      tracing: filter fix for TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT events · 9a8118ba
      Tom Zanussi authored
      Impact: fix crash (hang) when using TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT filter files
      
      filters are only hooked up to the tracepoint events defined using
      TRACE_EVENT but not the tracers that use TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT, such
      as ftrace.
      
      Do not display the filter files at all for TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT events
      for the time being.

      tracing: Documentation / sample code fixes for tracepoints · 0a5d6490
      Jody McIntyre authored
      Fix the tracepoint documentation to refer to "tracepoint-sample"
      instead of "tracepoint-example" to match what actually exists;
      fix the directory, and clarify how to compile.
      
      Change every instance of "example" in the sample tracepoint code
      to "sample" for consistency.

      ftrace: show virtual PID · cc59c9e8

      Impact: fix PID output under namespaces
      
      When current namespace is not the global namespace,
      pid read from set_ftrace_pid is no correct.

       # echo 1 > set_ftrace_pid
       # cat set_ftrace_pid
       3756
      
      Since we write virtual PID to set_ftrace_pid, we need get
      virtual PID when we read it.

      function-graph: add option for include sleep times · be6f164a
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Impact: give user a choice to show times spent while sleeping
      
      The user may want to see the time a function spent sleeping.
      This patch adds the trace option "sleep-time" to allow that.
      The "sleep-time" option is default on.
      
       echo sleep-time > /debug/tracing/trace_options
      
      produces:

      function-graph: ignore times across schedule · 8aef2d28
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Impact: more accurate timings
      
      The current method of function graph tracing does not take into
      account the time spent when a task is not running. This shows functions
      that call schedule have increased costs:
      
       3) + 18.664 us   |      }
       ------------------------------------------
       3)    <idle>-0    =>  kblockd-123
       ------------------------------------------
      
       3)               |      finish_task_switch() {
       3)   1.441 us    |        _spin_unlock_irq();
       3)   3.966 us    |      }
       3) ! 2959.433 us |    }
       3) ! 2961.465 us |  }
      
      This patch uses the tracepoint in the scheduling context switch to
      account for time that has elapsed while a task is scheduled out.
      Now we see:
      
       ------------------------------------------
       3)    <idle>-0    =>  edac-po-1067
       ------------------------------------------
      
       3)               |      finish_task_switch() {
       3)   0.685 us    |        _spin_unlock_irq();
       3)   2.331 us    |      }

      function-graph: prevent more than one tracer registering · 05ce5818
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Impact: prevent crash due to multiple function graph tracers
      
      The function graph tracer can currently only handle a single tracer
      being registered. If another tracer registers with the function
      graph tracer it can crash the system.

      tracing: fix memory leak in trace_stat · 09833521
      Steven Rostedt authored
      If the function profiler does not have any items recorded and one were
      to cat the function stat file, the kernel would take a BUG with a NULL
      pointer dereference.
      
      Looking further into this, I found that returning NULL from stat_start
      did not stop the stat logic, and would later call stat_next. This breaks
      from the way seq_file works, so I looked into fixing the stat code.
      
      This is where I noticed that the last next_entry is never freed.
      It is allocated, and if the stat_next returns NULL, the code breaks out
      of the loop, unlocks the mutex and exits. We never link the next_entry
      nor do we free it. Thus it is a real memory leak.
      
      This patch rearranges the code a bit to not only fix the memory leak,
      but also to act more like seq_file where nothing is printed if there
      is nothing to print. That is, stat_start returns NULL.

      blktrace: print human-readable act_mask · 09341997
      Li Zefan authored
      Impact: new feature, allow symbolic values in /debug/tracing/act_mask
      
      Print stringified act_mask instead of hex value:
      
       # cat act_mask
       read,write,barrier,sync,queue,requeue,issue,complete,fs,pc,ahead,meta,
       discard,drv_data
       # echo "meta,write" > act_mask
       # cat act_mask
       write,meta
      
      Also:
       - make act_mask accept "ahead", "meta", "discard" and "drv_data"
       - use strsep() instead of strchr() to parse user input
       - return -EINVAL if a token is not found in the mask map
       - fix a bug that 'value' is unsigned, so it can < 0
       - propagate error value of blk_trace_mask2str() to userspace, but not
         always return -ENXIO.
