1.ftrace是什么
ftrace是linux原生的一个trace工具,最早在2.6.27引入,跟踪能力强大, 可以调试和分析诸如延迟、代码路径、性能等。能很好帮助开发者知道内核正在干什么,从而更好的分析系统问题。
1.1 Ftrace 跟踪工具由**性能分析器(profiler)和跟踪器(tracer)**两部分组成:
**性能分析器:**用来提供统计和直方图数据(需要 CONFIG_ FUNCTION_PROFILER=y) 函数性能分析 直方图
跟踪器:提供跟踪事件的详情 函数跟踪(function) 点跟踪(tracepoint) kprobe uprobe 函数调用关系(function_graph) hwlat 等
1.2 ftrace构成:
(1)提供函数钩子的基础设施; (2)基于tracefs文件系统的trace框架;
除了原生操作,还有一些基于ftrace的前端工具,比如perf-tools和trace-cmd,关系图如下:
1.3Ftrace能做什么
Ftrace 可用来快速排查以下相关问题: 特定内核函数调用的频次 (function) 内核函数在被调用的过程中路径(调用栈) (function + stack) 内核函数调用的子函数流程(子调用栈)(function graph) 由于抢占导致的高延时路径等
https://www.daodaodao123.com/?p=695#step5
下面的实例操作,用之前搭建的arm64+linux环境来调试;
最简单的配置方法是编译内核时,将trace部分全部打开(开机频繁打印部分关掉);
2.使用方法
简单说,主要有三步:
设置 tracer 类型
设置 tracer 参数
使能 tracer
进入 ftrace 工作目录:
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
查看系统支持的 tracer 类型:
# cat available_tracers
hwlat blk function_graph wakeup_dl wakeup_rt wakeup irqsoff function nop
案例1:Function trace
function默认会记录当前运行过程中的所有函数; 如果只想跟踪某个进程,可以使用set_ftrace_pid; 如果只想跟踪某个函数,可以使用set_ftrace_filter;
(0)关闭tracer
echo 0 > tracing_on
#清空打印
echo > trace
(1)设置类型: 设current_tracer 类型为 function
echo function > current_tracer
(2)设置参数: 如果开启动态配置选项,可以设置过滤函数,或指定跟踪函数
设置 trace 的过滤函数,即只跟踪blk_update_request
echo blk_update_request > set_ftrace_filter
设置不跟踪指定函数;
echo > set_ftrace_filter
echo blk_update_request > set_ftrace_notrace
还可以用通配符"
#'*match*':匹配所有包含match的函数;
echo 'hrtimer_*' >> set_ftrace_filter #过滤所有以"hrtimer_"开头的函数
还可以做基于模块的过滤: 例如,过滤 ext4 module 的 write* 函数:·
#控制范式:<function>:<command>:<parameter>
echo 'write*:mod:ext4' > set_ftrace_filter
感叹号用来移除某个函数,把多个组合过滤条件的某一个去掉:
echo '!ip_rcv' >> set_ftrace_filter
遇到 __schedule_bug 函数后关闭 trace
# echo '__schedule_bug:traceoff' > set_ftrace_filter
(3)打开 trace 开关,开始 trace
# echo 1 > tracing_on
(4)提取 trace 结果
[root@myQEMU tracing]# cat trace

[root@myQEMU tracing]#
从 trace 信息我们可以获取很多重要信息:
进程信息,TASK-PID 进程运行的 CPU 执行函数时的系统状态,包括中断,抢占等状态信息 执行函数的时间戳
function_graph使用方法和function类似,但可以更清晰的展示函数调用关系;
开启堆栈调用:可以跟踪函数被调用流程
[root@myQEMU tracing]# echo 1 > options/func_stack_trace
[root@myQEMU tracing]# cat /cpu.info
[root@myQEMU tracing]# cat trace
# tracer: function

案例2:function_graph
使用方法和function类似,但可以更清晰的展示函数调用关系;
开启堆栈调用,可以查看函数调用子函数堆栈
echo blk_update_request > set_graph_function
echo function_graph > current_tracer
echo 1 > options/func_stack_trace
echo 1 > tracing_on

案例3:事件 trace
Ftrace的跟踪机制主要有两种:函数和tracepoint。
函数,案例1已经做了介绍;
tracepoint,可以理解为linux内核的占位符号,tracepoint可以输出开发者想要的参数,局部变量等。类似于C语言的#if DEBUG部分,不开启的话,不占用任何系统开销;
内核里常遇到以"trace_"开头的函数,比如CFS调度器里de update_curr()函数
static void update_curr(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq)
{
...
update_min_vruntime(cfs_rq);
if (entity_is_task(curr)) {
struct task_struct *curtask = task_of(curr);
trace_sched_stat_runtime(curtask, delta_exec, curr->vruntime);
}
...
}
update_curr()函数使用了一个sched_stat_runtime的tracepoint, 可以在available_events看到;
查询系统支持的事件:
cat available_events |grep sched_stat_runtime
sched:sched_stat_runtime
操作过程:
echo 0 > tracing_on
echo > trace
echo sched:sched_stat_runtime > set_event
echo 1 > tracing_on
#或者直接进入时间目录,等价操作:
cd /tracing/events/sched/sched_switch
echo 1 enable
cat /tracing/trace
格式解析:
[root@myQEMU sched_stat_runtime]# cat format
name: sched_stat_runtime
ID: 208
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:char comm[16]; offset:8; size:16; signed:0;
field:pid_t pid; offset:24; size:4; signed:1;
field:u64 runtime; offset:32; size:8; signed:0;
field:u64 vruntime; offset:40; size:8; signed:0;
print fmt: "comm=%s pid=%d runtime=%Lu [ns] vruntime=%Lu [ns]", REC->comm, REC->pid, (unsigned long long)REC->runtime, (unsigned long long)REC->vruntime
[root@myQEMU sched_stat_runtime]#
sched_stat_runtime这个tracepoint有八个域,前4个是通用域,后4个是tracepoint支持域;
cd events/sched/sched_stat_runtime
echo 'comm ~ "sh*"' > filter ///跟踪所有sh开头的进程
130 echo 'pid == 2288' >> filter ///跟踪PID=2288的进程
支持类似C语言的表达式对时间进行过滤。

添加一个事件
内核各个子系统已经有大量的tracepoint,如果不够,还可以手工添加一个; 在include/trace/events/sched.h添加一个sched_stat_my_runtime的tracepoint 内核提供了宏来方便添加;
DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS(sched_stat_my_runtime,
TP_PROTO(struct task_struct *tsk, u64 vruntime),
TP_ARGS(tsk, vruntime),
TP_STRUCT__entry(
__array( char, comm, TASK_COMM_LEN )
__field( pid_t, pid )
__field( u64, vruntime )
),
TP_fast_assign(
memcpy(__entry->comm, tsk->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN);
__entry->pid = tsk->pid;
__entry->vruntime = vruntime;
),
TP_printk("comm=%s pid=%d minvruntime=%Lu [ns]",
__entry->comm, __entry->pid,
(unsigned long long)__entry->vruntime)
);
DEFINE_EVENT(sched_stat_my_runtime, sched_stat_my_runtime,
TP_PROTO(struct task_struct *tsk, u64 vruntime),
TP_ARGS(tsk, vruntime));

除了DEFINE_EVENT,还可以使用DEFINE_EVENT_CONDITION()定义一个带条件的tracepoint. 如果要定义多个格式相同的tracepoint,可以用DEFINE_EVENT_CLASS()减少代码量;
注:内核提供了一个tracepoint的例子,samples/trace_events/目录中;可以配置CONFIG_samples,CONFIG_SAMPLE_TRACE_EVENTS,编译成模块,加载测试;
案例4:irqs跟踪器
当关闭中断时,CPU不能响应外部事件,如果此时有中断发生,只能在下一次开中断时,才能响应这个外部事件,这段延迟叫“中断延迟”。 ftrace提供irqsoff来跟踪这个延迟;
[root@myQEMU tracing]# echo 0 tracing_on
0 tracing_on
[root@myQEMU tracing]# echo 0 > trace
[root@myQEMU tracing]# echo 0 options/func-trace ///关闭function-trace可以减少一些延迟
0 options/func-trace
[root@myQEMU tracing]# echo irqsoff > current_tracer
[root@myQEMU tracing]# echo 1 > tracing_on
[root@myQEMU tracing]# echo 0 > tracing_on
跟踪结果:

案例5:trace marker
trace_marker是一个文件节点,允许用户写入字符串,ftrace会记录写入动作的时间戳; (1)由于trace_marker是写内存,速度很快,避免串口的长耗时; (2)可以配合内核的event,跟踪两个trace marker之间,内核的运行状况;
这个可以用来跟踪分析应用程序; 测试代码:

PS:实际上android的atrace和Trace类,就是基于trace marker实现的;
案例6 wakeup
追踪普通进程从被唤醒到真正得到执行之间的延迟。
echo wakeup > current_tracer
echo 1 > tracing_on
cat trace |head -40
案例7 wakeup-rt
跟踪rt进程,从被唤醒到执行的延迟;
echo 0 > tracing_on
echo > trace
echo wakeup_rt > current_tracer
echo 1 > tracing_on
cat trace |head -40
当然也可以用脚本来执行这些过程,结果保存到文本:
#!/bin/sh
TRACE_PATH=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo nop > $TRACE_PATH/current_tracer
echo 0 >$TRACE_PATH/tracing_on
echo >$TRACE_PATH/trace
echo 0 > $TRACE_PATH/max_graph_depth
echo $$
#echo $$ > $TRACE_PATH/set_ftrace_pid
echo function_graph > $TRACE_PATH/current_tracer
echo 'blk_update_request' > $TRACE_PATH/set_graph_function
echo 1 > options/func_stack_trace
echo 1 > $TRACE_PATH/tracing_on
exec "$@"
3.实用案例:跟踪某个进程的相关函数
实际调试:
如果能把环形队列的数据,写入磁盘,供后续分析,更有现实意义;通过脚本实现? 案例: 跟踪指定进程函数调用
#!/bin/bash
debugfs=/sys/kernel/debug
echo nop > $debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
echo 0 > $debugfs/tracing/tracing_on
echo `pidof a.out` > $debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_pid
echo function_graph > $debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
echo vfs_read > $debugfs/tracing/set_graph_function
echo 1 > $debugfs/tracing/tracing_on
案例: 当内核log打印输出"min_adj 0"时,保存ftrace信息和kernel log信息到指定目录中:
#!/bin/sh
mkdir -p /data/
echo 8 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
echo -1000 > /proc/self/oom_score_adj
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo 0 > trcing_on
echo 0 > trace
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/oom/oom_score_adj_update/enable
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/vmscan/mm_shrink_slab_start/enable
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/vmscan/mm_shrink_slab_end/enable
#开始采集
echo 1 > tracing_on
TIMES=0
while true
do
dmesg |grep "min_adj 0"
if [ $? -eq 0]
then
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace > /data/ftrace_.$TIMES
dmesg > /data/kmsg.txt.$TIMES
let TIMES+=1
dmesg -cat
echo > trace
fi
sleep 2
done
trace_cmd和kernelshark
这一组工具,实际上是将上面ftrace的过程,采集记录下来数据,然后图形展示,提供更直观的分析;
trace_cmd,使用遵循reset->record->stop->report模式,简单说用trace_cmd record采集数据,按"ctrl+c"停止采集,在当前目录生成trace.dat文件;用trace-cmd report可以解析trace.dat文件,不过是文字形式的。
下载编译trace-cmd:
git clone https://github.com/rostedt/trace-cmd.git
export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
export ARCH=arm64
make
kernelshark,可以将trace.dat文件图形化,方便观察和分析;
实现原理:
Ftrace的设计目标简单,本质上是一种静态代码插装技术,不需要支持某种编程接口让用户自定义 trace 行为。静态代码插装技术更加可靠,不会因为用户的不当使用而导致内核崩溃。 ftrace 代码量很小,稳定可靠。同时Ftrace 有重大的创新:
Ftrace 只需要在函数入口插入一个外部调用:mcount Ftrace 巧妙的拦截了函数返回的地址,从而可以在运行时先跳到一个事先准备好的统一出口,记录各类信息,然后再返回原来的地址 Ftrace 在链接完成以后,把所有插入点地址都记录到一张表中,然后默认把所有插入点都替换成为空指令(nop),因此默认情况下 Ftrace 的开销几乎是 0 Ftrace 可以在运行时根据需要通过 Sysfs 接口使能和使用,即使在没有第三方工具的情况下也可以方便使用
