[PATCH v11 0/4] ring-buffer: Making persistent ring buffers robust

[PATCH v11 0/4] ring-buffer: Making persistent ring buffers robust

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

Hi,

Here is the 12th version of improvement patches for making persistent
ring buffers robust to failures.
The previous version is here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/177391152793.193994.8986943289250629418.stgit@mhiramat.tok.corp.google.com/


In this version, I rebased it on tracing/fixes branch (thus
the first fix patch has been removed) and fixed
a build error which came from a copy-paste mistake.

Thank you,

---

[PATCH v11 1/4] ring-buffer: Flush and stop persistent ring buffer on panic

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

On real hardware, panic and machine reboot may not flush hardware cache
to memory. This means the persistent ring buffer, which relies on a
coherent state of memory, may not have its events written to the buffer
and they may be lost. Moreover, there may be inconsistency with the
counters which are used for validation of the integrity of the
persistent ring buffer which may cause all data to be discarded.

To avoid this issue, stop recording of the ring buffer on panic and
flush the cache of the ring buffer's memory.

Fixes: e645535a954a ("tracing: Add option to use memmapped memory for trace boot instance")

 Changes in v11:
   - Do nothing by default since flush_cache_vmap() does nothing on x86
     but it can cause deadlock on some architectures via on_each_cpu()
     because other CPUs will be stoppped when panic notifier is called.
 Changes in v9:
   - Fix typo of & to &&.
   - Fix typo of "Generic"
 Changes in v6:
   - Introduce asm/ring_buffer.h for arch_ring_buffer_flush_range().
   - Use flush_cache_vmap() instead of flush_cache_all().
 Changes in v5:
   - Use ring_buffer_record_off() instead of ring_buffer_record_disable().
   - Use flush_cache_all() to ensure flush all cache.
 Changes in v3:
   - update patch description.

[PATCH v11 2/4] ring-buffer: Skip invalid sub-buffers when validating persistent ring buffer

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Skip invalid sub-buffers when validating the persistent ring buffer
instead of discarding the entire ring buffer. Only skipped buffers
are invalidated (cleared).

If the cache data in memory fails to be synchronized during a reboot,
the persistent ring buffer may become partially corrupted, but other
sub-buffers may still contain readable event data. Only discard the
subbuffers that are found to be corrupted.

  Changes in v11:
  - Fix a typo.
  Changes in v9:
  - Add meta->subbuf_size check.
  - Fix a typo.
  - Handle invalid reader_page case.
  Changes in v8:
  - Add comment in rb_valudate_buffer()
  - Clear the RB_MISSED_* flags in rb_valudate_buffer() instead of
    skipping subbuf.
  - Remove unused subbuf local variable from rb_cpu_meta_valid().
  Changes in v7:
  - Combined with Handling RB_MISSED_* flags patch, focus on validation at boot.
  - Remove checking subbuffer data when validating metadata, because it should be done
    later.
  - Do not mark the discarded sub buffer page but just reset it.
  Changes in v6:
  - Show invalid page detection message once per CPU.
  Changes in v5:
  - Instead of showing errors for each page, just show the number
    of discarded pages at last.
  Changes in v3:
  - Record missed data event on commit.

[PATCH v11 3/4] ring-buffer: Skip invalid sub-buffers when rewinding persistent ring buffer

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Skip invalid sub-buffers when rewinding the persistent ring buffer
instead of stopping the rewinding the ring buffer. The skipped
buffers are cleared.

To ensure the rewinding stops at the unused page, this also clears
buffer_data_page::time_stamp when tracing resets the buffer. This
allows us to identify unused pages and empty pages.

Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>
---
 Changes in v12:
   - Fix build error.
 Changes in v11:
   - Reset timestamp when the buffer is invalid.
   - When rewinding, skip subbuf page if timestamp is wrong and
     check timestamp after validating buffer data page.
 Changes in v10:
   - Newly added.

[PATCH v11 4/4] ring-buffer: Add persistent ring buffer selftest

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Add a self-destractive test for the persistent ring buffer. This
will invalidate some sub-buffer pages in the persistent ring buffer
when kernel gets panic, and check whether the number of detected
invalid pages and the total entry_bytes are the same as record
after reboot.

This can ensure the kernel correctly recover partially corrupted
persistent ring buffer when boot.

The test only runs on the persistent ring buffer whose name is
"ptracingtest". And user has to fill it up with events before
kernel panics.

To run the test, enable CONFIG_RING_BUFFER_PERSISTENT_SELFTEST
and you have to setup the kernel cmdline;

 reserve_mem=20M:2M:trace trace_instance=ptracingtest^traceoff@trace
 panic=1

And run following commands after the 1st boot;

 cd /sys/kernel/tracing/instances/ptracingtest
 echo 1 > tracing_on
 echo 1 > events/enable
 sleep 3
 echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger

After panic message, the kernel will reboot and run the verification
on the persistent ring buffer, e.g.

 Ring buffer meta [2] invalid buffer page detected
 Ring buffer meta [2] is from previous boot! (318 pages discarded)
 Ring buffer testing [2] invalid pages: PASSED (318/318)
 Ring buffer testing [2] entry_bytes: PASSED (1300476/1300476)

Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>
---
 Changes in v10:
  - Add entry_bytes test.
  - Do not compile test code if CONFIG_RING_BUFFER_PERSISTENT_SELFTEST=n.
 Changes in v9:
  - Test also reader pages.
