't belong to the kernel text and
unwinding stops there.

This is the reason why stacktraces (including perf callchains) on
irqs that interrupted softirqs don't work very well.

To solve this, we don't save the old stack pointer on rbp anymore
but we save it to a scratch register that we push on the new
stack and that we pop back later on irq return.

This preserves the whole frame chain without spurious return addresses
in the middle and drops the need for the horrid fixup_bp_irq_link()
workaround.

And finally irqs that interrupt softirq are sanely unwinded.

this series.

Furthermore on Sandy Bridge, the offcore_response events have NO

the perf_buffer_init_code() has been mis-setting the buffer watermark

This commit re-enables the check for perf_event_attr.watermark being

This bug is most noticable when you are trying to use PERF_IOC_REFRESH
with a value larger than one and perf_event_attr.wakeup_events is set to
one.  In this case the buffer watermark will be set to 1 and you will
get extraneous POLL_IN overflows rather than POLL_HUP as expected.

memcg: fix direct softlimit reclaim to be called in limit path

Commit d149e3b25d7c ("memcg: add the soft_limit reclaim in global direct
reclaim") adds a softlimit hook to shrink_zones().  By this, soft limit
is called as

   try_to_free_pages()
       do_try_to_free_pages()
           shrink_zones()
               mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim()

Then, direct reclaim is memcg softlimit hint aware, now.

But, the memory cgroup's "limit" path can call softlimit shrinker.

   try_to_free_mem_cgroup_pages()
       do_try_to_free_pages()
           shrink_zones()
               mem_cgroup_soft_limit_reclaim()

This will cause a global reclaim when a memcg hits limit.

This is bug. soft_limit_reclaim() should be called when
scanning_global_lru(sc) == true.

And the commit adds a variable "total_scanned" for counting softlimit
scanned pages....it's not "total".  This patch removes the variable and
update sc->nr_scanned instead of it.  This will affect shrink_slab()'s
scan condition but, global LRU is scanned by softlimit and I think this
change makes sense.

TODO: avoid too much scanning of a zone when softlimit did enough work.

taskstats: don't allow duplicate entries in listener mode

Currently a single process may register exit handlers unlimited times.
It may lead to a bloated listeners chain and very slow process
terminations.

Eg after 10KK sent TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_REGISTER_CPUMASKs ~300 Mb of
kernel memory is stolen for the handlers chain and "time id" shows 2-7
seconds instead of normal 0.003.  It makes it possible to exhaust all
kernel memory and to eat much of CPU time by triggerring numerous exits
on a single CPU.

The patch limits the number of times a single process may register
itself on a single CPU to one.

One little issue is kept unfixed - as taskstats_exit() is called before
exit_files() in do_exit(), the orphaned listener entry (if it was not
explicitly deregistered) is kept until the next someone's exit() and
implicit deregistration in send_cpu_listeners().  So, if a process
registered itself as a listener exits and the next spawned process gets
the same pid, it would inherit taskstats attributes.

tmpfs: add shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp

Although it is used (by i915) on nothing but tmpfs, read_cache_page_gfp()
is unsuited to tmpfs, because it inserts a page into pagecache before
calling the filesystem's ->readpage: tmpfs may have pages in swapcache
which only it knows how to locate and switch to filecache.

At present tmpfs provides a ->readpage method, and copes with this by
copying pages; but soon we can simplify it by removing its ->readpage.
Provide shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() now, ready for that transition,

Export shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() and add it to list in shmem_fs.h,
with shmem_read_mapping_page() inline for the common mapping_gfp case.

(shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp or shmem_read_cache_page_gfp? Generally the
read_mapping_page functions use the mapping's ->readpage, and the
read_cache_page functions use the supplied filler, so I think
read_cache_page_gfp was slightly misnamed.)

13 years agotmpfs: take control of its truncate_range
Hugh Dickins [Mon, 27 Jun 2011 23:18:03 +0000 (16:18 -0700)]
tmpfs: take control of its truncate_range

2.6.35's new truncate convention gave tmpfs the opportunity to control
its file truncation, no longer enforced from outside by vmtruncate().
We shall want to build upon that, to handle pagecache and swap together.

Slightly redefine the ->truncate_range interface: let it now be called
between the unmap_mapping_range()s, with the filesystem responsible for
doing the truncate_inode_pages_range() from it - just as the filesystem
is nowadays responsible for doing that from its ->setattr.

Let's rename shmem_notify_change() to shmem_setattr().  Instead of
calling the generic truncate_setsize(), bring that code in so we can
call shmem_truncate_range() - which will later be updated to perform its
own variant of truncate_inode_pages_range().

Remove the punch_hole unmap_mapping_range() from shmem_truncate_range():
now that the COW's unmap_mapping_range() comes after ->truncate_range,
there is no need to call it a third time.

Export shmem_truncate_range() and add it to the list in shmem_fs.h, so
that i915_gem_object_truncate() can call it explicitly in future; get
this patch in first, then update drm/i915 once this is available (until
then, i915 will just be doing the truncate_inode_pages() twice).

Though introduced five years ago, no other filesystem is implementing
->truncate_range, and its only other user is madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE): we
expect to convert it to fallocate(,FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE,,) shortly,
whereupon ->truncate_range can be removed from inode_operations -
shmem_truncate_range() will help i915 across that transition too.

13 years agomm: move shmem prototypes to shmem_fs.h

mm: move shmem prototypes to shmem_fs.h

Before adding any more global entry points into shmem.c, gather such
prototypes into shmem_fs.h.  Remove mm's own declarations from swap.h,
but for now leave the ones in mm.h: because shmem_file_setup() and
shmem_zero_setup() are called from various places, and we should not
force other subsystems to update immediately.
