| H A D | blktrace_api.h | ca1136c9 Wed Jul 12 13:49:53 CDT 2017 Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> blktrace: export cgroup info in trace
Currently blktrace isn't cgroup aware. blktrace prints out task name of
current context, but the task of current context isn't always in the
cgroup where the BIO comes from. We can't use task name to find out IO
cgroup. For example, Writeback BIOs always comes from flusher thread but
the BIOs are for different blk cgroups. Request could be requeued and
dispatched from completely different tasks. MD/DM are another examples.
This patch tries to fix the gap. We print out cgroup fhandle info in
blktrace. Userspace can use open_by_handle_at() syscall to find the
cgroup by fhandle. Or userspace can use name_to_handle_at() syscall to
find fhandle for a cgroup and use a BPF program to filter out blktrace
for a specific cgroup.
We add a new 'blk_cgroup' trace option for blk tracer. It's default off.
Application which doesn't know the new option isn't affected. When it's
on, we output fhandle info right after blk_io_trace with an extra bit
set in event action. So from application point of view, blktrace with
the option will output new actions.
I didn't change blk trace event yet, since I'm not sure if changing the
trace event output is an ABI issue. If not, I'll do it later.
