tracing: Make a separate config for trace event self tests

2019-05-26T03:04:43Z

The trace event self tests enable loop through *all* events, enables each one, one at a time, runs some code to trigger various events (not necessarily the same events), and checks if anything went wrong. The issue is that trace events are usually the least likely start up test to cause a problem, but they take the longest to run (because there are so many events). When one of the other tests trigger a bug, the trace event start up tests causes the bisect to take much longer, because it takes 10s of seconds to get through the trace event tests. By making them a separate config (even though they are enabled by default if start up tests are set), it is possible to turn them off and still run the other tracing start up tests much quicker.

tracing: stop making gpio tracing configurable

2019-04-08T13:11:48Z

gpio tracing was made configurable in 4.4-rc1 (commit ddd70280bf0e ("tracing: gpio: Add Kconfig option for enabling/disabling trace events")). Since then it is the only event type that can be compiled conditionally. Given that there is only little overhead I don't understand the reasoning and I was annoyed more than once that gpio events were not available without recompiling. So drop the Kconfig symbol and make gpio events available unconditionally. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij

kbuild: compute false-positive -Wmaybe-uninitialized cases in Kconfig

2019-02-27T12:43:20Z

Since -Wmaybe-uninitialized was introduced by GCC 4.7, we have patched various false positives: - commit e74fc973b6e5 ("Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized when building with -Os") turned off this option for -Os. - commit 815eb71e7149 ("Kbuild: disable 'maybe-uninitialized' warning for CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES") turned off this option for CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES - commit a76bcf557ef4 ("Kbuild: enable -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning for "make W=1"") turned off this option for GCC < 4.9 Arnd provided more explanation in https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/3/14/903 I think this looks better by shifting the logic from Makefile to Kconfig.

tracing: Use dyn_event framework for synthetic events

2018-12-09T01:54:10Z

Use dyn_event framework for synthetic events. This shows synthetic events on "tracing/dynamic_events" file in addition to tracing/synthetic_events interface. User can also define new events via tracing/dynamic_events with "s:" prefix. So, the new syntax is below; s:[synthetic/]EVENT_NAME TYPE ARG; [TYPE ARG;]... To remove events via tracing/dynamic_events, you can use "-:" prefix as same as other events.

tracing: Add unified dynamic event framework

2018-12-09T01:54:09Z

Add unified dynamic event framework for ftrace kprobes, uprobes and synthetic events. Those dynamic events can be co-exist on same file because those syntax doesn't overlap. This introduces a framework part which provides a unified tracefs interface and operations.

Merge tag 'trace-v4.19-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

2018-08-23T20:07:00Z

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "Masami found an off by one bug in the code that keeps "notrace" functions from being traced by kprobes. During my testing, I found that there's places that we may want to add kprobes to notrace, thus we may end up changing this code before 4.19 is released. The history behind this change is that we found that adding kprobes to various notrace functions caused the kernel to crashed. We took the safe route and decided not to allow kprobes to trace any notrace function. But because notrace is added to functions that just cause weird side effects to the function tracer, but are still safe, preventing kprobes for all notrace functios may be too much of a big hammer. One such place is __schedule() is marked notrace, to keep function tracer from doing strange recursive loops when it gets traced with NEED_RESCHED set. With this change, one can not add kprobes to the scheduler. Masami also added code to use gcov on ftrace" * tag 'trace-v4.19-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing/kprobes: Fix to check notrace function with correct range tracing: Allow gcov profiling on only ftrace subsystem
