Hi,
I updated the whitelist case
(http://sourceware.org/ml/systemtap/2006-q4/msg00143.html)
and tested the probe points in current tapset and kernel functiosns.
Here are the results on my ppc64 box:
For current tapset:
920 probes.all -- initial probe points to be tested
0 probes.failed -- causing crash and unrecorded in probe.out
455 probes.passed -- whitelist,for those recorded at least once
465 probes.untriggered -- probed without crash but unrecorded
For all kernel.function("*") probe points:
13119 probes.all
100 probes.failed (more iterations shows "_read_lock" causes this crash)
2415 probes.passed
10604 probes.untriggered
Usages:
0) Please jump to 6) directly if you use all default settings
1) Define your list of probe points in a file named "probes.all";
otherwise, it will be automatically extracted from
stap -p2 -e 'probe kernel.function("*"){}
2) Define your own workloads by changing the "benchs" list variable;
otherwise, several LTP testcases will be used
3) Define how may times you want the test to be iterated by changing
MAX_RUNNING_LEVEL variable; otherwise, 3 is the default
4) Define the group size for different iteration level by changing
proper_current_size() function; otherwise, they will be set in
a decreasing order based on the length of probes.all
5) Remove /stp_genwhitelist_running if you want to start a test from
the beginning after a system crash
6) Start a test:
runtest whitelist.exp
The coverage of probe points is still a problem. For tapset, there
are a lot of syscalls and NFS/RPC server probe points untriggered.
The total coverage is 50% for tapset and 18.4% for all kernel
functions(probe points in bug 3441 are removed).
Any idea? Thanks.
