7104f300c5 ftrace: type cast filter+verifier
The mmiotrace map had a bug that would typecast the entry from
the trace to the wrong type. That is a known danger of C typecasts,
there's absolutely zero checking done on them.

Help that problem a bit by using a GCC extension to implement a
type filter that restricts the types that a trace record can be
cast into, and by adding a dynamic check (in debug mode) to verify
the type of the entry.

This patch adds a macro to assign all entries of ftrace using the type
of the variable and checking the entry id. The typecasts are now done
in the macro for only those types that it knows about, which should
be all the types that are allowed to be read from the tracer.

d769041f86 ring_buffer: implement new locking
The old "lock always" scheme had issues with lockdep, and was not very
efficient anyways.

This patch does a new design to be partially lockless on writes.
Writes will add new entries to the per cpu pages by simply disabling
interrupts. When a write needs to go to another page than it will
grab the lock.

A new "read page" has been added so that the reader can pull out a page
from the ring buffer to read without worrying about the writer writing over
it. This allows us to not take the lock for all reads. The lock is
now only taken when a read needs to go to a new page.

This is far from lockless, and interrupts still need to be disabled,
but it is a step towards a more lockless solution, and it also
solves a lot of the issues that were noticed by the first conversion
of ftrace to the ring buffers.

Note: the ring_buffer_{un}lock API has been removed.

2c4f035f6c tracing/ftrace: change the type of the print_line callback
We need a kind of disambiguation when a print_line callback
returns 0.

_There is not enough space to print all the entry.
 Please flush the seq and retry.
_I can't handle this type of entry

This patch changes the type of this callback for better information.

Also some changes have been made in this V2.

_ Only relay to default functions after the print_line callback fails.
_ This patch doesn't fix the issue with the broken pipe (see patch 2/4 for that)

Some things are still in discussion:

_ Find better names for the enum print_line_t values
_ Change the type of print_trace_line into boolean.

Patches to change that can be sent later.

777e208d40 ftrace: take advantage of variable length entries
Now that the underlining ring buffer for ftrace now hold variable length
entries, we can take advantage of this by only storing the size of the
actual event into the buffer. This happens to increase the number of
entries in the buffer dramatically.

We can also get rid of the "trace_cont" operation, but I'm keeping that
until we have no more users. Some of the ftrace tracers can now change
their code to adapt to this new feature.

7a8e76a382 tracing: unified trace buffer
This is a unified tracing buffer that implements a ring buffer that
hopefully everyone will eventually be able to use.

The events recorded into the buffer have the following structure:

  struct ring_buffer_event {
	u32 type:2, len:3, time_delta:27;
	u32 array[];
  };

The minimum size of an event is 8 bytes. All events are 4 byte
aligned inside the buffer.

There are 4 types (all internal use for the ring buffer, only
the data type is exported to the interface users).

 RINGBUF_TYPE_PADDING: this type is used to note extra space at the end
	of a buffer page.

 RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_EXTENT: This type is used when the time between events
	is greater than the 27 bit delta can hold. We add another
	32 bits, and record that in its own event (8 byte size).

 RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP: (Not implemented yet). This will hold data to
	help keep the buffer timestamps in sync.

RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA: The event actually holds user data.

The "len" field is only three bits. Since the data must be
4 byte aligned, this field is shifted left by 2, giving a
max length of 28 bytes. If the data load is greater than 28
bytes, the first array field holds the full length of the
data load and the len field is set to zero.

Example, data size of 7 bytes:

	type = RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA
	len = 2
	time_delta: <time-stamp> - <prev_event-time-stamp>
	array[0..1]: <7 bytes of data> <1 byte empty>

This event is saved in 12 bytes of the buffer.

An event with 82 bytes of data:

	type = RINGBUF_TYPE_DATA
	len = 0
	time_delta: <time-stamp> - <prev_event-time-stamp>
	array[0]: 84 (Note the alignment)
	array[1..14]: <82 bytes of data> <2 bytes empty>

The above event is saved in 92 bytes (if my math is correct).
82 bytes of data, 2 bytes empty, 4 byte header, 4 byte length.

Do not reference the above event struct directly. Use the following
functions to gain access to the event table, since the
ring_buffer_event structure may change in the future.

ring_buffer_event_length(event): get the length of the event.
	This is the size of the memory used to record this
	event, and not the size of the data pay load.

ring_buffer_time_delta(event): get the time delta of the event
	This returns the delta time stamp since the last event.
	Note: Even though this is in the header, there should
		be no reason to access this directly, accept
		for debugging.

ring_buffer_event_data(event): get the data from the event
	This is the function to use to get the actual data
	from the event. Note, it is only a pointer to the
	data inside the buffer. This data must be copied to
	another location otherwise you risk it being written
	over in the buffer.

ring_buffer_lock: A way to lock the entire buffer.
ring_buffer_unlock: unlock the buffer.

ring_buffer_alloc: create a new ring buffer. Can choose between
	overwrite or consumer/producer mode. Overwrite will
	overwrite old data, where as consumer producer will
	throw away new data if the consumer catches up with the
	producer.  The consumer/producer is the default.

ring_buffer_free: free the ring buffer.

ring_buffer_resize: resize the buffer. Changes the size of each cpu
	buffer. Note, it is up to the caller to provide that
	the buffer is not being used while this is happening.
	This requirement may go away but do not count on it.

ring_buffer_lock_reserve: locks the ring buffer and allocates an
	entry on the buffer to write to.
ring_buffer_unlock_commit: unlocks the ring buffer and commits it to
	the buffer.

ring_buffer_write: writes some data into the ring buffer.

ring_buffer_peek: Look at a next item in the cpu buffer.
ring_buffer_consume: get the next item in the cpu buffer and
	consume it. That is, this function increments the head
	pointer.

ring_buffer_read_start: Start an iterator of a cpu buffer.
	For now, this disables the cpu buffer, until you issue
	a finish. This is just because we do not want the iterator
	to be overwritten. This restriction may change in the future.
	But note, this is used for static reading of a buffer which
	is usually done "after" a trace. Live readings would want
	to use the ring_buffer_consume above, which will not
	disable the ring buffer.

ring_buffer_read_finish: Finishes the read iterator and reenables
	the ring buffer.

ring_buffer_iter_peek: Look at the next item in the cpu iterator.
ring_buffer_read: Read the iterator and increment it.
ring_buffer_iter_reset: Reset the iterator to point to the beginning
	of the cpu buffer.
ring_buffer_iter_empty: Returns true if the iterator is at the end
	of the cpu buffer.

ring_buffer_size: returns the size in bytes of each cpu buffer.
	Note, the real size is this times the number of CPUs.

ring_buffer_reset_cpu: Sets the cpu buffer to empty
ring_buffer_reset: sets all cpu buffers to empty

ring_buffer_swap_cpu: swaps a cpu buffer from one buffer with a
	cpu buffer of another buffer. This is handy when you
	want to take a snap shot of a running trace on just one
	cpu. Having a backup buffer, to swap with facilitates this.
	Ftrace max latencies use this.

ring_buffer_empty: Returns true if the ring buffer is empty.
ring_buffer_empty_cpu: Returns true if the cpu buffer is empty.

ring_buffer_record_disable: disable all cpu buffers (read only)
ring_buffer_record_disable_cpu: disable a single cpu buffer (read only)
ring_buffer_record_enable: enable all cpu buffers.
ring_buffer_record_enabl_cpu: enable a single cpu buffer.

ring_buffer_entries: The number of entries in a ring buffer.
ring_buffer_overruns: The number of entries removed due to writing wrap.

ring_buffer_time_stamp: Get the time stamp used by the ring buffer
ring_buffer_normalize_time_stamp: normalize the ring buffer time stamp
	into nanosecs.

I still need to implement the GTOD feature. But we need support from
the cpu frequency infrastructure.  But this can be done at a later
time without affecting the ring buffer interface.

Add the boot/initcall tracer.

It's primary purpose is to be able to trace the initcalls.

It is intended to be used with scripts/bootgraph.pl after some small

Note that it is not active after its init. To avoid tracing (and so
crashing) before the whole tracing engine init, you have to explicitly
call start_boot_trace() after do_pre_smp_initcalls() to enable it.

aa5d9151f7 tracing/fastboot: add a script to visualize the kernel boot process / time
When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize
what is going on at which time. In addition, with the fastboot asynchronous
initcall level, it's very valuable to see which initcall gets run where
and when.

This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be
shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change
to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall
(so that the script can work out the parallelism).

1b7ae37c03 markers: bit-field is not thread-safe nor smp-safe
bit-field is not thread-safe nor smp-safe.

struct marker_entry.rcu_pending is not protected by any lock
in rcu-callback free_old_closure().
so we must turn it into a safe type.

detail:

I suppose rcu_pending and ptype are store in struct marker_entry.tmp1

free_old_closure() side:           change ptype side:

                                |  load struct marker_entry.tmp1
--------------------------------|--------------------------------
                                |  change ptype bit in tmp1
load struct marker_entry.tmp1   |
change rcu_pending bit in tmp1  |
store tmp1                      |
--------------------------------|--------------------------------
                                |  store tmp1

now this result equals that free_old_closure() do not change rcu_pending
bit, bug! This bug will cause redundant rcu_barrier_sched() called.
not too harmful.

----- corresponding:

free_old_closure() side:           change ptype side:

load struct marker_entry.tmp1   |
--------------------------------|--------------------------------
                                |  load struct marker_entry.tmp1
change rcu_pending bit in tmp1  |
                                |  change ptype bit in tmp1
                                |  store tmp1
--------------------------------|--------------------------------
store tmp1                      |

now this result equals that change ptype side do not change ptype
bit, bug! this bug cause marker_probe_cb() access to invalid memory.

ed86a59071 markers: re-enable fast batch registration
Lai Jiangshan discovered a reentrancy issue with markers and fixed it by
adding synchronize_sched() calls at each registration/unregistraiton.

It works, but it removes the ability to do batch
registration/unregistration and can cause registration of ~100 markers
to take about 30 seconds on a loaded machine (synchronize_sched() is
much slower on such workloads).

This patch implements a version of the fix which won't slow down marker batch
registration/unregistration. It also go back to the original non-synchronized
reg/unreg.

d74185ed27 markers: fix unregister bug and reenter bug
unregister bug:

codes using makers are typically calling marker_probe_unregister()
and then destroying the data that marker_probe_func needs(or
unloading this module). This is bug when the corresponding
marker_probe_func is still running(on other cpus),
it is using the destroying/ed data.

we should call synchronize_sched() after marker_update_probes().

reenter bug:

marker_probe_register(), marker_probe_unregister() and
marker_probe_unregister_private_data() are not reentrant safe
functions. these 3 functions release markers_mutex and then
require it again and do "entry->oldptr = old; ...", but entry->oldptr
maybe is using now for these 3 functions may reenter when markers_mutex
is released.

we use synchronize_sched() instead of call_rcu_sched() to fix
this bug. actually we can do:
"
if (entry->rcu_pending)
		rcu_barrier_sched();
"
after require markers_mutex again. but synchronize_sched()
is better and simpler. For these 3 functions are not critical path.

[   49.440118]  =======================

It is because ftrace_modify_code() calls copy_to_user and
copy_from_user.
These functions have been inserted after guessing that there
couldn't be any race condition but copy_[to/from]_user might
sleep and __ftrace_update_code is called with local_irq_saved.

These function have been inserted since this commit:
d5e92e8978fd2574e415dc2792c5eb592978243d:
"ftrace: x86 use copy from user function"

05736a427f ftrace: warn on failure to disable mcount callers
With the recent updates to ftrace, there should not be any failures when
modifying the code. If there is, then we need to warn about it.

This patch has a cleaned up version of the code that I used to discover
that the weak symbols were causing failures.

43a15386c4 tracing/ftrace: replace none tracer by nop tracer
Replace "none" tracer by the recently created "nop" tracer.
Both are pretty similar except that nop accepts TRACE_PRINT
or TRACE_SPECIAL entries.

And as a consequence, changing the size of the ring buffer now
requires that tracing has already been disabled.

fb1b6d8b51 ftrace: add nop tracer
A no-op tracer which can serve two purposes:

 1. A template for development of a new tracer.
 2. A convenient way to see ftrace_printk() calls without
    an irrelevant trace making the output messy.

644f991d4b ftrace: fix unlocking of hash
This must be brown paper bag week for Steven Rostedt!

While working on ftrace for PPC, I discovered that the hash locking done
when CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD is not set, is totally incorrect.

With a cut and paste error, I had the hash lock macro to lock for both
hash_lock _and_ hash_unlock!

This bug did not affect x86 since this bug was introduced when
CONFIG_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD was added to x86.
