Although dmesg logs and wireshark network traces can be
helpful, being able to dynamically enable/disable tracepoints
(in this case via the kernel ftrace mechanism) can also be
helpful in more quickly debugging problems, and more
selectively tracing the events related to the bug report.
This patch adds 12 ftrace tracepoints to cifs.ko for SMB3 events
in some obvious locations. Subsequent patches will add more
as needed.
Example use:
trace-cmd record -e cifs
trace-cmd show
Various trace events can be filtered. See:
trace-cmd list | grep cifs
for the current list of cifs tracepoints.
Sample output (from mount and writing to a file):
