2009-02-09tracing/function-graph-tracer: provide a selftest for the function graph tracerFrederic Weisbecker1-0/+50
Making it more easy to do a basic regression test for this tracer. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-02-06trace: Call tracing_reset_online_cpus before tracer->init()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-9/+9
Impact: cleanup To make it easy for ftrace plugin writers, as this was open coded in the existing plugins Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Frédéric Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-12-29tracing/selftest: remove TRACE_CONT referenceIngo Molnar1-1/+0
Impact: build fix TRACE_CONT is gone - fix up the self-test too. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-11-16tracing/ftrace: change the type of the init() callbackFrederic Weisbecker1-9/+57
Impact: extend the ->init() method with the ability to fail This bring a way to know if the initialization of a tracer successed. A tracer must return 0 on success and a traditional error (ie: -ENOMEM) if it fails. If a tracer fails to init, it is free to print a detailed warn. The tracing api will not and switch to a new tracer will just return the error from the init callback. Note: this will be used for the return tracer.

2008-11-16ftrace: replace raw_local_irq_save with local_irq_saveSteven Rostedt1-2/+2
Impact: fix lockdep disabling itself when function tracing is enabled The raw_local_irq_saves used in ftrace is causing problems with lockdep. (it thinks the irq flags are out of sync and disables itself with a warning) The raw ops here are not needed, and the normal local_irq_save is fine. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-11-12ftrace: add tracer called branchSteven Rostedt1-0/+23
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. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-11-08ftrace: force pass of preemptoff selftestSteven Rostedt1-0/+26
Impact: preemptoff not tested in selftest Due to the BKL not being preemptable anymore, the selftest of the preemptoff code can not be tested. It requires that it is called with preemption enabled, but since the BKL is held, that is no longer the case. This patch simply skips those tests if it detects that the context is not preemptable. The following will now show up in the tests: Testing tracer preemptoff: can not test ... force PASSED Testing tracer preemptirqsoff: can not test ... force PASSED When the BKL is removed, or it becomes preemptable once again, then the tests will be performed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-11-08ftrace: remove trace array ctrlSteven Rostedt1-8/+0
Impact: remove obsolete variable in trace_array structure With the new start / stop method of ftrace, the ctrl variable in the trace_array structure is now obsolete. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-11-08ftrace: remove ctrl_update methodSteven Rostedt1-22/+26
Impact: Remove the ctrl_update tracer method With the new quick start/stop method of tracing, the ctrl_update method is out of date. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-23ftrace: remove daemonSteven Rostedt1-14/+0
The ftrace daemon is complex and error prone. This patch strips it out of the code. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-20ftrace: rename FTRACE to FUNCTION_TRACERSteven Rostedt1-2/+2
Due to confusion between the ftrace infrastructure and the gcc profiling tracer "ftrace", this patch renames the config options from FTRACE to FUNCTION_TRACER. The other two names that are offspring from FTRACE DYNAMIC_FTRACE and FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD will stay the same. This patch was generated mostly by script, and partially by hand. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-14ftrace: make work with new ring bufferSteven Rostedt1-50/+10
This patch ports ftrace over to the new ring buffer. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-14ftrace: give time for wakeup test to runSteven Rostedt1-0/+3
It is possible that the testing thread in the ftrace wakeup test does not run before we stop the trace. This will cause the trace to fail since nothing will be in the buffers. This patch adds a small wait in the wakeup test to allow for the woken task to run and be traced. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-14ftrace: add nop tracerSteven Noonan1-0/+9
A no-op tracer which can serve two purposes: 1. A template for development of a new tracer. 2. A convenient way to see ftrace_printk() calls without an irrelevant trace making the output messy. [ mingo@elte.hu: resolved conflicts ] Signed-off-by: Steven Noonan <steven@uplinklabs.net> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-10-14ftrace: printk formatting infrastructureSteven Rostedt1-4/+7
This patch adds a feature that can help kernel developers debug their code using ftrace. int ftrace_printk(const char *fmt, ...); This records into the ftrace buffer using printf formatting. The entry size in the buffers are still a fixed length. A new type has been added that allows for more entries to be used for a single recording. The start of the print is still the same as the other entries. It returns the number of characters written to the ftrace buffer. For example: Having a module with the following code: static int __init ftrace_print_test(void) { ftrace_printk("jiffies are %ld\n", jiffies); return 0; } Gives me: insmod-5441 3...1 7569us : ftrace_print_test: jiffies are 4296626666 for the latency_trace file and: insmod-5441 [03] 1959.370498: ftrace_print_test jiffies are 4296626666 for the trace file. Note: Only the infrastructure should go into the kernel. It is to help facilitate debugging for other kernel developers. Calls to ftrace_printk is not intended to be left in the kernel, and should be frowned upon just like scattering printks around in the code. But having this easily at your fingertips helps the debugging go faster and bugs be solved quicker. Maybe later on, we can hook this with markers and have their printf format be sucked into ftrace output. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-05-26ftrace: limit use of check pagesSteven Rostedt1-0/+1
The check_pages function is called often enough that it can cause problems with trace outputs or even bringing the system to a halt. This patch limits the check_pages to the places that are most likely to have problems. The check is made at the flip between the global array and the max save array, as well as when the size of the buffers changes and the self tests. This patch also removes the BUG_ON from check_pages and replaces it with a WARN_ON and disabling of the tracer.

2008-05-23ftrace: support for PowerPCSteven Rostedt1-2/+9
This patch adds full support for ftrace for PowerPC (both 64 and 32 bit). This includes dynamic tracing and function filtering. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2008-05-23ftrace: user proper API for setting RT prios in selftestSteven Rostedt1-3/+3
The wakeup selftest used an internal API for setting the test task priority. This patch fixes it to use the proper API for performing such a task. Thanks goes to Randy Dunlap for pointing out this build failure.

2008-05-23ftrace: selftest protect againt max flipSteven Rostedt1-3/+7
There is a slight race condition in the selftest where the max update of the wakeup and irqs/preemption off tests can be doing a max update as the buffers are being tested. If this happens the system can crash with a GPF. This patch adds the max update spinlock around the checking of the buffers to prevent such a race.

2008-05-23ftrace: fix dynamic ftrace selftestSteven Rostedt1-6/+0
With the adding of the configuration changes in the Makefile to prevent tracing of functions in the ftrace code, all tracing of all the ftrace code has been removed. Unfortunately, one of the selftests, relied on a function to be traced. With the new change, the function was no longer traced and the test failed. This patch separates out the test function into its own file so that we can add the "-pg" flag to the compilation of that function and the adding of the mcount call to that function.

2008-05-23ftrace: add TRACE_STACK and TRACE_SPECIAL to selftest validationSteven Rostedt1-1/+3
The selftest validation code checks for valid entries in the trace buffer. TRACE_STACK and TRACE_SPECIAL have been added to the code but not to the validator. This patch adds the two to prevent them from flagging a failure in the selftest.

2008-05-23ftrace: disable tracing on failureSteven Rostedt1-0/+4
Since ftrace touches practically every function. If we detect any anomaly, we want to fully disable ftrace. This patch adds code to try shutdown ftrace as much as possible without doing any more harm is something is detected not quite correct. This only kills ftrace, this patch does have checks for other parts of the tracer (irqsoff, wakeup, etc.).

2008-05-23ftrace: startup tester on dynamic tracing.Steven Rostedt1-4/+109
This patch adds a startup self test on dynamic code modification and filters. The test filters on a specific function, makes sure that no other function is traced, exectutes the function, then makes sure that the function is traced. This patch also fixes a slight bug with the ftrace selftest, where tracer_enabled was not being set.
