While this represented a huge step forward, the root cause was not that is accessible to non-expert users. The auto-analysis fulfill this gap by parsing the trace timerlat runs, printing an intuitive auto-analysis.

This patch goes a step forward in the automaton of the scheduling latency analysis by providing a summary of the root cause of a latency higher than the passed "stop tracing" parameter if the trace stops. The output is intuitive enough for non-expert users to have a general idea of the root cause by looking at each factor's contribution percentage while keeping the technical detail in the output for more expert users to start an in dept debug or to correlate a root cause with an existing one. The terminology is in line with recent industry and academic publications to facilitate the understanding of both audiences. Here is one example of tool output: ----------------------------------------- %< ----------------------------------------------------- # taskset -c 0 timerlat -a 40 -c 1-23 -q Timer Latency 0 00:00:12 | IRQ Timer Latency (us) | Thread Timer Latency (us) CPU COUNT | cur min avg max | cur min avg max 1 #12322 | 0 0 1 15 | 10 3 9 31 2 #12322 | 3 0 1 12 | 10 3 9 23 3 #12322 | 1 0 1 21 | 8 2 8 34 4 #12322 | 1 0 1 17 | 10 2 11 33 5 #12322 | 0 0 1 12 | 8 3 8 25 6 #12322 | 1 0 1 14 | 16 3 11 35 7 #12322 | 0 0 1 14 | 9 2 8 29 8 #12322 | 1 0 1 22 | 9 3 9 34 9 #12322 | 0 0 1 14 | 8 2 8 24 10 #12322 | 1 0 0 12 | 9 3 8 24 11 #12322 | 0 0 0 15 | 6 2 7 29 12 #12321 | 1 0 0 13 | 5 3 8 23 13 #12319 | 0 0 1 14 | 9 3 9 26 14 #12321 | 1 0 0 13 | 6 2 8 24 15 #12321 | 1 0 1 15 | 12 3 11 27 16 #12318 | 0 0 1 13 | 7 3 10 24 17 #12319 | 0 0 1 13 | 11 3 9 25 18 #12318 | 0 0 0 12 | 8 2 8 20 19 #12319 | 0 0 1 18 | 10 2 9 28 20 #12317 | 0 0 0 20 | 9 3 8 34 21 #12318 | 0 0 0 13 | 8 3 8 28 22 #12319 | 0 0 1 11 | 8 3 10 22 23 #12320 | 28 0 1 28 | 41 3 11 41 rtla timerlat hit stop tracing ## CPU 23 hit stop tracing, analyzing it ## IRQ handler delay: 27.49 us (65.52 %) IRQ latency: 28.13 us Timerlat IRQ duration: 9.59 us (22.85 %) Blocking thread: 3.79 us (9.03 %) objtool:49256 3.79 us Blocking thread stacktrace -> timerlat_irq -> __hrtimer_run_queues -> hrtimer_interrupt -> __sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt -> _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore -> cgroup_rstat_flush_locked -> cgroup_rstat_flush_irqsafe -> mem_cgroup_flush_stats -> mem_cgroup_wb_stats -> balance_dirty_pages -> balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_flags -> btrfs_buffered_write -> btrfs_do_write_iter -> vfs_write -> __x64_sys_pwrite64 -> do_syscall_64 -> entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thread latency: 41.96 us (100%) The system has exit from idle latency!

This can be caused by the current thread masking interrupts, which can be seen in the blocking thread stacktrace: the current thread (objtool:49256) disabled interrupts via raw spin lock operations inside mem cgroup, while doing write syscall in a btrfs file system. A simple search for the function name on Google shows that this is a legit case for disabling the interrupts: cgroup: Use irqsave in cgroup_rstat_flush_locked() lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20220301122143.1521823-2-bigeasy@linutronix.de/ The output also prints other reasons for the latency root cause, such as: - an IRQ that happened before the IRQ handler that caused delays - The interference from NMI, IRQ, Softirq, and Threads The details about how these factors affect the scheduling latency can be found here: https://bristot.me/demystifying-the-real-time-linux-latency/ Cc: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Jonathan Corbet Signed-off-by: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira --- tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 44 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c index 334271935222..eea5b3357e27 100644 --- a/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c +++ b/tools/tracing/rtla/src/timerlat_top.c @@ -10,10 +10,12 @@ #include #include #include +#include #include "utils.h" #include "osnoise.h" #include "timerlat.h" +#include "timerlat_aa.h" struct timerlat_top_params { char *cpus;
