Subject: [PATCH 1/1] perf trace: Collect sys_nanosleep first argument
Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2024 18:30:01 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Zbq72dJRpOlfRWnf@kernel.org> (raw)
That is a 'struct timespec' passed from userspace to the kernel as we
can see with a system wide syscall tracing:
root@number:~# perf trace -e nanosleep
0.000 (10.102 ms): podman/9150 nanosleep(rqtp: { .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }) = 0
38.924 (10.077 ms): podman/2195174 nanosleep(rqtp: { .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }) = 0
100.177 (10.107 ms): podman/9150 nanosleep(rqtp: { .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }) = 0

^Croot@number:~# strace -p 9150 -e nanosleep
If we then use the ptrace method to look at that podman process:
root@number:~# strace -p 9150 -e nanosleep
strace: Process 9150 attached
nanosleep({tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=10000000}, NULL) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=10000000}, NULL) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=10000000}, NULL) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=10000000}, NULL) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=10000000}, NULL) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=10000000}, NULL) = 0
nanosleep({tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=10000000}, NULL) = 0
^Cstrace: Process 9150 detached
root@number:~#
With some changes we can get something closer to the strace output,
still in system wide mode:
root@number:~# perf config trace.show_arg_names=false
root@number:~# perf config trace.show_duration=false
root@number:~# perf config trace.show_timestamp=false
root@number:~# perf config trace.show_zeros=true
root@number:~# perf config trace.args_alignment=0
root@number:~# perf trace -e nanosleep --max-events=10
podman/2195174 nanosleep({ .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }, NULL) = 0
podman/9150 nanosleep({ .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }, NULL) = 0
podman/2195174 nanosleep({ .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }, NULL) = 0
podman/9150 nanosleep({ .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }, NULL) = 0
podman/2195174 nanosleep({ .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }, NULL) = 0
podman/9150 nanosleep({ .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }, NULL) = 0
podman/2195174 nanosleep({ .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }, NULL) = 0

podman/9150 nanosleep({ .tv_sec: 0, .tv_nsec: 10000000 }, NULL) = 0
root@number:~#
root@number:~# perf config
trace.show_arg_names=false
trace.show_duration=false
trace.show_timestamp=false
trace.show_zeros=true
trace.args_alignment=0
root@number:~# cat ~/.perfconfig
# this file is auto-generated.
[trace]
show_arg_names = false
show_duration = false
show_timestamp = false
show_zeros = true
args_alignment = 0
root@number:~#
This will not get reused by any other syscall as nanosleep is the only
one to have as its first argument a 'struct timespec" pointer argument
passed from userspace to the kernel:
root@number:~# grep timespec /sys/kernel/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_*/format | grep offset:16
/sys/kernel/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_nanosleep/format: field:struct __kernel_timespec * rqtp; offset:16; size:8; signed:0;
root@number:~#
BTF based pretty printing will simplify all this, but then lets just get
the low hanging fruits first.
