softirq: Add trace points for tasklet entry/exit

2025-12-06T21:12:34Z

commit f4bf3ca2e5cba655824b6e0893a98dfb33ed24e5 upstream. Tasklets are supposed to finish their work quickly and should not block the current running process, but it is not guaranteed that they do so. Currently softirq_entry/exit can be used to analyse the total tasklets execution time, but that's not helpful to track individual tasklets execution time. That makes it hard to identify tasklet functions, which take more time than expected. Add tasklet_entry/exit trace point support to track individual tasklet execution. Trivial usage example: # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/irq/tasklet_entry/enable # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/irq/tasklet_exit/enable # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 4/4 #P:4 # # _-----=> irqs-off/BH-disabled # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / _-=> migrate-disable # |||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# ||||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | ||||| | | -0 [003] ..s1. 314.011428: tasklet_entry: tasklet=0xffffa01ef8db2740 function=tcp_tasklet_func -0 [003] ..s1. 314.011432: tasklet_exit: tasklet=0xffffa01ef8db2740 function=tcp_tasklet_func -0 [003] ..s1. 314.017369: tasklet_entry: tasklet=0xffffa01ef8db2740 function=tcp_tasklet_func -0 [003] ..s1. 314.017371: tasklet_exit: tasklet=0xffffa01ef8db2740 function=tcp_tasklet_func Signed-off-by: Lingutla Chandrasekhar Signed-off-by: J.

asm-generic/io: Add _RET_IP_ to MMIO trace for more accurate debug info

2025-10-19T14:23:22Z

[ Upstream commit 5e5ff73c2e5863f93fc5fd78d178cd8f2af12464 ] Due to compiler optimizations like inlining, there are cases where MMIO traces using _THIS_IP_ for caller information might not be sufficient to provide accurate debug traces. 1) With optimizations (Seen with GCC): In this case, _THIS_IP_ works fine and prints the caller information since it will be inlined into the caller and we get the debug traces on who made the MMIO access, for ex: rwmmio_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4 rwmmio_post_read: qcom_smmu_tlb_sync+0xe0/0x1b0 width=32 val=0x0 addr=0xffff8000087447f4 2) Without optimizations (Seen with Clang): _THIS_IP_ will not be sufficient in this case as it will print only the MMIO accessors itself which is of not much use since it is not inlined as below for example: rwmmio_read: readl+0x4/0x80 width=32 addr=0xffff8000087447f4 rwmmio_post_read: readl+0x48/0x80 width=32 val=0x4 addr=0xffff8000087447f4 So in order to handle this second case as well irrespective of the compiler optimizations, add _RET_IP_ to MMIO trace to make it provide more accurate debug information in all these scenarios.

btrfs: correct the order of prelim_ref arguments in btrfs__prelim_ref

[ Upstream commit bc7e0975093567f51be8e1bdf4aa5900a3cf0b1e ] btrfs_prelim_ref() calls the old and new reference variables in the incorrect order. This causes a NULL pointer dereference because oldref is passed as NULL to trace_btrfs_prelim_ref_insert(). Note, trace_btrfs_prelim_ref_insert() is being called with newref as oldref (and oldref as NULL) on purpose in order to print out the values of newref.

net/ipv4: add tracepoint for icmp_send

2025-03-07T15:56:44Z

[ Upstream commit db3efdcf70c752e8a8deb16071d8e693c3ef8746 ] Introduce a tracepoint for icmp_send, which can help users to get more detail information conveniently when icmp abnormal events happen. 1. Giving an usecase example: ============================= When an application experiences packet loss due to an unreachable UDP destination port, the kernel will send an exception message through the icmp_send function. By adding a trace point for icmp_send, developers or system administrators can obtain detailed information about the UDP packet loss, including the type, code, source address, destination address, source port, and destination port. This facilitates the trouble-shooting of UDP packet loss issues especially for those network-service applications. 2. Operation Instructions: ========================== Switch to the tracing directory. cd /sys/kernel/tracing Filter for destination port unreachable. echo "type==3 && code==3" > events/icmp/icmp_send/filter Enable trace event. echo 1 > events/icmp/icmp_send/enable 3. Result View: ================ udp_client_erro-11370 [002] ...s.12 124.728002: icmp_send: icmp_send: type=3, code=3.

mm: update mark_victim tracepoints fields

2025-03-07T15:56:28Z

[ Upstream commit 72ba14deb40a9e9668ec5e66a341ed657e5215c2 ] The current implementation of the mark_victim tracepoint provides only the process ID (pid) of the victim process. This limitation poses challenges for userspace tools requiring real-time OOM analysis and intervention. Although this information is available from the kernel logs, it’s not the appropriate format to provide OOM notifications. In Android, BPF programs are used with the mark_victim trace events to notify userspace of an OOM kill. For consistency, update the trace event to include the same information about the OOMed victim as the kernel logs. - UID In Android each installed application has a unique UID. Including the `uid` assists in correlating OOM events with specific apps. - Process Name (comm) Enables identification of the affected process. - OOM Score Will allow userspace to get additional insight of the relative kill priority of the OOM victim. In Android, the oom_score_adj is used to categorize app state (foreground, background, etc.), which aids in analyzing user-perceptible impacts of OOM events [1]. - Total VM, RSS Stats, and pgtables Amount of memory used by the victim that will, potentially, be freed up by killing it.
