PATCH 2/12 tracing: Use trace_seq_puts()/trace_seq_putc() where possible

From: "zhangwei(Jovi)" <[email protected]>

For string without format specifiers, use trace_seq_puts() or trace_seq_putc().

Link http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] open here

Signed-off-by zhangwei(Jovi) <[email protected]>

[ fixed a trace_seq_putc(s, " ") to trace_seq_putc(s, ' ') ]

PATCH 6/12 tracing/perf: Move the PERF_MAX_TRACE_SIZE check into perf_trace_buf_prepare()

From: Oleg Nesterov <[email protected]>

Every perf_trace_buf_prepare() caller does WARN_ONCE(size > PERF_MAX_TRACE_SIZE, message) and "message" is almost the same.

Shift this WARN_ONCE() into perf_trace_buf_prepare(). This changes the meaning of _ONCE, but I think this is fine.

PATCH 7/12 tracing/kprobe: Wait for disabling all running kprobe handlers

Link http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20130709093526.20138.93100.stgit@mhiramat-M0-7522 open here

From: Masami Hiramatsu <[email protected]>

Wait for disabling all running kprobe handlers when a kprobe event is disabled, since the caller, trace_remove_event_call() supposes that a removing event is disabled completely by disabling the event.
With this change, ftrace can ensure that there is no running event handlers after disabling it.

PATCH 8/12 tracing: Fix error handling to ensure instances can always be removed

From: Alexander Z Lam <[email protected]>

Remove debugfs directories for tracing instances during creation if an error occurs causing the trace_array for that instance to not be added to ftrace_trace_arrays. If the directory continues to exist after the error, it cannot be removed because the respective trace_array is not in ftrace_trace_arrays.

PATCH 10/12 tracing: Add ref_data to function and fgraph tracer structs

From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <[email protected]>

The selftest for function and function graph tracers are defined as __init, as they are only executed at boot up. The "tracer" structs that are associated to those tracers are not setup as __init as they are used after boot. To stop mismatch warnings, those structures need to be annotated with __ref_data.

Currently, the tracer structures are defined to __read_mostly, as they do not really change. But in the future they should be converted to consts, but that will take a little work because they have a "next" pointer that gets updated when they are registered. That will have to wait till the next major release.

PATCH 11/12 tracing: Simplify the iteration logic in f_start/f_next

From: Oleg Nesterov <[email protected]>

f_next() looks overcomplicated, and it is not strictly correct even if this doesn't matter.

Say, FORMAT_FIELD_SEPERATOR should not return NULL (means EOF) if trace_get_fields() returns an empty list, we should simply advance to FORMAT_PRINTFMT as we do when we find the end of list.

1. Change f_next() to return "struct list_head *" rather than "ftrace_event_field *", and change f_show() to do list_entry().

This simplifies the code a bit, only f_show() needs to know about ftrace_event_field, and f_next() can play with ->prev directly

2. Change f_next() to not play with ->prev / return inside the switch() statement. It can simply set node = head/common_head, the prev-or-advance-to-the-next-magic below does all work.

While at it. f_start() looks overcomplicated too. I don't think *pos == 0 makes sense as a separate case, just change this code to do "while" instead of "do/while".

The patch also moves f_start() down, close to f_stop(). This is purely cosmetic, just to make the locking added by the next patch more clear/visible.

PATCH 12/12 tracing: Do not (ab)use trace_seq in event_id_read()

From: Oleg Nesterov <[email protected]>

event_id_read() has no reason to kmalloc "struct trace_seq" (more than PAGE_SIZE!), it can use a small buffer instead.

Note: "if (*ppos) return 0" looks strange and even wrong, simple_read_from_buffer() handles ppos != 0 case corrrectly.

And it seems that almost every user of trace_seq in this file should be converted too. Unless you use seq_open(), trace_seq buys nothing compared to the raw buffer, but it needs a bit more memory and code.
