13 years agoftrace: Add internal recursive checks
Steven Rostedt [Wed, 25 May 2011 18:27:43 +0000 (14:27 -0400)]
ftrace: Add internal recursive checks

Witold reported a reboot caused by the selftests of the dynamic function
tracer. He sent me a config and I used ktest to do a config_bisect on it
(as my config did not cause the crash). It pointed out that the problem
config was CONFIG_PROVE_RCU.

What happened was that if multiple callbacks are attached to the
function tracer, we iterate a list of callbacks. Because the list is
managed by synchronize_sched() and preempt_disable, the access to the
pointers uses rcu_dereference_raw().

When PROVE_RCU is enabled, the rcu_dereference_raw() calls some
debugging functions, which happen to be traced. The tracing of the debug
function would then call rcu_dereference_raw() which would then call the
debug function and then... well you get the idea.

I first wrote two different patches to solve this bug.

1) add a __rcu_dereference_raw() that would not do any checks.
2) add notrace to the offending debug functions.

Both of these patches worked.

Talking with Paul McKenney on IRC, he suggested to add recursion
detection instead. This seemed to be a better solution, so I decided to
implement it. As the task_struct already has a trace_recursion to detect
recursion in the ring buffer, and that has a very small number it
allows, I decided to use that same variable to add flags that can detect
the recursion inside the infrastructure of the function tracer.

I plan to change it so that the task struct bit can be checked in
mcount, but as that requires changes to all archs, I will hold that off
to the next merge window.

13 years agoftrace/recordmcount: Avoid STT_FUNC symbols as base on ARM

ftrace/recordmcount: Avoid STT_FUNC symbols as base on ARM

While find_secsym_ndx often finds the unamed local STT_SECTION, if a
section has only one function in it, the ARM toolchain generates the
STT_FUNC symbol before the STT_SECTION, and recordmcount finds this
instead.

This is problematic on ARM because in ARM ELFs, "if a [STT_FUNC] symbol
addresses a Thumb instruction, its value is the address of the
instruction with bit zero set (in a relocatable object, the section
offset with bit zero set)".  This leads to incorrect mcount addresses
being recorded.

13 years agoextable, core_kernel_data(): Make sure all archs define _sdata

extable, core_kernel_data(): Make sure all archs define _sdata

A new utility function (core_kernel_data()) is used to determine if a
passed in address is part of core kernel data or not. It may or may not
return true for RO data, but this utility must work for RW data.

Thus both _sdata and _edata must be defined and continuous,
without .init sections that may later be freed and replaced by
volatile memory (memory that can be freed).

This utility function is used to determine if data is safe from
ever being freed. Thus it should return true for all RW global
data that is not in a module or has been allocated, or false
otherwise.

Also change core_kernel_data() back to the more precise _sdata condition
and document the function.

selinux: avoid unnecessary avc cache stat hit count

There is no point in counting hits - we can calculate it from the number

selinux: de-crapify avc cache stat code generation

You can turn off the avc cache stats, but distributions seem to not do
that (perhaps because several performance tuning how-to's talk about the
avc cache statistics).

Which is sad, because the code it generates is truly horrendous, with
the statistics update being sandwitched between get_cpu/put_cpu which in
turn causes preemption disables etc.  We're talking ten+ instructions
just to increment a per-cpu variable in some pretty hot code.

Fix the craziness by just using 'this_cpu_inc()' instead.  Suddenly we
only need a single 'inc' instruction to increment the statistics.  This
is quite noticeable in the incredibly hot avc_has_perm_noaudit()
function (which triggers all the statistics by virtue of doing an
avc_lookup() call).

Linus Torvalds [Thu, 19 May 2011 21:15:29 +0000 (14:15 -0700)]
list: remove prefetching from regular list iterators

This is removes the use of software prefetching from the regular list
iterators.  We don't want it.  If you do want to prefetch in some
iterator of yours, go right ahead.  Just don't expect the iterator to do
it, since normally the downsides are bigger than the upsides.

It also replaces <linux/prefetch.h> with <linux/const.h>, because the
use of LIST_POISON ends up needing it.  <linux/poison.h> is sadly not
self-contained, and including prefetch.h just happened to hide that.

Suggested by David Miller (networking has a lot of regular lists that
are often empty or a single entry, and prefetching is not going to do
anything but add useless instructions).

13 years agohlist: remove software prefetching in hlist iterators
Linus Torvalds [Thu, 19 May 2011 20:50:07 +0000 (13:50 -0700)]
hlist: remove software prefetching in hlist iterators

They not only increase the code footprint, they actually make things
slower rather than faster.  On internationally acclaimed benchmarks
("make -j16" on an already fully built kernel source tree) the hlist
prefetching slows down the build by up to 1%.

(Almost all of it comes from hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() as used by
avc_has_perm_noaudit(), which is very hot due to all the pathname
lookups to see if there is anything to do).

The cause seems to be two-fold:

 - on at least some Intel cores, prefetch(NULL) ends up with some
   microarchitectural stall due to the TLB miss that it incurs.  The
   hlist case triggers this very commonly, since the NULL pointer is the
   last entry in the list.

 - the prefetch appears to cause more D$ activity, probably because it
   prefetches hash list entries that are never actually used (because we
   ended the search early due to a hit).

Regardless, the numbers clearly say that the implicit prefetching is
simply a bad idea.  If some _particular_ user of the hlist iterators
wants to prefetch the next list entry, they can do so themselves
explicitly, rather than depend on all list iterators doing so
implicitly.

2. Then find_first_bit(bimap + 2, -1)

3. Unfortunately find_first_bit() takes unsigned int as the size argument.

4. find_first_bit will access bitmap[2~] until it find any set bits.
