Revert "block: add missing block_bio_complete() tracepoint"

2013-04-18T16:00:26Z

This reverts commit 3a366e614d0837d9fc23f78cdb1a1186ebc3387f. Wanlong Gao reports that it causes a kernel panic on his machine several minutes after boot. Reverting it removes the panic. Jens says: "It's not quite clear why that is yet, so I think we should just revert the commit for 3.9 final (which I'm assuming is pretty close). The wifi is crap at the LSF hotel, so sending this email instead of queueing up a revert and pull request."

block: Use bio_sectors() more consistently

2013-03-23T21:15:30Z

Bunch of places in the code weren't using it where they could be - this'll reduce the size of the patch that puts bi_sector/bi_size/bi_idx into a struct bvec_iter.

block: add block_{touch|dirty}_buffer tracepoint

2013-01-14T14:00:36Z

The former is triggered from touch_buffer() and the latter mark_buffer_dirty(). This is part of tracepoint additions to improve visiblity into dirtying / writeback operations for io tracer and userland. v2: Transformed writeback_dirty_buffer to block_dirty_buffer and made it share TP definition with block_touch_buffer.

block: add @req to bio_{front|back}_merge tracepoints

2013-01-14T14:00:36Z

bio_{front|back}_merge tracepoints report a bio merging into an existing request but didn't specify which request the bio is being merged into. Add @req to it. This makes it impossible to share the event template with block_bio_queue - split it out. @req isn't used or exported to userland at this point and there is no userland visible behavior change. Later changes will make use of the extra parameter. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: add missing block_bio_complete() tracepoint

2013-01-14T14:00:36Z

bio completion didn't kick block_bio_complete TP. Only dm was explicitly triggering the TP on IO completion. This makes block_bio_complete TP useless for tracers which want to know about bios, and all other bio based drivers skip generating blktrace completion events. This patch makes all bio completions via bio_endio() generate block_bio_complete TP. * Explicit trace_block_bio_complete() invocation removed from dm and the trace point is unexported. * @rq dropped from trace_block_bio_complete(). bios may fly around w/o queue associated. Verifying and accessing the assocaited queue belongs to TP probes. * blktrace now gets both request and bio completions. Make it ignore bio completions if request completion path is happening. This makes all bio based drivers generate blktrace completion events properly and makes the block_bio_complete TP actually useful. v2: With this change, block_bio_complete TP could be invoked on sg commands which have bio's with %NULL bi_bdev. Update TP assignment code to check whether bio->bi_bdev is %NULL before dereferencing.

blktrace: add FLUSH/FUA support

2011-08-11T08:36:05Z

Add FLUSH/FUA support to blktrace. As FLUSH precedes WRITE and/or FUA follows WRITE, use the same 'F' flag for both cases and distinguish them by their (relative) position. The end results look like (other flags might be shown also): - WRITE: W - WRITE_FLUSH: FW - WRITE_FUA: WF - WRITE_FLUSH_FUA: FWF Note that we reuse TC_BARRIER due to lack of bit space of act_mask so that the older versions of blktrace tools will report flush requests as barriers from now on.

block: make unplug timer trace event correspond to the schedule() unplug

2011-04-16T11:51:05Z

It's a pretty close match to what we had before - the timer triggering would mean that nobody unplugged the plug in due time, in the new scheme this matches very closely what the schedule() unplug now is. It's essentially the difference between an explicit unplug (IO unplug) or an implicit unplug (timer unplug, we scheduled with pending IO queued). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: fixup block IO unplug trace call

2011-04-12T08:12:19Z

It was removed with the on-stack plugging, readd it and track the depth of requests added when flushing the plug. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block: remove block_unplug_timer() trace point

2011-04-12T08:06:33Z

We no longer have an unplug timer running, so no point in keeping the trace point. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
