However, +it turned out to be a very useful model for implementing more +complicated driver APIs where each driver implements only a subset of +a larger API.</para> + + <para>The MPEG encoding API was the driving force behind +designing and implementing this extended control mechanism: the MPEG +standard is quite large and the currently supported hardware MPEG +encoders each only implement a subset of this standard. Further more, +many parameters relating to how the video is encoded into an MPEG +stream are specific to the MPEG encoding chip since the MPEG standard +only defines the format of the resulting MPEG stream, not how the +video is actually encoded into that format.</para> + + <para>Unfortunately, the original control API lacked some +features needed for these new uses and so it was extended into the +(not terribly originally named) extended control API.</para> + + <para>Even though the MPEG encoding API was the first effort +to use the Extended Control API, nowadays there are also other classes +of Extended Controls, such as Camera Controls and FM Transmitter Controls. +The Extended Controls API as well as all Extended Controls classes are +described in the following text.</para> + </section> + + <section> + <title>The Extended Control API</title> + + <para>Three new ioctls are available: &VIDIOC-G-EXT-CTRLS;, +&VIDIOC-S-EXT-CTRLS; and &VIDIOC-TRY-EXT-CTRLS;. These ioctls act on +arrays of controls (as opposed to the &VIDIOC-G-CTRL; and +&VIDIOC-S-CTRL; ioctls that act on a single control). This is needed +since it is often required to atomically change several controls at +once.</para> + + <para>Each of the new ioctls expects a pointer to a +&v4l2-ext-controls;. This structure contains a pointer to the control +array, a count of the number of controls in that array and a control +class. Control classes are used to group similar controls into a +single class. For example, control class +<constant>V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_USER</constant> contains all user controls +(&ie; all controls that can also be set using the old +<constant>VIDIOC_S_CTRL</constant> ioctl). Control class +<constant>V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG</constant> contains all controls +relating to MPEG encoding, etc.</para> + + <para>All controls in the control array must belong to the +specified control class. An error is returned if this is not the +case.</para> + + <para>It is also possible to use an empty control array (count +== 0) to check whether the specified control class is +supported.</para> + + <para>The control array is a &v4l2-ext-control; array. The +<structname>v4l2_ext_control</structname> structure is very similar to +&v4l2-control;, except for the fact that it also allows for 64-bit +values and pointers to be passed.</para> + + <para>It is important to realize that due to the flexibility of +controls it is necessary to check whether the control you want to set +actually is supported in the driver and what the valid range of values +is. So use the &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL; and &VIDIOC-QUERYMENU; ioctls to +check this. Also note that it is possible that some of the menu +indices in a control of type <constant>V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_MENU</constant> +may not be supported (<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYMENU</constant> will +return an error). A good example is the list of supported MPEG audio +bitrates.

The remaining 28 bits form the control ID, of +which the most significant 12 bits define the control class and the +least significant 16 bits identify the control within the control +class. It is guaranteed that these last 16 bits are always non-zero +for controls. The range of 0x1000 and up are reserved for +driver-specific controls. The macro +<constant>V4L2_CTRL_ID2CLASS(id)</constant> returns the control class +ID based on a control ID.</para> + + <para>If the driver does not support extended controls, then +<constant>VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL</constant> will fail when used in +combination with <constant>V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL</constant>.

Sparse arrays are handled +reasonably well. Only single-page allocations are made, so memory +allocation failures should be relatively rare. The down sides are that the +arrays cannot be indexed directly, individual object size cannot exceed the +system page size, and putting data into a flexible array requires a copy +operation. It's also worth noting that flexible arrays do no internal +locking at all; if concurrent access to an array is possible, then the +caller must arrange for appropriate mutual exclusion. + +The creation of a flexible array is done with: + + #include <linux/flex_array.h> + + struct flex_array *flex_array_alloc(int element_size, + unsigned int total, + gfp_t flags); + +The individual object size is provided by element_size, while total is the +maximum number of objects which can be stored in the array. The flags +argument is passed directly to the internal memory allocation calls. With +the current code, using flags to ask for high memory is likely to lead to +notably unpleasant side effects. + +Storing data into a flexible array is accomplished with a call to: + + int flex_array_put(struct flex_array *array, unsigned int element_nr, + void *src, gfp_t flags); + +This call will copy the data from src into the array, in the position +indicated by element_nr (which must be less than the maximum specified when +the array was created). If any memory allocations must be performed, flags +will be used. The return value is zero on success, a negative error code +otherwise. + +There might possibly be a need to store data into a flexible array while +running in some sort of atomic context; in this situation, sleeping in the +memory allocator would be a bad thing. That can be avoided by using +GFP_ATOMIC for the flags value, but, often, there is a better way. The +trick is to ensure that any needed memory allocations are done before +entering atomic context, using: + + int flex_array_prealloc(struct flex_array *array, unsigned int start, + unsigned int end, gfp_t flags); + +This function will ensure that memory for the elements indexed in the range +defined by start and end has been allocated. Thereafter, a +flex_array_put() call on an element in that range is guaranteed not to +block. + +Getting data back out of the array is done with: + + void *flex_array_get(struct flex_array *fa, unsigned int element_nr); + +The return value is a pointer to the data element, or NULL if that +particular element has never been allocated. + +Note that it is possible to get back a valid pointer for an element which +has never been stored in the array. Memory for array elements is allocated +one page at a time; a single allocation could provide memory for several +adjacent elements. The flexible array code does not know if a specific +element has been written; it only knows if the associated memory is +present. So a flex_array_get() call on an element which was never stored +in the array has the potential to return a pointer to random data. If the +caller does not have a separate way to know which elements were actually +stored, it might be wise, at least, to add GFP_ZERO to the flags argument +to ensure that all elements are zeroed. + +There is no way to remove a single element from the array. It is possible, +though, to remove all elements with a call to: + + void flex_array_free_parts(struct flex_array *array); + +This call frees all elements, but leaves the array itself in place. +Freeing the entire array is done with: + + void flex_array_free(struct flex_array *array); + +As of this writing, there are no users of flexible arrays in the mainline +kernel.

The Integrity +Measurement Architecture (IMA) and Linux Integrity Module interface +are examples of such solutions. + +To get trust in the initial kernel without using Intel TXT, a +static root of trust must be used. This bases trust in BIOS +starting at system reset and requires measurement of all code +executed between system reset through the completion of the kernel +boot as well as data objects used by that code. In the case of a +Linux kernel, this means all of BIOS, any option ROMs, the +bootloader and the boot config. In practice, this is a lot of +code/data, much of which is subject to change from boot to boot +(e.g. changing NICs may change option ROMs). Without reference +hashes, these measurement changes are difficult to assess or +confirm as benign. This process also does not provide DMA +protection, memory configuration/alias checks and locks, crash +protection, or policy support. + +By using the hardware-based root of trust that Intel TXT provides, +many of these issues can be mitigated. Specifically: many +pre-launch components can be removed from the trust chain, DMA +protection is provided to all launched components, a large number +of platform configuration checks are performed and values locked, +protection is provided for any data in the event of an improper +shutdown, and there is support for policy-based execution/verification. +This provides a more stable measurement and a higher assurance of +system configuration and initial state than would be otherwise +possible. Since the tboot project is open source, source code for +almost all parts of the trust chain is available (excepting SMM and +Intel-provided firmware). + +How Does it Work? +================= + +o Tboot is an executable that is launched by the bootloader as + the "kernel" (the binary the bootloader executes). +o It performs all of the work necessary to determine if the + platform supports Intel TXT and, if so, executes the GETSEC[SENTER] + processor instruction that initiates the dynamic root of trust. + - If tboot determines that the system does not support Intel TXT + or is not configured correctly (e.g. the SINIT AC Module was + incorrect), it will directly launch the kernel with no changes + to any state. + - Tboot will output various information about its progress to the + terminal, serial port, and/or an in-memory log; the output + locations can be configured with a command line switch. +o The GETSEC[SENTER] instruction will return control to tboot and + tboot then verifies certain aspects of the environment (e.g. TPM NV + lock, e820 table does not have invalid entries, etc.). +o It will wake the APs from the special sleep state the GETSEC[SENTER] + instruction had put them in and place them into a wait-for-SIPI + state. + - Because the processors will not respond to an INIT or SIPI when + in the TXT environment, it is necessary to create a small VT-x + guest for the APs. When they run in this guest, they will + simply wait for the INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence, which will cause + VMEXITs, and then disable VT and jump to the SIPI vector. This + approach seemed like a better choice than having to insert + special code into the kernel's MP wakeup sequence. +o Tboot then applies an (optional) user-defined launch policy to + verify the kernel and initrd. + - This policy is rooted in TPM NV and is described in the tboot + project. The tboot project also contains code for tools to + create and provision the policy. + - Policies are completely under user control and if not present + then any kernel will be launched. + - Policy action is flexible and can include halting on failures + or simply logging them and continuing. +o Tboot adjusts the e820 table provided by the bootloader to reserve + its own location in memory as well as to reserve certain other + TXT-related regions. +o As part of it's launch, tboot DMA protects all of RAM (using the + VT-d PMRs). Thus, the kernel must be booted with 'intel_iommu=on' + in order to remove this blanket protection and use VT-d's + page-level protection. +o Tboot will populate a shared page with some data about itself and + pass this to the Linux kernel as it transfers control. + - The location of the shared page is passed via the boot_params + struct as a physical address. +o The kernel will look for the tboot shared page address and, if it + exists, map it. +o As one of the checks/protections provided by TXT, it makes a copy + of the VT-d DMARs in a DMA-protected region of memory and verifies + them for correctness. The VT-d code will detect if the kernel was + launched with tboot and use this copy instead of the one in the + ACPI table. +o At this point, tboot and TXT are out of the picture until a + shutdown (S<n>) +o In order to put a system into any of the sleep states after a TXT + launch, TXT must first be exited. This is to prevent attacks that + attempt to crash the system to gain control on reboot and steal + data left in memory. + - The kernel will perform all of its sleep preparation and + populate the shared page with the ACPI data needed to put the + platform in the desired sleep state. + - Then the kernel jumps into tboot via the vector specified in the + shared page. + - Tboot will clean up the environment and disable TXT, then use the + kernel-provided ACPI information to actually place the platform + into the desired sleep state. + - In the case of S3, tboot will also register itself as the resume + vector. This is necessary because it must re-establish the + measured environment upon resume. Once the TXT environment + has been restored, it will restore the TPM PCRs and then + transfer control back to the kernel's S3 resume vector. + In order to preserve system integrity across S3, the kernel + provides tboot with a set of memory ranges (kernel + code/data/bss, S3 resume code, and AP trampoline) that tboot + will calculate a MAC (message authentication code) over and then + seal with the TPM. On resume and once the measured environment + has been re-established, tboot will re-calculate the MAC and + verify it against the sealed value. Tboot's policy determines + what happens if the verification fails. + +That's pretty much it for TXT support. + + +Configuring the System: +====================== + +This code works with 32bit, 32bit PAE, and 64bit (x86_64) kernels. + +In BIOS, the user must enable: TPM, TXT, VT-x, VT-d. Not all BIOSes +allow these to be individually enabled/disabled and the screens in +which to find them are BIOS-specific. + +grub.conf needs to be modified as follows: + title Linux 2.6.29-tip w/ tboot + root (hd0,0) + kernel /tboot.gz logging=serial,vga,memory + module /vmlinuz-2.6.29-tip intel_iommu=on ro + root=LABEL=/ rhgb console=ttyS0,115200 3 + module /initrd-2.6.29-tip.img + module /Q35_SINIT_17.BIN + +The kernel option for enabling Intel TXT support is found under the +Security top-level menu and is called "Enable Intel(R) Trusted +Execution Technology (TXT)".

A KVM_CREATE_VM ioctl on this +handle will create a VM file descripror which can be used to issue VM +ioctls. A KVM_CREATE_VCPU ioctl on a VM fd will create a virtual cpu +and return a file descriptor pointing to it. Finally, ioctls on a vcpu +fd can be used to control the vcpu, including the important task of +actually running guest code. + +In general file descriptors can be migrated among processes by means +of fork() and the SCM_RIGHTS facility of unix domain socket. These +kinds of tricks are explicitly not supported by kvm. While they will +not cause harm to the host, their actual behavior is not guaranteed by +the API. The only supported use is one virtual machine per process, +and one vcpu per thread. + +3. Extensions + +As of Linux 2.6.22, the KVM ABI has been stabilized: no backward +incompatible change are allowed. However, there is an extension +facility that allows backward-compatible extensions to the API to be +queried and used. + +The extension mechanism is not based on on the Linux version number. +Instead, kvm defines extension identifiers and a facility to query +whether a particular extension identifier is available. If it is, a +set of ioctls is available for application use. + +4. API description + +This section describes ioctls that can be used to control kvm guests. +For each ioctl, the following information is provided along with a +description: + + Capability: which KVM extension provides this ioctl. Can be 'basic', + which means that is will be provided by any kernel that supports + API version 12 (see section 4.1), or a KVM_CAP_xyz constant, which + means availability needs to be checked with KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION + (see section 4.4). + + Architectures: which instruction set architectures provide this ioctl. + x86 includes both i386 and x86_64. + + Type: system, vm, or vcpu. + + Parameters: what parameters are accepted by the ioctl. + + Returns: the return value. General error numbers (EBADF, ENOMEM, EINVAL) + are not detailed, but errors with specific meanings are. + +4.1 KVM_GET_API_VERSION + +Capability: basic +Architectures: all +Type: system ioctl +Parameters: none +Returns: the constant KVM_API_VERSION (=12) + +This identifies the API version as the stable kvm API. It is not +expected that this number will change. However, Linux 2.6.20 and +2.6.21 report earlier versions; these are not documented and not +supported. Applications should refuse to run if KVM_GET_API_VERSION +returns a value other than 12. If this check passes, all ioctls +described as 'basic' will be available. + +4.2 KVM_CREATE_VM + +Capability: basic +Architectures: all +Type: system ioctl +Parameters: none +Returns: a VM fd that can be used to control the new virtual machine. + +The new VM has no virtual cpus and no memory. An mmap() of a VM fd +will access the virtual machine's physical address space; offset zero +corresponds to guest physical address zero. Use of mmap() on a VM fd +is discouraged if userspace memory allocation (KVM_CAP_USER_MEMORY) is +available. + +4.3 KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST + +Capability: basic +Architectures: x86 +Type: system +Parameters: struct kvm_msr_list (in/out) +Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error +Errors: + E2BIG: the msr index list is to be to fit in the array specified by + the user. + +struct kvm_msr_list { + __u32 nmsrs; /* number of msrs in entries */ + __u32 indices[0]; +}; + +This ioctl returns the guest msrs that are supported. The list varies +by kvm version and host processor, but does not change otherwise. The +user fills in the size of the indices array in nmsrs, and in return +kvm adjusts nmsrs to reflect the actual number of msrs and fills in +the indices array with their numbers. + +4.4 KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION + +Capability: basic +Architectures: all +Type: system ioctl +Parameters: extension identifier (KVM_CAP_*) +Returns: 0 if unsupported; 1 (or some other positive integer) if supported + +The API allows the application to query about extensions to the core +kvm API. Userspace passes an extension identifier (an integer) and +receives an integer that describes the extension availability. +Generally 0 means no and 1 means yes, but some extensions may report +additional information in the integer return value. + +4.5 KVM_GET_VCPU_MMAP_SIZE + +Capability: basic +Architectures: all +Type: system ioctl +Parameters: none +Returns: size of vcpu mmap area, in bytes + +The KVM_RUN ioctl (cf.) communicates with userspace via a shared +memory region.

When changing an existing slot, it may be moved in the guest +physical memory space, or its flags may be modified. It may not be +resized. Slots may not overlap. + +The flags field supports just one flag, KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES, which +instructs kvm to keep track of writes to memory within the slot. See +the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl. + +It is recommended to use the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION ioctl instead +of this API, if available. This newer API allows placing guest memory +at specified locations in the host address space, yielding better +control and easy access. + +4.6 KVM_CREATE_VCPU + +Capability: basic +Architectures: all +Type: vm ioctl +Parameters: vcpu id (apic id on x86) +Returns: vcpu fd on success, -1 on error + +This API adds a vcpu to a virtual machine.

Bit 0 is the first page in the +memory slot. Ensure the entire structure is cleared to avoid padding +issues. + +4.8 KVM_SET_MEMORY_ALIAS + +Capability: basic +Architectures: x86 +Type: vm ioctl +Parameters: struct kvm_memory_alias (in) +Returns: 0 (success), -1 (error) + +struct kvm_memory_alias { + __u32 slot; /* this has a different namespace than memory slots */ + __u32 flags; + __u64 guest_phys_addr; + __u64 memory_size; + __u64 target_phys_addr; +}; + +Defines a guest physical address space region as an alias to another +region. Useful for aliased address, for example the VGA low memory +window.

The event +triggered is mm_page_alloc_zone_locked for each page allocated with the +event indicating whether it is for a percpu_refill or not. + +When the per-CPU list is too full, a number of pages are freed, each one +which triggers a mm_page_pcpu_drain event. + +The individual nature of the events are so that pages can be tracked +between allocation and freeing.

Large amounts of PCP +refills and drains could imply an imbalance between CPUs where too much work +is being concentrated in one place. It could also indicate that the per-CPU +lists should be a larger size. Finally, large amounts of refills on one CPU +and drains on another could be a factor in causing large amounts of cache +line bounces due to writes between CPUs and worth investigating if pages +can be allocated and freed on the same CPU through some algorithm change. + +5.

Defining an event-enabled tracepoint ======================================= See The example provided in samples/trace_events +4. Event formats +================ + +Each trace event has a 'format' file associated with it that contains +a description of each field in a logged event. This information can +be used to parse the binary trace stream, and is also the place to +find the field names that can be used in event filters (see section 5). + +It also displays the format string that will be used to print the +event in text mode, along with the event name and ID used for +profiling. + +Every event has a set of 'common' fields associated with it; these are +the fields prefixed with 'common_'. The other fields vary between +events and correspond to the fields defined in the TRACE_EVENT +definition for that event. + +Each field in the format has the form: + + field:field-type field-name; offset:N; size:N; + +where offset is the offset of the field in the trace record and size +is the size of the data item, in bytes. + +For example, here's the information displayed for the 'sched_wakeup' +event: + +# cat /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup/format + +name: sched_wakeup +ID: 60 +format: + field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; + field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; + field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; + field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; + field:int common_tgid; offset:8; size:4; + + field:char comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16; + field:pid_t pid; offset:28; size:4; + field:int prio; offset:32; size:4; + field:int success; offset:36; size:4; + field:int cpu; offset:40; size:4; + +print fmt: "task %s:%d [%d] success=%d [%03d]", REC->comm, REC->pid, + REC->prio, REC->success, REC->cpu + +This event contains 10 fields, the first 5 common and the remaining 5 +event-specific. All the fields for this event are numeric, except for +'comm' which is a string, a distinction important for event filtering. + +5. Event filtering +================== + +Trace events can be filtered in the kernel by associating boolean +'filter expressions' with them. As soon as an event is logged into +the trace buffer, its fields are checked against the filter expression +associated with that event type. An event with field values that +'match' the filter will appear in the trace output, and an event whose +values don't match will be discarded. An event with no filter +associated with it matches everything, and is the default when no +filter has been set for an event. + +5.1 Expression syntax +--------------------- + +A filter expression consists of one or more 'predicates' that can be +combined using the logical operators '&&' and '||'. A predicate is +simply a clause that compares the value of a field contained within a +logged event with a constant value and returns either 0 or 1 depending +on whether the field value matched (1) or didn't match (0): + + field-name relational-operator value + +Parentheses can be used to provide arbitrary logical groupings and +double-quotes can be used to prevent the shell from interpreting +operators as shell metacharacters. + +The field-names available for use in filters can be found in the +'format' files for trace events (see section 4). + +The relational-operators depend on the type of the field being tested: + +The operators available for numeric fields are: + +==, !=, <, <=, >, >= + +And for string fields they are: + +==, != + +Currently, only exact string matches are supported. + +Currently, the maximum number of predicates in a filter is 16. + +5.2 Setting filters +------------------- + +A filter for an individual event is set by writing a filter expression +to the 'filter' file for the given event. + +For example: + +# cd /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup +# echo "common_preempt_count > 4" > filter + +A slightly more involved example: + +# cd /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_signal_send +# echo "((sig >= 10 && sig < 15) || sig == 17) && comm != bash" > filter + +If there is an error in the expression, you'll get an 'Invalid +argument' error when setting it, and the erroneous string along with +an error message can be seen by looking at the filter e.g.: + +# cd /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_signal_send +# echo "((sig >= 10 && sig < 15) || dsig == 17) && comm != bash" > filter +-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument +# cat filter +((sig >= 10 && sig < 15) || dsig == 17) && comm != bash +^ +parse_error: Field not found + +Currently the caret ('^') for an error always appears at the beginning of +the filter string; the error message should still be useful though +even without more accurate position info. + +5.3 Clearing filters +-------------------- + +To clear the filter for an event, write a '0' to the event's filter +file. + +To clear the filters for all events in a subsystem, write a '0' to the +subsystem's filter file. + +5.3 Subsystem filters +--------------------- + +For convenience, filters for every event in a subsystem can be set or +cleared as a group by writing a filter expression into the filter file +at the root of the subsytem. Note however, that if a filter for any +event within the subsystem lacks a field specified in the subsystem +filter, or if the filter can't be applied for any other reason, the +filter for that event will retain its previous setting. This can +result in an unintended mixture of filters which could lead to +confusing (to the user who might think different filters are in +effect) trace output.

We cannot help you in this regard, +sorry. Dig up some old documentation and/or find someone more familiar than +you to bang ideas off of. Typically, register usage (argument/scratch/etc...) +is a major issue at this point, especially in relation to the location of the +mcount call (before/after function prologue). You might also want to look at +how glibc has implemented the mcount function for your architecture. It might +be (semi-)relevant. + +The mcount function should check the function pointer ftrace_trace_function +to see if it is set to ftrace_stub. If it is, there is nothing for you to do, +so return immediately. If it isn't, then call that function in the same way +the mcount function normally calls __mcount_internal -- the first argument is +the "frompc" while the second argument is the "selfpc" (adjusted to remove the +size of the mcount call that is embedded in the function). + +For example, if the function foo() calls bar(), when the bar() function calls +mcount(), the arguments mcount() will pass to the tracer are: + "frompc" - the address bar() will use to return to foo() + "selfpc" - the address bar() (with _mcount() size adjustment) + +Also keep in mind that this mcount function will be called *a lot*, so +optimizing for the default case of no tracer will help the smooth running of +your system when tracing is disabled.

Here you will need to update the +mcount function to check ftrace graph function pointers, as well as implement +some functions to save (hijack) and restore the return address. + +The mcount function should check the function pointers ftrace_graph_return +(compare to ftrace_stub) and ftrace_graph_entry (compare to +ftrace_graph_entry_stub). If either of those are not set to the relevant stub +function, call the arch-specific function ftrace_graph_caller which in turn +calls the arch-specific function prepare_ftrace_return. Neither of these +function names are strictly required, but you should use them anyways to stay +consistent across the architecture ports -- easier to compare & contrast +things. + +The arguments to prepare_ftrace_return are slightly different than what are +passed to ftrace_trace_function. The second argument "selfpc" is the same, +but the first argument should be a pointer to the "frompc". Typically this is +located on the stack. This allows the function to hijack the return address +temporarily to have it point to the arch-specific function return_to_handler. +That function will simply call the common ftrace_return_to_handler function and +that will return the original return address with which, you can return to the +original call site. + +Here is the updated mcount pseudo code: +void mcount(void) +{ +... + if (ftrace_trace_function != ftrace_stub) + goto do_trace; + ++#ifdef CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER ++ extern void (*ftrace_graph_return)(...); ++ extern void (*ftrace_graph_entry)(...); ++ if (ftrace_graph_return != ftrace_stub || ++ ftrace_graph_entry != ftrace_graph_entry_stub) ++ ftrace_graph_caller(); ++#endif + + /* restore any bare state */ +... + +Here is the pseudo code for the new ftrace_graph_caller assembly function: +#ifdef CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER +void ftrace_graph_caller(void) +{ + /* save all state needed by the ABI */ + + unsigned long *frompc = &...; + unsigned long selfpc = <return address> - MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE; + prepare_ftrace_return(frompc, selfpc); + + /* restore all state needed by the ABI */ +} +#endif + +For information on how to implement prepare_ftrace_return(), simply look at +the x86 version.

To do this, +each page must be aligned in memory by 4 bytes. This will allow the 2 +least significant bits of the address to be used as flags. Since +they will always be zero for the address. To get the address, +simply mask out the flags. + + MASK = ~3 + + address & MASK + +Two flags will be kept by these two bits: + + HEADER - the page being pointed to is a head page + + UPDATE - the page being pointed to is being updated by a writer + and was or is about to be a head page. + + + reader page + | + v + +---+ + | |------+ + +---+ | + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |-H->| |--->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + + +The above pointer "-H->" would have the HEADER flag set. That is +the next page is the next page to be swapped out by the reader. +This pointer means the next page is the head page. + +When the tail page meets the head pointer, it will use cmpxchg to +change the pointer to the UPDATE state: + + + tail page + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |-H->| |--->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + + tail page + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |-U->| |--->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + +"-U->" represents a pointer in the UPDATE state. + +Any access to the reader will need to take some sort of lock to serialize +the readers. But the writers will never take a lock to write to the +ring buffer. This means we only need to worry about a single reader, +and writes only preempt in "stack" formation. + +When the reader tries to swap the page with the ring buffer, it +will also use cmpxchg. If the flag bit in the pointer to the +head page does not have the HEADER flag set, the compare will fail +and the reader will need to look for the new head page and try again. +Note, the flag UPDATE and HEADER are never set at the same time. + +The reader swaps the reader page as follows: + + +------+ + |reader| RING BUFFER + |page | + +------+ + +---+ +---+ +---+ + | |--->| |--->| | + | |<---| |<---| | + +---+ +---+ +---+ + ^ | ^ | + | +---------------+ | + +-----H-------------+ + +The reader sets the reader page next pointer as HEADER to the page after +the head page. + + + +------+ + |reader| RING BUFFER + |page |-------H-----------+ + +------+ v + | +---+ +---+ +---+ + | | |--->| |--->| | + | | |<---| |<---| |<-+ + | +---+ +---+ +---+ | + | ^ | ^ | | + | | +---------------+ | | + | +-----H-------------+ | + +--------------------------------------+ + +It does a cmpxchg with the pointer to the previous head page to make it +point to the reader page.

The page that the reader page points back to +by its previous pointer (the one that now points to the new head page) +never points back to the reader page. That is because the reader page is +not part of the ring buffer. Traversing the ring buffer via the next pointers +will always stay in the ring buffer. Traversing the ring buffer via the +prev pointers may not. + +Note, the way to determine a reader page is simply by examining the previous +pointer of the page.

The way this is done is that the writer +performs a cmpxchg to convert the pointer to the head page from the HEADER +flag to have the UPDATE flag set. Once this is done, the reader will +not be able to swap the head page from the buffer, nor will it be able to +move the head page, until the writer is finished with the move. + +This eliminates any races that the reader can have on the writer. The reader +must spin, and this is why the reader can not preempt the writer. + + tail page + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |-H->| |--->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + + tail page + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |-U->| |--->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + +The following page will be made into the new head page. + + tail page + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |-U->| |-H->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + +After the new head page has been set, we can set the old head page +pointer back to NORMAL. + + tail page + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |--->| |-H->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + +After the head page has been moved, the tail page may now move forward. + + tail page + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |--->| |-H->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + + +The above are the trivial updates. Now for the more complex scenarios. + + +As stated before, if enough writes preempt the first write, the +tail page may make it all the way around the buffer and meet the commit +page. At this time, we must start dropping writes (usually with some kind +of warning to the user). But what happens if the commit was still on the +reader page? The commit page is not part of the ring buffer. The tail page +must account for this. + + + reader page commit page + | | + v | + +---+ | + | |<----------+ + | | + | |------+ + +---+ | + | + v + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ +<---| |--->| |-H->| |--->| |---> +--->| |<---| |<---| |<---| |<--- + +---+ +---+ +---+ +---+ + ^ + | + tail page + +If the tail page were to simply push the head page forward, the commit when +leaving the reader page would not be pointing to the correct page. + +The solution to this is to test if the commit page is on the reader page +before pushing the head page. If it is, then it can be assumed that the +tail page wrapped the buffer, and we must drop new writes. + +This is not a race condition, because the commit page can only be moved +by the outter most writer (the writer that was preempted). +This means that the commit will not move while a writer is moving the +tail page. The reader can not swap the reader page if it is also being +used as the commit page. The reader can simply check that the commit +is off the reader page. Once the commit page leaves the reader page +it will never go back on it unless a reader does another swap with the +buffer page that is also the commit page. + + +Nested writes +------------- + +In the pushing forward of the tail page we must first push forward +the head page if the head page is the next page. If the head page +is not the next page, the tail page is simply updated with a cmpxchg. + +Only writers move the tail page. This must be done atomically to protect +against nested writers. + + temp_page = tail_page + next_page = temp_page->next + cmpxchg(tail_page, temp_page, next_page) + +The above will update the tail page if it is still pointing to the expected +page.

Introduction +=============== + +Tracepoints (see Documentation/trace/tracepoints.txt) can be used without +creating custom kernel modules to register probe functions using the event +tracing infrastructure. + +Simplistically, tracepoints will represent an important event that when can +be taken in conjunction with other tracepoints to build a "Big Picture" of +what is going on within the system. There are a large number of methods for +gathering and interpreting these events. Lacking any current Best Practises, +this document describes some of the methods that can be used. + +This document assumes that debugfs is mounted on /sys/kernel/debug and that +the appropriate tracing options have been configured into the kernel. It is +assumed that the PCL tool tools/perf has been installed and is in your path. + +2. Listing Available Events +=========================== + +2.1 Standard Utilities +---------------------- + +All possible events are visible from /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events. Simply +calling + + $ find /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events -type d + +will give a fair indication of the number of events available. + +2.2 PCL +------- + +Discovery and enumeration of all counters and events, including tracepoints +are available with the perf tool.

Enabling Events +================== + +2.1 System-Wide Event Enabling +------------------------------ + +See Documentation/trace/events.txt for a proper description on how events +can be enabled system-wide. A short example of enabling all events related +to page allocation would look something like + + $ for i in `find /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events -name "enable" | grep mm_`; do echo 1 > $i; done + +2.2 System-Wide Event Enabling with SystemTap +--------------------------------------------- + +In SystemTap, tracepoints are accessible using the kernel.trace() function +call.

Event Filtering +================== + +Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt covers in-depth how to filter events in +ftrace. Obviously using grep and awk of trace_pipe is an option as well +as any script reading trace_pipe. + +4. Analysing Event Variances with PCL +===================================== + +Any workload can exhibit variances between runs and it can be important +to know what the standard deviation in. By and large, this is left to the +performance analyst to do it by hand. In the event that the discrete event +occurrences are useful to the performance analyst, then perf can be used. + + $ perf stat --repeat 5 -e kmem:mm_page_alloc -e kmem:mm_page_free_direct + -e kmem:mm_pagevec_free ./hackbench 10 + Time: 0.890 + Time: 0.895 + Time: 0.915 + Time: 1.001 + Time: 0.899 + + Performance counter stats for './hackbench 10' (5 runs): + + 16630 kmem:mm_page_alloc ( +- 3.542% ) + 11486 kmem:mm_page_free_direct ( +- 4.771% ) + 4730 kmem:mm_pagevec_free ( +- 2.325% ) + + 0.982653002 seconds time elapsed ( +- 1.448% ) + +In the event that some higher-level event is required that depends on some +aggregation of discrete events, then a script would need to be developed. + +Using --repeat, it is also possible to view how events are fluctuating over +time on a system wide basis using -a and sleep. + + $ perf stat -e kmem:mm_page_alloc -e kmem:mm_page_free_direct \ + -e kmem:mm_pagevec_free \ + -a --repeat 10 \ + sleep 1 + Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1' (10 runs): + + 1066 kmem:mm_page_alloc ( +- 26.148% ) + 182 kmem:mm_page_free_direct ( +- 5.464% ) + 890 kmem:mm_pagevec_free ( +- 30.079% ) + + 1.002251757 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.005% ) + +5. Higher-Level Analysis with Helper Scripts +============================================ + +When events are enabled the events that are triggering can be read from +/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe in human-readable format although binary +options exist as well. By post-processing the output, further information can +be gathered on-line as appropriate. Examples of post-processing might include + + o Reading information from /proc for the PID that triggered the event + o Deriving a higher-level event from a series of lower-level events. + o Calculate latencies between two events + +Documentation/trace/postprocess/trace-pagealloc-postprocess.pl is an example +script that can read trace_pipe from STDIN or a copy of a trace. When used +on-line, it can be interrupted once to generate a report without existing +and twice to exit. + +Simplistically, the script just reads STDIN and counts up events but it +also can do more such as + + o Derive high-level events from many low-level events. If a number of pages + are freed to the main allocator from the per-CPU lists, it recognises + that as one per-CPU drain even though there is no specific tracepoint + for that event + o It can aggregate based on PID or individual process number + o In the event memory is getting externally fragmented, it reports + on whether the fragmentation event was severe or moderate. + o When receiving an event about a PID, it can record who the parent was so + that if large numbers of events are coming from very short-lived + processes, the parent process responsible for creating all the helpers + can be identified + +6. Lower-Level Analysis with PCL +================================ + +There may also be a requirement to identify what functions with a program +were generating events within the kernel. To begin this sort of analysis, the +data must be recorded. At the time of writing, this required root + + $ perf record -c 1 \ + -e kmem:mm_page_alloc -e kmem:mm_page_free_direct \ + -e kmem:mm_pagevec_free \ + ./hackbench 10 + Time: 0.894 + [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.733 MB perf.data (~32010 samples) ] + +Note the use of '-c 1' to set the event period to sample.

While most +modern devices allow relocation of such ranges, some "Legacy" VGA devices +implemented on PCI will typically have the same "hard-decoded" addresses as +they did on ISA. For more details see "PCI Bus Binding to IEEE Std 1275-1994 +Standard for Boot (Initialization Configuration) Firmware Revision 2.1" +Section 7, Legacy Devices. + +The Resource Access Control (RAC) module inside the X server [0] existed for +the legacy VGA arbitration task (besides other bus management tasks) when more +than one legacy device co-exists on the same machine. But the problem happens +when these devices are trying to be accessed by different userspace clients +(e.g. two server in parallel). Their address assignments conflict. Moreover, +ideally, being an userspace application, it is not the role of the the X +server to control bus resources. Therefore an arbitration scheme outside of +the X server is needed to control the sharing of these resources. This +document introduces the operation of the VGA arbiter implemented for Linux +kernel. + +---------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +I. Details and Theory of Operation + I.1 vgaarb + I.2 libpciaccess + I.3 xf86VGAArbiter (X server implementation) +II. Credits +III.References + + +I. Details and Theory of Operation +================================== + +I.1 vgaarb +---------- + +The vgaarb is a module of the Linux Kernel. When it is initially loaded, it +scans all PCI devices and adds the VGA ones inside the arbitration. The +arbiter then enables/disables the decoding on different devices of the VGA +legacy instructions. Device which do not want/need to use the arbiter may +explicitly tell it by calling vga_set_legacy_decoding(). + +The kernel exports a char device interface (/dev/vga_arbiter) to the clients, +which has the following semantics: + + open : open user instance of the arbiter. By default, it's attached to + the default VGA device of the system. + + close : close user instance. Release locks made by the user + + read : return a string indicating the status of the target like: + + "<card_ID>,decodes=<io_state>,owns=<io_state>,locks=<io_state> (ic,mc)" + + An IO state string is of the form {io,mem,io+mem,none}, mc and + ic are respectively mem and io lock counts (for debugging/ + diagnostic only). "decodes" indicate what the card currently + decodes, "owns" indicates what is currently enabled on it, and + "locks" indicates what is locked by this card. If the card is + unplugged, we get "invalid" then for card_ID and an -ENODEV + error is returned for any command until a new card is targeted. + + + write : write a command to the arbiter. List of commands: + + target <card_ID> : switch target to card <card_ID> (see below) + lock <io_state> : acquires locks on target ("none" is an invalid io_state) + trylock <io_state> : non-blocking acquire locks on target (returns EBUSY if + unsuccessful) + unlock <io_state> : release locks on target + unlock all : release all locks on target held by this user (not + implemented yet) + decodes <io_state> : set the legacy decoding attributes for the card + + poll : event if something changes on any card (not just the + target) + + card_ID is of the form "PCI:domain:bus:dev.fn". It can be set to "default" + to go back to the system default card (TODO: not implemented yet). Currently, + only PCI is supported as a prefix, but the userland API may support other bus + types in the future, even if the current kernel implementation doesn't. + +Note about locks: + +The driver keeps track of which user has which locks on which card. It +supports stacking, like the kernel one. This complexifies the implementation +a bit, but makes the arbiter more tolerant to user space problems and able +to properly cleanup in all cases when a process dies. +Currently, a max of 16 cards can have locks simultaneously issued from +user space for a given user (file descriptor instance) of the arbiter. + +In the case of devices hot-{un,}plugged, there is a hook - pci_notify() - to +notify them being added/removed in the system and automatically added/removed +in the arbiter. + +There's also a in-kernel API of the arbiter in the case of DRM, vgacon and +others which may use the arbiter. + + +I.2 libpciaccess +---------------- + +To use the vga arbiter char device it was implemented an API inside the +libpciaccess library. One fieldd was added to struct pci_device (each device +on the system): + + /* the type of resource decoded by the device */ + int vgaarb_rsrc; + +Besides it, in pci_system were added: + + int vgaarb_fd; + int vga_count; + struct pci_device *vga_target; + struct pci_device *vga_default_dev; + + +The vga_count is usually need to keep informed how many cards are being +arbitrated, so for instance if there's only one then it can totally escape the +scheme. + + +These functions below acquire VGA resources for the given card and mark those +resources as locked. If the resources requested are "normal" (and not legacy) +resources, the arbiter will first check whether the card is doing legacy +decoding for that type of resource. If yes, the lock is "converted" into a +legacy resource lock. The arbiter will first look for all VGA cards that +might conflict and disable their IOs and/or Memory access, including VGA +forwarding on P2P bridges if necessary, so that the requested resources can +be used. Then, the card is marked as locking these resources and the IO and/or +Memory access is enabled on the card (including VGA forwarding on parent +P2P bridges if any). In the case of vga_arb_lock(), the function will block +if some conflicting card is already locking one of the required resources (or +any resource on a different bus segment, since P2P bridges don't differentiate +VGA memory and IO afaik). If the card already owns the resources, the function +succeeds. vga_arb_trylock() will return (-EBUSY) instead of blocking. Nested +calls are supported (a per-resource counter is maintained). + + +Set the target device of this client. + int pci_device_vgaarb_set_target (struct pci_device *dev); + + +For instance, in x86 if two devices on the same bus want to lock different +resources, both will succeed (lock). If devices are in different buses and +trying to lock different resources, only the first who tried succeeds. + int pci_device_vgaarb_lock (void); + int pci_device_vgaarb_trylock (void); + +Unlock resources of device. + int pci_device_vgaarb_unlock (void); + +Indicates to the arbiter if the card decodes legacy VGA IOs, legacy VGA +Memory, both, or none. All cards default to both, the card driver (fbdev for +example) should tell the arbiter if it has disabled legacy decoding, so the +card can be left out of the arbitration process (and can be safe to take +interrupts at any time. + int pci_device_vgaarb_decodes (int new_vgaarb_rsrc); + +Connects to the arbiter device, allocates the struct + int pci_device_vgaarb_init (void); + +Close the connection + void pci_device_vgaarb_fini (void); + + +I.3 xf86VGAArbiter (X server implementation) +-------------------------------------------- + +(TODO) + +X server basically wraps all the functions that touch VGA registers somehow. + + +II.
