      x86: X86 instruction decoder build-time selftest · ca0e9bad
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      Add a user-space selftest of x86 instruction decoder at kernel build
      time.
      When CONFIG_X86_DECODER_SELFTEST=y, Kbuild builds a test harness of x86
      instruction decoder and performs it after building vmlinux.
      The test compares the results of objdump and x86 instruction decoder
      code and check there are no differences.

      x86: Instruction decoder API · eb13296c
      Masami Hiramatsu authored
      Add x86 instruction decoder to arch-specific libraries. This decoder
      can decode x86 instructions used in kernel into prefix, opcode, modrm,
      sib, displacement and immediates. This can also show the length of
      instructions.
      
      This version introduces instruction attributes for decoding
      instructions.
      The instruction attribute tables are generated from the opcode map file
      (x86-opcode-map.txt) by the generator script(gen-insn-attr-x86.awk).
      
      Currently, the opcode maps are based on opcode maps in Intel(R) 64 and
      IA-32 Architectures Software Developers Manual Vol.2: Appendix.A,
      and consist of below two types of opcode tables.
      
      1-byte/2-bytes/3-bytes opcodes, which has 256 elements, are
      written as below;
      
       Table: table-name
       Referrer: escaped-name
       opcode: mnemonic|GrpXXX [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...]
        (or)
       opcode: escape # escaped-name
       EndTable
      
      Group opcodes, which has 8 elements, are written as below;
      
       GrpTable: GrpXXX
       reg:  mnemonic [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...]
       EndTable
      
      These opcode maps include a few SSE and FP opcodes (for setup), because
      those opcodes are used in the kernel.

      tracing/events: fix the include file dependencies · 5ac35daa
      Xiao Guangrong authored
      The TRACE_EVENT depends on the include/linux/tracepoint.h first
      and include/trace/ftrace.h later, if we include the ftrace.h early,
      a building error will occur.
      
      Both define TRACE_EVENT in trace_a.h and trace_b.h, if we include
      those in .c file, like this:
      
      #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
      include <trace/events/trace_a.h>
      include <trace/events/trace_b.h>
      
      The above will not work, because the TRACE_EVENT was re-defined by
      the previous .h file.

      tracing/filters: Support filtering for char * strings · 87a342f5
      Li Zefan authored
      Usually, char * entries are dangerous in traces because the string
      can be released whereas a pointer to it can still wait to be read from
      the ring buffer.
      
      But sometimes we can assume it's safe, like in case of RO data
      (eg: __file__ or __line__, used in bkl trace event). If these RO data
      are in a module and so is the call to the trace event, then it's safe,
      because the ring buffer will be flushed once this module get unloaded.
      
      To allow char * to be treated as a string:
      
      	TRACE_EVENT(...,
      
      		TP_STRUCT__entry(
      			__field_ext(const char *, name, FILTER_PTR_STRING)
      			...
      		)
      
      		...
      	);
      
      The filtering will not dereference "char *" unless the developer
      explicitly sets FILTER_PTR_STR in __field_ext.

      tracing/filters: Add filter_type to struct ftrace_event_field · aa38e9fc
      Li Zefan authored
      The type of a field is stored as a string in @type, and here
      we add @filter_type which is an enum value.
      
      This prepares for later patches, so we can specifically assign
      different @filter_type for the same @type.
      
      For example normally a "char *" field is treated as a ptr,
      but we may want it to be treated as a string when doing filting.

      tracing: Add vim script to enable folding for function_graph traces · 6591b493
      Josh Triplett authored
      function_graph traces look like nested function calls, complete with
      braces denoting the start and end of functions.  function-graph-fold.vim
      teaches vim how to fold these functions, to make it more convenient to
      browse them.
      
      To use, :source function-graph-fold.vim while viewing a function_graph
      trace, or use "view -S function-graph-fold.vim some-trace" to load it
      from the command-line together with a trace.  You can then use the usual
      vim fold commands, such as "za", to open and close nested functions.
      While closed, a fold will show the total time taken for a call, as would
      normally appear on the line with the closing brace.  Folded functions
      will not include finish_task_switch(), so folding should remain
      relatively sane even through a context switch.
      
      Note that this will almost certainly only work well with a single-CPU
      trace (e.g. trace-cmd report --cpu 1).  It also takes some time to run
      (a few seconds for a large trace on my laptop).  Nevertheless, I found
      it very handy to get an overview of a trace and then drill down on
      problematic calls.

      tracing/sched: show CPU task wakes up on in trace event · f0693c8b
      Steven Rostedt authored
      While debugging the scheduler push / pull algorithm, I found
      it very annoying that the sched wake up events did not show
      the CPU that the task was waking on. In order to analyze the
      scheduler, I needed that information.
      
      This patch adds recording of the CPU that a task is waking up

      tracing: Create generic syscall TRACE_EVENTs · 1c569f02
      Josh Stone authored
      This converts the syscall_enter/exit tracepoints into TRACE_EVENTs, so
      you can have generic ftrace events that capture all system calls with
      arguments and return values.  These generic events are also renamed to
      sys_enter/exit, so they're more closely aligned to the specific
      sys_enter_foo events.

      tracing: Move tracepoint callbacks from declaration to definition · 97419875
      Josh Stone authored
      It's not strictly correct for the tracepoint reg/unreg callbacks to
      occur when a client is hooking up, because the actual tracepoint may not
      be present yet.  This happens to be fine for syscall, since that's in
      the core kernel, but it would cause problems for tracepoints defined in
      a module that hasn't been loaded yet.  It also means the reg/unreg has
      to be EXPORTed for any modules to use the tracepoint (as in SystemTap).
      
      This patch removes DECLARE_TRACE_WITH_CALLBACK, and instead introduces
      DEFINE_TRACE_FN which stores the callbacks in struct tracepoint.  The
      callbacks are used now when the active state of the tracepoint changes
      in set_tracepoint & disable_tracepoint.
      
      This also introduces TRACE_EVENT_FN, so ftrace events can also provide
      registration callbacks if needed.

      The syscall enter/exit tracepoints are only supported on archs that

      Also, the definition of syscall_regfunc and syscall_unregfunc should

      tracing/syscalls: Fix fields format for enter events · e6971969
      Li Zefan authored
      The "format" file of a trace event is originally for parsers to
      parse ftrace binary output.
      
      But the "format" file of a syscall event can only be used by
      perfcounter, because it describes the format of struct
      syscall_enter_record not struct syscall_trace_enter.
      
      To fix this, we remove struct syscall_enter_record, and then
      struct syscall_trace_enter will be used by both perf profile
      and ftrace.

      [S390] ftrace: update system call tracer support · 5e9ad7df
      Ingo Molnar authored
      Commit fb34a08c ("tracing: Add trace events for each syscall
      entry/exit") changed the lowlevel API to ftrace syscall tracing
      but did not update s390 which started making use of it recently.
      
      This broke the s390 build, as reported by Paul Mundt.
      
      Update the callbacks with the syscall number and the syscall
      return code values. This allows per syscall tracepoints,
      syscall argument enumeration /debug/tracing/events/syscalls/
      and perfcounters support and integration on s390 too.

      The cause is, when stat_seq_start() is called the 2nd time, we

      tracing/syscalls: Fix to print parameter types · ba8b3a40
      Li Zefan authored
      When syscall tracing was implemented as a tracer,
      "syscall_arg_type" trace option could be set to enable the
      display of syscall parameter types.
      
      Now this option is gone since it's no longer a tracer, but the
      code is still there but dead.
      
      So we remove dead code and re-enable the printing of paramete
      types via the verbose option:
      
        # echo verbose > trace_options
        # echo syscalls > set_event
        # cat trace
      	...
              bash-3331  [000]    95.348937: sys_fcntl64 -> 0x1

      tracing: Add fields format definition for syscall events · dc4ddb4c
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      Define the format of the syscall trace fields to parse the binary
      values from a raw trace using the syscall events "format" file.
      
      This is defined dynamically using the syscalls metadata.
      It prepares the export of syscall event raw records to perf
      counters.
      
      Example:
      
      $ cat /debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_sched_getparam/format
      name: sys_enter_sched_getparam
      ID: 39

      	field:unsigned char common_flags;	offset:2;	size:1;
      	field:unsigned char common_preempt_count;	offset:3;	size:1;
      	field:int common_pid;	offset:4;	size:4;
      	field:int common_tgid;	offset:8;	size:4;
      
      	field:pid_t pid;	offset:12;	size:8;
      	field:struct sched_param * param;	offset:20;	size:8;

      tracing: Add perf counter support for syscalls tracing · f4b5ffcc
      Jason Baron authored
      The perf counter support is automated for usual trace events. But we
      have to define specific callbacks for this to handle syscalls trace
      events
      
      Make 'perf stat -e syscalls:sys_enter_blah' work with syscall style
      tracepoints.

      tracing: Add individual syscalls tracepoint id support · 64c12e04
      Jason Baron authored
      The current state of syscalls tracepoints generates only one event id
      for every syscall events.
      
      This patch associates an id with each syscall trace event, so that we
      can identify each syscall trace event using the 'perf' tool.

      tracing: Add trace events for each syscall entry/exit · fb34a08c
      Jason Baron authored
      Layer Frederic's syscall tracer on tracepoints. We create trace events
      via hooking into the SYSCALL_DEFINE macros. This allows us to
      individually toggle syscall entry and exit points on/off.

      tracing: Add ftrace_event_call void * 'data' field · 69fd4f0e
      Jason Baron authored
      add an optional void * pointer to 'ftrace_event_call' that is
      passed in for regfunc and unregfunc.
      
      This prepares for syscall tracepoints creation by passing the name of
      the syscall we want to trace and then retrieve its number through our
      arch syscall table.

      tracing: Raw_init() bailout in trace event register fail case · f744bd57
      Jason Baron authored
      Allow the return value of raw_init() trace event callback to bail us out
      of creating a trace event file, in case we fail to register our
      event.
      
      Also, we plan to return -ENOSYS for syscall events that don't match any
      syscalls listed in our arch tracing syscall table, we don't want to warn
      in that case, we just want this event to be invisible in debugfs and
      ignored.

      tracing: Update FTRACE_SYSCALL_MAX · 9daa77e2
      Jason Baron authored
      update FTRACE_SYSCALL_MAX to the current number of syscalls
      
      FTRACE_SYSCALL_MAX is a temporary solution to get the number of
      syscalls supported by the arch until we find a more dynamic way
      to get this number.
