From: "zhangwei(Jovi)" All syscall tracing irqs-off tags are wrong, the syscall enter entry doesn't disable irqs. [root@jovi tracing]#echo "syscalls:sys_enter_open" > set_event [root@jovi tracing]# cat trace # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 13/13 #P:2 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | irqbalance-513 [000] d... 56115.496766: sys_open(filename: 804e1a6, flags: 0, mode: 1b6) irqbalance-513 [000] d... 56115.497008: sys_open(filename: 804e1bb, flags: 0, mode: 1b6) sendmail-771 [000] d... 56115.827982: sys_open(filename: b770e6d1, flags: 0, mode: 1b6) The reason is syscall tracing doesn't record irq_flags into buffer. The proper display is: [root@jovi tracing]#echo "syscalls:sys_enter_open" > set_event [root@jovi tracing]# cat trace # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 14/14 #P:2 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | irqbalance-514 [001] .... 46.213921: sys_open(filename: 804e1a6, flags: 0, mode: 1b6) irqbalance-514 [001] .... 46.214160: sys_open(filename: 804e1bb, flags: 0, mode: 1b6) <...>-920 [001] .... 47.307260: sys_open(filename: 4e82a0c5, flags: 80000, mode: 0) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1365564393-10972-3-git-send-email-jovi.zhangwei@huawei.com Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 2.6.35 Signed-off-by: zhangwei(Jovi) Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt --- kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c b/kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c index 8f2ac73..322e164 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c +++ b/kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c @@ -306,6 +306,8 @@ static void ftrace_syscall_enter(void *data, struct pt_regs *regs, long id) struct syscall_metadata *sys_data; struct ring_buffer_event *event; struct ring_buffer *buffer; + unsigned long irq_flags; + int pc; int syscall_nr; int size; @@ -321,9 +323,12 @@ static void ftrace_syscall_enter(void *data, struct pt_regs *regs, long id) size = sizeof(*entry) + sizeof(unsigned long) * sys_data->nb_args; + local_save_flags(irq_flags); + pc = preempt_count(); + buffer = tr->trace_buffer.buffer; event = trace_buffer_lock_reserve(buffer, - sys_data->enter_event->event.type, size, 0, 0); + sys_data->enter_event->event.type, size, irq_flags, pc); if (!event) return; @@ -333,7 +338,8 @@ static void ftrace_syscall_enter(void *data, struct pt_regs *regs, long id) if (!filter_current_check_discard(buffer, sys_data->enter_event, entry, event)) - trace_current_buffer_unlock_commit(buffer, event, 0, 0); + trace_current_buffer_unlock_commit(buffer, event, + irq_flags, pc); } static void ftrace_syscall_exit(void *data, struct pt_regs *regs, long ret) @@ -343,6 +349,8 @@ static void ftrace_syscall_exit(void *data, struct pt_regs *regs, long ret) struct syscall_metadata *sys_data; struct ring_buffer_event *event; struct ring_buffer *buffer; + unsigned long irq_flags; + int pc; int syscall_nr; syscall_nr = trace_get_syscall_nr(current, regs); @@ -355,9 +363,13 @@ static void ftrace_syscall_exit(void *data, struct pt_regs *regs, long ret) if (!sys_data) return; + local_save_flags(irq_flags); + pc = preempt_count(); + buffer = tr->trace_buffer.buffer; event = trace_buffer_lock_reserve(buffer, - sys_data->exit_event->event.type, sizeof(*entry), 0, 0); + sys_data->exit_event->event.type, sizeof(*entry), + irq_flags, pc); if (!event) return; @@ -367,7 +379,8 @@ static void ftrace_syscall_exit(void *data, struct pt_regs *regs, long ret) if (!filter_current_check_discard(buffer, sys_data->exit_event, entry, event)) - trace_current_buffer_unlock_commit(buffer, event, 0, 0); + trace_current_buffer_unlock_commit(buffer, event, + irq_flags, pc); } static int reg_event_syscall_enter(struct ftrace_event_file *file, -- 1.7.10.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
