VMI initialiation can relocate the fixmap, causing early_ioremap to

VMI activation is split into two phases; the detection, which must

I had crashes when I let this file traced. After some debugging, I saw
that the "current" task point was changed inside__swtich_to(), ie:

the original return address of the function inside current, we had
crashes. Only __switch_to() has to be excluded from tracing.
kernel/module.c and kernel/extable.c:
Because of a function used internally by the function graph tracer:
__kernel_text_address()

introduces the __notrace_funcgraph function prefix which is __notrace if
function graph tracer is configured and nothing if not.

Hi Alan,
Looking at the kernel driver code for oprofile it can return the "i386/p6" for
the cpu_type. However, looking at the user-space oprofile code there isn't the
matching entry in libop/op_cpu_type.c or the events/unit_mask files in
events/i386 directory.
The Intel AP-485 says this is a "Intel Pentium M processor model D". Seems like
the oprofile kernel driver should be identifying the processor as "i386/p6_mobile"
The driver identification code doesn't look quite right in nmi_init.c
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git;a=blob;f=arch/x86/oprofile/nmi_int.c;h=022cd41ea9b4106e5884277096e80e9088a7c7a9;hb=HEAD
has:
409 case 10 ... 13:
410 *cpu_type = "i386/p6";
411 break;
Referring to the Intel AP-485:
case 10 and 11 should produce "i386/piii"
case 13 should produce "i386/p6_mobile"
I didn't see anything for case 12.
Something like the attached patch. I don't have a celeron machine to verify that
changes in this area of the kernel fix thing.

Impact: better dumpstack output
I noticed in my crash dumps and even in the stack tracer that a
lot of functions listed in the stack trace are simply
return_to_handler which is ftrace graphs way to insert its own
call into the return of a function.
But we lose out where the actually function was called from.
This patch adds in hooks to the dumpstack mechanism that detects
this and finds the real function to print. Both are printed to
let the user know that a hook is still in place.
This does give a funny side effect in the stack tracer output:
Depth Size Location (80 entries)
----- ---- --------
0) 4144 48 save_stack_trace+0x2f/0x4d
1) 4096 128 ftrace_call+0x5/0x2b
2) 3968 16 mempool_alloc_slab+0x16/0x18
3) 3952 384 return_to_handler+0x0/0x73
4) 3568 -240 stack_trace_call+0x11d/0x209

7) 3792 128 return_to_handler+0x0/0x73
8) 3664 -32 scsi_sg_alloc+0x48/0x4a [scsi_mod]

to them not being found inside the stack.

Impact: new ftrace_graph_stop function
While developing more features of function graph, I hit a bug that
caused the WARN_ON to trigger in the prepare_ftrace_return function.
Well, it was hard for me to find out that was happening because the
bug would not print, it would just cause a hard lockup or reboot.
The reason is that it is not safe to call printk from this function.
Looking further, I also found that it calls unregister_ftrace_graph,
which grabs a mutex and calls kstop machine. This would definitely
lock the box up if it were to trigger.
This patch adds a fast and safe ftrace_graph_stop() which will
stop the function tracer. Then it is safe to call the WARN ON.

Impact: extend and enable the function graph tracer to 64-bit x86
This patch implements the support for function graph tracer under x86-64.
Both static and dynamic tracing are supported.
This causes some small CPP conditional asm on arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c I
wanted to use probe_kernel_read/write to make the return address
saving/patching code more generic but it causes tracing recursion.
That would be perhaps useful to implement a notrace version of these
function for other archs ports.
Note that arch/x86/process_64.c is not traced, as in X86-32. I first
thought __switch_to() was responsible of crashes during tracing because I
believed current task were changed inside but that's actually not the
case (actually yes, but not the "current" pointer).
So I will have to investigate to find the functions that harm here, to
enable tracing of the other functions inside (but there is no issue at
this time, while process_64.c stays out of -pg flags).
A little possible race condition is fixed inside this patch too. When the
tracer allocate a return stack dynamically, the current depth is not
initialized before but after. An interrupt could occur at this time and,
after seeing that the return stack is allocated, the tracer could try to
trace it with a random uninitialized depth. It's a prevention, even if I
hadn't problems with it.

x86_64. This patch reorders entry_64.S and explicitly generates
a separate section for functions that need the protection. The
generated code before and after the patch is equal.
Implicitly changing sections in assembly files makes it more
difficult to follow why the assembler is doing certain things.
For example,
.p2align 5
KPROBE_ENTRY(...)
was not doing what you would expect. Other section changes
(__ex_table, .fixup, .init.rodata) are done explicitly already.

It is possible for a shadow page to have a parent link
pointing to a freed page. When zapping a high level table,
kvm_mmu_page_unlink_children fails to remove the parent_pte link.
For that to happen, the child must be unreachable via the shadow
tree, which can happen in shadow_walk_entry if the guest pte was
modified in between walk() and fetch(). Remove the parent pte
reference in such case.
Possible cause for oops in bug #2217430.

Impact: new "power-tracer" ftrace plugin
This patch adds a C/P-state ftrace plugin that will generate
detailed statistics about the C/P-states that are being used,
so that we can look at detailed decisions that the C/P-state
code is making, rather than the too high level "average"
that we have today.
An example way of using this is:
mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
echo cstate > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled
sleep 1
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled

Impact: feature
This patch sets a C-like output for the function graph tracing.
For this aim, we now call two handler for each function: one on the entry
and one other on return. This way we can draw a well-ordered call stack.
The pid of the previous trace is loosely stored to be compared against
the one of the current trace to see if there were a context switch.
Without this little feature, the call tree would seem broken at
some locations.
We could use the sched_tracer to capture these sched_events but this
way of processing is much more simpler.
2 spaces have been chosen for indentation to fit the screen while deep
calls. The time of execution in nanosecs is printed just after closed
braces, it seems more easy this way to find the corresponding function.
If the time was printed as a first column, it would be not so easy to
find the corresponding function if it is called on a deep depth.
I plan to output the return value but on 32 bits CPU, the return value
can be 32 or 64, and its difficult to guess on which case we are.
I don't know what would be the better solution on X86-32: only print
eax (low-part) or even edx (high-part).
Actually it's thee same problem when a function return a 8 bits value, the
high part of eax could contain junk values...

A workaround for AMD CPU family 11h erratum 311 might cause that the
P-state Status Register shows a "current P-state" which is larger than
the "current P-state limit" in P-state Current Limit Register. For the
wrong P-state value there is no ACPI _PSS object defined and
powernow-k8/cpufreq can't determine the proper CPU frequency for that
state.
As a consequence this can cause a panic during boot (potentially with
all recent kernel versions -- at least I have reproduced it with
various 2.6.27 kernels and with the current .28 series), as an
example:
powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Turion(tm)X2 Ultra DualCore Mobile ZM-82 processors (2 \

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
In short, aftereffect of the wrong P-state is that
cpufreq_stats_update() uses "-1" as index for some array in
cpufreq_stats_update (unsigned int cpu)
{
...
if (stat->time_in_state)
stat->time_in_state[stat->last_index] =
cputime64_add(stat->time_in_state[stat->last_index],
cputime_sub(cur_time, stat->last_time));
...
}
Fortunately, the wrong P-state value is returned only if the core is
in P-state 0. This fix solves the problem by detecting the
out-of-range P-state, ignoring it, and using "0" instead.

pushed into stack. If something get wrong in do_exit, for x86_64, the
entry "kernel_execve +0x00/0xXX" rather than "child_rip +0xYY/0xZZ" is
in the call trace.
That looks confusing, so add a u2d to make the return address still part
of the original call site. (This also catches any instances of us returning

It's usefull to catch unbalanced or messed or mixed declarations of ENTRY and

For example the following code would compile without problems
ENTRY_X86(mcount)

END_X86(mcount)
But if you forget and mess the following form
ENTRY_X86(mcount)
retq
END(mcount)
ENTRY_X86(ftrace_caller)
The assembler will issue the following message:
Error: ENTRY_X86/KPROBE_X86 unbalanced,missed,mixed
Actually the checking is performed at every _X86 macro
so maybe it's good idea to put ENTRY_KPROBE_FINAL_X86
at the end of .S file to be sure you didn't miss anything.

Impact: add new (default-off) tracing visualization feature
Usage example:
mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl
echo sched_switch >current_tracer
echo 1 >tracing_enabled
.... run application ...
echo 0 >tracing_enabled
Then read one of 'trace','latency_trace','trace_pipe'.
To get the best output you can compile your userspace programs with
frame pointers (at least glibc + the app you are tracing).

Impact: use deeper function tracing depth safely
Some tests showed that function return tracing needed a more deeper depth
of function calls. But it could be unsafe to store these return addresses
to the stack.
So these arrays will now be allocated dynamically into task_struct of current
only when the tracer is activated.
Typical scheme when tracer is activated:
- allocate a return stack for each task in global list.
- fork: allocate the return stack for the newly created task
- exit: free return stack of current
- idle init: same as fork
I chose a default depth of 50. I don't have overruns anymore.

Impact: cleanup
Simplify the irq-sampled stack overflow debug check:
- eliminate an #idef
- use WARN_ONCE() to emit a single warning (all bets are off
after the first such warning anyway)

Impact: make stack overflow debug check and printout narrower
stack_overflow_check() should consider the stack usage of pt_regs, and
thus it could warn us in advance. Additionally, it looks better for
the warning time to start at INITIAL_JIFFIES.
Assuming that rsp gets close to the check point before interrupt
arrives: when interrupt really happens, thread_info will be partly
overrode.

Impact: Reverts default reboot method.
Checkin 14d7ca5c57 changed the default
reboot method to "pci", a.k.a. port CF9. Unfortunately this has been
shown to cause lockups on at least two systems for which REBOOT_KBD
worked, both Thinkpads with Intel chipsets. This reverts the default
to REBOOT_KBD, while leaving the option to have "reboot=pci" specified
explicitly or via a DMI match.

Impact: fix bootup crash
Even though it tested fine for me, there was still a bug in the
first patch: I have overlooked a call to ptregscall_common. This
patch fixes that, I think, but the code is never executed for
me while running a debian install... (I tested this by putting
an "1:jmp 1b" in there.)

Impact: cleanup
DISABLE_INTERRUPTS(CLBR_NONE)/TRACE_IRQS_OFF is now always
executed just before paranoid_exit. Move it there.
Split out paranoidzeroentry, paranoiderrorentry, and
paranoidzeroentry_ist to get more readable macro's.
