2010-02-26ftrace: Add function names to dangling } in function graph tracerSteven Rostedt
The function graph tracer is currently the most invasive tracer in the ftrace family. It can easily overflow the buffer even with 10megs per CPU. This means that events can often be lost. On start up, or after events are lost, if the function return is recorded but the function enter was lost, all we get to see is the exiting '}'. Here is how a typical trace output starts: [tracing] cat trace # tracer: function_graph # # CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS # | | | | | | | 0) + 91.897 us | } 0) ! 567.961 us | } 0) <========== | 0) ! 579.083 us | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave(); 0) 4.694 us | _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(); 0) ! 594.862 us | } 0) ! 603.361 us | } 0) ! 613.574 us | } 0) ! 623.554 us | } 0) 3.653 us | fget_light(); 0) | sock_poll() { There are a series of '}' with no matching "func() {". There's no information to what functions these ending brackets belong to. This patch adds a stack on the per cpu structure used in outputting the function graph tracer to keep track of what function was outputted. Then on a function exit event, it checks the depth to see if the function exit has a matching entry event. If it does, then it only prints the '}', otherwise it adds the function name after the '}'. This allows function exit events to show what function they belong to at trace output startup, when the entry was lost due to ring buffer overflow, or even after a new task is scheduled in. Here is what the above trace will look like after this patch: [tracing] cat trace # tracer: function_graph # # CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS # | | | | | | | 0) + 91.897 us | } (irq_exit) 0) ! 567.961 us | } (smp_apic_timer_interrupt) 0) <========== | 0) ! 579.083 us | _raw_spin_lock_irqsave(); 0) 4.694 us | _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore(); 0) ! 594.862 us | } (add_wait_queue) 0) ! 603.361 us | } (__pollwait) 0) ! 613.574 us | } (tcp_poll) 0) ! 623.554 us | } (sock_poll) 0) 3.653 us | fget_light(); 0) | sock_poll() { Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2010-02-26PM / Hibernate: Fix preallocating of memoryRafael J. Wysocki
The hibernate memory preallocation code allocates memory to push some user space data out of physical RAM, so that the hibernation image is not too large. It allocates more memory than necessary for creating the image, so it has to release some pages to make room for allocations made while suspending devices and disabling nonboot CPUs, or the system will hang due to the lack of free pages to allocate from. Unfortunately, the function used for freeing these pages, free_unnecessary_pages(), contains a bug that prevents it from doing the job on all systems without highmem. Fix this problem, which is a regression from the 2.6.30 kernel, by using the right condition for the termination of the loop in free_unnecessary_pages(). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2010-02-25tracing: Fix ftrace_event_call alignment for use with gcc 4.5Jeff Mahoney
GCC 4.5 introduces behavior that forces the alignment of structures to use the largest possible value. The default value is 32 bytes, so if some structures are defined with a 4-byte alignment and others aren't declared with an alignment constraint at all - it will align at 32-bytes. For things like the ftrace events, this results in a non-standard array. When initializing the ftrace subsystem, we traverse the _ftrace_events section and call the initialization callback for each event. When the structures are misaligned, we could be treating another part of the structure (or the zeroed out space between them) as a function pointer. This patch forces the alignment for all the ftrace_event_call structures to 4 bytes. Without this patch, the kernel fails to boot very early when built with gcc 4.5. It's trivial to check the alignment of the members of the array, so it might be worthwhile to add something to the build system to do that automatically. Unfortunately, that only covers this case. I've asked one of the gcc developers about adding a warning when this condition is seen.

2010-02-25rcu: Accelerate grace period if last non-dynticked CPUPaul E. McKenney
Currently, rcu_needs_cpu() simply checks whether the current CPU has an outstanding RCU callback, which means that the last CPU to go into dyntick-idle mode might wait a few ticks for the relevant grace periods to complete. However, if all the other CPUs are in dyntick-idle mode, and if this CPU is in a quiescent state (which it is for RCU-bh and RCU-sched any time that we are considering going into dyntick-idle mode), then the grace period is instantly complete. This patch therefore repeatedly invokes the RCU grace-period machinery in order to force any needed grace periods to complete quickly. It does so a limited number of times in order to prevent starvation by an RCU callback function that might pass itself to call_rcu(). However, if any CPU other than the current one is not in dyntick-idle mode, fall back to simply checking (with fix to bug noted by Lai Jiangshan). Also, take advantage of last grace-period forcing, the opportunity to do so noted by Steve Rostedt. And apply simplified #ifdef condition suggested by Frederic Weisbecker. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

As suggested by Peter Ziljstra, make better choice of name for for_each_domain_rd(), containing "rcu_dereference", given that it is but a wrapper for rcu_dereference_check(). The name rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() does that and provides a separate per-subsystem name space. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2010-02-25rcu: Introduce lockdep-based checking to RCU read-side primitivesPaul E. McKenney
Inspection is proving insufficient to catch all RCU misuses, which is understandable given that rcu_dereference() might be protected by any of four different flavors of RCU (RCU, RCU-bh, RCU-sched, and SRCU), and might also/instead be protected by any of a number of locking primitives. It is therefore time to enlist the aid of lockdep. This set of patches is inspired by earlier work by Peter Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner, and takes the following approach: o Set up separate lockdep classes for RCU, RCU-bh, and RCU-sched. o Set up separate lockdep classes for each instance of SRCU. o Create primitives that check for being in an RCU read-side critical section. These return exact answers if lockdep is fully enabled, but if unsure, report being in an RCU read-side critical section. (We want to avoid false positives!) The primitives are: For RCU: rcu_read_lock_held(void) For RCU-bh: rcu_read_lock_bh_held(void) For RCU-sched: rcu_read_lock_sched_held(void) For SRCU: srcu_read_lock_held(struct srcu_struct *sp) o Add rcu_dereference_check(), which takes a second argument in which one places a boolean expression based on the above primitives and/or lockdep_is_held(). o A new kernel configuration parameter, CONFIG_PROVE_RCU, enables rcu_dereference_check(). This depends on CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, and should be quite helpful during the transition period while CONFIG_PROVE_RCU-unaware patches are in flight. The existing rcu_dereference() primitive does no checking, but upcoming patches will change that. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
