SubjectRe: [PATCH 5/7] uprobes/perf: Teach trace_uprobe/perf code to pre-filter
* Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> [2013-02-04 20:02:58]:

> Finally implement uprobe_perf_filter() which checks ->nr_systemwide or
> ->perf_events to figure out whether we need to insert the breakpoint.
>
> uprobe_perf_open/close are changed to do uprobe_apply(true/false) when
> the new perf event comes or goes away.
>
> Note that currently this is very suboptimal:
>
> - uprobe_register() called by TRACE_REG_PERF_REGISTER becomes a
> heavy nop, consumer->filter() always returns F at this stage.
>
> As it was already discussed we need uprobe_register_only() to
> avoid the costly register_for_each_vma() when possible.
>
> - uprobe_apply() is oftenly overkill. Unless "nr_systemwide != 0"
> changes we need uprobe_apply_mm(), unapply_uprobe() is almost
> what we need.
>
> - uprobe_apply() can be simply avoided sometimes, see the next
> changes.
>
> Testing:
>
> # perf probe -x /lib/libc.so.6 syscall
>
> # perl -e 'syscall -1 while 1' &
> [1] 530
>
> # perf record -e probe_libc:syscall perl -e 'syscall -1 for 1..10; sleep 1'
>
> # perf report --show-total-period
> 100.00% 10 perl libc-2.8.so [.] syscall
>
> Before this patch:
>
> # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile
> /lib/libc.so.6 syscall 79291
>
> A huge ->nrhit == 79291 reflects the fact that the background process
> 530 constantly hits this breakpoint too, even if doesn't contribute to
> the output.
>
> After the patch:
>
> # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_profile
> /lib/libc.so.6 syscall 10
>
> This shows that only the target process was punished by int3.
