ftrace/recordmcount: Work around for addition of metag magic but not relocations

2016-08-22T16:23:26Z

[ Upstream commit b2e1c26f0b62531636509fbcb6dab65617ed8331 ] glibc recently did a sync up (94e73c95d9b5 "elf.h: Sync with the gabi webpage") that added a #define for EM_METAG but did not add relocations This triggers build errors: scripts/recordmcount.c: In function 'do_file': scripts/recordmcount.c:466:28: error: 'R_METAG_ADDR32' undeclared (first use in this function) case EM_METAG: reltype = R_METAG_ADDR32; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ scripts/recordmcount.c:466:28: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in scripts/recordmcount.c:468:20: error: 'R_METAG_NONE' undeclared (first use in this function) rel_type_nop = R_METAG_NONE; ^~~~~~~~~~~~ Work around this change with some more #ifdefery for the relocations.

s390/ftrace: remove 31 bit ftrace support

2014-10-09T07:14:18Z

31 bit and 64 bit diverge more and more and it is rather painful to keep both parts running. To make things simpler just remove the 31 bit support which nobody uses anyway. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

ftrace: Add arm64 support to recordmcount

2014-05-29T08:04:31Z

Recordmcount utility under scripts is run, after compiling each object, to find out all the locations of calling _mcount() and put them into specific seciton named __mcount_loc. Then linker collects all such information into a table in the kernel image (between __start_mcount_loc and __stop_mcount_loc) for later use by ftrace. This patch adds arm64 specific definitions to identify such locations. There are two types of implementation, C and Perl. On arm64, only C version is used to build the kernel now that CONFIG_HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT is on. But Perl version is also maintained. This patch also contains a workaround just in case where a header file, elf.h, on host machine doesn't have definitions of EM_AARCH64 nor R_AARCH64_ABS64. Without them, compiling C version of recordmcount will fail. Acked-by: Will Deacon Signed-off-by: AKASHI Takahiro Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

ftrace/recordmcount: Add warning logic to warn on mcount not recorded

2011-05-16T18:44:20Z

There's some sections that should not have mcount recorded and should not have modifications to the that code. But currently they waste some time by calling mcount anyway (which simply returns). As the real answer should be to either whitelist the section or have gcc ignore it fully. This change adds a option to recordmcount to warn when it finds a section that is ignored by ftrace but still contains mcount callers. This is not on by default as developers may not know if the section should be completely ignored or added to the whitelist.

ftrace/recordmcount: Make ignored mcount calls into nops at compile time

2011-05-16T18:43:32Z

There are sections that are ignored by ftrace for the function tracing because the text is in a section that can be removed without notice. The mcount calls in these sections are ignored and ftrace never sees them. The downside of this is that the functions in these sections still call mcount. Although the mcount function is defined in assembly simply as a return, this added overhead is unnecessary. The solution is to convert these callers into nops at compile time. A better solution is to add 'notrace' to the section markers, but as new sections come up all the time, it would be nice that they are delt with when they are created. Later patches will deal with finding these sections and doing the proper solution. Thanks to H. Peter Anvin for giving me the right nops to use for x86. Cc: "H.
