469535a598 ring-buffer: Fix advance of reader in rb_buffer_peek()
When calling rb_buffer_peek() from ring_buffer_consume() and a
padding event is returned, the function rb_advance_reader() is
called twice. This may lead to missing samples or under high
workloads to the warning below. This patch fixes this. If a padding
event is returned by rb_buffer_peek() it will be consumed by the
calling function now.

Also, I simplified some code in ring_buffer_consume().

print_graph_cpu() is little over-designed.

And "log10_all" may be wrong when there are holes in cpu_online_mask:

So change it by using a static column length for the cpu matching

464e85eb0e ring-buffer: do not disable ring buffer on oops_in_progress
The commit:

  commit e0fdace10e
  Author: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
  Date:   Fri Aug 1 01:11:22 2008 -0700

    debug_locks: set oops_in_progress if we will log messages.

    Otherwise lock debugging messages on runqueue locks can deadlock the
    system due to the wakeups performed by printk().

    Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
    Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Will permanently set oops_in_progress on any lockdep failure.
When this triggers it will cause any read from the ring buffer to
permanently disable the ring buffer (not to mention no locking of
printk).

This patch removes the check. It keeps the print in NMI which makes
sense. This is probably OK, since the ring buffer should not cause
something to set oops_in_progress anyway.

0f2541d299 ring-buffer: fix check of try_to_discard result
The function ring_buffer_discard_commit inversed the code path
of the result of try_to_discard. It should skip incrementing the
entry counter if try_to_discard succeeded. But instead, it increments
the entry conder if it succeeded to discard, and does not increment
it if it fails.

The result of this bug is that filtering will make the stat counters
incorrect.

74e7ff8c50 tracing: Fix missing function_graph events when we splice_read from trace_pipe
About a half events are missing when we splice_read
from trace_pipe. They are unexpectedly consumed because we ignore
the TRACE_TYPE_NO_CONSUME return value used by the function graph
tracer when it needs to consume the events by itself to walk on
the ring buffer.

The same problem appears with ftrace_dump()

Example of an output before this patch:

1)               |      ktime_get_real() {
1)   2.846 us    |          read_hpet();
1)   4.558 us    |        }
1)   6.195 us    |      }

After this patch:

0)               |      ktime_get_real() {
0)               |        getnstimeofday() {
0)   1.960 us    |          read_hpet();
0)   3.597 us    |        }
0)   5.196 us    |      }

The fix also applies on 2.6.30

38ceb592fc tracing: Fix invalid function_graph entry
When print_graph_entry() computes a function call entry event, it needs
to also check the next entry to guess if it matches the return event of
the current function entry.
In order to look at this next event, it needs to consume the current
entry before going ahead in the ring buffer.

However, if the current event that gets consumed is the last one in the
ring buffer head page, the ring_buffer may reuse the page for writers.
The consumed entry will then become invalid because of possible
racy overwriting.

Me must then handle this entry by making a copy of it.

The fix also applies on 2.6.30

8650ae32ef tracing: only truncate ftrace files when O_TRUNC is set
The current code will truncate the ftrace files contents if O_APPEND
is not set and the file is opened in write mode. This is incorrect.
It should only truncate the file if O_TRUNC is set. Otherwise
if one of these files is opened by a C program with fopen "r+",
it will incorrectly truncate the file.

4c739ff043 tracing: show proper address for trace-printk format
Since the trace_printk may use pointers to the format fields
in the buffer, they are exported via debugfs/tracing/printk_formats.
This is used by utilities that read the ring buffer in binary format.
It helps the utilities map the address of the format in the binary
buffer to what the printf format looks like.

Unfortunately, the way the output code works, it exports the address
of the pointer to the format address, and not the format address
itself. This makes the file totally useless in trying to figure
out what format string a binary address belongs to.

1f9963cbb0 tracing/filters: improve subsystem filter
Currently a subsystem filter should be applicable to all events
under the subsystem, and if it failed, all the event filters
will be cleared. Those behaviors make subsys filter much less
useful:

  # echo 'vec == 1' > irq/softirq_entry/filter
  # echo 'irq == 5' > irq/filter
  bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
  # cat irq/softirq_entry/filter
  none

I'd expect it set the filter for irq_handler_entry/exit, and
not touch softirq_entry/exit.

The basic idea is, try to see if the filter can be applied
to which events, and then just apply to the those events:

  # echo 'vec == 1' > softirq_entry/filter
  # echo 'irq == 5' > filter
  # cat irq_handler_entry/filter
  irq == 5
  # cat softirq_entry/filter
  vec == 1

Changelog for v2:
- do some cleanups to address Frederic's comments.

7d536cb3fb tracing/events: record the size of dynamic arrays
When a dynamic array is defined, we add __data_loc_foo in
trace_entry to record the offset of the array, but the
size of the array is not recorded, which causes 2 problems:

- the event filter just compares the first 2 chars of the strings.

- parsers can't parse dynamic arrays.

So we encode the size of each dynamic array in the higher 16 bits
of __data_loc_foo, while the offset is in lower 16 bits.

04aef32d39 tracing/function: Fix the return value of ftrace_trace_onoff_callback()
ftrace_trace_onoff_callback() will return an error even if we do the
right operation, for example:

 # echo _spin_*:traceon:10 > set_ftrace_filter
 -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
 # cat set_ftrace_filter
 #### all functions enabled ####
 _spin_trylock_bh:traceon:count=10
 _spin_unlock_irq:traceon:count=10
 _spin_unlock_bh:traceon:count=10
 _spin_lock_irq:traceon:count=10
 _spin_unlock:traceon:count=10
 _spin_trylock:traceon:count=10
 _spin_unlock_irqrestore:traceon:count=10
 _spin_lock_irqsave:traceon:count=10
 _spin_lock_bh:traceon:count=10
 _spin_lock:traceon:count=10

We want to set _spin_*:traceon:10 to set_ftrace_filter, it complains
with "Invalid argument", but the operation is successful.

This is because ftrace_process_regex() returns the number of functions that
matched the pattern. If the number is not 0, this value is returned
by ftrace_regex_write() whereas we want to return the number of bytes
virtually written.
Also the file offset pointer is not updated in this case.

If the number of matched functions is lower than the number of bytes written
by the user, this results to a reprocessing of the string given by the user with
a lower size, leading to a malformed ftrace regex and then a -EINVAL returned.

So, this patch fixes it by returning 0 if no error occured.
The fix also applies on 2.6.30

77ae365eca ring-buffer: make lockless
This patch converts the ring buffers into a completely lockless
buffer recording system. The read side still takes locks since
we still serialize readers. But the writers are the ones that
must be lockless (those can happen in NMIs).

The main change is to the "head_page" pointer. We write to the
tail, and read from the head. The "head_page" pointer in the cpu
buffer is now just a reference to where to look. The real head
page is now kept in the head_page->list->prev->next pointer.
That is, in the list head of the previous page we set flags.

The list pages are allocated to be aligned such that the lowest
significant bits are always zero pointing to the list. This gives
us play to put in flags to their pointers.

bit 0: set when the page is a head page
bit 1: set when the writer is moving the page (for overwrite mode)

cmpxchg is used to update the pointer.

When the writer wraps the buffer and the tail meets the head,
in overwrite mode, the writer must move the head page forward.
It first uses cmpxchg to change the pointer flag from 1 to 2.
Once this is done, the reader on another CPU will not take the
page from the buffer.

The writers need to protect against interrupts (we don't bother with
disabling interrupts because NMIs are allowed to write too).

After the writer sets the pointer flag to 2, it takes care to
manage interrupts coming in. This is discribed in detail within the
comments of the code.

 Changes in version 2:
  - Let reader reset entries value of header page.
  - Fix tail page passing commit page on reader page test.
  - Always increment entries and write counter in rb_tail_page_update
  - Add safety check in rb_set_commit_to_write to break out of infinite loop
  - add mask in rb_is_reader_page

[ Impact: lock free writing to the ring buffer ]

3adc54fa82 ring-buffer: make the buffer a true circular link list
This patch changes the ring buffer data pages from using a link list
head pointer, to making each buffer page point to another buffer page
and never back to a "head".

This makes the handling of the ring buffer less complex, since the
traversing of the ring buffer pages no longer needs to account for the
head pointer.

This change also is needed to make the ring buffer lockless.

[
  Changes in version 2:

  - Added change that Lai Jiangshan mentioned.

  From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com>

  LKML-Reference: <4A30793C.6090208@cn.fujitsu.com>

  I'm not sure whether these 4 lines:
	bpage = list_entry(pages.next, struct buffer_page, list);
	list_del_init(&bpage->list);
	cpu_buffer->pages = &bpage->list;

	list_splice(&pages, cpu_buffer->pages);
  equal to these 2 lines:
 	cpu_buffer->pages = pages.next;
 	list_del(&pages);

  If there are equivalent, I think the second one
  are simpler. It may be not a really necessarily cleanup.

  What I asked is: if there are equivalent, could you use these two line:
 	cpu_buffer->pages = pages.next;
	list_del(&pages);
]

ddc1637af2 kmemtrace: Print binary output only if 'bin' option is set
Currently by default the output of kmemtrace is binary format instead
of human-readable output.

This patch makes the following changes:

  - We'll see human-readable output by default
  - We'll see binary output if 'bin' option is set

Note: you may probably need to explicitly disable context-info binary
      output:

	# echo 0 > options/context-info
	# echo 1 > options/bin
	# cat trace_pipe

v2:
- use %pF to print call_site

e1af3aec3e tracing: Fix trace_print_seq()
We will lose something if trace_seq->buffer[0] is 0, because the copy length
is calculated by strlen() in seq_puts(), so using seq_write() instead of
seq_puts().

There have a example:
after reboot:

 # echo kmemtrace > current_tracer
 # echo 0 > options/kmem_minimalistic
 # cat trace
 # tracer: kmemtrace
 #
 #

Nothing is exported, because the first byte of trace_seq->buffer[ ]
is KMEMTRACE_USER_ALLOC.

( the value of KMEMTRACE_USER_ALLOC is zero, seeing
  kmemtrace_print_alloc_user() in kernel/trace/kmemtrace.c)

1155de47cd ring-buffer: Make it generally available
In hunting down the cause for the hwlat_detector ring buffer spew in
my failed -next builds it became obvious that folks are now treating
ring_buffer as something that is generic independent of tracing and thus,
suitable for public driver consumption.

Given that there are only a few minor areas in ring_buffer that have any
reliance on CONFIG_TRACING or CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER, provide stubs for
those and make it generally available.
