maintainerPATCH 1/5 tracing: Fix function timing profiler to initialize hashtable
From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <[email protected]>
Since the new fgraph requires to initialize fgraph_ops.ops.func_hash before calling register_ftrace_graph(), initialize it with default (tracing all functions) parameter.

In reply to Steven RostedtFrom: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <[email protected]>
To clarify what will be expected on ftrace_regs, add a comment to the architecture independent definition of the ftrace_regs.

maintainerPATCH 3/5 fgraph: Use fgraph data to store subtime for profiler
In reply to Steven RostedtFrom: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>
Instead of having the "subtime" for the function profiler in the infrastructure ftrace_ret_stack structure, have it use the fgraph data reserve and retrieve functions.
This will keep the limited shadow stack from wasting 8 bytes for something that is seldom used.

maintainerPATCH 4/5 ftrace: Use a running sleeptime instead of saving on shadow stack
In reply to Steven RostedtFrom: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>
The fgraph "sleep-time" option tells the function graph tracer and the profiler whether to include the time a function "sleeps" (is scheduled off the CPU) in its duration for the function. By default it is true, which means the duration of a function is calculated by the timestamp of when the function was entered to the timestamp of when it exits.
If the "sleep-time" option is disabled, it needs to remove the time that the task was not running on the CPU during the function. Currently it is done in a sched_switch tracepoint probe where it moves the "calltime" (time of entry of the function) forward by the sleep time calculated. It updates all the calltime in the shadow stack.
This is time consuming for those users of the function graph tracer that does not care about the sleep time. Instead, add a "ftrace_sleeptime" to the task_struct that gets the sleep time added each time the task wakes up. Then have the function entry save the current "ftrace_sleeptime" and on function exit, move the calltime forward by the difference of the current "ftrace_sleeptime" from the saved sleeptime.
This removes one dependency of "calltime" needed to be on the shadow stack. It also simplifies the code that removes the sleep time of functions.
TODO: Only enable the sched_switch tracepoint when this is needed.

maintainerPATCH 5/5 ftrace: Have calltime be saved in the fgraph storage
In reply to Steven RostedtFrom: Steven Rostedt <[email protected]>
The calltime field in the shadow stack frame is only used by the function graph tracer and profiler. But now that there's other users of the function graph infrastructure, this adds overhead and wastes space on the shadow stack. Move the calltime to the fgraph data storage, where the function graph and profiler entry functions will save it in its own graph storage and retrieve it in its exit functions.
