2010-10-05workqueue: add queue_work and activate_work trace pointsTejun Heo1-0/+53
These two tracepoints allow tracking when and how a work is queued and activated. This patch is based on Frederic's patch to add queue_work trace point. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

Define workqueue_work event class and use it for workqueue_execute_end trace point. Also, move trace/events/workqueue.h include downwards such that all struct definitions are visible to it. This is to prepare for more tracepoints and doesn't cause any functional change. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

2010-09-17tracing, perf: Add more power related eventsJean Pihet1-3/+87
This patch adds new generic events for dynamic power management tracing: - clock events class: used for clock enable/disable and for clock rate change, - power_domain events class: used for power domains transitions. The OMAP architecture will be using the new events for PM debugging, however the new events are made generic enough to be used by all platforms.

This patch adds tracepoint to consume_skb and add trace_kfree_skb before __kfree_skb in skb_free_datagram_locked and net_tx_action. Combinating with tracepoint on dev_hard_start_xmit, we can check how long it takes to free transmitted packets. And using it, we can calculate how many packets driver had at that time.

2010-08-21workqueue: Add basic tracepoints to track workqueue executionArjan van de Ven1-0/+62
With the introduction of the new unified work queue thread pools, we lost one feature: It's no longer possible to know which worker is causing the CPU to wake out of idle. The result is that PowerTOP now reports a lot of "kworker/a:b" instead of more readable results. This patch adds a pair of tracepoints to the new workqueue code, similar in style to the timer/hrtimer tracepoints. With this pair of tracepoints, the next PowerTOP can correctly report which work item caused the wakeup (and how long it took): Interrupt (43) i915 time 3.51ms wakeups 141 Work ieee80211_iface_work time 0.81ms wakeups 29 Work do_dbs_timer time 0.55ms wakeups 24 Process Xorg time 21.36ms wakeups 4 Timer sched_rt_period_timer time 0.01ms wakeups 1 Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2010-08-19tracing: Fix timer tracingArjan van de Ven1-2/+6
PowerTOP would like to be able to trace timers. Unfortunately, the current timer tracing is not very useful: the actual timer function is not recorded in the trace at the start of timer execution. Although this is recorded for timer "start" time (when it gets armed), this is not useful; most timers get started early, and a tracer like PowerTOP will never see this event, but will only see the actual running of the timer. This patch just adds the function to the timer tracing; I've verified with PowerTOP that now it can get useful information about timers.

Add 2 new trace points to the periodic write-back wake up case, just like we do in the 'bdi_queue_work()' function. Namely, introduce: 1. trace_writeback_wake_thread(bdi) 2. trace_writeback_wake_forker_thread(bdi) The first event is triggered every time we wake up a bdi thread to start periodic background write-out. The second event is triggered only when the bdi thread does not exist and should be created by the forker thread. This patch was suggested by Dave Chinner and Christoph Hellwig.

2010-08-07writeback: Initial tracing supportDave Chinner1-0/+91
Trace queue/sched/exec parts of the writeback loop. This provides insight into when and why flusher threads are scheduled to run. e.g a sync invocation leaves traces like: sync-[...]: writeback_queue: bdi 8:0: sb_dev 8:1 nr_pages=7712 sync_mode=0 kupdate=0 range_cyclic=0 background=0 flush-8:0-[...]: writeback_exec: bdi 8:0: sb_dev 8:1 nr_pages=7712 sync_mode=0 kupdate=0 range_cyclic=0 background=0 This also lays the foundation for adding more writeback tracing to provide deeper insight into the whole writeback path. The original tracing code is from Jens Axboe, though this version is a rewrite as a result of the code being traced changing significantly.

2010-07-22x86 cpufreq, perf: Make trace_power_frequency cpufreq driver independentThomas Renninger1-12/+15
and fix the broken case if a core's frequency depends on others. trace_power_frequency was only implemented in a rather ungeneric way in acpi-cpufreq driver's target() function only. -> Move the call to trace_power_frequency to cpufreq.c:cpufreq_notify_transition() where CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier is triggered. This will support power frequency tracing by all cpufreq drivers. trace_power_frequency did not trace frequency changes correctly when the userspace governor was used or when CPU cores' frequency depend on each other. -> Moving this into the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and pass the cpu which gets switched automatically fixes this. Robert Schoene provided some important fixes on top of my initial quick shot version which are integrated in this patch: - Forgot some changes in power_end trace (TP_printk/variable names) - Variable dummy in power_end must now be cpu_id - Use static 64 bit variable instead of unsigned int for cpu_id [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix] Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Cc: davej@codemonkey.org.uk Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Dave Jones <davej@codemonkey.org.uk> Acked-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Cc: Robert Schoene <robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de> Tested-by: Robert Schoene <robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
2010-07-20tracing: Reduce latency and remove percpu trace_seqLai Jiangshan1-9/+3
__print_flags() and __print_symbolic() use percpu trace_seq: 1) Its memory is allocated at compile time, it wastes memory if we don't use tracing. 2) It is percpu data and it wastes more memory for multi-cpus system. 3) It disables preemption when it executes its core routine "trace_seq_printf(s, "%s: ", #call);" and introduces latency. So we move this trace_seq to struct trace_iterator.

2010-06-28tracing: Use class->reg() for all registering of eventsSteven Rostedt1-0/+2
Because kprobes and syscalls need special processing to register events, the class->reg() method was created to handle the differences. But instead of creating a default ->reg for perf and ftrace events, the code was scattered with: if (class->reg) class->reg(); else default_reg(); This is messy and can also lead to bugs. This patch cleans up this code and creates a default reg() entry for the events allowing for the code to directly call the class->reg() without the condition.

2010-06-08writeback: pay attention to wbc->nr_to_write in write_cache_pagesDave Chinner1-4/+1
If a filesystem writes more than one page in ->writepage, write_cache_pages fails to notice this and continues to attempt writeback when wbc->nr_to_write has gone negative - this trace was captured from XFS: wbc_writeback_start: towrt=1024 wbc_writepage: towrt=1024 wbc_writepage: towrt=0 wbc_writepage: towrt=-1 wbc_writepage: towrt=-5 wbc_writepage: towrt=-21 wbc_writepage: towrt=-85 This has adverse effects on filesystem writeback behaviour. write_cache_pages() needs to terminate after a certain number of pages are written, not after a certain number of calls to ->writepage are made. This is a regression introduced by 17bc6c30cf6bfffd816bdc53682dd46fc34a2cf4 ("vfs: Add no_nrwrite_index_update writeback control flag"), but cannot be reverted directly due to subsequent bug fixes that have gone in on top of it.

2010-06-08perf: Drop the skip argument from perf_arch_fetch_regs_callerFrederic Weisbecker1-1/+1
Drop this argument now that we always want to rewind only to the state of the first caller. It means frame pointers are not necessary anymore to reliably get the source of an event. But this also means we need this helper to be a macro now, as an inline function is not an option since we need to know when to provide a default implentation.

For CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels the sched_switch(.prev_state) argument isn't useful because we can get preempted with current->state != TASK_RUNNING without actually getting removed from the runqueue. Cure this by treating all preempted tasks as runnable from the tracer's point of view.
