      x86: fix assembly constraints in native_save_fl() · f1f029c7
      H. Peter Anvin 提交于
      From Gabe Black in bugzilla 13888:
      
      native_save_fl is implemented as follows:
      
        11static inline unsigned long native_save_fl(void)
        12{
        13        unsigned long flags;
        14
        15        asm volatile("# __raw_save_flags\n\t"
        16                     "pushf ; pop %0"
        17                     : "=g" (flags)
        18                     : /* no input */
        19                     : "memory");
        20
        21        return flags;
        22}
      
      If gcc chooses to put flags on the stack, for instance because this is
      inlined into a larger function with more register pressure, the offset
      of the flags variable from the stack pointer will change when the
      pushf is performed. gcc doesn't attempt to understand that fact, and
      address used for pop will still be the same. It will write to
      somewhere near flags on the stack but not actually into it and
      overwrite some other value.
      
      I saw this happen in the ide_device_add_all function when running in a
      simulator I work on. I'm assuming that some quirk of how the simulated
      hardware is set up caused the code path this is on to be executed when
      it normally wouldn't.
      
      A simple fix might be to change "=g" to "=r".

      ftrace: trace irq disabled critical timings · 81d68a96
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      This patch adds latency tracing for critical timings
      (how long interrupts are disabled for).
      
       "irqsoff" is added to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers
      
      Note:
        tracing_max_latency
          also holds the max latency for irqsoff (in usecs).
         (default to large number so one must start latency tracing)
      
        tracing_thresh
          threshold (in usecs) to always print out if irqs off
          is detected to be longer than stated here.
          If irq_thresh is non-zero, then max_irq_latency
          is ignored.
      
      Here's an example of a trace with ftrace_enabled = 0
