ring-buffer: add benchmark and tester This patch adds code that can benchmark the ring buffer as well as test it. This code can be compiled into the kernel (not recommended) or as a module. A separate ring buffer is used to not interfer with other users, like ftrace. It creates a producer and a consumer (option to disable creation of the consumer) and will run for 10 seconds, then sleep for 10 seconds and then repeat. While running, the producer will write 10 byte loads into the ring buffer with just putting in the current CPU number. The reader will continually try to read the buffer. The reader will alternate from reading the buffer via event by event, or by full pages. The output is a pr_info, thus it will fill up the syslogs.

ring-buffer: Add multiple iterations between benchmark timestamps The ring_buffer_benchmark does a gettimeofday after every write to the ring buffer in its measurements. This adds the overhead of the call to gettimeofday to the measurements and does not give an accurate picture of the length of time it takes to record a trace. This was first noticed with perf top: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PerfTop: 679 irqs/sec kernel:99.9% [1000Hz cpu-clock-msecs], (all, 4 CPUs) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ samples pcnt kernel function _______ _____ _______________ 1673.00 - 27.8% : trace_clock_local 806.00 - 13.4% : do_gettimeofday 590.00 - 9.8% : rb_reserve_next_event 554.00 - 9.2% : native_read_tsc 431.00 - 7.2% : ring_buffer_lock_reserve 365.00 - 6.1% : __rb_reserve_next 355.00 - 5.9% : rb_end_commit 322.00 - 5.4% : getnstimeofday 268.00 - 4.5% : ring_buffer_unlock_commit 262.00 - 4.4% : ring_buffer_producer_thread [ring_buffer_benchmark] 113.00 - 1.9% : read_tsc 91.00 - 1.5% : debug_smp_processor_id 69.00 - 1.1% : trace_recursive_unlock 66.00 - 1.1% : ring_buffer_event_data 25.00 - 0.4% : _spin_unlock_irq And the length of each write to the ring buffer measured at 310ns. This patch adds a new module parameter called "write_interval" which is defaulted to 50. This is the number of writes performed between timestamps. After this patch perf top shows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PerfTop: 244 irqs/sec kernel:100.0% [1000Hz cpu-clock-msecs], (all, 4 CPUs) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ samples pcnt kernel function _______ _____ _______________ 2842.00 - 40.4% : trace_clock_local 1043.00 - 14.8% : rb_reserve_next_event 784.00 - 11.1% : ring_buffer_lock_reserve 600.00 - 8.5% : __rb_reserve_next 579.00 - 8.2% : rb_end_commit 440.00 - 6.3% : ring_buffer_unlock_commit 290.00 - 4.1% : ring_buffer_producer_thread [ring_buffer_benchmark] 155.00 - 2.2% : debug_smp_processor_id 117.00 - 1.7% : trace_recursive_unlock 103.00 - 1.5% : ring_buffer_event_data 28.00 - 0.4% : do_gettimeofday 22.00 - 0.3% : _spin_unlock_irq 14.00 - 0.2% : native_read_tsc 11.00 - 0.2% : getnstimeofday do_gettimeofday dropped from 13% usage to a mere 0.4%! (using the default 50 interval) The measurement for each timestamp went from 310ns to 210ns. That's 100ns (1/3rd) overhead that the gettimeofday call was introducing.

ring-buffer: Add place holder recording of dropped events Currently, when the ring buffer drops events, it does not record the fact that it did so. It does inform the writer that the event was dropped by returning a NULL event, but it does not put in any place holder where the event was dropped. This is not a trivial thing to add because the ring buffer mostly runs in overwrite (flight recorder) mode. That is, when the ring buffer is full, new data will overwrite old data. In a produce/consumer mode, where new data is simply dropped when the ring buffer is full, it is trivial to add the placeholder for dropped events. When there's more room to write new data, then a special event can be added to notify the reader about the dropped events. But in overwrite mode, any new write can overwrite events. A place holder can not be inserted into the ring buffer since there never may be room. A reader could also come in at anytime and miss the placeholder. Luckily, the way the ring buffer works, the read side can find out if events were lost or not, and how many events. Everytime a write takes place, if it overwrites the header page (the next read) it updates a "overrun" variable that keeps track of the number of lost events. When a reader swaps out a page from the ring buffer, it can record this number, perfom the swap, and then check to see if the number changed, and take the diff if it has, which would be the number of events dropped. This can be stored by the reader and returned to callers of the reader. Since the reader page swap will fail if the writer moved the head page since the time the reader page set up the swap, this gives room to record the overruns without worrying about races. If the reader sets up the pages, records the overrun, than performs the swap, if the swap succeeds, then the overrun variable has not been updated since the setup before the swap. For binary readers of the ring buffer, a flag is set in the header of each sub page (sub buffer) of the ring buffer. This flag is embedded in the size field of the data on the sub buffer, in the 31st bit (the size can be 32 or 64 bits depending on the architecture), but only 27 bits needs to be used for the actual size (less actually). We could add a new field in the sub buffer header to also record the number of events dropped since the last read, but this will change the format of the binary ring buffer a bit too much. Perhaps this change can be made if the information on the number of events dropped is considered important enough. Note, the notification of dropped events is only used by consuming reads or peeking at the ring buffer. Iterating over the ring buffer does not keep this information because the necessary data is only available when a page swap is made, and the iterator does not swap out pages.

tracing: Use NUMA allocation for per-cpu ring buffer pages The tracing ring buffer is a group of per-cpu ring buffers where allocation and logging is done on a per-cpu basis. The events that are generated on a particular CPU are logged in the corresponding buffer. This is to provide wait-free writes between CPUs and good NUMA node locality while accessing the ring buffer. However, the allocation routines consider NUMA locality only for buffer page metadata and not for the actual buffer page. This causes the pages to be allocated on the NUMA node local to the CPU where the allocation routine is running at the time. This patch fixes the problem by using a NUMA node specific allocation routine so that the pages are allocated from a NUMA node local to the logging CPU. I tested with the getuid_microbench from autotest. It is a simple binary that calls getuid() in a loop and measures the average time for the syscall to complete. The following command was used to test: $ getuid_microbench 1000000 Compared the numbers found on kernel with and without this patch and found that logging latency decreases by 30-50 ns/call. tracing with non-NUMA allocation - 569 ns/call tracing with NUMA allocation - 512 ns/call Signed-off-by: Vaibhav Nagarnaik <vnagarnaik@google.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Michael Rubin <mrubin@google.com> Cc: David Sharp <dhsharp@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1304470602-20366-1-git-send-email-vnagarnaik@google.com Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

ring-buffer: add benchmark and tester This patch adds code that can benchmark the ring buffer as well as test it. This code can be compiled into the kernel (not recommended) or as a module. A separate ring buffer is used to not interfer with other users, like ftrace. It creates a producer and a consumer (option to disable creation of the consumer) and will run for 10 seconds, then sleep for 10 seconds and then repeat. While running, the producer will write 10 byte loads into the ring buffer with just putting in the current CPU number. The reader will continually try to read the buffer. The reader will alternate from reading the buffer via event by event, or by full pages. The output is a pr_info, thus it will fill up the syslogs.

ring-buffer: Add multiple iterations between benchmark timestamps The ring_buffer_benchmark does a gettimeofday after every write to the ring buffer in its measurements. This adds the overhead of the call to gettimeofday to the measurements and does not give an accurate picture of the length of time it takes to record a trace. This was first noticed with perf top: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PerfTop: 679 irqs/sec kernel:99.9% [1000Hz cpu-clock-msecs], (all, 4 CPUs) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ samples pcnt kernel function _______ _____ _______________ 1673.00 - 27.8% : trace_clock_local 806.00 - 13.4% : do_gettimeofday 590.00 - 9.8% : rb_reserve_next_event 554.00 - 9.2% : native_read_tsc 431.00 - 7.2% : ring_buffer_lock_reserve 365.00 - 6.1% : __rb_reserve_next 355.00 - 5.9% : rb_end_commit 322.00 - 5.4% : getnstimeofday 268.00 - 4.5% : ring_buffer_unlock_commit 262.00 - 4.4% : ring_buffer_producer_thread [ring_buffer_benchmark] 113.00 - 1.9% : read_tsc 91.00 - 1.5% : debug_smp_processor_id 69.00 - 1.1% : trace_recursive_unlock 66.00 - 1.1% : ring_buffer_event_data 25.00 - 0.4% : _spin_unlock_irq And the length of each write to the ring buffer measured at 310ns. This patch adds a new module parameter called "write_interval" which is defaulted to 50. This is the number of writes performed between timestamps. After this patch perf top shows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PerfTop: 244 irqs/sec kernel:100.0% [1000Hz cpu-clock-msecs], (all, 4 CPUs) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ samples pcnt kernel function _______ _____ _______________ 2842.00 - 40.4% : trace_clock_local 1043.00 - 14.8% : rb_reserve_next_event 784.00 - 11.1% : ring_buffer_lock_reserve 600.00 - 8.5% : __rb_reserve_next 579.00 - 8.2% : rb_end_commit 440.00 - 6.3% : ring_buffer_unlock_commit 290.00 - 4.1% : ring_buffer_producer_thread [ring_buffer_benchmark] 155.00 - 2.2% : debug_smp_processor_id 117.00 - 1.7% : trace_recursive_unlock 103.00 - 1.5% : ring_buffer_event_data 28.00 - 0.4% : do_gettimeofday 22.00 - 0.3% : _spin_unlock_irq 14.00 - 0.2% : native_read_tsc 11.00 - 0.2% : getnstimeofday do_gettimeofday dropped from 13% usage to a mere 0.4%! (using the default 50 interval) The measurement for each timestamp went from 310ns to 210ns. That's 100ns (1/3rd) overhead that the gettimeofday call was introducing.

ring-buffer: add benchmark and tester This patch adds code that can benchmark the ring buffer as well as test it. This code can be compiled into the kernel (not recommended) or as a module.
