  To: rostedt; +Cc: linux-trace-devel

Basic infrastructure for host - guest timestamp synchronization and a
POC implementation of PTP-like algorithm. 

[
 v20 changes:
  - Rebased on top of latest master.
  - Removed the VCPUS_MAX hardcoded limit, reimplemented the cpu_pid[] array
    to be dynamically allocated.
  - Added a warning when reading of TRACECMD_OPTION_TIME_SHIFT option
    fails, due to unexpected option's size.
  - Improved loading of TRACECMD_OPTION_GUEST option data, as Steven
    suggested.
 v19 changes:
  - Rebased on top of latest master. The librtacefs is already merged,
    this allows to drop few patches from the set and use librtacefs APIs
    instead.
  - Reimplemented all new trace.dat options to be in binary format,
    instead of text. Leverage the new "trace-cmd dump" sub command to
    track what is written in the file.
  - Addressed Steven's comments.

 v18 changes: addressed Steven Rostdet comments:
  - Replaced semaphores with pthread mutexes.
  - Made bitmask with time sync protocols unlimited, so we can support
    more than 32 protocols. That required to redesign the trace request
    packet format.
  - A lot of small fixes.
	
 v17 changes:
  - Implemented new PTP logic for calculating the clocks offset, using
    histogram of all PTP samples. It gives better results than the logic
    with the fastest response time, so set the new one as default in the
    POC patch.

 v16 changes:
  - Fixed compilation in case no VSOCK is available (Thanks to Slavomir Kaslev)
  - Fixed a typo in trace-cmd-record.1.txt (Thanks to Slavomir Kaslev)
  - Added forgotten file in the patch "trace-cmd: Add new library APIs for
    ftrace instances." - trace-instance.c
  - Fixed few compilation warnings related to TSYNC_DEBUG code.
  - Removed a blank line at the end of "tsync_readme" file. 

 v15 changes:
  - Removed the patch for "--proc-map" from the series, as it should not
    be part of it.

 v14 changes:
  - Bring back the PTP-like algorithm and removed the ftrace event based logic.
  - Reimplemented the PTP-like algorithm to use raw ftrace markers, instead of clock_gettime() API.
  - Refactored the logic to be algorithm independent and plugin friendly.
  - Implemented continuous timestamps synchronization, while the trace is running.
  - Moved logic from trace-cmd application to libtracecmd, as new library APIs.
  - Implemented new trace id functionality.
  - Implemented new guest section in host trace.dat file.
	
 v13 changes:
  - Remove few patches from the set, as they were merged.
  - Rebased to the latest master, Slavomirs patchest "Add VM kernel tracing over
    vsockets and FIFOs" got merged!
 	
 v12 changes:
  - Rebased on top of Slavomir's v13 "Add VM kernel tracing over vsockets and FIFOs"

 v11 changes:
  - Rebased on top of Slavomir's v10 "Add VM kernel tracing over vsockets and FIFOs"
  - Addressed Slavomir's commnents from version 10 of the patch series.

 v10 changes:
  - Fixed broken compilation, call to timestamp_correction_calc() in timestamp_correct
    was smashed.
  - Replaced deprecated tep_data_event_from_type() API with tep_find_event().
  - Fixed a warning on assignment const to non const.

 v9 changes:
  - Fixed implementation of binary search algorithm in timestamp_correct()

 v8 changes:
  - Added rmdir() call in tracecmd_remove_instance(), to completely remove the instance. 
  However, there is an issue with deleting the instances using rmdir(), which is investigated.
  - Few changes in read_qemu_guests_pids(), timestamp_correct(), tsync_offset_load() 
 tracecmd_clock_context_new() and find_raw_events() suggested by Slavomir. 

 v7 changes:
  - Added warning messages in case time synchronization cannot be negotiated or fails.
  - Few optimizations and checks in read_qemu_guests_pids(), tsync_offset_load(),
    and find_raw_events(), suggested by Slavomir Kaslev.
  - Reworked timestamp_correct() to not use static variables.
  - Check TRACECMD_OPTION_TIME_SHIFT before reading time sync samples from the trace.dat file

 v6 changes:
  - Refactored tracecmd_msg_snd_time_sync() and tracecmd_msg_rcv_time_sync() functions:
    removed any time sync calculations logic as separate functions in trace-timesync.c file
  - Defined TSYNC_PROBE, TSYNC_REQ and TSYNC_RESP messages, in order to make the time sync
    protocol comprehensible.
  - Addressed Steven Rostedt comments.
  - Addressed Slavomir Kaslev commnets.

v5 changes:
  - Rebased to Slavomir's v8 "Add VM kernel tracing over vsockets and FIFOs"
    patch series.
  - Implemented an algorithm for time drift correction.
  - Addressed Slavomir's commnets.
  - Refactored the code: moved all time sync specific implementation in trace-timesync.c
  - Isolated all hardcoded event specific stuff in a structure, so it could be easily
    moved to external plugins.
  - Added a check for VSOCK support: do not perform vsock dependent time synchronisation
    in case there is no VSOCK support.

 v4 changes:
  - Removed the implementation of PTP-like algorithm. The current
    logic relies on matching time stamps of kvm_exit/virtio_transport_recv_pkt
    events on host to virtio_transport_alloc_pkt/vp_notify events on guest.
  - Rebased to Slavomir's v7 "Add VM kernel tracing over vsockets and FIFOs"
    patch series.
  - Decreased the time synch probes from 5000 to 300.
  - Addressed Steven Rostedt comments.
  - Code cleanup.

 v3 changes:
 - Removed any magic constants, used in the PTP-like algorithm,
   as Slavomir Kaslev suggested.
 - Implemented new algorithm, based on mapping kvm_exit events
   in host context to vsock_send events in guest context,
   suggested by Steven Rostedt.

 v2 changes:
  - Addressed Steven Rostedt comments.
  - Modified PTP-like timestamps sync algorithm to gain more accuracy, with the
    help of Yordan Karadzhov and Slavomir Kaslev.

  To: rostedt; +Cc: linux-trace-devel

From: Tzvetomir Stoyanov <tstoyanov@vmware.com>

When synchronizing timestamps between different machines, there are cases
when the time offset is negative. This patch changes the way time offset is
written and read from trace.dat file - as signed decimal, instead of hex.

In order to reuse the code, the function detecting the
number of local CPU is moved from trace-cmd application to
libtracecmd. The following new library API is introduced:
	int tracecmd_count_cpus(void);

In order to match host and guest events, a mapping between guest VCPU
and the host task, running this VCPU is needed. Extended existing
struct guest to hold such mapping and added logic in read_qemu_guests()
function to initialize it. Implemented a new internal API,
get_guest_vcpu_pid(), to retrieve VCPU-task mapping for given VM.

A new tracecmd API tracecmd_add_option_v() is introduced.
It adds new option in trace.dat, similar to tracecmd_add_option(),
but the option's data is passed as list of buffers. The standard
struct iovec is used as input parameter, containing the option's
data buffers.

The ID of the current tracing session is stored in the trace.dat file.
A new file option is introduced:
	TRACECMD_OPTION_TRACEID
The data is stored in the file as unsigned long long integer
A new libtracecmd API is introduced, to get the ID when the trace.dat file is read:
	unsigned long long tracecmd_get_traceid(struct tracecmd_input *handle);

From: Tzvetomir Stoyanov <tstoyanov@vmware.com>

Reorganized libtracecmd internal headers:
 - Renamed trace-cmd-local.h to trace-write-local.h
This internal header implements static __do_write_check() function,
used in trace-input.c, trace-output.c and trace-msg.c files.
The header cannot be included in other files, which do not call
__do_write_check(). The new name trace-write-local.h reflects more
closely the purpose of the file.
 - Added trace-cmd-local.h file, to share code inside libtracecmd.
 - Added definitions of htonll() and ntohll(), if not already defined, in
trace-cmd-local.h

Extend the trace request and trace reply messages, to include also
the IDs of host and guest tracing sessions. Those IDs are used to
unambiguously match the tracing sessions, when reading trace.dat files.

From: Tzvetomir Stoyanov <tstoyanov@vmware.com>

The TRACECMD_OPTION_TIME_SHIFT is used when synchronizing trace time stamps between
two trace.dat files. It contains multiple long long (time, offset) pairs, describing
time stamps _offset_, measured in the given local _time_. The content of the option
buffer is:
 8 bytes - long long integer, ID of the tracing session
 4 bytes - integer, count of timestamp offsets
 long long array of size _count_, local time in which the offset is measured
 long long array of size _count_, offset of the time stamps

New trace.dat option is introduced: TRACECMD_OPTION_GUEST.
Written in the host's trace.dat file, it contains information about
guests, traced at the same time: guest trace ID, number of VCPUs and
PIDs of the host tasks, running those VCPU. The data is stored in
the file as:
	Guest name, null terminated string
	long long (8 bytes) trace-id
	int (4 bytes) number of guest CPUs
	array of size number of guest CPUs:
		int (4 bytes) Guest CPU id
		int (4 bytes) Host PID, running the guest CPU

When tracing host and guest machines, both should use the same
tracing clock for event timestamps. If a clock is specified
as host tracing argument, with option "-C clock_name", the same
is injected as guest tracing argument. If the user wants to use
different tracing clocks, it can specify it using "-C clock_name"
as guest tracing argument. In that case, the one specified by
the user has higher priority.

In order to reuse code inside trace-cmd application context,
few functions are made non static and "trace_" is prepended
to their names:
	int trace_make_vsock(unsigned int port);
	int trace_get_vsock_port(int sd, unsigned int *port);
	int trace_open_vsock(unsigned int cid, unsigned int port);
	char *trace_get_guest_file(const char *file, const char *guest);

  To: rostedt; +Cc: linux-trace-devel

The infrastructure for host - guest timestamp synchronization is divided
in two parts:
 - logic in libtracecmd
 - logic in trace-cmd application

The libtracecmd is extended with new trace message, MSG_TIME_SYNC, used to
exchange time synch information between host and guest. The trace request and
response messages are extended to handle the time synch negotiation. The logic
is implemented in trace-timesync.c file:
 - Register / unregister time sync protocols.
 - Choosing what protocol will be used for a tracing session.
 - Init common context, used by all protocols - a ftrace instance, vsockets.
 - Invoke protocol routines to perform time synchronization.
 - Store calculated offsets in an array.

The trace-cmd application is extended to perform timestamp synchronization.
The main logic is in trace-tsync.c file
 - Negotiate what time synch algorithm will be used for the tracing session.
 - Run pthreads, to do continuous timestamp synchronization, during the trace.
 - Store calculated offsets in guest's trace.dat file, using TRACECMD_OPTION_TIME_SHIFT option
 - A new trace-cmd option is added, to control the timestamp synchronization:
      --tsync-interval: set the time sync loop interval, in ms. The default
   value is 0 - timestamp synchronization is performed twice, before and after
   the trace. If a negative number is specified, the timestamp synchronization
   is disabled.

From: Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) @ 2020-02-27 14:20 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: rostedt; +Cc: linux-trace-devel

PTP protocol is designed for synchronizing clocks of machines in a local network.
The same approach can be used for host - guest timestamp synchronization.
This implementation uses ftrace raw markers to track trace timestamps of PTP events.
The patch is a POC, two different algorithms for PTP calculations are proposed:
  - Choosing the sample with the fastest response time for calculating the clocks offset.
  - Calculating the clocks offset using the average of all PTP samples.

The implementation can be tuned using those parameters:
 - #define FASTEST_RESPONSE - is defined, the sample with the fastest response time
    is used for calculating the clocks offset. Otherwise the histogram of all samples is used.
 - #define PTP_SYNC_LOOP 340 - defines the number of samples, used for one calculation.
 - --tsync-interval - a trace-cmd argument, choose the intervals between offset calculations,
	performed continuously during the trace.
 - #define TSYNC_DEBUG - if defined, a debug information is collected and stored in files,
   in the guest machine:
     s-cid*.txt - For each offset calculation: host and guest clocks and calculated offset.
     res-cid*.txt - For each tracing session: all calculated clock offsets.

From: Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) @ 2020-02-27 14:20 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: rostedt; +Cc: linux-trace-devel

These scripts can be used to visualise debug files, written when the PTP-like algorithm
is compiled with TSYNC_DEBUG defined. The files are located in the guest machine:
    s-cid*.txt - For each offset calculation: host and guest clocks and calculated offset.
    res-cid*.txt - For each tracing session: all calculated clock offsets.

tsync_hist.py plots a histogram, using data from a s-cid*.txt file:
	"python tsync_hist.py s-cid2_1.txt"
tsync_res.py plots a line, using data from res-cid*.txt file:
	"python tsync_res.py res-cid2.txt"

+PTP-like algorithm debug
+========================
+
+tsync_*.py scripts can be used to visualise debug files, written when the PTP-like algorithm
+is compiled with TSYNC_DEBUG defined. The files are located in the guest machine:
+    s-cid*.txt - For each offset calculation: host and guest clocks and calculated offset.
+    res-cid*.txt - For each tracing session: all calculated clock offsets.
+
+tsync_hist.py plots a histogram, using data from a s-cid*.txt file:
+	"python tsync_hist.py s-cid2_1.txt"
+tsync_res.py plots a line, using data from res-cid*.txt file:

This check makes the check before its call not needed (see below).

It is possible that the cpu numbers may be sparse, which means we should we
should probably initialize the new numbers as...

		/* Handle sparse CPU numbers */
		for (i = guest->cpu_max; i < cpu; i++)

Note, the above wont loop at all if there's no sparse CPUs (missing
numbers).

"int" is not needed. Just "long" is good enough.

	long vcpu;
	long pid;

Although, I doubt there will be more than 4 billion of either of these, so
they should probably be just "int". Which means you don't need the INT_MAX
checks.

The vcpu >= 0 && pid >= 0 are not needed due to the check in the function.

Probably should check the return status of this function, and report a
warning if it fails.

As a cpu_pid may be zero (unlikely), and the code I showed above
initialized sparse cpus as -1, then this should be guests[i].cpu_pid < 0.

After applying this patch, my recordings stopped working. That's because
I'm still using fifos. I found the reason for this below.

The above is what broke. That should be:

	msg->trace_resp.flags = use_fifos ? MSG_TRACE_USE_FIFOS : 0;
	msg->trace_resp.flags = htonl(msg->trace_resp.flags);

FYI,

I pulled in patch 1-2 of this series, so you don't need to resend those two.

I'm still looking at patch 14, but the rest look fine (besides what I
commented on). If you want to send the series again, please do. Just start
with patch 3 of this series and base it off of the latest master.

Now that I'm playing with patch 14, I took more interest in this code.

Hmm, this is the size in bytes of the mask, not bits. You may need both.

#define PROTO_MASK_BITS (PROTO_MASK_SIZE * 8)

Because we can have up to 8 protocols per mask size (8 bits in a byte).

The above should be: proto->proto_id < word * PROTO_MASK_BITS

Because what you have currently is:

   proto->proto_id < word * 1


> +

And here you want PROTO_MASK_BITS, otherwise if we have a proto_id of 2
(which would fit as a bit in a char), this would become:

	id = 2 - 0 * 1 = 1

> +			if (id >= PROTO_MASK_SIZE)

Then this is: 2 >= 1 which would skip it.

Hmm, maybe you don't even need PROTO_MASK_SIZE and only need
PROTO_MASK_BITS.

The reason I use long is strtol(), which returns long integer. In case
of an error, this API returns LONG_MAX or LONG_MIN.
The set_vcpu_pid_mapping() accepts int, that's why I put these checks
- to filter possible strtol() parsing errors and int overflow.
I'll keep the checks and remove the duplicated ones in set_vcpu_pid_mapping()

I'll put a warning, as this failure is not critical - the guest
tracing will still work, even without this mapping.

The PROTO_MASK_SIZE is the size of 1 word of the mask array, in bytes.
In the first implementation the array was of integers, and the define
was 4. It was very easy to switch to char, that's why I prefer to keep
the implementation as is - even though that "proto->proto_id < word *
1".
The confusion is the name of the variable "id", which is actually the
index of the bit inside the given bitmask's word. In the example of
proto_id 2:
  - the word is 0, this proto_id is in the first word from the bitmask array.
  - the index of the bit in this word is 2 ( id = 2 - 0 * 1 = 2 )
  - then we can check if the bit, representing the proto_id 2 is up:
        if ((1 << id) & proto_mask[word]) ...

Yes, 2 (that's what I meant), but then my point still is valid.

>   - then we can check if the bit, representing the proto_id 2 is up:
>         if ((1 << id) & proto_mask[word]) ...

I'm talking about this:

+			id = proto->proto_id - word * PROTO_MASK_SIZE;
+			if (id >= PROTO_MASK_SIZE)
+				continue;


Where id = 2, then if (2 >= 1) continue, means we skip it.

You need: if (id >= PROTO_MASK_SIZE_BITS)
