kernel: trace: blktrace: remove redundent memcpy() in compat_blk_trace_setup()

2013-11-08T16:04:30+00:00

do_blk_trace_setup() will fully initialize 'buts.name', so can remove
the related memcpy(). And also use BLKTRACE_BDEV_SIZE and ARRAY_SIZE
instead of hard code number '32'.

blktrace: Send BLK_TN_PROCESS events to all running traces

2013-11-08T15:59:00+00:00

Currently each task sends BLK_TN_PROCESS event to the first traced
device it interacts with after a new trace is started. When there are
several traced devices and the task accesses more devices, this logic
can result in BLK_TN_PROCESS being sent several times to some devices
while it is never sent to other devices. Thus blkparse doesn't display
command name when parsing some blktrace files.

Fix the problem by sending BLK_TN_PROCESS event to all traced devices
when a task interacts with any of them.

Revert "block: add missing block_bio_complete() tracepoint"

2013-04-18T16:00:26+00:00

This reverts commit 3a366e614d0837d9fc23f78cdb1a1186ebc3387f.

Wanlong Gao reports that it causes a kernel panic on his machine several
minutes after boot. Reverting it removes the panic.

Jens says:
 "It's not quite clear why that is yet, so I think we should just revert
  the commit for 3.9 final (which I'm assuming is pretty close).

  The wifi is crap at the LSF hotel, so sending this email instead of
  queueing up a revert and pull request."

block: add missing block_bio_complete() tracepoint

2013-01-14T14:00:36+00:00

bio completion didn't kick block_bio_complete TP.  Only dm was
explicitly triggering the TP on IO completion.  This makes
block_bio_complete TP useless for tracers which want to know about
bios, and all other bio based drivers skip generating blktrace
completion events.

This patch makes all bio completions via bio_endio() generate
block_bio_complete TP.

* Explicit trace_block_bio_complete() invocation removed from dm and
  the trace point is unexported.

* @rq dropped from trace_block_bio_complete().  bios may fly around
  w/o queue associated.  Verifying and accessing the assocaited queue
  belongs to TP probes.

* blktrace now gets both request and bio completions.  Make it ignore
  bio completions if request completion path is happening.

This makes all bio based drivers generate blktrace completion events
properly and makes the block_bio_complete TP actually useful.

v2: With this change, block_bio_complete TP could be invoked on sg
    commands which have bio's with %NULL bi_bdev.  Update TP
    assignment code to check whether bio->bi_bdev is %NULL before
    dereferencing.

treewide: use printf not attribute__((format(printf,...)))

2011-11-01T00:30:54+00:00

Standardize the style for compiler based printf format verification.
Standardized the location of __printf too.

Done via script and a little typing.

$ grep -rPl --include=*.[ch] -w "__attribute__" * | \
  grep -vP "^(tools|scripts|include/linux/compiler-gcc.h)" | \
  xargs perl -n -i -e 'local $/; while (<>) { s/\b__attribute__\s*\(\s*\(\s*format\s*\(\s*printf\s*,\s*(.+)\s*,\s*(.+)\s*\)\s*\)\s*\)/__printf($1, $2)/g ; print; }'

blktrace: add FLUSH/FUA support

2011-08-11T08:36:05+00:00

Add FLUSH/FUA support to blktrace. As FLUSH precedes WRITE and/or
FUA follows WRITE, use the same 'F' flag for both cases and
distinguish them by their (relative) position. The end results
look like (other flags might be shown also):

 - WRITE:            W
 - WRITE_FLUSH:      FW
 - WRITE_FUA:        WF
 - WRITE_FLUSH_FUA:  FWF

Note that we reuse TC_BARRIER due to lack of bit space of act_mask
so that the older versions of blktrace tools will report flush
requests as barriers from now on.

blktrace: Remove blk_fill_rwbs_rq.

2011-03-03T15:53:20+00:00

If we enable trace events to trace block actions, We use
blk_fill_rwbs_rq to analyze the corresponding actions
in request's cmd_flags, but we only choose the minor 2 bits
from it, so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing.
For example, with a sync write we get:
write_test-2409  [001]   160.013869: block_rq_insert: 3,64 W 0 () 258135 + =
8 [write_test]

Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request,
it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to blk_fill_rwbs and
blk_fill_rwbs_rq isn't needed any more.

With this patch, after a sync write we get:
write_test-2417  [000]   226.603878: block_rq_insert: 3,64 WS 0 () 258135 +=
 8 [write_test]
