      ftrace: Modify ftrace_set_filter/notrace to take ops · 936e074b
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Since users of the function tracer can now pick and choose which
      functions they want to trace agnostically from other users of the
      function tracer, we need to pass the ops struct to the ftrace_set_filter()
      functions.
      
      The functions ftrace_set_global_filter() and ftrace_set_global_notrace()
      is added to keep the old filter functions which are used to modify
      the generic function tracers.

      ftrace: Allow dynamically allocated function tracers · cdbe61bf
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Now that functions may be selected individually, it only makes sense
      that we should allow dynamically allocated trace structures to
      be traced. This will allow perf to allocate a ftrace_ops structure
      at runtime and use it to pick and choose which functions that
      structure will trace.
      
      Note, a dynamically allocated ftrace_ops will always be called
      indirectly instead of being called directly from the mcount in
      entry.S. This is because there's no safe way to prevent mcount
      from being preempted before calling the function, unless we
      modify every entry.S to do so (not likely). Thus, dynamically allocated
      functions will now be called by the ftrace_ops_list_func() that
      loops through the ops that are allocated if there are more than
      one op allocated at a time. This loop is protected with a
      preempt_disable.
      
      To determine if an ftrace_ops structure is allocated or not, a new
      util function was added to the kernel/extable.c called
      core_kernel_data(), which returns 1 if the address is between
      _sdata and _edata.

      ftrace: Implement separate user function filtering · b848914c
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      ftrace_ops that are registered to trace functions can now be
      agnostic to each other in respect to what functions they trace.
      Each ops has their own hash of the functions they want to trace
      and a hash to what they do not want to trace. A empty hash for
      the functions they want to trace denotes all functions should
      be traced that are not in the notrace hash.

      ftrace: Use counters to enable functions to trace · ed926f9b
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Every function has its own record that stores the instruction
      pointer and flags for the function to be traced. There are only
      two flags: enabled and free. The enabled flag states that tracing
      for the function has been enabled (actively traced), and the free
      flag states that the record no longer points to a function and can
      be used by new functions (loaded modules).
      
      These flags are now moved to the MSB of the flags (actually just
      the top 32bits). The rest of the bits (30 bits) are now used as
      a ref counter. Everytime a tracer register functions to trace,
      those functions will have its counter incremented.
      
      When tracing is enabled, to determine if a function should be traced,
      the counter is examined, and if it is non-zero it is set to trace.
      
      When a ftrace_ops is registered to trace functions, its hashes
      are examined. If the ftrace_ops filter_hash count is zero, then
      all functions are set to be traced, otherwise only the functions
      in the hash are to be traced. The exception to this is if a function
      is also in the ftrace_ops notrace_hash. Then that function's counter
      is not incremented for this ftrace_ops.

      ftrace: Separate hash allocation and assignment · 33dc9b12
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      When filtering, allocate a hash to insert the function records.
      After the filtering is complete, assign it to the ftrace_ops structure.
      
      This allows the ftrace_ops structure to have a much smaller array of
      hash buckets instead of wasting a lot of memory.
      
      A read only empty_hash is created to be the minimum size that any ftrace_ops
      can point to.
      
      When a new hash is created, it has the following steps:
      
      o Allocate a default hash.
      o Walk the function records assigning the filtered records to the hash
      o Allocate a new hash with the appropriate size buckets
      o Move the entries from the default hash to the new hash.

      ftrace: Create a global_ops to hold the filter and notrace hashes · f45948e8
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      Combine the filter and notrace hashes to be accessed by a single entity,
      the global_ops. The global_ops is a ftrace_ops structure that is passed
      to different functions that can read or modify the filtering of the
      function tracer.
      
      The ftrace_ops structure was modified to hold a filter and notrace
      hashes so that later patches may allow each ftrace_ops to have its own
      set of rules to what functions may be filtered.

      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      When multiple users are allowed to have their own set of functions
      to trace, having the FTRACE_FL_FILTER flag will not be enough to
      handle the accounting of those users. Each user will need their own
      set of functions.

      temporary until the rest of the function filtering accounting

      To prepare for the accounting system that will allow multiple users of
      the function tracer, having the FTRACE_FL_NOTRACE as a flag in the
      dyn_trace record does not make sense.
      
      All ftrace_ops will soon have a hash of functions they should trace
      and not trace. By making a global hash of functions not to trace makes
      this easier for the transition.
