8179e8a15b tracing: Do not create function tracer options when not compiled in
When the function tracer is not compiled in, do not create the option files
for it.

Fix up both the sched_wakeup and irqsoff tracers to handle the change.

a3418a364e tracing: Use TRACE_FLAGS macro to keep enums and strings matched
Use a cute little macro trick to keep the names of the trace flags file
guaranteed to match the corresponding masks.

The macro TRACE_FLAGS is defined as a serious of enum names followed by
the string name of the file that matches it. For example:

 #define TRACE_FLAGS						\
		C(PRINT_PARENT,		"print-parent"),	\
		C(SYM_OFFSET,		"sym-offset"),		\
		C(SYM_ADDR,		"sym-addr"),		\
		C(VERBOSE,		"verbose"),

Now we can define the following:

 #undef C
 #define C(a, b) TRACE_ITER_##a##_BIT
 enum trace_iterator_bits { TRACE_FLAGS };

The above creates:

 enum trace_iterator_bits {
	TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT_BIT,
	TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET_BIT,
	TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT,
	TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE_BIT,
 };

Then we can redefine C as:

 #undef C
 #define C(a, b) TRACE_ITER_##a = (1 << TRACE_ITER_##a##_BIT)
 enum trace_iterator_flags { TRACE_FLAGS };

Which creates:

 enum trace_iterator_flags {
	TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT	= (1 << TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT_BIT),
	TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET	= (1 << TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET_BIT),
	TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR	= (1 << TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT),
	TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE	= (1 << TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE_BIT),
 };

Then finally we can create the list of file names:

 #undef C
 #define C(a, b) b
 static const char *trace_options[] = {
	TRACE_FLAGS
	NULL
 };

Which creates:
 static const char *trace_options[] = {
	"print-parent",
	"sym-offset",
	"sym-addr",
	"verbose",
	NULL
 };

The importance of this is that the strings match the bit index.

	trace_options[TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT] == "sym-addr"

938db5f569 tracing: Remove unused tracing option "ftrace_preempt"
There was a time where the function tracing would disable interrupts unless
specifically told not to, where it would only disable preemption. With the
new lockless code, the function tracing never disalbes interrupts and just
uses disabling of preemption. Remove the option "ftrace_preempt" as it does
nothing anyway.

03905582fd tracing: Move "display-graph" option to main options
In order to facilitate making all tracer options visible even when the
tracer is not active, we need to get rid of duplicate options. Any option
that is shared between multiple tracers really should be a main option.

As the wakeup and irqsoff tracers both use the "display-graph" option, and
use it exactly the same way, move that option from the tracer options to the
main options and consolidate them.

b7f0c959ed tracing: Pass trace_array into trace_buffer_unlock_commit()
In preparation for having trace options be per instance, the trace_array
needs to be passed to the trace_buffer_unlock_commit(). The
trace_event_buffer_lock_reserve() already passes in the trace_event_file

Also added a "__init" to the boot up test event plus function tracing

5e2d5ef8ec ftrace: correct the counter increment for trace_buffer data
In ftrace_dump, for disabling buffer, iter.tr->trace_buffer.data is used.
But for enabling, iter.trace_buffer->data is used.
Even though, both point to same buffer, for readability, same convention

72917235fd tracing: Fix for non-continuous cpu ids
Currently exception occures due to access beyond buffer_iter

Below there is an example for such exception when we use

we allocate according to the max cpu id and not according to the

aabfa5f28f ftrace: Provide trace clock monotonic raw
Expose the NMI safe accessor to the monotonic raw clock to the
tracer. The mono clock was added with commit
1b3e5c0936. The advantage of the
monotonic raw clock is that it will advance more constantly than the
monotonic clock.

Imagine someone is trying to optimize a particular program to reduce
instructions executed for a given workload while minimizing the effect
on runtime. Also suppose that NTP is running and potentially making
larger adjustments to the monotonic clock. If NTP is adjusting the
monotonic clock to advance more rapidly, the program will appear to
use fewer instructions per second but run longer than if the monotonic
raw clock had been used. The total number of instructions observed
would be the same regardless of the clock source used, but how it's
attributed to time would be affected.

Conversely if NTP is adjusting the monotonic clock to advance more
slowly, the program will appear to use more instructions per second
but run more quickly. Of course there are many sources that can cause
jitter in performance measurements on modern processors, but let's
remove NTP from the list.

The monotonic raw clock can also be useful for tracing early boot,
e.g. when debugging issues with NTP.

eeee78cf77 Some clean ups and small fixes, but the biggest change is the addition
of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints.
 
 Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called
 __print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be
 displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the
 TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that
 user space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data
 and express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT()
 macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty
 much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's
 because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values
 by the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the
 format file, and this makes it useless for user space tools.
 
 The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings
 in the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is
 shown to user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently
 has this in its format file:
 
      __print_symbolic(REC->reason,
         { TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
         { TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
         { TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
         { TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
 
 After adding:
 
      TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
      TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
      TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
      TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
 
 Its format file will contain this:
 
      __print_symbolic(REC->reason,
         { 0, "flush on task switch" },
         { 1, "remote shootdown" },
         { 2, "local shootdown" },

3f3c73de77 This adds the new tracefs file system. This has been in linux-next for
more than one release, as I had it ready for the 4.0 merge window, but
 a last minute thing that needed to go into Linux first had to be done.
 That was that perf hard coded the file system number when reading
 /sys/kernel/debugfs/tracing directory making sure that the path had
 the debugfs mount # before it would parse the tracing file. This broke
 other use cases of perf, and the check is removed.
 
 Now when mounting /sys/kernel/debug, tracefs is automatically mounted
 in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing such that old tools will still see that
 path as expected. But now system admins can mount tracefs directly
 and not need to mount debugfs, which can expose security issues.
 A new directory is created when tracefs is configured such that
 system admins can now mount it separately (/sys/kernel/tracing).
 
 This branch is based off of Al Viro's vfs debugfs_automount branch
 at commit 163f9eb95a
 debugfs: Provide a file creation function that also takes an initial size
 to get the debugfs_create_automount() operation.
 I just noticed that Al rebased the pull to add his Signed-off-by to
 that commit, and the commit is now e59b4e9187.
 I did a git diff of those two and see they are the same. Only the
 latter has Al's SOB.

Add a enum_map file in the tracing directory to see what enums have been
saved to convert in the print fmt files.

As this requires the enum mapping to be persistent in memory, it is only
created if the new config option CONFIG_TRACE_ENUM_MAP_FILE is enabled.
This is for debugging and will increase the persistent memory footprint
of the kernel.

0c564a538a tracing: Add TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro to map enums to their values
Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or
__print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the
binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading
the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools
such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a
human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not
have access to what the ENUM is.

For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has:

 __print_symbolic(REC->reason,
    { TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
    { TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
    { TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
    { TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })

Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and
trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would
not be able to map it.

With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header
files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values:

By adding:

 TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
 TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
 TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
 TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);

 $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format
[...]
 __print_symbolic(REC->reason,
    { 0, "flush on task switch" },
    { 1, "remote shootdown" },
    { 2, "local shootdown" },
    { 3, "local mm shootdown" })

The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to
be modified to parse them.

7215853e98 tracing: Fix unmapping loop in tracing_mark_write
Commit 6edb2a8a38 introduced
an array map_pages that contains the addresses returned by
kmap_atomic. However, when unmapping those pages, map_pages[0]
is unmapped before map_pages[1], breaking the nesting requirement
as specified in the documentation for kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic.

This was caught by the highmem debug code present in kunmap_atomic.
Fix the loop to do the unmapping properly.

eae473581c tracing: Have mkdir and rmdir be part of tracefs
The tracing "instances" directory can create sub tracing buffers
with mkdir, and remove them with rmdir. As a mkdir will also create
all the files and directories that control the sub buffer the inode
mutexes need to be released before this is done, to avoid deadlocks.
It is better to let the tracing system unlock the inode mutexes before
calling the functions that create the files within the new directory
(or deletes the files from the one being destroyed).

Now that tracing has been converted over to tracefs, the tracefs file
system can be modified to accommodate this feature. It still releases
the locks, but the filesystem itself can take care of the ugly
business and let the user just do what it needs.

The tracing system now attaches a descriptor to the directory dentry
that can have userspace create or remove sub directories. If this
descriptor does not exist for a dentry, then that dentry can not be
used to create other directories. This descriptor holds a mkdir and
rmdir method that only takes a character string as an argument.

The tracefs file system will first make a copy of the dentry name
before releasing the locks. Then it will pass the copied name to the
methods. It is up to the tracing system that supplied the methods to
handle races with duplicate names and such as all the inode mutexes
would be released when the functions are called.

f76180bc07 tracing: Automatically mount tracefs on debugfs/tracing
As tools currently rely on the tracing directory in debugfs, we can not
just created a tracefs infrastructure and expect sysadmins to mount
the new tracefs to have their old tools work.

Instead, the debugfs tracing directory is still created and the tracefs
file system is mounted there when the debugfs filesystem is mounted.

No longer does the tracing infrastructure update the debugfs file system,
but instead interacts with the tracefs file system. But now, it still
appears to the user like nothing changed, except you also have the feature
of mounting just the tracing system without needing all of debugfs!

8434dc9340 tracing: Convert the tracing facility over to use tracefs
debugfs was fine for the tracing facility as a quick way to get
an interface. Now that tracing has matured, it should separate itself
from debugfs such that it can be mounted separately without needing
to mount all of debugfs with it. That is, users resist using tracing
because it requires mounting debugfs. Having tracing have its own file
system lets users get the features of tracing without needing to bring
in the rest of the kernel's debug infrastructure.

Another reason for tracefs is that debubfs does not support mkdir.
Currently, to create instances, one does a mkdir in the tracing/instance
directory. This is implemented via a hack that forces debugfs to do
something it is not intended on doing. By converting over to tracefs, this
hack can be removed and mkdir can be properly implemented. This patch does
not address this yet, but it lays the ground work for that to be done.

7eeafbcab4 tracing: Separate out initializing top level dir from instances
The top level trace array is treated a little different than the
instances, as it has to deal with more of the general tracing.
The tr->dir is the tracing directory, which is an immutable
dentry, where as the tr->dir of instances are the dentry that
was created, and can be destroyed later. These should have different
functions accessing them.

As only tracing_init_dentry() deals with the top level array, fold
the code for it into that function, and remove the trace_init_dentry_tr()
that was also used by the instances to get their directory dentry.

Add a tracing_get_dentry() to just get the tracing dir entry for
instances as well as the top level array.

Taking the global mutex "trace_types_lock" in the trace_pipe files
causes a bottle neck as most the pipe files can be read per cpu
and there's no reason to serialize them.

The current_trace variable was given a ref count and it can not
change when the ref count is not zero. Opening the trace_pipe
files will up the ref count (and decremented on close), so that
the lock no longer needs to be taken when accessing the
current_trace variable.

0daa230296 tracing: Add tp_printk cmdline to have tracepoints go to printk()
Add the kernel command line tp_printk option that will have tracepoints
that are active sent to printk() as well as to the trace buffer.

Passing "tp_printk" will activate this. To turn it off, the sysctl
/proc/sys/kernel/tracepoint_printk can have '0' echoed into it. Note,
this only works if the cmdline option is used. Echoing 1 into the sysctl
file without the cmdline option will have no affect.

Note, this is a dangerous option. Having high frequency tracepoints send
their data to printk() can possibly cause a live lock. This is another
reason why this is only active if the command line option is used.

Enabling tracepoints at boot up can be very useful. The tracepoint
can be initialized right after RCU has been. There's no need to
wait for the early_initcall() to be called. That's too late for some
things that can use tracepoints for debugging. Move the logic to
enable tracepoints out of the initcalls and into init/main.c to
right after rcu_init().

This also allows trace_printk() to be used early too.

350e4f4985 This code is a fork from the trace-3.19 pull as it needed the trace_seq
clean ups from that branch.
 
 This code solves the issue of performing stack dumps from NMI context.
 The issue is that printk() is not safe from NMI context as if the NMI
 were to trigger when a printk() was being performed, the NMI could
 deadlock from the printk() internal locks. This has been seen in practice.
 
 With lots of review from Petr Mladek, this code went through several
 iterations, and we feel that it is now at a point of quality to be
 accepted into mainline.
 
 Here's what is contained in this patch set:
 
  o Creates a "seq_buf" generic buffer utility that allows a descriptor
    to be passed around where functions can write their own "printk()"
    formatted strings into it. The generic version was pulled out of
    the trace_seq() code that was made specifically for tracing.
 
  o The seq_buf code was change to model the seq_file code. I have
    a patch (not included for 3.19) that converts the seq_file.c code
    over to use seq_buf.c like the trace_seq.c code does. This was done
    to make sure that seq_buf.c is compatible with seq_file.c. I may
    try to get that patch in for 3.20.
 
  o The seq_buf.c file was moved to lib/ to remove it from being dependent
    on CONFIG_TRACING.
 
  o The printk() was updated to allow for a per_cpu "override" of
    the internal calls. That is, instead of writing to the console, a call
    to printk() may do something else. This made it easier to allow the
    NMI to change what printk() does in order to call dump_stack() without
    needing to update that code as well.
 
  o Finally, the dump_stack from all CPUs via NMI code was converted to
    use the seq_buf code. The caller to trigger the NMI code would wait
    till all the NMIs finished, and then it would print the seq_buf
    data to the console safely from a non NMI context.

Pull nmi-safe seq_buf printk update from Steven Rostedt:
 "This code is a fork from the trace-3.19 pull as it needed the
  trace_seq clean ups from that branch.

  This code solves the issue of performing stack dumps from NMI context.
  The issue is that printk() is not safe from NMI context as if the NMI
  were to trigger when a printk() was being performed, the NMI could
  deadlock from the printk() internal locks.  This has been seen in
  practice.

  With lots of review from Petr Mladek, this code went through several
  iterations, and we feel that it is now at a point of quality to be
  accepted into mainline.

  Here's what is contained in this patch set:

   - Creates a "seq_buf" generic buffer utility that allows a descriptor
     to be passed around where functions can write their own "printk()"
     formatted strings into it.  The generic version was pulled out of

   - The seq_buf code was change to model the seq_file code.  I have a

     wait till all the NMIs finished, and then it would print the
     seq_buf data to the console safely from a non NMI context

  One added bonus is that this code also makes the NMI dump stack work
  on PREEMPT_RT kernels.  As printk() includes sleeping locks on
  PREEMPT_RT, printk() only writes to console if the console does not
  use any rt_mutex converted spin locks.  Which a lot do"

1dd7dcb6ea There was a lot of clean ups and minor fixes. One of those clean ups was
to the trace_seq code. It also removed the return values to the
 trace_seq_*() functions and use trace_seq_has_overflowed() to see if
 the buffer filled up or not. This is similar to work being done to the
 seq_file code as well in another tree.
 
 Some of the other goodies include:
 
  o Added some "!" (NOT) logic to the tracing filter.
 
  o Fixed the frame pointer logic to the x86_64 mcount trampolines
 
  o Added the logic for dynamic trampolines on !CONFIG_PREEMPT systems.
    That is, the ftrace trampoline can be dynamically allocated
    and be called directly by functions that only have a single hook
    to them.

3558a5ac50 tracing: Truncated output is better than nothing
The initial reason for this patch is that I noticed that:

	if (len > TRACE_BUF_SIZE)

is off by one.  In this code, if len == TRACE_BUF_SIZE, then it means we
have truncated the last character off the output string.  If we truncate
two or more characters then we exit without printing.

After some discussion, we decided that printing truncated data is better
than not printing at all so we should just use vscnprintf() and remove
the test entirely.  Also I have updated memcpy() to copy the NUL char
instead of setting the NUL in a separate step.
