Histogram triggers are special event triggers that can be used to
|
|
|
|
|
aggregate trace event data into histograms. For information on

2. Histogram Trigger Command
|
|
|
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A histogram trigger command is an event trigger command that
|
|
|
|
|
aggregates event hits into a hash table keyed on one or more trace
|
|
|
|
|
event format fields (or stacktrace) and a set of running totals
|
|
|
|
|
derived from one or more trace event format fields and/or event
|
|
|
|
|
counts (hitcount).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
The format of a hist trigger is as follows::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hist:keys=<field1[,field2,...]>[:values=<field1[,field2,...]>]
|
|
|
|
|
[:sort=<field1[,field2,...]>][:size=#entries][:pause][:continue]
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
[:clear][:name=histname1][:<handler>.<action>] [if <filter>]
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When a matching event is hit, an entry is added to a hash table
|
|
|
|
|
using the key(s) and value(s) named. Keys and values correspond to
|
|
|
|
|
fields in the event's format description. Values must correspond to
|
|
|
|
|
numeric fields - on an event hit, the value(s) will be added to a
|
|
|
|
|
sum kept for that field. The special string 'hitcount' can be used
|
|
|
|
|
in place of an explicit value field - this is simply a count of
|
|
|
|
|
event hits. If 'values' isn't specified, an implicit 'hitcount'
|
|
|
|
|
value will be automatically created and used as the only value.
|
|
|
|
|
Keys can be any field, or the special string 'stacktrace', which
|
|
|
|
|
will use the event's kernel stacktrace as the key. The keywords
|
|
|
|
|
'keys' or 'key' can be used to specify keys, and the keywords
|
|
|
|
|
'values', 'vals', or 'val' can be used to specify values. Compound
|
|
|
|
|
keys consisting of up to two fields can be specified by the 'keys'
|
|
|
|
|
keyword. Hashing a compound key produces a unique entry in the
|
|
|
|
|
table for each unique combination of component keys, and can be
|
|
|
|
|
useful for providing more fine-grained summaries of event data.
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, sort keys consisting of up to two fields can be
|
|
|
|
|
specified by the 'sort' keyword. If more than one field is
|
|
|
|
|
specified, the result will be a 'sort within a sort': the first key
|
|
|
|
|
is taken to be the primary sort key and the second the secondary
|
|
|
|
|
key. If a hist trigger is given a name using the 'name' parameter,
|
|
|
|
|
its histogram data will be shared with other triggers of the same
|
|
|
|
|
name, and trigger hits will update this common data. Only triggers
|
|
|
|
|
with 'compatible' fields can be combined in this way; triggers are
|
|
|
|
|
'compatible' if the fields named in the trigger share the same
|
|
|
|
|
number and type of fields and those fields also have the same names.
|
|
|
|
|
Note that any two events always share the compatible 'hitcount' and
|
|
|
|
|
'stacktrace' fields and can therefore be combined using those
|
|
|
|
|
fields, however pointless that may be.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
'hist' triggers add a 'hist' file to each event's subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
|
Reading the 'hist' file for the event will dump the hash table in
|
|
|
|
|
its entirety to stdout. If there are multiple hist triggers
|
|
|
|
|
attached to an event, there will be a table for each trigger in the
|
|
|
|
|
output. The table displayed for a named trigger will be the same as
|
|
|
|
|
any other instance having the same name. Each printed hash table
|
|
|
|
|
entry is a simple list of the keys and values comprising the entry;
|
|
|
|
|
keys are printed first and are delineated by curly braces, and are
|
|
|
|
|
followed by the set of value fields for the entry. By default,
|
|
|
|
|
numeric fields are displayed as base-10 integers. This can be
|
|
|
|
|
modified by appending any of the following modifiers to the field
|
|
|
|
|
name:
|

|
|
Note that in general the semantics of a given field aren't
|
|
|
|
|
interpreted when applying a modifier to it, but there are some
|
|
|
|
|
restrictions to be aware of in this regard:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- only the 'hex' modifier can be used for values (because values
|
|
|
|
|
are essentially sums, and the other modifiers don't make sense
|
|
|
|
|
in that context).
|
|
|
|
|
- the 'execname' modifier can only be used on a 'common_pid'. The
|
|
|
|
|
reason for this is that the execname is simply the 'comm' value
|
|
|
|
|
saved for the 'current' process when an event was triggered,
|
|
|
|
|
which is the same as the common_pid value saved by the event
|
|
|
|
|
tracing code. Trying to apply that comm value to other pid
|
|
|
|
|
values wouldn't be correct, and typically events that care save
|
|
|
|
|
pid-specific comm fields in the event itself.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A typical usage scenario would be the following to enable a hist
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
trigger, read its current contents, and then turn it off::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_rx/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_rx/hist
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo '!hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_rx/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The trigger file itself can be read to show the details of the
|
|
|
|
|
currently attached hist trigger. This information is also displayed
|
|
|
|
|
at the top of the 'hist' file when read.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, the size of the hash table is 2048 entries. The 'size'
|
|
|
|
|
parameter can be used to specify more or fewer than that. The units
|
|
|
|
|
are in terms of hashtable entries - if a run uses more entries than
|
|
|
|
|
specified, the results will show the number of 'drops', the number
|
|
|
|
|
of hits that were ignored. The size should be a power of 2 between
|
|
|
|
|
128 and 131072 (any non- power-of-2 number specified will be rounded
|
|
|
|
|
up).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 'sort' parameter can be used to specify a value field to sort
|
|
|
|
|
on. The default if unspecified is 'hitcount' and the default sort
|
|
|
|
|
order is 'ascending'. To sort in the opposite direction, append
|
|
|
|
|
.descending' to the sort key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 'pause' parameter can be used to pause an existing hist trigger
|
|
|
|
|
or to start a hist trigger but not log any events until told to do
|
|
|
|
|
so. 'continue' or 'cont' can be used to start or restart a paused
|
|
|
|
|
hist trigger.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 'clear' parameter will clear the contents of a running hist
|
|
|
|
|
trigger and leave its current paused/active state.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the 'pause', 'cont', and 'clear' parameters should be
|
|
|
|
|
applied using 'append' shell operator ('>>') if applied to an
|
|
|
|
|
existing trigger, rather than via the '>' operator, which will cause
|
|
|
|
|
the trigger to be removed through truncation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- enable_hist/disable_hist
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The enable_hist and disable_hist triggers can be used to have one
|
|
|
|
|
event conditionally start and stop another event's already-attached
|
|
|
|
|
hist trigger. Any number of enable_hist and disable_hist triggers
|
|
|
|
|
can be attached to a given event, allowing that event to kick off
|
|
|
|
|
and stop aggregations on a host of other events.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
The format is very similar to the enable/disable_event triggers::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
enable_hist:<system>:<event>[:count]
|
|
|
|
|
disable_hist:<system>:<event>[:count]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Instead of enabling or disabling the tracing of the target event
|
|
|
|
|
into the trace buffer as the enable/disable_event triggers do, the
|
|
|
|
|
enable/disable_hist triggers enable or disable the aggregation of
|
|
|
|
|
the target event into a hash table.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A typical usage scenario for the enable_hist/disable_hist triggers
|
|
|
|
|
would be to first set up a paused hist trigger on some event,
|
|
|
|
|
followed by an enable_hist/disable_hist pair that turns the hist
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
aggregation on and off when conditions of interest are hit::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len:pause' > \
|

|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The above sets up an initially paused hist trigger which is unpaused
|
|
|
|
|
and starts aggregating events when a given program is executed, and
|
|
|
|
|
which stops aggregating when the process exits and the hist trigger
|
|
|
|
|
is paused again.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The examples below provide a more concrete illustration of the
|
|
|
|
|
concepts and typical usage patterns discussed above.

'special' event fields

------------------------
|
2018-01-16 02:52:03 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are a number of 'special event fields' available for use as
|
|
|
|
|
keys or values in a hist trigger. These look like and behave as if
|
|
|
|
|
they were actual event fields, but aren't really part of the event's
|
|
|
|
|
field definition or format file. They are however available for any
|
|
|
|
|
event, and can be used anywhere an actual event field could be.
|
|
|
|
|
They are:

common_timestamp u64 timestamp (from ring buffer) associated
|
|
|
|
|
with the event, in nanoseconds. May be

|
|
|
|
modified by .usecs to have timestamps
|
|
|
|
|
interpreted as microseconds.

6.2 'hist' trigger examples
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first set of examples creates aggregations using the kmalloc
|
|
|
|
|
event. The fields that can be used for the hist trigger are listed
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
in the kmalloc event's format file::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/format
|
|
|
|
|
name: kmalloc
|
|
|
|
|
ID: 374
|
|
|
|
|
format:
|
|
|
|
|
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
|
|
|
|
|
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
|
|
|
|
|
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0;
|
|
|
|
|
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
field:unsigned long call_site; offset:8; size:8; signed:0;
|
|
|
|
|
field:const void * ptr; offset:16; size:8; signed:0;
|
|
|
|
|
field:size_t bytes_req; offset:24; size:8; signed:0;
|
|
|
|
|
field:size_t bytes_alloc; offset:32; size:8; signed:0;
|
|
|
|
|
field:gfp_t gfp_flags; offset:40; size:4; signed:0;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We'll start by creating a hist trigger that generates a simple table
|
|
|
|
|
that lists the total number of bytes requested for each function in
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
the kernel that made one or more calls to kmalloc::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:key=call_site:val=bytes_req' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This tells the tracing system to create a 'hist' trigger using the
|
|
|
|
|
call_site field of the kmalloc event as the key for the table, which
|
|
|
|
|
just means that each unique call_site address will have an entry
|
|
|
|
|
created for it in the table. The 'val=bytes_req' parameter tells
|
|
|
|
|
the hist trigger that for each unique entry (call_site) in the
|
|
|
|
|
table, it should keep a running total of the number of bytes
|
|
|
|
|
requested by that call_site.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We'll let it run for awhile and then dump the contents of the 'hist'
|
|
|
|
|
file in the kmalloc event's subdirectory (for readability, a number
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
of entries have been omitted)::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/hist
|
|
|
|
|
# trigger info: hist:keys=call_site:vals=bytes_req:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{ call_site: 18446744072106379007 } hitcount: 1 bytes_req: 176
|
|
|
|
|

The output displays a line for each entry, beginning with the key
|
|
|
|
|
specified in the trigger, followed by the value(s) also specified in
|
|
|
|
|
the trigger. At the beginning of the output is a line that displays
|
|
|
|
|
the trigger info, which can also be displayed by reading the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
'trigger' file::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
hist:keys=call_site:vals=bytes_req:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At the end of the output are a few lines that display the overall
|
|
|
|
|
totals for the run. The 'Hits' field shows the total number of
|
|
|
|
|
times the event trigger was hit, the 'Entries' field shows the total
|
|
|
|
|
number of used entries in the hash table, and the 'Dropped' field
|
|
|
|
|
shows the number of hits that were dropped because the number of
|
|
|
|
|
used entries for the run exceeded the maximum number of entries
|
|
|
|
|
allowed for the table (normally 0, but if not a hint that you may
|
|
|
|
|
want to increase the size of the table using the 'size' parameter).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notice in the above output that there's an extra field, 'hitcount',
|
|
|
|
|
which wasn't specified in the trigger. Also notice that in the
|
|
|
|
|
trigger info output, there's a parameter, 'sort=hitcount', which
|
|
|
|
|
wasn't specified in the trigger either. The reason for that is that
|
|
|
|
|
every trigger implicitly keeps a count of the total number of hits
|
|
|
|
|
attributed to a given entry, called the 'hitcount'. That hitcount
|
|
|
|
|
information is explicitly displayed in the output, and in the
|
|
|
|
|
absence of a user-specified sort parameter, is used as the default
|
|
|
|
|
sort field.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The value 'hitcount' can be used in place of an explicit value in
|
|
|
|
|
the 'values' parameter if you don't really need to have any
|
|
|
|
|
particular field summed and are mainly interested in hit
|
|
|
|
|
frequencies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To turn the hist trigger off, simply call up the trigger in the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
command history and re-execute it with a '!' prepended::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo '!hist:key=call_site:val=bytes_req' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finally, notice that the call_site as displayed in the output above
|
|
|
|
|
isn't really very useful. It's an address, but normally addresses
|
|
|
|
|
are displayed in hex. To have a numeric field displayed as a hex
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
value, simply append '.hex' to the field name in the trigger::

Even that's only marginally more useful - while hex values do look
|
|
|
|
|
more like addresses, what users are typically more interested in
|
|
|
|
|
when looking at text addresses are the corresponding symbols
|
|
|
|
|
instead. To have an address displayed as symbolic value instead,
|
|
|
|

simply append '.sym' or '.sym-offset' to the field name in the

Because the default sort key above is 'hitcount', the above shows a
|
|
|
|
|
the list of call_sites by increasing hitcount, so that at the bottom
|
|
|
|
|
we see the functions that made the most kmalloc calls during the
|
|
|
|
|
run. If instead we we wanted to see the top kmalloc callers in
|
|
|
|
|
terms of the number of bytes requested rather than the number of
|
|
|
|
|
calls, and we wanted the top caller to appear at the top, we can use
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
the 'sort' parameter, along with the 'descending' modifier::

We can also add multiple fields to the 'values' parameter. For
|
|
|
|
|
example, we might want to see the total number of bytes allocated
|
|
|
|
|
alongside bytes requested, and display the result sorted by bytes
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00

allocated in a descending order::

Finally, to finish off our kmalloc example, instead of simply having
|
|
|
|
|
the hist trigger display symbolic call_sites, we can have the hist
|
|
|
|
|
trigger additionally display the complete set of kernel stack traces
|
|
|
|
|
that led to each call_site. To do that, we simply use the special
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
value 'stacktrace' for the key parameter::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=stacktrace:values=bytes_req,bytes_alloc:sort=bytes_alloc' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The above trigger will use the kernel stack trace in effect when an
|
|
|
|
|
event is triggered as the key for the hash table. This allows the
|
|
|
|
|
enumeration of every kernel callpath that led up to a particular
|
|
|
|
|
event, along with a running total of any of the event fields for
|
|
|
|
|
that event. Here we tally bytes requested and bytes allocated for
|
|
|
|
|
every callpath in the system that led up to a kmalloc (in this case
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
every callpath to a kmalloc for a kernel compile)::

If you key a hist trigger on common_pid, in order for example to
|
|
|
|
|
gather and display sorted totals for each process, you can use the
|
|
|
|
|
special .execname modifier to display the executable names for the
|
|
|
|
|
processes in the table rather than raw pids. The example below
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
keeps a per-process sum of total bytes read::

Similarly, if you key a hist trigger on syscall id, for example to
|
|
|
|
|
gather and display a list of systemwide syscall hits, you can use
|
|
|
|
|
the special .syscall modifier to display the syscall names rather
|
|
|
|
|
than raw ids. The example below keeps a running total of syscall
|

counts for the system during the run::

The syscall counts above provide a rough overall picture of system
|
|
|
|
|
call activity on the system; we can see for example that the most
|
|
|
|
|
popular system call on this system was the 'sys_ioctl' system call.

|
|

|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
We can use 'compound' keys to refine that number and provide some
|
|
|
|
|
further insight as to which processes exactly contribute to the
|
|
|
|
|
overall ioctl count.

The command below keeps a hitcount for every unique combination of
|
|
|
|
|
system call id and pid - the end result is essentially a table
|
|
|
|
|
that keeps a per-pid sum of system call hits. The results are
|
|
|
|
|
sorted using the system call id as the primary key, and the
|
|
|
|
|
hitcount sum as the secondary key::

The above list does give us a breakdown of the ioctl syscall by
|
|
|
|
|
pid, but it also gives us quite a bit more than that, which we
|
|
|
|
|
don't really care about at the moment. Since we know the syscall
|
|
|
|
|
id for sys_ioctl (16, displayed next to the sys_ioctl name), we
|
|
|
|
|
can use that to filter out all the other syscalls::

The above output shows that 'compiz' and 'Xorg' are far and away
|
|
|
|
|
the heaviest ioctl callers (which might lead to questions about
|
|
|
|
|
whether they really need to be making all those calls and to
|
|
|
|
|
possible avenues for further investigation.)

The compound key examples used a key and a sum value (hitcount) to
|
|
|
|
|
sort the output, but we can just as easily use two keys instead.
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example where we use a compound key composed of the the
|
|
|
|
|
common_pid and size event fields. Sorting with pid as the primary
|
|
|
|
|
key and 'size' as the secondary key allows us to display an
|
|
|
|
|
ordered summary of the recvfrom sizes, with counts, received by
|
|
|
|
|
each process::

The above example also illustrates the fact that although a compound
|
|
|
|
|
key is treated as a single entity for hashing purposes, the sub-keys
|
|
|
|
|
it's composed of can be accessed independently.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The next example uses a string field as the hash key and
|
|
|
|
|
demonstrates how you can manually pause and continue a hist trigger.
|
|
|
|
|
In this example, we'll aggregate fork counts and don't expect a
|
|
|
|
|
large number of entries in the hash table, so we'll drop it to a

If we want to pause the hist trigger, we can simply append :pause to
|
|
|
|
|
the command that started the trigger. Notice that the trigger info
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00

To manually continue having the trigger aggregate events, append
|
|
|
|
|
:cont instead. Notice that the trigger info displays as [active]

The previous example showed how to start and stop a hist trigger by
|
|
|
|
|
appending 'pause' and 'continue' to the hist trigger command. A
|
|
|
|
|
hist trigger can also be started in a paused state by initially
|
|
|
|
|
starting the trigger with ':pause' appended. This allows you to
|
|
|
|
|
start the trigger only when you're ready to start collecting data
|
|
|
|
|
and not before. For example, you could start the trigger in a
|
|
|
|
|
paused state, then unpause it and do something you want to measure,
|
|
|
|
|
then pause the trigger again when done.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Of course, doing this manually can be difficult and error-prone, but
|
|
|
|
|
it is possible to automatically start and stop a hist trigger based
|
|
|
|
|
on some condition, via the enable_hist and disable_hist triggers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, suppose we wanted to take a look at the relative
|
|
|
|
|
weights in terms of skb length for each callpath that leads to a
|
2019-05-21 12:30:00 +00:00
|
|
|
netif_receive_skb event when downloading a decent-sized file using
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
wget.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
First we set up an initially paused stacktrace trigger on the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
netif_receive_skb event::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:key=stacktrace:vals=len:pause' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next, we set up an 'enable_hist' trigger on the sched_process_exec
|
|
|
|
|
event, with an 'if filename==/usr/bin/wget' filter. The effect of
|
|
|
|
|
this new trigger is that it will 'unpause' the hist trigger we just
|
|
|
|
|
set up on netif_receive_skb if and only if it sees a
|
|
|
|
|
sched_process_exec event with a filename of '/usr/bin/wget'. When
|
|
|
|
|
that happens, all netif_receive_skb events are aggregated into a
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
hash table keyed on stacktrace::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'enable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb if filename==/usr/bin/wget' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The aggregation continues until the netif_receive_skb is paused
|
|
|
|
|
again, which is what the following disable_hist event does by
|
|
|
|
|
creating a similar setup on the sched_process_exit event, using the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
filter 'comm==wget'::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'disable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb if comm==wget' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exit/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Whenever a process exits and the comm field of the disable_hist
|
|
|
|
|
trigger filter matches 'comm==wget', the netif_receive_skb hist
|
|
|
|
|
trigger is disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The overall effect is that netif_receive_skb events are aggregated
|
|
|
|
|
into the hash table for only the duration of the wget. Executing a
|
|
|
|
|
wget command and then listing the 'hist' file will display the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
output generated by the wget command::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|

The above shows all the netif_receive_skb callpaths and their total

The 'clear' hist trigger param can be used to clear the hash table.
|
|
|
|
|
Suppose we wanted to try another run of the previous example but
|
|
|
|
|
this time also wanted to see the complete list of events that went
|
|
|
|
|
into the histogram. In order to avoid having to set everything up
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
again, we can just clear the histogram first::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:key=stacktrace:vals=len:clear' >> \

|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Just to verify that it is in fact cleared, here's what we now see in
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
the hist file::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/hist

Since we want to see the detailed list of every netif_receive_skb
|
|
|
|
|
event occurring during the new run, which are in fact the same
|
|
|
|
|
events being aggregated into the hash table, we add some additional
|
|
|
|
|
'enable_event' events to the triggering sched_process_exec and
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
sched_process_exit events as such::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'enable_event:net:netif_receive_skb if filename==/usr/bin/wget' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'disable_event:net:netif_receive_skb if comm==wget' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exit/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you read the trigger files for the sched_process_exec and
|
|
|
|
|
sched_process_exit triggers, you should see two triggers for each:
|
|
|
|
|
one enabling/disabling the hist aggregation and the other
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
enabling/disabling the logging of events::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
enable_event:net:netif_receive_skb:unlimited if filename==/usr/bin/wget
|
|
|
|
|
enable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb:unlimited if filename==/usr/bin/wget
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exit/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
enable_event:net:netif_receive_skb:unlimited if comm==wget
|
|
|
|
|
disable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb:unlimited if comm==wget
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In other words, whenever either of the sched_process_exec or
|
|
|
|
|
sched_process_exit events is hit and matches 'wget', it enables or
|
|
|
|
|
disables both the histogram and the event log, and what you end up
|
|
|
|
|
with is a hash table and set of events just covering the specified
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
duration. Run the wget command again::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/patch-3.19.xz
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Displaying the 'hist' file should show something similar to what you
|
|
|
|
|
saw in the last run, but this time you should also see the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
individual events in the trace file::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00

The following example demonstrates how multiple hist triggers can be
|
|
|
|
|
attached to a given event. This capability can be useful for
|
|
|
|
|
creating a set of different summaries derived from the same set of
|
|
|
|
|
events, or for comparing the effects of different filters, among
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
other things::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len if len < 0' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len if len > 4096' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len if len == 256' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=len:vals=common_preempt_count' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The above set of commands create four triggers differing only in
|
|
|
|
|
their filters, along with a completely different though fairly
|
|
|
|
|
nonsensical trigger. Note that in order to append multiple hist
|
|
|
|
|
triggers to the same file, you should use the '>>' operator to
|
|
|
|
|
append them ('>' will also add the new hist trigger, but will remove
|
|
|
|
|
any existing hist triggers beforehand).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Displaying the contents of the 'hist' file for the event shows the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
contents of all five histograms::

Named triggers can be used to have triggers share a common set of
|
|
|
|
|
histogram data. This capability is mostly useful for combining the
|
|
|
|
|
output of events generated by tracepoints contained inside inline
|
|
|
|
|
functions, but names can be used in a hist trigger on any event.
|
|
|
|
|
For example, these two triggers when hit will update the same 'len'
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
field in the shared 'foo' histogram data::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:name=foo:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:name=foo:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_rx/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can see that they're updating common histogram data by reading
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
each event's hist files at the same time::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/hist;

And here's an example that shows how to combine histogram data from
|
|
|
|
|
any two events even if they don't share any 'compatible' fields
|
|
|
|
|
other than 'hitcount' and 'stacktrace'. These commands create a
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
couple of triggers named 'bar' using those fields::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:name=bar:key=stacktrace:val=hitcount' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_fork/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:name=bar:key=stacktrace:val=hitcount' > \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_rx/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And displaying the output of either shows some interesting if
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
somewhat confusing output::
|
2018-01-16 02:51:35 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_fork/hist

2.2 Inter-event hist triggers
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Inter-event hist triggers are hist triggers that combine values from
|
|
|
|
|
one or more other events and create a histogram using that data. Data
|
|
|
|
|
from an inter-event histogram can in turn become the source for
|
|
|
|
|
further combined histograms, thus providing a chain of related
|
|
|
|
|
histograms, which is important for some applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The most important example of an inter-event quantity that can be used
|
|
|
|
|
in this manner is latency, which is simply a difference in timestamps
|
|
|
|
|
between two events. Although latency is the most important
|
|
|
|
|
inter-event quantity, note that because the support is completely
|
|
|
|
|
general across the trace event subsystem, any event field can be used
|
|
|
|
|
in an inter-event quantity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An example of a histogram that combines data from other histograms
|
|
|
|
|
into a useful chain would be a 'wakeupswitch latency' histogram that
|
|
|
|
|
combines a 'wakeup latency' histogram and a 'switch latency'
|
|
|
|
|
histogram.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Normally, a hist trigger specification consists of a (possibly
|
|
|
|
|
compound) key along with one or more numeric values, which are
|
|
|
|
|
continually updated sums associated with that key. A histogram
|
|
|
|
|
specification in this case consists of individual key and value
|
|
|
|
|
specifications that refer to trace event fields associated with a
|
|
|
|
|
single event type.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The inter-event hist trigger extension allows fields from multiple
|
|
|
|
|
events to be referenced and combined into a multi-event histogram
|
|
|
|
|
specification. In support of this overall goal, a few enabling
|
|
|
|
|
features have been added to the hist trigger support:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- In order to compute an inter-event quantity, a value from one
|
|
|
|
|
event needs to saved and then referenced from another event. This
|
|
|
|
|
requires the introduction of support for histogram 'variables'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The computation of inter-event quantities and their combination
|
|
|
|
|
require some minimal amount of support for applying simple
|
|
|
|
|
expressions to variables (+ and -).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- A histogram consisting of inter-event quantities isn't logically a
|
|
|
|
|
histogram on either event (so having the 'hist' file for either
|
|
|
|
|
event host the histogram output doesn't really make sense). To
|
|
|
|
|
address the idea that the histogram is associated with a
|
|
|
|
|
combination of events, support is added allowing the creation of
|
|
|
|
|
'synthetic' events that are events derived from other events.
|
|
|
|
|
These synthetic events are full-fledged events just like any other
|
|
|
|
|
and can be used as such, as for instance to create the
|
|
|
|
|
'combination' histograms mentioned previously.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- A set of 'actions' can be associated with histogram entries -
|
|
|
|
|
these can be used to generate the previously mentioned synthetic
|
|
|
|
|
events, but can also be used for other purposes, such as for
|
|
|
|
|
example saving context when a 'max' latency has been hit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Trace events don't have a 'timestamp' associated with them, but
|
|
|
|
|
there is an implicit timestamp saved along with an event in the
|
|
|
|
|
underlying ftrace ring buffer. This timestamp is now exposed as a
|
|
|
|
|
a synthetic field named 'common_timestamp' which can be used in
|
|
|
|
|
histograms as if it were any other event field; it isn't an actual
|
|
|
|
|
field in the trace format but rather is a synthesized value that
|
|
|
|
|
nonetheless can be used as if it were an actual field. By default
|
|
|
|
|
it is in units of nanoseconds; appending '.usecs' to a
|
|
|
|
|
common_timestamp field changes the units to microseconds.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-01-16 02:52:08 +00:00
|
|
|
A note on inter-event timestamps: If common_timestamp is used in a
|
|
|
|
|
histogram, the trace buffer is automatically switched over to using
|
|
|
|
|
absolute timestamps and the "global" trace clock, in order to avoid
|
|
|
|
|
bogus timestamp differences with other clocks that aren't coherent
|
|
|
|
|
across CPUs. This can be overridden by specifying one of the other
|
|
|
|
|
trace clocks instead, using the "clock=XXX" hist trigger attribute,
|
|
|
|
|
where XXX is any of the clocks listed in the tracing/trace_clock
|
|
|
|
|
pseudo-file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These features are described in more detail in the following sections.

2.2.1 Histogram Variables
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Variables are simply named locations used for saving and retrieving
|
|
|
|
|
values between matching events. A 'matching' event is defined as an
|
|
|
|
|
event that has a matching key - if a variable is saved for a histogram
|
|
|
|
|
entry corresponding to that key, any subsequent event with a matching
|
|
|
|
|
key can access that variable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A variable's value is normally available to any subsequent event until
|
|
|
|
|
it is set to something else by a subsequent event. The one exception
|
|
|
|
|
to that rule is that any variable used in an expression is essentially
|
|
|
|
|
'read-once' - once it's used by an expression in a subsequent event,
|
|
|
|
|
it's reset to its 'unset' state, which means it can't be used again
|
|
|
|
|
unless it's set again. This ensures not only that an event doesn't
|
|
|
|
|
use an uninitialized variable in a calculation, but that that variable
|
|
|
|
|
is used only once and not for any unrelated subsequent match.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The basic syntax for saving a variable is to simply prefix a unique
|
|
|
|
|
variable name not corresponding to any keyword along with an '=' sign
|
|
|
|
|
to any event field.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Either keys or values can be saved and retrieved in this way. This
|
|
|
|
|
creates a variable named 'ts0' for a histogram entry with the key
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
'next_pid'::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:vals=$ts0:ts0=common_timestamp ... >> \
|
|
|
|
|
event/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The ts0 variable can be accessed by any subsequent event having the
|
|
|
|
|
same pid as 'next_pid'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Variable references are formed by prepending the variable name with
|
|
|
|
|
the '$' sign. Thus for example, the ts0 variable above would be
|
|
|
|
|
referenced as '$ts0' in expressions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because 'vals=' is used, the common_timestamp variable value above
|
|
|
|
|
will also be summed as a normal histogram value would (though for a
|
|
|
|
|
timestamp it makes little sense).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
The below shows that a key value can also be saved in the same way::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:timer_pid=common_pid:key=timer_pid ...' >> event/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a variable isn't a key variable or prefixed with 'vals=', the
|
|
|
|
|
associated event field will be saved in a variable but won't be summed
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
as a value::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-14 22:48:59 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:ts1=common_timestamp ...' >> event/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Multiple variables can be assigned at the same time. The below would
|
|
|
|
|
result in both ts0 and b being created as variables, with both
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
common_timestamp and field1 additionally being summed as values::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-14 22:48:59 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:vals=$ts0,$b:ts0=common_timestamp,b=field1 ...' >> \
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
event/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that variable assignments can appear either preceding or
|
|
|
|
|
following their use. The command below behaves identically to the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
command above::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-14 22:48:59 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts0=common_timestamp,b=field1:vals=$ts0,$b ...' >> \
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
event/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any number of variables not bound to a 'vals=' prefix can also be
|
|
|
|
|
assigned by simply separating them with colons. Below is the same
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
thing but without the values being summed in the histogram::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-14 22:48:59 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts0=common_timestamp:b=field1 ...' >> event/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Variables set as above can be referenced and used in expressions on
|
|
|
|
|
another event.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
For example, here's how a latency can be calculated::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-14 22:48:59 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio:ts0=common_timestamp ...' >> event1/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp-$ts0 ...' >> event2/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-10-13 01:30:57 +00:00
|
|
|
In the first line above, the event's timestamp is saved into the
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
variable ts0. In the next line, ts0 is subtracted from the second
|
|
|
|
|
event's timestamp to produce the latency, which is then assigned into
|
|
|
|
|
yet another variable, 'wakeup_lat'. The hist trigger below in turn
|
|
|
|
|
makes use of the wakeup_lat variable to compute a combined latency
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
using the same key and variable from yet another event::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-14 22:48:59 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:key=pid:wakeupswitch_lat=$wakeup_lat+$switchtime_lat ...' >> event3/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.2.2 Synthetic Events
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Synthetic events are user-defined events generated from hist trigger
|
|
|
|
|
variables or fields associated with one or more other events. Their
|
|
|
|
|
purpose is to provide a mechanism for displaying data spanning
|
|
|
|
|
multiple events consistent with the existing and already familiar
|
|
|
|
|
usage for normal events.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To define a synthetic event, the user writes a simple specification
|
|
|
|
|
consisting of the name of the new event along with one or more
|
|
|
|
|
variables and their types, which can be any valid field type,
|
|
|
|
|
separated by semicolons, to the tracing/synthetic_events file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For instance, the following creates a new event named 'wakeup_latency'
|
|
|
|
|
with 3 fields: lat, pid, and prio. Each of those fields is simply a
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
variable reference to a variable on another event::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'wakeup_latency \
|
|
|
|
|
u64 lat; \
|
|
|
|
|
pid_t pid; \
|
|
|
|
|
int prio' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reading the tracing/synthetic_events file lists all the currently
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
defined synthetic events, in this case the event defined above::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
|
|
|
|
|
wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An existing synthetic event definition can be removed by prepending
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
the command that defined it with a '!'::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo '!wakeup_latency u64 lat pid_t pid int prio' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
At this point, there isn't yet an actual 'wakeup_latency' event
|
2018-10-13 01:30:57 +00:00
|
|
|
instantiated in the event subsystem - for this to happen, a 'hist
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
trigger action' needs to be instantiated and bound to actual fields
|
2018-06-14 22:48:59 +00:00
|
|
|
and variables defined on other events (see Section 2.2.3 below on
|
|
|
|
|
how that is done using hist trigger 'onmatch' action). Once that is
|
|
|
|
|
done, the 'wakeup_latency' synthetic event instance is created.
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
A histogram can now be defined for the new synthetic event::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio,lat.log2:sort=pid,lat' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new event is created under the tracing/events/synthetic/ directory
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
and looks and behaves just like any other event::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# ls /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency
|
|
|
|
|
enable filter format hist id trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Like any other event, once a histogram is enabled for the event, the
|
|
|
|
|
output can be displayed by reading the event's 'hist' file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
2.2.3 Hist trigger 'handlers' and 'actions'
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------------------------------
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
A hist trigger 'action' is a function that's executed (in most cases
|
|
|
|
|
conditionally) whenever a histogram entry is added or updated.
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
When a histogram entry is added or updated, a hist trigger 'handler'
|
|
|
|
|
is what decides whether the corresponding action is actually invoked
|
|
|
|
|
or not.
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
Hist trigger handlers and actions are paired together in the general
|
|
|
|
|
form:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<handler>.<action>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To specify a handler.action pair for a given event, simply specify
|
|
|
|
|
that handler.action pair between colons in the hist trigger
|
|
|
|
|
specification.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In theory, any handler can be combined with any action, but in
|
|
|
|
|
practice, not every handler.action combination is currently supported;
|
|
|
|
|
if a given handler.action combination isn't supported, the hist
|
|
|
|
|
trigger will fail with -EINVAL;
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-05-21 12:30:00 +00:00
|
|
|
The default 'handler.action' if none is explicitly specified is as it
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
always has been, to simply update the set of values associated with an
|
|
|
|
|
entry. Some applications, however, may want to perform additional
|
|
|
|
|
actions at that point, such as generate another event, or compare and
|
|
|
|
|
save a maximum.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The supported handlers and actions are listed below, and each is
|
|
|
|
|
described in more detail in the following paragraphs, in the context
|
|
|
|
|
of descriptions of some common and useful handler.action combinations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The available handlers are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- onmatch(matching.event) - invoke action on any addition or update
|
|
|
|
|
- onmax(var) - invoke action if var exceeds current max
|
2019-02-13 23:42:49 +00:00
|
|
|
- onchange(var) - invoke action if var changes
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The available actions are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-02-13 23:42:50 +00:00
|
|
|
- trace(<synthetic_event_name>,param list) - generate synthetic event
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
- save(field,...) - save current event fields
|
2019-02-13 23:42:47 +00:00
|
|
|
- snapshot() - snapshot the trace buffer
|
2019-02-13 23:42:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following commonly-used handler.action pairs are available:
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2019-02-13 23:42:50 +00:00
|
|
|
- onmatch(matching.event).trace(<synthetic_event_name>,param list)
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2019-02-13 23:42:50 +00:00
|
|
|
The 'onmatch(matching.event).trace(<synthetic_event_name>,param
|
|
|
|
|
list)' hist trigger action is invoked whenever an event matches
|
|
|
|
|
and the histogram entry would be added or updated. It causes the
|
|
|
|
|
named synthetic event to be generated with the values given in the
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
'param list'. The result is the generation of a synthetic event
|
|
|
|
|
that consists of the values contained in those variables at the
|
2019-02-13 23:42:50 +00:00
|
|
|
time the invoking event was hit. For example, if the synthetic
|
|
|
|
|
event name is 'wakeup_latency', a wakeup_latency event is
|
|
|
|
|
generated using onmatch(event).trace(wakeup_latency,arg1,arg2).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is also an equivalent alternative form available for
|
|
|
|
|
generating synthetic events. In this form, the synthetic event
|
|
|
|
|
name is used as if it were a function name. For example, using
|
|
|
|
|
the 'wakeup_latency' synthetic event name again, the
|
|
|
|
|
wakeup_latency event would be generated by invoking it as if it
|
|
|
|
|
were a function call, with the event field values passed in as
|
|
|
|
|
arguments: onmatch(event).wakeup_latency(arg1,arg2). The syntax
|
|
|
|
|
for this form is:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
onmatch(matching.event).<synthetic_event_name>(param list)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In either case, the 'param list' consists of one or more
|
|
|
|
|
parameters which may be either variables or fields defined on
|
|
|
|
|
either the 'matching.event' or the target event. The variables or
|
|
|
|
|
fields specified in the param list may be either fully-qualified
|
|
|
|
|
or unqualified. If a variable is specified as unqualified, it
|
|
|
|
|
must be unique between the two events. A field name used as a
|
|
|
|
|
param can be unqualified if it refers to the target event, but
|
|
|
|
|
must be fully qualified if it refers to the matching event. A
|
|
|
|
|
fully-qualified name is of the form 'system.event_name.$var_name'
|
|
|
|
|
or 'system.event_name.field'.
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 'matching.event' specification is simply the fully qualified
|
|
|
|
|
event name of the event that matches the target event for the
|
2019-05-03 14:35:37 +00:00
|
|
|
onmatch() functionality, in the form 'system.event_name'. Histogram
|
|
|
|
|
keys of both events are compared to find if events match. In case
|
|
|
|
|
multiple histogram keys are used, they all must match in the specified
|
|
|
|
|
order.
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finally, the number and type of variables/fields in the 'param
|
|
|
|
|
list' must match the number and types of the fields in the
|
|
|
|
|
synthetic event being generated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As an example the below defines a simple synthetic event and uses
|
|
|
|
|
a variable defined on the sched_wakeup_new event as a parameter
|
|
|
|
|
when invoking the synthetic event. Here we define the synthetic
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
event::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'wakeup_new_test pid_t pid' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
|
|
|
|
|
wakeup_new_test pid_t pid
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following hist trigger both defines the missing testpid
|
|
|
|
|
variable and specifies an onmatch() action that generates a
|
|
|
|
|
wakeup_new_test synthetic event whenever a sched_wakeup_new event
|
|
|
|
|
occurs, which because of the 'if comm == "cyclictest"' filter only
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
happens when the executable is cyclictest::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=$testpid:testpid=pid:onmatch(sched.sched_wakeup_new).\
|
|
|
|
|
wakeup_new_test($testpid) if comm=="cyclictest"' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup_new/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2019-02-13 23:42:50 +00:00
|
|
|
Or, equivalently, using the 'trace' keyword syntax:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=$testpid:testpid=pid:onmatch(sched.sched_wakeup_new).\
|
|
|
|
|
trace(wakeup_new_test,$testpid) if comm=="cyclictest"' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup_new/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
Creating and displaying a histogram based on those events is now
|
|
|
|
|
just a matter of using the fields and new synthetic event in the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
tracing/events/synthetic directory, as usual::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:sort=pid' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_new_test/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Running 'cyclictest' should cause wakeup_new events to generate
|
|
|
|
|
wakeup_new_test synthetic events which should result in histogram
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
output in the wakeup_new_test event's hist file::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_new_test/hist
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A more typical usage would be to use two events to calculate a
|
|
|
|
|
latency. The following example uses a set of hist triggers to
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
produce a 'wakeup_latency' histogram.
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
First, we define a 'wakeup_latency' synthetic event::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid; int prio' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/synthetic_events
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Next, we specify that whenever we see a sched_waking event for a
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
cyclictest thread, save the timestamp in a 'ts0' variable::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=$saved_pid:saved_pid=pid:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs \
|
|
|
|
|
if comm=="cyclictest"' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then, when the corresponding thread is actually scheduled onto the
|
2019-05-03 14:35:37 +00:00
|
|
|
CPU by a sched_switch event (saved_pid matches next_pid), calculate
|
|
|
|
|
the latency and use that along with another variable and an event field
|
|
|
|
|
to generate a wakeup_latency synthetic event::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:wakeup_lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:\
|
|
|
|
|
onmatch(sched.sched_waking).wakeup_latency($wakeup_lat,\
|
|
|
|
|
$saved_pid,next_prio) if next_comm=="cyclictest"' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We also need to create a histogram on the wakeup_latency synthetic
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
event in order to aggregate the generated synthetic event data::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=pid,prio,lat:sort=pid,lat' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency/trigger
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Finally, once we've run cyclictest to actually generate some
|
|
|
|
|
events, we can see the output by looking at the wakeup_latency
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
synthetic event's hist file::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/synthetic/wakeup_latency/hist
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- onmax(var).save(field,.. .)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 'onmax(var).save(field,...)' hist trigger action is invoked
|
|
|
|
|
whenever the value of 'var' associated with a histogram entry
|
|
|
|
|
exceeds the current maximum contained in that variable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The end result is that the trace event fields specified as the
|
|
|
|
|
onmax.save() params will be saved if 'var' exceeds the current
|
|
|
|
|
maximum for that hist trigger entry. This allows context from the
|
|
|
|
|
event that exhibited the new maximum to be saved for later
|
|
|
|
|
reference. When the histogram is displayed, additional fields
|
|
|
|
|
displaying the saved values will be printed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As an example the below defines a couple of hist triggers, one for
|
|
|
|
|
sched_waking and another for sched_switch, keyed on pid. Whenever
|
|
|
|
|
a sched_waking occurs, the timestamp is saved in the entry
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding to the current pid, and when the scheduler switches
|
|
|
|
|
back to that pid, the timestamp difference is calculated. If the
|
|
|
|
|
resulting latency, stored in wakeup_lat, exceeds the current
|
|
|
|
|
maximum latency, the values specified in the save() fields are
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
recorded::
|
2018-01-16 02:52:06 +00:00

- onmax(var).snapshot()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 'onmax(var).snapshot()' hist trigger action is invoked
|
|
|
|
|
whenever the value of 'var' associated with a histogram entry
|
|
|
|
|
exceeds the current maximum contained in that variable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The end result is that a global snapshot of the trace buffer will
|
|
|
|
|
be saved in the tracing/snapshot file if 'var' exceeds the current
|
|
|
|
|
maximum for any hist trigger entry.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that in this case the maximum is a global maximum for the
|
|
|
|
|
current trace instance, which is the maximum across all buckets of
|
|
|
|
|
the histogram. The key of the specific trace event that caused
|
|
|
|
|
the global maximum and the global maximum itself are displayed,
|
|
|
|
|
along with a message stating that a snapshot has been taken and
|
|
|
|
|
where to find it. The user can use the key information displayed
|
|
|
|
|
to locate the corresponding bucket in the histogram for even more
|
|
|
|
|
detail.

|
|
|
|
|
resulting latency, stored in wakeup_lat, exceeds the current
|
|
|
|
|
maximum latency, a snapshot is taken. As part of the setup, all
|
|
|
|
|
the scheduler events are also enabled, which are the events that
|
|
|
|
|
will show up in the snapshot when it is taken at some point:

In the above case, the event that triggered the global maximum has
|
|
|
|
|
the key with next_pid == 2103. If you look at the bucket that has
|
|
|
|
|
2103 as the key, you'll find the additional values save()'d along
|
|
|
|
|
with the local maximum for that bucket, which should be the same
|
|
|
|
|
as the global maximum (since that was the same value that
|
|
|
|
|
triggered the global snapshot).

- onchange(var).save(field,.. .)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 'onchange(var).save(field,...)' hist trigger action is invoked
|
|
|
|
|
whenever the value of 'var' associated with a histogram entry
|
|
|
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The end result is that the trace event fields specified as the
|
|
|
|
|
onchange.save() params will be saved if 'var' changes for that
|
|
|
|
|
hist trigger entry. This allows context from the event that
|
|
|
|
|
changed the value to be saved for later reference. When the
|
|
|
|
|
histogram is displayed, additional fields displaying the saved
|
|
|
|
|
values will be printed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- onchange(var).snapshot()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 'onchange(var).snapshot()' hist trigger action is invoked
|
|
|
|
|
whenever the value of 'var' associated with a histogram entry
|
|
|
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The end result is that a global snapshot of the trace buffer will
|
|
|
|
|
be saved in the tracing/snapshot file if 'var' changes for any
|
|
|
|
|
hist trigger entry.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that in this case the changed value is a global variable
|
2019-05-21 12:30:00 +00:00
|
|
|
associated with current trace instance. The key of the specific
|
2019-02-13 23:42:49 +00:00
|
|
|
trace event that caused the value to change and the global value
|
|
|
|
|
itself are displayed, along with a message stating that a snapshot
|
|
|
|
|
has been taken and where to find it. The user can use the key
|
|
|
|
|
information displayed to locate the corresponding bucket in the
|
|
|
|
|
histogram for even more detail.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As an example the below defines a hist trigger on the tcp_probe
|
|
|
|
|
event, keyed on dport. Whenever a tcp_probe event occurs, the
|
|
|
|
|
cwnd field is checked against the current value stored in the
|
|
|
|
|
$cwnd variable. If the value has changed, a snapshot is taken.
|
|
|
|
|
As part of the setup, all the scheduler and tcp events are also
|
|
|
|
|
enabled, which are the events that will show up in the snapshot
|
|
|
|
|
when it is taken at some point:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/enable
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tcp/enable
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=dport:cwnd=snd_cwnd: \
|
|
|
|
|
onchange($cwnd).save(snd_wnd,srtt,rcv_wnd): \
|
|
|
|
|
onchange($cwnd).snapshot()' >> \
|
|
|
|
|
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tcp/tcp_probe/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When the histogram is displayed, for each bucket the tracked value
|
|
|
|
|
and the saved values corresponding to that value are displayed
|
|
|
|
|
following the rest of the fields.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-05-21 12:30:00 +00:00
|
|
|
If a snapshot was taken, there is also a message indicating that,
|
2019-04-15 20:00:05 +00:00
|
|
|
along with the value and event that triggered the snapshot::
|
|

In the above case, the event that triggered the snapshot has the
|
|
|
|
|
key with dport == 80. If you look at the bucket that has 80 as
|
|
|
|
|
the key, you'll find the additional values save()'d along with the
|
|
|
|
|
changed value for that bucket, which should be the same as the
|
|
|
|
|
global changed value (since that was the same value that triggered
|
|
|
|
|
the global snapshot).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And finally, looking at the snapshot data should show at or near

2019-04-15 20:00:05 +00:00
|
|
|
the end the event that triggered the snapshot::

3. User space creating a trigger
|
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Writing into /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_marker writes into the ftrace
|
|
|
|
|
ring buffer. This can also act like an event, by writing into the trigger
|
|
|
|
|
file located in /sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/print/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Modifying cyclictest to write into the trace_marker file before it sleeps
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
and after it wakes up, something like this::
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
static void traceputs(char *str)
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
/* tracemark_fd is the trace_marker file descriptor */
|
|
|
|
|
if (tracemark_fd < 0)
|
|
|
|
|
return;
|
|
|
|
|
/* write the tracemark message */
|
|
|
|
|
write(tracemark_fd, str, strlen(str));
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
}
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
And later add something like::
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
traceputs("start");
|
|
|
|
|
clock_nanosleep(...);
|
|
|
|
|
traceputs("end");
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
We can make a histogram from this::
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'latency u64 lat' > synthetic_events
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs if buf == "start"' > events/ftrace/print/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:onmatch(ftrace.print).latency($lat) if buf == "end"' >> events/ftrace/print/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=lat,common_pid:sort=lat' > events/synthetic/latency/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The above created a synthetic event called "latency" and two histograms
|
|
|
|
|
against the trace_marker, one gets triggered when "start" is written into the
|
|
|
|
|
trace_marker file and the other when "end" is written. If the pids match, then
|
|
|
|
|
it will call the "latency" synthetic event with the calculated latency as its
|
|
|
|
|
parameter. Finally, a histogram is added to the latency synthetic event to
|
|
|
|
|
record the calculated latency along with the pid.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
Now running cyclictest with::
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# ./cyclictest -p80 -d0 -i250 -n -a -t --tracemark -b 1000
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-p80 : run threads at priority 80
|
|
|
|
|
-d0 : have all threads run at the same interval
|
|
|
|
|
-i250 : start the interval at 250 microseconds (all threads will do this)
|
|
|
|
|
-n : sleep with nanosleep
|
|
|
|
|
-a : affine all threads to a separate CPU
|
|
|
|
|
-t : one thread per available CPU
|
|
|
|
|
--tracemark : enable trace mark writing
|
|
|
|
|
-b 1000 : stop if any latency is greater than 1000 microseconds
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note, the -b 1000 is used just to make --tracemark available.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
Then we can see the histogram created by this with::
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Note, the writes are around the sleep, so ideally they will all be of 250
|
|
|
|
|
microseconds. If you are wondering how there are several that are under
|
|
|
|
|
250 microseconds, that is because the way cyclictest works, is if one
|
|
|
|
|
iteration comes in late, the next one will set the timer to wake up less that
|
|
|
|
|
250. That is, if an iteration came in 50 microseconds late, the next wake up
|
|
|
|
|
will be at 200 microseconds.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But this could easily be done in userspace. To make this even more
|
|
|
|
|
interesting, we can mix the histogram between events that happened in the
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
kernel with trace_marker::
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'latency u64 lat' > synthetic_events
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=pid:ts0=common_timestamp.usecs' > events/sched/sched_waking/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:lat=common_timestamp.usecs-$ts0:onmatch(sched.sched_waking).latency($lat) if buf == "end"' > events/ftrace/print/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
# echo 'hist:keys=lat,common_pid:sort=lat' > events/synthetic/latency/trigger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The difference this time is that instead of using the trace_marker to start
|
|
|
|
|
the latency, the sched_waking event is used, matching the common_pid for the
|
|
|
|
|
trace_marker write with the pid that is being woken by sched_waking.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
After running cyclictest again with the same parameters, we now have::
|
2018-05-11 19:41:24 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# cat events/synthetic/latency/hist
|
2018-06-26 09:49:11 +00:00
|
|
|
# event histogram
|
|
|
|
|
#
|
|
|
|
|
# trigger info: hist:keys=lat,common_pid:vals=hitcount:sort=lat:size=2048 [active]
|

This doesn't tell us any information about how late cyclictest may have
|
|

woken up, but it does show us a nice histogram of how long it took from
|
|
|
|
|
the time that cyclictest was woken to the time it made it into user space.
