[RFC patch 00/20] LTTng Kernel Trace Thread Flag v2

[RFC patch 00/20] LTTng Kernel Trace Thread Flag v2

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Frederic noticed that the assembly file modifications I did were not present in
the TIF_* modifications. So I took them from my lttng architecture specific
instrumentation files and integrated them into each architecture's TIF addition.

Sorry for the quick repost.

[-- Attachment #1: lttng-kernel-trace-thread-flag-ia64.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3439 bytes --]

Add a thread flag to activate system-wide syscall tracing.

FIXME : Masami reported that enabling the KERNEL_TRACE thread flag did disable
the gate page for gettimeofday, falling back on a standard system call. More
work would be needed in this area and I don't have the architecture available.

[RFC patch 18/20] LTTng Linux Kernel Trace Thread Flag x86

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

[-- Attachment #1: lttng-kernel-trace-thread-flag-x86.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4635 bytes --]

Add a thread flag to activate system-wide syscall tracing.

Make x86 support TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE async flag set in entry_32.S/entry_64.S.

x86_64 :

When the flag is inactive upon syscall entry and concurrently activated before
exit, we seem to reach a state where the top of stack is incorrect upon return
to user space.

Fix this by fixing the top of stack and jumping to int_ret_from_sys_call if we
detect that thread flags has been modified.

We make sure that the thread flag read is coherent between our new test and the ALLWORK_MASK test by first saving it in a register used for both comparisons.

[-- Attachment #1: lttng-kernel-trace-thread-flag-api.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4159 bytes --]

Add an API to set/clear the kernel wide tracing thread flags. Implemented in
kernel/sched.c. Updates thread flags *asynchronously* while holding the tasklist
read lock.

Upon fork, the flag must be re-copied while the tasklist write lock is held.

We are holding the read lock only to make sure we don't delay thread creation
for too long while iterating on all threads.

[RFC patch 00/20] Kernel tracing thread flag

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

This is the generalisation of the TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE thread flag for :

- multiple tracers (even accessible from modules)
- multiple architectures

It includes :

- Addition of the TIF_KERNEL_TRACE for all Linux architectures.
- Modification of some architecture entry*.S files to ensure that the thread
  flag is re-read upon syscall exit to ensure that syscall exit is traced.
  Basically, what I try to achieve here is to make sure that given the following
  sequence will get its syscall exit event traced :

- Thread preempted in a system call
- Activation of all TIF_KERNEL_TRACE thread flags
- ...enough time passes to expect that all tracing sites are activated...
- syscall exit -> expected to be traced

But if the thread flags used at syscall exit are the same that has been read at
syscall entry, the event will be skipped. This does not permit reaching a known
"quiescent state" where we know that all tracing sites are activated.

Note that having non-perfectly matched syscall trace entry/exit may have
implications wrt getname/putname refcounting for instance, and could cause
problems if getname/putname was used in the syscall entry/exit pairs. We will
have to deal with this somehow when we face this problem. Keeping a per-thread
flag saying that a matching syscall_entry tracing has been executed could fix
this problem. We could even re-use TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE for this specific purpose.

I think you missed the comment above this hunk in the code..

This will blow up immediately, _TIF_ALLWORK_MASK must presently fit
within a byte, as it just happens to right now. If this can take the
place of _TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE in the future, then that bit position can be
used instead, otherwise the assembly code will have to be rewritten to
load a larger value, which means we lose the ability to load the mask as
an immediate without resorting to shifting and masking :-(

Other platforms have similar constraints, have you verified that this is
not a problem on any of the other platforms?

I'll of course rewrite the assembly if we can't avoid it.
