Impact: change the units of buffer_size_kb to kilobytes

This patch changes the units of the buffer_size_kb file to kilobytes.
Reading and writing to the file uses kilobytes as units. To help
users to know what units are used, the output of the file now
looks like:

  # cat /debug/tracing/buffer_size_kb

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).

( Note, the units are still bytes - the next patch changes that,
  to keep the wide rename patch separate from the unit-change patch. )

Impact: remove spinlocks and irq disabling in function return tracer.

I've tried to figure out all of the race condition that could happen
when the tracer pushes or pops a return address trace to/from the
current thread_info.

Theory:

_ One thread can only execute on one cpu at a time. So this code
  doesn't need to be SMP-safe. Just drop the spinlock.

_ The only race could happen between the current thread and an
  interrupt. If an interrupt is raised, it will increase the index of
  the return stack storage and then execute until the end of the
  tracing to finally free the index it used. We don't need to disable
  irqs.

This is theorical. In practice, I've tested it with a two-core SMP and
had no problem at all. Perhaps -tip testing could confirm it.

Impact: added new branch tracer

Currently the tracing of branch profiling (unlikelys and likelys hit)
is only activated by the iter_ctrl. This patch adds a tracer called
"branch" that will just trace the branch profiling. The advantage
of adding this tracer is that it can be added to the ftrace selftests
on startup.

Impact: rename of iter_ctrl unlikely to branch

The unlikely name is ugly. This patch converts the iter_ctrl command

of "unlikely".

Impact: new likely/unlikely branch tracer

This patch adds a way to record the instances of the likely() and unlikely()
branch condition annotations.

When "unlikely" is set in /debugfs/tracing/iter_ctrl the unlikely conditions
will be added to any of the ftrace tracers. The change takes effect when
a new tracer is passed into the current_tracer file.

For example:

 bash-3471  [003]   357.014755: [INCORRECT] sched_info_dequeued:sched_stats.h:177
 bash-3471  [003]   357.014756: [correct] update_curr:sched_fair.c:489
 bash-3471  [003]   357.014758: [correct] calc_delta_fair:sched_fair.c:411
 bash-3471  [003]   357.014759: [correct] account_group_exec_runtime:sched_stats.h:356
 bash-3471  [003]   357.014761: [correct] update_curr:sched_fair.c:489
 bash-3471  [003]   357.014763: [INCORRECT] calc_delta_fair:sched_fair.c:411
 bash-3471  [003]   357.014765: [correct] calc_delta_mine:sched.c:1279

Which shows the normal tracer heading, as well as whether the condition was
correct "[correct]" or was mistaken "[INCORRECT]", followed by the function,
file name and line number.

Impact: new unlikely/likely profiler

Andrew Morton recently suggested having an in-kernel way to profile
likely and unlikely macros. This patch achieves that goal.

When configured, every(*) likely and unlikely macro gets a counter attached
to it. When the condition is hit, the hit and misses of that condition
are recorded. These numbers can later be retrieved by:

  /debugfs/tracing/profile_likely    - All likely markers
  /debugfs/tracing/profile_unlikely  - All unlikely markers.

that were more than 25%.

Note:  After submitting my first version of this patch, Andrew Morton
  showed me a version written by Daniel Walker, where I picked up
  the following ideas from:

  1)  Using __builtin_constant_p to avoid profiling fixed values.
  2)  Using __FILE__ instead of instruction pointers.
  3)  Using the preprocessor to stop all profiling of likely
       annotations from vsyscall_64.c.

Thanks to Andrew Morton, Arjan van de Ven, Theodore Tso and Ingo Molnar
for their feed back on this patch.

The ring_buffer_time_stamp still uses sched_clock as its counter.
But it is a bug to call it with preemption enabled. This requirement

the ring_buffer_time_stamp needs to disable preemption when calling
sched_clock.

Impact: Split the boot tracer entries in two parts: call and return

Now that we are using the sched tracer from the boot tracer, we want
to use the same timestamp than the ring-buffer to have consistent time
captures between sched events and initcall events.

So we get rid of the old time capture by the boot tracer and split the
initcall events in two parts: call and return. This way we have the
ring buffer timestamp of both.

Impact: Cleanups on the boot tracer and ftrace

This patch bring some cleanups about the boot tracer headers. The
functions and structures of this tracer have nothing related to ftrace

Conflicts:
	kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c

Impact: Restructure WARN_ONs in ring_buffer.c

The current WARN_ON macros in ring_buffer.c are quite ugly.

This patch cleans them up and uses a single RB_WARN_ON that returns
the value of the condition. This allows the caller to abort the
function if the condition is true.

Merge branch 'devel' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace into tracing/urgent

Impact: enable/disable ring buffer recording API added

Several kernel developers have requested that there be a way to stop
recording into the ring buffers with a simple switch that can also
be enabled from userspace. This patch addes a new kernel API to the
ring buffers called:

 tracing_on()
 tracing_off()

When tracing_off() is called, all ring buffers will not be able to record
into their buffers.

tracing_on() will enable the ring buffers again.

These two act like an on/off switch. That is, there is no counting of the
number of times tracing_off or tracing_on has been called.

A new file is added to the debugfs/tracing directory called

  tracing_on

This allows for userspace applications to also flip the switch.

  echo 0 > debugfs/tracing/tracing_on

disables the tracing.

  echo 1 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_on

enables it.

Note, this does not disable or enable any tracers. It only sets or clears
a flag that needs to be set in order for the ring buffers to write to
their buffers. It is a global flag, and affects all ring buffers.

The buffers start out with tracing_on enabled.

There are now three flags that control recording into the buffers:

 tracing_on: which affects all ring buffer tracers.

 buffer->record_disabled: which affects an allocated buffer, which may be set
     if an anomaly is detected, and tracing is disabled.

 cpu_buffer->record_disabled: which is set by tracing_stop() or if an
     anomaly is detected. tracing_start can not reenable this if
     an anomaly occurred.

The userspace debugfs/tracing/tracing_enabled is implemented with
tracing_stop() but the user space code can not enable it if the kernel
called tracing_stop().

Userspace can enable the tracing_on even if the kernel disabled it.
It is just a switch used to stop tracing if a condition was hit.
tracing_on is not for protecting critical areas in the kernel nor is
it for stopping tracing if an anomaly occurred. This is because userspace
can reenable it at any time.

Side effect: With this patch, I discovered a dead variable in ftrace.c
  called tracing_on. This patch removes it.

Impact: serialize reader accesses to individual CPU ring buffers

The code in the ring buffer expects only one reader at a time, but currently
it puts that requirement on the caller. This is not strong enough, and this
patch adds a "reader_lock" that serializes the access to the reader API
of the ring buffer.
