The new work with converting the trace hooks over to markers broke the

Pekka Paalanen bd8ac686c7 ftrace: mmiotrace, updates
here is a patch that makes mmiotrace work almost well within the tracing
framework. The patch applies on top of my previous patch. I have my own
output formatting in place now.

Summary of changes:
- fix the NULL dereference that was due to not calling tracing_reset()
- add print_line() callback into struct tracer
- implement print_line() for mmiotrace, producing up-to-spec text
- add my output header, but that is not really called in the right place
- rewrote the main structs in mmiotrace
- added two new trace entry types: TRACE_MMIO_RW and TRACE_MMIO_MAP
- made some functions in trace.c non-static
- check current==NULL in tracing_generic_entry_update()
- fix(?) comparison in trace_seq_printf()

Things seem to work fine except a few issues. Markers (text lines injected
into mmiotrace log) are missing, I did not feel hacking them in before we
have variable length entries. My output header is printed only for 'trace'
file, but not 'trace_pipe'. For some reason, despite my quick fix,
iter->trace is NULL in print_trace_line() when called from 'trace_pipe'
file, which means I don't get proper output formatting.

I only tried by loading nouveau.ko, which just detects the card, and that
is traced fine. I didn't try further. Map, two reads and unmap. Works
perfectly.

I am missing the information about overflows, I'd prefer to have a
counter for lost events. I didn't try, but I guess currently there is no
way of knowning when it overflows?

So, not too far from being fully operational, it seems :-)
And looking at the diffstat, there also is some 700-900 lines of user space
code that just became obsolete.

because mcount calls spin_lock can cripple the system.

Steven Rostedt d05cdb25d8 ftrace: fix dynamic ftrace selftest
With the adding of the configuration changes in the Makefile to prevent
tracing of functions in the ftrace code, all tracing of all the ftrace
code has been removed. Unfortunately, one of the selftests, relied on
a function to be traced. With the new change, the function was no longer
traced and the test failed.

This patch separates out the test function into its own file so that
we can add the "-pg" flag to the compilation of that function and the
adding of the mcount call to that function.

Steven Rostedt 6fb44b717c ftrace: add trace_function api for other tracers to use
A new check was added in the ftrace function that wont trace if the CPU
trace buffer is disabled.  Unfortunately, other tracers used ftrace() to
write to the buffer after they disabled it. The new disable check makes
these calls into a nop.

This patch changes the __ftrace that is called without the check into a
new api for the other tracers to use, called "trace_function". The other
tracers use this interface instead when the trace CPU buffer is already
disabled.

Steven Rostedt b3806b4316 ftrace: user run time file reading
This patch creates a file called trace_pipe in the tracing
debug directory. This file is a consumer of the trace buffers.
This means that reads of this file consumes the entries from
the trace buffers so that they will not be read a second time,
as contrast to the static buffers latency_trace and trace.

Reading from the trace_pipe will remove the entries from trace
and latency_trace too.

The advantage that trace_pipe has is that it can record live
traces. It will block when there is nothing in the buffer,
and read the entries as they are entered.  An EOF happens when
tracing is disabled (tracing_enabled = 0).

Steven Rostedt bc0c38d139 ftrace: latency tracer infrastructure
This patch adds the latency tracer infrastructure. This patch
does not add anything that will select and turn it on, but will
be used by later patches.

If it were to be compiled, it would add the following files
to the debugfs:

 The root tracing directory:

  /debugfs/tracing/

This patch also adds the following files:

  available_tracers
     list of available tracers. Currently no tracers are
     available. Looking into this file only shows
     "none" which is used to unregister all tracers.

  current_tracer
     The trace that is currently active. Empty on start up.
     To switch to a tracer simply echo one of the tracers that
     are listed in available_tracers:

   example: (used with later patches)

      echo function > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer

     To disable the tracer:

       echo disable > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer

  tracing_enabled
     echoing "1" into this file starts the ftrace function tracing
      (if sysctl kernel.ftrace_enabled=1)
     echoing "0" turns it off.

  latency_trace
      This file is readonly and holds the result of the trace.

  trace
      This file outputs a easier to read version of the trace.

  iter_ctrl
      Controls the way the output of traces look.
      So far there's two controls:
        echoing in "symonly" will only show the kallsyms variables
            without the addresses (if kallsyms was configured)
        echoing in "verbose" will change the output to show
            a lot more data, but not very easy to understand by
            humans.
        echoing in "nosymonly" turns off symonly.
        echoing in "noverbose" turns off verbose.
