  • b326e9560   hw-breakpoints: Use overflow handler instead of the event callback ... Browse Code »

    struct perf_event::event callback was called when a breakpoint
    triggers. But this is a rather opaque callback, pretty
    tied-only to the breakpoint API and not really integrated into perf
    as it triggers even when we don't overflow.

    We prefer to use overflow_handler() as it fits into the perf events
    rules, being called only when we overflow.

  • dd1853c3f   hw-breakpoints: Use struct perf_event_attr to define kernel breakpoints ... Browse Code »

    Kernel breakpoints are created using functions in which we pass
    breakpoint parameters as individual variables: address, length
    and type.

    Although it fits well for x86, this just does not scale across
    architectures that may support this api later as these may have
    more or different needs. Pass in a perf_event_attr structure
    instead because it is meant to evolve as much as possible into
    a generic hardware breakpoint parameter structure.

  • 605bfaee9   hw-breakpoints: Simplify error handling in breakpoint creation requests ... Browse Code »

    This simplifies the error handling when we create a breakpoint.
    We don't need to check the NULL return value corner case anymore
    since we have improved perf_event_create_kernel_counter() to
    always return an error code in the failure case.

  • d0b6e04a4   tracing/events: Move TRACE_SYSTEM outside of include guard ... Browse Code »

    If TRACE_INCLDUE_FILE is defined,
    will be included and compiled, otherwise it will be

    So TRACE_SYSTEM should be defined outside of #if proctection,
    just like TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE.

    Imaging this scenario:

    #include
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == foo
    ...
    #include
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == bar
    ...
    #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
    #include
    -> TRACE_SYSTEM == bar !!!

    and then bar.h will be included and compiled.

  • 71e1c8ac4   tracing: update sample with TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE ... Browse Code »

    When creating trace events for ftrace, the header file with the TRACE_EVENT
    macros must also have a macro called TRACE_SYSTEM. This macro describes
    the name of the system the TRACE_EVENTS are defined for. It also doubles
    as a way for the define_trace.h file to include the file that included
    it.

    For example:

    in irq.h

    #define TRACE_SYSTEM irq

    [...]

    #include

    The define_trace will use TRACE_SYSTEM to include irq.h. But if the name
    of the trace system does not match the name of the trace header file,
    one can override it with:

    Which will change define_trace.h to inclued foo_trace.h instead of foo.h

    The sample comments this, but people that use the sample code will more
    likely use the code and not read the comments. This patch changes the
    sample code to use the TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE to better show developers how to
    use it.

    [ Impact: make sample less confusing to developers ]

    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.

  • 7e066fb87   tracepoints: add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE() ... Browse Code »

    Impact: API *CHANGE*. Must update all tracepoint users.

    Add DEFINE_TRACE() to tracepoints to let them declare the tracepoint
    structure in a single spot for all the kernel. It helps reducing memory
    consumption, especially when declaring a lot of tracepoints, e.g. for
    kmalloc tracing.

    *API CHANGE WARNING*: now, DECLARE_TRACE() must be used in headers for
    tracepoint declarations rather than DEFINE_TRACE(). This is the sane way
    to do it. The name previously used was misleading.

    Updates scheduler instrumentation to follow this API change.
