• 0a5d64901   tracing: Documentation / sample code fixes for tracepoints ... Browse Code »

  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.

  Impact: clean up

  The macros TPPROTO, TPARGS, TPFMT, TPRAWFMT, and TPCMD all look a bit
  ugly. This patch adds an underscore to their names.

  None of these (init|exit) functions is called from other functions which
  is outside the kernel module mechanism or kernel itself, so mark them as
  {static|__init|__exit}.

• 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.

  Impact: fix a bug in sample tracepoints

  Need a tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() before the end of exit() to
  make sure every probe callers have exited the non preemptible section
  and thus are not executing the probe code anymore.
