fgraph: Use CPU hotplug mechanism to initialize idle shadow stacks
The function graph infrastructure allocates a shadow stack for every task when enabled. This includes the idle tasks. The first time the function graph is invoked, the shadow stacks are created and never freed until the task exits. This includes the idle tasks. Only the idle tasks that were for online CPUs had their shadow stacks created when function graph tracing started. If function graph tracing is enabled and a CPU comes online, the idle task representing that CPU will not have its shadow stack created, and all function graph tracing for that idle task will be silently dropped. Instead, use the CPU hotplug mechanism to allocate the idle shadow stacks. This will include idle tasks for CPUs that come online during tracing. This issue can be reproduced by: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online # echo 0 > set_ftrace_pid # echo function_graph > current_tracer # echo 1 > options/funcgraph-proc # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1 # grep '<idle>' per_cpu/cpu1/trace | head Before, nothing would show up. After: 1) <idle>-0 | 0.811 us | __enqueue_entity(); 1) <idle>-0 | 5.626 us | } /* enqueue_entity */ 1) <idle>-0 | | dl_server_update_idle_time() { 1) <idle>-0 | | dl_scaled_delta_exec() { 1) <idle>-0 | 0.450 us | arch_scale_cpu_capacity(); 1) <idle>-0 | 1.242 us | } 1) <idle>-0 | 1.908 us | } 1) <idle>-0 | | dl_server_start() { 1) <idle>-0 | | enqueue_dl_entity() { 1) <idle>-0 | | task_contending() { Note, if tracing stops and restarts, the old way would then initialize the onlined CPUs.
