      ftrace: use current CPU for function startup · 26bc83f4
      Steven Rostedt authored
      This is more of a clean up. Currently the function tracer initializes the
      tracer with which ever CPU was last used for tracing. This value isn't
      realy useful for function tracing, but at least it should be something other
      than a random number.

      ftrace: start wakeup tracing after setting function tracer · ad591240
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Enabling the wakeup tracer before enabling the function tracing causes
      some strange results due to the dynamic enabling of the functions.

      ftrace: check proper config for preempt type · b5c21b45
      Steven Rostedt authored
      There is no CONFIG_PREEMPT_DESKTOP. Use the proper entry CONFIG_PREEMPT.

      ftrace: trace schedule · 1e16c0a0
      Steven Rostedt authored
      After the sched_clock code has been removed from sched.c we can now trace
      the scheduler. The scheduler has a lot of functions that would be worth
      tracing.

      ftrace: define function trace nop · 001b6767
      Steven Rostedt authored
      When CONFIG_FTRACE is not enabled, the tracing_start_functon_trace
      and tracing_stop_function_trace should be nops.

      ftrace: move sched_switch enable after markers · 007c05d4
      Steven Rostedt authored
      We have two markers now that are enabled on sched_switch. One that records
      the context switching and the other that records task wake ups. Currently
      we enable the tracing first and then set the markers. This causes some
      confusing traces:
      
      # tracer: sched_switch
      #
      #           TASK-PID   CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
      #              | |      |          |         |
             trace-cmd-3973  [00]   115.834817:   3973:120:R   +     3:  0:S
             trace-cmd-3973  [01]   115.834910:   3973:120:R   +     6:  0:S
             trace-cmd-3973  [02]   115.834910:   3973:120:R   +     9:  0:S
             trace-cmd-3973  [03]   115.834910:   3973:120:R   +    12:  0:S
             trace-cmd-3973  [02]   115.834910:   3973:120:R   +     9:  0:S
                <idle>-0     [02]   115.834910:      0:140:R ==>  3973:120:R
      
      Here we see that trace-cmd with PID 3973 wakes up task 9 but the next line
      shows the idle task doing a context switch to task 3973.
      
      Enabling the tracing to _after_ the markers are set creates a much saner
      output:
      
      # tracer: sched_switch
      #
      #           TASK-PID   CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
      #              | |      |          |         |
                <idle>-0     [02]  7922.634225:      0:140:R ==>  4790:120:R
             trace-cmd-4789  [03]  7922.634225:      0:140:R   +  4790:120:R

      The moment mmiotrace is enabled, I hit a NULL deref in:

      which means 'entry' in __trace_special() is NULL.
      
      [ mingo@elte.hu: that ftrace_special() was a leftover. ]
