cover ftrace: kill the dead code in trace_sched_switch.c

Quoted 4 lines · Oleg Nesterov

This motivated me to try to find something else unused. And it seems that almost all code in kernel/trace/trace_sched_switch.c is dead? Hmm, and probably even event_context_switch... I'll recheck and send the patch.

No, event_context_switch can't simply go away. But afaics the only user is tracing_sched_switch_trace(), and the only caller of this function is probe_wakeup_sched_switch(). Looks a bit strange.

After this patch we should probably move tracing_sched_switch_trace() and tracing_sched_wakeup_trace() from trace_sched_switch.c to trace_sched_wakeup.c and make them static. And perhaps we can also move the rest of this code somewhere else and rm this file...

Oleg.

PATCH 1/2 ftrace: Kill tracing_{start,stop}_sched_switch_record() and tracing_sched_switch_assign_trace()

tracing_{start,stop}_sched_switch_record() have no callers since 87d80de2800d "tracing: Remove obsolete sched_switch tracer".

The last caller of tracing_sched_switch_assign_trace() was removed by 30dbb20e68e6 "tracing: Remove boot tracer".

PATCH 2/2 ftrace: Kill the dead code in probe_sched_switch() and probe_sched_wakeup()

In reply to Oleg Nesterov

After the previous patch it is clear that "tracer_enabled" can never be true, we can remove the "if (tracer_enabled)" code in probe_sched_switch() and probe_sched_wakeup(). Plus we can obviously remove tracer_enabled, ctx_trace, and sched_stopped as well.
