Impact: cleanup The functions tracing_start/tracing_stop have been moved to kernel.h. These are not the functions a developer most likely wants to use when they want to insert a place to stop tracing and restart it from user space. tracing_start/tracing_stop was created to work with things like suspend to ram, where even calling smp_processor_id() can crash the system. The tracing_start/tracing_stop was used to stop the tracer from doing anything. These are still light weight functions, but add a bit more overhead to be able to stop the tracers. They also have no interface back to userland. That is, if the kernel calls tracing_stop, userland can not start tracing. What a developer most likely wants to use is tracing_on/tracing_off. These are very light weight functions (simply sets or clears a bit). These functions just stop recording into the ring buffer. The tracers don't even know that this happens except that they would receive NULL from the ring_buffer_lock_reserve function. Also, there's a way for the user land to enable or disable this bit. In debugfs/tracing/tracing_on, a user may echo "0" (same as tracing_off()) or echo "1" (same as tracing_on()) into this file. This becomes handy when a kernel developer is debugging and wants tracing to turn off when it hits an anomaly. Then the developer can examine the trace, and restart tracing if they want to try again (echo 1 > tracing_on). This patch moves the prototypes for tracing_on/tracing_off to kernel.h and comments their use, so that a kernel developer will know how to use them.

The latency tracers (irqsoff, preemptoff, preemptirqsoff, and wakeup) are pretty useless with the default output format. This patch makes them automatically enable the latency format when they are selected. They also record the state of the latency option, and if it was not enabled when selected, they disable it on reset. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

Impact: clean up Both print_lat_fmt and print_trace_fmt do pretty much the same thing except for one different function call. This patch consolidates the two functions and adds an if statement to perform the difference. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

Impact: clean up The trace and latency_trace function pointers are identical for every tracer but the function tracer. The differences in the function tracer are trivial (latency output puts paranthesis around parent). This patch removes the latency_trace pointer and all prints will now just use the trace output function pointer. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

With the removal of the latency_trace file, we lost the ability to see some of the finer details in a trace. Like the state of interrupts enabled, the preempt count, need resched, and if we are in an interrupt handler, softirq handler or not. This patch simply creates an option to bring back the old format. This also removes the warning about an unused variable that held the latency_trace file operations. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

Impact: fix trace read to conform to standards Andrew Morton, Theodore Tso and H. Peter Anvin brought to my attention that a userspace read should not return -EFAULT if it succeeded in copying anything. It should only return -EFAULT if it failed to copy at all. This patch modifies the check of copy_from_user and updates the return code appropriately. I also used H. Peter Anvin's short cut rule to just test ret == count.

If a partial ring_buffer_page_read happens, then some of the incremental timestamps may be lost. This patch writes the recent timestamp into the page that is passed back to the caller. A partial ring_buffer_page_read is where the full page would not be written back to the user, and instead, just part of the page is copied to the user. A full page would be a page swap with the ring buffer and the timestamps would be correct. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

Impact: fix to ftrace_dump output corruption The commit: b04cc6b1 tracing/core: introduce per cpu tracing files added a new field to the iterator called cpu_file. This was a handle to differentiate between the per cpu trace output files and the all cpu "trace" file. The all cpu "trace" file required setting this to TRACE_PIPE_ALL_CPU. The problem is that the ftrace_dump sets up its own iterator but was not updated to handle this change. The result was only CPU 0 printing out on crash and a lot of "<0>"'s also being printed.

Impact: new feature This patch creates a directory of files that correspond to the per CPU ring buffers. These are binary files and are made to be used with splice.

Impact: dont leave holes in read buffer page The ring_buffer_read_page swaps a given page with the reader page of the ring buffer, if certain conditions are set: 1) requested length is big enough to hold entire page data 2) a writer is not currently on the page 3) the page is not partially consumed. Instead of swapping with the supplied page. It copies the data to the supplied page instead. But currently the data is copied in the same offset as the source page. This causes a hole at the start of the reader page. This complicates the use of this function. Instead, it should copy the data at the beginning of the function and update the index fields accordingly. Other small clean ups are also done in this patch.

Impact: fix to possible alignment problems on some archs. Some arch compilers include an NULL char array in the sizeof field.
