2008-05-23ftrace: trace_entries to dynamically change trace buffer sizeSteven Rostedt-8/+137
This patch adds /debug/tracing/trace_entries that allows users to see as well as modify the number of trace entries the buffers hold. The number of entries only increments in ENTRIES_PER_PAGE which is calculated by the size of an entry with the number of entries that can fit in a page. The user does not need to use an exact size, but the entries will be rounded to one of the increments. Trying to set the entries to 0 will return with -EINVAL. To avoid race conditions, the modification of the buffer size can only be done when tracing is completely disabled (current_tracer == none). A info message will be printed if a user tries to modify the buffer size when not set to none.

2008-05-23ftrace: user proper API for setting RT prios in selftestSteven Rostedt-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: fix conversion of task state to char in latency tracerAnkita Garg-2/+3
The conversion of task states to a character in the sched_switch tracer (part of latency tracer infrastructure), seems to be incorrect. We currently do it by indexing into the state_to_char array using the state value. The state values do not map directly into the array index and are thus incorrect. The following patch addresses this issue. This is also what is being done even in the show_task() routine in kernel/sched.c The patch has been compile and run tested.

2008-05-23ftrace: selftest protect againt max flipSteven Rostedt-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 mutex unlock in trace outputSteven Rostedt-1/+3
If the trace output changes on reading the trace files, there is a chance that the start function will return NULL. If the start function of a sequence returns NULL the stop equivalent is not called. In this case, all locks that are taken must be released even if they are released in the stop function. This patch fixes a case that a mutex was not released on return of NULL in the start sequence function.

2008-05-23ftrace: add UNINTERRUPTIBLE state for kftraced on disableSteven Rostedt-4/+2
When dynamic ftrace fails and sets itself disabled, the ftraced daemon will go back to sleep everytime it wakes up. The setting of the ftraced state to UNINTERRUPTIBLE is skipped in this process, and the daemon takes up 100% of the CPU. This patch makes sure the ftraced daemon sets itself to UNINTERRUPTIBLE in that loop.

2008-05-23ftrace: user raw_spin_lock in tracingSteven Rostedt-22/+31
Lock debugging enabled cause huge performance problems for tracing. Having the lock verification happening for every function that is called because mcount calls spin_lock can cripple the system. This patch converts the spin_locks used by ftrace into raw_spin_locks.

2008-05-23ftrace: irqsoff use raw_smp_processor_idSteven Rostedt-9/+10
This patch changes the use of __get_cpu_var to explicitly calling raw_smp_processor_id and using the per_cpu() macro. On some debug configurations, the use of __get_cpu_var may cause ftrace to trigger and this can cause problems with the irqsoff tracing.

2008-05-23ftrace: fix dynamic ftrace selftestSteven Rostedt-6/+13
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 Rostedt-1/+3

2008-05-23ftrace: printk and trace irqsoff and wakeupsSteven Rostedt-25/+14
printk called from wakeup critical timings and irqs off can cause deadlocks since printk might do a wakeup itself. If the call to printk happens with the runqueue lock held, it can deadlock. This patch protects the printk from being called in trace irqs off with a test to see if the runqueue for the current CPU is locked. If it is locked, the printk is skipped. The wakeup always holds the runqueue lock, so the printk is simply removed.

2008-05-23ftrace: remove address of function namesSteven Rostedt-2/+2
PowerPC is very fragile when it comes to use of function names and function addresses. ftrace needs to either use all function addresses or function names (i.e. my_func as suppose to &my_func). This patch chooses to use the names and not the addresses, and makes ftrace consistent.

2008-05-23ftrace: add trace_function api for other tracers to useSteven Rostedt-11/+17
A new check was added in the ftrace function that wont trace if the CPU trace buffer is disabled. Unfortunately, other tracers used ftrace() to write to the buffer after they disabled it. The new disable check makes these calls into a nop. This patch changes the __ftrace that is called without the check into a new api for the other tracers to use, called "trace_function". The other tracers use this interface instead when the trace CPU buffer is already disabled.

Since ftrace touches practically every function. If we detect any anomaly, we want to fully disable ftrace.

2008-05-23ftrace - fix dynamic ftrace memory leakSteven Rostedt-3/+42
The ftrace dynamic function update allocates a record to store the instruction pointers that are being modified. If the modified instruction pointer fails to update, then the record is marked as failed and nothing more is done. Worse, if the modification fails, but the record ip function is still called, it will allocate a new record and try again. In just a matter of time, will this cause a serious memory leak and crash the system. This patch plugs this memory leak. When a record fails, it is included back into the pool of records to be used. Now a record may fail over and over again, but the number of allocated records will not increase.
