Subject: [RFC PATCH v6 04/34] dyndbg: split struct _ddebug's display fields to new _ddebug_site
Migrate 3 fields: module, function, file into a new struct _ddebug_site.
These reflect the code's hierarchy, and are inherently ordered by the
compile/link; they exhibit 90%,55%,45% repetition (on my fedora based,
localmodconfig'd, virtme-configkernel --update'd conf).
Since struct _ddebugs are placed in their own elf section, this means
splitting its section also. The new section is named "__dyndbg_sites"
(the plural name conveys the vector nature of the contents), and
"__dyndbg" is renamed "__dyndbgs" to reinforce this.
Struct _ddebug gets a new .site, pointing to a struct _ddebug_site.
The new ptr increases memory footprint, but it is temporary
scaffolding; once we can map from _ddebugs[N] --> _ddebug_sites[N]
indirectly, we can drop site pointer, regaining worst case memory
parity with master.
The indirection gives several advantages:
- site ptr lets us decouple the 2 arrays
we can properly isolate dependencies by allowing null site
- the moved display fields are inherently hierarchical, and the linker
section is ordered; so (module, file, function) have repeating
values (90%, 85%, 45%). This is readily compressible, even with a
simple field-wise run length encoding. Since I'm splitting the struct,
I also reordered the fields to match the hierarchy.
- the separate linker section sets up naturally for block compression.
section compression at build time is practical - how ?
include/linux/decompress/generic.h has no corresponding compression
- we could drop sites and their storage opportunistically.
this could reduce per-site mem by 24/56.
Subsystems may not need/want "module:func:line:" in their logs.
If they already use format-prefixes such as "drm:kms:",
they can select on those, and don't need the site info for that.
forex:
#> echo module drm format "^drm:kms: " +p >control
ie: dynamic_debug_exec_queries("format '^drm:kms: '", "drm");
Once we can map: ddebugs[N] -> ddebug_sites[N], we can:
- compress __dyndbg_sites during __init, and mark section __initdata
- store the compressed block instead.
- decompress on-demand, stream for `cat control`
- save chunks of decompressed buffer for enabled callsites
- free chunks on site disable, or on memory pressure.
Whats actually done here is ths rather mechanical, and preparatory.
dynamic_debug.h:
I cut struct _ddebug in half, renamed the optional top-half to
_ddebug_site, kept __align(8) for both halves. I added a forward decl
for a unified comment for both head & body, and added _ddebug.site to
point at body.
DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA now declares and initializes a 2nd
static struct var holding the _ddebug_site, and refs _ddebug to it.
dynamic_debug.c:
dynamic_debug_init() mem-usage now also counts sites.
dynamic_emit_prefix() & ddebug_change() use those moved fields; they
get a new initialized auto-var, and the field refs get adjusted as
needed to follow the field moves from one struct to the other.
struct _ddebug_site *dc = dp->site;
ddebug_proc_show() differs slightly; it assigns to (not initializes)
the autovar, to avoid a panic when p == SEQ_START_TOKEN.
vmlinux.lds.h:
1st, move the original set of __dyndbg___start|stop directives into a
new macro; this puts a name (and a block of blamelog) on this and
future changes. Also, since compressed elf sections are supported,
maybe we can use it on our "__dyndbg_sites" section; the macro better
isolates the items involved in such a move.
Then add in new "__dyndbg_sites" section and its start|stop symbols.
I kept the same align(8) and KEEP as used in the "__dyndbgs" section,
but I think this can be relaxed; I suspect the align is there for the
static-key member, which has state encoded in 2 LSBs, and _ddebug_site
doesnt have a key. That said, I dont think anything is gained by
changing.
