The kernel image (arch/frv/boot/Image) may -be loaded in one of three ways: - - (1) Load from Flash - - This is the simplest.

"None" is the default. - - <stop> is "7" or "8" for the number of bits per character. "8" is the - default. - - <flow> is "r" to use flow control (XCTS on serial port 2 only). The - default is to not use flow control. - - For example: - - console=ttyS0,115200 - - To use the first on-chip serial port at baud rate 115200, no parity, 8 - bits, and no flow control. - - (*) root=<xxxx> - - This specifies the device upon which the root filesystem resides. It - may be specified by major and minor number, device path, or even - partition uuid, if supported. For example: - - /dev/nfs NFS root filesystem - /dev/mtdblock3 Fourth RedBoot partition on the System Flash - PARTUUID=00112233-4455-6677-8899-AABBCCDDEEFF/PARTNROFF=1 - first partition after the partition with the given UUID - 253:0 Device with major 253 and minor 0 - - Authoritative information can be found in - "Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst". - - (*) rw - - Start with the root filesystem mounted Read/Write. - - The remaining components are all optional: - - (*) ip=<ip>::::<host>:<iface>:<cfg> - - Configure the network interface. If <cfg> is "off" then <ip> should - specify the IP address for the network device <iface>. <host> provide - the hostname for the device. - - If <cfg> is "bootp" or "dhcp", then all of these parameters will be - discovered by consulting a BOOTP or DHCP server. - - For example, the following might be used: - - ip=192.168.73.12::::frv:eth0:off - - This sets the IP address on the VDK motherboard RTL8029 ethernet chipset - (eth0) to be 192.168.73.12, and sets the board's hostname to be "frv". - - (*) nfsroot=<server>:<dir>[,v<vers>] - - This is mandatory if "root=/dev/nfs" is given as an option. It tells the - kernel the IP address of the NFS server providing its root filesystem, - and the pathname on that server of the filesystem. - - The NFS version to use can also be specified. v2 and v3 are supported by - Linux. - - For example: - - nfsroot=192.168.73.1:/nfsroot-frv - - (*) profile=1 - - Turns on the kernel profiler (accessible through /proc/profile). - - (*) console=gdb0 - - This can be used as an alternative to the "console=ttyS..." listed - above. I tells the kernel to pass the console output to GDB if the - gdbstub is compiled in to the kernel. - - If this is used, then the gdbstub passes the text to GDB, which then - simply dumps it to its standard output. - - (*) mem=<xxx>M - - Normally the kernel will work out how much SDRAM it has by reading the - SDRAM controller registers. That can be overridden with this - option. This allows the kernel to be told that it has <xxx> megabytes of - memory available. - - (*) init=<prog> [<arg> [<arg> [<arg> ...]]] - - This tells the kernel what program to run initially.

This permits the kernel to make uncached - accesses to this region. Userspace is not permitted to access it. - - The DAMPR/IAMPR protection registers not in use for any other purpose are - tiled over the top of the SDRAM such that: - - (1) The core kernel image is covered by as small a tile as possible - granting only the kernel access to the underlying data, whilst - making sure no SDRAM is actually made unavailable by this approach. - - (2) All other tiles are arranged to permit userspace access to the rest - of the SDRAM. - - Barring point (1), there is nothing to protect kernel data against - userspace damage - but this is uClinux. - - - (*) Exceptions and Fixups - - Since the FR40x and FR55x CPUs that do not have full MMUs generate - imprecise data error exceptions, there are currently no automatic fixup - services available in uClinux. This includes misaligned memory access - fixups. - - Userspace EFAULT errors can be trapped by issuing a MEMBAR instruction and - forcing the fault to happen there. - - On the FR451, however, data exceptions are mostly precise, and so - exception fixup handling is implemented as normal. - - - (*) Userspace Breakpoints - - The ptrace() system call supports the following userspace debugging - features: - - (1) Hardware assisted single step. - - (2) Breakpoint via the FR-V "BREAK" instruction. - - (3) Breakpoint via the FR-V "TIRA GR0, #1" instruction. - - (4) Syscall entry/exit trap. - - Each of the above generates a SIGTRAP. - - - (*) On-Chip Serial Ports - - The FR-V on-chip serial ports are made available as ttyS0 and ttyS1. Note - that if the GDB stub is compiled in, ttyS1 will not actually be available - as it will be being used for the GDB stub. - - These ports can be made by: - - mknod /dev/ttyS0 c 4 64 - mknod /dev/ttyS1 c 4 65 - - - (*) Maskable Interrupts - - Level 15 (Non-maskable) interrupts are dealt with by the GDB stub if - present, and cause a panic if not. If the GDB stub is present, ttyS1's - interrupts are rated at level 15. - - All other interrupts are distributed over the set of available priorities - so that no IRQs are shared where possible. The arch interrupt handling - routines attempt to disentangle the various sources available through the - CPU's own multiplexor, and those on off-CPU peripherals. - - - (*) Accessing PCI Devices - - Where PCI is available, care must be taken when dealing with drivers that - access PCI devices. PCI devices present their data in little-endian form, - but the CPU sees it in big-endian form.

Each page is accessible through a - separate minor number, thereby permitting each page to have its own - filesystem permissions set on the device file. - - The device files should be: - - mknod /dev/frv/workram0 c 240 0 - mknod /dev/frv/workram1 c 240 1 - mknod /dev/frv/workram2 c 240 2 - ... - - The driver will not permit the opening of any device file that does not - correspond to at least a partial page of WorkRAM. So the first device file - is the only one available on the FR451. If any other CPU is detected, none - of the devices will be openable. - - The devices can be accessed with read, write and llseek, and can also be - mmapped. If they're mmapped, they will only map at the appropriate - 0x7e8nnnnn address on linux and at the 0xfe8nnnnn address on uClinux. If - MAP_FIXED is not specified, the appropriate address will be chosen anyway. - - The mappings must be MAP_SHARED not MAP_PRIVATE, and must not be - PROT_EXEC. They must also start at file offset 0, and must not be longer - than one page in size. - - This driver can be configured by running make xconfig, and going to: - - (*) Character devices - - turn on "Fujitsu FR-V CPU WorkRAM support" - - - (*) Dynamic data cache write mode changing - - It is possible to view and to change the data cache's write mode through - the /proc/sys/frv/cache-mode file while the kernel is running. There are - two modes available: - - NAME MEANING - ===== ========================================== - wthru Data cache is in Write-Through mode - wback Data cache is in Write-Back/Copy-Back mode - - To read the cache mode: - - # cat /proc/sys/frv/cache-mode - wthru - - To change the cache mode: - - # echo wback >/proc/sys/frv/cache-mode - # cat /proc/sys/frv/cache-mode - wback - - - (*) MMU Context IDs and Pinning - - On MMU Linux the CPU supports the concept of a context ID in its MMU to - make it more efficient (TLB entries are labelled with a context ID to link - them to specific tasks). - - Normally once a context ID is allocated, it will remain affixed to a task - or CLONE_VM'd group of tasks for as long as it exists. However, since the - kernel is capable of supporting more tasks than there are possible ID - numbers, the kernel will pass context IDs from one task to another if - there are insufficient available. - - The context ID currently in use by a task can be viewed in /proc: - - # grep CXNR /proc/1/status - CXNR: 1 - - Note that kernel threads do not have a userspace context, and so will not - show a CXNR entry in that file. - - Under some circumstances, however, it is desirable to pin a context ID on - a process such that the kernel won't pass it on. This can be done by - writing the process ID of the target process to a special file: - - # echo 17 >/proc/sys/frv/pin-cxnr - - Reading from the file will then show the context ID pinned. - - # cat /proc/sys/frv/pin-cxnr - 4 - - The context ID will remain pinned as long as any process is using that - context, i.e.: when the all the subscribing processes have exited or - exec'd; or when an unpinning request happens: - - # echo 0 >/proc/sys/frv/pin-cxnr - - When there isn't a pinned context, the file shows -1: - - # cat /proc/sys/frv/pin-cxnr - -1 diff --git a/Documentation/frv/gdbinit

LINUX - ==================== - - -The kernel contains a GDB stub that talks GDB remote protocol across a serial -port. This permits GDB to single step through the kernel, set breakpoints and -trap exceptions that happen in kernel space and interrupt execution. It also -permits the NMI interrupt button or serial port events to jump the kernel into -the debugger. - -On the CPUs that have on-chip UARTs (FR400, FR403, FR405, FR555), the -GDB stub hijacks a serial port for its own purposes, and makes it -generate level 15 interrupts (NMI). The kernel proper cannot see the serial -port in question under these conditions. - -On the MB93091-VDK CPU boards, the GDB stub uses UART1, which would otherwise -be /dev/ttyS1. On the MB93093-PDK, the GDB stub uses UART0. Therefore, on the -PDK there is no externally accessible serial port and the serial port to -which the touch screen is attached becomes /dev/ttyS0. - -Note that the GDB stub runs entirely within CPU debug mode, and so should not -incur any exceptions or interrupts whilst it is active. In particular, note -that the clock will lose time since it is implemented in software. - - -================== -KERNEL PREPARATION -================== - -Firstly, a debuggable kernel must be built. To do this, unpack the kernel tree -and copy the configuration that you wish to use to .config. Then reconfigure -the following things on the "Kernel Hacking" tab: - - (*) "Include debugging information" - - Set this to "Y". This causes all C and Assembly files to be compiled - to include debugging information. - - (*) "In-kernel GDB stub" - - Set this to "Y". This causes the GDB stub to be compiled into the - kernel. - - (*) "Immediate activation" - - Set this to "Y" if you want the GDB stub to activate as soon as possible - and wait for GDB to connect. This allows you to start tracing right from - the beginning of start_kernel() in init/main.c. - - (*) "Console through GDB stub" - - Set this to "Y" if you wish to be able to use "console=gdb0" on the - command line. That tells the kernel to pass system console messages to - GDB (which then prints them on its standard output). This is useful when - debugging the serial drivers that'd otherwise be used to pass console - messages to the outside world. - -Then build as usual, download to the board and execute. Note that if -"Immediate activation" was selected, then the kernel will wait for GDB to -attach. If not, then the kernel will boot immediately and GDB will have to -interrupt it or wait for an exception to occur before doing anything with -the kernel. - - -========================= -KERNEL DEBUGGING WITH GDB -========================= - -Set the serial port on the computer that's going to run GDB to the appropriate -baud rate. Assuming the board's debug port is connected to ttyS0/COM1 on the -computer doing the debugging: - - stty -F /dev/ttyS0 115200 - -Then start GDB in the base of the kernel tree: - - frv-uclinux-gdb linux [uClinux] - -Or: - - frv-uclinux-gdb vmlinux [MMU linux] - -When the prompt appears: - - GNU gdb frv-031024 - Copyright 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc. - GDB is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and you are - welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain conditions. - Type "show copying" to see the conditions. - There is absolutely no warranty for GDB. Type "show warranty" for details. - This GDB was configured as "--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --target=frv-uclinux"... - (gdb) - -Attach to the board like this: - - (gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS0 - Remote debugging using /dev/ttyS0 - start_kernel () at init/main.c:395 - (gdb) - -This should show the appropriate lines from the source too.

What we do instead is use -the ICC2 condition code flags to note virtual disablement, such that if we -then do take an interrupt, we note the flag, really disable interrupts, set -another flag and resume execution at the point the interrupt happened. -Setting condition flags as a side effect of an arithmetic or logical -instruction is really fast.

Can be modified by logical instructions without - affecting the Carry flag. - - (*) CCR.ICC2.C [Carry flag] - - Clear to indicate hardware interrupts are really disabled, set otherwise. - - -What happens is this: - - (1) Normal kernel-mode operation. - - ICC2.Z is 0, ICC2.C is 1. - - (2) An interrupt occurs. The exception prologue examines ICC2.Z and - determines that nothing needs doing. This is done simply with an - unlikely BEQ instruction. - - (3) The interrupts are disabled (local_irq_disable) - - ICC2.Z is set to 1. - - (4) If interrupts were then re-enabled (local_irq_enable): - - ICC2.Z would be set to 0. - - A TIHI #2 instruction (trap #2 if condition HI - Z==0 && C==0) would - be used to trap if interrupts were now virtually enabled, but - physically disabled - which they're not, so the trap isn't taken. The - kernel would then be back to state (1). - - (5) An interrupt occurs. The exception prologue examines ICC2.Z and - determines that the interrupt shouldn't actually have happened. It - jumps aside, and there disabled interrupts by setting PSR.PIL to 14 - and then it clears ICC2.C. - - (6) If interrupts were then saved and disabled again (local_irq_save): - - ICC2.Z would be shifted into the save variable and masked off - (giving a 1). - - ICC2.Z would then be set to 1 (thus unchanged), and ICC2.C would be - unaffected (ie: 0). - - (7) If interrupts were then restored from state (6) (local_irq_restore): - - ICC2.Z would be set to indicate the result of XOR'ing the saved - value (ie: 1) with 1, which gives a result of 0 - thus leaving - ICC2.Z set. - - ICC2.C would remain unaffected (ie: 0). - - A TIHI #2 instruction would be used to again assay the current state, - but this would do nothing as Z==1. - - (8) If interrupts were then enabled (local_irq_enable): - - ICC2.Z would be cleared. ICC2.C would be left unaffected. Both - flags would now be 0. - - A TIHI #2 instruction again issued to assay the current state would - then trap as both Z==0 [interrupts virtually enabled] and C==0 - [interrupts really disabled] would then be true. - - (9) The trap #2 handler would simply enable hardware interrupts - (set PSR.PIL to 0), set ICC2.C to 1 and return. - -(10) Immediately upon returning, the pending interrupt would be taken. - -(11) The interrupt handler would take the path of actually processing the - interrupt (ICC2.Z is clear, BEQ fails as per step (2)). - -(12) The interrupt handler would then set ICC2.C to 1 since hardware - interrupts are definitely enabled - or else the kernel wouldn't be here. - -(13) On return from the interrupt handler, things would be back to state (1). - -This trap (#2) is only available in kernel mode.

The kernel can then access this page as it -wills. When it's finished, the kernel calls kunmap() to clear the PTE. - -kmap_atomic() does something slightly different. In the interests of speed, it chooses one of two -strategies: - - (1) If possible, kmap_atomic() attaches the requested page to one of DAMPR5 through DAMPR10 - register pairs; and the matching kunmap_atomic() clears the DAMPR. This makes high memory - support really fast as there's no need to flush the TLB or modify the page tables. The DAMLR - registers being used for this are preset during boot and don't change over the lifetime of the - process. There's a direct mapping between the first few kmap_atomic() types, DAMR number and - virtual address slot. - - However, there are more kmap_atomic() types defined than there are DAMR registers available, - so we fall back to: - - (2) kmap_atomic() uses a slot in the secondary frame (determined by the type parameter), and then - locks an entry in the TLB to translate that slot to the specified page. The number of slots is - obviously limited, and their positions are controlled such that each slot is matched by a - different line in the TLB. kunmap() ejects the entry from the TLB. - -Note that the first three kmap atomic types are really just declared as placeholders. The DAMPR -registers involved are actually modified directly. - -Also note that kmap() itself may sleep, kmap_atomic() may never sleep and both always succeed; -furthermore, a driver using kmap() may sleep before calling kunmap(), but may not sleep before -calling kunmap_atomic() if it had previously called kmap_atomic(). - - -=============================== -USING MORE THAN 256MB OF MEMORY -=============================== - -The kernel cannot access more than 256MB of memory directly. The physical layout, however, permits -up to 3GB of SDRAM (possibly 3.25GB) to be made available. By using CONFIG_HIGHMEM, the kernel can -allow userspace (by way of page tables) and itself (by way of kmap) to deal with the memory -allocation. - -External devices can, of course, still DMA to and from all of the SDRAM, even if the kernel can't -see it directly.

In +addition, there are commands to clear existing error injection commands and +to create custom pulses on the CEC bus. + +Most error injection commands can be executed for specific CEC opcodes or for +all opcodes (``any``). Each command also has a 'mode' which can be ``off`` +(can be used to turn off an existing error injection command), ``once`` +(the default) which will trigger the error injection only once for the next +received or transmitted message, ``always`` to always trigger the error +injection and ``toggle`` to toggle the error injection on or off for every +transmit or receive. + +So '``any rx-nack``' will NACK the next received CEC message, +'``any,always rx-nack``' will NACK all received CEC messages and +'``0x82,toggle rx-nack``' will only NACK if an Active Source message was +received and do that only for every other received message. + +After an error was injected with mode ``once`` the error injection command +is cleared automatically, so ``once`` is a one-time deal. + +All combinations of ``<op>`` and error injection commands can co-exist.

Normally + as soon as the receiver NACKs a byte the transmit will stop, but the + specification also allows that the full message is transmitted and only + at the end will the transmitter look at the ACK bit.

Normally receivers have a time-out after which + they will go back to the Idle state. + +``<op>[,<mode>] tx-early-eom`` + Set the EOM bit one byte too soon. This obviously only works for messages + of two bytes or more. The EOM bit will be set for the second-to-last byte + and not for the final byte.

The mechanism includes an algorithm which decides if and how to +change moderation parameters for a channel, usually by performing an analysis on +runtime data sampled from the system. Net DIM is such a mechanism. In each +iteration of the algorithm, it analyses a given sample of the data, compares it +to the previous sample and if required, it can decide to change some of the +interrupt moderation configuration fields. The data sample is composed of data +bandwidth, the number of packets and the number of events. The time between +samples is also measured. Net DIM compares the current and the previous data and +returns an adjusted interrupt moderation configuration object. In some cases, +the algorithm might decide not to change anything. The configuration fields are +the minimum duration (microseconds) allowed between events and the maximum +number of wanted packets per event. The Net DIM algorithm ascribes importance to +increase bandwidth over reducing interrupt rate. + + +Part II: The Net DIM Algorithm +=============================== + +Each iteration of the Net DIM algorithm follows these steps: +1. Calculates new data sample. +2. Compares it to previous sample. +3. Makes a decision - suggests interrupt moderation configuration fields. +4. Applies a schedule work function, which applies suggested configuration. + +The first two steps are straightforward, both the new and the previous data are +supplied by the driver registered to Net DIM. The previous data is the new data +supplied to the previous iteration. The comparison step checks the difference +between the new and previous data and decides on the result of the last step. +A step would result as "better" if bandwidth increases and as "worse" if +bandwidth reduces. If there is no change in bandwidth, the packet rate is +compared in a similar fashion - increase == "better" and decrease == "worse". +In case there is no change in the packet rate as well, the interrupt rate is +compared. Here the algorithm tries to optimize for lower interrupt rate so an +increase in the interrupt rate is considered "worse" and a decrease is +considered "better". Step #2 has an optimization for avoiding false results: it +only considers a difference between samples as valid if it is greater than a +certain percentage. Also, since Net DIM does not measure anything by itself, it +assumes the data provided by the driver is valid. + +Step #3 decides on the suggested configuration based on the result from step #2 +and the internal state of the algorithm. The states reflect the "direction" of +the algorithm: is it going left (reducing moderation), right (increasing +moderation) or standing still. Another optimization is that if a decision +to stay still is made multiple times, the interval between iterations of the +algorithm would increase in order to reduce calculation overhead. Also, after +"parking" on one of the most left or most right decisions, the algorithm may +decide to verify this decision by taking a step in the other direction. This is +done in order to avoid getting stuck in a "deep sleep" scenario. Once a +decision is made, an interrupt moderation configuration is selected from +the predefined profiles. + +The last step is to notify the registered driver that it should apply the +suggested configuration. This is done by scheduling a work function, defined by +the Net DIM API and provided by the registered driver. + +As you can see, Net DIM itself does not actively interact with the system. It +would have trouble making the correct decisions if the wrong data is supplied to +it and it would be useless if the work function would not apply the suggested +configuration. This does, however, allow the registered driver some room for +manoeuvre as it may provide partial data or ignore the algorithm suggestion +under some conditions. + + +Part III: Registering a Network Device to DIM +============================================== + +Net DIM API exposes the main function net_dim(struct net_dim *dim, +struct net_dim_sample end_sample). This function is the entry point to the Net +DIM algorithm and has to be called every time the driver would like to check if +it should change interrupt moderation parameters. The driver should provide two +data structures: struct net_dim and struct net_dim_sample. Struct net_dim +describes the state of DIM for a specific object (RX queue, TX queue, +other queues, etc.). This includes the current selected profile, previous data +samples, the callback function provided by the driver and more. +Struct net_dim_sample describes a data sample, which will be compared to the +data sample stored in struct net_dim in order to decide on the algorithm's next +step. The sample should include bytes, packets and interrupts, measured by +the driver. + +In order to use Net DIM from a networking driver, the driver needs to call the +main net_dim() function. The recommended method is to call net_dim() on each +interrupt. Since Net DIM has a built-in moderation and it might decide to skip +iterations under certain conditions, there is no need to moderate the net_dim() +calls as well. As mentioned above, the driver needs to provide an object of type +struct net_dim to the net_dim() function call. It is advised for each entity +using Net DIM to hold a struct net_dim as part of its data structure and use it +as the main Net DIM API object. The struct net_dim_sample should hold the latest +bytes, packets and interrupts count. No need to perform any calculations, just +include the raw data. + +The net_dim() call itself does not return anything. Instead Net DIM relies on +the driver to provide a callback function, which is called when the algorithm +decides to make a change in the interrupt moderation parameters. This callback +will be scheduled and run in a separate thread in order not to add overhead to +the data flow. After the work is done, Net DIM algorithm needs to be set to +the proper state in order to move to the next iteration. + + +Part IV: Example +================= + +The following code demonstrates how to register a driver to Net DIM.

Once ADI is enabled and version tags are set for ranges of +address space of a task, the processor will compare the tag in pointers +to memory in these ranges to the version set by the application +previously. Access to memory is granted only if the tag in given pointer +matches the tag set by the application. In case of mismatch, processor +raises an exception. + +Following steps must be taken by a task to enable ADI fully: + +1. Set the user mode PSTATE.mcde bit.

This step must + be repeated for entire page to set tags for entire page. + +ADI block size for the platform is provided by the hypervisor to kernel +in machine description tables. Hypervisor also provides the number of +top bits in the virtual address that specify the version tag. Once +version tag has been set for a memory location, the tag is stored in the +physical memory and the same tag must be present in the ADI version tag +bits of the virtual address being presented to the MMU. For example on +SPARC M7 processor, MMU uses bits 63-60 for version tags and ADI block +size is same as cacheline size which is 64 bytes.

(assuming that you have ftrace configured into your kernel) + +After mounting tracefs you will have access to the control and output files +of ftrace. Here is a list of some of the key files: + + + Note: all time values are in microseconds. + + current_tracer: + + This is used to set or display the current tracer + that is configured. + + available_tracers: + + This holds the different types of tracers that + have been compiled into the kernel. The + tracers listed here can be configured by + echoing their name into current_tracer. + + tracing_on: + + This sets or displays whether writing to the trace + ring buffer is enabled. Echo 0 into this file to disable + the tracer or 1 to enable it. Note, this only disables + writing to the ring buffer, the tracing overhead may + still be occurring. + + The kernel function tracing_off() can be used within the + kernel to disable writing to the ring buffer, which will + set this file to "0". User space can re-enable tracing by + echoing "1" into the file. + + Note, the function and event trigger "traceoff" will also + set this file to zero and stop tracing. Which can also + be re-enabled by user space using this file. + + trace: + + This file holds the output of the trace in a human + readable format (described below). Note, tracing is temporarily + disabled while this file is being read (opened). + + trace_pipe: + + The output is the same as the "trace" file but this + file is meant to be streamed with live tracing. + Reads from this file will block until new data is + retrieved. Unlike the "trace" file, this file is a + consumer. This means reading from this file causes + sequential reads to display more current data. Once + data is read from this file, it is consumed, and + will not be read again with a sequential read. The + "trace" file is static, and if the tracer is not + adding more data, it will display the same + information every time it is read. This file will not + disable tracing while being read. + + trace_options: + + This file lets the user control the amount of data + that is displayed in one of the above output + files. Options also exist to modify how a tracer + or events work (stack traces, timestamps, etc). + + options: + + This is a directory that has a file for every available + trace option (also in trace_options). Options may also be set + or cleared by writing a "1" or "0" respectively into the + corresponding file with the option name. + + tracing_max_latency: + + Some of the tracers record the max latency. + For example, the maximum time that interrupts are disabled. + The maximum time is saved in this file. The max trace will also be + stored, and displayed by "trace". A new max trace will only be + recorded if the latency is greater than the value in this file + (in microseconds). + + By echoing in a time into this file, no latency will be recorded + unless it is greater than the time in this file. + + tracing_thresh: + + Some latency tracers will record a trace whenever the + latency is greater than the number in this file. + Only active when the file contains a number greater than 0. + (in microseconds) + + buffer_size_kb: + + This sets or displays the number of kilobytes each CPU + buffer holds. By default, the trace buffers are the same size + for each CPU. The displayed number is the size of the + CPU buffer and not total size of all buffers. The + trace buffers are allocated in pages (blocks of memory + that the kernel uses for allocation, usually 4 KB in size). + If the last page allocated has room for more bytes + than requested, the rest of the page will be used, + making the actual allocation bigger than requested or shown. + ( Note, the size may not be a multiple of the page size + due to buffer management meta-data. ) + + Buffer sizes for individual CPUs may vary + (see "per_cpu/cpu0/buffer_size_kb" below), and if they do + this file will show "X". + + buffer_total_size_kb: + + This displays the total combined size of all the trace buffers. + + free_buffer: + + If a process is performing tracing, and the ring buffer should be + shrunk "freed" when the process is finished, even if it were to be + killed by a signal, this file can be used for that purpose. On close + of this file, the ring buffer will be resized to its minimum size. + Having a process that is tracing also open this file, when the process + exits its file descriptor for this file will be closed, and in doing so, + the ring buffer will be "freed". + + It may also stop tracing if disable_on_free option is set. + + tracing_cpumask: + + This is a mask that lets the user only trace on specified CPUs. + The format is a hex string representing the CPUs. + + set_ftrace_filter: + + When dynamic ftrace is configured in (see the + section below "dynamic ftrace"), the code is dynamically + modified (code text rewrite) to disable calling of the + function profiler (mcount).

This file + displays all functions that have a callback attached to them + as well as the number of callbacks that have been attached. + Note, a callback may also call multiple functions which will + not be listed in this count. + + If the callback registered to be traced by a function with + the "save regs" attribute (thus even more overhead), a 'R' + will be displayed on the same line as the function that + is returning registers. + + If the callback registered to be traced by a function with + the "ip modify" attribute (thus the regs->ip can be changed), + an 'I' will be displayed on the same line as the function that + can be overridden. + + If the architecture supports it, it will also show what callback + is being directly called by the function. If the count is greater + than 1 it most likely will be ftrace_ops_list_func(). + + If the callback of the function jumps to a trampoline that is + specific to a the callback and not the standard trampoline, + its address will be printed as well as the function that the + trampoline calls. + + function_profile_enabled: + + When set it will enable all functions with either the function + tracer, or if configured, the function graph tracer. It will + keep a histogram of the number of functions that were called + and if the function graph tracer was configured, it will also keep + track of the time spent in those functions.

By default, it is enabled. + + saved_cmdlines_size: + + By default, 128 comms are saved (see "saved_cmdlines" above). To + increase or decrease the amount of comms that are cached, echo + in a the number of comms to cache, into this file. + + saved_tgids: + + If the option "record-tgid" is set, on each scheduling context switch + the Task Group ID of a task is saved in a table mapping the PID of + the thread to its TGID. By default, the "record-tgid" option is + disabled. + + snapshot: + + This displays the "snapshot" buffer and also lets the user + take a snapshot of the current running trace. + See the "Snapshot" section below for more details. + + stack_max_size: + + When the stack tracer is activated, this will display the + maximum stack size it has encountered. + See the "Stack Trace" section below. + + stack_trace: + + This displays the stack back trace of the largest stack + that was encountered when the stack tracer is activated. + See the "Stack Trace" section below. + + stack_trace_filter: + + This is similar to "set_ftrace_filter" but it limits what + functions the stack tracer will check. + + trace_clock: + + Whenever an event is recorded into the ring buffer, a + "timestamp" is added. This stamp comes from a specified + clock. By default, ftrace uses the "local" clock. This + clock is very fast and strictly per cpu, but on some + systems it may not be monotonic with respect to other + CPUs. In other words, the local clocks may not be in sync + with local clocks on other CPUs. + + Usual clocks for tracing:: + + # cat trace_clock + [local] global counter x86-tsc + + The clock with the square brackets around it is the one in effect. + + local: + Default clock, but may not be in sync across CPUs + + global: + This clock is in sync with all CPUs but may + be a bit slower than the local clock. + + counter: + This is not a clock at all, but literally an atomic + counter. It counts up one by one, but is in sync + with all CPUs. This is useful when you need to + know exactly the order events occurred with respect to + each other on different CPUs. + + uptime: + This uses the jiffies counter and the time stamp + is relative to the time since boot up. + + perf: + This makes ftrace use the same clock that perf uses. + Eventually perf will be able to read ftrace buffers + and this will help out in interleaving the data. + + x86-tsc: + Architectures may define their own clocks. For + example, x86 uses its own TSC cycle clock here. + + ppc-tb: + This uses the powerpc timebase register value. + This is in sync across CPUs and can also be used + to correlate events across hypervisor/guest if + tb_offset is known. + + mono: + This uses the fast monotonic clock (CLOCK_MONOTONIC) + which is monotonic and is subject to NTP rate adjustments. + + mono_raw: + This is the raw monotonic clock (CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW) + which is montonic but is not subject to any rate adjustments + and ticks at the same rate as the hardware clocksource. + + boot: + Same as mono. Used to be a separate clock which accounted + for the time spent in suspend while CLOCK_MONOTONIC did + not. + + To set a clock, simply echo the clock name into this file:: + + # echo global > trace_clock + + trace_marker: + + This is a very useful file for synchronizing user space + with events happening in the kernel. Writing strings into + this file will be written into the ftrace buffer. + + It is useful in applications to open this file at the start + of the application and just reference the file descriptor + for the file:: + + void trace_write(const char *fmt, ...) + { + va_list ap; + char buf[256]; + int n; + + if (trace_fd < 0) + return; + + va_start(ap, fmt); + n = vsnprintf(buf, 256, fmt, ap); + va_end(ap); + + write(trace_fd, buf, n); + } + + start:: + + trace_fd = open("trace_marker", WR_ONLY); + + trace_marker_raw: + + This is similar to trace_marker above, but is meant for for binary data + to be written to it, where a tool can be used to parse the data + from trace_pipe_raw. + + uprobe_events: + + Add dynamic tracepoints in programs. + See uprobetracer.txt + + uprobe_profile: + + Uprobe statistics. See uprobetrace.txt + + instances: + + This is a way to make multiple trace buffers where different + events can be recorded in different buffers. + See "Instances" section below. + + events: + + This is the trace event directory. It holds event tracepoints + (also known as static tracepoints) that have been compiled + into the kernel. It shows what event tracepoints exist + and how they are grouped by system. There are "enable" + files at various levels that can enable the tracepoints + when a "1" is written to them. + + See events.txt for more information. + + set_event: + + By echoing in the event into this file, will enable that event. + + See events.txt for more information. + + available_events: + + A list of events that can be enabled in tracing. + + See events.txt for more information. + + hwlat_detector: + + Directory for the Hardware Latency Detector. + See "Hardware Latency Detector" section below. + + per_cpu: + + This is a directory that contains the trace per_cpu information. + + per_cpu/cpu0/buffer_size_kb: + + The ftrace buffer is defined per_cpu. That is, there's a separate + buffer for each CPU to allow writes to be done atomically, + and free from cache bouncing. These buffers may have different + size buffers. This file is similar to the buffer_size_kb + file, but it only displays or sets the buffer size for the + specific CPU. (here cpu0). + + per_cpu/cpu0/trace: + + This is similar to the "trace" file, but it will only display + the data specific for the CPU. If written to, it only clears + the specific CPU buffer. + + per_cpu/cpu0/trace_pipe + + This is similar to the "trace_pipe" file, and is a consuming + read, but it will only display (and consume) the data specific + for the CPU. + + per_cpu/cpu0/trace_pipe_raw + + For tools that can parse the ftrace ring buffer binary format, + the trace_pipe_raw file can be used to extract the data + from the ring buffer directly. With the use of the splice() + system call, the buffer data can be quickly transferred to + a file or to the network where a server is collecting the + data. + + Like trace_pipe, this is a consuming reader, where multiple + reads will always produce different data. + + per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot: + + This is similar to the main "snapshot" file, but will only + snapshot the current CPU (if supported). It only displays + the content of the snapshot for a given CPU, and if + written to, only clears this CPU buffer. + + per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot_raw: + + Similar to the trace_pipe_raw, but will read the binary format + from the snapshot buffer for the given CPU. + + per_cpu/cpu0/stats: + + This displays certain stats about the ring buffer: + + entries: + The number of events that are still in the buffer. + + overrun: + The number of lost events due to overwriting when + the buffer was full. + + commit overrun: + Should always be zero. + This gets set if so many events happened within a nested + event (ring buffer is re-entrant), that it fills the + buffer and starts dropping events. + + bytes: + Bytes actually read (not overwritten). + + oldest event ts: + The oldest timestamp in the buffer + + now ts: + The current timestamp + + dropped events: + Events lost due to overwrite option being off. + + read events: + The number of events read. + +The Tracers +----------- + +Here is the list of current tracers that may be configured. + + "function" + + Function call tracer to trace all kernel functions. + + "function_graph" + + Similar to the function tracer except that the + function tracer probes the functions on their entry + whereas the function graph tracer traces on both entry + and exit of the functions. It then provides the ability + to draw a graph of function calls similar to C code + source. + + "blk" + + The block tracer. The tracer used by the blktrace user + application. + + "hwlat" + + The Hardware Latency tracer is used to detect if the hardware + produces any latency. See "Hardware Latency Detector" section + below. + + "irqsoff" + + Traces the areas that disable interrupts and saves + the trace with the longest max latency. + See tracing_max_latency. When a new max is recorded, + it replaces the old trace. It is best to view this + trace with the latency-format option enabled, which + happens automatically when the tracer is selected. + + "preemptoff" + + Similar to irqsoff but traces and records the amount of + time for which preemption is disabled. + + "preemptirqsoff" + + Similar to irqsoff and preemptoff, but traces and + records the largest time for which irqs and/or preemption + is disabled. + + "wakeup" + + Traces and records the max latency that it takes for + the highest priority task to get scheduled after + it has been woken up. + Traces all tasks as an average developer would expect. + + "wakeup_rt" + + Traces and records the max latency that it takes for just + RT tasks (as the current "wakeup" does). This is useful + for those interested in wake up timings of RT tasks. + + "wakeup_dl" + + Traces and records the max latency that it takes for + a SCHED_DEADLINE task to be woken (as the "wakeup" and + "wakeup_rt" does). + + "mmiotrace" + + A special tracer that is used to trace binary module. + It will trace all the calls that a module makes to the + hardware. Everything it writes and reads from the I/O + as well. + + "branch" + + This tracer can be configured when tracing likely/unlikely + calls within the kernel. It will trace when a likely and + unlikely branch is hit and if it was correct in its prediction + of being correct. + + "nop" + + This is the "trace nothing" tracer. To remove all + tracers from tracing simply echo "nop" into + current_tracer. + + +Examples of using the tracer +---------------------------- + +Here are typical examples of using the tracers when controlling +them only with the tracefs interface (without using any +user-land utilities). + +Output format: +-------------- + +Here is an example of the output format of the file "trace":: + + # tracer: function + # + # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 140080/250280 #P:4 + # + # _-----=> irqs-off + # / _----=> need-resched + # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq + # || / _--=> preempt-depth + # ||| / delay + # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION + # | | | |||| | | + bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993652: sys_close <-system_call_fastpath + bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993653: __close_fd <-sys_close + bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993653: _raw_spin_lock <-__close_fd + sshd-1974 [003] .... 17284.993653: __srcu_read_unlock <-fsnotify + bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993654: add_preempt_count <-_raw_spin_lock + bash-1977 [000] ...1 17284.993655: _raw_spin_unlock <-__close_fd + bash-1977 [000] ...1 17284.993656: sub_preempt_count <-_raw_spin_unlock + bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993657: filp_close <-__close_fd + bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993657: dnotify_flush <-filp_close + sshd-1974 [003] .... 17284.993658: sys_select <-system_call_fastpath + .... + +A header is printed with the tracer name that is represented by +the trace. In this case the tracer is "function". Then it shows the +number of events in the buffer as well as the total number of entries +that were written. The difference is the number of entries that were +lost due to the buffer filling up (250280 - 140080 = 110200 events +lost). + +The header explains the content of the events. Task name "bash", the task +PID "1977", the CPU that it was running on "000", the latency format +(explained below), the timestamp in <secs>.<usecs> format, the +function name that was traced "sys_close" and the parent function that +called this function "system_call_fastpath". The timestamp is the time +at which the function was entered. + +Latency trace format +-------------------- + +When the latency-format option is enabled or when one of the latency +tracers is set, the trace file gives somewhat more information to see +why a latency happened.

The number +of trace entries displayed and the total number (both are four: #4/4). +VP, KP, SP, and HP are always zero and are reserved for later use. +#P is the number of online CPUs (#P:4). + +The task is the process that was running when the latency +occurred.

Enabling this + with the "nop" tracer is the same as just enabling the + "branch" tracer. + +.. tip:: Some tracers have their own options. They only appear in this + file when the tracer is active. They always appear in the + options directory. + + +Here are the per tracer options: + +Options for function tracer: + + func_stack_trace + When set, a stack trace is recorded after every + function that is recorded. NOTE! Limit the functions + that are recorded before enabling this, with + "set_ftrace_filter" otherwise the system performance + will be critically degraded. Remember to disable + this option before clearing the function filter. + +Options for function_graph tracer: + + Since the function_graph tracer has a slightly different output + it has its own options to control what is displayed. + + funcgraph-overrun + When set, the "overrun" of the graph stack is + displayed after each function traced. The + overrun, is when the stack depth of the calls + is greater than what is reserved for each task. + Each task has a fixed array of functions to + trace in the call graph. If the depth of the + calls exceeds that, the function is not traced. + The overrun is the number of functions missed + due to exceeding this array. + + funcgraph-cpu + When set, the CPU number of the CPU where the trace + occurred is displayed. + + funcgraph-overhead + When set, if the function takes longer than + A certain amount, then a delay marker is + displayed. See "delay" above, under the + header description. + + funcgraph-proc + Unlike other tracers, the process' command line + is not displayed by default, but instead only + when a task is traced in and out during a context + switch. Enabling this options has the command + of each process displayed at every line. + + funcgraph-duration + At the end of each function (the return) + the duration of the amount of time in the + function is displayed in microseconds. + + funcgraph-abstime + When set, the timestamp is displayed at each line. + + funcgraph-irqs + When disabled, functions that happen inside an + interrupt will not be traced. + + funcgraph-tail + When set, the return event will include the function + that it represents. By default this is off, and + only a closing curly bracket "}" is displayed for + the return of a function. + + sleep-time + When running function graph tracer, to include + the time a task schedules out in its function. + When enabled, it will account time the task has been + scheduled out as part of the function call. + + graph-time + When running function profiler with function graph tracer, + to include the time to call nested functions. When this is + not set, the time reported for the function will only + include the time the function itself executed for, not the + time for functions that it called. + +Options for blk tracer: + + blk_classic + Shows a more minimalistic output. + + +irqsoff +------- + +When interrupts are disabled, the CPU can not react to any other +external event (besides NMIs and SMIs). This prevents the timer +interrupt from triggering or the mouse interrupt from letting +the kernel know of a new mouse event. The result is a latency +with the reaction time. + +The irqsoff tracer tracks the time for which interrupts are +disabled. When a new maximum latency is hit, the tracer saves +the trace leading up to that latency point so that every time a +new maximum is reached, the old saved trace is discarded and the +new trace is saved. + +To reset the maximum, echo 0 into tracing_max_latency.

A more interesting +trace is to concentrate only on Real-Time tasks. + +wakeup_rt +--------- + +In a Real-Time environment it is very important to know the +wakeup time it takes for the highest priority task that is woken +up to the time that it executes. This is also known as "schedule +latency". I stress the point that this is about RT tasks. It is +also important to know the scheduling latency of non-RT tasks, +but the average schedule latency is better for non-RT tasks. +Tools like LatencyTop are more appropriate for such +measurements. + +Real-Time environments are interested in the worst case latency. +That is the longest latency it takes for something to happen, +and not the average. We can have a very fast scheduler that may +only have a large latency once in a while, but that would not +work well with Real-Time tasks. The wakeup_rt tracer was designed +to record the worst case wakeups of RT tasks. Non-RT tasks are +not recorded because the tracer only records one worst case and +tracing non-RT tasks that are unpredictable will overwrite the +worst case latency of RT tasks (just run the normal wakeup +tracer for a while to see that effect). + +Since this tracer only deals with RT tasks, we will run this +slightly differently than we did with the previous tracers. +Instead of performing an 'ls', we will run 'sleep 1' under +'chrt' which changes the priority of the task. +:: + + # echo 0 > options/function-trace + # echo wakeup_rt > current_tracer + # echo 1 > tracing_on + # echo 0 > tracing_max_latency + # chrt -f 5 sleep 1 + # echo 0 > tracing_on + # cat trace + # tracer: wakeup + # + # tracer: wakeup_rt + # + # wakeup_rt latency trace v1.1.5 on 3.8.0-test+ + # -------------------------------------------------------------------- + # latency: 5 us, #4/4, CPU#3 | (M:preempt VP:0, KP:0, SP:0 HP:0 #P:4) + # ----------------- + # | task: sleep-2389 (uid:0 nice:0 policy:1 rt_prio:5) + # ----------------- + # + # _------=> CPU# + # / _-----=> irqs-off + # | / _----=> need-resched + # || / _---=> hardirq/softirq + # ||| / _--=> preempt-depth + # |||| / delay + # cmd pid ||||| time | caller + # \ / ||||| \ | / + <idle>-0 3d.h4 0us : 0:120:R + [003] 2389: 94:R sleep + <idle>-0 3d.h4 1us+: ttwu_do_activate.constprop.87 <-try_to_wake_up + <idle>-0 3d..3 5us : __schedule <-schedule + <idle>-0 3d..3 5us : 0:120:R ==> [003] 2389: 94:R sleep + + +Running this on an idle system, we see that it only took 5 microseconds +to perform the task switch.

The way +this works is the mcount function call (placed at the start of +every kernel function, produced by the -pg switch in gcc), +starts of pointing to a simple return. (Enabling FTRACE will +include the -pg switch in the compiling of the kernel.) + +At compile time every C file object is run through the +recordmcount program (located in the scripts directory). This +program will parse the ELF headers in the C object to find all +the locations in the .text section that call mcount. Starting +with gcc verson 4.6, the -mfentry has been added for x86, which +calls "__fentry__" instead of "mcount". Which is called before +the creation of the stack frame. + +Note, not all sections are traced. They may be prevented by either +a notrace, or blocked another way and all inline functions are not +traced. Check the "available_filter_functions" file to see what functions +can be traced. + +A section called "__mcount_loc" is created that holds +references to all the mcount/fentry call sites in the .text section. +The recordmcount program re-links this section back into the +original object. The final linking stage of the kernel will add all these +references into a single table. + +On boot up, before SMP is initialized, the dynamic ftrace code +scans this table and updates all the locations into nops. It +also records the locations, which are added to the +available_filter_functions list. Modules are processed as they +are loaded and before they are executed. When a module is +unloaded, it also removes its functions from the ftrace function +list. This is automatic in the module unload code, and the +module author does not need to worry about it. + +When tracing is enabled, the process of modifying the function +tracepoints is dependent on architecture. The old method is to use +kstop_machine to prevent races with the CPUs executing code being +modified (which can cause the CPU to do undesirable things, especially +if the modified code crosses cache (or page) boundaries), and the nops are +patched back to calls. But this time, they do not call mcount +(which is just a function stub). They now call into the ftrace +infrastructure. + +The new method of modifying the function tracepoints is to place +a breakpoint at the location to be modified, sync all CPUs, modify +the rest of the instruction not covered by the breakpoint. Sync +all CPUs again, and then remove the breakpoint with the finished +version to the ftrace call site. + +Some archs do not even need to monkey around with the synchronization, +and can just slap the new code on top of the old without any +problems with other CPUs executing it at the same time. + +One special side-effect to the recording of the functions being +traced is that we can now selectively choose which functions we +wish to trace and which ones we want the mcount calls to remain +as nops. + +Two files are used, one for enabling and one for disabling the +tracing of specified functions.

The + parameter defines the module. For example, if only the write* + functions in the ext3 module are desired, run: + + echo 'write*:mod:ext3' > set_ftrace_filter + + This command interacts with the filter in the same way as + filtering based on function names. Thus, adding more functions + in a different module is accomplished by appending (>>) to the + filter file.

The parameter determines how many times the + tracing system is turned on and off. If unspecified, there is + no limit. For example, to disable tracing when a schedule bug + is hit the first 5 times, run:: + + echo '__schedule_bug:traceoff:5' > set_ftrace_filter + + To always disable tracing when __schedule_bug is hit:: + + echo '__schedule_bug:traceoff' > set_ftrace_filter + + These commands are cumulative whether or not they are appended + to set_ftrace_filter. To remove a command, prepend it by '!' + and drop the parameter:: + + echo '!__schedule_bug:traceoff:0' > set_ftrace_filter + + The above removes the traceoff command for __schedule_bug + that have a counter.

Steven Rostedt - -Introduction ------------- - -Ftrace is an internal tracer designed to help out developers and -designers of systems to find what is going on inside the kernel. -It can be used for debugging or analyzing latencies and -performance issues that take place outside of user-space. - -Although ftrace is typically considered the function tracer, it -is really a frame work of several assorted tracing utilities. -There's latency tracing to examine what occurs between interrupts -disabled and enabled, as well as for preemption and from a time -a task is woken to the task is actually scheduled in. - -One of the most common uses of ftrace is the event tracing. -Through out the kernel is hundreds of static event points that -can be enabled via the tracefs file system to see what is -going on in certain parts of the kernel. - -See events.txt for more information. - - -Implementation Details ----------------------- - -See ftrace-design.txt for details for arch porters and such. - - -The File System ---------------- - -Ftrace uses the tracefs file system to hold the control files as -well as the files to display output. - -When tracefs is configured into the kernel (which selecting any ftrace -option will do) the directory /sys/kernel/tracing will be created. To mount -this directory, you can add to your /etc/fstab file: - - tracefs /sys/kernel/tracing tracefs defaults 0 0 - -Or you can mount it at run time with: - - mount -t tracefs nodev /sys/kernel/tracing - -For quicker access to that directory you may want to make a soft link to -it: - - ln -s /sys/kernel/tracing /tracing - - *** NOTICE *** - -Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs -file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. -For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system, -the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at: - - /sys/kernel/debug/tracing - -All files located in the tracefs file system will be located in that -debugfs file system directory as well. - - *** NOTICE *** - -Any selected ftrace option will also create the tracefs file system. -The rest of the document will assume that you are in the ftrace directory -(cd /sys/kernel/tracing) and will only concentrate on the files within that -directory and not distract from the content with the extended -"/sys/kernel/tracing" path name. - -That's it! (assuming that you have ftrace configured into your kernel) - -After mounting tracefs you will have access to the control and output files -of ftrace. Here is a list of some of the key files: - - - Note: all time values are in microseconds. - - current_tracer: - - This is used to set or display the current tracer - that is configured. - - available_tracers: - - This holds the different types of tracers that - have been compiled into the kernel. The - tracers listed here can be configured by - echoing their name into current_tracer. - - tracing_on: - - This sets or displays whether writing to the trace - ring buffer is enabled. Echo 0 into this file to disable - the tracer or 1 to enable it. Note, this only disables - writing to the ring buffer, the tracing overhead may - still be occurring. - - The kernel function tracing_off() can be used within the - kernel to disable writing to the ring buffer, which will - set this file to "0". User space can re-enable tracing by - echoing "1" into the file. - - Note, the function and event trigger "traceoff" will also - set this file to zero and stop tracing. Which can also - be re-enabled by user space using this file. - - trace: - - This file holds the output of the trace in a human - readable format (described below). Note, tracing is temporarily - disabled while this file is being read (opened). - - trace_pipe: - - The output is the same as the "trace" file but this - file is meant to be streamed with live tracing. - Reads from this file will block until new data is - retrieved. Unlike the "trace" file, this file is a - consumer. This means reading from this file causes - sequential reads to display more current data. Once - data is read from this file, it is consumed, and - will not be read again with a sequential read. The - "trace" file is static, and if the tracer is not - adding more data, it will display the same - information every time it is read. This file will not - disable tracing while being read. - - trace_options: - - This file lets the user control the amount of data - that is displayed in one of the above output - files. Options also exist to modify how a tracer - or events work (stack traces, timestamps, etc). - - options: - - This is a directory that has a file for every available - trace option (also in trace_options). Options may also be set - or cleared by writing a "1" or "0" respectively into the - corresponding file with the option name. - - tracing_max_latency: - - Some of the tracers record the max latency. - For example, the maximum time that interrupts are disabled. - The maximum time is saved in this file. The max trace will also be - stored, and displayed by "trace". A new max trace will only be - recorded if the latency is greater than the value in this file - (in microseconds). - - By echoing in a time into this file, no latency will be recorded - unless it is greater than the time in this file. - - tracing_thresh: - - Some latency tracers will record a trace whenever the - latency is greater than the number in this file. - Only active when the file contains a number greater than 0. - (in microseconds) - - buffer_size_kb: - - This sets or displays the number of kilobytes each CPU - buffer holds. By default, the trace buffers are the same size - for each CPU. The displayed number is the size of the - CPU buffer and not total size of all buffers. The - trace buffers are allocated in pages (blocks of memory - that the kernel uses for allocation, usually 4 KB in size). - If the last page allocated has room for more bytes - than requested, the rest of the page will be used, - making the actual allocation bigger than requested or shown. - ( Note, the size may not be a multiple of the page size - due to buffer management meta-data. ) - - Buffer sizes for individual CPUs may vary - (see "per_cpu/cpu0/buffer_size_kb" below), and if they do - this file will show "X". - - buffer_total_size_kb: - - This displays the total combined size of all the trace buffers. - - free_buffer: - - If a process is performing tracing, and the ring buffer should be - shrunk "freed" when the process is finished, even if it were to be - killed by a signal, this file can be used for that purpose. On close - of this file, the ring buffer will be resized to its minimum size. - Having a process that is tracing also open this file, when the process - exits its file descriptor for this file will be closed, and in doing so, - the ring buffer will be "freed". - - It may also stop tracing if disable_on_free option is set. - - tracing_cpumask: - - This is a mask that lets the user only trace on specified CPUs. - The format is a hex string representing the CPUs. - - set_ftrace_filter: - - When dynamic ftrace is configured in (see the - section below "dynamic ftrace"), the code is dynamically - modified (code text rewrite) to disable calling of the - function profiler (mcount). This lets tracing be configured - in with practically no overhead in performance. This also - has a side effect of enabling or disabling specific functions - to be traced. Echoing names of functions into this file - will limit the trace to only those functions. - - The functions listed in "available_filter_functions" are what - can be written into this file. - - This interface also allows for commands to be used. See the - "Filter commands" section for more details. - - set_ftrace_notrace: - - This has an effect opposite to that of - set_ftrace_filter. Any function that is added here will not - be traced. If a function exists in both set_ftrace_filter - and set_ftrace_notrace, the function will _not_ be traced. - - set_ftrace_pid: - - Have the function tracer only trace the threads whose PID are - listed in this file. - - If the "function-fork" option is set, then when a task whose - PID is listed in this file forks, the child's PID will - automatically be added to this file, and the child will be - traced by the function tracer as well. This option will also - cause PIDs of tasks that exit to be removed from the file. - - set_event_pid: - - Have the events only trace a task with a PID listed in this file. - Note, sched_switch and sched_wake_up will also trace events - listed in this file. - - To have the PIDs of children of tasks with their PID in this file - added on fork, enable the "event-fork" option. That option will also - cause the PIDs of tasks to be removed from this file when the task - exits. - - set_graph_function: - - Functions listed in this file will cause the function graph - tracer to only trace these functions and the functions that - they call. (See the section "dynamic ftrace" for more details). - - set_graph_notrace: - - Similar to set_graph_function, but will disable function graph - tracing when the function is hit until it exits the function. - This makes it possible to ignore tracing functions that are called - by a specific function. - - available_filter_functions: - - This lists the functions that ftrace has processed and can trace. - These are the function names that you can pass to - "set_ftrace_filter" or "set_ftrace_notrace". - (See the section "dynamic ftrace" below for more details.) - - dyn_ftrace_total_info: - - This file is for debugging purposes. The number of functions that - have been converted to nops and are available to be traced. - - enabled_functions: - - This file is more for debugging ftrace, but can also be useful - in seeing if any function has a callback attached to it. - Not only does the trace infrastructure use ftrace function - trace utility, but other subsystems might too. This file - displays all functions that have a callback attached to them - as well as the number of callbacks that have been attached. - Note, a callback may also call multiple functions which will - not be listed in this count. - - If the callback registered to be traced by a function with - the "save regs" attribute (thus even more overhead), a 'R' - will be displayed on the same line as the function that - is returning registers. - - If the callback registered to be traced by a function with - the "ip modify" attribute (thus the regs->ip can be changed), - an 'I' will be displayed on the same line as the function that - can be overridden. - - If the architecture supports it, it will also show what callback - is being directly called by the function. If the count is greater - than 1 it most likely will be ftrace_ops_list_func(). - - If the callback of the function jumps to a trampoline that is - specific to a the callback and not the standard trampoline, - its address will be printed as well as the function that the - trampoline calls. - - function_profile_enabled: - - When set it will enable all functions with either the function - tracer, or if configured, the function graph tracer. It will - keep a histogram of the number of functions that were called - and if the function graph tracer was configured, it will also keep - track of the time spent in those functions. The histogram - content can be displayed in the files: - - trace_stats/function<cpu> ( function0, function1, etc). - - trace_stats: - - A directory that holds different tracing stats. - - kprobe_events: - - Enable dynamic trace points. See kprobetrace.txt. - - kprobe_profile: - - Dynamic trace points stats. See kprobetrace.txt. - - max_graph_depth: - - Used with the function graph tracer. This is the max depth - it will trace into a function. Setting this to a value of - one will show only the first kernel function that is called - from user space. - - printk_formats: - - This is for tools that read the raw format files. If an event in - the ring buffer references a string, only a pointer to the string - is recorded into the buffer and not the string itself. This prevents - tools from knowing what that string was. This file displays the string - and address for the string allowing tools to map the pointers to what - the strings were. - - saved_cmdlines: - - Only the pid of the task is recorded in a trace event unless - the event specifically saves the task comm as well. Ftrace - makes a cache of pid mappings to comms to try to display - comms for events. If a pid for a comm is not listed, then - "<...>" is displayed in the output. - - If the option "record-cmd" is set to "0", then comms of tasks - will not be saved during recording. By default, it is enabled. - - saved_cmdlines_size: - - By default, 128 comms are saved (see "saved_cmdlines" above). To - increase or decrease the amount of comms that are cached, echo - in a the number of comms to cache, into this file. - - saved_tgids: - - If the option "record-tgid" is set, on each scheduling context switch - the Task Group ID of a task is saved in a table mapping the PID of - the thread to its TGID. By default, the "record-tgid" option is - disabled. - - snapshot: - - This displays the "snapshot" buffer and also lets the user - take a snapshot of the current running trace. - See the "Snapshot" section below for more details. - - stack_max_size: - - When the stack tracer is activated, this will display the - maximum stack size it has encountered. - See the "Stack Trace" section below. - - stack_trace: - - This displays the stack back trace of the largest stack - that was encountered when the stack tracer is activated. - See the "Stack Trace" section below. - - stack_trace_filter: - - This is similar to "set_ftrace_filter" but it limits what - functions the stack tracer will check. - - trace_clock: - - Whenever an event is recorded into the ring buffer, a - "timestamp" is added. This stamp comes from a specified - clock. By default, ftrace uses the "local" clock. This - clock is very fast and strictly per cpu, but on some - systems it may not be monotonic with respect to other - CPUs. In other words, the local clocks may not be in sync - with local clocks on other CPUs. - - Usual clocks for tracing: - - # cat trace_clock - [local] global counter x86-tsc - - The clock with the square brackets around it is the one - in effect. - - local: Default clock, but may not be in sync across CPUs - - global: This clock is in sync with all CPUs but may - be a bit slower than the local clock. - - counter: This is not a clock at all, but literally an atomic - counter. It counts up one by one, but is in sync - with all CPUs. This is useful when you need to - know exactly the order events occurred with respect to - each other on different CPUs. - - uptime: This uses the jiffies counter and the time stamp - is relative to the time since boot up. - - perf: This makes ftrace use the same clock that perf uses. - Eventually perf will be able to read ftrace buffers - and this will help out in interleaving the data. - - x86-tsc: Architectures may define their own clocks. For - example, x86 uses its own TSC cycle clock here. - - ppc-tb: This uses the powerpc timebase register value. - This is in sync across CPUs and can also be used - to correlate events across hypervisor/guest if - tb_offset is known. - - mono: This uses the fast monotonic clock (CLOCK_MONOTONIC) - which is monotonic and is subject to NTP rate adjustments. - - mono_raw: - This is the raw monotonic clock (CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW) - which is montonic but is not subject to any rate adjustments - and ticks at the same rate as the hardware clocksource. - - boot: This is the boot clock (CLOCK_BOOTTIME) and is based on the - fast monotonic clock, but also accounts for time spent in - suspend. Since the clock access is designed for use in - tracing in the suspend path, some side effects are possible - if clock is accessed after the suspend time is accounted before - the fast mono clock is updated. In this case, the clock update - appears to happen slightly sooner than it normally would have. - Also on 32-bit systems, it's possible that the 64-bit boot offset - sees a partial update. These effects are rare and post - processing should be able to handle them. See comments in the - ktime_get_boot_fast_ns() function for more information. - - To set a clock, simply echo the clock name into this file. - - echo global > trace_clock - - trace_marker: - - This is a very useful file for synchronizing user space - with events happening in the kernel. Writing strings into - this file will be written into the ftrace buffer. - - It is useful in applications to open this file at the start - of the application and just reference the file descriptor - for the file. - - void trace_write(const char *fmt, ...) - { - va_list ap; - char buf[256]; - int n; - - if (trace_fd < 0) - return; - - va_start(ap, fmt); - n = vsnprintf(buf, 256, fmt, ap); - va_end(ap); - - write(trace_fd, buf, n); - } - - start: - - trace_fd = open("trace_marker", WR_ONLY); - - trace_marker_raw: - - This is similar to trace_marker above, but is meant for for binary data - to be written to it, where a tool can be used to parse the data - from trace_pipe_raw. - - uprobe_events: - - Add dynamic tracepoints in programs. - See uprobetracer.txt - - uprobe_profile: - - Uprobe statistics. See uprobetrace.txt - - instances: - - This is a way to make multiple trace buffers where different - events can be recorded in different buffers. - See "Instances" section below. - - events: - - This is the trace event directory. It holds event tracepoints - (also known as static tracepoints) that have been compiled - into the kernel. It shows what event tracepoints exist - and how they are grouped by system. There are "enable" - files at various levels that can enable the tracepoints - when a "1" is written to them. - - See events.txt for more information. - - set_event: - - By echoing in the event into this file, will enable that event. - - See events.txt for more information. - - available_events: - - A list of events that can be enabled in tracing. - - See events.txt for more information. - - hwlat_detector: - - Directory for the Hardware Latency Detector. - See "Hardware Latency Detector" section below. - - per_cpu: - - This is a directory that contains the trace per_cpu information. - - per_cpu/cpu0/buffer_size_kb: - - The ftrace buffer is defined per_cpu. That is, there's a separate - buffer for each CPU to allow writes to be done atomically, - and free from cache bouncing. These buffers may have different - size buffers. This file is similar to the buffer_size_kb - file, but it only displays or sets the buffer size for the - specific CPU. (here cpu0). - - per_cpu/cpu0/trace: - - This is similar to the "trace" file, but it will only display - the data specific for the CPU. If written to, it only clears - the specific CPU buffer. - - per_cpu/cpu0/trace_pipe - - This is similar to the "trace_pipe" file, and is a consuming - read, but it will only display (and consume) the data specific - for the CPU. - - per_cpu/cpu0/trace_pipe_raw - - For tools that can parse the ftrace ring buffer binary format, - the trace_pipe_raw file can be used to extract the data - from the ring buffer directly. With the use of the splice() - system call, the buffer data can be quickly transferred to - a file or to the network where a server is collecting the - data. - - Like trace_pipe, this is a consuming reader, where multiple - reads will always produce different data. - - per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot: - - This is similar to the main "snapshot" file, but will only - snapshot the current CPU (if supported). It only displays - the content of the snapshot for a given CPU, and if - written to, only clears this CPU buffer. - - per_cpu/cpu0/snapshot_raw: - - Similar to the trace_pipe_raw, but will read the binary format - from the snapshot buffer for the given CPU. - - per_cpu/cpu0/stats: - - This displays certain stats about the ring buffer: - - entries: The number of events that are still in the buffer. - - overrun: The number of lost events due to overwriting when - the buffer was full. - - commit overrun: Should always be zero. - This gets set if so many events happened within a nested - event (ring buffer is re-entrant), that it fills the - buffer and starts dropping events. - - bytes: Bytes actually read (not overwritten). - - oldest event ts: The oldest timestamp in the buffer - - now ts: The current timestamp - - dropped events: Events lost due to overwrite option being off. - - read events: The number of events read. - -The Tracers ------------ - -Here is the list of current tracers that may be configured. - - "function" - - Function call tracer to trace all kernel functions. - - "function_graph" - - Similar to the function tracer except that the - function tracer probes the functions on their entry - whereas the function graph tracer traces on both entry - and exit of the functions. It then provides the ability - to draw a graph of function calls similar to C code - source. - - "blk" - - The block tracer. The tracer used by the blktrace user - application. - - "hwlat" - - The Hardware Latency tracer is used to detect if the hardware - produces any latency. See "Hardware Latency Detector" section - below. - - "irqsoff" - - Traces the areas that disable interrupts and saves - the trace with the longest max latency. - See tracing_max_latency. When a new max is recorded, - it replaces the old trace. It is best to view this - trace with the latency-format option enabled, which - happens automatically when the tracer is selected. - - "preemptoff" - - Similar to irqsoff but traces and records the amount of - time for which preemption is disabled. - - "preemptirqsoff" - - Similar to irqsoff and preemptoff, but traces and - records the largest time for which irqs and/or preemption - is disabled. - - "wakeup" - - Traces and records the max latency that it takes for - the highest priority task to get scheduled after - it has been woken up. - Traces all tasks as an average developer would expect. - - "wakeup_rt" - - Traces and records the max latency that it takes for just - RT tasks (as the current "wakeup" does). This is useful - for those interested in wake up timings of RT tasks. - - "wakeup_dl" - - Traces and records the max latency that it takes for - a SCHED_DEADLINE task to be woken (as the "wakeup" and - "wakeup_rt" does). - - "mmiotrace" - - A special tracer that is used to trace binary module. - It will trace all the calls that a module makes to the - hardware. Everything it writes and reads from the I/O - as well. - - "branch" - - This tracer can be configured when tracing likely/unlikely - calls within the kernel. It will trace when a likely and - unlikely branch is hit and if it was correct in its prediction - of being correct. - - "nop" - - This is the "trace nothing" tracer. To remove all - tracers from tracing simply echo "nop" into - current_tracer. - - -Examples of using the tracer ----------------------------- - -Here are typical examples of using the tracers when controlling -them only with the tracefs interface (without using any -user-land utilities). - -Output format: --------------- - -Here is an example of the output format of the file "trace" - - -------- -# tracer: function -# -# entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 140080/250280 #P:4 -# -# _-----=> irqs-off -# / _----=> need-resched -# | / _---=> hardirq/softirq -# || / _--=> preempt-depth -# ||| / delay -# TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION -# | | | |||| | | - bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993652: sys_close <-system_call_fastpath - bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993653: __close_fd <-sys_close - bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993653: _raw_spin_lock <-__close_fd - sshd-1974 [003] .... 17284.993653: __srcu_read_unlock <-fsnotify - bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993654: add_preempt_count <-_raw_spin_lock - bash-1977 [000] ...1 17284.993655: _raw_spin_unlock <-__close_fd - bash-1977 [000] ...1 17284.993656: sub_preempt_count <-_raw_spin_unlock - bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993657: filp_close <-__close_fd - bash-1977 [000] .... 17284.993657: dnotify_flush <-filp_close - sshd-1974 [003] .... 17284.993658: sys_select <-system_call_fastpath - -------- - -A header is printed with the tracer name that is represented by -the trace. In this case the tracer is "function". Then it shows the -number of events in the buffer as well as the total number of entries -that were written. The difference is the number of entries that were -lost due to the buffer filling up (250280 - 140080 = 110200 events -lost). - -The header explains the content of the events. Task name "bash", the task -PID "1977", the CPU that it was running on "000", the latency format -(explained below), the timestamp in <secs>.<usecs> format, the -function name that was traced "sys_close" and the parent function that -called this function "system_call_fastpath". The timestamp is the time -at which the function was entered. - -Latency trace format --------------------- - -When the latency-format option is enabled or when one of the latency -tracers is set, the trace file gives somewhat more information to see -why a latency happened.

This differs from the output when latency-format - is disabled, which includes an absolute timestamp. - - delay: This is just to help catch your eye a bit better. And - needs to be fixed to be only relative to the same CPU. - The marks are determined by the difference between this - current trace and the next trace. - '$' - greater than 1 second - '@' - greater than 100 milisecond - '*' - greater than 10 milisecond - '#' - greater than 1000 microsecond - '!' - greater than 100 microsecond - '+' - greater than 10 microsecond - ' ' - less than or equal to 10 microsecond. - - The rest is the same as the 'trace' file. - - Note, the latency tracers will usually end with a back trace - to easily find where the latency occurred. - -trace_options -------------- - -The trace_options file (or the options directory) is used to control -what gets printed in the trace output, or manipulate the tracers. -To see what is available, simply cat the file: - - cat trace_options -print-parent -nosym-offset -nosym-addr -noverbose -noraw -nohex -nobin -noblock -trace_printk -annotate -nouserstacktrace -nosym-userobj -noprintk-msg-only -context-info -nolatency-format -record-cmd -norecord-tgid -overwrite -nodisable_on_free -irq-info -markers -noevent-fork -function-trace -nofunction-fork -nodisplay-graph -nostacktrace -nobranch - -To disable one of the options, echo in the option prepended with -"no". - - echo noprint-parent > trace_options - -To enable an option, leave off the "no". - - echo sym-offset > trace_options - -Here are the available options: - - print-parent - On function traces, display the calling (parent) - function as well as the function being traced. - - print-parent: - bash-4000 [01] 1477.606694: simple_strtoul <-kstrtoul - - noprint-parent: - bash-4000 [01] 1477.606694: simple_strtoul - - - sym-offset - Display not only the function name, but also the - offset in the function.

This option is best for - use with user applications that can translate the raw - numbers better than having it done in the kernel. - - hex - Similar to raw, but the numbers will be in a hexadecimal - format. - - bin - This will print out the formats in raw binary. - - block - When set, reading trace_pipe will not block when polled. - - trace_printk - Can disable trace_printk() from writing into the buffer. - - annotate - It is sometimes confusing when the CPU buffers are full - and one CPU buffer had a lot of events recently, thus - a shorter time frame, were another CPU may have only had - a few events, which lets it have older events. When - the trace is reported, it shows the oldest events first, - and it may look like only one CPU ran (the one with the - oldest events). When the annotate option is set, it will - display when a new CPU buffer started: - - <idle>-0 [001] dNs4 21169.031481: wake_up_idle_cpu <-add_timer_on - <idle>-0 [001] dNs4 21169.031482: _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore <-add_timer_on - <idle>-0 [001] .Ns4 21169.031484: sub_preempt_count <-_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore -##### CPU 2 buffer started #### - <idle>-0 [002] .N.1 21169.031484: rcu_idle_exit <-cpu_idle - <idle>-0 [001] .Ns3 21169.031484: _raw_spin_unlock <-clocksource_watchdog - <idle>-0 [001] .Ns3 21169.031485: sub_preempt_count <-_raw_spin_unlock - - userstacktrace - This option changes the trace. It records a - stacktrace of the current user space thread after - each trace event. - - sym-userobj - when user stacktrace are enabled, look up which - object the address belongs to, and print a - relative address. This is especially useful when - ASLR is on, otherwise you don't get a chance to - resolve the address to object/file/line after - the app is no longer running - - The lookup is performed when you read - trace,trace_pipe. Example: - - a.out-1623 [000] 40874.465068: /root/a.out[+0x480] <-/root/a.out[+0 -x494] <- /root/a.out[+0x4a8] <- /lib/libc-2.7.so[+0x1e1a6] - - - printk-msg-only - When set, trace_printk()s will only show the format - and not their parameters (if trace_bprintk() or - trace_bputs() was used to save the trace_printk()). - - context-info - Show only the event data. Hides the comm, PID, - timestamp, CPU, and other useful data. - - latency-format - This option changes the trace output. When it is enabled, - the trace displays additional information about the - latency, as described in "Latency trace format". - - record-cmd - When any event or tracer is enabled, a hook is enabled - in the sched_switch trace point to fill comm cache - with mapped pids and comms. But this may cause some - overhead, and if you only care about pids, and not the - name of the task, disabling this option can lower the - impact of tracing. See "saved_cmdlines". - - record-tgid - When any event or tracer is enabled, a hook is enabled - in the sched_switch trace point to fill the cache of - mapped Thread Group IDs (TGID) mapping to pids. See - "saved_tgids". - - overwrite - This controls what happens when the trace buffer is - full. If "1" (default), the oldest events are - discarded and overwritten. If "0", then the newest - events are discarded. - (see per_cpu/cpu0/stats for overrun and dropped) - - disable_on_free - When the free_buffer is closed, tracing will - stop (tracing_on set to 0). - - irq-info - Shows the interrupt, preempt count, need resched data. - When disabled, the trace looks like: - -# tracer: function -# -# entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 144405/9452052 #P:4 -# -# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION -# | | | | | - <idle>-0 [002] 23636.756054: ttwu_do_activate.constprop.89 <-try_to_wake_up - <idle>-0 [002] 23636.756054: activate_task <-ttwu_do_activate.constprop.89 - <idle>-0 [002] 23636.756055: enqueue_task <-activate_task - - - markers - When set, the trace_marker is writable (only by root). - When disabled, the trace_marker will error with EINVAL - on write. - - event-fork - When set, tasks with PIDs listed in set_event_pid will have - the PIDs of their children added to set_event_pid when those - tasks fork. Also, when tasks with PIDs in set_event_pid exit, - their PIDs will be removed from the file. - - function-trace - The latency tracers will enable function tracing - if this option is enabled (default it is). When - it is disabled, the latency tracers do not trace - functions. This keeps the overhead of the tracer down - when performing latency tests. - - function-fork - When set, tasks with PIDs listed in set_ftrace_pid will - have the PIDs of their children added to set_ftrace_pid - when those tasks fork. Also, when tasks with PIDs in - set_ftrace_pid exit, their PIDs will be removed from the - file. - - display-graph - When set, the latency tracers (irqsoff, wakeup, etc) will - use function graph tracing instead of function tracing. - - stacktrace - When set, a stack trace is recorded after any trace event - is recorded. - - branch - Enable branch tracing with the tracer. This enables branch - tracer along with the currently set tracer. Enabling this - with the "nop" tracer is the same as just enabling the - "branch" tracer. - - Note: Some tracers have their own options. They only appear in this - file when the tracer is active. They always appear in the - options directory. - - -Here are the per tracer options: - -Options for function tracer: - - func_stack_trace - When set, a stack trace is recorded after every - function that is recorded. NOTE! Limit the functions - that are recorded before enabling this, with - "set_ftrace_filter" otherwise the system performance - will be critically degraded. Remember to disable - this option before clearing the function filter. - -Options for function_graph tracer: - - Since the function_graph tracer has a slightly different output - it has its own options to control what is displayed. - - funcgraph-overrun - When set, the "overrun" of the graph stack is - displayed after each function traced. The - overrun, is when the stack depth of the calls - is greater than what is reserved for each task. - Each task has a fixed array of functions to - trace in the call graph. If the depth of the - calls exceeds that, the function is not traced. - The overrun is the number of functions missed - due to exceeding this array. - - funcgraph-cpu - When set, the CPU number of the CPU where the trace - occurred is displayed. - - funcgraph-overhead - When set, if the function takes longer than - A certain amount, then a delay marker is - displayed. See "delay" above, under the - header description. - - funcgraph-proc - Unlike other tracers, the process' command line - is not displayed by default, but instead only - when a task is traced in and out during a context - switch. Enabling this options has the command - of each process displayed at every line. - - funcgraph-duration - At the end of each function (the return) - the duration of the amount of time in the - function is displayed in microseconds. - - funcgraph-abstime - When set, the timestamp is displayed at each - line. - - funcgraph-irqs - When disabled, functions that happen inside an - interrupt will not be traced. - - funcgraph-tail - When set, the return event will include the function - that it represents. By default this is off, and - only a closing curly bracket "}" is displayed for - the return of a function. - - sleep-time - When running function graph tracer, to include - the time a task schedules out in its function. - When enabled, it will account time the task has been - scheduled out as part of the function call. - - graph-time - When running function profiler with function graph tracer, - to include the time to call nested functions. When this is - not set, the time reported for the function will only - include the time the function itself executed for, not the - time for functions that it called. - -Options for blk tracer: - - blk_classic - Shows a more minimalistic output. - - -irqsoff -------- - -When interrupts are disabled, the CPU can not react to any other -external event (besides NMIs and SMIs). This prevents the timer -interrupt from triggering or the mouse interrupt from letting -the kernel know of a new mouse event. The result is a latency -with the reaction time. - -The irqsoff tracer tracks the time for which interrupts are -disabled. When a new maximum latency is hit, the tracer saves -the trace leading up to that latency point so that every time a -new maximum is reached, the old saved trace is discarded and the -new trace is saved. - -To reset the maximum, echo 0 into tracing_max_latency. Here is -an example: - - # echo 0 > options/function-trace - # echo irqsoff > current_tracer - # echo 1 > tracing_on - # echo 0 > tracing_max_latency - # ls -ltr - [...] - # echo 0 > tracing_on - # cat trace -# tracer: irqsoff -# -# irqsoff latency trace v1.1.5 on 3.8.0-test+ -# -------------------------------------------------------------------- -# latency: 16 us, #4/4, CPU#0 | (M:preempt VP:0, KP:0, SP:0 HP:0 #P:4) -# ----------------- -# | task: swapper/0-0 (uid:0 nice:0 policy:0 rt_prio:0) -# ----------------- -# => started at: run_timer_softirq -# => ended at: run_timer_softirq -# -# -# _------=> CPU# -# / _-----=> irqs-off -# | / _----=> need-resched -# || / _---=> hardirq/softirq -# ||| / _--=> preempt-depth -# |||| / delay -# cmd pid ||||| time | caller -# \ / ||||| \ | / - <idle>-0 0d.s2 0us+: _raw_spin_lock_irq <-run_timer_softirq - <idle>-0 0dNs3 17us : _raw_spin_unlock_irq <-run_timer_softirq - <idle>-0 0dNs3 17us+: trace_hardirqs_on <-run_timer_softirq - <idle>-0 0dNs3 25us : <stack trace> - => _raw_spin_unlock_irq - => run_timer_softirq - => __do_softirq - => call_softirq - => do_softirq - => irq_exit - => smp_apic_timer_interrupt - => apic_timer_interrupt - => rcu_idle_exit - => cpu_idle - => rest_init - => start_kernel - => x86_64_start_reservations - => x86_64_start_kernel - -Here we see that that we had a latency of 16 microseconds (which is -very good).

The way -this works is the mcount function call (placed at the start of -every kernel function, produced by the -pg switch in gcc), -starts of pointing to a simple return. (Enabling FTRACE will -include the -pg switch in the compiling of the kernel.) - -At compile time every C file object is run through the -recordmcount program (located in the scripts directory). This -program will parse the ELF headers in the C object to find all -the locations in the .text section that call mcount. Starting -with gcc verson 4.6, the -mfentry has been added for x86, which -calls "__fentry__" instead of "mcount". Which is called before -the creation of the stack frame. - -Note, not all sections are traced. They may be prevented by either -a notrace, or blocked another way and all inline functions are not -traced. Check the "available_filter_functions" file to see what functions -can be traced. - -A section called "__mcount_loc" is created that holds -references to all the mcount/fentry call sites in the .text section. -The recordmcount program re-links this section back into the -original object. The final linking stage of the kernel will add all these -references into a single table. - -On boot up, before SMP is initialized, the dynamic ftrace code -scans this table and updates all the locations into nops. It -also records the locations, which are added to the -available_filter_functions list. Modules are processed as they -are loaded and before they are executed. When a module is -unloaded, it also removes its functions from the ftrace function -list. This is automatic in the module unload code, and the -module author does not need to worry about it. - -When tracing is enabled, the process of modifying the function -tracepoints is dependent on architecture. The old method is to use -kstop_machine to prevent races with the CPUs executing code being -modified (which can cause the CPU to do undesirable things, especially -if the modified code crosses cache (or page) boundaries), and the nops are -patched back to calls. But this time, they do not call mcount -(which is just a function stub). They now call into the ftrace -infrastructure. - -The new method of modifying the function tracepoints is to place -a breakpoint at the location to be modified, sync all CPUs, modify -the rest of the instruction not covered by the breakpoint. Sync -all CPUs again, and then remove the breakpoint with the finished -version to the ftrace call site. - -Some archs do not even need to monkey around with the synchronization, -and can just slap the new code on top of the old without any -problems with other CPUs executing it at the same time. - -One special side-effect to the recording of the functions being -traced is that we can now selectively choose which functions we -wish to trace and which ones we want the mcount calls to remain -as nops. - -Two files are used, one for enabling and one for disabling the -tracing of specified functions.

This includes not only the function tracers for ftrace, but -also for any other uses (perf, kprobes, stack tracing, profiling, etc). - -Please disable this with care. - -This can be disable (and enabled) with: - - sysctl kernel.ftrace_enabled=0 - sysctl kernel.ftrace_enabled=1 - - or - - echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled - echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled - - -Filter commands ---------------- - -A few commands are supported by the set_ftrace_filter interface. -Trace commands have the following format: - -<function>:<command>:<parameter> - -The following commands are supported: - -- mod - This command enables function filtering per module. The - parameter defines the module. For example, if only the write* - functions in the ext3 module are desired, run: - - echo 'write*:mod:ext3' > set_ftrace_filter - - This command interacts with the filter in the same way as - filtering based on function names. Thus, adding more functions - in a different module is accomplished by appending (>>) to the - filter file. Remove specific module functions by prepending - '!': - - echo '!writeback*:mod:ext3' >> set_ftrace_filter - - Mod command supports module globbing. Disable tracing for all - functions except a specific module: - - echo '!*:mod:!ext3' >> set_ftrace_filter - - Disable tracing for all modules, but still trace kernel: - - echo '!*:mod:*' >> set_ftrace_filter - - Enable filter only for kernel: - - echo '*write*:mod:!*' >> set_ftrace_filter - - Enable filter for module globbing: - - echo '*write*:mod:*snd*' >> set_ftrace_filter - -- traceon/traceoff - These commands turn tracing on and off when the specified - functions are hit. The parameter determines how many times the - tracing system is turned on and off. If unspecified, there is - no limit. For example, to disable tracing when a schedule bug - is hit the first 5 times, run: - - echo '__schedule_bug:traceoff:5' > set_ftrace_filter - - To always disable tracing when __schedule_bug is hit: - - echo '__schedule_bug:traceoff' > set_ftrace_filter - - These commands are cumulative whether or not they are appended - to set_ftrace_filter. To remove a command, prepend it by '!' - and drop the parameter: - - echo '!__schedule_bug:traceoff:0' > set_ftrace_filter - - The above removes the traceoff command for __schedule_bug - that have a counter. To remove commands without counters: - - echo '!__schedule_bug:traceoff' > set_ftrace_filter - -- snapshot - Will cause a snapshot to be triggered when the function is hit. - - echo 'native_flush_tlb_others:snapshot' > set_ftrace_filter - - To only snapshot once: - - echo 'native_flush_tlb_others:snapshot:1' > set_ftrace_filter - - To remove the above commands: - - echo '!native_flush_tlb_others:snapshot' > set_ftrace_filter - echo '!native_flush_tlb_others:snapshot:0' > set_ftrace_filter - -- enable_event/disable_event - These commands can enable or disable a trace event. Note, because - function tracing callbacks are very sensitive, when these commands - are registered, the trace point is activated, but disabled in - a "soft" mode. That is, the tracepoint will be called, but - just will not be traced. The event tracepoint stays in this mode - as long as there's a command that triggers it. - - echo 'try_to_wake_up:enable_event:sched:sched_switch:2' > \ - set_ftrace_filter - - The format is: - - <function>:enable_event:<system>:<event>[:count] - <function>:disable_event:<system>:<event>[:count] - - To remove the events commands: - - - echo '!try_to_wake_up:enable_event:sched:sched_switch:0' > \ - set_ftrace_filter - echo '!schedule:disable_event:sched:sched_switch' > \ - set_ftrace_filter - -- dump - When the function is hit, it will dump the contents of the ftrace - ring buffer to the console. This is useful if you need to debug - something, and want to dump the trace when a certain function - is hit. Perhaps its a function that is called before a tripple - fault happens and does not allow you to get a regular dump. - -- cpudump - When the function is hit, it will dump the contents of the ftrace - ring buffer for the current CPU to the console. Unlike the "dump" - command, it only prints out the contents of the ring buffer for the - CPU that executed the function that triggered the dump. - -trace_pipe ----------- - -The trace_pipe outputs the same content as the trace file, but -the effect on the tracing is different.
