      tracing/osnoise: Force quiescent states while tracing · caf4c86b
      Nicolas Saenz Julienne authored 
      At the moment running osnoise on a nohz_full CPU or uncontested FIFO
priority and a PREEMPT_RCU kernel might have the side effect of
extending grace periods too much. This will entice RCU to force a
context switch on the wayward CPU to end the grace period, all while
introducing unwarranted noise into the tracer. This behaviour is
unavoidable as overly extending grace periods might exhaust the system's
memory.

This same exact problem is what extended quiescent states (EQS) were
created for, conversely, rcu_momentary_dyntick_idle() emulates them by
performing a zero duration EQS. So let's make use of it.

In the common case rcu_momentary_dyntick_idle() is fairly inexpensive:
atomically incrementing a local per-CPU counter and doing a store. So it
shouldn't affect osnoise's measurements (which has a 1us granularity),
so we'll call it unanimously.

The uncommon case involve calling rcu_momentary_dyntick_idle() after
having the osnoise process:

 - Receive an expedited quiescent state IPI with preemption disabled or
   during an RCU critical section. (activates rdp->cpu_no_qs.b.exp
   code-path).

 - Being preempted within in an RCU critical section and having the
   subsequent outermost rcu_read_unlock() called with interrupts
   disabled. (t->rcu_read_unlock_special.b.blocked code-path).

Neither of those are possible at the moment, and are unlikely to be in
the future given the osnoise's loop design. On top of this, the noise
generated by the situations described above is unavoidable, and if not
exposed by rcu_momentary_dyntick_idle() will be eventually seen in
subsequent rcu_read_unlock() calls or schedule operations.

      tracing/osnoise: Do not unregister events twice · f0cfe17b

 ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

The warning complains about an attempt to unregister an
unregistered tracepoint.

This happens on trace-cmd because it first stops tracing, and
then switches the tracer to nop. Which is equivalent to:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
  # echo osnoise > current_tracer
  # echo 0 > tracing_on
  # echo nop > current_tracer

The osnoise tracer stops the workload when no trace instance
is actually collecting data. This can be caused both by
disabling tracing or disabling the tracer itself.

To avoid unregistering events twice, use the existing
trace_osnoise_callback_enabled variable to check if the events
(and the workload) are actually active before trying to
deactivate them.

      tracing/histogram: Fix sorting on old "cpu" value · 1d1898f6
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      When trying to add a histogram against an event with the "cpu" field, it
was impossible due to "cpu" being a keyword to key off of the running CPU.
So to fix this, it was changed to "common_cpu" to match the other generic
fields (like "common_pid"). But since some scripts used "cpu" for keying
off of the CPU (for events that did not have "cpu" as a field, which is
most of them), a backward compatibility trick was added such that if "cpu"
was used as a key, and the event did not have "cpu" as a field name, then
it would fallback and switch over to "common_cpu".

This fix has a couple of subtle bugs. One was that when switching over to
"common_cpu", it did not change the field name, it just set a flag. But
the code still found a "cpu" field. The "cpu" field is used for filtering
and is returned when the event does not have a "cpu" field.

This was found by:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
  # echo hist:key=cpu,pid:sort=cpu > events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
  # cat events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist

Which showed the histogram unsorted:

{ cpu:         19, pid:       1175 } hitcount:          1
{ cpu:          6, pid:        239 } hitcount:          2
{ cpu:         23, pid:       1186 } hitcount:         14
{ cpu:         12, pid:        249 } hitcount:          2
{ cpu:          3, pid:        994 } hitcount:          5

Instead of hard coding the "cpu" checks, take advantage of the fact that
trace_event_field_field() returns a special field for "cpu" and "CPU" if
the event does not have "cpu" as a field. This special field has the
"filter_type" of "FILTER_CPU". Check that to test if the returned field is
of the CPU type instead of doing the string compare.

Also, fix the sorting bug by testing for the hist_field flag of
HIST_FIELD_FL_CPU when setting up the sort routine. Otherwise it will use
the special CPU field to know what compare routine to use, and since that
special field does not have a size, it returns tracing_map_cmp_none.

      Pull ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "Fix s390 breakage from sorting mcount tables.

  The latest merge of the tracing tree sorts the mcount table at build
  time. But s390 appears to do things differently (like always) and
  replaces the sorted table back to the original unsorted one. As the
  ftrace algorithm depends on it being sorted, bad things happen when it
  is not, and s390 experienced those bad things.

  Add a new config to tell the boot if the mcount table is sorted or
  not, and allow s390 to opt out of it"

      ftrace: Fix assuming build time sort works for s390 · 6b9b6413
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored 
      To speed up the boot process, as mcount_loc needs to be sorted for ftrace
to work properly, sorting it at build time is more efficient than boot up
and can save milliseconds of time. Unfortunately, this change broke s390
as it will modify the mcount_loc location after the sorting takes place
and will put back the unsorted locations. Since the sorting is skipped at
boot up if it is believed that it was sorted at run time, ftrace can crash
as its algorithms are dependent on the list being sorted.

Add a new config BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT that is set when
BUILDTIME_TABLE_SORT but not if S390 is set. Use this config to determine
if sorting should take place at boot up.
