15 years agoftrace: graph of a single function
Steven Rostedt [Wed, 3 Dec 2008 20:36:57 +0000 (15:36 -0500)]
ftrace: graph of a single function

This patch adds the file:

   /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function

which can be used along with the function graph tracer.

When this file is empty, the function graph tracer will act as
usual. When the file has a function in it, the function graph
tracer will only trace that function.

For example:

 # echo blk_unplug > /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function
 # cat /debugfs/tracing/trace
 [...]
 ------------------------------------------
 | 2)  make-19003  =>  kjournald-2219
 ------------------------------------------

 2)               |  blk_unplug() {
 2)               |    dm_unplug_all() {
 2)               |      dm_get_table() {
 2)      1.381 us |        _read_lock();
 2)      0.911 us |        dm_table_get();
 2)      1. 76 us |        _read_unlock();
 2) +   12.912 us |      }
 2)               |      dm_table_unplug_all() {
 2)               |        blk_unplug() {
 2)      0.778 us |          generic_unplug_device();
 2)      2.409 us |        }
 2)      5.992 us |      }
 2)      0.813 us |      dm_table_put();
 2) +   29. 90 us |    }
 2) +   34.532 us |  }

You can add up to 32 functions into this file. Currently we limit it
to 32, but this may change with later improvements.

To add another function, use the append '>>':

  # echo sys_read >> /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function
  # cat /debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function
  blk_unplug
  sys_read

Using the '>' will clear out the function and write anew:

  # echo sys_write > /debug/tracing/set_graph_function
  # cat /debug/tracing/set_graph_function
  sys_write

Note, if you have function graph running while doing this, the small
time between clearing it and updating it will cause the graph to
record all functions. This should not be an issue because after
it sets the filter, only those functions will be recorded from then on.
If you need to only record a particular function then set this
file first before starting the function graph tracer. In the future
this side effect may be corrected.

The set_graph_function file is similar to the set_ftrace_filter but
it does not take wild cards nor does it allow for more than one
function to be set with a single write. There is no technical reason why
this is the case, I just do not have the time yet to implement that.

Note, dynamic ftrace must be enabled for this to appear because it
uses the dynamic ftrace records to match the name to the mcount
call sites.

ftrace: fix race in function graph during fork

Impact: graph tracer race/crash fix

There is a nasy race in startup of a new process running the
function graph tracer. In fork.c:

total_forks++;
spin_unlock(&current->sighand->siglock);
write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock);
ftrace_graph_init_task(p);
proc_fork_connector(p);
cgroup_post_fork(p);
return p;

The new task is free to run as soon as the tasklist_lock is released.
This is before the ftrace_graph_init_task. If the task does run
it will be using the same ret_stack and curr_ret_stack as the parent.
This will cause crashes that are difficult to debug.

This patch moves the ftrace_graph_init_task to just after the alloc_pid
code. This fixes the above race.

this and finds the real function to print. Both are printed to
let the user know that a hook is still in place.

This does give a funny side effect in the stack tracer output:

This patch implements the support for function graph tracer under x86-64.
Both static and dynamic tracing are supported.

This causes some small CPP conditional asm on arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c I
wanted to use probe_kernel_read/write to make the return address
saving/patching code more generic but it causes tracing recursion.

That would be perhaps useful to implement a notrace version of these
function for other archs ports.

Note that arch/x86/process_64.c is not traced, as in X86-32. I first
thought __switch_to() was responsible of crashes during tracing because I
believed current task were changed inside but that's actually not the
case (actually yes, but not the "current" pointer).

So I will have to investigate to find the functions that harm here, to
enable tracing of the other functions inside (but there is no issue at
this time, while process_64.c stays out of -pg flags).

A little possible race condition is fixed inside this patch too. When the
tracer allocate a return stack dynamically, the current depth is not
initialized before but after. An interrupt could occur at this time and,
after seeing that the return stack is allocated, the tracer could try to
trace it with a random uninitialized depth. It's a prevention, even if I
hadn't problems with it.

i82875p_edac: fix module remove

Fix module removal bugs of i82875p_edac.  Also i82975x_edac code seems to
have the same module removal bugs as in i82875p_edac.

The problems were:

1. In module removal i82875p_remove_one() is never called.

   Variable i82875p_registered is newer changed from 1, which
   guarantees i82875p_remove_one() is not called (and even if it were
   called, it would be called in wrong order).

   As a result, the edac_mc workque is not stopped and keeps probing.
   If kernel debugging options are not enabled, user may not notice
   anything going wrong.

   if debugging options are enabled and I do "rmmod i82875p_edac", I
   get:

      edac debug: edac_pci_workq_function() checking

       [<c0204587>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10

   Fix for this is to get rid of needles variable i82875p_registered
   altogether and run i82875p_remove_one() *before*
   pci_unregister_driver().

2. edac_mc_del_mc() uses mci after freeing mci

   edac_mc_del_mc() calls calls edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device().  The
   kobject refcount of mci drops to 0 and mci is freed.  After this
   mci is accessed via debug print and i82875p_remove_one() still
   uses mci->pvt and tries to free mci again with edac_mc_free().

   The fix for this is add kobject_get(&mci->edac_mci_kobj) after
   edac_mc_alloc(). Then the mci is still available after returning
   from edac_mc_del_mc() with refcount 1, and mci->pvt is still
   available. When i82875p_remove_one() finally calls edac_mc_free(),
   this will cause kobject_put() and mci is released properly.

module loads just fine.

The overflow device on the MB seems to be hidden and its resources are not

fbdev: fix FB console blanking

The commit aef7db4bd5a3b6068dfa05919a3d685199eed116 fixed the problem with
recursive locking in fb blanking code if blank is caused by user setting
the /sys/class/graphics/fb*/blank.  However this broke the fbcon timeout
blanking.

If you use a driver that defines ->fb_blank operation and at the same time
that driver relies on other driver (e.g.  backlight or lcd class) to blank
the screen, when the fbcon times out and tries to blank the fb, it will
call only fb driver blanker and won't notify the other driver.  Thus FB
output is disabled, but the screen isn't blanked.

Restore fbcon blanking and at the same time apply the proper fix for the
above problem: if fbcon_blank is called with FBINFO_FLAG_USEREVENT, we are
already called through notification from fb_blank, thus we don't have to
blank the fb again.

epoll: introduce resource usage limits

It has been thought that the per-user file descriptors limit would also
limit the resources that a normal user can request via the epoll
interface.  Vegard Nossum reported a very simple program (a modified
version attached) that can make a normal user to request a pretty large
amount of kernel memory, well within the its maximum number of fds.  To
solve such problem, default limits are now imposed, and /proc based
configuration has been introduced.  A new directory has been created,
named /proc/sys/fs/epoll/ and inside there, there are two configuration
points:

  max_user_instances = Maximum number of devices - per user

  max_user_watches   = Maximum number of "watched" fds - per user

The current default for "max_user_watches" limits the memory used by epoll
to store "watches", to 1/32 of the amount of the low RAM.  As example, a
256MB 32bit machine, will have "max_user_watches" set to roughly 90000.
That should be enough to not break existing heavy epoll users.  The
default value for "max_user_instances" is set to 128, that should be
enough too.

This also changes the userspace, because a new error code can now come out
from EPOLL_CTL_ADD (-ENOSPC).  The EMFILE from epoll_create() was already
listed, so that should be ok.

15 years agomemcg: memory hotplug fix for notifier callback
KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki [Mon, 1 Dec 2008 21:13:48 +0000 (13:13 -0800)]
memcg: memory hotplug fix for notifier callback

Fixes for memcg/memory hotplug.

While memory hotplug allocate/free memmap, page_cgroup doesn't free
page_cgroup at OFFLINE when page_cgroup is allocated via bootomem.
(Because freeing bootmem requires special care.)

Then, if page_cgroup is allocated by bootmem and memmap is freed/allocated
by memory hotplug, page_cgroup->page == page is no longer true.

But current MEM_ONLINE handler doesn't check it and update
page_cgroup->page if it's not necessary to allocate page_cgroup.  (This
was not found because memmap is not freed if SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is y.)

And I noticed that MEM_ONLINE can be called against "part of section".
So, freeing page_cgroup at CANCEL_ONLINE will cause trouble.  (freeing
used page_cgroup) Don't rollback at CANCEL.

One more, current memory hotplug notifier is stopped by slub because it
sets NOTIFY_STOP_MASK to return vaule.  So, page_cgroup's callback never
be called.  (low priority than slub now.)

I think this slub's behavior is not intentional(BUG). and fixes it.

Another way to be considered about page_cgroup allocation:
  - free page_cgroup at OFFLINE even if it's from bootmem
    and remove specieal handler. But it requires more changes.

15 years agomm: vmalloc fix lazy unmapping cache aliasing
Nick Piggin [Mon, 1 Dec 2008 21:13:47 +0000 (13:13 -0800)]
mm: vmalloc fix lazy unmapping cache aliasing

Jim Radford has reported that the vmap subsystem rewrite was sometimes
causing his VIVT ARM system to behave strangely (seemed like going into
infinite loops trying to fault in pages to userspace).

We determined that the problem was most likely due to a cache aliasing
issue.  flush_cache_vunmap was only being called at the moment the page
tables were to be taken down, however with lazy unmapping, this can happen
after the page has subsequently been freed and allocated for something
else.  The dangling alias may still have dirty data attached to it.

The fix for this problem is to do the cache flushing when the caller has
called vunmap -- it would be a bug for them to write anything else to the
mapping at that point.

That appeared to solve Jim's problems.

Once the RESIZE_CQ command returns successfully from FW, FW no longer

powerpc: Fix system calls on Cell entered with XER.SO=1

It turns out that on Cell, on a kernel with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
= y, if a program sets the SO (summary overflow) bit in the XER and
then does a system call, the SO bit in CR0 will be set on return
regardless of whether the system call detected an error.  Since CR0.SO
is used as the error indication from the system call, this means that
all system calls appear to fail.

The reason is that the workaround for the timebase bug on Cell uses a
compare instruction.  With CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING = y, the
ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY macro reads the timebase, so we end up doing a
compare instruction, which copies XER.SO to CR0.SO.  Since we were
doing this in the system call entry patch after clearing CR0.SO but
before saving the CR, this meant that the saved CR image had CR0.SO
set if XER.SO was set on entry.

This fixes it by moving the clearing of CR0.SO to after the
ACCOUNT_CPU_USER_ENTRY call in the system call entry path.

powerpc/mpic: Don't reset affinity for secondary MPIC on boot

Kexec/kdump currently fails on the IBM QS2x blades when the kexec happens
on a CPU other than the initial boot CPU.  It turns out that this is the
result of mpic_init trying to set affinity of each interrupt vector to the
current boot CPU.

As far as I can tell,  the same problem is likely to exist on any
secondary MPIC, because they have to deliver interrupts to the first
output all the time. There are two potential solutions for this: either
not set up affinity at all for secondary MPICs, or assume that a single
CPU output is connected to the upstream interrupt controller and hardcode
affinity to that per architecture.

This patch implements the second approach, defaulting to the first output.
Currently, all known secondary MPICs are routed to their upstream port
using the first destination, so we hardcode that.

powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interrupt

The MSI capture logic for the axon bridge can sometimes
lose interrupts in case of high DMA and interrupt load,
when it signals an MSI interrupt to the MPIC interrupt
controller while we are already handling another MSI.

Each MSI vector gets written into a FIFO buffer in main
memory using DMA, and that DMA access is normally flushed
by the actual interrupt packet on the IOIF.  An MMIO
register in the MSIC holds the position of the last
entry in the FIFO buffer that was written.  However,
reading that position does not flush the DMA, so that
we can observe stale data in the buffer.

In a stress test, we have observed the DMA to arrive
up to 14 microseconds after reading the register.

This patch works around this problem by retrying the
access to the FIFO buffer.

We can reliably detect the conditioning by writing
an invalid MSI vector into the FIFO buffer after
reading from it, assuming that all MSIs we get
are valid.  After detecting an invalid MSI vector,
we udelay(1) in the interrupt cascade for up to
100 times before giving up.

I've reproduced this on 2.6.27.7.  It is caused by commit
8f64e1f2d1e09267ac926e15090fd505c1c0cbcb ("powerpc: Reserve in bootmem
lmb reserved regions that cross NUMA nodes").

The problem is that Jon took a loop which was (in pseudocode):

for_each_node(nid)
NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid);
setup_bootmem(nid);
reserve_node_bootmem(nid);

and broke it up into:

for_each_node(nid)
NODE_DATA(nid) = careful_alloc(nid);
setup_bootmem(nid);
for_each_node(nid)
reserve_node_bootmem(nid);

The issue comes in when the 'careful_alloc()' is called on a node with
no memory.  It falls back to using bootmem from a previously-initialized
node.  But, bootmem has not yet been reserved when Jon's patch is
applied.  It gives back bogus memory (0xc000000000000000) and pukes
later in boot.

The following patch collapses the loop back together.  It also breaks
the mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code out into a function and adds
some comments.  I think a huge part of introducing this bug is because
for loop was too long and hard to read.

The actual bug fix here is the:

+ if (end_pfn <= node->node_start_pfn ||
+     start_pfn >= node_end_pfn)
+ continue;

powerpc: Fix IRQ assignment for some PCIe devices

Currently, some PCIe devices on POWER6 machines do not get interrupts
assigned correctly.  The problem is that OF doesn't create an
"interrupt" property for them.  The fix is for of_irq_map_pci to fall
back to using the value in the PCI interrupt-pin register in config
space, as we do when there is no OF device-tree node for the device.

I have verified that this works fine with a pair of Squib-E SAS
adapter on a P6-570.
