From 490362003457f8d387f6f6e73e3a7efbf56c3314 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2009 22:38:58 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tracing/ftrace: stop {irqs, preempt}soff tracers when tracing is stopped Impact: fix a selftest warning In some cases, it's possible to see the following warning on irqsoff tracer selftest: [ 4.640003] Testing tracer irqsoff: <4>------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 4.653562] WARNING: at kernel/trace/trace.c:458 update_max_tr_single+0x9a/0xc4() [ 4.660000] Hardware name: System Product Name [ 4.660000] Modules linked in: [ 4.660000] Pid: 301, comm: kstop/1 Not tainted 2.6.29-rc8-tip #35837 [ 4.660000] Call Trace: [ 4.660000] [<4014b588>] warn_slowpath+0x79/0x8f [ 4.660000] [<402d6949>] ? put_dec+0x64/0x6b [ 4.660000] [<40162b56>] ? getnstimeofday+0x58/0xdd [ 4.660000] [<40162210>] ? clocksource_read+0x3/0xf [ 4.660000] [<4015eb44>] ? ktime_set+0x8/0x34 [ 4.660000] [<4014101a>] ? balance_runtime+0x8/0x56 [ 4.660000] [<405f6f11>] ? _spin_lock+0x3/0x10 [ 4.660000] [<4011f643>] ? ftrace_call+0x5/0x8 [ 4.660000] [<4015d0f1>] ? task_cputime_zero+0x3/0x27 [ 4.660000] [<40190ee7>] ? cpupri_set+0x90/0xcb [ 4.660000] [<405f7208>] ? _spin_lock_irqsave+0x22/0x34 [ 4.660000] [<40190f12>] ? cpupri_set+0xbb/0xcb [ 4.660000] [<405f7151>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x23/0x35 [ 4.660000] [<4018493f>] ? ring_buffer_reset_cpu+0x27/0x51 [ 4.660000] [<405f7208>] ? _spin_lock_irqsave+0x22/0x34 [ 4.660000] [<40184962>] ? ring_buffer_reset_cpu+0x4a/0x51 [ 4.660000] [<405f7151>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x23/0x35 [ 4.660000] [<4018cc29>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0x1a/0x1c [ 4.660000] [<405f7151>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x23/0x35 [ 4.660000] [<40184962>] ? ring_buffer_reset_cpu+0x4a/0x51 [ 4.660000] [<401850f3>] ? cpumask_next+0x15/0x18 [ 4.660000] [<4018a41f>] update_max_tr_single+0x9a/0xc4 [ 4.660000] [<4014e5fe>] ? exit_notify+0x16/0xf2 [ 4.660000] [<4018cd13>] check_critical_timing+0xcc/0x11e [ 4.660000] [<4014e5fe>] ? exit_notify+0x16/0xf2 [ 4.660000] [<4014e5fe>] ? exit_notify+0x16/0xf2 [ 4.660000] [<4018cdf1>] stop_critical_timing+0x8c/0x9f [ 4.660000] [<4014e5c4>] ? forget_original_parent+0xac/0xd0 [ 4.660000] [<4018ce3a>] trace_hardirqs_on+0x1a/0x1c [ 4.660000] [<4014e5c4>] forget_original_parent+0xac/0xd0 [ 4.660000] [<4014e5fe>] exit_notify+0x16/0xf2 [ 4.660000] [<4014e8a5>] do_exit+0x1cb/0x225 [ 4.660000] [<4015c72b>] ? kthread+0x0/0x69 [ 4.660000] [<4011f61d>] kernel_thread_helper+0xd/0x10 [ 4.660000] ---[ end trace a7919e7f17c0a725 ]--- [ 4.660164] .. no entries found ..FAILED! During the selftest of irqsoff tracer, we do that: /* disable interrupts for a bit */ local_irq_disable(); udelay(100); local_irq_enable(); /* stop the tracing. */ tracing_stop(); /* check both trace buffers */ ret = trace_test_buffer(tr, NULL); If a callsite performs a new max delay with irqs off just after tracing_stop, update_max_tr_single() -> ring_buffer_swap_cpu() will be called with the buffers disabled by tracing_stop(), hence the warning, then ring_buffer_swap_cpu() return -EAGAIN and update_max_tr_single() complains. Fix it by also stopping the tracer before stopping the tracing globally. A similar situation can happen with preemptoff and preemptirqsoff tracers where we apply the same fix.
