The +trace interface builds on the relay interface. For a complete +description of the relay interface, please see: +Documentation/filesystems/relay.txt. + +The trace interface provides a single layer in a complete tracing +application. Trace provides a kernel API that can be used for the setup +and control of tracing channels. User of trace must provide a data layer +responsible for formatting and writing data into the trace channels. + +A layered approach to tracing +============================= +A complete kernel tracing application consists of a data provider and +a data consumer. Both provider and consumer contain three layers; each +layer works in tandem with the corresponding layer in the opposite side. +The layers are represented in the following diagram. + +Provider Data layer + Formats raw trace data and provides data-related service. + For example, adding timestamps used by consumer to sort data. + +Provider Control layer + Provided by the trace interface, this layer creates trace channels + and informs the data layer and consumer of the current state + of the trace channels. + +Provider Buffering layer + Provided by relay. This layer buffers data in the + kernel for consumption by the consumer's buffer + layer. + +Provider (in-kernel facility) +----------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Consumer (user application) + + +Consumer Buffer layer + Reads/consumes data from the provider's data buffers. + +Consumer Control layer + Communicates to the provider's control layer to control the state + of the trace channels. + +Consumer Data layer + Sorts and formats data as provided by the provider's data layer. + +The provider is coded as a kernel facility. The consumer is coded as +a user application. + + +Trace - Features +================ +Trace exploits services and features provided by relay. These features +are: +- The creation and destruction of relay channels. +- Buffer management. Overwrite or non-overwrite modes can be selected + as well as global or per-CPU buffering. + +Overwrite mode can be called "flight recorder mode". Flight recorder +mode is selected by setting the TRACE_FLIGHT_CHANNEL flag when +creating trace channels. In flight mode when a tracing buffer is +full, the oldest records in the buffer will be discarded to make room +as new records arrive. In the default non-overwrite mode, new records +may be written only if the buffer has room. In either case, to +prevent data loss, a user space reader must keep the buffers +drained. Trace provides a means to detect the number of records that +have been dropped due to a buffer-full condition (non-overwrite mode +only). + +When per-CPU buffers are used, relay creates one debugfs file for each +running CPU. The user-space consumer of the data is responsible for +reading the per-CPU buffers and collating the records presumably using +a time stamp or sequence number included in the trace records. The +use of global buffers eliminates this extra work of sequencing +records; however the provider's data layer must hold a lock when +writing records. The lock prevents writers running on different CPUs +from overwriting each other's data. However, buffering may be slower +because writes to the buffer are serialized. Global buffering is +selected by setting the TRACE_GLOBAL_CHANNEL flag when creating trace +channels. + +Trace User Interface +=================== +When a trace channel is created and started, the following +directories and files are created in the root of the mounted debugfs. + +/debug (root of the debugfs) + / + / + trace0 ... traceN Per-CPU trace data, one + file per CPU. + + state Start or stop tracing by + by writing the strings + "start" or "stop" to this + file. Read the file to get the + current state. + + dropped The number of records dropped + due to a full-buffer condition, + for non-TRACE_FLIGHT_CHANNELs + only. + + rewind Trigger a rewind by writing + to this file. i.e. start + next read at the beginning + again. Only available for + TRACE_FLIGHT_CHANNELS. + + + nr_sub Number of sub-buffers + in the channel. + + sub_size Size of sub-buffers in + the channnel. + +Trace data is gathered from the trace[0...N] files using one of the +available interfaces provided by relay. + +When using the READ(2) interface, as data is read it is marked as +consumed by the relay subsystem. Therefore, subsequent reads will +only return unconsumed data. + +Trace Kernel API +=============== +An overview of the trace Kernel API is now given. More details of the +API can be found in linux/trace.h. + +The steps a kernel data provider takes to utilize the trace interface are: +1) Set up a trace channel - trace_setup() +2) Start the trace channel - trace_start() +3) Write one or more trace records into the channel (using the relay API). + + Important: When writing a trace record the provider must insure that + preemption is disabled and that trace state is set to "running". a + typical function used to write records into a trace channel should + follow the following semantics: + + rcu_read_lock(); // disables preemption + if (trace_running(trace)){ + relay_write(....); // use any available relay data + function + } + rcu_read_unlock(); // enables preemption + +4) Stop and start tracing as desired - trace_start()/trace_stop() +5) Destroy the trace channel and underlying relay channel - +trace_cleanup(). + +Trace Example +=========== + +This small sample module creates a trace channel. It places a kprobe +on the function do_fork(). The value of current->pid is writen to +the trace channel. + +You can build the kernel module fork_trace.ko using the following +Makefile: +------------------------------------CUT------------------------------------- +obj-m := fork_trace.o +KDIR := /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build +PWD := $(shell pwd) +default: + $(MAKE) -C $(KDIR) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules +clean: + rm -f *.mod.c *.ko *.o +----------------------------------CUT-------------------------------------- + +/* fork_trace.c - An example of using trace in a kprobes module */ +#include +#include +#include +#include + +#define USE_GLOBAL_BUFFERS 1 +#define USE_FLIGHT 1 + +#define PROBE_POINT "do_fork" + +static struct kprobe kp; +struct trace_info *kprobes_trace; + +#ifdef USE_GLOBAL_BUFFERS +static DEFINE_SPINLOCK(trace_lock); +#endif + +#define TRACE_PRINTF_TMPBUF_SIZE (1024) +static char trace_tmpbuf[NR_CPUS][TRACE_PRINTF_TMPBUF_SIZE]; + +void trace_printf(struct trace_info *trace, const char *format, ...) +{ + va_list args; + void *buf; + char *record; + int len=0; + + if (!trace) + return; + + buf = trace_tmpbuf[smp_processor_id()]; + +#ifdef USE_GLOBAL_BUFFERS + spin_lock(&trace_lock); +#endif + + rcu_read_lock(); + if (trace_running(trace)){ + va_start(args, format); + len += vsnprintf(buf+len, TRACE_PRINTF_TMPBUF_SIZE, + format, args); + va_end(args); + + if ((record = relay_reserve(trace->rchan, len))) + memcpy(record, buf, len); + } + rcu_read_unlock(); + +#ifdef USE_GLOBAL_BUFFERS + spin_unlock(&trace_lock); +#endif +} + + +int handler_pre(struct kprobe *p, struct pt_regs *regs) +{ + trace_printf(kprobes_trace,"%d\n", current->pid); + return 0; +} + + +int init_module(void) +{ + u32 flags=0; + +#ifdef USE_GLOBAL_BUFFERS + flags |= TRACE_GLOBAL_CHANNEL; +#endif + +#ifdef USE_FLIGHT + flags |= TRACE_FLIGHT_CHANNEL; +#endif + + /* setup the trace */ + kprobes_trace = trace_setup("trace_example",PROBE_POINT, + 1024,8,flags); + if (!kprobes_trace) + return -1; + + trace_start(kprobes_trace); + + /* setup the kprobe */ + kp.pre_handler = handler_pre; + kp.post_handler = NULL; + kp.fault_handler = NULL; + kp.symbol_name = PROBE_POINT; + if (register_kprobe(&kp) < 0) { + printk("fork_trace: register_kprobe failed\n"); + return -1; + } + return 0; +} + +void cleanup_module(void) +{ + unregister_kprobe(&kp); + trace_stop(kprobes_trace); + trace_cleanup(kprobes_trace); +} + +MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); +-----------------------------CUT----------------------------------- +How to run the example: +$ mount -t debugfs /debug +$ make +$ insmod fork_trace.ko + +To view the data produced by the module: +$ cat /debug/trace_example/do_fork/trace0 + +Remove the module. +$ rmmod fork_trace + +The function trace_cleanup() is called when the module +is removed.
