2024-03-20tools/rtla: Add -U/--user-load option to timerlatGravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 3-9/+95
The timerlat tracer provides an interface for any application to wait for the timerlat's periodic wakeup. Currently, rtla timerlat uses it to dispatch its user-space workload (-u option). But as the tracer interface is generic, rtla timerlat can also be used to monitor any workload that uses it. For example, a user might place their own workload to wait on the tracer interface, and monitor the results with rtla timerlat. Add the -U option to rtla timerlat top and hist. With this option, rtla timerlat will not dispatch its workload but only setting up the system, waiting for a user to dispatch its workload. The sample code in this patch is an example of python application that loops in the timerlat tracer fd. To use it, dispatch: # rtla timerlat -U In a terminal, then run the python program on another terminal, specifying the CPU to run it. For example, setting on CPU 1: #./timerlat_load.py 1 Then rtla timerlat will start printing the statistics of the ./timerlat_load.py app. An interesting point is that the "Ret user Timer Latency" value is the overall response time of the load. The sample load does a memory copy to exemplify that. The stop tracing options on rtla timerlat works in this setup as well, including auto analysis.

2024-03-20tools/rtla: Use tools/build makefiles to build rtlaGravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 7-145/+244
Use tools/build/ makefiles to build rtla, inheriting the benefits of it. For example, having a proper way to handle dependencies. rtla is built using perf infra-structure when building inside the kernel tree. At this point, rtla diverges from perf in two points: Documentation and tarball generation/build. At the documentation level, rtla is one step ahead, placing the documentation at Documentation/tools/rtla/, using the same build tools as kernel documentation. The idea is to move perf documentation to the same scheme and then share the same makefiles. rtla has a tarball target that the (old) RHEL8 uses. The tarball was kept using a simple standalone makefile for compatibility. The standalone makefile shares most of the code, e.g., flags, with regular buildings. The tarball method was set as deprecated. If necessary, we can make a rtla tarball like perf, which includes the entire tools/build. But this would also require changes in the user side (the directory structure changes, and probably the deps to build the package). Inspired on perf and objtool.

Use tools/build/ makefiles to build latency-collector, inheriting the benefits of it. For example: Before this patch, a missing tracefs/traceevents headers will result in fail like this: ~/linux/tools/tracing/latency $ make cc -Wall -Wextra -g -O2 -o latency-collector latency-collector.c -lpthread latency-collector.c:26:10: fatal error: tracefs.h: No such file or directory 26 | #include <tracefs.h> | ^~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. make: *** [Makefile:14: latency-collector] Error 1 Which is not that helpful. After this change it reports: ~/linux/tools/tracing/latency# make Auto-detecting system features: ... libtraceevent: [ OFF ] ... libtracefs: [ OFF ] libtraceevent is missing. Please install libtraceevent-dev/libtraceevent-devel libtracefs is missing. Please install libtracefs-dev/libtracefs-devel Makefile.config:29: *** Please, check the errors above.. Stop.

2023-09-22rtla/timerlat: Do not stop user-space if a cpu is offlineGravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 1-2/+4
If no CPU list is passed, timerlat in user-space will dispatch one thread per sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF). However, not all CPU might be available, for instance, if HT is disabled. Currently, rtla timerlat is stopping the session if an user-space thread cannot set affinity to a CPU, or if a running user-space thread is killed. However, this is too restrictive. So, reduce the error to a debug message, and rtla timerlat run as long as there is at least one user-space thread alive.

2023-09-12rtla/timerlat_aa: Fix previous IRQ delay for IRQs that happens after thread ↵Gravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 1-5/+8
sample timerlat auto-analysis takes note of all IRQs, before or after the execution of the timerlat thread. Because we cannot go backward in the trace (we will fix it when moving to trace-cmd lib?), timerlat aa take note of the last IRQ execution in the waiting for the IRQ state, and then print it if it is executed after the expected timer IRQ starting time. After the thread sample, the timerlat starts recording the next IRQs as "previous" irq for the next occurrence. However, if an IRQ happens after the thread measurement but before the tracing stops, it is classified as a previous IRQ. That is not wrong, as it can be "previous" for the subsequent activation. What is wrong is considering it as a potential source for the last activation. Ignore the IRQ interference that happens after the IRQ starting time for now. A future improvement for timerlat can be either keeping a list of previous IRQ execution or using the trace-cmd library. Still, it requires further investigation - it is a new feature.

2023-09-12rtla/timerlat_aa: Fix negative IRQ delayGravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 1-1/+17
When estimating the IRQ timer delay, we are dealing with two different clock sources: the external clock source that timerlat uses as a reference and the clock used by the tracer. There are also two moments: the time reading the clock and the timer in which the event is placed in the buffer (the trace event timestamp). If the processor is slow or there is some hardware noise, the difference between the timestamp and the external clock, read can be longer than the IRQ handler delay, resulting in a negative time. If so, set IRQ to start delay as 0. In the end, it is less near-zero and relevant then the noise.

2023-06-13rtla/timerlat: Give timerlat auto analysis its own instanceGravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 3-21/+67
Currently, the auto-analysis is attached to the timerlat top instance. The idea was to avoid creating another instance just for that, so one instance could be reused. The drawback is that, by doing so, the auto-analysis run for the entire session, consuming CPU time. On my 24 box CPUs for timerlat with a 100 us period consumed 50 % with auto analysis, but only 16 % without. By creating an instance for auto-analysis, we can keep the processing stopped until a stop tracing condition is hit. Once it happens, timerlat auto-analysis can use its own trace instance to parse only the end of the trace. By doing so, auto-analysis stop consuming cpu time when it is not needed. If the --aa-only is passed, the timerlat top instance is reused for auto analysis.

Parsing and formating timerlat data might consume a reasonable amount of CPU time on very large systems, or when timerlat has a too short period. Add an option to run timerlat with auto-analysis enabled while skipping the statistics parsing. In this mode, rtla timerlat periodically checks if the tracing is on, going to sleep waiting for the stop tracing condition to stop tracing, or for the tracing session to finish. If the stop tracing condition is hit, the tool prints the auto analysis. Otherwise, the tool prints the max observed latency and exit. The max observed latency is captured via tracing_max_latency.

The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing. But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst: Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system, the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing Many comments and Kconfig help messages in the tracing code still refer to this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion.

2023-02-02rtla/timerlat: Add auto-analysis support to timerlat topGravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 1-2/+44
Currently, timerlat top displays the timerlat tracer latency results, saving the intuitive timerlat trace for the developer to analyze. This patch goes a step forward in the automaton of the scheduling latency analysis by providing a summary of the root cause of a latency higher than the passed "stop tracing" parameter if the trace stops. The output is intuitive enough for non-expert users to have a general idea of the root cause by looking at each factor's contribution percentage while keeping the technical detail in the output for more expert users to start an in dept debug or to correlate a root cause with an existing one. The terminology is in line with recent industry and academic publications to facilitate the understanding of both audiences. Here is one example of tool output: ----------------------------------------- %< ----------------------------------------------------- # taskset -c 0 timerlat -a 40 -c 1-23 -q Timer Latency 0 00:00:12 | IRQ Timer Latency (us) | Thread Timer Latency (us) CPU COUNT | cur min avg max | cur min avg max 1 #12322 | 0 0 1 15 | 10 3 9 31 2 #12322 | 3 0 1 12 | 10 3 9 23 3 #12322 | 1 0 1 21 | 8 2 8 34 4 #12322 | 1 0 1 17 | 10 2 11 33 5 #12322 | 0 0 1 12 | 8 3 8 25 6 #12322 | 1 0 1 14 | 16 3 11 35 7 #12322 | 0 0 1 14 | 9 2 8 29 8 #12322 | 1 0 1 22 | 9 3 9 34 9 #12322 | 0 0 1 14 | 8 2 8 24 10 #12322 | 1 0 0 12 | 9 3 8 24 11 #12322 | 0 0 0 15 | 6 2 7 29 12 #12321 | 1 0 0 13 | 5 3 8 23 13 #12319 | 0 0 1 14 | 9 3 9 26 14 #12321 | 1 0 0 13 | 6 2 8 24 15 #12321 | 1 0 1 15 | 12 3 11 27 16 #12318 | 0 0 1 13 | 7 3 10 24 17 #12319 | 0 0 1 13 | 11 3 9 25 18 #12318 | 0 0 0 12 | 8 2 8 20 19 #12319 | 0 0 1 18 | 10 2 9 28 20 #12317 | 0 0 0 20 | 9 3 8 34 21 #12318 | 0 0 0 13 | 8 3 8 28 22 #12319 | 0 0 1 11 | 8 3 10 22 23 #12320 | 28 0 1 28 | 41 3 11 41 rtla timerlat hit stop tracing ## CPU 23 hit stop tracing, analyzing it ## IRQ handler delay: 27.49 us (65.52 %) IRQ latency: 28.13 us Timerlat IRQ duration: 9.59 us (22.85 %) Blocking thread: 3.79 us (9.03 %) objtool:49256 3.79 us Blocking thread stacktrace -> timerlat_irq -> __hrtimer_run_queues -> hrtimer_interrupt -> __sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore -> cgroup_rstat_flush_locked -> cgroup_rstat_flush_irqsafe -> mem_cgroup_flush_stats -> mem_cgroup_wb_stats -> balance_dirty_pages -> balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_flags -> btrfs_buffered_write -> btrfs_do_write_iter -> vfs_write -> __x64_sys_pwrite64 -> do_syscall_64 -> entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thread latency: 41.96 us (100%) The system has exit from idle latency!

This can be caused by the current thread masking interrupts, which can be seen in the blocking thread stacktrace: the current thread (objtool:49256) disabled interrupts via raw spin lock operations inside mem cgroup, while doing write syscall in a btrfs file system.

2022-05-26rtla: Remove procps-ng dependencyGravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 4-24/+88
Daniel Wagner reported to me that readproc.h got deprecated. Also, while the procps-ng library was available on Fedora, it was not available on RHEL, which is a piece of evidence that it was not that used. rtla uses procps-ng only to find the PID of the tracers' workload. I used the procps-ng library to avoid reinventing the wheel. But in this case, reinventing the wheel took me less time than the time we already took trying to work around problems. Implement a function that reads /proc/ entries, checking if: - the entry is a directory - the directory name is composed only of digits (PID) - the directory contains the comm file - the comm file contains a comm that matches the tracers' workload prefix. - then return true; otherwise, return false. And use it instead of procps-ng.

2022-05-26rtla/Makefile: Properly handle dependenciesGravatar Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 1-0/+35
Linus had a problem compiling RTLA, saying: "[...] I wish the tracing tools would do a bit more package checking and helpful error messages too, rather than just fail with: fatal error: tracefs.h: No such file or directory" Which is indeed not a helpful message. Update the Makefile, adding proper checks for the dependencies, with useful information about how to resolve possible problems. For example, the previous error is now reported as: $ make ******************************************** ** NOTICE: libtracefs version 1.3 or higher not found ** ** Consider installing the latest libtracefs from your ** distribution, e.g., 'dnf install libtracefs' on Fedora, ** or from source: ** ** https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git/ ** ******************************************** These messages are inspired by the ones used on trace-cmd, as suggested by Stevel Rostedt. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAHk-=whxmA86E=csNv76DuxX_wYsg8mW15oUs3XTabu2Yc80yw@mail.gmail.com/ Changes from V1: - Moved the rst2man check to the install phase (when it is used). - Removed the procps-ng lib check [1] as it is being removed.
