Add ctf_sequence_hex() macro #5

eepp · 2015-06-30T23:46:33Z

This patch adds the _elem_type_base parameter to
the internal _ctf_sequence_encoded() macro to
specify the sequence's element type's base.

ctf_sequence_hex() sets the _elem_type_base
parameter to 16.

This is convenient for recording byte buffers and
viewing them in hexadecimal.

At the end of the command handling, `handle_pending_statedump` is called. Multiple variables from the `sock_info` struct are checked outside the UST lock at that point. lttng-ust-comm.c +1406: /* * Performed delayed statedump operations outside of the UST * lock. We need to take the dynamic loader lock before we take * the UST lock internally within handle_pending_statedump(). */ handle_pending_statedump(sock_info); Namely: registration_done statedump_pending initial_statedump_done `statedump_pending` is set during the enable command (`lttng_session_statedump`, lttng-events.c +631) in the same thread. As for `registration_done` and `initial_statedump_done` they are invariant from the registration of the app until `lttng_ust_cleanup` is called. `cleanup_sock_info` called by `lttng_ust_cleanup`, itself called by `lttng_ust_exit` resets the `registration_done` and `initial_statedump_done` fields. Note that these operations are done outside of the listener thread. Note that by that point `lttng_ust_exit` expects all "getters" on `sock_info` to fail while trying to acquire the UST lock due to `lttng_ust_comm_should_quit` set to 1. Note that the listener threads can still exist because we do not join them, we only execute pthread_cancel which is async. Clearly we are missing mutual exclusion provided by locking when accessing `registration_done` and `initial_statedump_done`. Solution ======== Here we can do better and simply not require any mutual exclusion based on locking. `registration_done` and `initial_statedump_done` only need to be reset to zero when we are not actually exiting (`lttng_ust_after_fork_child`). In this case, no concurrent listener thread exists at that point that could access those fields during the reset. Hence we can move the reset to only the non-exiting code path and alleviate the current situation. Known drawbacks =============== None.

However, building with LTTNG_UST_ALLOCATE_COMPOUND_LITERAL_ON_HEAP defined still results in the crash. When LTTNG_UST_ALLOCATE_COMPOUND_LITERAL_ON_HEAP is defined, the lttng_ust_event_field lttng_ust__event_fields__[...] structure is initialized by dynamically-allocating field structures for the various fields. As the initialization can't be performed statically, it is performed at run-time _after_ the execution of the library constructors has completed. Moreover, the generated initialization function of the provider (lttng_ust__events_init__[...]) is declared as being a library constructor. Hence, this causes it to run before the tracepoint fields structures has a chance to be initialized. This all results in a NULL pointer dereference during the validation of the fields. Solution ======== When building providers as C++, the initialization function is defined as the constructor of a class. This class is, in turn, instantiated in an anonymous namespace. For the purposes of this patch, the use of an anonymous namespace is equivalent to declaring the instance as 'static', but it is preferred in C++11. Known drawbacks =============== None.
