2009-12-11kgdb: Always process the whole breakpoint list on activate or deactivateJason Wessel
This patch fixes 2 edge cases in using kgdb in conjunction with gdb. 1) kgdb_deactivate_sw_breakpoints() should process the entire array of breakpoints. The failure to do so results in breakpoints that you cannot remove, because a break point can only be removed if its state flag is set to BP_SET. The easy way to duplicate this problem is to plant a break point in a kernel module and then unload the kernel module. 2) kgdb_activate_sw_breakpoints() should process the entire array of breakpoints. The failure to do so results in missed breakpoints when a breakpoint cannot be activated. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>
2009-12-11kgdb: continue and warn on signal passing from gdbJason Wessel
On some architectures for the segv trap, gdb wants to pass the signal back on continue. For kgdb this is not the default behavior, because it can cause the kernel to crash if you arbitrarily pass back a exception outside of kgdb. Instead of causing instability, pass a message back to gdb about the supported kgdb signal passing and execute a standard kgdb continue operation.

2009-12-11kgdb: allow for cpu switch when single steppingJason Wessel
The kgdb core should not assume that a single step operation of a kernel thread will complete on the same CPU. The single step flag is set at the "thread" level and it is possible in a multi cpu system that a kernel thread can get scheduled on another cpu the next time it is run. As a further safety net in case a slave cpu is hung, the debug master cpu will try 100 times before giving up and assuming control of the slave cpus is no longer possible. It is more useful to be able to get some information out of kgdb instead of spinning forever. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>

2009-12-10hrtimer: Tune hrtimer_interrupt hang logicThomas Gleixner
The hrtimer_interrupt hang logic adjusts min_delta_ns based on the execution time of the hrtimer callbacks. This is error-prone for virtual machines, where a guest vcpu can be scheduled out during the execution of the callbacks (and the callbacks themselves can do operations that translate to blocking operations in the hypervisor), which in can lead to large min_delta_ns rendering the system unusable. Replace the current heuristics with something more reliable. Allow the interrupt code to try 3 times to catch up with the lost time. If that fails use the total time spent in the interrupt handler to defer the next timer interrupt so the system can catch up with other things which got delayed. Limit that deferment to 100ms. The retry events and the maximum time spent in the interrupt handler are recorded and exposed via /proc/timer_list Inspired by a patch from Marcelo.

2009-12-09tracing: Fix function graph trace_pipe to properly display failed entriesJiri Olsa
There is a case where the graph tracer might get confused and omits displaying of a single record. This applies mostly with the trace_pipe since it is unlikely that the trace_seq buffer will overflow with the trace file. As the function_graph tracer goes through the trace entries keeping a pointer to the current record: current -> func1 ENTRY func2 ENTRY func2 RETURN func1 RETURN When an function ENTRY is encountered, it moves the pointer to the next entry to check if the function is a nested or leaf function. func1 ENTRY current -> func2 ENTRY func2 RETURN func1 RETURN If the rest of the writing of the function fills the trace_seq buffer, then the trace_pipe read will ignore this entry. The next read will Now start at the current location, but the first entry (func1) will be discarded. This patch keeps a copy of the current entry in the iterator private storage and will keep track of when the trace_seq buffer fills. When the trace_seq buffer fills, it will reuse the copy of the entry in the next iteration. [ This patch has been largely modified by Steven Rostedt in order to clean it up and simplify it. The original idea and concept was from Jirka and for that, this patch will go under his name to give him the credit he deserves. But because this was modify by Steven Rostedt anything wrong with the patch should be blamed on Steven. ] Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> LKML-Reference: <1259067458-27143-1-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-12-09tracing: Add full state to trace_seqJohannes Berg
The trace_seq buffer might fill up, and right now one needs to check the return value of each printf into the buffer to check for that. Instead, have the buffer keep track of whether it is full or not, and reject more input if it is full or would have overflowed with an input that wasn't added.

2009-12-09tracing: Buffer the output of seq_file in case of filled bufferSteven Rostedt
If the seq_read fills the buffer it will call s_start again on the next itertation with the same position. This causes a problem with the function_graph tracer because it consumes the iteration in order to determine leaf functions. What happens is that the iterator stores the entry, and the function graph plugin will look at the next entry. If that next entry is a return of the same function and task, then the function is a leaf and the function_graph plugin calls ring_buffer_read which moves the ring buffer iterator forward (the trace iterator still points to the function start entry). The copying of the trace_seq to the seq_file buffer will fail if the seq_file buffer is full. The seq_read will not show this entry. The next read by userspace will cause seq_read to again call s_start which will reuse the trace iterator entry (the function start entry). But the function return entry was already consumed. The function graph plugin will think that this entry is a nested function and not a leaf. To solve this, the trace code now checks the return status of the seq_printf (trace_print_seq). If the writing to the seq_file buffer fails, we set a flag in the iterator (leftover) and we do not reset the trace_seq buffer. On the next call to s_start, we check the leftover flag, and if it is set, we just reuse the trace_seq buffer and do not call into the plugin print functions.

2009-12-09tracing/kprobes: Fix field creation's bad error handlingFrederic Weisbecker
When we define the common event fields in kprobe, we invert the error handling and return immediately in case of success. Then we omit to define specific kprobes fields (ip and nargs), and specific kretprobes fields (func, ret_ip, nargs). And we only define them when we fail to create common fields. The most visible consequence is that we can't create filter for k(ret)probes specific fields. This patch re-invert the success/error handling to fix it.

2009-12-09hw-breakpoints: Modify breakpoints without unregistering themFrederic Weisbecker
Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling it, changing its address, type or len, it calls modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new one. This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle. So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it after if necessary.

2009-12-07tracing: Add pipe_close interfaceSteven Rostedt
An ftrace plugin can add a pipe_open interface when the user opens trace_pipe. But if the plugin allocates something within the pipe_open it can not free it because there exists no pipe_close. The hook to the trace file open has a corresponding close. The closing of the trace_pipe file should also have a corresponding close. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2009-12-07hw-breakpoints: Fix task-bound breakpoint slot allocationFrederic Weisbecker
Whatever the context nature of a breakpoint, we always perform the following constraint checks before allocating it a slot: - Check the number of pinned breakpoint bound the concerned cpus - Check the max number of task-bound breakpoints that are belonging to a task. - Add both and see if we have a reamining slot for the new breakpoint This is the right thing to do when we are about to register a cpu-only bound breakpoint. But not if we are dealing with a task bound breakpoint. What we want in this case is: - Check the number of pinned breakpoint bound the concerned cpus - Check the number of breakpoints that already belong to the task in which the breakpoint to register is bound to. - Add both This fixes a regression that makes the "firefox -g" command fail to register breakpoints once we deal with a secondary thread.
