Subject: Re: [PATCH 5/7] uprobes/perf: Teach trace_uprobe/perf code to
 pre-filter

* Oleg Nesterov <oleg@...hat.com> [2013-02-04 20:02:58]:

> Finally implement uprobe_perf_filter() which checks ->nr_systemwide or
> ->perf_events to figure out whether we need to insert the breakpoint.
> 
> uprobe_perf_open/close are changed to do uprobe_apply(true/false) when
> the new perf event comes or goes away.
> 
> Note that currently this is very suboptimal:
> 
> 	- uprobe_register() called by TRACE_REG_PERF_REGISTER becomes a
> 	  heavy nop, consumer->filter() always returns F at this stage.
> 
> 	  As it was already discussed we need uprobe_register_only() to
> 	  avoid the costly register_for_each_vma() when possible.
> 
> 	- uprobe_apply() is oftenly overkill. Unless "nr_systemwide != 0"
> 	  changes we need uprobe_apply_mm(), unapply_uprobe() is almost
> 	  what we need.
> 
> 	- uprobe_apply() can be simply avoided sometimes, see the next
> 	  changes.
> 
> Testing:
> 
> 	# perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall
> 
> 	# perl -e 'syscall -1 while 1' &
> 	[1] 530
> 
> 	# perf record -e probe_libc:syscall perl -e 'syscall -1 for 1..10; sleep 1'
> 
> 	# perf report --show-total-period

> 		/lib/libc.so.6 syscall				79291

> A huge ->nrhit == 79291 reflects the fact that the background process

> the output.
> 
> After the patch:
> 
> 	# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile
> 		/lib/libc.so.6 syscall				10
> 
> This shows that only the target process was punished by int3.
