perf: Take a hot regs snapshot for trace events We are taking a wrong regs snapshot when a trace event triggers. Either we use get_irq_regs(), which gives us the interrupted registers if we are in an interrupt, or we use task_pt_regs() which gives us the state before we entered the kernel, assuming we are lucky enough to be no kernel thread, in which case task_pt_regs() returns the initial set of regs when the kernel thread was started. What we want is different. We need a hot snapshot of the regs, so that we can get the instruction pointer to record in the sample, the frame pointer for the callchain, and some other things. Let's use the new perf_fetch_caller_regs() for that. Comparison with perf record -e lock: -R -a -f -g Before: perf [kernel] [k] __do_softirq | --- __do_softirq | |--55.16%-- __open | --44.84%-- __write_nocancel After: perf [kernel] [k] perf_tp_event | --- perf_tp_event | |--41.07%-- lock_acquire | | | |--39.36%-- _raw_spin_lock | | | | | |--7.81%-- hrtimer_interrupt | | | smp_apic_timer_interrupt | | | apic_timer_interrupt The old case was producing unreliable callchains. Now having right frame and instruction pointers, we have the trace we want.

tracing, perf_events: Protect the buffer from recursion in perf While tracing using events with perf, if one enables the lockdep:lock_acquire event, it will infect every other perf trace events. Basically, you can enable whatever set of trace events through perf but if this event is part of the set, the only result we can get is a long list of lock_acquire events of rcu read lock, and only that. This is because of a recursion inside perf. 1) When a trace event is triggered, it will fill a per cpu buffer and submit it to perf. 2) Perf will commit this event but will also protect some data using rcu_read_lock 3) A recursion appears: rcu_read_lock triggers a lock_acquire event that will fill the per cpu event and then submit the buffer to perf. 4) Perf detects a recursion and ignores it 5) Perf continues its work on the previous event, but its buffer has been overwritten by the lock_acquire event, it has then been turned into a lock_acquire event of rcu read lock Such scenario also happens with lock_release with rcu_read_unlock(). We could turn the rcu_read_lock() into __rcu_read_lock() to drop the lock debugging from perf fast path, but that would make us lose the rcu debugging and that doesn't prevent from other possible kind of recursion from perf in the future. This patch adds a recursion protection based on a counter on the perf trace per cpu buffers to solve the problem. -v2: Fixed lost whitespace, added reviewed-by tag Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> LKML-Reference: <1257477185-7838-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
