      ftrace: Allow access to the boot time function enabling · 2a85a37f
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      Change set_ftrace_early_filter() to ftrace_set_early_filter()
and make it a global function. This will allow other subsystems
in the kernel to be able to enable function tracing at start
up and reuse the ftrace function parsing code.

      ftrace: Decouple hash items from showing filtered functions · 69a3083c
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The set_ftrace_filter shows "hashed" functions, which are functions
that are added with operations to them (like traceon and traceoff).

As other subsystems may be able to show what functions they are
using for function tracing, the hash items should no longer
be shown just because the FILTER flag is set. As they have nothing
to do with other subsystems filters.

      ftrace: Allow other users of function tracing to use the output listing · fc13cb0c
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The function tracer is set up to allow any other subsystem (like perf)
to use it. Ftrace already has a way to list what functions are enabled
by the global_ops. It would be very helpful to let other users of
the function tracer to be able to use the same code.

      ftrace: Replace record newlist with record page list · 85ae32ae
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      As new functions come in to be initalized from mcount to nop,
they are done by groups of pages. Whether it is the core kernel
or a module. There's no need to keep track of these on a per record
basis.

At startup, and as any module is loaded, the functions to be
traced are stored in a group of pages and added to the function
list at the end. We just need to keep a pointer to the first
page of the list that was added, and use that to know where to
start on the list for initializing functions.

      ftrace: Remove usage of "freed" records · 32082309
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      Records that are added to the function trace table are
permanently there, except for modules. By separating out the
modules to their own pages that can be freed in one shot
we can remove the "freed" flag and simplify some of the record
management.

Another benefit of doing this is that we can also move the
records around; sort them.

      ftrace: Allow archs to modify code without stop machine · c88fd863
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      The stop machine method to modify all functions in the kernel
(some 20,000 of them) is the safest way to do so across all archs.
But some archs may not need this big hammer approach to modify code
on SMP machines, and can simply just update the code it needs.

Adding a weak function arch_ftrace_update_code() that now does the
stop machine, will also let any arch override this method.

If the arch needs to check the system and then decide if it can
avoid stop machine, it can still call ftrace_run_stop_machine() to
use the old method.

      ftrace: Do not function trace inlined functions · 45959ee7
      由 Steven Rostedt 提交于 
      When gcc inlines a function, it does not mark it with the mcount
prologue, which in turn means that inlined functions are not traced
by the function tracer. But if CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set, then
gcc is allowed not to inline a function that is marked inline.

Depending on the options and the compiler, a function may or may
not be traced by the function tracer, depending on whether gcc
decides to inline a function or not. This has caused several
problems in the pass becaues gcc is not always consistent with
what it decides to inline between different gcc versions.

Some places should not be traced (like paravirt native_* functions)
and these are mostly marked as inline. When gcc decides not to
inline the function, and if that function should not be traced, then
the ftrace function tracer will suddenly break when it use to work
fine. This becomes even harder to debug when different versions of
gcc will not inline that function, making the same kernel and config
work for some gcc versions and not work for others.

By making all functions marked inline to not be traced will remove
the ambiguity that gcc adds when it comes to tracing functions marked
inline. All gcc versions will be consistent with what functions are
traced and having volatile working code will be removed.

Note, only the inline macro when CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set needs
to have notrace added, as the attribute __always_inline will force
the function to be inlined and then not traced.

      perf: Fix loss of notification with multi-event · 10c6db11
      由 Peter Zijlstra 提交于 
      When you do:
        $ perf record -e cycles,cycles,cycles noploop 10

You expect about 10,000 samples for each event, i.e., 10s at
1000samples/sec. However, this is not what's happening. You
get much fewer samples, maybe 3700 samples/event:

$ perf report -D | tail -15
Aggregated stats:
           TOTAL events:      10998
            MMAP events:         66
            COMM events:          2
          SAMPLE events:      10930
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3644
          SAMPLE events:       3644
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3642
          SAMPLE events:       3642
cycles stats:
           TOTAL events:       3644
          SAMPLE events:       3644

On a Intel Nehalem or even AMD64, there are 4 counters capable
of measuring cycles, so there is plenty of space to measure those
events without multiplexing (even with the NMI watchdog active).
And even with multiplexing, we'd expect roughly the same number
of samples per event.

The root of the problem was that when the event that caused the buffer
to become full was not the first event passed on the cmdline, the user
notification would get lost. The notification was sent to the file
descriptor of the overflowed event but the perf tool was not polling
on it.  The perf tool aggregates all samples into a single buffer,
i.e., the buffer of the first event. Consequently, it assumes
notifications for any event will come via that descriptor.

The seemingly straight forward solution of moving the waitq into the
ringbuffer object doesn't work because of life-time issues. One could
perf_event_set_output() on a fd that you're also blocking on and cause
the old rb object to be freed while its waitq would still be
referenced by the blocked thread -> FAIL.

Therefore link all events to the ringbuffer and broadcast the wakeup
from the ringbuffer object to all possible events that could be waited
upon. This is rather ugly, and we're open to better solutions but it
works for now.
