      add a probe alias $task in trace.py · f92fef26
      Yonghong Song authored
      The $task refers to the current task. In my particular case, I need
      to trace the number of users for file system associated with the current
      task. With the probe alias $task, trace.py can easily trace this event
      
        ......
        trace.py -I 'linux/fs_struct.h' 'mntns_install "users = %d", $task->fs->users'
        PID     TID     COMM            FUNC             -
        176566  176566  python2.7       mntns_install    users = 2
        176566  176566  python2.7       mntns_install    users = 2
        ......
      
      With $task probe alias, kernel tast_struct fields can be used in trace.py
      filter or output easily even if they cannot be accessed through input
      parameters.

      When kernel CONFIG_KASAN is enabled, the function memset becomes
      a global function __memset. The bcc application with probe
      rewrite will incur an error like:
      
        error: <unknown>:0:0: in function tracepoint__task__task_newtask i32
               (%struct.tracepoint__task__task_newtask*): A call to global function
               '__memset' is not supported. Only calls to predefined BPF helpers
               are allowed.
      
      Replace memset function with clang __builtin_memset so that
      the compiler is able to eventually optimize it away.

      fix flaky test py_test_usdt3 · ddfaa999
      Yonghong Song authored
      py_test_usdt3 has shown flakiness recently, and I actually reproduced
      it on FC27. This patch increases the iteration number for
      kprobe_poll and I ran the test for more than 20 times
      without any failure.
      
      Also fix a python3 compability issue. Open the file to write with
      attribute "wb" instead of "w" since the text string is a byte array.

      fix a race condition between perf_reader munmap and read · cd5d4a6c
      Yonghong Song authored
      Fix issue #1533.
      
      Currently, there exist a race condition between perf_reader
      buffer munmap and read if they are happening in two different
      threads, crash is possible as in issue #1533.
      
                thread 1                    thread 2
                perf_reader_event_read      ...
                                            detach_probe
                                            munmap
                access ring buffer
      
      detach_probe may happen as part of bpf object exit cleanup process
      at which point thread 1 is still alive. In this case, accessing
      ring buffer may cause segfault since the original mmap'ed memory
      is not available any more.
      
      It is hard to fix such races outside bcc since user
      calls kprobe_poll which has valid BPF object when it is called,
      but race happens inside the kprobe_poll.
      
      This patch adds a state of the ring buffer and the read will
      not happen once the state comes to the munmap.
