Fix following warning: ftrace.c:123:15: warning: symbol 'prepare_ftrace_return' was not declared. Should it be static? Add prototype for asm/ftrace.h Signed-off-by: NSam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Drop extern for all prototypes and adjust alignment of parameters as required after the removal. In a few rare cases adjust linelength to conform to maximum 80 chars, and likewise in a few rare cases adjust alignment of parameters to static functions.

Impact: build fix for non-ftrace architectures Not all archs implement ftrace, and therefore do not have an asm/ftrace.h. This patch corrects the problem. The ftrace_nmi_enter/exit now must be defined for all archs that implement dynamic ftrace. Currently, only x86 does.

Impact: fix crashes that can occur in NMI handlers, if their code is modified Modifying code is something that needs special care. On SMP boxes, if code that is being modified is also being executed on another CPU, that CPU will have undefined results. The dynamic ftrace uses kstop_machine to make the system act like a uniprocessor system. But this does not address NMIs, that can still run on other CPUs. One approach to handle this is to make all code that are used by NMIs not be traced. But NMIs can call notifiers that spread throughout the kernel and this will be very hard to maintain, and the chance of missing a function is very high. The approach that this patch takes is to have the NMIs modify the code if the modification is taking place. The way this works is that just writing to code executing on another CPU is not harmful if what is written is the same as what exists. Two buffers are used: an IP buffer and a "code" buffer. The steps that the patcher takes are: 1) Put in the instruction pointer into the IP buffer and the new code into the "code" buffer. 2) Set a flag that says we are modifying code 3) Wait for any running NMIs to finish. 4) Write the code 5) clear the flag. 6) Wait for any running NMIs to finish. If an NMI is executed, it will also write the pending code. Multiple writes are OK, because what is being written is the same. Then the patcher must wait for all running NMIs to finish before going to the next line that must be patched. This is basically the RCU approach to code modification. Thanks to Ingo Molnar for suggesting the idea, and to Arjan van de Ven for his guidence on what is safe and what is not.

The majority of this patch was created by the following script: *** ASM=arch/sparc/include/asm mkdir -p $ASM git mv include/asm-sparc64/ftrace.h $ASM git rm include/asm-sparc64/* git mv include/asm-sparc/* $ASM sed -ie 's/asm-sparc64/asm/g' $ASM/* sed -ie 's/asm-sparc/asm/g' $ASM/* *** The rest was an update of the top-level Makefile to use sparc for header files when sparc64 is being build. And a small fixlet to pick up the correct unistd.h from sparc64 code. Signed-off-by: NSam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>

Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64 record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.
