BUG_ON() is in no way a substitution of any BUILD_BUG_ON(). BUILD_BUG_ON() is a non intrusive way to see if something isn't lined up correctly, and can fix it before you execute any code. BUG_ON() is the most intrusive way to say something is wrong and you crash the system. Not to mention, when function graph tracing is enabled, this gets triggered for *every* function call! So I do not want any runtime test done. Every nanosecond counts in this code path. If anything, this needs to be moved to initialization and checked once, if it fails, gives a WARN_ON() and disables function graph tracing. -- Steve > > /* Set val to "reserved" with the delta to the new fgraph frame */ > val = (FGRAPH_TYPE_RESERVED << FGRAPH_TYPE_SHIFT) | FGRAPH_FRAME_OFFSET; > diff --git a/kernel/trace/trace.c b/kernel/trace/trace.c > index c3b2c7dfadef1..0f2ec3d30579f 100644 > --- a/kernel/trace/trace.c > +++ b/kernel/trace/trace.c > @@ -2887,7 +2887,7 @@ trace_function(struct trace_array *tr, unsigned long ip, unsigned long > /* Allow 4 levels of nesting: normal, softirq, irq, NMI */ > #define FTRACE_KSTACK_NESTING 4 > > -#define FTRACE_KSTACK_ENTRIES (PAGE_SIZE / FTRACE_KSTACK_NESTING) > +#define FTRACE_KSTACK_ENTRIES (SZ_4K / FTRACE_KSTACK_NESTING) > > struct ftrace_stack { > unsigned long calls[FTRACE_KSTACK_ENTRIES];

I'm afraid this was me being lazy, and there are a couple of other instances where I have done this in other patches that I'll need to fix. Most of the time, I've been able to keep BUILD_BUG_ON() and simply compare against a page size limit. Looking at this again, perhaps the better solution is to define SHADOW_STACK_SIZE as PAGE_SIZE_MIN? Then it remains a compile-time constant. Is there any need for SHADOW_STACK_SIZE to increase with page size? > > Not to mention, when function graph tracing is enabled, this gets triggered > for *every* function call!

I'm hoping my suggestion above to decouple SHADOW_STACK_SIZE from PAGE_SIZE is acceptable and simpler? If not, happy to do as you suggest here.

If not, happy to do as you suggest here. Yeah, I think we can do that. In fact, I'm thinking it should turn into a kmem_cache item that doesn't have to be a power of two (but must be evenly divisible by the size of long). I'll write up a patch. -- Steve

To prepare for supporting boot-time page size selection, refactor code to remove assumptions about PAGE_SIZE being compile-time constant. Code intended to be equivalent when compile-time page size is active. Convert BUILD_BUG_ON() BUG_ON() since the argument depends on PAGE_SIZE and its not trivial to test against a page size limit. Redefine FTRACE_KSTACK_ENTRIES so that "struct ftrace_stacks" is always sized at 32K for 64-bit and 16K for 32-bit. It was previously defined in terms of PAGE_SIZE (and worked out at the quoted sizes for a 4K page size). But for 64K pages, the size expanded to 512K. Given the ftrace stacks should be invariant to page size, this seemed like a waste. As a side effect, it removes the PAGE_SIZE compile-time constant assumption from this code.
