This is v7 of the 'hist triggers' patchset, following feedback from
v6.

Changes from v6:

This version adds a new 'sym-offset' modifier as requested by Masami.
I implemented it as a modifier rather than using the trace option as
suggested, in part because I wanted to keep it all self-contained and
it seemed more consistent to just add it alongside the 'sym' modifier.
Also, hist triggers arent't really a tracer and therefore don't
directly tie into the option update/callback mechanism so making use
of it isn't as simple as a normal tracer.

I also changed the sort key specification to be stricter and signal an
error if the specified sort key wasn't found (rather than defaulting
to hitcount in those cases), also suggested by Masami.  Thanks,
Masami, for your input!

Also updated the Documentation and tracing/README to reflect the
changes.

Changes from v5:

This version adds support for compound keys, along with the related
ability to sort using primary and secondary keys.  This was mentioned
in previous versions as the last important piece that remained
unimplemented, and is now implemented.  (I didn't have time to get to
the couple of enhancements suggested by Masami, but I expect to be
able to add those later on top of these.)

Because we now support compound keys and it's not immediately clear in
the output exactly which fields correspond to keys, the key(s),
compound or not, are now enclosed by curly braces.

The Documentation and README have been updated to reflect the changes,
and several new examples have been added to illustrate how to use
compound keys.

Also, the code was updated to work with the new ftrace_event_file,
etc, renaming in tracing/for-next.

Changes from v4:

This version addresses some problems and suggestions made by Daniel
Wagner - a lot of the code was reworked to get rid of the distinction
between keys and values, and as a result, both keys and values can be
used as sort keys.  As suggested, it also allows 'val=' to be absent
in a trigger command - if no 'val' is specified, hitcount is assumed
and automatically used as the only val.

The map code was also separated out into a separate file,
tracing_map.c, allowing it to be reused.  It also adds a second tracer
called function_hist that actually does reuse the code, as an RFC
patch.

Patch 01/10 [tracing: Update cond flag when enabling or disabling..]
is a fix for a problem noticed by Daniel and that fixes a problem in
existing trigger code and should be applied regardless of whether the
rest of the patchset is merged.

As mentioned, patch 10/10 is an RFC patch implementing a new tracer
based on the function tracer code.  It's a fun little tool and is
useful for a specific problem I'm working on (and is also a nice test
of the tracing_map code), but is an RFC because first, I'm not sure it
would really be of general interest and secondly, it's POC-level
quality and I'd need to spend more time fixing it up to make it
upstreamable, but I don't want to waste my time if not.

There are a couple of important bits of functionality that were
present in v1 but not yet reimplemented in v5.

The first is support for compound keys.  Currently, maps can only be
keyed on a single event field, whereas in v1 they could be keyed on
multiple keys.  With support for compound keys, you can create much
more interesting output, such as for example per-pid lists of
syscalls or read counts e.g.:

  # echo 'hist:keys=common_pid.execname,id.syscall:vals=hitcount' > \
        /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/trigger

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_enter/hist

  key: common_pid:bash[3112], id:sys_write		       vals: count:69
  key: common_pid:bash[3112], id:sys_rt_sigprocmask	       vals: count:218

  key: common_pid:update-notifier[3164], id:sys_poll	       vals: count:37
  key: common_pid:update-notifier[3164], id:sys_recvfrom       vals: count:118

  key: common_pid:deja-dup-monito[3194], id:sys_sendto	       vals: count:1
  key: common_pid:deja-dup-monito[3194], id:sys_read	       vals: count:4
  key: common_pid:deja-dup-monito[3194], id:sys_poll	       vals: count:8
  key: common_pid:deja-dup-monito[3194], id:sys_recvmsg	       vals: count:8
  key: common_pid:deja-dup-monito[3194], id:sys_getegid	       vals: count:8

  key: common_pid:emacs[3275], id:sys_fsync		       vals: count:1
  key: common_pid:emacs[3275], id:sys_open		       vals: count:1
  key: common_pid:emacs[3275], id:sys_symlink		       vals: count:2
  key: common_pid:emacs[3275], id:sys_poll		       vals: count:23
  key: common_pid:emacs[3275], id:sys_select		       vals: count:23
  key: common_pid:emacs[3275], id:unknown_syscall	       vals: count:34
  key: common_pid:emacs[3275], id:sys_ioctl		       vals: count:60
  key: common_pid:emacs[3275], id:sys_rt_sigprocmask	       vals: count:116

  key: common_pid:cat[3323], id:sys_munmap		       vals: count:1
  key: common_pid:cat[3323], id:sys_fadvise64		       vals: count:1

Related to that is support for sorting on multiple fields.  Currently,
you can sort using only a primary key.  Being able to sort on multiple
or at least a secondary key is indispensible for seeing trends when
displaying multiple values.

Changes from v3:

v4 fixes the race in tracing_map_insert() noted in v3, where
map.val.key could be checked even if map.val wasn't yet set.  The
simple fix for that in tracing_map_insert() introduces the possibility
of duplicates in the map, which though rare, need to be accounted for
in the output.  To address that, duplicate-merging code was added to
the map-printing code.

It was also pointed out that it didn't seem correct to include
module.h, but the fix for that has deeper roots and is being addressed
by a separate patchset; for now we need to continue including
module.h, though prompted by that I did some other header include
cleanup.

The functionality remains the same as v2, but this version no longer
tries to export and use bpf_maps, and more importantly removes the
associated GFP_NOTRACE/trace event hacks and kmem macros required to
work around the bpf_map implementation.

The tracing_map functionality is instead built on top of a simple
lock-free map algorithm originated by Dr. Cliff Click (see references
in the code for more details), which though too restrictive to be
general-purpose in its current form, functions nicely as a
special-purpose tracing map.

v3 also moves the hist triggers code into a separate file and puts it
all behind a new config option, CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS.  It also merges
in the sorting code rather than keeping it as a separate patch.

This patchset also includes a couple other new and related triggers,
enable_hist and disable_hist, very similar to the existing
enable_event/disable_event triggers used to automatically enable and
disable events based on a triggering condition, but in this case
allowing hist triggers to be enabled and disabled in the same way.

 - Added an insert check for val before checking the key associated with val
 - Added code to merge possible duplicates in the map

Changes from v2:
 - reimplemented tracing_map, replacing bpf_map with nmi-safe/lock-free map
 - removed GPF_NOTRACE, kmalloc/free macros and event hacks needed by bpf_maps
 - moved hist triggers from trace_events_trigger.c to trace_events_hist.c
 - added CONFIG_HIST_TRIGGERS config option
 - consolidated sorting code with main patch

Changes from v1:
 - completely rewritten on top of tracing_map (renamed and exported bpf_map)
 - added map clearing and client ops to tracing_map
 - changed the name from 'hash' triggers to 'hist' triggers
 - added new trigger 'pause' feature
 - added new enable_hist and disable_hist triggers
 - added usage for hist/enable_hist/disable hist to tracing/README
 - moved examples into Documentation/trace/event.txt
 - added ___GFP_NOTRACE, kmalloc/kfree macros, and conditional kmem tracepoints

The following changes since commit a497adb45b8691f7e477e711a1a4bd54748d64fe:

When a trigger is enabled, the cond flag should be set beforehand,
otherwise a trigger that's expecting to process a trace record
(e.g. one with post_trigger set) could be invoked without one.

Likewise a trigger's cond flag should be reset after it's disabled,
not before.

Make is_string_field() and is_function_field() accessible outside of
trace_event_filters.c for other users of ftrace_event_fields.

Some triggers may need access to the trace event, so pass it in.  Also
fix up the existing trigger funcs and their callers.

Add a utility function to grab the syscall name from the syscall
metadata, given a syscall id.

Add a simple per-trigger 'paused' flag, allowing individual triggers
to pause.  We could leave it to individual triggers that need this
functionality to do it themselves, but we also want to allow other
events to control pausing, so add it to the trigger data.

Add tracing_map, a special-purpose lock-free map for tracing.

tracing_map is designed to aggregate or 'sum' one or more values
associated with a specific object of type tracing_map_elt, which
is associated by the map to a given key.

It provides various hooks allowing per-tracer customization and is
separated out into a separate file in order to allow it to be shared
between multiple tracers, but isn't meant to be generally used outside
of that context.

The tracing_map implementation was inspired by lock-free map
algorithms originated by Dr. Cliff Click:

+ * tracing_map_add_key_field() and tracing_map_add_sum_field().
+ * Currently a tracing map can only have one key field i.e. compound

+ * the client code calls tracing_map_init().
+ *
+ * When tracing_map_init() returns, tracing_map_elt elements can be
+ * inserted into the map using tracing_map_insert().  When called,
+ * tracing_map_insert() grabs a free tracing_map_elt from the pool, or
+ * finds an existing match in the map and in either case returns it.
+ * The client can then use tracing_map_update_sum() and
+ * tracing_map_read_sum() to update or read a given sum field for the
+ * tracing_map_elt.
+ *
+ * The client can at any point retrieve and traverse the map and
+ * the set of inserted tracing_map_elts via tracing_map_sort_entries().
+ * Sorting can be done on any field, including the key.

'hist' triggers allow users to continually aggregate trace events,
which can then be viewed afterwards by simply reading a 'hist' file
containing the aggregation in a human-readable format.

The basic idea is very simple and boils down to a mechanism whereby
trace events, rather than being exhaustively dumped in raw form and
viewed directly, are automatically 'compressed' into meaningful tables
completely defined by the user.

This is done strictly via single-line command-line commands and
without the aid of any kind of programming language or interpreter.

A surprising number of typical use cases can be accomplished by users
via this simple mechanism.  In fact, a large number of the tasks that
users typically do using the more complicated script-based tracing
tools, at least during the initial stages of an investigation, can be
accomplished by simply specifying a set of keys and values to be used
in the creation of a hash table.

The Linux kernel trace event subsystem happens to provide an extensive
list of keys and values ready-made for such a purpose in the form of
the event format files associated with each trace event.  By simply
consulting the format file for field names of interest and by plugging
them into the hist trigger command, users can create an endless number
of useful aggregations to help with investigating various properties
of the system.  See Documentation/trace/events.txt for examples.

hist triggers are implemented on top of the existing event trigger
infrastructure, and as such are consistent with the existing triggers
from a user's perspective as well.

The basic syntax follows the existing trigger syntax.  Users start an
aggregation by writing a 'hist' trigger to the event of interest's
trigger file:

  # echo hist:keys=xxx:values=yyy [ if filter] > event/trigger

Once a hist trigger has been set up, by default it continually
aggregates every matching event into a hash table using the event key
and value fields specified.

To view the aggregation at any point in time, simply read the 'hist'
file in the same directory as the 'trigger' file:

  # cat event/hist

The detailed syntax provides additional options for user control, and
is described exhaustively in Documentation/trace/events.txt and in the
virtual tracing/README file in the tracing subsystem.

Add sym-offset

And change sym, add more space for both.  And make modifiers stricter.

Similar to enable_event/disable_event triggers, these triggers enable
and disable the aggregation of events into maps rather than enabling
and disabling their writing into the trace buffer.

They can be used to automatically start and stop hist triggers based
on a matching filter condition.

If there's a paused hist trigger on system:event, the following would
start it when the filter condition was hit:

  # echo enable_hist:system:event [ if filter] > event/trigger

And the following would disable a running system:event hist trigger:

  # echo disable_hist:system:event [ if filter] > event/trigger

See Documentation/trace/events.txt for real examples.

@@ -494,3 +494,1134 @@ The following commands are supported:
 
   Note that there can be only one traceon or traceoff trigger per
   triggering event.
+
+- hist
+
+  This command aggregates event hits into a hash table keyed on one or
+  more trace event format fields (or stacktrace) and a set of running
+  totals derived from one or more trace event format fields and/or
+  event counts (hitcount).
+
+  The format of a hist trigger is as follows:
+
+        hist:keys=<field1>[,field2,...][:values=<field1>[,field2,...]]
+          [:sort=field1,field2,...][:size=#entries][:pause][:continue]
+          [:clear] [if <filter>]
+
+  When a matching event is hit, an entry is added to a hash table
+  using the key(s) and value(s) named.  Keys and values correspond to
+  fields in the event's format description.  Values must correspond to
+  numeric fields - on an event hit, the value(s) will be added to a
+  sum kept for that field.  The special string 'hitcount' can be used
+  in place of an explicit value field - this is simply a count of
+  event hits.  If 'values' isn't specified, an implicit 'hitcount'
+  value will be automatically created and used as the only value.
+  Keys can be any field, or the special string 'stacktrace', which
+  will use the event's kernel stacktrace as the key.  The keywords
+  'keys' or 'key' can be used to specify keys, and the keywords
+  'values', 'vals', or 'val' can be used to specify values.  Compound
+  keys consisting of up to two fields can be specified by the 'keys'
+  keyword.  Hashing a compound key produces a unique entry in the
+  table for each unique combination of component keys, and can be
+  useful for providing more fine-grained summaries of event data.
+  Additionally, sort keys consisting of up to two fields can be
+  specified by the 'sort' keyword.  If more than one field is
+  specified, the result will be a 'sort within a sort': the first key
+  is taken to be the primary sort key and the second the secondary
+  key.
+
+  'hist' triggers add a 'hist' file to each event's subdirectory.
+  Reading the 'hist' file for the event will dump the hash table in
+  its entirety to stdout.  Each printed hash table entry is a simple
+  list of the keys and values comprising the entry; keys are printed
+  first and are delineated by curly braces, and are followed by the
+  set of value fields for the entry.  By default, numeric fields are
+  displayed as base-10 integers.  This can be modified by appending
+  any of the following modifiers to the field name:
+
+        .hex        display a number as a hex value
+	.sym        display an address as a symbol
+	.sym-offset display an address as a symbol and offset
+	.syscall    display a syscall id as a system call name
+	.execname   display a common_pid as a program name
+
+  A typical usage scenario would be the following to enable a hist
+  trigger, read its current contents, and then turn it off:
+
+  # echo 'hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len' > \
+    /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_rx/trigger
+
+  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_rx/hist
+
+  # echo '!hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len' > \
+    /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_rx/trigger
+
+  The trigger file itself can be read to show the details of the
+  currently attached hist trigger.  This information is also displayed
+  at the top of the 'hist' file when read.
+
+  By default, the size of the hash table is 2048 entries.  The 'size'
+  param can be used to specify more or fewer than that.  The units are
+  in terms of hashtable entries - if a run uses more entries than
+  specified, the results will show the number of 'drops', the number
+  of hits that were ignored.  The size should be a power of 2 between
+  128 and 131072 (any non- power-of-2 number specified will be rounded
+  up).
+
+  The 'sort' param can be used to specify a value field to sort on.
+  The default if unspecified is 'hitcount' and the default sort order
+  is 'ascending'.  To sort in the opposite direction, append
+  .descending' to the sort key.
+
+  The 'pause' param can be used to pause an existing hist trigger or
+  to start a hist trigger but not log any events until told to do so.
+  'continue' or 'cont' can be used to start or restart a paused hist
+  trigger.
+
+  The 'clear' param will clear the contents of a running hist trigger
+  and leave its current paused/active state.
+
+- enable_hist/disable_hist
+
+  The enable_hist and disable_hist triggers can be used to have one
+  event conditionally start and stop another event's already-attached
+  hist trigger.  Any number of enable_hist and disable_hist triggers
+  can be attached to a given event, allowing that event to kick off
+  and stop aggregations on a host of other events.
+
+  The format is very similar to the enable/disable_event triggers:
+
+      enable_hist:<system>:<event>[:count]
+      disable_hist:<system>:<event>[:count]
+
+  Instead of enabling or disabling the tracing of the target event
+  into the trace buffer as the enable/disable_event triggers do, the
+  enable/disable_hist triggers enable or disable the aggregation of
+  the target event into a hash table.
+
+  A typical usage scenario for the enable_hist/disable_hist triggers
+  would be to first set up a paused hist trigger on some event,
+  followed by an enable_hist/disable_hist pair that turns the hist
+  aggregation on and off when conditions of interest are hit:
+
+  # echo 'hist:keys=skbaddr.hex:vals=len:pause' > \
+    /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
+
+  # echo 'enable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb if filename==/usr/bin/wget' > \
+    /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec/trigger
+
+  # echo 'disable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb if comm==wget' > \
+    /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exit/trigger
+
+  The above sets up an initially paused hist trigger which is unpaused
+  and starts aggregating events when a given program is executed, and
+  which stops aggregating when the process exits and the hist trigger
+  is paused again.
+
+  The examples below provide a more concrete illustration of the
+  concepts and typical usage patterns discussed above.
+
+
+6.2 'hist' trigger examples
+---------------------------
+
+  The first set of examples creates aggregations using the kmalloc
+  event.  The fields that can be used for the hist trigger are listed
+  in the kmalloc event's format file:
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/format
+    name: kmalloc
+    ID: 374
+    format:
+	field:unsigned short common_type;	offset:0;	size:2;	signed:0;
+	field:unsigned char common_flags;	offset:2;	size:1;	signed:0;
+	field:unsigned char common_preempt_count;		offset:3;	size:1;	signed:0;
+	field:int common_pid;					offset:4;	size:4;	signed:1;
+
+	field:unsigned long call_site;				offset:8;	size:8;	signed:0;
+	field:const void * ptr;					offset:16;	size:8;	signed:0;
+	field:size_t bytes_req;					offset:24;	size:8;	signed:0;
+	field:size_t bytes_alloc;				offset:32;	size:8;	signed:0;
+	field:gfp_t gfp_flags;					offset:40;	size:4;	signed:0;
+
+  We'll start by creating a hist trigger that generates a simple table
+  that lists the total number of bytes requested for each function in
+  the kernel that made one or more calls to kmalloc:
+
+    # echo 'hist:key=call_site:val=bytes_req' > \
+            /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
+
+  This tells the tracing system to create a 'hist' trigger using the
+  call_site field of the kmalloc event as the key for the table, which
+  just means that each unique call_site address will have an entry
+  created for it in the table.  The 'val=bytes_req' parameter tells
+  the hist trigger that for each unique entry (call_site) in the
+  table, it should keep a running total of the number of bytes
+  requested by that call_site.
+
+  We'll let it run for awhile and then dump the contents of the 'hist'
+  file in the kmalloc event's subdirectory (for readability, a number
+  of entries have been omitted):
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/hist
+    # trigger info: hist:keys=call_site:vals=bytes_req:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active]

+
+    Totals:
+        Hits: 4610
+        Entries: 45
+        Dropped: 0
+
+  The output displays a line for each entry, beginning with the key
+  specified in the trigger, followed by the value(s) also specified in
+  the trigger.  At the beginning of the output is a line that displays
+  the trigger info, which can also be displayed by reading the
+  'trigger' file:
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
+    hist:keys=call_site:vals=bytes_req:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active]
+
+  At the end of the output are a few lines that display the overall
+  totals for the run.  The 'Hits' field shows the total number of
+  times the event trigger was hit, the 'Entries' fields shows the
+  total number of used entries in the hash table, and the 'Dropped'
+  field shows the number of hits that were dropped because the number
+  of used entries for the run exceeded the maximum number of entries
+  allowed for the table (normally 0, but if not a hint that you may
+  want to increase the size of the table using the 'size' param).
+
+  Notice in the above output that there's an extra field, 'hitcount',
+  that wasn't specified in the trigger.  Also notice that in the
+  trigger info a param,'sort=hitcount', which wasn't specified in the
+  trigger either.  The reason is that every trigger implicitly keeps a
+  count of the total number of hits attributed to a given entry,
+  called the 'hitcount', and that in the absence of a user-specified
+  sort param, the hitcount is used as the default sort field.
+
+  The value 'hitcount' can be used in place of an explicit value in
+  the 'values' param if you don't really need to have any particular
+  field summed and are mainly interested in hit frequencies.
+
+  To turn the hist trigger off, simply call up the trigger in command
+  history and re-execute it with a '!' prepended:
+
+    # echo '!hist:key=call_site:val=bytes_req' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
+
+  Finally, notice that the call_site as displayed in the output above
+  isn't really very useful.  It's an address, but normally addresses
+  are displayed in hex.  To have a numeric field displayed as hex
+  values, simply append '.hex' to the field name in the trigger:
+
+    # echo 'hist:key=call_site.hex:val=bytes_req' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/hist
+    # trigger info: hist:keys=call_site.hex:vals=bytes_req:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active]

+  Because the default sort key above is 'hitcount', the above shows a

+
+  Finally, to finish off our kmalloc example, instead of simply having
+  the hist trigger display symbolic call_sites, we can have the hist
+  trigger additionally display the complete set of kernel stack traces
+  that led to each call_sites.  To do that, we simply use the special
+  value 'stacktrace' for the key param:
+
+    # echo 'hist:keys=stacktrace:values=bytes_req,bytes_alloc:sort=bytes_alloc' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
+
+  The above trigger will use the kernel stack trace in effect when an
+  event is triggered as the key for the hash table.  This allows the
+  enumeration of every kernel callpath that led up to a particular
+  event, along with a running total of any of the event fields for
+  that event.  Here we tally bytes requested and bytes allocated for
+  every callpath in the system that led up to a kmalloc (in this case
+  every callpath to a kmalloc for a kernel compile):
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/hist

+    The syscall counts above provide a rough overall picture of system
+    call activity on the system; we can see for example that the most
+    popular system call on this system was the 'sys_ioctl' system call.
+
+    We can use 'compound' keys to refine that number and provide some
+    further insight as to which processes exactly contribute to the
+    overall ioctl count.
+
+    The command below keeps a hitcount for every unique combination of
+    system call id and pid - the end result is essentially a table
+    that keeps a per-pid sum of system call hits.  The results are
+    sorted using the system call id as the primary key, and the
+    hitcount sum as the secondary key:

+    The above list does give us a breakdown of the ioctl syscall by

+    The above output shows that 'compiz' and 'Xorg' are far and away
+    the heaviest ioctl callers (do the really need to do so much of
+    that?).
+
+    The compound key examples used a key and a sum value (hitcount) to
+    sort the output, but we can just as easily use two keys instead.
+    Here's an example where we use a compound key composed of the the
+    common_pid and size event fields.  Sorting with pid as the primary
+    key and 'size' as the secondary key allows us to display an
+    ordered summary of the recvfrom sizes, with counts, received by
+    each process:

+  The above example also illustrates the fact that although a compound
+  key is treated as a single entity for hashing purposes, the sub-keys
+  it's composed of can be accessed independently.
+
+  The next example uses a string field as the hash key and
+  demonstrates how you can manually pause and continue a hist trigger.
+  In this example, we'll aggregate fork counts and don't expect a
+  large number of entries in the hash table, so we'll drop it to a
+  much smaller number, say 256:

+
+  The previous example showed how to start and stop a hist trigger by
+  appending 'pause' and 'continue' to the hist trigger command.  A
+  hist trigger can also be started in a paused state by initially
+  starting the trigger with ':pause' appended.  This allows you to
+  start the trigger only when you're ready to start collecting data
+  and not before.  For example, start the trigger in a paused state,
+  then unpause it and do something you want to measure, then pause the
+  trigger when done.
+
+  Of course, doing this manually can be difficult and error-prone, but
+  it is possible to automatically start and stop a hist trigger based
+  on some condition, via the enable_hist and disable_hist triggers.
+
+  For example, suppose we wanted to take a look at the relative
+  weights in terms of skb length for each callpath that leads to a
+  netif_receieve_skb event when downloading a decent-sized file using
+  wget.
+
+  First we set up an initially paused stacktrace trigger on the
+  netif_receive_skb event:
+
+    # echo 'hist:key=stacktrace:vals=len:pause' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
+
+  Next, we set up an 'enable_hist' trigger on the sched_process_exec
+  event, with an 'if filename==/usr/bin/wget' filter.  The effect of
+  this new trigger is that it will 'unpause' the hist trigger we just
+  set up on netif_receive_skb if and only if it sees a
+  sched_process_exec event with a filename of '/usr/bin/wget'.  When
+  that happens, all netif_receive_skb events are aggregated into a
+  hash table keyed on stacktrace:
+
+    # echo 'enable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb if filename==/usr/bin/wget' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec/trigger
+
+  The aggregation continues until the netif_receive_skb is paused
+  again, which is what the following disable_hist event does by
+  creating a similar setup on the sched_process_exit event, using the
+  filter 'comm==wget':
+
+    # echo 'disable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb if comm==wget' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exit/trigger
+
+  Whenever a process exits and the comm field of the disable_hist
+  trigger filter matches 'comm==wget', the netif_receive_skb hist
+  trigger is disabled.
+
+  The overall effect is that netif_received_skb events are aggregated
+  into the hash table for only the duration of the wget.  Executing a
+  wget command and then listing the 'hist' file will display the
+  output generated by the wget command:
+
+    $ wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/patch-3.19.xz
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/hist

+
+  The above shows all the netif_receive_skb callpaths and their total
+  lengths for the duration of the wget command.
+
+  The 'clear' hist trigger param can be used to clear the hash table.
+  Suppose we wanted to try another run of the previous example but
+  this time also wanted to see the complete list of events that went
+  into the histogram.  In order to avoid having to set everything up
+  again, we can just clear the histogram first:
+
+    # echo 'hist:key=stacktrace:vals=len:clear' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/trigger
+
+  Just to verify that it is in fact cleared, here's what we now see in
+  the hist file:
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/net/netif_receive_skb/hist
+    # trigger info: hist:keys=stacktrace:vals=len:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [paused]
+
+    Totals:
+        Hits: 0
+        Entries: 0
+        Dropped: 0
+
+  Since we want to see the detailed list of every netif_receive_skb
+  event occurring during the new run, which are in fact same events
+  being aggregated into the hash table, we add some additional
+  'enable_event' events the triggering sched_process_exec and
+  sched_process_exit events as such:
+
+    # echo 'enable_event:net:netif_receive_skb if filename==/usr/bin/wget' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec/trigger
+
+    # echo 'disable_event:net:netif_receive_skb if comm==wget' > \
+           /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exit/trigger
+
+  If you read the trigger files for the sched_process_exec and
+  sched_process_exit triggers, you should see two triggers for each:
+  one enabling/disabling the hist aggregation and the other
+  enabling/disabling the logging of events:
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec/trigger
+    enable_event:net:netif_receive_skb:unlimited if filename==/usr/bin/wget
+    enable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb:unlimited if filename==/usr/bin/wget
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exit/trigger
+    enable_event:net:netif_receive_skb:unlimited if comm==wget
+    disable_hist:net:netif_receive_skb:unlimited if comm==wget
+
+  In other words, whenever either of the sched_process_exec or
+  sched_process_exit events is hit and matches 'wget', it enables or
+  disables both the histogram and the event log, and what you end up
+  with is a hash table and set of events just covering the specified
+  duration.  Run the wget command again:
+
+    $ wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/patch-3.19.xz
+
+  Displaying the 'hist' file should show something similar to what you
+  saw in the last run, but this time you should also see the
+  individual events in the trace file:
+
+    # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
+
+    # tracer: nop
+    #
+    # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 183/1426   #P:4

Add a new tracer named function_hist:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/available_tracers

  blk mmiotrace function_hist function_graph wakeup_dl wakeup_rt wakeup
  irqsoff function nop

  # echo function_hist > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_hist

This is essentially the same as the kernel function tracer, but
instead of logging every function call into the trace buffer, it
continually updates a tracing map which keeps a running count for each
function.

As such, it provides an exhaustive enumeration of every traceable
function called in the kernel since the tracer was enabled, along with
the number of times it was called.

Example output from an overnight run:

  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_hist

OK, here I've ran a quick test.

[root@localhost tracing]# perf probe __kmalloc caller=\$stack0 size
Added new event:
  probe:__kmalloc      (on __kmalloc with caller=$stack0 size)

You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

        perf record -e probe:__kmalloc -aR sleep 1

Why does this have same singned-off-bys? :)

BTW, this looks a bit big to review and including many different features.
It seems to be broken into several incremental patches, like

- Add a basic hist trigger (key, val, size and simple hitcount sorting)
- Add multiple keys and values support
- Add "sort" attribute
- Add "continue" and "pause" attribute
- Add "clear" attribute
- Support ".hex" option for keys and vals
- Support ".sym" and ".sym-offset" options for keys and vals
- Support ".execname" option for keys
- Support ".syscall" option for keys
- Support ".stacktrace" option for keys


Thank you,

Hmm, yeah, forgot to squash the comments when I squashed the commits,
thanks for noticing.

Yeah, it just kept growing and growing with each revision...

Now that it's pretty much feature-complete, I'll break the features out
again in a new revision, for easier review.

Hi Tom,

I tried to play with this patchset, and it worked greatly.  Thanks for
your work!

But I found that it doesn't handle string fields properly so I can see
failure on accessing 'filename' field in sched_process_exec event.
Below is my fix for that..  Can you take a look at it?

Thanks,
Namhyung

Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Support string type key properly

The string in a trace event is usually recorded as dynamic array which
is variable length.  But current hist code only support fixed length
array so it cannot support most strings.

This patch fixes it by checking filter_type of the field and get
proper pointer with it.  With this, it can get a histogram of exec()
based on filenames like below:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec
  # cat 'hist:key=filename' > trigger
  # ps
   PID TTY       TIME CMD
     1 ?     00:00:00 init
    29 ?     00:00:00 sh
    38 ?     00:00:00 ps
  # ls
  enable  filter  format  hist  id  trigger
  # cat hist
  # trigger info: hist:keys=filename:vals=hitcount:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active]

  { filename: /usr/bin/ps                         } hitcount:          1
  { filename: /usr/bin/ls                         } hitcount:          1
  { filename: /usr/bin/cat                        } hitcount:          1

It looks good to me - I was able to verify both the problem and that
this fixes it - thanks very much for taking the time to figure this out.

I'll include this with my next revision of the patchset, which basically
just splits things up into smaller patches for review.  I may also make
a couple modifications in addition to this - at minimum, enforcing the
'should be the last key field' comment, but I'll try to think of a
better way, so that that comment can be removed instead...

Thanks again,

Tom

What is "elt"? I don't see it explained anywhere.

Not a very useful comment, as I have no idea what "elt" is.

I'll continue to review this patch about the mysterious element "elt".

So this sorts.

Then this sorts.

Why the double sort? Can't you just sort once, and then remove the dups?

I have reported the issue and send a fix for this patch

https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/21/161

I would have complained if I wasn't okay with it.

It's short for 'element' but I guess that's not why you're asking about
it.

Sorry for the confusion - I've written up a description of the data
structures and how they work, which is included in my next revision.

Here's that section, from the new tracing_map.h:

/*
 * This is an overview of the tracing_map data structures and how they
 * relate to the tracing_map API.  The details of the algorithms
 * aren't discussed here - this is just a general overview of the data
 * structures and how they interact with the API.
 *
 * The central data structure of the tracing_map is an initially
 * zeroed array of struct tracing_map_entry (stored in the map field
 * of struct tracing_map).  tracing_map_entry is a very simple data
 * structure containing only two fields: a 32-bit unsigned 'key'
 * variable and a pointer named 'val'.  This array of struct
 * tracing_map_entry is essentially a hash table which will be
 * modified by a single function, tracing_map_insert(), but which can
 * be traversed and read by a user at any time (though the user does
 * this indirectly via an array of tracing_map_sort_entry - see the
 * explanation of that data structure in the discussion of the
 * sorting-related data structures below).
 *
 * The central function of the tracing_map API is
 * tracing_map_insert().  tracing_map_insert() hashes the
 * arbitrarily-sized key passed into it into a 32-bit unsigned key.
 * It then uses this key, truncated to the array size, as an index
 * into the array of tracing_map_entries.  If the value of the 'key'
 * field of the tracing_map_entry found at that location is 0, then
 * that entry is considered to be free and can be claimed, by
 * replacing the 0 in the 'key' field of the tracing_map_entry with
 * the new 32-bit hashed key.  Once claimed, that tracing_map_entry's
 * 'val' field is then used to store a unique element which will be
 * forever associated with that 32-bit hashed key in the
 * tracing_map_entry.
 *
 * That unique element now in the tracing_map_entry's 'val' field is
 * an instance of tracing_map_elt, where 'elt' in the latter part of
 * that variable name is short for 'element'.  The purpose of a
 * tracing_map_elt is to hold values specific to the the particular
 * 32-bit hashed key it's assocated with.  Things such as the unique
 * set of aggregated sums associated with the 32-bit hashed key, along
 * with a copy of the full key associated with the entry, and which
 * was used to produce the 32-bit hashed key.
 *
 * When tracing_map_create() is called to create the tracing map, the
 * user specifies (indirectly via the map_bits param, the details are
 * unimportant for this discussion) the maximum number of elements
 * that the map can hold (stored in the max_elts field of struct
 * tracing_map).  This is the maximum possible number of
 * tracing_map_entries in the tracing_map_entry array which can be
 * 'claimed' as described in the above discussion, and therefore is
 * also the maximum number of tracing_map_elts that can be associated
 * with the tracing_map_entry array in the tracing_map.  Because of
 * the way the insertion algorithm works, the size of the allocated
 * tracing_map_entry array is always twice the maximum number of
 * elements (2 * max_elts).  This value is stored in the map_size
 * field of struct tracing_map.
 *
 * Because tracing_map_insert() needs to work from any context,
 * including from within the memory allocation functions themselves,
 * both the tracing_map_entry array and a pool of max_elts
 * tracing_map_elts are pre-allocated before any call is made to
 * tracing_map_insert().
 *
 * The tracing_map_entry array is allocated as a single block by
 * tracing_map_create().
 *
 * Because the tracing_map_elts are much larger objects and can't
 * generally be allocated together as a single large array without
 * failure, they're allocated individually, by tracing_map_init().
 *
 * The pool of tracing_map_elts are allocated by tracing_map_init()
 * rather than by tracing_map_create() because at the time
 * tracing_map_create() is called, there isn't enough information to
 * create the tracing_map_elts.  Specifically,the user first needs to
 * tell the tracing_map implementation how many fields the
 * tracing_map_elts contain, and which types of fields they are (key
 * or sum).  The user does this via the tracing_map_add_sum_field()
 * and tracing_map_add_key_field() functions, following which the user
 * calls tracing_map_init() to finish up the tracing map setup.  The
 * array holding the pointers which make up the pre-allocated pool of
 * tracing_map_elts is allocated as a single block and is stored in
 * the elts field of struct tracing_map.
 *
 * There is also a set of structures used for sorting that might
 * benefit from some minimal explanation.
 *
 * struct tracing_map_sort_key is used to drive the sort at any given
 * time.  By 'any given time' we mean that a different
 * tracing_map_sort_key will be used at different times depending on
 * whether the sort currently being performed is a primary or a
 * secondary sort.
 *
 * The sort key is very simple, consisting of the field index of the
 * tracing_map_elt field to sort on (which the user saved when adding
 * the field), and whether the sort should be done in an ascending or
 * descending order.
 *
 * For the convenience of the sorting code, a tracing_map_sort_entry
 * is created for each tracing_map_elt, again individually allocated
 * to avoid failures that might be expected if allocated as a single
 * large array of struct tracing_map_sort_entry.
 * tracing_map_sort_entry instances are the objects expected by the
 * various internal sorting functions, and are also what the user
 * ultimately receives after calling tracing_map_sort_entries().
 * Because it doesn't make sense for users to access an unordered and
 * sparsely populated tracing_map directly, the
 * tracing_map_sort_entries() function is provided so that users can
 * retrieve a sorted list of all existing elements.  In addition to
 * the associated tracing_map_elt 'elt' field contained within the
 * tracing_map_sort_entry, which is the object of interest to the
 * user, tracing_map_sort_entry objects contain a number of additional
 * fields which are used for caching and internal purposes and can
 * safely be ignored.

It was v3 of the patch he sent, which came at about v4 of the original
patchset.  I guess that just causes confusion, so I'll keep the version
numbers the same for a patchset.

Daniel sent me the original problem report and attempt at a patch - I
started from that but fixed it up but still wanted to give him credit.
>From now on, I'll keep follow-ons separate (it's kind of unusual to have
people sending patches for patchsets still under review, so wasn't sure
about that).
