ftrace: Expose call graph depth as unsigned int

2025-05-08T13:36:08+00:00

Depth is stored as int because the code uses negative values to break
out of iterations. But what is recorded is always zero or positive. So
expose it as unsigned int instead of int.

ftrace: Fix type of ftrace_graph_ent_entry.depth

2025-04-17T19:19:15+00:00

ftrace_graph_ent.depth is int, but ftrace_graph_ent_entry.depth is
unsigned long. This confuses trace-cmd on 64-bit big-endian systems and
makes it print a huge amount of spaces. Fix this by using unsigned int,
which has a matching size, instead.

fgraph: Remove calltime and rettime from generic operations

2025-01-22T02:55:49+00:00

The function graph infrastructure is now generic so that kretprobes,
fprobes and BPF can use it. But there is still some leftover logic that
only the function graph tracer itself uses. This is the calculation of the
calltime and return time of the functions. The calculation of the calltime
has been moved into the function graph tracer and those users that need it
so that it doesn't cause overhead to the other users. But the return
function timestamp was still called.

Instead of just moving the taking of the timestamp into the function graph
trace remove the calltime and rettime completely from the ftrace_graph_ret
structure. Instead, move it into the function graph return entry event
structure and this also moves all the calltime and rettime logic out of
the generic fgraph.c code and into the tracing code that uses it.

This has been reported to decrease the overhead by ~27%.

function_graph: Support recording and printing the function return address

2024-10-05T14:14:04+00:00

When using function_graph tracer to analyze the flow of kernel function
execution, it is often necessary to quickly locate the exact line of code
where the call occurs. While this may be easy at times, it can be more
time-consuming when some functions are inlined or the flow is too long.

This feature aims to simplify the process by recording the return address
of traced funcions and printing it when outputing trace logs.

To enhance human readability, the prefix 'ret=' is used for the kernel return
value, while '<-' serves as the prefix for the return address in trace logs to
make it look more like the function tracer.

A new trace option named 'funcgraph-retaddr' has been introduced, and the
existing option 'sym-addr' can be used to control the format of the return
address.

See below logs with both funcgraph-retval and funcgraph-retaddr enabled.

tracing: Add back FORTIFY_SOURCE logic to kernel_stack event structure

2023-07-30T22:11:44+00:00

For backward compatibility, older tooling expects to see the kernel_stack
event with a "caller" field that is a fixed size array of 8 addresses. The
code now supports more than 8 with an added "size" field that states the
real number of entries. But the "caller" field still just looks like a
fixed size to user space.

Since the tracing macros that create the user space format files also
creates the structures that those files represent, the kernel_stack event
structure had its "caller" field a fixed size of 8, but in reality, when
it is allocated on the ring buffer, it can hold more if the stack trace is
bigger that 8 functions. The copying of these entries was simply done with
a memcpy():

  size = nr_entries * sizeof(unsigned long);
  memcpy(entry->caller, fstack->calls, size);

The FORTIFY_SOURCE logic noticed at runtime that when the nr_entries was
larger than 8, that the memcpy() was writing more than what the structure
stated it can hold and it complained about it. This is because the
FORTIFY_SOURCE code is unaware that the amount allocated is actually
enough to hold the size. It does not expect that a fixed size field will
hold more than the fixed size.

This was originally solved by hiding the caller assignment with some
pointer arithmetic.

  ptr = ring_buffer_data();
  entry = ptr;

  ptr += offsetof(typeof(*entry), caller);
  memcpy(ptr, fstack->calls, size);

But it is considered bad form to hide from kernel hardening. Instead, make
it work nicely with FORTIFY_SOURCE by adding a new __stack_array() macro
that is specific for this one special use case. The macro will take 4
arguments: type, item, len, field (whereas the __array() macro takes just
the first three). This macro will act just like the __array() macro when
creating the code to deal with the format file that is exposed to user
space. But for the kernel, it will turn the caller field into:

  type item[] __counted_by(field);

or for this instance:

  unsigned long caller[] __counted_by(size);

Now the kernel code can expose the assignment of the caller to the
FORTIFY_SOURCE and everyone is happy!

function_graph: Support recording and printing the return value of function

2023-06-20T22:38:37+00:00

Analyzing system call failures with the function_graph tracer can be a
time-consuming process, particularly when locating the kernel function
that first returns an error in the trace logs. This change aims to
simplify the process by recording the function return value to the
'retval' member of 'ftrace_graph_ret' and printing it when outputting
the trace log.

We have introduced new trace options: funcgraph-retval and
funcgraph-retval-hex. The former controls whether to display the return
value, while the latter controls the display format.

Please note that even if a function's return type is void, a return
value will still be printed. You can simply ignore it.

This patch only establishes the fundamental infrastructure. Subsequent
patches will make this feature available on some commonly used processor
architectures.

Here is an example:

I attempted to attach the demo process to a cpu cgroup, but it failed:

echo `pidof demo` > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/tasks
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

The strace logs indicate that the write system call returned -EINVAL(-22):
...
write(1, "273\n", 4)                    = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
...

To capture trace logs during a write system call, use the following
commands:

cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
echo 0 > tracing_on
echo > trace
echo *sys_write > set_graph_function
echo *spin* > set_graph_notrace
echo *rcu* >> set_graph_notrace
echo *alloc* >> set_graph_notrace
echo preempt* >> set_graph_notrace
echo kfree* >> set_graph_notrace
echo $$ > set_ftrace_pid
echo function_graph > current_tracer
echo 1 > options/funcgraph-retval
echo 0 > options/funcgraph-retval-hex
echo 1 > tracing_on
echo `pidof demo` > /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/test/tasks
echo 0 > tracing_on
cat trace > ~/trace.log

To locate the root cause, search for error code -22 directly in the file
trace.log and identify the first function that returned -22. Once you
have identified this function, examine its code to determine the root
cause.

For example, in the trace log below, cpu_cgroup_can_attach
returned -22 first, so we can focus our analysis on this function to
identify the root cause.

...

 1)          | cgroup_migrate() {
 1) 0.651 us |   cgroup_migrate_add_task(); /* = 0xffff93fcfd346c00 */
 1)          |   cgroup_migrate_execute() {
 1)          |     cpu_cgroup_can_attach() {
 1)          |       cgroup_taskset_first() {
 1) 0.732 us |         cgroup_taskset_next(); /* = 0xffff93fc8fb20000 */
 1) 1.232 us |       } /* cgroup_taskset_first = 0xffff93fc8fb20000 */

trace: Add timerlat tracer

2021-06-25T23:57:24+00:00

The timerlat tracer aims to help the preemptive kernel developers to
found souces of wakeup latencies of real-time threads. Like cyclictest,
the tracer sets a periodic timer that wakes up a thread. The thread then
computes a *wakeup latency* value as the difference between the *current
time* and the *absolute time* that the timer was set to expire. The main
goal of timerlat is tracing in such a way to help kernel developers.

Usage

Write the ASCII text "timerlat" into the current_tracer file of the
tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing).

For example:

        [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo timerlat > current_tracer

It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file:

  [root@f32 tracing]# cat trace
  # tracer: timerlat
  #

           <...>-867     [000] ....    54.029339: #1     context thread timer_latency     11700 ns
          -0       [001] dNh1    54.029346: #1     context    irq timer_latency      2833 ns
           <...>-868     [001] ....    54.029353: #1     context thread timer_latency      9820 ns
          -0       [000] d.h1    54.030328: #2     context    irq timer_latency       769 ns
           <...>-867     [000] ....    54.030330: #2     context thread timer_latency      3070 ns
          -0       [001] d.h1    54.030344: #2     context    irq timer_latency       935 ns
           <...>-868     [001] ....    54.030347: #2     context thread timer_latency      4351 ns

The tracer creates a per-cpu kernel thread with real-time priority that
prints two lines at every activation. The first is the *timer latency*
observed at the *hardirq* context before the activation of the thread.
The second is the *timer latency* observed by the thread, which is the
same level that cyclictest reports. The ACTIVATION ID field
serves to relate the *irq* execution to its respective *thread* execution.

The irq/thread splitting is important to clarify at which context
the unexpected high value is coming from. The *irq* context can be
delayed by hardware related actions, such as SMIs, NMIs, IRQs
or by a thread masking interrupts. Once the timer happens, the delay
can also be influenced by blocking caused by threads. For example, by
postponing the scheduler execution via preempt_disable(),  by the
scheduler execution, or by masking interrupts. Threads can
also be delayed by the interference from other threads and IRQs.

The timerlat can also take advantage of the osnoise: traceevents.
For example:

        [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo timerlat > current_tracer
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > set_event
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo 25 > osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us

trace: Add osnoise tracer

2021-06-25T23:57:01+00:00

In the context of high-performance computing (HPC), the Operating System
Noise (*osnoise*) refers to the interference experienced by an application
due to activities inside the operating system. In the context of Linux,
NMIs, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and any other system thread can cause noise to the
system. Moreover, hardware-related jobs can also cause noise, for example,
via SMIs.

The osnoise tracer leverages the hwlat_detector by running a similar
loop with preemption, SoftIRQs and IRQs enabled, thus allowing all
the sources of *osnoise* during its execution. Using the same approach
of hwlat, osnoise takes note of the entry and exit point of any
source of interferences, increasing a per-cpu interference counter. The
osnoise tracer also saves an interference counter for each source of
interference. The interference counter for NMI, IRQs, SoftIRQs, and
threads is increased anytime the tool observes these interferences' entry
events. When a noise happens without any interference from the operating
system level, the hardware noise counter increases, pointing to a
hardware-related noise. In this way, osnoise can account for any
source of interference. At the end of the period, the osnoise tracer
prints the sum of all noise, the max single noise, the percentage of CPU
available for the thread, and the counters for the noise sources.

Usage

Write the ASCII text "osnoise" into the current_tracer file of the
tracing system (generally mounted at /sys/kernel/tracing).

For example::

        [root@f32 ~]# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
        [root@f32 tracing]# echo osnoise > current_tracer

It is possible to follow the trace by reading the trace trace file::

        [root@f32 tracing]# cat trace
        # tracer: osnoise

In addition to the regular trace fields (from TASK-PID to TIMESTAMP), the
tracer prints a message at the end of each period for each CPU that is
running an osnoise/CPU thread. The osnoise specific fields report:

 - The RUNTIME IN USE reports the amount of time in microseconds that
   the osnoise thread kept looping reading the time.
 - The NOISE IN US reports the sum of noise in microseconds observed
   by the osnoise tracer during the associated runtime.
 - The % OF CPU AVAILABLE reports the percentage of CPU available for
   the osnoise thread during the runtime window.
 - The MAX SINGLE NOISE IN US reports the maximum single noise observed
   during the runtime window.
 - The Interference counters display how many each of the respective
   interference happened during the runtime window.

Note that the example above shows a high number of HW noise samples.
The reason being is that this sample was taken on a virtual machine,
and the host interference is detected as a hardware interference.

Tracer options

The tracer has a set of options inside the osnoise directory, they are:

 - osnoise/cpus: CPUs at which a osnoise thread will execute.
 - osnoise/period_us: the period of the osnoise thread.
 - osnoise/runtime_us: how long an osnoise thread will look for noise.
 - osnoise/stop_tracing_us: stop the system tracing if a single noise
   higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this
   option.
 - osnoise/stop_tracing_total_us: stop the system tracing if total noise
   higher than the configured value happens. Writing 0 disables this
   option.
 - tracing_threshold: the minimum delta between two time() reads to be
   considered as noise, in us. When set to 0, the default value will
   be used, which is currently 5 us.

Additional Tracing

In addition to the tracer, a set of tracepoints were added to
facilitate the identification of the osnoise source.

 - osnoise:sample_threshold: printed anytime a noise is higher than
   the configurable tolerance_ns.
 - osnoise:nmi_noise: noise from NMI, including the duration.
 - osnoise:irq_noise: noise from an IRQ, including the duration.
 - osnoise:softirq_noise: noise from a SoftIRQ, including the
   duration.
 - osnoise:thread_noise: noise from a thread, including the duration.

Note that all the values are *net values*. For example, if while osnoise
is running, another thread preempts the osnoise thread, it will start a
thread_noise duration at the start. Then, an IRQ takes place, preempting
the thread_noise, starting a irq_noise. When the IRQ ends its execution,
it will compute its duration, and this duration will be subtracted from
the thread_noise, in such a way as to avoid the double accounting of the
IRQ execution. This logic is valid for all sources of noise.

Here is one example of the usage of these tracepoints::

       osnoise/8-961     [008] d.h.  5789.857532: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.857529929 duration 1845 ns
       osnoise/8-961     [008] dNh.  5789.858408: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 5789.858404871 duration 2848 ns
     migration/8-54      [008] d...  5789.858413: thread_noise: migration/8:54 start 5789.858409300 duration 3068 ns
       osnoise/8-961     [008] ....  5789.858413: sample_threshold: start 5789.858404555 duration 8723 ns interferences 2

In this example, a noise sample of 8 microseconds was reported in the last
line, pointing to two interferences. Looking backward in the trace, the
two previous entries were about the migration thread running after a
timer IRQ execution. The first event is not part of the noise because
it took place one millisecond before.

It is worth noticing that the sum of the duration reported in the
tracepoints is smaller than eight us reported in the sample_threshold.
The reason roots in the overhead of the entry and exit code that happens
before and after any interference execution. This justifies the dual
approach: measuring thread and tracing.
