From the version 1 cover letter:

  This patch series modifies the trigger_xxx_backtrace() NMI-based
  remote backtracing code to make it more flexible, and makes a few
  small improvements along the way.

  The motivation comes from the task isolation code, where there are
  scenarios where we want to be able to diagnose a case where some cpu
  is about to interrupt a task-isolated cpu.  It can be helpful to
  see both where the interrupting cpu is, and also an approximation
  of where the cpu that is being interrupted is.  The nmi_backtrace
  framework allows us to discover the stack of the interrupted cpu.

Version 2 of the patch series adopts the CPUIDLE_TEXT approach that I
suggested in some discussion around identifying idle cpus, and that
Peter Zijlstra endorsed.  I renumbered the patches to put the idle-test
patch last in the series (4/4) and it is the only one modified in this
version of the patch series.  (To be fair I did also change all the
S-O-B and author lines to be mellanox.com instead of ezchip.com).

I've tested that the change works as desired on tile, and build-tested
x86, arm64, and arm.  For x86 and arm64 I confirmed that the generic
cpuidle stuff as well as the architecture-specific routines are in the
new cpuidle section.  For arm I just build-tested it and made sure the
generic cpuidle routines were in the new cpuidle section, but I didn't
attempt to tease apart the tangle of platform-specific idle routines
that arm has and tag them with __cpuidle.  That might be more usefully
done by someone with arm platform experience in a follow-up patch.

v1 of the series is here:

Chris Metcalf (4):
  nmi_backtrace: add more trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods
  nmi_backtrace: do a local dump_stack() instead of a self-NMI
  arch/tile: adopt the new nmi_backtrace framework
  nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle,
the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative.  Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".

We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the
interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section.

  Cc: Chris Metcalf

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle,
the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative.  Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".

We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the
interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section.

The most common idle function for x86 is: mwait_idle_with_hints(),
trouble is, its an inline, so I'm not sure adding __cpuidle to it does
anything.

I've yet to find the magic objdump incantation to check. Or rather
objdump -h doesn't appear to list .cpuidle.text at all :/

I'm probably doing something silly...

Indeed!  Good catch.  I can't even speculate as to how I managed
to delete the thing on the previous line while adding something
on the following line :-)

No, you're right, it wouldn't help.  I didn't look at the drivers/cpuidle
subsystem at all in my patch, since I'm not that familiar with it,
but it seems like tagging acpi_processor_ffh_cstate_enter(), as the
only user of mwait_idle_with_hints(), will do the job.

I do see that native_play_dead() also uses mwait/monitor, but since
that's hotplug I don't think it's relevant to this patch series.

The easiest way to check for a given function is just to look
at the "nm -n" output and see that all the functions you expect
to reflect idle behavior are in the cpuidle begin/end range.
Or, to look at "objdump -dr" and search for monitor/mwait.

objdump -h certainly works to show .cpuidle.text if you look at
individual objects (e.g. arch/x86/kernel/process.o) but by the time
you're looking at the linked vmlinux image they have all been linked
into the giant .text section.

intel_idle() also uses it.

# nm -n ivb-ep-build/vmlinux | awk '/__cpuidle_text_start/ {p=1} {if (p) print $0} /__cpuidle_text_end/ {p=0}'
ffffffff81b16ca8 T __cpuidle_text_start
ffffffff81b16cb0 T default_idle
ffffffff81b16e50 t mwait_idle
ffffffff81b17080 t cpu_idle_poll
ffffffff81b17280 T default_idle_call
ffffffff81b172be T __cpuidle_text_end

So no intel_idle for me..

Ah, of course.  I was only looking at the config options enabled in the
kernel I was building.  I've added INTEL_IDLE now and grep'ed the whole
kernel tree as well, finding a couple of extra possibilities:

I do see mwait used in the ACPI 4.0 Processor Aggregator Device driver, but
this seems sufficiently far removed from regular cpuidle that I don't
think it's appropriate to tag the power_saving_thread() function -
the initial commit talks about using the mechanism "to ride-out
transient electrical and thermal emergencies."

There's also the thermal "powerclamp" driver that enforces a particular
amount of idle time across the system.  For this one it's less clear to
me whether this is a valid "idle" state that we should ignore when doing
NMI backtracing.  This would be the clamp_thread() function in
drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c.  For now I'm not including it,
but what do you think?

With the changes discussed so far in this email thread, we've gotten to:

ffffffff818df178 T __cpuidle_text_start
ffffffff818df180 T default_idle
ffffffff818df260 t mwait_idle
ffffffff818df3f0 T acpi_processor_ffh_cstate_enter
ffffffff818df4a0 T default_idle_call
ffffffff818df4e0 t cpu_idle_poll
ffffffff818df600 t intel_idle_freeze
ffffffff818df6a0 t intel_idle
ffffffff818df7b5 T __cpuidle_text_end

This is about 1,600 bytes (or about 450 instructions) that will cause
NMI to skip doing a backtrace if the PC is anywhere in the range.

Both the acpi power aggregator and the powerclamp driver are forced idle
and have some serious issues, so are safe to ignore for now.

Also, I would explicitly not include them, because forced idle might
still be interesting.

You can skip this one, that only happens when you suspend to idle.

Yeah, the alternative is making mwait_idle_with_hints an actual
function, but then we get to somehow exclude the other users like the
forced idle stuff.

This is still 100+ lines on a modern system, but better than the many
many thousands it would otherwise generate.

From the version 1 cover letter:

  This patch series modifies the trigger_xxx_backtrace() NMI-based
  remote backtracing code to make it more flexible, and makes a few
  small improvements along the way.

  The motivation comes from the task isolation code, where there are
  scenarios where we want to be able to diagnose a case where some cpu
  is about to interrupt a task-isolated cpu.  It can be helpful to
  see both where the interrupting cpu is, and also an approximation
  of where the cpu that is being interrupted is.  The nmi_backtrace
  framework allows us to discover the stack of the interrupted cpu.

I've tested that the change works as desired on tile, and build-tested
x86, arm64, and arm.  For x86 and arm64 I confirmed that the generic
cpuidle stuff as well as the architecture-specific routines are in the
new cpuidle section.  For arm I just build-tested it and made sure the
generic cpuidle routines were in the new cpuidle section, but I didn't
attempt to tease apart the tangle of platform-specific idle routines
that arm has and tag them with __cpuidle.  That might be more usefully
done by someone with arm platform experience in a follow-up patch.

I have also pushed it up to kernel.org to pull if that's easier:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile.git nmi-backtrace

v3: Various improvements to the set of __cpuidle functions;
    Add back in a missing section accidentally removed in modpost.c (PeterZ)

v2: Switch to using __cpuidle tagging, switch S-O-B to Mellanox

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle,
the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative.  Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".

We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the
interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section.

This commit suitably tags x86, arm64, and tile idle routines,
and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.

  Cc: Chris Metcalf

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle,
the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative.  Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".

We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the
interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section.

This commit suitably tags x86, arm64, and tile idle routines,
and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.

Well, what about intel_idle_freeze()?  Or do we not care?

And analogous stuff in processor_idle.c for that matter?

acpi_idle_enter()/acpi_idle_enter_freeze() plus stuff called by those?

I argued against it; when you're suspended the NMI watchdog is stopped
too. Then again, you've more experience debugging that thing, so if
you think its useful its not much effort adding it.

Ah, I only tagged acpi_processor_ffh_cstate_enter() because I went from
mwait_idle_with_hints(), I suppose acpi_safe_halt() and
acpi_idle_do_entry() itself for the INB method should cover it?

(This being one of the reasons I asked Chris to Cc you; you know this
stuff far better than I do)

Is it also stopped for suspend-to-idle?  I'm not sure about that.

Where do I need to look to find out?

Yes, these two should be sufficient.

Hmm I have memories of writing a patch to that effect when we were
starting with that suspend-to-idle stuff, because people didn't like
being woken up all the time.

But now that I look I cannot find it either..

From the version 1 cover letter:

  This patch series modifies the trigger_xxx_backtrace() NMI-based
  remote backtracing code to make it more flexible, and makes a few
  small improvements along the way.

  The motivation comes from the task isolation code, where there are
  scenarios where we want to be able to diagnose a case where some cpu
  is about to interrupt a task-isolated cpu.  It can be helpful to
  see both where the interrupting cpu is, and also an approximation
  of where the cpu that is being interrupted is.  The nmi_backtrace
  framework allows us to discover the stack of the interrupted cpu.

I've tested that the change works as desired on tile, and build-tested
x86, arm64, and arm.  For x86 and arm64 I confirmed that the generic
cpuidle stuff as well as the architecture-specific routines are in the
new cpuidle section.  For arm I just build-tested it and made sure the
generic cpuidle routines were in the new cpuidle section, but I didn't
attempt to tease apart the tangle of platform-specific idle routines
that arm has and tag them with __cpuidle.  That might be more usefully
done by someone with arm platform experience in a follow-up patch.

I have also pushed it up to kernel.org to pull if that's easier:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile.git nmi-backtrace

The change conflicts with Petr Mladek's NMI printk cleanup patches:

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle,
the output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative.  Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".

We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the
interrupted PC to see if it lies within that section.

This commit suitably tags x86, arm64, and tile idle routines,
and only adds in the minimal framework for other architectures.
