While implementing function tracer and function tracer graph support, I found the exact arch implementation details to be a bit lacking (and my x86 foo ain't great). So after pounding out support for the Blackfin arch, start documenting the requirements/details.

The latency_trace file got removed a while back by commit 886b5b73 and has been replaced by the latency-format option. This patch fixes the documentation by reflecting this change.

Many developers use "/debug/" or "/debugfs/" or "/sys/kernel/debug/" directory name to mount debugfs filesystem for ftrace according to ./Documentation/tracers/ftrace.txt file. And, three directory names(ex:/debug/, /debugfs/, /sys/kernel/debug/) is existed in kernel source like ftrace, DRM, Wireless, Documentation, Network[sky2]files to mount debugfs filesystem. debugfs means debug filesystem for debugging easy to use by greg kroah hartman.

Fix typo about chart to map the kernel priority to user land priorities. * About sched_setscheduler(2) Processes scheduled under SCHED_FIFO or SCHED_RR can have a (user-space) static priority in the range 1 to 99. (reference: http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/ man2/sched_setscheduler.2.html) * From: Steven Rostedt 0 to 98 - maps to RT tasks 99 to 1 (SCHED_RR or SCHED_FIFO) 99 - maps to internal kernel threads that want to be lower than RT tasks but higher than SCHED_OTHER tasks. Although I'm not sure if any kernel thread actually uses this. I'm not even sure how this can be set, because the internal sched_setscheduler function does not allow for it. 100 to 139 - maps nice levels -20 to 19. These are not set via sched_setscheduler, but are set via the nice system call. 140 - reserved for idle tasks.

Impact: extend documentation with notice of using wild cards correctly We know that we can use wild cards to set set_ftrace_filter, but there's problem when using them naively such as: echo h* > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter If there are files named with "h" prefix in current directory, echo "h*" will echo these filenames to set_ftrace_filter, not the intended "h*". For example: $ cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions |grep ^hr |wc -l 23 $ ls $ touch hraa hrdd $ ls hraa hrdd $ echo hr* > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter $ cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter No output in /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter! If we use '' to escape wild cards, it works: $ ls hraa hrdd $ echo "hr*" > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter $ cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter |wc -l 23 This problem can lead to unexpected result if current directory has a lot of files.

Impact: feature to function trace a single thread This patch adds the ability to function trace a single thread. The file: /debugfs/tracing/set_ftrace_pid contains the pid to trace. Valid pids are any positive integer. Writing any negative number to this file will disable the pid tracing and the function tracer will go back to tracing all of threads. This feature works with both static and dynamic function tracing. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: modify+improve the userstacktrace tracing visualization feature Store thread group leader id, and use it to lookup the address in the process's map. We could have looked up the address on thread's map, but the thread might not exist by the time we are called. The process might not exist either, but if you are reading trace_pipe, that is unlikely. Example usage: mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing echo userstacktrace >iter_ctrl echo sym-userobj >iter_ctrl echo sched_switch >current_tracer echo 1 >tracing_enabled cat trace_pipe >/tmp/trace& .... run application ... echo 0 >tracing_enabled cat /tmp/trace You'll see stack entries like: /lib/libpthread-2.7.so[+0xd370] You can convert them to function/line using: addr2line -fie /lib/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370 Or: addr2line -fie /usr/lib/debug/libpthread-2.7.so 0xd370 For non-PIC/PIE executables this won't work: a.out[+0x73b] You need to run the following: addr2line -fie a.out 0x40073b (where 0x400000 is the default load address of a.out) Signed-off-by: NTörök Edwin <edwintorok@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: rename file /debug/tracing/iter_ctrl to /debug/tracing/trace_options The original ftrace had a file called "iter_ctrl" that would control the way the output was iterated.

Impact: rename of debugfs file trace_entries to buffer_size_kb The original ftrace had fixed size entries, and the number of entries was shown and modified via the file called trace_entries. By converting to the unified trace buffer, we now allow for variable size entries which makes the meaning of trace_entries pointless. Since trace_size might be confused to the size of the trace, this patch names it "buffer_size_kb" (thanks to Arjan van de Ven for this idea). [ mingo@elte.hu: changed from buffer_size to buffer_size_kb ] ( Note, the units are still bytes - the next patch changes that, to keep the wide rename patch separate from the unit-change patch. ) Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled. Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing the real answer. This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those same archs compile with tracing enabled. Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

I asked legal about the licensing of ftrace.txt, and they told me that, unless the Documentation directory is specifically set up to handle non GPL licenses (which it does not appear to be), then it would be best to put ftrace.txt under the GPL.
