tracing: Remove unused ftrace_cpu_disabled per cpu variable

2015-11-07T18:25:14Z

Since the ring buffer is lockless, there is no need to disable ftrace on CPU. And no one doing so: after commit 68179686ac67cb ("tracing: Remove ftrace_disable/enable_cpu()") ftrace_cpu_disabled stays the same after initialization, nothing changes it. ftrace_cpu_disabled shouldn't be used by any external module since it disables only function and graph_function tracers but not any other tracer.

tracing: Remove redundant TP_ARGS redefining

2015-11-03T20:07:07Z

TP_ARGS is not used anywhere in trace.h nor trace_entries.h Firstly, I left just #undef TP_ARGS and had no errors - remove it. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1446576560-14085-1-git-send-email-0x7f454c46@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Dmitry Safonov <0x7f454c46@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: ftrace_event_is_function() can return boolean

2015-11-02T19:28:05Z

Make ftrace_event_is_function() return bool to improve readability due to this particular function only using either one or zero as its return value. No functional change.

tracing: Implement event pid filtering

2015-10-26T01:33:56Z

Add the necessary hooks to use the pids loaded in set_event_pid to filter all the events enabled in the tracing instance that match the pids listed. Two probes are added to both sched_switch and sched_wakeup tracepoints to be called before other probes are called and after the other probes are called. The first is used to set the necessary flags to let the probes know to test if they should be traced or not. The sched_switch pre probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if neither the previous or next task has a matching pid. The sched_switch probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if the next task does not match the matching pid. The pre probe allows for probes tracing sched_switch to be traced if necessary. The sched_wakeup pre probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if neither the current task nor the wakee task has a matching pid. The sched_wakeup post probe will set the "ignore_pid" flag if the current task does not have a matching pid. Cc: "Paul E. McKenney" Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Add set_event_pid directory for future use

2015-10-26T01:33:55Z

Create a tracing directory called set_event_pid, which currently has no function, but will be used to filter all events for the tracing instance or the pids that are added to the file. The reason no functionality is added with this commit is that this commit focuses on the creation and removal of the pids in a safe manner. And tests can be made against this change to make sure things are correct before hooking features to the list of pids. Cc: "Paul E. McKenney" Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Add trace options for tracer options to instances

2015-09-30T19:22:58Z

Add the tracer options to instances options directory as well. Only add the options for tracers that are allowed to be enabled by an instance. But note, that tracer options are global. That is, tracer options enabled in an instance, also take affect at the top level and in other instances. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Add a method to pass in trace_array descriptor to option files

2015-09-30T19:22:56Z

In preparation of having the multi buffer instances having their own trace option flags, the trace option files needs a way to not only pass in the flag they represent, but also the trace_array descriptor. A new field is added to the trace_array descriptor called trace_flags_index, which is a 32 byte character array representing a bit. This array is simply filled with the index of the array, where index_array[n] = n; Then the address of this array is passed to the file callbacks instead of the index of the flag index. Then to retrieve both the flag index and the trace_array descriptor: data is the passed in argument. index = *(unsigned char *)data; data -= index; /* Now data points to the address of the array in the trace_array */ tr = container_of(data, struct trace_array, trace_flags_index); Suggested-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Move trace_flags from global to a trace_array field

2015-09-30T19:22:55Z

In preparation to make trace options per instance, the global trace_flags needs to be moved from being a global variable to a field within the trace instance trace_array structure. There's still more work to do, as there's some functions that use trace_flags without passing in a way to get to the current_trace array. For those, the global_trace is used directly (from trace.c). This includes setting and clearing the trace_flags. This means that when a new instance is created, it just gets the trace_flags of the global_trace and will not be able to modify them. Depending on the functions that have access to the trace_array, the flags of an instance may not affect parts of its trace, where the global_trace is used. These will be fixed in future changes.

tracing: Move sleep-time and graph-time options out of the core trace_flags

2015-09-30T19:22:42Z

The sleep-time and graph-time options are only for the function graph tracer and are not used by anything else. As tracer options are now visible when the tracer is not activated, its better to move the function graph specific tracer options into the function graph tracer. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

tracing: Remove access to trace_flags in trace_printk.c

2015-09-30T08:35:18Z

In the effort to move the global trace_flags to the tracing instances, the direct access to trace_flags must be removed from trace_printk.c Instead, add a new trace_printk_enabled boolean that is set by a new access function trace_printk_control(), that will enable or disable trace_printk.
