2022-09-26tracing/hist: Call hist functions directly via a switch statementSteven Rostedt (Google)1-77/+169
Due to retpolines, indirect calls are much more expensive than direct calls. The histograms have a select set of functions it uses for the histograms, instead of using function pointers to call them, create a hist_fn_call() function that uses a switch statement to call the histogram functions directly. This gives a 13% speedup to the histogram logic. Using the histogram benchmark: Before: # event histogram # # trigger info: hist:keys=delta:vals=hitcount:sort=delta:size=2048 if delta > 0 [active] # { delta: 129 } hitcount: 2213 { delta: 130 } hitcount: 285965 { delta: 131 } hitcount: 1146545 { delta: 132 } hitcount: 5185432 { delta: 133 } hitcount: 19896215 { delta: 134 } hitcount: 53118616 { delta: 135 } hitcount: 83816709 { delta: 136 } hitcount: 68329562 { delta: 137 } hitcount: 41859349 { delta: 138 } hitcount: 46257797 { delta: 139 } hitcount: 54400831 { delta: 140 } hitcount: 72875007 { delta: 141 } hitcount: 76193272 { delta: 142 } hitcount: 49504263 { delta: 143 } hitcount: 38821072 { delta: 144 } hitcount: 47702679 { delta: 145 } hitcount: 41357297 { delta: 146 } hitcount: 22058238 { delta: 147 } hitcount: 9720002 { delta: 148 } hitcount: 3193542 { delta: 149 } hitcount: 927030 { delta: 150 } hitcount: 850772 { delta: 151 } hitcount: 1477380 { delta: 152 } hitcount: 2687977 { delta: 153 } hitcount: 2865985 { delta: 154 } hitcount: 1977492 { delta: 155 } hitcount: 2475607 { delta: 156 } hitcount: 3403612 After: # event histogram # # trigger info: hist:keys=delta:vals=hitcount:sort=delta:size=2048 if delta > 0 [active] # { delta: 113 } hitcount: 272 { delta: 114 } hitcount: 840 { delta: 118 } hitcount: 344 { delta: 119 } hitcount: 25428 { delta: 120 } hitcount: 350590 { delta: 121 } hitcount: 1892484 { delta: 122 } hitcount: 6205004 { delta: 123 } hitcount: 11583521 { delta: 124 } hitcount: 37590979 { delta: 125 } hitcount: 108308504 { delta: 126 } hitcount: 131672461 { delta: 127 } hitcount: 88700598 { delta: 128 } hitcount: 65939870 { delta: 129 } hitcount: 45055004 { delta: 130 } hitcount: 33174464 { delta: 131 } hitcount: 31813493 { delta: 132 } hitcount: 29011676 { delta: 133 } hitcount: 22798782 { delta: 134 } hitcount: 22072486 { delta: 135 } hitcount: 17034113 { delta: 136 } hitcount: 8982490 { delta: 137 } hitcount: 2865908 { delta: 138 } hitcount: 980382 { delta: 139 } hitcount: 1651944 { delta: 140 } hitcount: 4112073 { delta: 141 } hitcount: 3963269 { delta: 142 } hitcount: 1712508 { delta: 143 } hitcount: 575941 { delta: 144 } hitcount: 351427 { delta: 145 } hitcount: 218077 { delta: 146 } hitcount: 167297 { delta: 147 } hitcount: 146198 { delta: 148 } hitcount: 116122 { delta: 149 } hitcount: 58993 { delta: 150 } hitcount: 40228 The delta above is in nanoseconds.

2022-07-12tracing/histograms: Simplify create_hist_fields()Zheng Yejian1-3/+2
When I look into implements of create_hist_fields(), I think there can be following two simplifications: 1. If something wrong happened in parse_var_defs(), free_var_defs() would have been called in it, so no need goto free again after calling it; 2. After calling create_key_fields(), regardless of the value of 'ret', it then always runs into 'out: ', so the judge of 'ret' is redundant.

2022-07-12tracing/histograms: Fix memory leak problemZheng Yejian1-0/+2
This reverts commit 46bbe5c671e06f070428b9be142cc4ee5cedebac. As commit 46bbe5c671e0 ("tracing: fix double free") said, the "double free" problem reported by clang static analyzer is: > In parse_var_defs() if there is a problem allocating > var_defs.expr, the earlier var_defs.name is freed. > This free is duplicated by free_var_defs() which frees > the rest of the list. However, if there is a problem allocating N-th var_defs.expr: + in parse_var_defs(), the freed 'earlier var_defs.name' is actually the N-th var_defs.name; + then in free_var_defs(), the names from 0th to (N-1)-th are freed; IF ALLOCATING PROBLEM HAPPENED HERE!!! -+ \ | 0th 1th (N-1)-th N-th V +-------------+-------------+-----+-------------+----------- var_defs: | name | expr | name | expr | ... | name | expr | name | /// +-------------+-------------+-----+-------------+----------- These two frees don't act on same name, so there was no "double free" problem before. Conversely, after that commit, we get a "memory leak" problem because the above "N-th var_defs.name" is not freed. If enable CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK and inject a fault at where the N-th var_defs.expr allocated, then execute on shell like: $ echo 'hist:key=call_site:val=$v1,$v2:v1=bytes_req,v2=bytes_alloc' > \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger Then kmemleak reports: unreferenced object 0xffff8fb100ef3518 (size 8): comm "bash", pid 196, jiffies 4295681690 (age 28.538s) hex dump (first 8 bytes): 76 31 00 00 b1 8f ff ff v1...... backtrace: [<0000000038fe4895>] kstrdup+0x2d/0x60 [<00000000c99c049a>] event_hist_trigger_parse+0x206f/0x20e0 [<00000000ae70d2cc>] trigger_process_regex+0xc0/0x110 [<0000000066737a4c>] event_trigger_write+0x75/0xd0 [<000000007341e40c>] vfs_write+0xbb/0x2a0 [<0000000087fde4c2>] ksys_write+0x59/0xd0 [<00000000581e9cdf>] do_syscall_64+0x3a/0x80 [<00000000cf3b065c>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220711014731.69520-1-zhengyejian1@huawei.com Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 46bbe5c671e0 ("tracing: fix double free") Reported-by: Hulk Robot <hulkci@huawei.com> Suggested-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Reviewed-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Zheng Yejian <zhengyejian1@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

2022-05-26tracing: Fix potential double free in create_var_ref()Keita Suzuki1-0/+3
In create_var_ref(), init_var_ref() is called to initialize the fields of variable ref_field, which is allocated in the previous function call to create_hist_field(). Function init_var_ref() allocates the corresponding fields such as ref_field->system, but frees these fields when the function encounters an error. The caller later calls destroy_hist_field() to conduct error handling, which frees the fields and the variable itself. This results in double free of the fields which are already freed in the previous function. Fix this by storing NULL to the corresponding fields when they are freed in init_var_ref().

2022-04-27tracing: Replace usage of found with dedicated list iterator variableJakob Koschel1-8/+7
To move the list iterator variable into the list_for_each_entry_*() macro in the future it should be avoided to use the list iterator variable after the loop body. To *never* use the list iterator variable after the loop it was concluded to use a separate iterator variable instead of a found boolean [1]. This removes the need to use a found variable and simply checking if the variable was set, can determine if the break/goto was hit.

2022-04-26tracing: Remove logic for registering multiple event triggers at a timeTom Zanussi1-11/+6
Code for registering triggers assumes it's possible to register more than one trigger at a time. In fact, it's unimplemented and there doesn't seem to be a reason to do that. Remove the n_registered param from event_trigger_register() and fix up callers. Doing so simplifies the logic in event_trigger_register to the point that it just becomes a wrapper calling event_command.reg(). It also removes the problematic call to event_command.unreg() in case of failure. A new function, event_trigger_unregister() is also added for callers to call themselves. The changes to trace_events_hist.c simply allow compilation; a separate patch follows which updates the hist triggers to work correctly with the new changes.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - New user_events interface. User space can register an event with the kernel describing the format of the event. Then it will receive a byte in a page mapping that it can check against. A privileged task can then enable that event like any other event, which will change the mapped byte to true, telling the user space application to start writing the event to the tracing buffer. - Add new "ftrace_boot_snapshot" kernel command line parameter. When set, the tracing buffer will be saved in the snapshot buffer at boot up when the kernel hands things over to user space. This will keep the traces that happened at boot up available even if user space boot up has tracing as well. - Have TRACE_EVENT_ENUM() also update trace event field type descriptions. Thus if a static array defines its size with an enum, the user space trace event parsers can still know how to parse that array. - Add new TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro. This acts the same as the TRACE_EVENT() macro, but will attach to an existing tracepoint. This will make one tracepoint be able to trace different content and not be stuck at only what the original TRACE_EVENT() macro exports. - Fixes to tracing error logging. - Better saving of cmdlines to PIDs when tracing (use the wakeup events for mapping). * tag 'trace-v5.18' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (30 commits) tracing: Have type enum modifications copy the strings user_events: Add trace event call as root for low permission cases tracing/user_events: Use alloc_pages instead of kzalloc() for register pages tracing: Add snapshot at end of kernel boot up tracing: Have TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM affect trace event types as well tracing: Fix strncpy warning in trace_events_synth.c user_events: Prevent dyn_event delete racing with ioctl add/delete tracing: Add TRACE_CUSTOM_EVENT() macro tracing: Move the defines to create TRACE_EVENTS into their own files tracing: Add sample code for custom trace events tracing: Allow custom events to be added to the tracefs directory tracing: Fix last_cmd_set() string management in histogram code user_events: Fix potential uninitialized pointer while parsing field tracing: Fix allocation of last_cmd in last_cmd_set() user_events: Add documentation file user_events: Add sample code for typical usage user_events: Add self-test for validator boundaries user_events: Add self-test for perf_event integration user_events: Add self-test for dynamic_events integration user_events: Add self-test for ftrace integration ...
2022-03-10tracing: Fix last_cmd_set() string management in histogram codeSteven Rostedt (Google)1-2/+4
Using strnlen(dest, str, n) is confusing, as the size of dest must be strlen(dest) + n + 1. Even more confusing, using sizeof(string constant) gives you strlen(string constant) + 1 and not just strlen(). These two together made using strncat() with a constant string a bit off in the calculations as we have: len = sizeof(HIST_PREFIX) + strlen(str) + 1; kfree(last_cmd); last_cmd = kzalloc(len, GFP_KERNEL); strcpy(last_cmd, HIST_PREFIX); len -= sizeof(HIST_PREFIX) + 1; strncat(last_cmd, str, len); The above works if we s/sizeof/strlen/ with HIST_PREFIX (which is defined as "hist:", but because sizeof(HIST_PREFIX) is equal to strlen(HIST_PREFIX) + 1, we can drop the +1 in the code. But at least comment that we are doing so.

2022-03-01tracing/histogram: Fix sorting on old "cpu" valueSteven Rostedt (Google)1-3/+3
When trying to add a histogram against an event with the "cpu" field, it was impossible due to "cpu" being a keyword to key off of the running CPU. So to fix this, it was changed to "common_cpu" to match the other generic fields (like "common_pid"). But since some scripts used "cpu" for keying off of the CPU (for events that did not have "cpu" as a field, which is most of them), a backward compatibility trick was added such that if "cpu" was used as a key, and the event did not have "cpu" as a field name, then it would fallback and switch over to "common_cpu". This fix has a couple of subtle bugs. One was that when switching over to "common_cpu", it did not change the field name, it just set a flag. But the code still found a "cpu" field. The "cpu" field is used for filtering and is returned when the event does not have a "cpu" field. This was found by: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing # echo hist:key=cpu,pid:sort=cpu > events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger # cat events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist Which showed the histogram unsorted: { cpu: 19, pid: 1175 } hitcount: 1 { cpu: 6, pid: 239 } hitcount: 2 { cpu: 23, pid: 1186 } hitcount: 14 { cpu: 12, pid: 249 } hitcount: 2 { cpu: 3, pid: 994 } hitcount: 5 Instead of hard coding the "cpu" checks, take advantage of the fact that trace_event_field_field() returns a special field for "cpu" and "CPU" if the event does not have "cpu" as a field. This special field has the "filter_type" of "FILTER_CPU". Check that to test if the returned field is of the CPU type instead of doing the string compare. Also, fix the sorting bug by testing for the hist_field flag of HIST_FIELD_FL_CPU when setting up the sort routine. Otherwise it will use the special CPU field to know what compare routine to use, and since that special field does not have a size, it returns tracing_map_cmp_none.

2021-12-06tracing: Support __rel_loc relative dynamic data location attributeMasami Hiramatsu1-2/+19
Add '__rel_loc' new dynamic data location attribute which encodes the data location from the next to the field itself. The '__data_loc' is used for encoding the dynamic data location on the trace event record. But '__data_loc' is not useful if the writer doesn't know the event header (e.g. user event), because it records the dynamic data offset from the entry of the record, not the field itself. This new '__rel_loc' attribute encodes the data location relatively from the next of the field. For example, when there is a record like below (the number in the parentheses is the size of fields) |header(N)|common(M)|fields(K)|__data_loc(4)|fields(L)|data(G)| In this case, '__data_loc' field will be __data_loc = (G << 16) | (N+M+K+4+L) If '__rel_loc' is used, this will be |header(N)|common(M)|fields(K)|__rel_loc(4)|fields(L)|data(G)| where __rel_loc = (G << 16) | (L) This case shows L bytes after the '__rel_loc' attribute field, if there is no fields after the __rel_loc field, L must be 0. This is relatively easy (and no need to consider the kernel header change) when the event data fields are composed by user who doesn't know header and common fields.

Calling destroy_hist_field() on an expression will recursively free any operands associated with the expression. If during expression parsing the operands of the expression are already set when an error is encountered, there is no need to explicity free the operands. Doing so will result in destroy_hist_field() being called twice for the operands and lead to a use-after-free (UAF) error. If the operands are associated with the expression, only call destroy_hist_field() on the expression since the operands will be recursively freed.

The string copies to the histogram storage has a max size of 256 bytes (defined by MAX_FILTER_STR_VAL). Only the string size of the event field needs to be copied to the event storage, but no more than what is in the event storage. Although nothing should be bigger than 256 bytes, there's no protection against overwriting of the storage if one day there is. Copy no more than the destination size, and enforce it. Also had to turn MAX_FILTER_STR_VAL into an unsigned int, to keep the min() comparison of the string sizes of comparable types.

Do not copy the fixed-size char array field of the events over the field size. The histogram treats char array as a string and there are 2 types of char array in the event, fixed-size and dynamic string. The dynamic string (__data_loc) field must be null terminated, but the fixed-size char array field may not be null terminated (not a string, but just a data). In that case, histogram can copy the data after the field. This uses the original field size for fixed-size char array field to restrict the histogram not to access over the original field size.

If the divisor is a constant use specific division functions to avoid extra branches when the trigger is hit. If the divisor constant but not a power of 2, the division can be replaced with a multiplication and shift in the following case: Let X = dividend and Y = divisor. Choose Z = some power of 2. If Y <= Z, then: X / Y = (X * (Z / Y)) / Z (Z / Y) is a constant (mult) which is calculated at parse time, so: X / Y = (X * mult) / Z The division by Z can be replaced by a shift since Z is a power of 2: X / Y = (X * mult) >> shift As long, as X < Z the results will not be off by more than 1.

The division is a slow operation. If the divisor is a power of 2, use a shift instead.

Use noinline and volatile to ensure these are not optimized out by the compiler. 2. Create a hist event trigger that uses division: events/kmem/rss_stat$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=size/<divisor>' >> trigger events/kmem/rss_stat$ echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:vals=$x' >> trigger 3. Run Android's lmkd_test[2] to generate rss_stat events, and record CPU samples with Android's simpleperf: simpleperf record -a --exclude-perf --post-unwind=yes -m 16384 -g -f 2000 -o perf.data == Results == Divisor is a power of 2 (divisor == 32): test_hist_field_div_not_optimized | 8,717,091 cpu-cycles test_hist_field_div_optimized | 1,643,137 cpu-cycles If the divisor is a power of 2, the optimized version is ~5.3x faster.

The '-' in .sym-offset can confuse the hist trigger arithmetic expression parsing. Simplify the handling of this by replacing the 'sym-offset' with 'symXoffset'. This allows us to correctly evaluate expressions where the user may have inadvertently added a .sym-offset modifier to one of the operands in an expression, instead of bailing out. In this case the .sym-offset has no effect on the evaluation of the expression. The only valid use of the .sym-offset is as a hist key modifier.

2021-10-26tracing: Fix operator precedence for hist triggers expressionKalesh Singh1-70/+140
The current histogram expression evaluation logic evaluates the expression from right to left. This can lead to incorrect results if the operations are not associative (as is the case for subtraction and, the now added, division operators). e.g. 16-8-4-2 should be 2 not 10 --> 16-8-4-2 = ((16-8)-4)-2 64/8/4/2 should be 1 not 16 --> 64/8/4/2 = ((64/8)/4)/2 Division and multiplication are currently limited to single operation expression due to operator precedence support not yet implemented. Rework the expression parsing to support the correct evaluation of expressions containing operators of different precedences; and fix the associativity error by evaluating expressions with operators of the same precedence from left to right. Examples: (1) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:a=8,b=4,c=2,d=1,w=$a-$b-$c-$d' \ >> event/trigger (2) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=$a/$b/3/2' >> event/trigger (3) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:y=$a+10/$c*1024' >> event/trigger (4) echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:z=$a/$b+$c*$d' >> event/trigger Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20211025200852.3002369-4-kaleshsingh@google.com Signed-off-by: Kalesh Singh <kaleshsingh@google.com> Reviewed-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Adds basic support for division and multiplication operations for hist trigger variable expressions. For simplicity this patch only supports, division and multiplication for a single operation expression (e.g. x=$a/$b), as currently expressions are always evaluated right to left. This can lead to some incorrect results: e.g. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=8-4-2' >> event/trigger 8-4-2 should evaluate to 2 i.e. (8-4)-2 but currently x evaluate to 6 i.e. 8-(4-2) Multiplication and division in sub-expressions will work correctly, once correct operator precedence support is added (See next patch in this series). For the undefined case of division by 0, the histogram expression evaluates to (u64)(-1). Since this cannot be detected when the expression is created, it is the responsibility of the user to be aware and account for this possibility.

Currently hist trigger expressions don't support the use of numeric literals: e.g. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=$y-1234' --> is not valid expression syntax Having the ability to use numeric constants in hist triggers supports a wider range of expressions for creating variables. Add support for creating trace event histogram variables from numeric literals. e.g. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=1234,y=size-1024' >> event/trigger A negative numeric constant is created, using unary minus operator (parentheses are required). e.g. echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:z=-(2)' >> event/trigger Constants can be used with division/multiplication (added in the next patch in this series) to implement granularity filters for frequent trace events. For instance we can limit emitting the rss_stat trace event to when there is a 512KB cross over in the rss size: # Create a synthetic event to monitor instead of the high frequency # rss_stat event echo 'rss_stat_throttled unsigned int mm_id; unsigned int curr; int member; long size' >> tracing/synthetic_events # Create a hist trigger that emits the synthetic rss_stat_throttled # event only when the rss size crosses a 512KB boundary. echo 'hist:keys=keys=mm_id,member:bucket=size/0x80000:onchange($bucket) .rss_stat_throttled(mm_id,curr,member,size)' >> events/kmem/rss_stat/trigger A use case for using constants with addition/subtraction is not yet known, but for completeness the use of constants are supported for all operators.

I don't think this has changed in the past five years, but something probably changed the inlining decisions made by the compiler, so the problem is now made more obvious. Rather than printing the symbol names into separate buffers, it seems we can simply use the special %ps format string modifier to print the pointers symbolically and get rid of both buffers. Marking hist_trigger_stacktrace_print() would be a simpler way of avoiding the warning, but that would not address the excessive stack usage.

Allow common_pid.execname to be saved in a variable in one histogram to be passed to another histogram that can pass it as a parameter to a synthetic event. ># echo 'hist:keys=pid:__arg__1=common_timestamp.usecs:arg2=common_pid.execname' \ > events/sched/sched_waking/trigger ># echo 'wakeup_lat s32 pid; u64 delta; char wake_comm[]' > synthetic_events ># echo 'hist:keys=next_pid:pid=next_pid,delta=common_timestamp.usecs-$__arg__1,exec=$arg2'\ ':onmatch(sched.sched_waking).trace(wakeup_lat,$pid,$delta,$exec)' \ > events/sched/sched_switch/trigger The above is a wake up latency synthetic event setup that passes the execname of the common_pid that woke the task to the scheduling of that task, which triggers a synthetic event that passes the original execname as a parameter to display it. ># echo 1 > events/synthetic/enable ># cat trace <idle>-0 [006] d..4 186.863801: wakeup_lat: pid=1306 delta=65 wake_comm=kworker/u16:3 <idle>-0 [000] d..4 186.863858: wakeup_lat: pid=163 delta=27 wake_comm=<idle> <idle>-0 [001] d..4 186.863903: wakeup_lat: pid=1307 delta=36 wake_comm=kworker/u16:4 <idle>-0 [000] d..4 186.863927: wakeup_lat: pid=163 delta=5 wake_comm=<idle> <idle>-0 [006] d..4 186.863957: wakeup_lat: pid=1306 delta=24 wake_comm=kworker/u16:3 sshd-1306 [006] d..4 186.864051: wakeup_lat: pid=61 delta=62 wake_comm=<idle> <idle>-0 [000] d..4 186.965030: wakeup_lat: pid=609 delta=18 wake_comm=<idle> <idle>-0 [006] d..4 186.987582: wakeup_lat: pid=1306 delta=65 wake_comm=kworker/u16:3 <idle>-0 [000] d..4 186.987639: wakeup_lat: pid=163 delta=27 wake_comm=<idle> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210722142837.458596338@goodmis.org Reviewed-by: Tom Zanussi <zanussi@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2021-08-16tracing: Have histogram types be constant when possibleSteven Rostedt (VMware)1-18/+14
Instead of kstrdup("const", GFP_KERNEL), have the hist_field type simply assign the constant hist_field->type = "const"; And when the value passed to it is a variable, use "kstrdup_const(var, GFP_KERNEL);" which will just copy the value if the variable is already a constant. This saves on having to allocate when not needed. All frees of the hist_field->type will need to use kfree_const().

2021-08-16tracing: Add linear buckets to histogram logicSteven Rostedt (VMware)1-7/+58
There's been several times I wished the histogram logic had a "grouping" feature for the buckets. Currently, each bucket has a size of one. That is, if you trace the amount of requested allocations, each allocation is its own bucket, even if you are interested in what allocates 100 bytes or less, 100 to 200, 200 to 300, etc. Also, without grouping, it fills up the allocated histogram buckets quickly. If you are tracking latency, and don't care if something is 200 microseconds off, or 201 microseconds off, but want to track them by say 10 microseconds each. This can not currently be done. There is a log2 but that grouping get's too big too fast for a lot of cases. Introduce a "buckets=SIZE" command to each field where it will record in a rounded number. For example: ># echo 'hist:keys=bytes_req.buckets=100:sort=bytes_req' > events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger ># cat events/kmem/kmalloc/hist # event histogram # # trigger info: hist:keys=bytes_req.buckets=100:vals=hitcount:sort=bytes_req.buckets=100:size=2048 [active] # { bytes_req: ~ 0-99 } hitcount: 3149 { bytes_req: ~ 100-199 } hitcount: 1468 { bytes_req: ~ 200-299 } hitcount: 39 { bytes_req: ~ 300-399 } hitcount: 306 { bytes_req: ~ 400-499 } hitcount: 364 { bytes_req: ~ 500-599 } hitcount: 32 { bytes_req: ~ 600-699 } hitcount: 69 { bytes_req: ~ 700-799 } hitcount: 37 { bytes_req: ~ 1200-1299 } hitcount: 16 { bytes_req: ~ 1400-1499 } hitcount: 30 { bytes_req: ~ 2000-2099 } hitcount: 6 { bytes_req: ~ 4000-4099 } hitcount: 2168 { bytes_req: ~ 5000-5099 } hitcount: 6 Totals: Hits: 7690 Entries: 13 Dropped: 0 Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210707213921.980359719@goodmis.org Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Tom Zanussi <zanussi@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Tested-by: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
