Message-ID: <marc-linux-ia64-105590709805711@msgid-missing> (raw)
hello all,
I am a new-comer on Linux & IA64, and in order to learn all this technology, I
have started to port the Linux Trace Toolit V0.9.5a (see
http://www.opersys.com/LTT/index.html). So far, I have all the userland tools
and most of the kernel code running. This tool records system events and
produces trace files like :
Trace start time: (1042450308, 79287)
Trace end time: (1042450310, 79020)
Trace duration: (1, 999733)
Number of occurences of:
Events: 22647
Scheduling changes: 176
Kernel timer tics: 4083
System call entries: 0
System call exits: 0
Trap entries: 0
Trap exits: 0
IRQ entries: 4168
IRQ exits: 4168
Bottom halves: 0
Timer expiries: 3
Page allocations: 249
Page frees: 32
Packets Out: 38
Packets In: 40

I have included most of these trace points in the kernel code (2.5.45). However,
I need help to implement the tracing of syscall and traps... basically, I have
to call a C function which will record the syscall number and the user address
from which is issued the call :
/* LTT trace function for syscall entry (in arch/ia64/kernel/traps.c) */
asmlinkage void
ltt_trace_syscall (unsigned long stack)
{
struct pt_regs *regs = (struct pt_regs *) &stack;
trace_syscall_entry sys_entry;
sys_entry.syscall_id = (uint8_t)regs->r15;
sys_entry.address = (uint64_t) ????;
trace_event(TRACE_EV_SYSCALL_ENTRY, &sys_entry);
}
The call to this C function has to be inserted somewhere in the common path of
all syscalls :
in ivt.S ? :
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// 0x2c00 Entry 11 (size 64 bundles) Break instruction (33)
ENTRY(break_fault)
...
#ifdef CONFIG_TRACE
<save scratch regs>
<prepare out0>
br.call.sptk.many rp=ltt_trace_syscall // trace syscall
<restore scratch regs>
#endif //CONFIG_TRACE
All my tries so far have led to system hangs... I don't know neither how to save
and restore scratch regs in the assembly part, nor how to find the user address.
Thanks in advance for any help.
