The function trace_clock() calls "local_clock()" which is exactly
the same clock that perf uses. I'm not sure why perf doesn't call
trace_clock(), as trace_clock() doesn't have any users.

But now it does. As trace_clock() calls local_clock() like perf does,
I added the trace_clock "perf" option that uses trace_clock().

Now the ftrace buffers can use the same clock as perf uses. This
will be useful when perf starts reading the ftrace buffers, and will
be able to interleave them with the same clock data.

Add a simple trace clock called "uptime" for those that are
interested in the uptime of the trace. It uses jiffies as that's
the safest method, as other uptime clocks grab seq locks, which could
cause a deadlock if taken from an event or function tracer.

Currently, the only way to stop the latency tracers from doing function
tracing is to fully disable the function tracer from the proc file
system:

  echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled

This is a big hammer approach as it disables function tracing for
all users. This includes kprobes, perf, stack tracer, etc.

Instead, create a function-trace option that the latency tracers can
check to determine if it should enable function tracing or not.
This option can be set or cleared even while the tracer is active
and the tracers will disable or enable function tracing depending
on how the option was set.

Instead of using the proc file, disable latency function tracing with

  echo 0 > /debug/tracing/options/function-trace

Altough the trace_dump_stack() already skips three functions in
the call to stack trace, which gets the stack trace to start
at the caller of the function, the caller may want to skip some
more too (as it may have helper functions).

Add a skip argument to the trace_dump_stack() that lets the caller
skip back tracing functions that it doesn't care about.

 echo 'schedule:snapshot:1' > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

This will cause the scheduler to trigger a snapshot the next time
it's called (you can use any function that's not called by NMI).

Even though it triggers only once, you still need to remove it with:

 echo '!schedule:snapshot:0' > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

The :1 can be left off for the first command:

 echo 'schedule:snapshot' > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

But this will cause all calls to schedule to trigger a snapshot.
This must be removed without the ':0'

 echo '!schedule:snapshot' > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

As adding a "count" is a different operation (internally).

There's a few places that ftrace uses trace_printk() for internal
use, but this requires context (normal, softirq, irq, NMI) buffers
to keep things lockless. But the trace_puts() does not, as it can
write the string directly into the ring buffer. Make a internal helper
for trace_puts() and have the internal functions use that.

This way the extra context buffers are not used.
Signed-off-by: NSteven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The trace_printk() is extremely fast and is very handy as it can be
used in any context (including NMIs!). But it still requires scanning
the fmt string for parsing the args. Even the trace_bprintk() requires
a scan to know what args will be saved, although it doesn't copy the
format string itself.

Several times trace_printk() has no args, and wastes cpu cycles scanning
the fmt string.

Adding trace_puts() allows the developer to use an even faster
tracing method that only saves the pointer to the string in the
ring buffer without doing any format parsing at all. This will
help remove even more of the "Heisenbug" effect, when debugging.

Also fixed up the F_printk()s for the ftrace internal bprint and print events.

If debugging the kernel, and the developer wants to use
tracing_snapshot() in places where tracing_snapshot_alloc() may
be difficult (or more likely, the developer is lazy and doesn't
want to bother with tracing_snapshot_alloc() at all), then adding

  alloc_snapshot

to the kernel command line parameter will tell ftrace to allocate
the snapshot buffer (if configured) when it allocates the main
tracing buffer.

I also noticed that ring_buffer_expanded and tracing_selftest_disabled
had inconsistent use of boolean "true" and "false" with "0" and "1".

The new snapshot feature is quite handy. It's a way for the user
to take advantage of the spare buffer that, until then, only
the latency tracers used to "snapshot" the buffer when it hit
a max latency. Now users can trigger a "snapshot" manually when
some condition is hit in a program. But a snapshot currently can
not be triggered by a condition inside the kernel.

With the addition of tracing_snapshot() and tracing_snapshot_alloc(),
snapshots can now be taking when a condition is hit, and the
developer wants to snapshot the case without stopping the trace.

Note, any snapshot will overwrite the old one, so take care
in how this is done.

These new functions are to be used like tracing_on(), tracing_off()
and trace_printk() are. That is, they should never be called
in the mainline Linux kernel. They are solely for the purpose
of debugging.

The tracing_snapshot() will not allocate a buffer, but it is
safe to be called from any context (except NMIs). But if a
snapshot buffer isn't allocated when it is called, it will write
to the live buffer, complaining about the lack of a snapshot
buffer, and then stop tracing (giving you the "permanent snapshot").

tracing_snapshot_alloc() will allocate the snapshot buffer if
it was not already allocated and then take the snapshot. This routine
*may sleep*, and must be called from context that can sleep.
The allocation is done with GFP_KERNEL and not atomic.

If you need a snapshot in an atomic context, say in early boot,
then it is best to call the tracing_snapshot_alloc() before then,
where it will allocate the buffer, and then you can use the
tracing_snapshot() anywhere you want and still get snapshots.

Currently, the way the latency tracers and snapshot feature works
is to have a separate trace_array called "max_tr" that holds the
snapshot buffer. For latency tracers, this snapshot buffer is used
to swap the running buffer with this buffer to save the current max
latency.

The only items needed for the max_tr is really just a copy of the buffer
itself, the per_cpu data pointers, the time_start timestamp that states
when the max latency was triggered, and the cpu that the max latency
was triggered on. All other fields in trace_array are unused by the
max_tr, making the max_tr mostly bloat.

This change removes the max_tr completely, and adds a new structure
called trace_buffer, that holds the buffer pointer, the per_cpu data
pointers, the time_start timestamp, and the cpu where the latency occurred.

The trace_array, now has two trace_buffers, one for the normal trace and
one for the max trace or snapshot. By doing this, not only do we remove
the bloat from the max_trace but the instances of traces can now use
their own snapshot feature and not have just the top level global_trace have
the snapshot feature and latency tracers for itself.

Add the interface ("instances" directory) to add multiple buffers
to ftrace. To create a new instance, simply do a mkdir in the
instances directory:

This will create a directory with the following:

 # cd instances
 # mkdir foo
 # ls foo
buffer_size_kb        free_buffer  trace_clock    trace_pipe
buffer_total_size_kb  set_event    trace_marker   tracing_enabled
events/               trace        trace_options  tracing_on

Currently only events are able to be set, and there isn't a way
to delete a buffer when one is created (yet).

Note, the i_mutex lock is dropped from the parent "instances"
directory during the mkdir operation. As the "instances" directory
can not be renamed or deleted (created on boot), I do not see
any harm in dropping the lock. The creation of the sub directories
is protected by trace_types_lock mutex, which only lets one
instance get into the code path at a time. If two tasks try to
create or delete directories of the same name, only one will occur
and the other will fail with -EEXIST.

The trace events for ftrace are all defined via global variables.
The arrays of events and event systems are linked to a global list.
This prevents multiple users of the event system (what to enable and
what not to).

By adding descriptors to represent the event/file relation, as well
as to which trace_array descriptor they are associated with, allows
for more than one set of events to be defined. Once the trace events
files have a link between the trace event and the trace_array they
are associated with, we can create multiple trace_arrays that can
record separate events in separate buffers.

Although the swap is wrapped with a spin_lock, the assignment
of the temp buffer used to swap is not within that lock.
It needs to be moved into that lock, otherwise two swaps
happening on two different CPUs, can end up using the wrong
temp buffer to assign in the swap.

Luckily, all current callers of the swap function appear to have
their own locks. But in case something is added that allows two
different callers to call the swap, then there's a chance that
this race can trigger and corrupt the buffers.

New code is coming soon that will allow for this race to trigger.

To use the tracing snapshot feature, writing a '1' into the snapshot
file causes the snapshot buffer to be allocated if it has not already
been allocated and dose a 'swap' with the main buffer, so that the
snapshot now contains what was in the main buffer, and the main buffer
now writes to what was the snapshot buffer.

To free the snapshot buffer, a '0' is written into the snapshot file.

To clear the snapshot buffer, any number but a '0' or '1' is written
into the snapshot file. But if the file is not allocated it returns
-EINVAL error code. This is rather pointless. It is better just to
do nothing and return success.

When cat'ing the snapshot file, instead of showing an empty trace

Also, this is a good place to show if the snapshot has been allocated
or not. Users may want to "pre allocate" the snapshot to have a fast
"swap" of the current buffer. Otherwise, a swap would be slow and might
fail as it would need to allocate the snapshot buffer, and that might
fail under tight memory constraints.
