Mathieu Desnoyers [Thu, 11 Nov 2021 19:06:08 +0000 (14:06 -0500)] 
Protocol bump from 9 to 10

Bump LTTNG_UST_ABI_MAJOR_VERSION from 9 to 10, but keep backward
compatibility unchanged (oldest compatible 8) for applications linked
against older liblttng-ust.

With this protocol bump, we can send a 64-bit "id" in the event
registration reply. We keep the 32-bit event id field for now, until we
can proceed to bump the oldest compatible major number.

The 64-bit id field is useful for events within "counter" channels, but
there is no point in keeping a 32-bit value solely for the ring buffer
channel.

Mathieu Desnoyers [Thu, 2 May 2024 14:41:49 +0000 (10:41 -0400)] 
fix: handle EINTR correctly in get_cpu_mask_from_sysfs

If the read() in get_cpu_mask_from_sysfs() fails with EINTR, the code is
supposed to retry, but the while loop condition has (bytes_read > 0),
which is false when read() fails with EINTR. The result is that the code
exits the loop, having only read part of the string.

Use (bytes_read != 0) in the while loop condition instead, since the
(bytes_read < 0) case is already handled in the loop.

6 months agoIntroduce LTTNG_UST_MAP_POPULATE_POLICY environment variable
Mathieu Desnoyers [Wed, 20 Mar 2024 20:47:39 +0000 (16:47 -0400)] 
Introduce LTTNG_UST_MAP_POPULATE_POLICY environment variable

Problem Statement
-----------------

commit 4d4838bad480 ("Use MAP_POPULATE to reduce pagefault when available")
was first introduced in tag v2.11.0 and never backported to stable
branches. Its purpose was to reduce the tracer fast-path latency caused
by handling minor page faults the first time a given application writes
to each page of the ring buffer after mapping them. The discussion
thread leading to this commit can be found here [1]. When using
LTTng-UST for diagnosing real-time applications with very strict
constraints, this added latency is unwanted.

That commit introduced the MAP_POPULATE flag when mapping the ring
buffer pages, which causes the kernel to pre-populate the page table
entries (PTE).

This has, however, unintended consequences for the following scenarios:

* Short-lived applications which write very little to the ring buffer end
  up taking more time to start, because of the time it takes to
  pre-populate all the ring buffer pages, even though they typically won't
  be used by the application.

* Containerized workloads using cpusets will also end up having longer
  application startup time than strictly required, and will populate
  PTE for ring buffers of CPUs which are not present in the cpuset.

There are, therefore, two sets of irreconcilable requirements:
short-lived and containerized workloads benefit from lazily populating
the PTE, whereas real-time workloads benefit from pre-populating them.

This will therefore require a tunable environment variable that will let
the end-user choose the behavior for each application.

Solution
--------

Allow users to specify whether they want to pre-populate
shared memory pages within the application with an environment
variable.

LTTNG_UST_MAP_POPULATE_POLICY
    If set, override the policy used to populate shared memory pages within the
    application. The expected values are:

    none
        Do not pre-populate any pages, take minor faults on first access while
        tracing.

    cpu_possible
        Pre-populate pages for all possible CPUs in the system, as listed by
        /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible.

    Default: none. If the policy is unknown, use the default.

Choice of the default
---------------------

Given that users with strict real-time constraints already have to setup
their tracing with specific options (see the "--read-timer"
lttng-enable-channel(3) option [2]), it makes sense that the default
is to lazily populate the ring buffer PTE, and require users with
real-time constraints to explicitly enable the pre-populate through an
environment variable.

Effect on default behavior
--------------------------

The default behavior for ring buffer PTE mapping will be changing across
LTTng-UST versions in the following way:

- 2.10 and earlier: lazily populate PTE,
- 2.11-2.13: pre-populate PTE,
- 2.14: lazily populate PTE.

LTTng-UST 2.14 will revert back to the 2.10 lazy populate scheme by
default.

Cause
=====

When the use of `LTTNG_UST_APP_PATH` was introduced[1], no default
value for `ust_app_port` was set. In the case where
`LTTNG_UST_APP_PATH` is not set in the environment the condition for
starting with the `ust_app_port` is still checked, causing the
following exception:

```

```

Solution
========

Provide a known default value for `ust_app_port`.

Known drawbacks
===============

None.

trigger infinite recursion by calling the memory allocator wrapper
functions, which can happen with global-dynamic.

Considering that the libc wrapper is meant to be loaded with LD_PRELOAD
anyway (never with dlopen(3)), we always expect the libc to have enough
space to hold the malloc_nesting variable.

In addition to change the malloc_nesting from global-dynamic to
initial-exec, this removes the URCU TLS compatibility layer from the
libc wrapper, which is a good thing: this compatibility layer relies
on pthread key and calloc internally, which makes it a bad fit for TLS
accesses guarding access to malloc wrappers, due to possible infinite

have a way to trace the tracer (lttng-sessiond). This also fits with
the work done lately to namespace lttng-ust.

The LTTNG_HOME environment variable is used by lttng-sessiond to setup
the whole tracing environment for the application to be traced. When
lttng-ust is loaded by the lttng-sessiond to be traced, the fact that it
reuse the `LTTNG_HOME` set for the lttng-sessiond prevent us from
specifying an external lttng-sessiond home.

Albeit it could be possible for the lttng-sessiond to "trace" itself
(self tracing), it make more sense, in our testing environment, to have
a supplementary lttng-sessiond handling the tracing of the
lttng-sessiond under testing.

Note that some work will be carried to limit the use of LTTNG_HOME to
setup the tracing environment by lttng-sessiond and liblttng-ctl APIs
but it will be a long effort. Providing `LTTNG_UST_HOME` allows us to
start dogfooding today.

`LTTNG_HOME` is still used as a fallback to `LTTNG_UST_HOME` to preserve
backward compatibility.

then we could think that memory operations on the `plibc_func' pointers can
be safely done without atomics.

However, consider what would happen if a load to a`plibc_func' pointer
is torn apart by the compiler. Then a thread could see:

  1) NULL

  2) The stored value as returned by a dlsym() call

  3) A mix of 1) and 2)

The same goes for other optimizations that a compiler is authorized to
do (e.g. store tearing, load fusing).

One could question whether such race condition is even possible for the
clone(2) wrapper. Indeed, a thread must be cloned to get into
existence. Therefore, the main thread would always store the value of
`plibc_func' at least once before creating the first sibling thread,
preventing any possible race condition for this wrapper. However, this
assume that the main thread will not call the clone system call directly
before calling the libc wrapper! Thus, to be on the safe side, we do the
same for the clone wrapper.

Fix the race conditions by using the uatomic_read/uatomic_set functions,
on access to `plibc_func' pointers.

Fix: use unaligned pointer accesses for lttng_inline_memcpy

lttng_inline_memcpy receives pointers which can be unaligned. This
causes issues (traps) specifically on arm 32-bit with 8-byte strings
(including \0).

Use unaligned pointer accesses for loads/stores within
lttng_inline_memcpy instead.

There is an impact on code generation on some architectures.  Using the
following test code on godbolt.org:

void copy16_aligned(void *dest, void *src) {
    *(uint16_t *)dest = *(uint16_t *) src;
}

void copy16_unaligned(void *dest, void *src) {
    STORE_UNALIGNED_INT(uint16_t, dest, LOAD_UNALIGNED_INT(uint16_t, src));
}

void copy32_aligned(void *dest, void *src) {
    *(uint32_t *)dest = *(uint32_t *) src;
}

void copy32_unaligned(void *dest, void *src) {
    STORE_UNALIGNED_INT(uint32_t, dest, LOAD_UNALIGNED_INT(uint32_t, src));
}

void copy64_aligned(void *dest, void *src) {
    *(uint64_t *)dest = *(uint64_t *) src;
}

void copy64_unaligned(void *dest, void *src) {
    STORE_UNALIGNED_INT(uint64_t, dest, LOAD_UNALIGNED_INT(uint64_t, src));
}

The resulting assembler (gcc 12.2.0 in -O2) between aligned and
unaligned:

- x86-32: unchanged.
- x86-64: unchanged.
- powerpc32: unchanged.
- powerpc64: unchanged.
- arm32: 16 and 32-bit copy: unchanged. Added code for 64-bit unaligned copy.
- aarch64: unchanged.
- mips32: added code for unaligned.
- mips64: added code for unaligned.
- riscv: added code for unaligned.

If we want to improve the situation on mips and riscv, this would
require introducing a new "lttng_inline_integer_copy" and expose
additional ring buffer client APIs in addition to event_write() which
take integers as inputs. Let's not introduce that complexity yet until
it is justified.

ust-ctl: allow runtime version checks

Officially, building (and dynamically linking) mismatching LTTng-UST
and LTTng-tools versions is unsupported.

At build time, LTTng-tools ensures that both versions match. However, it
remains possible for a user to mistakenly deploy LTTng-tools built
againt liblttng-ust-ctl v2.x and liblttng-ust-ctl.so from a different
LTTng-UST release. Since the soname major version of liblttng-ust-ctl is
not bumped at every release, this would allow LTTng-tools binary to
load.

In practice, this is unlikely to work since new symbols are introduced
at almost every release cycle. However, it isn't guaranteed.

In the case of a recent change -- removing the underscore prefix of
enumeration mappings used by a variant -- we don't change the ABI, but
we rely on the LTTNG_UST_ABI_MAJOR_VERSION to indicate whether or not
the fix is present to change the interpretation of existing fields.

Adding lttng_ust_ctl_get_version() provides an additional safety net
to check, at runtime, that the version of liblttng-ust-ctl.so that
is loaded matches that of LTTng-tools.

Technically, only major and minor versions are necessary. I propose
including the patchlevel version for future-proofing should we want to
work around known bugs in the future.

22 months agodynamic-type: remove underscore prefix from mapping names
Jérémie Galarneau [Fri, 29 Jul 2022 19:32:57 +0000 (15:32 -0400)] 
dynamic-type: remove underscore prefix from mapping names

Dynamic types are expressed by LTTng-UST as a variant + its tag.
Currenly (v2.13 and older), the names of the variant's choices and the
enumeration's entries do not match: enumeration entry names are prefixed
with an underscore.

This worked with older versions of LTTng-tools since all fields in the
TSDL metadata were "escaped" by prepending an underscore, causing the
variant choices to match the enumeration mapping names.

Following a rewrite of the TSDL producer, that no longer systematically
prepends an underscore, I noticed this discrepancy.

Newer LTTng-tools versions using the v10 protocol will assume that a
variant field's choices matches its tag's mapping names exactly, while a
work-around for older supported versions (8 and 9) will strip the
leading underscores from the enumeration mapping names when this
specified combination is found.

Note that the "oldest compatible" version remains unchanged as this
change is not ABI breaking.

There is one scenario where this fix can cause problem: running an older
LTTng-tools (e.g. 2.13) linked against a recent LTTng-UST (2.14+). This
configuration is _not_ supported and versions are properly checked at
build time by LTTng-tools.

In that problematic case, the older LTTng-tools would expect the
enumeration mappings to be prefixed with an underscore and produce an
invalid CTF trace.
