2014-11-20tracing: Use trace_seq_used() and seq_buf_used() instead of lenSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-1/+19
As the seq_buf->len will soon be +1 size when there's an overflow, we must use trace_seq_used() or seq_buf_used() methods to get the real length. This will prevent buffer overflow issues if just the len of the seq_buf descriptor is used to copy memory.

2014-11-20tracing: Create seq_buf layer in trace_seqSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-7/+5
Create a seq_buf layer that trace_seq sits on. The seq_buf will not be limited to page size. This will allow other usages of seq_buf instead of a hard set PAGE_SIZE one that trace_seq has.

2014-11-19tracing: Remove return values of most trace_seq_*() functionsSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-22/+15
The trace_seq_printf() and friends are used to store strings into a buffer that can be passed around from function to function. If the trace_seq buffer fills up, it will not print any more. The return values were somewhat inconsistant and using trace_seq_has_overflowed() was a better way to know if the write to the trace_seq buffer succeeded or not. Now that all users have removed reading the return value of the printf() type functions, they can safely return void and keep future users of them from reading the inconsistent values as well.

2014-11-19tracing: Add trace_seq_has_overflowed() and trace_handle_return()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+12
Adding a trace_seq_has_overflowed() which returns true if the trace_seq had too much written into it allows us to simplify the code. Instead of checking the return value of every call to trace_seq_printf() and friends, they can all be called normally, and at the end we can return !trace_seq_has_overflowed() instead. Several functions also return TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE when the trace_seq overflowed and TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED otherwise. Another helper function was created called trace_handle_return() which takes a trace_seq and returns these enums. Using this helper function also simplifies the code. This change also makes it possible to remove the return values of trace_seq_printf() and friends. They should instead just be void functions.

2014-07-01tracing: Add trace_seq_buffer_ptr() helper functionSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+15
There's several locations in the kernel that open code the calculation of the next location in the trace_seq buffer. This is usually done with p->buffer + p->len Instead of having this open coded, supply a helper function in the header to do it for them. This function is called trace_seq_buffer_ptr().

2014-07-01tracing: Make trace_seq_putmem_hex() more robustSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-2/+0
Currently trace_seq_putmem_hex() can only take as a parameter a pointer to something that is 8 bytes or less, otherwise it will overflow the buffer. This is protected by a macro that encompasses the call to trace_seq_putmem_hex() that has a BUILD_BUG_ON() for the variable before it is passed in. This is not very robust and if trace_seq_putmem_hex() ever gets used outside that macro it will cause issues. Instead of only being able to produce a hex output of memory that is for a single word, change it to be more robust and allow any size input. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-07-01tracing: Clean up trace_seq.cSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-10/+10
For using trace_seq_*() functions in NMI context, I posted a patch to move it to the lib/ directory. This caused Andrew Morton to take a look at the code. He went through and gave a lot of comments about missing kernel doc, inconsistent types for the save variable, mix match of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() and EXPORT_SYMBOL() as well as missing EXPORT_SYMBOL*()s. There were a few comments about the way variables were being compared (int vs uint). All these were good review comments and should be implemented regardless of if trace_seq.c should be moved to lib/ or not. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-07-01tracing: Move the trace_seq_* functions into its own trace_seq.c fileSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+2
The trace_seq_*() functions are a nice utility that allows users to manipulate buffers with printf() like formats. It has its own trace_seq.h header in include/linux and should be in its own file. Being tied with trace_output.c is rather awkward. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2014-05-15tracing: Add __bitmask() macro to trace events to cpumasks and other bitmasksSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)1-0/+10
Being able to show a cpumask of events can be useful as some events may affect only some CPUs. There is no standard way to record the cpumask and converting it to a string is rather expensive during the trace as traces happen in hotpaths. It would be better to record the raw event mask and be able to parse it at print time. The following macros were added for use with the TRACE_EVENT() macro: __bitmask() __assign_bitmask() __get_bitmask() To test this, I added this to the sched_migrate_task event, which looked like this: TRACE_EVENT(sched_migrate_task, TP_PROTO(struct task_struct *p, int dest_cpu, const struct cpumask *cpus), TP_ARGS(p, dest_cpu, cpus), TP_STRUCT__entry( __array( char, comm, TASK_COMM_LEN ) __field( pid_t, pid ) __field( int, prio ) __field( int, orig_cpu ) __field( int, dest_cpu ) __bitmask( cpumask, num_possible_cpus() ) ), TP_fast_assign( memcpy(__entry->comm, p->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN); __entry->pid = p->pid; __entry->prio = p->prio; __entry->orig_cpu = task_cpu(p); __entry->dest_cpu = dest_cpu; __assign_bitmask(cpumask, cpumask_bits(cpus), num_possible_cpus()); ), TP_printk("comm=%s pid=%d prio=%d orig_cpu=%d dest_cpu=%d cpumask=%s", __entry->comm, __entry->pid, __entry->prio, __entry->orig_cpu, __entry->dest_cpu, __get_bitmask(cpumask)) ); With the output of: ksmtuned-3613 [003] d..2 485.220508: sched_migrate_task: comm=ksmtuned pid=3615 prio=120 orig_cpu=3 dest_cpu=2 cpumask=00000000,0000000f migration/1-13 [001] d..5 485.221202: sched_migrate_task: comm=ksmtuned pid=3614 prio=120 orig_cpu=1 dest_cpu=0 cpumask=00000000,0000000f awk-3615 [002] d.H5 485.221747: sched_migrate_task: comm=rcu_preempt pid=7 prio=120 orig_cpu=0 dest_cpu=1 cpumask=00000000,000000ff migration/2-18 [002] d..5 485.222062: sched_migrate_task: comm=ksmtuned pid=3615 prio=120 orig_cpu=2 dest_cpu=3 cpumask=00000000,0000000f Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1399377998-14870-6-git-send-email-javi.merino@arm.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140506132238.22e136d1@gandalf.local.home Suggested-by: Javi Merino <javi.merino@arm.com> Tested-by: Javi Merino <javi.merino@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2009-12-09tracing: Add full state to trace_seqJohannes Berg1-0/+2
The trace_seq buffer might fill up, and right now one needs to check the return value of each printf into the buffer to check for that. Instead, have the buffer keep track of whether it is full or not, and reject more input if it is full or would have overflowed with an input that wasn't added.

2009-12-09tracing: Buffer the output of seq_file in case of filled bufferSteven Rostedt1-2/+3
If the seq_read fills the buffer it will call s_start again on the next itertation with the same position. This causes a problem with the function_graph tracer because it consumes the iteration in order to determine leaf functions. What happens is that the iterator stores the entry, and the function graph plugin will look at the next entry. If that next entry is a return of the same function and task, then the function is a leaf and the function_graph plugin calls ring_buffer_read which moves the ring buffer iterator forward (the trace iterator still points to the function start entry). The copying of the trace_seq to the seq_file buffer will fail if the seq_file buffer is full. The seq_read will not show this entry. The next read by userspace will cause seq_read to again call s_start which will reuse the trace iterator entry (the function start entry). But the function return entry was already consumed. The function graph plugin will think that this entry is a nested function and not a leaf. To solve this, the trace code now checks the return status of the seq_printf (trace_print_seq). If the writing to the seq_file buffer fails, we set a flag in the iterator (leftover) and we do not reset the trace_seq buffer. On the next call to s_start, we check the leftover flag, and if it is set, we just reuse the trace_seq buffer and do not call into the plugin print functions.

2009-04-14tracing: make trace_seq operations available for core kernelSteven Rostedt1-0/+89
In the process to make TRACE_EVENT macro work for modules, the trace_seq operations must be available for core kernel code. These operations are quite useful and can be used for other implementations. The main idea is that we create a trace_seq handle that acts very much like the seq_file handle. struct trace_seq *s = kmalloc(sizeof(*s, GFP_KERNEL); trace_seq_init(s); trace_seq_printf(s, "some data %d\n", variable); printk("%s", s->buffer); The main use is to allow a top level function call several other functions that may store printf like data into the buffer. Then at the end, the top level function can process all the data with any method it would like to. It could be passed to userspace, output via printk or even use seq_file: trace_seq_to_user(s, ubuf, cnt); seq_puts(m, s->buffer); Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
